LONDON, SEPT. 7, 1824. A T a_MEETING of the ITALIAN ItE. 44L. FUGEE COMMITTEE, held at the Mansion House this Day, The Right lion. the LORD MAYOR in the Chair, It was Resolved, That the following Address be published The political events which have of late so agitated society have thrown upon the bounty Of the British Public large numbers of expatriated Foreigners, whose situation is one of great destitu tion and distress. Of these a considerable proportion have been generously relieved; but many are left, principally Italians, who, unl e s s some immediate provision be made for them, will be reduced to the very lowest stage of want and misery. A few Gentlemen, sympathizing with their sufferings, have assn. ciated themselves for the purpose of making a temporary pro. ision for them, until measures can be taken to give them per thanent assistance ; and with this view they would appeal to all wh o can feel for the situation of those exiled strangers, who have sacrificed their prospects and l os t t h e i r a ll i n t h e attempt to ameliorat e the political institutions of their country. Among them are many men of education and accomplishments, who have occupied the highest civil anti military departments in the State, for whom situations might possibly be found, if an .effort were made by those of influence in society; and such relief would be in every respect more honourable and more gratifying than any other. The Committee are in possession of a List of nearly One Hun ,bed and Thirty of these unfortunate Foreigners, Into whose cir ochstances and situation they have minutely inquired. beThaille.Lullowing Gentlemen will act as a Committee in their Right Hon. the Lord May or boring, ohn 'heallmont,J Barber ! 2 .artwright, Major . e Crehpigny' Sir IV 1 11 rsaYell, Samuel ni..

Of whom may be bad, the Second Editions of Nus. f. and The Duke d'Angouleme may be, with justice, considered us the hope of his family, and in this respect the esteem in which he is held is of infi nite consequence. That he possesses this esteem is sufficiently evident ; but his principles being suspected as little favourable to the opinions of the majority of the people, the moment that is to place his father upon the throne is looked up to with mingled sentiments of hope and fear. If we are to judge by the acts of the Chamber, Ultraism is on the wane, and if this be the case, all may be well. The fall of Chateaubriand has been generally hailed as the triumph of liberal principles ; yet there are men who profess to know their cotemporaries well, men who have had opportunities of knowing them, who, very fur from entertaining this opinion, assert, on the contrary, that Villele is, in his heart, no less attached to the ancien regime than the Ex-Mini , ster they w e e b r oLe-le . ntioned. Like his rival, he is anxious t o place all things upon the sam e footing tion : but less bo previous h t e o , the e r e l s u c t t e d e a v i o l e u of too openly braving the public opinion, and consequently prefers the wily t wist i,iis i of the snake to the daring spring of th e li on . a p p e ars 11l probable. It is scarcely possible that the reigning family should not feel anxious to reign as their forefathers have done, and their wish is too much in unison with the principles of the 1101 y Alliance to imagine that some•secret system is not adopted of abolishing the Constitutional Governments, and of restoring the Monarchy to its original form. If the array be really faithful, and there is every reason for believing that it now is so, then the demise of the King will most probably pave the way to an extension of the royal prero gative ; but how far the nation will permit the in vasion of even the shadow of liberty it now pos sesses, it is impossible to say, although the pro babilities are, that dreading the consequences of a Revolution, it will be silent and submit.

Six pirates were brought to Jamaica who were fully identified by the Americans, and were committed to gaol to take their trial at the Assizes in August; and a Spaniard also had been sent in, who was identified by Mr. Dolphy as one of those who ill treated him on the South shore of Cuba.

EDITOR—The dissolution of the present - King of Feasce, which, it appears, may be now, unfortunately . for-that kingdom, hourly expected, naturally leads to the consideration of the pre sent state of France, and of the possible conse quences of this inevitable event. It has been the peculiar misfortune of 'the Bourbons to be re stored to the throne of their ancestors by foreign bayonets, so that the disasters of a nation, hitherto every where victorious, were the immediate causes of these re-establishments. In vain did many men reasonably uphold them as the harbingers of the peace of Europe, acid of the prosperity and tran quillity of France ; even those who admitted that these were good in thetnselve4, revolted at.the idea that they had seen . obtalned only the loss of that military fame which has always possessed inexpressible ch a r ms i n t h e eyes otiination essen tially military. The miseries of war were, it is true, at an end ; but the sacred territory of the Grande Nation had been violated, nay, the hitherto prostrate eagles of Austria, of Prissia, and of • Russia had soared triumphant on the .walls of Paris. This was a termination of a series of splendid achievements, which even the most mo derate could not reflect upon without feelings of disappointment and irritation. True it was, that, the inordinate ambition of their fallen - ruler had alone brought the armies of surrounding nations into the heart of France, and that he Wolfe bad been the real cause of all the miseries, and of the disgrace they now endured ; but yet they scarce ly blamed him, and, on„the contrary, attributing his disasters on,ly to .the basest treachery, they identified his fall with their own national degra dation. At all events, he was the Min of their choice, whilst his successor was that of Foreign Powers. This extraordinary man possessed, in deed, in an eminent degree, all the qualities re quisite to goVern the nation over which his good fortune bad placed him as a ruler. Fierce and unbending, as his system of Government most assuredly was, he still knew how to com bine its severity with so many advantages to the real interests of the people, that its defects were overlooked, and its annihilation is univer ' sally regretted. It is, indeed, a notorious fact, that few, if any, of the commercial towns of his former dominions stand well affected to their present rulers. Himself endowed with the most amazing activity, and possessed of a mind suf ficiently capacious to embrace every branch of the administratio n , hi s i n fl uence was f e l t f rom one end of his dominions to the other, and no ,. thing that could tend to the benefit or glory of I,ll' s subjects was permitted in a state of inertne ss .

Thus opposed by. a very large portion of the people., the House of the Bourbons would be very insecure had they not succeeded in gaining the army. It cannot be supposed that this army has at once forgotten the man whom it once idolized, No, his remembrance lives, and must live, in the hearts of all the French veterans who followed Mei in his victorious career, or were with hien when his good fortune yielded to the overwhelm. ing force of his enemies. But the Bourbons have found means, during the course of the last ten years, to new-model, in a great measure, the French army, which is now generally considered as wholly devoted to their cause'. The unjusti liable attack upon Spain, an attack.' reprobated by the majority of the nation, put the fidelity of this army to the 'test, and the event has proved not hesit a t e to s h e d favourable to the Bourbons. The soldiers of eir the Constit ut i ona l- G o- C o tit Constitutional to a n t: t c , a d t i e d vernment of Spain, and the nation itself, at th e same time that it reprobated the unjust aggres s i on , f e l t flattered by thee success of the enterpriz e It is true, and every easelid Frenehman.

It has proved, however, of infinite consequence to the Bourbon dynasty. not only by securing the af&ction of the army, but also by exhibiting One of the leading members of this family in the cha racter of a victorious general. Indeed, even by those who are loudest in their animadversions upon the war, the conduct of the Duke d'Angou leroe has given 4reat satisfaction. If he has not • NECROLOGY. 'From the Moniteur of Tuesday.] Literature and society are likely to sustain a serious loss. Al. LacrtETteer, sea. Alember of the French Academy, died yesterday, at the age of 73 years. The place that be has left vacant cannot be filled by a more valuable wri ter.- or by a better citizen. Peter Louis Lacretelle was born at Alets in 1761. His father was dwe of the most distinguished advocates of the bar of that city. In 1778 the young Lacretelle entered himself among the advocates of Penis. About this period, literature, united to jurisprudence, began to be considered as the indispensible study of young Barristers. • M. Lacretelle greatly contributed to give this direction to their lihours. Os discourses, selections and memoirs, which afterwards itheafett; 4orne Um the credit GS a correct and elevated mind—a most distinguished talent for a writer. In 1781 he obtained the prize given by the French Academy for the Eulogium of Aliontausier ; the discourse on the precedent of infamous punishments, celebrated as the best work published in the year 1783, has exercised great ins fluence over our judicial world. Theauthor afterwards labour ed at a catechism of morals demanded by the Academy, but the revolution, which followed, interrupted his course. If the friendship of illustrious men may in any degree serve as a guarantee for those who are honoured b y i t , Al.

Numberless acts of generosity do honour to his life, anti he leaves to his friends sorrow softened by many affecting recollections. Last year an old widow lived alone in a small room in Rue Saint Jacques. Although rich, with stock to the amount of B,ooof. she had the singular desire to pass fur a serraste, and to procure for herself all that she wanted.— One morning she went out, according to custom, to get Milk, and returned no more. All the endeavours made during three years to flail her have proved unsuccessful. As her death was not denied, the heirs are preparing to take possession of her'property. In the course of last month t w o individuals, in the neighbourhood of Tonnere, hav ing quarrelled, one said, " If I wished to disclose what I know, I could have him put to death. I will have three heads off." These words having been told to the Justice, the parties have been arrested in Paris, and lodged in . the prison La Force. The individual menaced is the cousin of the person who disappeared froth her lodging, and who, there is reason to believe,' suffered a violent death % The proceedings for bringing the suspected murderers to trial are 'going on.--( Paris Paper.)

As the first ,PAtiglislimen that bad yet freely traversed the country, he had every reason for being satisfied with the civilities lie met with, and still more with the politeness of some members of the 'Alexi.; can government. By such assistance he was en abled not only to visit all that was Worthy of notice, but, moreover, he was permitted to dig for antiquities, and bring to light reninauts of Old Mexico, which the ill-judged seal ofits Apanisli conquerors had - doomed to remain for ever buried in oblivinu. Nor was this all ; thougl, setting a proper value upon Some of the few unique specimens yet remaining; the government did not hesitate to entrust Mr. B. with them, and they now form one of the most interesting poi (ion of his highly curious exhibition. The inspection of all the •vgilutible docements of ancient Mexico affords ample tnatterfor'refleca tion. it is not only the beauty of the workman , ship, and the science displayed in the execution, which most awaken the astonishment; it is, above all, , the very striking resemblance so observable between the productions of the Egyptian and Mexican artists. From this resemblance, and ' s rnMfr e : p ein a xn r io a crt t oil t gEa d oit:e t to ; gfil i ti tti titlies l at i rb t vic' s oY e ell.ly s ala e ria a t'il s voto , lll:d W ses ' ut e sielpill a ec r t e eillixfoli i gtis n gt e alhi l s i eg i t : l e oil d iw:: , with Mr. BULLOCK, to believe that " there were • antiquities erected. by a people whose history was lost even before the building of the city of Mexico," and consequently by a race of men su•• perior to those who dwelt in that country at the time of its conquest by the Spaniurds. The fol lowing description of several,of these antiquities will give our readers some idea of their nature; it is a description of what is called Bun° deiilonte zunia, situated near the summit of a conical . mountain called Tescosingo : " We etxployed our horses as far they could take us, Nit the unevenness of the ground at last obli g ed us to dismount, and having fastened theni to a nopal tree, we scrambled with great difficulty, and at last perceived that we were near the ruins of very large building—the centented stones remaining in some places covered with stucco, anti forming walks and In some places the terraces were carried over chasms by Solid pieces of masonry , in others cupkougli the living rock : but. as we endeavouretLto.prortelin. straiihtljne,,our labour ..was very great, being sometwoesidaltgar tu climb on war hands and knees. By the assistance of underwood, however, at length, after passing several buildings anti terraces, the stucco of which appeared fresh and of a fine peach colour, we arrived at about two-thirds of the height of the hill, almost exhausted voitlt our exertions : and great was our disappoinunent when We found that our guide had mistaken the situation, and did not know exactly where we were. Greatly chagrined, we began to retrace our steps; and luckily in a few minutes perceived the object of our search: It was cut in the solid rock, and standing out lilze a martin's nest from the side of a house. It is not only an extra- • ordinary bath, but still more extraor di nar il y plats d. It is a beau tiful basin, about twelve feet long by eight wide, having a well • about five feet by four deep in the centre, surrounded by a pa rapet, or rim, two f eet sixinches high,with is throne, or chair, - such as is represented in ancient pictures to have been used by the kings. There are steps to descend into the basin or bath : the whole cut out of the solid Ix*phyry rock with the must mathematical precision, and polished in the most beautiful manner. This bath commands one of the finest prospects in the Mexican valley, including the g reater part of th...lake of Teecuco, and the city of Mexico, from which it is distant about thirty miles. quitto anci e i N n e t t l i a g s r h se k t i i w o t , ettael which chffic)r:h; a pp r oac h in g -- model, o p ielefbeenoao n c h i w e g h e r n—nel monarchs e i tr i ec a yiy ejoaufstthmo s tr"co u ntry.sn s iD g rel uctantly t da r r ot a c e A r el d d s a hurr e we descended, our guide showed us in the rock a large reser voir for supplying with hater the palace, whose walls still re-. tuained eight feet high ; anti, as we examined further, we found that the whole mountain had been covered' ith. palaces, • • temples, baths, hanging gardens, &c. ; yet this place has never been noticed by any writer.
