FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Etoile,dated Wednesday, Dec. 28.) CADIZ, DEC. 10.—It is not only in the North that the fury of the elements has been felt. Since the dth of this month we have had a tempest such as hag not occurred within the memory of man. in the night of the sth the rain fell in torrents : the day of the 6th was not quite so dark as the night which preceded it : the whole horizon was loaded with heavy dark clouds, and the rain con tinued. At nine in the evening a rapid fall of the barometer announced a hurricane, and in a few -minutes the north-west wind arose so violent, -that the windows of the. houses were driven in, -the doors wrenched from their hinges, the china- Ries thrown down, the celebrated tower blown down, the trees torn up by the roots, and even the most solid substances -became the sport. of the elements. • The houses damaged were innumerable, and the losses immense ; hat it is principally in the Bay that the devastation has taken place, especially from the month of the San Pedro to the Trocadere.— T here .the following vessels were violently driven ashore :—The Buenos Amigos, of the house of Picardo ; the American frigate Tea Plant; the Spanish frigate Asirea; an American schooner, and a Dutch vessel: A schooner .and two brigs were sunk in the Bay itself l ; 12 other vessels s: ere thrown on the coast ; the Spanish brig Loreto lost her mizen-mast. A very few of these I , essels will tie able to repair their damages; the others are totally lost. it is not yet known how many iiersonS have perished by. this disaster. Pattiz, Dec. 27.—The Monileur of this morn ing contains a Royal Ordinance, granting a par don to the following condemned persons :—Ben jamin Foure. Felix Cosin, Gaspard Lavaca!, and Joachim Arthaud. They are to remain for five yt•ars under the surveillance of the high Police. t is thought that the Emperor Constantine will be crowned at Moscow after the mourning. Lord-Cochrane is at present at Brussels. We learn from Constantinople, by a letter of the 27th of November, that Count Guilleminot, ,he French Ambassador to the Ottoman Porte, hls just lost, in the most deplorable manner, his only remaining son. Young Eugene Guille rninot was shooting in the environs of Constan tinople ; he let his fowling piece drop, which went off and shattered his arrn ; the surgeons of the em bassy extracted eighty shot, but tetanus ensued; it was hoped to remove it by the amputation of the arm, but the most alarming symptoms re turned, and the unfortunate young man died at z e end of 24 days, after the most dreadful suf frings. lie bore them with the greatest courage, 4mly exclaiming—'' Had I but fallen wider the fire of the enemy, and in the sight of the Prince!" e had distinguished himself on several occa ions in the last war in Spain.

[FATIIACT OF A LETTER.] " CADIZ, DEC. 9.—On the morning of the 7th 1 iaet., the Bay of Cadiz exhibited a scene of the greatest disaster which has occurred here since 1810. On the 4th and sth the weather, was cloudy, with occasional falls of rain, accompanied with thunder and lightning ; and on the night of the 6th, at 10 p.m., the wind rose to almost a hurricane, during which gale several vessels in the bay went on shore on the opposite coast, in different directions. The Tea Plant, of New York, a vary fine ship, which had but a few days before anchored in the bay, from Havannah, with a valuable cargo of sugars, broke from her cain moorings, and went on shore nearly at the mouth of the river San Pedro, which runs into the bay of Cadiz, between the Trocadaro and Puerto Santa Maria. At five this evening she was still fast, with a heavy cargo in, and a high sea running; no lighters could approach her for the pur pose of unloading. " At the same time, and nearly in the same situation, an American brig went on shore ; but as she was in ballast, and the gale setting in at high water, she is so far beyond the breakers, that it is to be hoped she will be got off without much damage. Several Spanish Manilla vessels went on shore above Puntales, and one American brig run nearly into a salt-pit, close to the Isla. " A circumstance more unfortunate than any occurred to the American schooner Rehoboth, belonging to Mr. Hormo aeK, of New York, laden with cocoa, from Caraccas. " On the morning of the gale she had moved up towards PUntales, there being better anchorage and smoother water in that situation, and as the schooner was short outlier first voyage, the Captain, an old experienced sailor of 38 years standing, fhresccing the storm approach, made the best point in the bar -hour he possible could; but with all human precaution, it was his fate to see his vessel become a total wreck. " At half-past ten at night, heavy rain and lightning, a squal ieame, when all hands were on deck, which sent the schooner in an instant on her beam ends, and in less than five minutes more she was keel uppermost. During this disaster the men regained her bottom, but the .captain being a little more unfortunate than the rest, was thrown with considerable violence into the sea, but he, too, escaped the perils of the deep, by getting hold of a cable, which caught him in the flood, by which he was enabled to regain the vessel, after a most painful exertion of an hour in the water.— The captain and crew were in this situation from half-past eleven o'clock till two in the morning, not knowing but every moment would be their last, with eyes fixed upon the heaveny .• and prayers offered to him " Whose hand the lightning forms, " Who heaves old ocean, and who wings the storms.". " The Almighty seemed, on this occasion, to have armed one . of his creatures with sufficient courage to rescue the unfortunate crew of this vessel from inevitable destruction. " M. Bezeres, master of the French merchant brig Con stance, not lying far from the scene of disaster, who was anx iously walking the (leek about one in the morning, at which period the wind was somewhat abated, but a heavy sea rolling, perceived at a distance the wreck of the schooner, and the crew upon her keel: the brave Bezeres lost not a moment in calling his men forward, to induce them to volunteer their services to rescue their fellow-creatures from untimely end ; the men, as brave • as himself, instantly complied, the boat was lowered, the Captain . of the La Constance entered with four of his men, fearless of death, and in defiance of the storms, succeeded in reaching the wreck of the schooner at two in the morning, to the agreeable sur . prise of the unfortunate men, who were now taken into the boat, .and arrived safe at La Constance,where they were furnished with dry clothes, and entertained in a most liberal manner during that night, and the next day ; and yesterday they were landed •at Pontales, the weather.being less tempestuous. It is not yet .known the extent of destruction, as all the vessels are still on shore, and no appearance of fine weather. One of the French frigates dragged, though she was moored with four anchors and cables ; but, very fortunately, as yet no accident has oc curred to any English vessel in the bay, though several are .full of wine for London, detailed from sailing by contrary winds. " It was expected here this morning that the shipping in Gibraltar suffered considerable damage during the gale of the 4;ch.” The following is an extract from the Nefound land Gazette of the 29th of November, received yesterday morning :—" The British Board of Surveyors have reported that there are above 12,000 islands iu Lake Huron." CORN LAWS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Stn—ln your Paper of ;Monday last 1 per ceived the Report of a Meeting at Lincoln, called by the !till Sheriff or the County, for the purpose of tnking into consideration the expe diency of petitioning Parliament on the expected agitation of the Corn Laws. Really, Mr. Editor, it would have been more in character, if those landed proprietors had agreed to petition against the ruinous paper system, which has already created so much con fusion in the country, than to keep up the ne cessaries of life, already raised to nearly double the prices they had been at 30 years ago. This measure has no doubt raised their rentals and created high prices. It has filled the Work houses, by the pauperism of the working classes ; it has created false credit and false capital ; it has converted the commercial interests to gam bling adventurers, and driven many families to total destruction. • Still the land owners in Lin coln wish to keep up the delusion, and try to to persuade the farmers that prohibitory, measures are best adapted to their comforts. I tell (hem the contrary is the fact. Every class of Society suffers by a continuance of the War Taxes ten years after the Peace, as they do by the heavy and oppressive Tythe Job bing, which increases with the rack rents. These instead of the Corn Laws are the causes of the paper deluge. The Revolutions proposed by a Mr. J. C. L. Calcraft, are a truly Unique Com position although unanimously agreed to. The last .was—to petition Parliament against the Importation of Foreign Corn : The second—that the country produced more corn than was %canted : The third—that no protecting duty could he imposed which would act as a security to the Farmer. Upon the first Resolution, my remarks on the causes of distress, and the paper system, answer the thing fully. Upon the second, If the country produce more corn than is wanted, why are the prices so much higher than they should be, or what I have known them to he, before the rack-rents axisted, and the country bankers issued their worthless paper. The third Resolution is a most ridiculous com position, for if no protecting duty on the impor tation of grain can serve the farmer, they may as well petition to have the ports closed for ever, even should a famine add to our future misfor tunes. The late smashing amongst the paper money dealers should have taught the Lincoln Gentle men better, and pointed out the necessity of lowering their rents, in place of holding out lures to pauperism, for surely farmers have not leis profit on their capital employed than they had before the year 1794, or the commencement of the One Pound note currency, %%hich had nearly involved the monied interest into a state of bankruptcy, from %%hid' it is supposed it has so lately emerged. If the Lincoln Gentlemen wish to effect a measure of general good to the nation at large, let them petition to have that currency which inundates the country towns with distress en tirely prohibited, and then they will do as they should do. Lincoln, Dec. 2(. THE FOUR POUND LOAF. CURIOUS PETITION. (Franz the Progresses, Processions, and Magn;ficent Enter tainments (f KINGJAMES I. V. by .1. Nicuo 1., F.A.S.) The following singular Petition, was presented to the King at an entertainment at Theobald's, by a young Gentleman: — The Poore I►irrz's Petition to the Kinge at Theobald's,the 171 h of April 1603.

A trunk containing property to the amount of 1001., consistinf; of trinkets, linen, apparel, &c. was cut away from the travelling chariot of Mrs. MONTGOMERY, of May-fair, on her return from Tnnbride Wells on Wednesday evening, not withstanding it was secured by patent slides. The robbery was committed between the Green Man Turnpike-gate and Charing-cross, it being all safe at the former place. f,FADING. ELEtrToNrEnING.—At a respectable and nu merous tneetini; of the Inhabitants of Reading., held at the Horse and Jockey, in that town, on Tuesday even last, 'Mr. DA Er, 'WA to:YIELD in the Chair, it Nt as resolved " That as the. present Represrntatives did not exert thvseives for the benefit of the town, it became them to elect one that would." Mr. D. W., in a short speech, in troduced brother, Mr. Edward Wakefield, to theiC-1101ke, %rho addressed them as follows: " GENT LEMEN,—Although not personally acquainted with every individual in the room, I am happy to see so respectable , a body congregate for the purpose of securing my election to represent in Parliament this ancient and honourable Borough. Gentlemen, I have not resided long amongst you, but my Brother has been your neighbour for upward', of thirty. years ; you know his principles—you shall know mine. In a time like the present, it is an imperative duty on public men to de clare openly the principles which govern them, and to act on those principles. The commercial difficulty under which so great a portion of the nation labours is only temporary, I ant in hope that that panic will subside in a few days which threat ened to overwhelm in its course every Banking Establishment in the kingdom. In such a trying crisis lam happy to state, and I do it with confidence, that the Bank of England and the Ministers of the Crown have done their duty manfully, and fully confirmed that confidence which malevolence has vainly endeavoured to destroy. Should my ambition be crowned with success, I pledge myself to stand by you to the last—l will stand by the ship as long as she can float, and when she sinks I will sink with her. Gentlemen, I take a pride in saying that with the last drop of blood in my veins I will uphold the House of Brunswick and the Protestant Religion.—( Loud and con tinued applause.)—You know my conduct in private life ; by it you may judge whether or not 1 am a fit person to represent you in Parliament. It has been said if I am unsuccessful in this struggle it is my intention to retire from amongst you ; I solemnly deny it ; I hope to live the remainder of my days amongst you and in your service." Mr. Edward 'Wakefield having sat down, his health was drank with three tims three•, and the meeting adjourned until `Tuesday the 101 h of January next, at the hour of nine in the ereaing. THE EARL OF DONOUGIIMORE. 'l'hn foliowowing Answer has been sent by the Earl of DoNouGumoitu to the Rev. Dr. COLLINi, Who wit, authorised to communicate to his Lord. ship the Resolution of Condolence upon the death Of ihe late Lord Denoughmore, which was passed at the last Meeting of the British Catholics : " Palmerston House, Dec. 8, 1825. " M Y DEAR SIR—I have the honour of your conauunica tion, inclosing the Resolution of the British Catholic Asso ciation, expressing their sorrow for the death of my late brother, and lamenting that event as a calamity to their cause in the name of the British Catholics. " I received this Resolution with those feelings, which it is so well calculated to excite, coming from a body so justly re spected, which contains amongst its members many distin guished names, sonic of whom are connected with the proudest achievements of our ancestors, both in the Naval and Military service, and with those of the brave assertors and founders of the charterc-d liberties of England. " Under tide impression, and bearing towards the Englisk Catholics the most sincere respect, I accept with moth gratifi cation this testimony of their regard to me and to my family, and to the inemory cf my late brother, whose uncompromising firmness upon the Catholic question, during the whole of his course in Parliament, i 3 not more remarkable titan the manly and Unaffected zeal with which he maintained this important subject to the latest hour of his life. " I would say of the British Catholics, that the respected descendants of those who founded the Chartered Liberties or England, ought not to be excluded from the pale of the Consti tion, and it is my firm opinion that the Empire cannot fully enjoy the blessings of security and peace until this great ques tion shall be set at rest. I have the honour to be, dear Sir, " With great regard, your most faithnil humble servant, " DONOUGIDIORE." CIIIMTNAL LA WS OF SOUTH CAROLINA.—The fotliming are extracts from the Mesmag,e of Ole Governor of South Carolina to the Legislature of that State : Few things so much deserve your earnest and profound deliberation as the criminal laws of this State—they certainly require change. First—Because punishments are not graduated to crimes ; Secondly—Because the very ends of justice are defeated by too severe inflictions. And thirdly—Because they impose upon the judicial and executive branches of your Governmcst the painful and un happy necessity of carrying into effect laws which they must feel and acknowledge to be beyond expediency or the mea sure of•justice. - The laws relating to the trial of slaves and persons of co lour call for modification. First—Capital offenders should be allowed the right of trial by a jury of twelve men, and the right of challenge through the owner or guardian. Secondly—That all trials should take place at the District Court House, where the correcting Influence of the public eye, and of public opinion, should guard over the ilivctluable treasure of life. _ _ . Thirdly—Execution by burning should be prohibited by positive legislative enactment, as a disgraceful relic of the dark Fourthly—Time should be allowed by the sentence of the Court for Application to be made to the executive for the exer cise of his prerogative of pardon. A modification, ro as to em brace these important legal provisions, is not only dictated by natural and moral justice, but by the spirit of our institutions, and by the sanction of public opinion in South Carolina. RACINE AND lIIS FAMILY.—The celebrated French poet RActNo, having one day just re turned from Versailles, s'nere be had been on a visit ) was waited upot► by a gentleman, with an invitation to dine at the Hotel de Conde. " 1 cannot possibly have the honour to go there," said the poet "it is a week since 1 have been with my wife and children ; they are overjoyed to see.me again, and have provided a tine carp, so that 1 mast dine with those dear relations." " But, my good Sir, replied the gentler►►;►►," several of the most distinguished characters in the kingdom expect your company, and will be very glad to see you." On this, Racine brought out the carp, and showed it to his visitor, saying " Here, Sir, is our little meal ; then say, having provided such a treat for me, what apology could I make for not dining- with my poor children ? Neither they nor my wife could have any plea sure in eating a bit of it without me ; pray be so obliging as to mention my excuse to the Prince of Conde, and my other illustrious friends." The gentleman did so, and not only his Serene High ness, but all the company present, professed themselves infinitely more charmed with this proof of the poet's faithful tenderness, as a hus band and a father, than they possibly could have 'been with his delightful conversation, An express from Paris arrived this morning, bringing the Etoile of yesterday, which contains the following communications from Berlin and Si. Petersborgh : " BERLIN, DEC. 9. " The Court has gone into mourning for three %Teeks for the death of the Emperor A !exander. " PARIS, DEC. 28.

Frankfort Papers to the `23cl of December have arrived, and bring us. further intelligence from Corfu, under date 15th November, a nd referring to the state of the war i❑ Greece. These accounts, notwithstanding they contain the news of some advantages gained over the Turks by the Greeks off Navarino, are, in some degree, adverse to their cause. The services of the French General A lINA ULT have been rejected ; and CoLoco- TtLoNz has, it is said, retired from the army. The news from Alissolonglii says, that the siege has been in effect raised, and the works thrown up by the Turks 'completely destroyed. 1‘ e do not, however, suppose that the intention of taking the town has been totally aban doned ; and indeed the very first paragraph of the letter from Corfu, referring to the successes of Jussur PAcIIA, would lead to a very opposite conclusion. We must, however, take leave to doubt the accuracy of some part of this infor mation, which seems altogether of a nature too extraordinary to admit of implicit credit.— The only assignable reason for the rejection of the services of the General ARNAULT and party, is the prevalence of the English faction in the Councils of the Government, but we much ques tion whether this influence can be sufficiently powerful to induce the Government, in the present state of the Greek cause, to de- PRICE OF STOCKS THIS 1)1Y AT ONE O'Cf.i)CIC Sam k Mock 214 215 3 per Cent. }Zed 3 per Cent.
