PARIS PAPERS. PARIS, JUNE s.—Att immense crowd was at 'the sitting of the first Chamber of the Royal Court of Justice, which was to• decide in the cause of M. Michaud against M. Simon d'Autre -vine, known by the name of M. Henry Simon. Berryer noted as counsel for M. Michaud. The Court, after a short deliberation, ordered that the office and the instruments of the publica tion of the Quotidienne should be immediately de livered up to M. Michaud, and that the direction of the journal should be confided to him till the •question of property shall be decided upon. The Tribunal of Correctional Police has given judgment in the affair of the Aristarque. The 'tribunal,• considering that the journal existed at the time of passing the law of 1820, has declared the seizure of the journal to be null and void, and has discharged the Marquis de Panne de Poygiron from the complaint against him. The King's Advocate immediately entered an appeal against this sentence. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.—Syrynm or Jula 25. The sitting opened at two o'clock. The Keeper of the Seals was present Messrs. tie St-Chamans and de Geres, Re porters of the Committee of Petitions, succeeded each other in the Tribune. Among the petitions, which was set aside by the order of the day, is that—of M. Oudotte of Chalons-on-the-Marne, proposing a method of indemnifying the emigrants. The Committee, confiding in the promises made by the Govern ment, propose the order of the day, which was adopted without opposition. . Carde, Advocate of Mirande, opposes the septennial elec tions.—(A laugh.)—He asks the execution of the Charter for twenty years at least, to judge of the merit of it.—Order of the day. M. Simon Lorriere, of Paris, deprived of his rank of Colonel without a trial, demands to be reinstated, or tried by a Court martial. The Committee proposed the order of the day, seeing that the right of appointing and discharging officers was vested 'exclusively in the Crown. M. Mechin regrets that his honourable friend M. Foy is not present to defend the petitioner : he thinks an officer can never be deprived of his rank ( grade ), for it is a property which is re tained till death. He proposes to refer the petition to the Mi nister of the Interior.—The Reporter persists in desiring the older of the day. [Front Galignani's Messenger of Thursday.] STOCK EXCHANGE, FIVE O'CLOCK.—The price of Stock sufficiently maintained its ground to give rise to some negocia tions, and notwithstanding the approach of settling day, there has been some speculation for the end of the month, at an im proved quotation. A rumour was set afloat of a strong expe• dition having sailed from one of the principal ports of the king dom, on a distant voyage, but it had no effect on the market. The Royal Spanish Loan has declined ; the Five per Cent. for 'Money closed at 102 f. 60c.; and when the parquet closed it was 102 f. 80c. • and at this hour it is 102 f. 9 0 c. MADRID, SUNE 12.—The Leva which has been in use in Spain from time immemorial, instead of a Conscription, and which produces a greater number of soldiers than recruiting, is carrying on with great activity. - - • ( From the Constitutionnel. ) Rio JANEIRO, APRIL 9.--(Extract of a Private Letter.) — During my stay in this country I have procured some details of -what has taken place in. Paraguay, where Doctor Franzia still -domineers. The following is the most correct information I -have been able to obtain as to the fate- of Bonpland, who had -excited so much attention.in France and England, and where -ever he was known. About two years and a half ago he was at St. Anna, on the eastern bank of the Rio Parana. lie had formed there &ue plantations of Paraguay tea, but was carried tiff about eleven o'clock one morning by a body of 800 troops, being'a detachment of those in the service of Doctor Franzie.— The plantations, which were in the most flourishing state, were -destroyed, and the Indian families which 111. Bonpland had collected around him by the mildness of his character and the advantages of civilization, as well as himself, were taken rsoners. Some of them indeed saved themselves by swirl's ening, and others who.resisted were massacred. M. Bonpland; 'salting a part of his valuable collection of objects of natural 'history on • his shoulders, was conducted to Assomption, the capital of Paraguay, whence he was . sent to a fortress, and em- Pls?yed as a-physician to the garrison. How long he remained in thiN - exile is not exactly known ; but afterwards he was sent for, it is said by Doctor I ranzia, the Supreme Director of raguay, and then dispatched to superintend some commercial communication between Paraguay anti Peru, perhaps that to wards the province of Chiquitos and Santa Cruz de la Sierra. He was to complete a 'road'there, while he at the same time prosecuted his botanical inquiries. His friends hope that t2ne exertions of the French Government, of the Institute, and of M. Humboldt, will not be fruitless. Bolivar also haS written a letter to the Supreme Director of Paraguay, in which he demands, in the most kindly terms, that our count r y man be given up to.him as the friend of his youth. If M. Bonpland should be fortunate enough to return, he will be able Ukilive-a great deal_of information on countries at present quite -unknown in europe. • The Asia, and. two Spanish frigates having troops on board, :posed the moittli of the Rio tie is Plata a fortnight ago. There is a report. here that 6,000 Portuguese troops are coming; if .they do they .will be badly received. I From the Journal des Dibats.l • PAPaS, JUNE 24.--M. Dumontel, a young Advocate of Cfrem•herry, convicted of having murdered his mother, was exe-- - ented there on .Tune 12. His right hand being first cut off, his body was afterwards burned, and the ashes strewed in the neighbouring river It was- proved that he strangled her on the night of March 30 and 31, and afterwards sent her body in a box to. his country seat, where he buried her. No suspiciOn ewas entertained till he was arrested for having false papers. This great • criminal maintained his firmness till the last mo ment of his existence. A u odium Ito, .1 TINE 18.—Since the 27th of April last, the Reis Effendi leas declared verbally to Lord Strangford that the Porte consented to the evacuation of the two Principalities tsf Irlo4davia and Walachia. • It - was also announced to him that nrtiers have been transmitted to the Turkish Commanders - at Bucharest and at Jassy, to put in march the Ottoman troops, so as to fall back upon the right bank of the Da --pulse. In the mean time his Britannic Majesty's Ambassador was uselessly awaiting the execution of this order which had been so officially announced. He conferred with the Imperial Iriternuncio the Baron - D'Ottenfels, and they have again ad-; dressed another-note to. the Divan, complaining of the delay occasioned in the execution -of• the order of evacuation. Not having received any answer; they demanded an interview with -the Reis Effendi.i In this-interview they strongly, reproached the Divan on its-versatile conduct, whose promises up to that - - mOment had invariably been - most deceitful. The Turkish Minister, faithfhl-tO his system' of tergiversation, only gave an evasive answeril so that this interview has not been productive •of any result. : , FRENCH FUNDS, PARIS, .3 UNE 25.—Five per Cents., 103. —Bank Stook, 1,965. --Neapolitan Five per Cents. in ducats, '9O ; in franca, 97. 75.—Rentes d'Espagne, 194. —Royal Spa nish • Loan,• 1823, 59f.L-Exchange- on London, one month, 25'. 30.

The persons arrested, who are known not -to hold liberal opinions are for the most part set at liberty on paying 18 or 20 piastres. It is areal speculation. However, it is much the same in all the branches of the Administration._ .Money does 'everything here; and it may be affirmed, that this country is the most demoralised of all : corruption has reached all classes of society.

They also accuse M. d'Ofalia, and all the Ministry for blindly following whatever is prescribed them by Foreign Powers. It is said that a great many persons have been' arrest ed at Barcelona. Since the amnesty the cippesite parties have been more embittered against each other,:than before, and the King is sensible that he has more need of the French than ever. His Majesty will not return till the 19th. At Pampe luna all persons imprisoned for political offences are set at liberty. This is the only part of Spain where the amnesty has produced a good effect. PORTUGAL. (From the Lisbon Papers to the 13th inst.) LISBON, JUNE 9.—Saturday, the sth, being the First Anniversary of the glorious entry of the King into his Capital, when restored to the free exercise of sovereignty which a disorganizing faction had usurped, there was a splendid draw ing room at the Palace of Bemposta, where the Grandees, the Diplomatic Body, and a vast number of persons of distinction, had the honour to pay their compliments to his Majesty and to kiss his Royal hand.; and as the splendour of this memorable day was heightened by the decrees which the King had just promulgated, who with so much prudence and wisdom guides in such difficult times the helm of Go: nment, all were eager to express their gratitude to our beloyed Monarch, who received every body with the kindest expressions of satisfaction. The flags were hoisted on all the forts and ships of war, which fired the usual salutes during the course of the day. The city was brilliantly illuminated in the evening, and.the joy of all good Portuguese at the publication of the law and decrees issued by his Majesty cannot be described : there were none of those rude shouts which during the time of the Constitutional Go vernment were raised by a hired mob,—of those insults with which they assailed many respectable citizens, and made them follow the stream : it was the lively pleasure which 'animates well-disposed hearts, when there is a pleasing hotie of im provement in the public prosperity, when good ordeK is con solidated, and finally, :when measures are taken which directly tend, like those we owe to his Majesty, to close the fatal abyss of revolution. NAIL-OFFICE, JUNE 7. A decree in favour of the English officers actually employed in the Portuguese service, declares that it is just they - should enjoy the same advantages as his Majesty's laws . pive to the other officers of his armies. Those English officers who' passed from the British service into the army of Portugal, and who are to be employed in it, are to be considered, without any dis tinction., according to the regulations of the Alvara'of the 16th of December, 1790.: the time of their service, resulting from their commissions when they removed from the British army to that of Portugal, shall be accounted as if wholly passed in the latter.—Those English officers who remained in the Portu guese service after the close of the war in 1814, are considered in the same situation in which they now are, till, the time of their service being verified, they may begin to enjoy the ad vantages which his Majesty was pleased to grant them, under the title of Reform, by his decree of August 6, 1820. GERMAN PAPERS. BERLIN, JUNE 15.—A great and important financial ope ration has just taken place relative to the debts of the State, of which the following are the particulars :—According to the re gulation that has hitherto subsisted, the sum annually paid by the Exchequer to tire Sinking Fund, for the purpose of purchas ing these securities in the market in the course of the day, and thus effecting a gradual redemption. These purchases are hencefort to cease. H is Majesty has addressed a cabinent or der to the commission for the administration of the public debt to the following effect, that the public securities which are to be redeemed by the Sinking Fund legally established for that purpose, shall in future be determine by a Lottery every six months, viz. in March and September. In this manner-there fore public securities (or bonds) to the amount of half a mil lion shall be drawn by a Lottery every half year, tnd the holders shall receive in cash the full nominal value on the 2d of January and 2d July every year, together with the interest. The - list of the numbers drawn will be published, and those persons who not withdraw the value of their numbers, will not receive any further interest for them. This operation could not fail to have a favourable influence on the-public securities, es pecially as the original holders of the bonds or obligations who bought them at the-rate of 60 or 70 per cent. have the advan tage, in case their numbers should be drawn, of having them -paid at the full nominal value, and thereby gaining, besides the interest, 30 or 40 per cent. The consequence is, that even be fore the publication of the Royal Ordinance in the-bulletin of the laws, the obligations were in great demand here, and have risen to 95, a value which they never before obtained. There is little doubt of their rising still higher. With respect to the other Public Securities, the rnotle of redeeming thetri hitherto practiced is " lot the present," says the Royal Ordinance, to be continued." The King, we understand, will again go to Toplitz for the ' season and afterwards visit Silesia, before returning to the capital. The review of the two corps of troops asseinbling near Breslau. will, therefore, not take place till the beginning of the autumn. • COLOGNE, JUNE 17.—A Cabinet order of his Majesty the King of Prussia has just been published here, to the following effect : " I have frequently had occasion to observe, that in the Rhenish provinces the communes of one district, or of several districts, unite to make a representation on some affair in which they are all interested, and then present • their representations with signatures which till entire sheets of paper. This cannot be done, except by invitation of a commune, or its Magistrates, to give in the intended representation, obtaining signatures and other such proceedings, which cannot be allowed: If a com mune has anything to represent, it may do this for itself like any other petitioner ; but the inviting of other communes to join, is contrary to the regulations of the Felice, and I there fore commission you to issue a gee•_ral ordnance to the chief presidencies of the Rhenish provinces, by which this abuse may be put a stop to. (Signed). . " FREDERICK -WILLIAM. " To the Baron Von Schuelmann, Minister of the Interior and Police. " Berlin, May 11, 1324." • ALGIERS. ( From the Ilampsfare Telegraph.) On Monday the (Arminian, 48, Capt. W. - Hamilton, C. 8., arrived from the Mediterranean station (where she had been. very actively employed upwards of three •years), to be paid off. The intelligence of most prominent interest from that quarter is what relates to the dispute With Algiers. The letter Which we subjoin iipon this subject, is in tanour the same as se veral others with which we have been favoured : " Off Algiers, May 28, 1824. " The present captious. war with the Dey of Algiers (for such it is considered here) is, I perceive by the papers, yet misunderstood. • It is stated in one of the articles for the Dey's signature, as an apology for the outrage said to have been com mitted in breaking open the Consul's house, (which the Dey positively denies, 'and declares that his, Mr. M'Donald's, own clerk opened the door, and told the soldiers to go in), for the future, - the flag - should be hoisted on t?-e town-hausnas well as the country one. To this demand the :Dey runwastrated, inairnirCh as it would become a question •of religion among his subjects"; consequently, he could . not answer-for the safety of Ate.Cansul, if •it ' was hoisted. This ha - stated himself,,.m a letter to Lord Bathurst at the same time he agreed to sign the -whole of the articles presented, and denied. any objection having been made to bond Exmouth's treaty ; but he coact not, after :the repeated ill treatments he had experienced froth . - Mr. ill‘Do nald, allow him-to return • but any person beside, " a child," h e :will respect, that England may send. ThiS is the absurd contention to cause another bombardment. Further, there is no objection_ whatever to our officers wearing their swords in the Dey's. presence, for the Admiral (Sir Harry Neale), and his Captain (Sir Charles Burrard), a Lieutenant, and two mid shimen,. waited on the Dey, with their - swords on : and so little did the Dey think his objection to Mr. M'Donald would be. considered of any consequence, that he had himself arranged • the different salutes, as a proof of his friendly disposition ; but when the proposal was made for the Consul to land again, and insisted on as a sine qua noel, the Dey brokeinto a passion, and thus ended the interview and negociation. There is-much ex pected from the bombs; but we ought to expect more from the disposition of his Janissaries ; for if they do not cut off his head, they will laugh at your bombs. Since • Lord Exmouth was here, they have strengthened those - weak .points his Lord ship discovered, with three additional batteries, each two tier — on the lower 18 guns, and on the upper 16. It is not supposed theships will have any thing to do with the attacks; nor indeed • would it be at all prudent. They are to anchor near the bombs, to give them assistance only, if necessary. The Dey declares that if we bombard the town, he will semi all the inhabitants °a Cof it, and bold mitt) the last !' We fully expect, howeVer, that as soon as the . other .bomlis arrive from England (the Terror, Capt. Art uthnott, is arrived), we shall begin to bom bard.

The German Papers inform us, that the Go vernment of Prussia has hit upon a new method of applying the Sinking Fund to the redemption of the public debt. Instead of buying up stock from day to day it) open market, as heretofore, the purchases are to be confined to two days in the year—viz., the 2d of J►►nuary and the Ist of July ; on each of which days half the amount of the whole annual Sinking Fund is to be expende d• Then, as to the portions of the debt to be thus paid off, they are to be determined by the novel expedient of a lottery.

It was reported that it would be joined by thirty transports, having six thousand troops on boftrd, and then proceed against some of the most powerful Islands in the Archipelago. By a letter from St. Jago de Chile, we learn that the President, General FRERE, was at that period at Conception, completing the treaty of alliance and friendship with the Araucanian In dians. He was also fitting out a naval and mili tary expedition against the Island Chiloe, the command of the navel department of which had been bestowed on Captain FOSTER, a very dis tinguished officer, until Lord COCHRANE arrived. The Indians had volunteered to furnish an auxi liary force for this important undertaking, for it. is the last place ,possessed by Spain in Chile, The Constitution had been completed.

" Office of the Secretary of State and Foreign Relations, in the of the Goverrunent; at the Capital of Bogota, 13, 1824. " TO. THE INTENDANT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF MAG.. - DALEN A. " I have the honour to send your Excellency, with an order - of the - Vice-President, the Gazette of Colombia, No. 126, which contains all the proceedings at the time of the introduction of the Commissioners of-his Britannic Majesty to the Government of Colombia. Your Excellency will doubtless find, in the dis course of Mr. Hathilton, sufficient reason for rejoicing at the frankness with which he has declared the views of his Cabinet. " Since Constitutional Spain has been subjected by the Al lied Powers •of Europe, their attention has - been directed to these countries as theatres for future operations, doubtless for the purpose of indemnifying themselves for the sacrifices they have made in restoring the Catholic King to his ancient abso lute power. Fortunately we have found a friend in our own continent the United States, and in Europe, Great Britain, who oppose themselves to the machinations whichlhreaten to disturb the tranqitillity of the Republic. Your Excellency has seen the declaration of the President of the United States; and it is with no small pleasure that I now furnish you with that which his Majesty the King of the United Kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland made by his Commissioners directly to this Government. - " So welcome a situation of affairs is chiefly due to the firm ness with which the Colombians have adhered in past years to our salutary constitutional regimen, our obedience to laws, and respect to constituted authorities. The Executive has been obliged to do but little to bring things to their present situation, in spite of the disorder'that is believed to prevail in neighbour ing countries. The regularity which prevails in our privileged country is the best guarantee we could have desired to give to the world, for the wise and progressive improvements which time must produce in other independent countries of what was . once Spanish America. This will be sufficient to excite ad miration at the progress of. our concerns, and to make the Re public a model worthy of imitation. " The existence of Colombia, under her tutelar institutions, has certainly proved to Europe and America, in a practical manner, that the race of the ancient Colonists of Spain were not so degraded anti humbled as has been supposed, since they have ben able to break through the wretched prejudices of their e-.irly education, and to rise by their own strength to the rank of sovereign and independent nations. For such a complete triumph of public opinion, the Executive receives continual congratulation' , fro?». all - and wishes to participate his g ratification with his fellow-citizens. ' " But for the present, the Executive confines himself to 1t... - minding your Excellency through me, of the -necessity of re doubling your exertions in the department under your com mand, for the purpOse of fortifying our liberal institutions more, and more, and for rendering more intimate the union between ' all citizens, families, and towns. WhoeVer deviates from the right way on this - subject, will bring evils to the Republic which ' cannot be enumerated. Do your utmost to preserve the happi,. ness we at present enjoy, and Colombia will possess for ever the • respect of strangers, and the love of her children. God pre serve yon. " P. DUAL." UNITED STATES. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, MAY• 26. ' While the House remained in Committee of the whole, on the state of the Union, Mr. Clay rose, and said that he would ask a moment's attention of the Committee, whilst he said only one word in respect to a resolution which he had had the hoxour to present some time ago. The resolution to which he referred was that which proposed an expression of the feelings of Con gress in regard to an attack supposed to he meditated. by Allitti Europe upon the independence of Spanish America. He had offered that resolution in consequence of information disclosed in the President's Message, at the opening of the presenes sion of Congress ; and most certainly, if the design imputed to the Allies had really been entertained, every consideration con nected with the interest, the safety, and even the independence of this country, called for the most deliberate attention to his proposition. But such a purpose, abominable as it would have been, ought not to be attributed upon any other than the strongest evilence. Events and circumstances, subequent to the communiea tion of the Message, evinced that if such a purpose were ever seri ously entertained, it had been relinquished. For his part, whilst he was disposed to keep a vigilant eye on every movement of of the Allies, as to America, and to be ready to give his feeble co-operation to every measure calculated to repel their aggres sions, if any such should be attempted, on the independence of any part of America,. he was, on the other hand, unwil ling to rive them any just cause of offence against us. But, to pass Me resolution—after all that has occurred—in .the ab sence of any sufficient evidence of their cherishing inimical designs on this Continent—it might be construed by them a unfriehdly, if not offensive.' Under the full conviction, there fore, that they did not entertain any purpose so diabolical as that would be of attempting to reduce Spanish America to its ancient subjection, or of compelling it to adopt the monarchical form of Government, he should continue to abstain from pressing upon. the attention of the house his resolution, and should allow it to sleep, where it now reposes, on the table. ( National Intelligencer, May 28.) ' M. Jose Silvestre Rebell° was presented yesterday by Mr. Adams, Secretary of State, (to whom he had delivered his cre dential letter), to the President of the United States, as Charge d'Affairs from the Emperor of Brazil, and was received and recognized in that character by the President.
