FRENCH PAPERS. (Frans the Constitutionnet If Thursday.) - PARIS, OCT. 11.—The journal of Lyons of . the 17th of this month contains the following ar. sticle " For some time a 'great deal has been said among the manufacturers of Lyons of attempts to -seduce workmen to go to foreign countries. Fine. .pro Mises are made them if they will consent to transfer our manufactures to our eternaltivals, the English. -Proceedings .have been commenced at Boulogne against Messrs. Guillotte, Marmin, and come others, accused of this criminal attempt. Mr..Tontierieux, a merchant, one of their pc - complices, has just been brought by the gen darmes before the tribunal at Boulogne. Most of the persons accused have fled. Some honour able names, well known eV Lyons, are spoken of as impliCated in this affair : we refrain from men tioning' them, - for reasons that will be easily un derstood. Whatever may be-the speculations of - vapidity, we - do not - that it will be• possible to deprive our city of the sceptre. of• industry in the manufacture of silks. To effect this, it would be necessary to deprive it, at the same time, both of the water of its rivers for the colours, and of the taste of its designers, and its mechanicians, &c. Other similar attempts have been made without - success: let us hope that this will meet with• the same fate." ( From the'Journal des Dfbats. ) PARIS, OCT. 21.—M. de Chateaubriand, whose • return has been announced in several journals, arrived at Paris only yesterday. The Countess of Chateauhriand has come with him, and has just placed herself at the head of the infirmary eßtablihhed by her cares, and in which an annual fête to Maria Theresa is celebrated. The poor ttromert and old men taken care of in this in- lirmary strewed on this occasion the greatest joy at seeing again their benefactress. It has been said in the journals that M. tie Chateaubriand had sold his works for 400,000 francs, which has probably originated in the following circum stance :—Near the infirmary of Maria Theresa there was a spot of ground, which was lately sold • for one ,hundred and eighty thousand •francs, which was to be divided into different lots, on • which certain speculators proposed to establish public games for the people. This would have compelled the abandonment of the infirmary. M. de Chateaubriaml, it is said, in order to pre - serve this work of charity, has re-purchased the • ground, and •he found a bookseller who will ad • twee him, at different periods, 180,000 francs for • u work which M. de Chateaubriand is to furnish him at fixed periods. .This isAnaking a generous WO of talents; but we wish, for the honour of France, that M. de Chateaubriand had ,other • means of paying such a noble debt. ( From the Moniteur If Friday, Oct. 22. ) NOTHING OFFICIAL. NunumnEno, , OCT. 18.—We have letters from - Vienna which say :—The accounts that are re ceived from the frontiers of Turkey, are of such • e nature RS to make it. probable that Constant . .. nople will :tom' be the theatre of important events. lt seems that the party of Janissaries, which is at the head of latirs since- the deposition of the Grand Vizier, Glialib Pacha,bas farther projects. Besides the Reis Effendi, whom the Sultan has been forced to -send into exile, it was expected 'that several other persons, even among the chief - • officers of the Seraglio, world be dismissed, se. veral of them having personal enemies among the• Chiefs of the Janissaries. Our Court expects with impatience the next regular courier from Pere, who will bring dis. . patches from Baron Ottenfels, the imperial In ternuncio, which will- come down to September 24 or V,5. The last courier from Bucharest hasibrotrght to the Foreign Office letters which state that no change has taken place in the position of the Ot toman troops, on the left bank of the Danube. Foreign emissaries have endeavoured to pro pagate a report at Jassey, that the Russian troops in Beisarabia would shortly make an irruption. into Moldavia. The Ilospodar has taken care immediately to contradict this report. I From the Constitutionuci of Friday.) PA ntsi Oc v. V.—Tile, desperate situation of.' affairs in Spain is attributed to two causes,—the fanaticism inhe• rent in the Spaniards, joined with themachievelism of the clergy ; and the impolicy of the French Ministry, who would not assume alrault and open demeanour, who, After applauding the success -of our troops against the Revolution (a success, of which, all the world knows, they are quite innocent), took no measures td direct and moderate the counter-revolutionary explosion. In . . more closely examining these two causes, it will lie seen that if the Ministry are to blame on account of the, latter, they are --not innocent altogether of the former. In fact, if any power were capable of opposing the mischievous disposition of the clergy • it was France, which, strong by her victories, might.and ought to have traced the live which the counter-revolution should not have passed. These limits were pointed out in the Ordinance of Andujar. No- man of good faith will deny that it was, if , not easy, at least possible to fix the rules by which-the restore - thin was to be consolidated, either in reclaiming a new mixture • of ancient laws - and new 'ideas, or in seeking among the an cient archives of the Spanish Monarchy the titles to the ancient 11U:riles of Spain. See what a strange spectacle Spain now - offers. The i'rench armies occupy the Peninsula, and the Pc- ninsolu. is a prey to constantly reviving disorders. We p a y immense subsidies to pres?-tve tranquillity, and tranquillity leas never existed for a moment.. When are so ninny sacrifices fin* mere toys to cease ? What trouble have our Ministers taken to suspend these enormous expenees They have other thoughts in their heads. aust they not intrigue to maintain their places against the will of all the world ? Must they not -attract to themselves the fruits of a new reign, the dawn of which is so luminous with-hope ? .Of what consequence is it, so that they remain in office, that the fruits of our expedition to Spain are entirely lost ? The Ministry indeed trouble them , selves little about the situation of the Peninsula, the expenee of the occupation, and the losses Prance every day suffers at Madrid. If we have wasted in vain so much blood and trea sure for such an object—if, in place of restoring the Spanish Monarchy, the Ministry has only restored civil war—if we have by our own fault, and by a pretended disinterestedness, which is only folly, allowed the legitimate influence which we ought to exercise over Spain to be lost—if,- finally, we have no-hope .of being ever repaid our advances for Spain, of what come.; queues is ell this to the - Ministers, if lihey still preserve their places ? LISBON, OCT. B.—f P,ivals Correspondence.)—l informed: .you in my letter .of the 29th September, that a conspiracy was to break out on the 26th—that the Government had discovered . •it and prevented it—that several persons had been arrested,.. that the Queen was suspected—and that the Patriarch was the director of all this. The Portuguese Government, which sub sequently acquired a more perfect:knowledge of the matter from the justificatory papers, felt its weakness to be so great that it dared not take any rigorous measures. Seeing, however, at a later .period the urgent necessity of taking some decisive part, it resolved to act.with the greatest severity. The Queen has been arrested at Queluz, four leagues from Lisbon, and nobody is allowed to enter the town, either men or women, ,without being closely examined, and obliged to declare his or her business. The Military commander entrusted with the guard of the Queen, is obliged to sleep in a chamber close to that where she sleeps. Several persons who were going to Queluz having been examined as to the object of their visit, have also been arrested. The Patriarch, who has constantly kept himself out of sight, even while managing and directing the conspiracy, is not treated with. so much rigour. The Go vernment, however strongly it may be convinced of his being an accomplice, has been obliged to content itself with ordering him into exile. But such is the weakness of the,Reyal Govern ment, and the audacity of the party by which he is supported, that he replied openly that he would not obey the order for going into exile, and yet no ulterior measure has been taken with regard to him. All the preparatory steps for the •meeting of the Cortes of Lamego are .!finished, but the apparent power of the Queen's party is so great, that the Government does not .dare to give positive orders for the meeting of this assembly.; and it seems more than probable that this state of things will continue for some time, if we do not receive from some other source an increase of vigour, which will enable.us to silence the exaltades. The Intendant of Police is himself-one.of the coterie, which opposes so strongly the intentions •of the Go vernment ; and yet it dare not dismiss shim. The trade of Lisbon is much diminished, great misery reigns in the City, and particularly among the sailors, who, finding no occupation inconsequence of the slackness of trade, and the little demand at present for labour, and who entirely want the means of sub sistence, .with which the trade to America formerly supplied them. (From the Etoik of Friday.) PARTS, OCT. 22. 1 t is said that M. Hiesching, formerly:Editor of the German Obrerver, has been arrested at Stuttgard, and sent to the fortress of Asperg. All Paris continues to talk of the horrible murder at Vin cennes. It appears that no information r;n be obtained that Papavoinc has ever had any connection whatevetwith the pa rents of the unfortunate children who were his victims.. It is quite . unknown what induced: him to, commit the crime, but weighty circumstances are against him Herrin, the hat of the assassin, with an umbrella, and Papavoine'S hat is.broken on the upper part. The knife with which he struck the chil dren has not been found, hut the person who sold it has still eleven left, and all fit the wound like a sheath. As .to Clotilde Maservait, there is nothing to prove that she.was ac quainted with Papavoine. Time will aid in clearing up this terrible uncertainty. VIENNA, OnT. t I.—We haVe received news from Corfu,-of ' September 22. The Lord High Commissioner, Sir F re d er i c k Adam, who went to Napoli de Romania, in , the Sybille, re turned on the 26th. The object of his voyage was to obtain the revocation of the Decree passed by the Greek Government on May 27, against the vessels of the European Powers.* Admiral O'Neil (Sir H.

The Government at Napoli, on the threatening representations of • the Lord High Commissioner, revoked its Decree of May 27, with regard to. all neutral vessels which have not Turkish troops on board; whatt,Ver may 'be their cargo. • But Admiral O'Neil (Sir 11. 11. Neale),. not sullied with this resolution, de manded the complete andmineserved revocation of the whole Decree. In consequence of this another resolution was taken on Sept. 15th, anti as there is no printing press at Napoli de .Romania, it was published and stuck up in manuscript.t PARIS, 0CT.•22 —VRENCIL Furrns.--Five per 'Cents. 102 f. 60c.—Bank Stock, I,97.sf.—Neapolitan Jfive per Centn.

Commis sioner, General Adam, who on the Bth of this month went to Napoli de Romania, on board the Sybille frigate, returned the day before yesterday. .The object of his voyage.was, according to the proclamation issued on the Bth, (see Austrian Observer of the 28th of September), to obtain the revocation of the Greek decree of the 27th of May, against the merchant ships of the European Powers. Admiral O'Neil (Sir H. B. Neale) com manded the British squadron which had entered the Archi pelago on this occasion. The Government at Napoli di Romania, on the first menacing representations of the Govern ment.of the lonian Islands, had published, on the 27th of August, a resolution which declared the decree of the 27th of May revoked, with regard to all neutral ships that had not Turkish troops on hoard. Admiral O'Neil (Sir IL B. Neale), not satisfied with this resolution, demanded, on .his arrival before Napoli, the unconditional and complete revocation of the original decree. Hereupon, within a few hours, on the 3d ( lath) of September, another resolution was taken, which as. there is.at present no printing-oflice at Napoli, was published and posted up in manuscript, and which, in short but precise and positive terms, revokes the decrees of the 27th of Ma . Y ( Austrian Observer, Oct. 110 . 'ivaix, Oct. • 14.—The .Uiario di 'Roma of the .Gth has the two following statements, which may be compared with that from Florence of the 9th, in our last number.

The Captain says, there had been great tejoicings at Napoli di Romani for a naval victory over the Turks. CORFU,SEPT. 22.—1 t was announced on the Bth of thi, month, that the Egyptain fleet had been obliged by the plague to return to Alexandria. We now know, from an authentic source, that this operation of the Egyptains was a feigned re treat, which Adruiral.3littulis perceiving, resolved to attack it ; and though his ships were much inferior in number and size to those of the enemy, he succeeded in dispersing . the fleet, after having burnt a frigate, two corvetts, a brig, and fourteen tran ports.—(Gazette.Pientonlcse,' Oct. 14.)

Sir .Thomas Staines, K.C.8., which ship was proceeding to join the squadron in the Tagus. Both ships left Barbadoes on the 91st July, intending to pass the hurricane months at Bermuda, but orders arriving shortly after they left, changing their destination to England, the Scout . was dispatched_ by Capt. Lawrence, C.B. of the Eden, senior Officer on the station, to Bermuda, with the orders : ut that time the squadron were all very healthy in the West Indies.—The Ganges encountered a continued series of strong easterly gales, one of which was of great severity in the chops of the Channel, durin g w hich (three days) she lay to under a try sail. The severe weathes . proved, as well the good qualities of the shin as of the new main mast, which is constructed on the principles of Sir Robert Seppings.

COURT NEWC—The King heard mass in the chapel, of the Castle. The 'Change will be shut on Monday next, being the day of the interment of the remains of the late King. The Gazette of Augsburg of the 18th gives a HAMPSHIRE PITT CLUB. WINCH E$T E , Oc'r, 23.—The Anniversary of the Hampshire Pitt Club was celebrated in this city on Thurs day, the 21st instant, being also the Anniversary of the Vic tory of Trafalgar, which has been selected for the occasion as one of the glorious results of the Administration of the great and good Minister to whose memory' the day was devoted. It may certainly now be the pride and boast of those who have so long and so uniformly supported the political principles of the late Mr. PITT, that adherence to those principles by the present Administration has brought this country to that state of prospe rity at home, and respect for it abroad, that it now so emi nently enjoys, and fixed its credit on an immoveable basis, whilst agriculture and commerce have both in their turn been relieved from a great part of the burthens to which they were unavoidably subjected through the late arduous but ultimately successful war. Nor have the great body of the people gone without their share of relief, by the taking off a large portion of the assessed taxes, and those too that most affected the middle and lower classes of the people.— It is true, as has been observed, universal satisfaction seems now to be felt and expressed, from whence some argue, that those meetings are unnecessary; but the disciples of Mr. Pitt think otherwise, and that the best way of continuing the good effects of his principles is to be frequently reminded of them, and to show our gratitude by frequent tributes of respect and regard to his memory, There were present at the Meeting, the President, the Rev. Archdeacon Hook, the Vice-President A. R. 4)ottin, Esq., Thomas Ilerdmore, Robert Shedder, jun. and Henry Master man, Esqrs. three of the Stewards. the Hon. and Rev.

Walter Hook and George Deane, the Rev. Thomaa Watkins and Thomas Westcomb, &c. as visitors, Captain Rainier, R.N. was elected a Member, and joined the Club at dinner, and was chosen as Steward, in the place of the ono that goes out by rotation. " The King," " The Duke of York and the Army," " The Duke of Clarence and the Navy," and other standing toasts of the Pitt Club, with a succession of loyal *and patriotic tiiists, including those of " The Duke of Wellington (%:lio last year became a Member) and the Heroes of Waterloo," " The Me mory of Lord Nelson and the heroes of Trafalgar," were drank with the respect and enthusiasm characteristic of Englishmen, and the utmost harmony and good fellowship was kept up till ten o'clock, when the company separated. The dinner was served up in a manner that was creditable to Staning, and the wines and dessert were much approved. A. R. DoT TIN, Esq., will be the President for the ensuing year. WHIG, CLUB.
