TheY to carry into etrect the provisions of the Charter, late: preted, it is true, according to the most monarchical .constinction, but'they,are decidedly averse . to - that system of pure despotism which the Ministry are desirous toiestablish. The King is resolved to govern .on coPOutional principles, but great obstricles':pre.' sent themselves to this course. •The MiniStry have *tithed the administration of 'public af fairs t a system of arbitrary power.", What little independence .belonged to the tribunals was de stroyed by the. enactments propoSed ,by M. de Peyronnet, and the tribunals themnlves, as well us all the other branches of the public service,' have been filled With the creatures of M. do Vil lele:And his coadjutors..

Every. office has been " purified." The. staff of the' army and the civil appointments are exclusively the property of: the partisans of .the absolute Sys tem, while the business of education ii.delivered over to the Jesuits. But the greatest difficulty that prevents a return to a more reasonable policy on the part of the French Government, is the composition of the Chamber of Deputies. This body was elected under the strongest exercise of undue influence. Acts of ate grossest fraud and vio lence were u s ed by the Prefects to insure the success of the Ministerial candidates, whO it . is to be feared will now resist all improvement in • the 'fiblitical system 'of their Country, and 'array themselves. in • hostility against any.MinistryJess oppressive than that which called them into•ex istence, and invested them with septennial power.. The first step, therefore, towards a better state of things, would he a dissolution of the Chamber Of Deputies; - but M. de Villele, wboknowCwell that this would be a death-blow to his.;system,: wilt leave •no attempt untried to alarm the King from such,•w•measure., Charles the. -Tenth lung since promised his friends that one of , the earnest ;lets of his reign ohpuld he to grant an indcmpity to the , emigrants, s t ud his Most Christian Miljesty considers himself bound in honour to keep his promise.

All - these are matters for sincere congratulations between , the Rulers and the Ruled, who are both:equally interested in: the happiness and prosperity of their country. • [rita TIMES.] A .* financial document has been published (in addition to those which we-inserted yesterday), giving the detailed prodUce of the Excise duties fer the year and quarter ending 10th•of October, 1824; and comparing it with the produce of the preceding year, and corresponding quarter of 1823, the comparison is somewhat checkered ; ' exhibiting here an increase, and_ there a defalca tion: The activity of trade being shown by the transfer of property, we find, that the Auction -Duties within the last twelve months- have risen _above 50,0001., or almost 25 per cent. on the duties of 1823. Beer has experienced a'falling oWin the year'of about 1,2001. —end in. the quar ter of so much as 43,0001.; and this not accounted for by the alteration of the la*: as hate British Spirits, in the year, of 386,900/., though in the quarter,an increase of 74,0004 ‘; while foreign spirits•piesent ne excess for, the whole year -of above 300,000/., and for the single quarter of nearly half-that sum; or'more than .140,0001. We are not of the opinion Of a Roman Emperor, that one tax innoXiona With another, how-• ever eminently . otfensiVe the:source from which it may flow ; and we therefore do not congratulate the country, that a curtailed enjoyment of Eng lish beer has been succeeded by excess in the use of foreign spirits. The tax -on bricks and tiles has .adVanced from' 360,000 i. to 420,0001. per annum---a Strong indication that money abounds, and that . of the former channels for employing it, some have been considerably narrowed. The rent for houses' is that species of rent which has. suffered as yet the least abatement from a change in our national -circninstatices, and offerA therefore, to mete of ca pital, for 'the present mordent, a faveurite field of speculation. The tax on candies haSincreased about four per cent.-----4 pleasing symptom of - comfort among the people ; and the•mere so, because the consumption 'of oil and gas-light has at the same tiMe 'extended thrOnghOut the middle classet4 so as, cceterie paribus, to produce- a sensible effect upon ; the gross amount of the duty.

Such is the strain of puffing di rect, in which this gentleman is spoken of by his partisans or by himself. We have looked over both articles. They contain no interest for an English reader, and almost no danger to an Ad ministration. They embrace a great variety of topics—such as enriching the Clergy, indemnify ing the emigrant France—the - Greek cause, &c. One curious circumstance is the fact stated, that snore than two millions of livres were employed in bribing the Journals. They do not, however, apply so rude a name as bribery. No ;it was in each instance a douceur or gratuity,—no,hing more. But aft e r all, a great numerical majority, and almost the whole talent of the Journals, is still in arms against M. de Villele. There is no intelligence worth notice in these Journals. [NEW TIMES.] A sudden improvement in the Funds took plod° yesterday afternoon, which was ascribed to the receipt of private intelligence of a favour able tendency from Paris, by express, but its nature was not known. Consols, which had re mained stationary at 961 the whole day, sud denly advanced to 96ii- for the account, at which, price they closed. It was the settling. day in the British Fund Market, which passed over without any occurrence deserving notice. An improvement in price in nearly the whole of the Foreign Securities also took. place. French Renter were 102 f. 75c.; and the Scrip 15 premium. Austrian, Prussian, and Russian Bonds were also higher, the latter above one-half per cent. The Greek, Loan from I'3 to 10 per cent. Mexican Bonds were about 1 per cent. higher; and Colqmbian Scrip from 7 to 6+ disct. TIIE LEDGER.] 'lf the account in the Brussels Papers, which reached us yesterday, of the recal of General Guilleminot from Constantinople, be correct, we should look upon it as a strong indication of an approaching change in the French Ministry. It is well known that this embassy to the Porte is a sort of honourable exile, to which the jealousy of the present • Cabinet has condemned him, lest he might use the high favour with which the Dauphin honours him to .their detriment. these intrigUers fear nothing so much as the candour and straightforwardness 'by which the conduct of this 'Officer has been uni formly marked. Guilleminot, who seems ;to have penetrated at once • into the motives, to which he is indebted for his .present mission, ex hibited great , reluctance in accepting it ; and it Royalwas sus p ected h p la t d t he not t i m b e e e t n h at r i u he ng c w o i n t h se e n tl t of his t great d w i a ffi s cbuelutlytd, in t r i t o i c n u o l u a r rl t y o paros el l r e e f t e h r ou t g h h e t G t e h i a le t ra h l e , on account of his signal services in the late cam fia ign- in Spain, some reward that would serve to illustiute the conspicuous . part he had taken in restoring the reputation of the• french arms on 'that memorable occasion. But the orders of the King were ,peremptory ; and as the growing in firmities of the Monarch hind rendered access to him more and more difficult, Guilleminot saw , that the .prudent course would be to yield with as good a grace as possible; and the splendour of his mission was only another part of the Ministerial intrigue, which had procured the removal from Court of so obnoxious a per son. Such is the substance et least• f ir ,the rumours which were then prevalent,• in.;Paris ; and, as it agrees with the character of Vil• lele, hS well as with the influence %vide?' 'he exercised over the late King, as soon as the 'hides of the latter bad reduced him nearly to. • a state of dotage, it appears to us to have stronger claims to belief than similar statements have in general. If it be therefore true that,Guilleminot has been recalled' it would be the mosi ominous event for . the presott Ministry which has been brought as yet under public notice. • [MORNING onto:item] . • ' The infamous Proclathation , of Sir Frederick Adatn, declaring that the Cominander-in-Chief of his Majesty's NaVall'orces :la the Levant, coil. formably .to the. instructions he has received from the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, will arrest and capture all thevesSelS, armed or bear ing armed men, equipped by the authoritrof the Provisional Government 'of Greece, or by 'those who acknowledge its authority,_•iti con sequence -of the refusal of , the Provisional Government to revoke their Proclamation against the 'vessels of neutrals interfering in the contest betweetv:the Turks and Greeks, excited every Where yesterday the keenest 'indignation.

Now, it is agreed by all writers on international law that the Greeks would be perfectly justified in attacking, burning, or destroying Turkish vessels, with their crews. The most celebrated writers, as Cocceji, I3ankershoek, &c. do not he sitate to , lay down abstract positions, that in war every thing is permitted to the victor against the vanquished, and that though the right of killing r a conquering enemy is seldom exercised, yet who i.ever wishes to enforce his right, may proceed to that extremity. FOR THE SUN. EDDA. FAULE I.—QUESTIONS OF DANGLER. Gangler began thus his discourse : Which is . the more ancient, or the first among the Gods ? liar answers : We here name him A(lader, which signifies Universal Father, but in ancient Asgard he bears twelve names. Gangler asks, who is this God What is his power ? And what has he done to manifest his glory ? liar answers : he lives for ever, he regulates all things in his do minions, the great as well as the small. Ja.fnhar adds ; he has made the heavens, and the earth,' and the air. Tredie pursues : he has made more than the heavens and the earth; he has made men, and has bestowed upon them a soul which is to . live, and which, will never be lost, not even when' the bOdy shall be reduced to dust and to ashes . : and all men that are just, shall dwell with him in, a placa called the ancient, or the palace of friend ship ; but for the wicked they shall dwell *ith Bela (death), and from thence be plunged-Into Niftheim, which signifies the abode of the wiclee4 and is situated. below in the ninth world,—Upon. this Ganglcr . inquired ,what this, God had 'to do. .before he made the heavens and the earth. gar, replied ? 'be then dwelt among the Ryndhuscsior; giants. But, pursued Gangler, What was the, first things that he did ? What is the beginning o( all things ? Listen, replied liar, to the following passage of the poem Valuspa : " In the beginning of time, when nothing was in existence, .neither the shore, nor the sea, nor any foundation beneath, no land could be seen below, nor any sky above; the whole was a vast abyss ; no verdure appeared anywhere." • Jrffnhar pursues Many are the writers that have gone by from the time since Niflheim, or Hell, was first made, until the formation of the. earth. In the midst of Hell there is a fountain out of which the following streams . :—Anguish, the enemy of joy, the abode of death, perdition, abyss, tempest, whirlwind, roaring and howling; . that:which ,bears: the name of noisy, flows near the gates of the ,abode of death. Then Tredi T e n , E talc it il L FiaLi H.—o r t n i p ia FF t he m d z i c a o w u n r s o 4 S s it trn id 'r7 Nevertheless before all things, there existed a world, bright, fiery, which could not be inhabit ed by strangers, and was situated-.at the furthest extremity of the earth. • Surtur (the black). reigns there. In. his hand glitters a flaming sword. lie will come at the end of the world he will vanquish all the Gods, and will yield the universe a prey to fire. Thus is he mentioned in the Voluspa " Surtur comes from the south full of deceit and stratagems; a moving sun shines upon his': sword ;' the,Gods are disturbed at his sight ; men, rush in crowds into the paths of death." 13Ut, said - Gangler, what was the state of . the ) world ere families of men dwelt upon the earth, and before They were.collected into nations liar answers him : the-rivers of hell, which - were mentioned there before, withdrew 'so far . 'from theSe sources that their venomous tide was hard=` ened, like scoridx in a coal furnace. From this. came ice which impeded its Course. Then : the venom which spread above it was frozen . 6-I . goi. and thus were several layers of frozen vapours. heaped one upon the other in: the vast tt!.)yss.— Jafnhur pursued thus:--=ln this manner that part of the abyss towards ,the north, b e ... .carne,filled with a mass of frozen vapours, and of ice; but in the interior' there was nothing but whirlwinds and, storms. In an opposite direc..• tion arose also the southern parts, formed lightning, and by the sparks of the hurn. ing world. Tredie .

And again, in another passage :-- 46 But of the rivers of Hell drops of vendor have issued forth, and a wind arose from which a giant was formed. From him all gigantic tribes are descended." Gangler hearing this asked - : how did the fa mily of Ynter increase :and multiply ? :And do you believe that he was -a God ?
