PARIS PAPERS. ~: I From the Journal des Debats.l hEss A, A Y 10.—The following is a literal translation of the laconk note which the G'hand Vizier, 6 halib Pacha, addressed to Lord Strang ford, to complain of the political conduct of Eng land. It would be of no use to add, that at this period the influence of Lord Strangford at. the Porte must have been very weak. Since then, however, circumstances have changed a little in :favour of his Lordship. Literal Translation of a Memorandum delivered on April 9, 1824, by the Grand Vizir, Ghalib Paella, to the First English Dragoman, S. Berto Pisani, for his Excellency Lord Strangford • " The Ambassador, our 'friend, never ceases saying to the Sublime Porte, that the laws of his country do not allow the Court of London to prevent the English from aiding the Greek rebels in • making war against the Mussulmans, and that it bas..no power to punish these acts of glaring injustice. If any person endowed with less -sagacity than our friend, the Ambassador, heaLadvanced such an assertion, we should have snppesed it had been done with the intention of knowing how far our credulity could extend. It is too absurd to say that any Government whatever, however administered, and what ever may be its laws, has not the power of preventing its own subjects from making war according to their own plea eure, and violating treaties which exist between their Govern ment and another Power. The administration and internal laws of England have a reference only to the English. The regulations of a State cannot be quoted 'as a justification of -the Improper conduct of the subjects of any State whatever ugninSt any other Power : these things must be regulated by in.- ternationai law, which forms the basis of all relations between . governments and nations, and not the laws or customs of any indi oidual state. Let us suppose (which God forbid) that a partof the sUbjeCts of (Preat Britain were in open . rebellion against the King, and that the .subjects of another Sovereign at peace, and on', friendly terms with Greet Britain, for example, thoseof the c , nblime. Porte, were to send them publicly succours of every ileseription, ammunition, money, provisions, and effective officers, would England admit .:as an excuse for such conduct, that the Porte had not aright e :or had not the power to controul slie improper conduct, of its subjects, because the laws of the country gave to every Mussulman the right of making war on roll those who did not profess the same faith. If these prin iples Ware admitted, what would Ise,the situation of one coun try with regard to another ? Nhat. general peace - which Eng land pretends to have so much at heart, would no longer de pend on treaties or on the laws of-nations. It would be at the anerßy IGnd, caprice of the passions-of the people. It would be • supposed that every thing was clone in preserving the appear ance of friendship, and.each Government would think it had done its duty in saying.to its neighbour, ." I am your very sin cere and disinterested friend.; be contented. with this assurance, and do not be displeased if my subjects go to cut the throats of vcurs." But does our friend the Ambassador. believe us de prived of common sense, when he pretends that his Govern ment has not the power to exercise a just controul over the •conduct of its subjects ? The English Government has this power, and hastened to use it when it was thought necessary to prev:!nt English vessels front ears ying a little corn • lo the Yurkish garrisons dying with hunger, and who at least rah-tined ur. the hunzanity of an ,aldfriend. The existence Of this power was clearly demonstrated then, and -the mi serable deatheof many Mussulmans proves it too well. If we. are at peace .with,Esigland, weehave certainly the right to demand that the Court of .Londorseshmild rot permit its Subjects to make war against us. If the Government disap proves of the hostile conduct of its subjects, why .do it not say to them once for, all, "..The Porte • has beeni es our friend fee ages; we have no complaints to make of it; and justice, there fore, requires it should have no cause to complain of us ; it fulfils its treaties, and therefore we must fulfil ours." Why does not the English Government use this languAge? Why has it never :aid one word-to stile English people which resembles friendship to ue ? Our friend, the Ambassador, is angry that we do not do every thing which he aslZes...Con he reasonably be astonished at. this? lenilseays uses svorsls full of friendship She us, but does he .believe that we are ignorant of all theonis eiief that his countrymeu.seek to do us ? Ilow are we to re coecile his words with their nctions? We cannot, in factocom neehend these contradictions. -Toe Salslime Porte asks what it osajostitied in asking, and what England is not justified in re fusing, namely, that the English should be forbidden hence forward to carry on hosWities against the Mussulmans, either in person or by sending money or ammunition (as they now do openly and publicly), or by establishing under the eyes of the (i.;vernment the-centre. , if their machinations against the interests of the Sublime Porte.

We are rot, Sire, os in 12311, when those who gloried in the title of your Majesty's subjects were in a slight degree implicated with sects, of whose extension and aim they were ignorant. We now know from reason and experience what are the ideas and plans of that race which this ago has ll:might forth, which never goes back from its object, :and never desists ; the members of which labour in silince, and have the art to colour their project in a thousand ways, and woo put on the appearance of lambs, but are most devourito , waives ; the people now know them, for they have heard their doctrines, and have had to suffer for three years the evils of the government of these cannibals.

But what have they to fear from the sentence, when so little profit has been made of :lose books, register s, and documents, found in their lodges and ecret associations ; w hen, in spite of th e i mmense number s of sectaries f oun d in Spain, there are no other punishments for them than those mild ones (proscription) ordered by . irsrtlinand - V. 1., on July 2, 1751 ?

It appears, however, almost impossible that the rejection of the law on the Rentes should not speedily be followed by some financial difficulties. Many speculators had made considerable purchases in. the public funds, under the idea that the project ••wonld:be adopted ; by converting the Rentes from fives to fours, means would have been provided a 4ailist this enormous quantity of Rentes, but all these calculations are destroyed, arid yet the 18 lance must be paid.- -All the money sent from different parts of Europe, to meet this grand financial operation, will be stopped in its passage; arid yet the mo ment will arrive when the purchases made before hand must be paid. The Denies, it is true, have riot fallen much; but if those who purchased are obliged to re-sell, it cannot be done without in curring a serious losS. Besides, the contemplated reductions in Russia, Italy, cud Gerniany, will probably sutler the same fate as those projected in France. The stock-jobbers have every where calculated on those European reductions, and they will not take place. Those who have spe. culated on these •immense operations will lose large sums; whether they will pay them or not is another- question. • [Front the Etoile of .r,:mtiay.] • PAays, JUNE 6.—The rejection of the law on the redUction of the interest of tie' voiles has made a great impression ict this capital, and we doubt not that the persons who, from regard to private interests, have been elra‘vn into the oppo sition, will now make serious refh:ctions on the consequences of the rejection, - The Quotidienne: joins in chorus with the Constitutionnel and the Courier _Francais in hymns of triumph to 'the majority of the Chamber of Peers.

FaczTowN, MA itcH is with the most heartfelt gratification we-draw the attention of the people of this Colony to the circular of the Riallt lion. Earl Rtithorst to the several Go vernors of our West India posses;ion. His Lordship, with the most humane and considerate attention for the wretched state or our numerous fellow creatures now living in slavt•ry, has there given such directions as spew the interest the subject, has long excited in the minds of his Majesty's Government ; and we hope will lead, at no very distant period, to the other necessary measures for the gradual emancipation of these suffering beings. We are aware that this is not the " work of a day,'' and that the cordial co operation of the Colonial Legislatures is abso lutely necessary to give due effect to these noble and liberal principles of humanity toward; the slaves, and ronsideration for their owners, which characterised the speech of Mr. Secretary Can ning, alluded to by Earl Bathurst, the R e p or t o f which we have unfortunately tots laid. The Loudon news from Cape Coast is to a later date titan our last accounts from that settlement, and tends to skiers that the war with the Ashantees is still de vastating the country. Ws E:cellettcy Sir Charles MacCarthy's arrival would strengthen the efforts of our friends there, and, we holly, b r ing the war to a successfal close. We have now been for some tune in daily expectation of Ids Tetut n, and from not having since heard from that settlement, have become mare than anxious respecting his long absence. From this state of suspense, we most fervently hope his Excel lency's desired presence before many days, relieve us. It is, however, gratifying to know, that during such period the affair , of the Colony have not materially suffered by the delay so much beyond the time his Excellency had fixed on for being here ; and we fear, is occasioned by the pertinacioos ObStittac y of the Ashantees to do that justice which we are imperatively bound to demand; thus rev &ring it necessary for his Excellency to posh the war to the capital of their country, and of course lettgthen the term of the campaign. Not withstanding, however, that we have sustained by our best exertions the" great work," still there is no doubt that his Excel lency's presence and example wo uld have effected much more than we can pretend to have per formed. It is well known to us all that this Co lony owes its present prosperous and happy state more to the continued residence and indi vidual exertion of,' his Excellency for many years, than to any other cause ; and that his abF:ence is a drawback upon our improvement, is as strongly visible to an,observer as it is sensibly felt and deplored by all classes of the inhabitants of this Colony.

INFANT SCHOOL SOCIETY. A very numerous and highly respectable Meet ing, Among which were not less than seven or eight hundred elegantly dressed Ladies, took place yesterday at the Free masons' Hall, to take into consideration the best means of forming an Institution fur the Instruction of Children under Six Years of Age- The Marquis of La xsnowss took. the Chair at one o'clock, supported by. Lord Calthorpe, the Marquis of Downshire Mr. Wilberforce, Dr. Lushington, Si r.I. :I I ackintosh, Mr. Broug'hann e Mr. Owen, of Lanark. Mr. I loam!, jun., Mr. Money, M.P., Mr. L she Foster, M.P., M r. I sea k ee M.P., Smith, M.P., Mr. M'Donald. the R ev . B. &c. The Noble CHAIRMAN called the attention of the Meeting to the circumstance which gave rise to the'foimation of similar Schools. An individual representation to himself and others induced t h e m to establish two schools—one in Westminster, and the other in Spitalfields ; and he was truly happy to state that the attempts had been most successful. Pillt he could assure the meeting that he did not take any merit to himself, as he acted entirely at the suggestion of others ; and he, was tar from being sangvine at that time as to'the benefit to be ex pected. limo had, however, shewn,' that when -infant child ren were prevented from forming habits of vice anti immor ality, and led into the paths of virtue and religion, they ripen ed into ma nhood, adorned with every virtue, and contributed largely to .the welfare of society. Ilis Lordship said he was aware that many, objections had been made to Institutions of this kind, particularly on account of the supposed separation of the child from its parent; and he certainly would always advise th e e d uca tion of the infant to take place Under Wise and discreet parents ; but weighing this subject more maturely, it became a que ation whether we shoUld adopt this system of education, or they should have no eduCation at all. In largo -manufacturing towns it was impossible for parents to attend to the romforts, the education, and the. Morality of their child:, en 'they being wholly 'occupied in their labours ; in consequence the children were allowed to t ;•o into the streets. Thus their yduthful minds were betrayed into babiti.pf vioteand depravity, and they were ftequently , sldltititinto a pinalcipation of fraud and robi'ery. But this would 'not be it children were with draWn earlier from the' streets, and reclaimed.; for when die seeds of vice had been sown, the seeds of good might have been first implanted, and instead of ripening into mischief were ripened into virtue. A fter some furtln:r- remarks, the Noble Marquis sat down amidst loud cheering. e : Mr. BnottGiTAll stated, that he - felt' great pleasure in at tending at this meeting, he having assisted. the Noble Marquis in the formation of the school at Westminster, the hen-social result of which had 'ren so tlistimsctiy stated by his Noble Friend. The answer given to one of the- objections rraised against the schools had: been so decisive as to leave him little 'to answer. But another obj coon had been offered, that we were carrying education too far, that we were commencing too early ; but he sincerely wished he could say that others were educated at a more advanced peried. —Much ac had been done tnr this great object, still the etlinal of the friends of, education were - . frequently niet by the parents stating they could not spare their children from their - work. By commencing earlier, their time , being less valuable, this difilculty was removed.. The Honourable and Lea nett Gentleman then, rs marked, that too often had fatal experience ahewn that children of seven ,or eight years of age formed habits of vice too early anti too deeply rooted ; and in stanced a capital conviction of et child under eight years, who was found guilty of the greatest ofiene against the law. Ile therefore contended, that good princiisles ought to be instilled earlier into their miods. This was HQ visionary or specu lative scheme, but had been found to be most successM in the schools in Westminster. and at Spitaltields, under the direction of Mr. Joseph Wilson, which he had no doubt most of the Ladies and Gentlemen present had witnessed, and in another which had been established at Walthamstow.— Ile then mentioned other establishments at Brewers Green, Whiteehapel, and other places, affbrding education and religious instruction to mora than 800 children, besides others in different parts of the west of England, ant\ mentioned that there was one also establishing at Birminghann The Learned Gentle. man then stated that there had been no appeal to public bene volence tilt the success of the' 4- yatena had been completely proved. lie concluded by. moving. the first resolution. Mr. WILDE nrou CE, in rising to second the resolution, gave it his most unqualified support, and assured the meeting that he should exert himself most .strenously in forwarding the views of the lastitutioo. Ile corsidered the happiest effects to have arisen from the school at Westminster, which he himself had witnessed. The lion. Gentleman contended that the political as well as moral state of the country depended.on religion, and dwelt much on the necessity of introdocing into the minds of children, at a very early age, religious instruction. The re gretted nut^ll that•statesnien. , while speculating in their closets, overlooked the greed foundation of the happiness of mankind, which CAnsi,ted io ditftisingaeducation ?mooing the lower orders of society, and thereby improving their disposition and • habits, and inculcating feelings of esteem anti respect for their superiors. The Resolution ir.s then put from the Chair, and carried unanimously. . Jotot Satt sir. Esq. M. P. in .prop',,ing the second Resclu tion, took a review of the great advantages of these Institutions, and said at a parent, lie knew, as well as by the experience of others, that by teaching children at a very early age religious and benevolent feelings towards-each other, that selfishness which was too predominaetin human nature was eradicated, and they w e e, re nder;o, ( I .e,t:roil s of assisting each other. The great principle by which netchine was to be kept in motion was not fear, but love, tn . : whenever there existed fear, the fa culties were er3lllped. iis great •iiflicutlty existed in procuring persons competent to conduct sacs Establishments, and for which purpose the. Central School would be found most bene ficial, being for the education of persons to become masters and mistresses. H a ying called the attention to these points the lion. Gentleman move,l the Peso's:Go:l. _ . The Rev. Dr. Tr' OR PE seconded the Iles°lution, and dwelt at considerable length on the advantages or early instructing the children of the lower orders of society. The Rey. Gentleman considered it in perfect..coasistency with his duty as a Minister of the Church of Christ 'to. support Institutions of this nature by every in .a-.s in his power. This Resolution was then put from the Chair and carried unanlmcusly. Sir JA: Es MACKINTOSH stated that the. observations of his Noble and Learned Friends on behalf of this valuable Institu tion left him little or nothing to urge in support ofso inestimable a benefit. The lion. Gentleman said it had been ably recom mended, its policy firmly established by facts as well as by the eloquence of those who had spoken before him, and when he re minded them that 1,000 children had already received religions instruction, and thus rescued from evil, and the tbundations for every principle of virtue ingratcd on their hearts and -minds, it would be sufficient evidence of the success of the labours of the Gentlemen engaged in this great and benevolent object. In conclusion the Hon. Gentleman made a powerful appeal to the Ladies, designating them as the means of civilizing and render ing man benevolent, amiable and generous. lb claimed the benevolent support of eN - ' , ry one present for this institution as being one of unquestionable benefit. The Hon. Gentleman then moved the Third Resolution. _ 111 r. 1.1,EN, in ~,,,oniting the Resolution, stated that his ex crtions were particularly attracted to this. Institution. from a pledge he had recjvcd from those inrwhorn it had originated, that it was fur the r..eeltion of children-. of every sect, without respect to cot:T.llkm or creed, aftd that he - also considered it as a great an 1 powerful auxiliary to those Institutions already established. This tzesolution was also carried unanimously. Lord CA LT nol;PEI, in rising to propose the next Resetniion, dwelt at very considerable length on the advantages of taking children into the, care and ifistruction•of.sehools at an earlier age.than any of the Institutions at prey it The Rev. E. , IllyiN,-1, in seconding the resolution, selected several passages from Scripture, as particularly relating to the objects this Society had in view, and in a speech of consider able leug:h, made a powerful and pathetic appeal to the be nevolence of the Ladies and Gentlemen present, and dwelt much on the benefits which,' within his own knowledge, had been de rivA from the school at Walthamstow. The resolution was then put, and the following Gentlemen were named as the Committee : Lord Dacre, T. . E S v r ' n n i s th , Bart., Sir John Lubbock, Sir . J. Jas.

These bring us the intelligence to that date, no open revolt had taken place, but that the utmost alarm and anxiety prevailed. Every man was at his post; but let the following extract of a letter, written on the evening of the 19th, by a well-informed and old resident in the Colony, speak to our readers the true state of affairs. The reported insurrection Surinam is by no means improbable, and will add to the danger of annerara. Pfxtract of a letter from Demerara received in town of 19th April . "'We have all been Under arms for the bst ten days, conse quently no business has been done. 'About the period just men tioned, informatiCin was given to the Governor, that there was to be a general rising of the slaVes on Easter Monday (this day), and that it was their intention to destroy the whole of the white population. A discovery, howev.2r, has fottunately prevent ed the attempt, at least till the hour I am now writing (7 p.in,) —Our country militia are all assembled at the different . depolls, and We have about four hundred of the 27th regirnent,alto_ gether about twelve hundred under arms. Our slave popular. tion is seventy thousand, of which 20,000 are effective able bodied men, yet we consider ourselve s f ar more t h an a m a tc h for them.

Their Ma jesties were attended by Sir WILLOUGHBY GORDON, and appeared much delighted with the establishment, the nature of which was explained to them by the interpreter.— Their Majesties were received by the full band playing " God save the King," and were highly g ratified with the skill of the juvenile Musicians. Th e band. consists .of all the usual instruments, the senior performer is • not more than fourteen,and the youngest seven years old. it is indeed a scene of no ordinary gratification to witness the healthy ap pearance and happy looks of a thousand of our gallant sol diers' children, who are generously protected by their country,. and destined probably at some future day to evince their gra titude by fighting her battles. After having seen the children at dinner, their Majesties witnessed the various gymnastic exercises for the introduction of which we are indebted to Captain Clias, and which are so admirably adapted to invi gorate the frame, and in particular to form expert and able seamen. The Majesties afterwards breakfasted with-Sir loughby Gordon, and were saluted at their departure by the hearty cheers of the youthful regiment, which was drawn up before them. Much has been said of •the personal appearance of these royal strangers, and much (as we have ahead observ ed) that is erroneous. Her Majesty, we repeat, is certainly a fine full-grown lady ; she is remarkably well-made, possesses an open and very agreeable countenance, not - devoid even of sweetness and sensibility, with good eyes and teeth, and is by no means deficient in gracefulness of manner or elegance of de meanour. The Lady attendant may also be considered to possess the most pleasing personal appearance. The King is about the medium height, and of an universally' vigorous frame. His gait bespeaks an internal feeling of superiority. H e meets the gaze of the surrounding crowd with the most perfect self-possession. His countenance is expressive of much deter mination, " Tenor proposiii" is written on his brow, where however there is to be traced no appearance of ferocity. The High - Admiral is tall, and very athletic, and appears to regard whatever may be passing before him with an inquisitive and reflecting eye. - The naval power of the country has been va riously stated. We believe it consists. of 13 vessels of small dimensions. The trade is considerable. Their Majesties have brought over a considerable sum of money in dollars. The dress of the whole party is now according to the English, cos tume. - The West Briton, on the authority of news by the last packet, gives the following as a list of the ships left by that packet at Rio Janeiro :—L'Eylau, 80 guns; Le Trident, 74 ; ha Marie Therese, 64 ; La Magicienne, 44 ; La Thetis, 44 ; La Medee, 44 ; Circe, 44 ; h'Armitle, 44 ; L'Astrea -44 ; L'Esperance, 28 ; L'Echo, 28 ; La Diligence, 98 ; L e Cuirassier, 18; La Pacine, 18 ; L'lnconstance, 18.
