FRENCH PAPERS. (Front the Moniteur of IWonciay,Oet.lo.) The Official Part contains a report to the King, signed by Count de Chabrole, relative to the composition of the Royal Navy, and the ne cessity of having recourse to another mode of recruiting, in order to ensure the equipment of his Majesty's ships. " The insufficiency of the old mode, says the report, was long felt, and the only means of turn ing the resources offered by the population of the interior of the kingdom to the use of the naval service, was to form permanent crews, consisting of men engaged for a certain number of years, and governed by a military organization. To try the application of this system, the ordinance of the 13th of November, 18'22, and the 11th of August, 1824, presented the formation of four crews of the line" (equipages de ligne.) But as voluntary enrolment, by which it was thought fit to begin the trial, did not produce re sults proportioned to the wants of the navy, it was necessary to afford more abundant sources for recruiting the navy, by makin ,, it partake in calls made every year for the land service : this measure was consecrated by the law of the 9th of June, 1824. As the execution of the law was to give a greater extent to the system of crews of the line, the Minister examined the 'composition of four crews already formed, and the mode in which they are governed, to see whether they were perceptible of any improvement. He has been led, in consequence, to draw up a plan for the organization of marine, which he submits to his Majesty in the form of a Royal Ordinance. This ordinance, annexed to the report, is in 14 heads, containing 121 articles, and fills a whole sheet of the Moniteur. An order, signed by the Dauphin, as Admiral of France, enjoining all whom it concerns to see to the execution of the ordinance, is annexed, as well as a table of the rates of pay. (From the Etoik, dated Tuaday, Oct. 11. ) Pkllls, OCT. 10.—We are assured at this mo ment that the conferences between Baron Masliau and the Envoy from Hayti, give reason to hope the most favourable results for the commerce of both countries. Jerusalem and Bethlehem have revolted, in consequence of the extortions which the Pacha of Damascus after his departure has continued to have exercised towards all the inhabitants of the several convents, by means of the Governor of Jerusalem. The Bethlemites had agreed with -the Government for a sum of 30 purses, and had delivered to him three hostages as security for 4.he payment. But having been informed that they ran the risk of being exposed to further extortions, and that the garrison of Jerusalem was against them, they laid an ambush which succeeded. As soon as the troops were out of the city, they entered it, and closed the gates, and iii concert with the inhabitants dictated laws to the Government, leaving him, however, the .choice either to continue his functions with the people he had remaining, or to go and join his Pasha. At the same time other persons of Beth lebem, reinforced by Arabs and peasants, fell upon the troops, which not being able to enter Jerusalem, were completely dispersed. Thus the holy land is exposed to new sacrifices. The Ilospodar of Moldavia has just visited some districts. Ile was twelve days absent from Jassy. The object of his journey was to found a church of which he had laid the first stone, ac cording to custom. The peasants of several districts represented to the Prince that they had nothing at all, and that it is impossible for them to pay the taxes by which they are oppressed. Incredible cruelties are exercised towards them. Several of these unhappy people complained that they had been fettered, and shut up ii► their sebterraneous huts by officers of the Treasury. ( From the Journal des Delia:: of Monday.) MADRID, SEPT. 29.—The Consultive Junta of the Go vernment, which was installed on the 21th, began its operations yesterday, in a representation addressed to the King, in which his Majesty is told that the ignorance of some and the inexpe rience of the greater number of crown officers, whom circum stances have placed in the different branches of the public ad ministration, are particularly hurtful to public business, both from the bad principles upon which it is conducted, and the de lays occasioned by it. The Junta concludes by proposing dif ferent changes in all the offices of Government.—The following are the questions which the Ministers have laid for examination before the Junta : Ist. Is it advisable to publish an amnesty, and how far ought it to extend in order to obtain the double object of calming the public mind without compromising the rights of the throne ? 2d. What would be the means of pacifying our colonies, and bringing them under the Government of the Mother Country ? 3d. Who are the persons who might facilitate the negocia tion of a loan, and render the conditions less burdensome ? 4th. Is it advisable totally to suppress the system of purifi eition, or would it be better merely to modify it ? and in that cue what would be the modifications advisable to be made ? Such, you may rely upon it, is the sense of the problems our Ministers have proposed for solution to the Consultive Junta. It will be seen by the second of these questions, that we may expect to see the negociations entered into by some Cabinets, and actively pressed by their representatives at our Court, to lead our Government to consent to some plan for the emancipa tion of our old American possessions, and more particularly of th'►se composing the Governments of Colombia and Mexico, fall to the ground. Strong detachments of troops of the line, drawn from the garrisons of Burgos, Valladolid, and Segovia, have been sent in pursuit of Ortiguela's band, which freely traverses the moun tains of Burgos, and every where proclaim Charles V. The forces of which this band is composed must be very consider able if we may judge from the number of troops sent in its pursuit. In order to reward the zeal of M. Melgar, Bishop of Ceuta, who, in his extraordinary mission for the re-organization of our Universities has so well managed, that 01l the Professors' chairs are either filled with Jesuits or their creatures, the Bishopric of Tuy, in Galicia, has been bestowed upon him ; it is the richest of the four Bishoptics in that province. The UniversitieS do not, however, satisfy the Jesuits ; they wish to have all the establishments for education in their own hands, and towards it they have obtained exclusively that of the Nobility, known by the name of-the " Noblemen's Semi: nary," and as the old building of that seat of instructions is in a very bad state, because since it has either served as a barrack or a prison, funds have been placed at the disposal of the Reverend Fathers in order to repair it. It is to be ready by the beginning of next year. The Royalist Volunteers of this town, both cavalry and in fantry, who are to be on duty near his Majesty on the Ist Oc tober, the anniversary of his Majesty's liberation from Cadiz, set out yesterday for the'Eacurial, whence they are to return on the 3d. Our to-day's Gazette has the following article : " Sire—Your Consultive Junta of the Government, in the first moments of its installation, hesitates in its words, and still more so in its actions; and its members, grateful for the honour and confidence placed in them by your Majesty, are alternately agitated by gratitude and the fear inspired by their incapacity. " Sire—Your Majesty points us out the way to obtain that happiness your Majesty desires for your people. We are like wise charged to propose the means to attain it, and also to serve as an auxiliary to your Majesty's Council of Ministers. " Sire—You, your Government, and Spain, want other i guides than us; but we dare assure your Majesty, more loyal or faithful hearts could not have been chosen. " Sire, we will be indefatigable in our work ; we will seek for assistance wherever it may be found ; and, faithful ob servers of your Majesty's commands, we will hide or dissimu late nothing ; our sincerity and our frankness will never be stopped by private considerations or interests, nor by par tiality or party spirit; the fear of the enmity or persecution which truth often draws will never shake our integrity, for we will brave them with constancy and courage. Your Majesty's glory, the splendour and perpetuity of your dynasty, the in tegrity of your hereditary dominions, the decorum of the Royal Family, the indissoluble union of the empire and the church, the replacing of the Spanish nation in its ancient rank among nations, the protection of private property, and its con nection with that of the State and the Government, the repara tion of the losses and damages we have sustained, the due dis tribution of taxes and contributable means, the consolidation of public credit, the means of making good the deficit, the extinc tion of all but indispensable expences, the accumulation of sa laries and pensions, economy without poverty, and lastly, the reforms and modifications necessary to raise the nation without oppressing the subject; such will be, Sire, the constant ob jects of the Consultive Junta, and its rule for their attainment your Majesty's will and the advice of your Counsel of Minis ters. Sooner than depart from these objects the members of the Junta will perish a thousand times. " We humbly pray your Majesty ‘o deign graciously to ac cept the first homage of our gratitude, our obedience, and our loyalty. " Madrid, Sept. 26, 1825."

At the dinner given by ThomAs CLAY, Esq. on entering upon the arduous duties of the Mayoralty of Bury, the Earl of BRISTOL, early after dinner, rose to propose the health of the Bishop of CHESTER. " Owing to circumstances' which have transpired since 1 had the honour of addressing you on the occasion of this health being given here," said the Noble Lord, " I feel myself imperatively called upon to say a few words respecting that illustrious Prelate and myself. It has ; been basely attempted, by one or more of the public prints, to throw obloquy upon the character of the Bishop of Chester by various surmises and assertions, to the effect that he had, in rank ing himself with the opponents of the Catholic Claims,' de serted his early professions and his earlyiriends,when lie found that, by doing so, he could promote his views of aggrandise inent. There never," said. the Earl, in a most animated and impressive tone, " there never was a more false or unfound ed assertion suffered to disgrace the public press. I can declare, and I now declare it upon my honour, that at no period of my acquaintance with Dr. Bloomfield, had I the slightest idea of the Catholic cause ever finding, in him, an advocate : so far to the contrary, the open expression of his sentiments at all times, and on all occasions, with respect to this important subject, left me full reason to know that he would be found a most decided as well as a most powerful opponent to granting further privileges to the Catholics. Having thus discharged a duty incumbent upon me to an individual for whom I retain so ardent an affection, and who, by his conduct on this very question, instead of lessen ing, has increased my esteem for him—my admiration of his talents and virtue—l think it necessary to add a few words as explanatory of my reasons for supporting the petition of the Roman Catholics." After submitting to those of his tried friends present, that there was no more strenuous enemy than himself to those visionary schemes ofinnovation which had, at one period of history, nearly brought ruin upon this empire, the Noble Lord at some length avowed that he was still inclined to give his sup port to the claims of the Catholics, but only on the principle that, in his opinion, no danger could accrue from extending their privilege to an equality with the other subjects of the country, either to the state, or to any one of its venerated insti tutions. Ile then concluded a speech, which, for animation and eloquence, we have seldom heard equalled, and which we ex ceedingly regret our inability to do justice to, by proposing the health of the Bishop of Chester, which was drank with accla mation. 4 L ~ ..,, - 1 - :` _.t . -- -_-_- k J :---- -g -- * v - --'- / - 7,-e:' ,,,-- *. .e / eff.:‘,o .z. -- . . - \ MASONIC NOTICES FOR NEXT WEEK.

We mentioned a few weeks hack the circum stance of Dr. LUSCOMBE being lately consecrated by the Scottish Bishops, and sent to the Continent for ecclesiastical purposes : he has there confirmed several descendants of Bri tish subjects. , Dr. Luscornbe" was ordained Deacon and Priest in the English Church, and now resides in Paris : he was con secrated Bishop in the chapel in Stirling, and the sermon preached on that occasion was by the Reverend Mr. Hook, son of the Dean of Worcester. A recent institution has been formed in Edinburgh, through the munificent bequest of a lady, amounting to some thousand pounds, for the purpose of en dowing an Episcopalian Theological Professorship, to be en joyed by an A.M. of Oxford or Cambridge,- subject to the controul of the Scottish Bishops. The first lectures were given last season, and are to be there continued annually. It is thought such a system will be of great benefit to students who cannot afford an University education, and at the same time produce able candidates for an episcopal ministry. We hope that the elperiment tried at the late Assize for the county of Berks v ill become general throughout the United Kingdom, and also at the Quarter Sessions. We mean the distinguishing in the calendars the prisoners who cannot read or write from those who can. It will then be seen how useful the National School system really is. Where the statement was made, it was in favour of that excellent institution. We stated in our last that Mr. Baylay had withdrawn his pretensions as a candidate for the representation of Taunton, and that Mr. Seymour had offered himself in his stead. Mr. Baylay has since put forth an address, in which he asserts that his resignation was forced on him by his own Committee, and pledges himself; on the faith of the promises of support of a large portion of the electors, to stand the poll. The Committee have issued a counter-statement, denying Mr. Baylay's asser tions, and referring to the resignation under his own signature, In the mean time Mr. Cresswell, of Pinckney Park, Wilts, brother of the R everen d H. C resswe ll, v i car o f Creech Saint Michael, has can vasse d t h e t ow n, an d d ec l ares his intention to stand the poll.--(Bath Chronicle.) It appears by the Paris Papers of Monday that there %%as a disturbance at Rouen when General LAFAYETTE passed through that town. Ile dined with M. Cabanon, one of his old colleagues in the Chamber of D e p u ti es . M ore than 1,000 persons assembled in front of the house in the evening, shouting " Vive Lafayette !" Th e police thought fit to call out the gendarmerie to clear the street. The populace were charged with drawn sabres, and many were injured. The Elate of Wednesday was received this morning by express. It does not contain any intelligence of moment. Letters from Salonica, dated 26111 August, and published in the Male, say, that the Capita!' PACHA, whilst engag ed in disembarking some men to assigt the Seraskier in his siege of Missolonghi, had been compelled to a precipitate flight by the sudden appearance of the Greek fleet. Thu Al banian forces, it is added, were much dispirited by the reverses they met with. The situa tion, too, of IsitAnim in the Morea was represented as extremely critical, as the whole country, assisted by the Maniotes, had risen, and obliged him to retire into Tripo lizza. Letters from Corfu represent the in surrection in Candia as having made great progress. The insurgents had been reinforced by the arrival of 2,500 Greek islanders, who brought with them a large quantity of arms and munitions. Mi,solonghi was, however still besieged by land, notwithstanding the blockade on the sea side wad completely raised. This intelligence but increases our embarrass ments as to the real state of the Greeks and Turks, and adds but very little to our previous information on the subject. Far from clearing up the doubts that prevail as to the real state of the war in the Morea, or throwing the least light upon the movements of the hostile armies it only augments the confusion, and involves us still deeper in the d.ak on this interesting point. The policy of the different States of Europe depends so much on the course of events there, that we look with some impatience for authentiC information. The Paris Papers of Wednesday continue the discussions on the late Proclamation of the King of ENGLAND, and the opinions expressed by the diferent editors are almost as various as the papers themselves. By some it is ►egarded as an act of submission to Turkey, and made the vehicle of much unmeaning abuse, others call it a sacrifice to the Holy Alliance, and others again characterise it as it really is, an act of justice due to the belligerent powers. The intelligence from Madrid, contained in these Papers, is of a satisfactory character, and goes far to confirm us in the opinion we lately expressed, that the eyes of FERDINAND are opening to the real state of his unfortunate dominions. If the consultative Junta shall pur sue their inquiries with firmness, and decide upon the questions submitted to their consideration, unbiassed by party, and with the public good only before them, much benefit may be derived from their deliberations, especially if their opi nions are acted upon with energy, and the Mi nisters will follow up their recommendations. We are almost afraid so much honesty is not to be found among the Members of the Consulta tive Junta, and that methods will be adopted to sway their decisions, and bend them to the inte rests of any particular party which may happen to have the upper hand. Three questions have been submitted to their consideration, viz. Fitts; What are the means calculated to conciliate the colonies, and induce them again to submit to the Mother Country? SECOND, Wha t means should be adopted to facilitate the negociation of a loan, and to render its conditions as little onerous as may be ? TuinD, Whether it would be best totally to suppress the system of purification, or at first only to modify it, and if the latter what modifications they would recommend The first of these questions they need not trouble themselves much about. Any consideration of the point would only be so much time lost, because any recommendations they could make would be vain and fruitless. The second too is quite as easily disposed of, for a loan on almost any terms to Spain could hardly be deemed onerous. Tho last is the most momentous of the whole, and the only one, as it appears to us, worthy of a moment's deliberation, and that not so much with reference to the question of purification or no purification, but only so far as it indirectly relates to the state of the parties in Spain, and the state of Spain itself. When we consider this point, our hopes diminish apace, for we doubt the Absolute KING would scarcely submit to the only policy which could re-assure his Crown, and quiet his distracted People. Letters from Missolonghi to the 22d July state, that the plague had manifested itself at Modon and Navarino. The flag of the Crescent was, it is said, displayed upon the ramparts of Napoli de Malvoisie. Six Greek vessels which were at anchor before the town had fallen into the hands of IBRAHIM PACHA. In addition to this news from Greece, we have made the follo‘sing extracts from the Aiken:eine Zeitung and Frankfort Papers of the 6th instant. That from the Allgemeine Zeitung is repeated in the French Papers of Wednesday as an extract from the Augsburg Gazette. CON6TANTINOPLE, SEPT. 10. It is indeed affirmed that Ibrahim Pacha has left Tripolizza, aid returned to Navarin, where he will wait for the reinforce ments that the Capt. Pacha is to bring to him ; but this report does not seem to deserve any credit. Redschid Pacha, not withstanding his losses, is still before illissolonghi, and the siege is not raised. We hare no other news here. CANEA, JULY 24.—( Prom the Oriental Spectator.) The Egyptians have taken the command of our place. A Greek, who has turned Turk, has come here to give informa tion of a conspiracy formed by the Greeks against the lurks, which was to break out in a village which he named : a priest ( Papas) was said to be at the head of this conspiracy, the ra mifications of which are unknown. The armed forces proceeded to the spot, and succeeded in discovering between 200 and 250 muskets which wereconcealecl. This circumstance is aggravating because protection was granted to the Greeks after the island was subjected, andevery thing was replaced on its former footing but to prevent any fresh sedition, proclamation was made at Canea and every where else, twice a week, for some time, that every Greek who had arms in his possession should deliver them up to the local Authorities on pain of death. Twenty-five persoms have been arrested in the village, on the information of the above Greek. He was himself implicated in the conspiracy, and discovered it on embracing the Musselman faith. These 25 Greeks are in prison, but no sentence has yet been passed on them. The plague has not wholly ceased, and at intervals of 10 days cases still occur. Brussels Papers which arrived this morning have nothing of interest in them. The following are extracts : BILIISSELS, OCT. 7. It is affirmed that the ch•il code will be entirely completed in the approaching Session of the States-General, and that the project of law on the codes of Commerce and of judicial pro ceedings, as well as a law on the Burgher-Guard, will be laid before the States-General.
