FRENCH PAPERS. The Gazette de France makes no mention of the etc couchement of the Duchess of Berry, although it was announced last night by the Ministerial paper, an an nouncement confirmed by the Moniteu r this morning. The Quotidienne declares the intelligence to be i false and ca lumnious. " The accouchemen t, " it says n plain terms, "is fabulous—a lying piece of news, for which the false declaration in the Moniteur of February 26, had prepared the way. Those who concealed themselves behind the walls of Blaye, to promulgate the decliration of Feb. 22. were liars ! and those who still hide themselves there, to give us the news of May 10, are also liars." The Augsburg Gazette of the 7th inst., contains the following of the 2d from Vienni :—" Considerable busi ness has been done on Change to-day, and the funds have improved, in consequence of peace having been concluded between the Porte and Mehemet Ali. Ihrahitn Pacha is said to have renounced Adana, contenting himself with the other territories conferred on him and his father The possession of Adana is of treat importance, on account or the excellent timber with which it abounds. Ibrahim Paella, it is stated, proposed to the Porte, is the name of his father, to make other concessions if Adana were ceded to Egypt ; but the Sultan would not listen to it. The presence of the Russian troops seems to hive inspired him with more confidence, and to have rendered him less tractable. The English Charge d'Affaires also, it is presumed, has encouraged the Sultan in his re solution not to give up Adana, as its possession by Mehe met Ali would enahle him to obtain timber for ship building, by which Egypt might be rendered a formidable maritime pow r. The state of the Turkish empire, how ever, is such, that the victorious vassal may quietly await the moment when he will obtain, without great difficulty, what be cannot now exact without evident danger. Next week the Duke of Salerno will leave Vienna for Naples ; the Duke of Lucca also will return to Lucca. Metalliques, Five per Cents., are 921; Ditto, Four per Cents., 82i; Bank Acti.sns, 1,209 2-sths." The same paper has the following intelligence of the 30th ult. from Trieste : "At the departure of the Greek steamer, which arrived here a few days since, perfect tranquillity prevailed in Greece. Decrees h.id been issued for the organization of the land and sea forces, and another was expected fur the division of the territory. The notorious Theodore Griva, who, at the time of anarchy, penetrated in Missolonglii with a body of armed men, and committed the most horrid cruelties, was arrested at Nau plia, but, by the aid of his brother, he succeeded in making his escape. Wass() Balgaro, who has been guilty of simi • hr crimes, keeps himself concealed in Maina. Pietro Bey Mauromichali is at Nauplia, but is placed tinder the surveillance of the polit e. Admiral Miaulis, who is a'so at Nauplia, has retired from the service. King Otho has t iken upon himself the chief command of the army and navy of Greece. Two corps, one of regular and the other of irregular troops, are now being formed it is said that Zevellaa and Colocotroni the younger, will be appointed their commanders. The Government has also given or ders to continue recruiting in Bavaria for the regular Greek troops. King Otho is very popular, and daily makes excursions nn horseback in the vicinity of Nauplia." The steamer Nageur, which arrived a few days ago at Toulon from Algiers, had on board the British Consul- General, who has been recalled by his Government. The ex-Consul, upon his arrival, learned that at the post-office there were despatches addressed to the "Consul-General .of England," and made an application to have them deli vered to him, but he was informed by the postmaster that they must proceed to their destination, and could only be delivered at Algiers. The 21/oniteur contains a list of the artists whose works figured at the late exhibition, on whom marks of distinc tion have been conferred. Honourable mention has been made of 99; medals of the first class have been granted to 4; of the second class to 41 ; and of the third class to 25. Works have been purchased by the civil list, or orders for works given to 108 artists.

GERMAN PAPERS. PRSTH, APRIL 26.---Th, royal rescript of the 16th o April, addressed to the Diet at Preaburg, however it may have displeased the nasjority of the members, is highly approved by all intelligent and sincere friends of the coun try. It blames with dignity, calmness, and moderation the irregular manner in which the business of the Diet has hitherto been conducted, and seriously recommends it to take into its consideration, above all things, the royal propositions which tend to promote the real advantage of the country, and to accelerate the labours of the Assem bly, and not to give its attention to useless secondary poi n ts. Those points are especially recommended which relate to the assignment of landed property to the pea santry, to the improvement of the administration of jus tice, and to making the nobility hear some part of the public burdens, and thus relieve the other inhabitants. It as evident that these rebrms (though by no means stir- Aciently extensive) would have no other than a beneficial effect, anti it is expected that they will be vehemently op posed by the great body of the aristocracy, who will not voluntarily resign any portion of their ancient privileges, and who wish to remain absolute masters in a country that calls itself free. We are anxious to see how the Government will over come this opposition. It is to be observed here, that in Hungary only, the nobility is, properly speaking, repre sented, for the deputies of the free cities act such an in significant and subordinate part in the Diet, that they are allowed to vote or not at the pleasure of the Noble Depu ti •s ! The great mass of the nation, the agricultural class, is not represented at all. Now it may reasonably be asked, eau the ❑obility he judges in their own cause? The re• ports of the troubles in Transylvania have been much exaggerated. The journey of Field-Marshal Blassils to that country, which was supposed to be in consequence of these troubles, seems to be connected with the affairs of Turkey, which renders the presence of some troops ne cosaary. Tat NSY LYA NIA. —The influenza is very prevalent here, and it is estimated that a third part of the population is more or less Zto'ted by it. S T UTGARD. MAY 2.—The Government paper of 2d May, contains the Royal Ordinance convoking an As pembly of the States. M. Pfilzer has been re elected deputy at Tuhingen, by 121 out of 143 votes. We were, therefore, mistaken if we said that he had failed, and that Dr. Wideinann was elected ; the latter is, in deed, chosen from the Upper Bailiwick only, and M. Pfi'zer for the town of Tubingen. In the district of Welzheim a very strange circumstance took place : part of the electors, instead of vo'ing for either of the candidates, gave their votes for his Majesty the King. It was in vain that the High Bailiff and the committee represented to theta that the Sovereign could not be a Member of the Chamber of Deputies. They replied that they had no confidence in any other person than their King. Accord iug to the law, it was necessary to rnter their votes on the poll book. On the second day, M. Metoch had the ma jority of valid votes. Meantime, the electors who has; e h..c.ed a deputy in such an elevated sphere, had acquired more correct notions of constitutional forms, and on the 'OV A ; day came again and voted for M. Lang, who thereby plitqineo Nhe majority; but as according to the law of elections, vote's even for persons not eligible cannot be re fused if the eectofs persist in giving them ; and as, on the ,o i tiier hand, the same 13W declares that no elector shall be adlorycd to recal or alter his vote which he his once giYea, P ues t ion arises whether the first vote is to be nonaiderecl as not having been given, or the second to be Aet4tire4 null and Nurenburg Correspondent, May 5.

LEY DEN, MAY 9.—On the 5 , h inst. a human being inen a most deplorab l e condition was found near the Levd dam, about a le a g ue and a half from this city,h and -roug_.t to the Nosocomium of the academy. He appears to be about 24 years old. His faculties seem to have remained in a state of infancy, and be stammers only a few words. It is thought that he has been kept constantly bound, as his knees are drawn up to his breast, and he cannot make use of his arms or legs. He was entirely covered with filth. One of his feet is decayed to the ancle, and of the other only some of the bcnes remain. The professors of medicine do their utmost to preserve the life of this unfor tunate individual, whose fate puts us in mind of Caspar Hauser, and whose health is in a very precarious state. MIDDLEBURG, MAY 4.—Four Belgian soldiers of the corps of Les Partisans de Flandr,:s hive lately arrived at Flushing. These men, who are Belgians by birth, give a lamentable description of the state of their army. Ex treme insubordination prevails throughout, so that captains and subaltern of f icers insult each other in the grossest manner, even in the presence of their soldiers. All is French, and it is even forbidden to use the Flemish lan- guage, though the greater part of the men composing the corps do not understand a word of French.

It might be supposed that Ibrahim had desisted from this demand, as Adana is not mentioned among the Pachalicks granted to Mehemet Ali. The Viceroy demanded Adana on account of the extensive forests of timber fit for ship-building, and this seems to have given rise to some difference of opinion in the French and English Legations. It seems hardly compatible with the policy of England to assist in making Egypt a considerable naval power. In general, people here cannot conceive how the English Government can remain absolutely passive in events which, in so many respects, are of indisputable importance to the commer• cial interests of Great Britain, and to its t-rritorial po-- sessions. The formation of a great Egyptian and Ara bian power, which commands the Red Sea, and will hive by its navy great influence in the Mediterranean, is a circumstance which in firmer times would certainly have attracted the attention o; England. With the exception of a couple of ships, the English marine has, in the course of the last year, entirely disappeared from the Levant. There is a report that a reinforcement is expected ; but if it comes, it will be when the question is settled, and thus the part of England will be in the back ground. Equally difficult is it to account for there being no English Am bassador at Constantinople. Lord Ponsonby's arrival was announced long ago, but it has not yet taken place, and doubts begin to be entertained whether he will ever arrive at all. Meantime, M. Mandeville's part is confined to supporting the policy of France, a part which it is difficult to account for, according to former notions. Smyrna is indeed delivered from Emir Effendi, but its commerce is in a state of stagnation ; it is surrounded by Egyptian custom-houses, which hinder the arrival of goods from the interior, and even that of the necessaries of life ; the last post from Smyrna, instead of coming by land as usual, was brought to the Dardanelles by an Austrian man-of-war. There are vague reports of an insurrection at Aleppo against the Egyptians. VIENNA, MAY I.—Five per Cents., 934 ; Four per Cents., 83 7-16 ; Bank Stock, I,2lB.—Allgemeine Zeitung, May 6. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,-Through ►he medium of your impartial Journal, permit me to express my astonishment at the result of a trial (in which my name is concerned) in the King's Bench on Saturday. The cause was " The King v. Donlan and another." The part I have taken in that transaction is so misrepresented, and the evidence of the plaintiff, upon which the verdict was founded, so unsupported by the testimony of any other person or document, that I feel confident the Court will show its justice and impartiality by granting a new trial, and thus enabling me to remove any unfavour able impression which this ex parte statement may cause, and which I have no fear of being able to do, by a simple declaration of the facts within my knowledge, which declaration will prove that there has been no intention on toy part to defraud or conspire against the individual io question.

TIIE LATE ELECTION.—The following ana lysis of the votes recorded for the different candidates from the several parishes, will be, perhaps, considered interesting, as it proves where the strength of the different parties lay. It will be seen that Sir JO/1N HOBIIOUSE polled 3 to 1 over his opponents in St. George's parish. In St. Mar tin's and St. James's, and in most of the other parishes, the advantage was in favour of Colonel EVANS ; and in St. John's, the Colonel was 3to I over Sir Jolts. In St. George's, Mr. Escorr was not touch behind the Colonel. Col. Evans. Sir J. Hobhouse. Mr. Escott. St. Martin's St. James's St. George's St. John's St. Margaret's St. Clement's St. Paul's St. Ann's St. Mary's 1 Savoy UNIONS v. UNIONS.—A meeting has been held at the Exchange B.z.tar, 59, Puland•street, to de nounce the virulent language and doctrines adopted by the Unions. Thus we see that the goad sense of the people has not altogether deserted them. The Chairman of the meeting strongly protested against the excessive nature of the measures and language adopted by the Unionists; and all seemed to agree, and many expressed the sentiment, that it was not by violating the laws that they could hope for their amendment. The meeting was adjourned for a week, after the most perfect expression of dislpprobation against the Unionists.— The Town. MELANCHOLY SUlClDE.—Saturdav even• ing an inquest was held .at the Robin Hood, in Great Windmill -street, Haymarket, on the body of Mr. Wm. MOYLE, the landlord of the house. It appeared by the evidence, that the deceased had been for many years a respectable boot-maker in the neighbourhood, and eleven weeks ago took the Robin Hood public house, which for some time had been doing but little business, in the ex pectation that from his connection he could improve its trade. The business not increasing according to his ex pectation, he fell into a stare of despondency, saying, "he had ruined his fortify." Saturday morning he rose at his usual hour, about five o'clock, and at seven, when his wife came down stairs, she found him lying on the floor of hack house weltering in his blood, his throat cut, and a carving knife grasped in his hand. A surgeon was in stantly called in, but life was extinct. Verdict—" Tern. porary Insanity." THE MURDER AT CHELSEA.—The police are indefatigable in their endeavours to find some clue which may lead to the discovery of the murderers of Miss ELNltts, but hitherto without success. The motive that could have led to the commission of the murder appears to he regarded by the newspapers generally as very myste rious. All, we think, must concur with the Coroner, that it could not be malice that could impel any human being to take the life of an old lady so perfectly harmless. Many of the intelligent persons who attended the inquest came to the conclusion that the murder was committed in the expectation that Miss ErMes had a considerable sum of money in her possession. She was known to be respec tably connected ; she paid her rent punctually, occasion ally by a check on a Bank, which would also be known, and the real state of her circumstances was evidently known but to few ; several of her neighbours have de clared that they always considered her worth some pro- perty, much more than she really possessed. This was, no doubt, the general opinion ; and from the manner in which every room in her house wis ransacked, it was evident that the murderers were in search of something se creted : what could that be but money ? Being disap- pointed of finding the booty they expected, they might have left the few trifling articles of plate rather than run the risk of detection by an attempt to dispose of them. Six men are engaged in endeavouring to trace the mut derers—may they succeed must be the fervent wish tf justice and humanity. TRANSLATIONfromtheGULL LANGUAGE. BY DR. BOWRING.

Richard Bentley, New Burlington-street, (Suecessor to Henry Colburn.) CHURCH PATRONAGE, SCOTLAND. RESOLUTIONS INTENDED TO BE PROPOSED BY MR. SINCLAIR, ON TUESDAY, JUNE 4, 1833. " 1. That under the system of Lay patronage, existing i n the Church of Scotland (a Church in principle and constitu tion essentially popular), a very large proportion of its Minis ters is appointed either by the Crown or by private individuals, who, according to that system, need not be members of the Church, or possess any residence or local interest in the pa. rishes over which they exercise this right. " 9.. That although many patrons have very laudably con sulted the wishes of the people, and are distinguished by their intelligence and private worth, the nomination of parochial incumbents may fall into the hands of individuals, deficient in moral character, indifferent to the Christian religion, or hos tile to the Church establishment ; and that, in Humorous in stances, individuals have been appointed to the pastoral office, who possessed neither the confidence nor the affections of the congregations on which they have been imposed. " 3. That the Act of 171'2, by which the right of patronage was restored, is considered by the people of Scotland as a per_ nicious infringement upon their dearest rights ; and that their numerous petitions for its repeal, instead of arising from any want of attachment to the National Church, are dictated by their sincere affections for its doctrines, and their anxiety for its permanence and prosperity. " 4. That patronage, besides being deemed an intolerable grievance by many of the most eminent Ministers, and most zealous members of the Church of Scotland, has been the chief cause of the secession, which, in the last century, deprived that establishment of some of its brightest ornaments, and is the main obstacle to the return of many zealous advocates of Presbyterianism into its communion. " 5. That the people of Scotland are justly entitled, as well as fully qualified, to select their own Pastors, and that it would, therefore, be expedient to repeal the Act of 10 Ann e , and take such further measures as shall have the effect of placing the domination in the hands of the parishioners, being members of the Church, under such limitations as may be deemed conducive to the welfare and stability of the esta blishment. We have heard that Mr. MACAULAY has resigned his seat at the Board of Control for India, in con sequence of his not being satisfied with the Ministerial plan for the gradual extinction of slavery in the West Indies.— The Town.

When the mother returned she found his head and body lying a yard apart. A verdict of " Accidental death" was returned.-- IVolverhampton Chronicle. WEAVING TRADE IN PAISLEY, MAY 1. —The principal branches of the trade of this place have, in the course of the past month, undergone a considerable reduction in the price of weaving. Silk Trimmings.— These fabrics have suffered a depreciation in the }nice of weaving in the past month. A reduction of twenty-five per cent. has taken place. Some houses, however, are paying at the table price; others are from 21 to 3d. per cover higher. Though the price has fallen, no scarcity of employment is felt in this department. Flushed Trim mings.—These have been visited by a like reduction as the preceeding. In the same manner, some houses are paying at the table price, while others are a little higher. Common Imitation Shawls are a shade better tha❑ they were in the previous month. As they experienced no rise in the late improvement, so they felt no reduction. Thibets are steady in requisition. No diminution or addition of hands has taken place of late. Zebras are considerably brisker. A number of new hands have been agreed for them, and more are sought after. Blue Dresses have revived much, and several agreements have been made, with a wish to add more. Silk plain Mid ,no.--These have for some time been superseded by the Thibets for the middle of shawls, &c. A few of them have been taken on within these few days, and are likely to be increased. C triton Crapes remain steady. Com mon Allovers and Sprigs may be reckoned stationary. Harness Petticoat Dresses have improved a little; not many new hands have lately entered this department. Rove Shawls still maintain their former liveliness. Agreements may readily be got. Transparent Silk Gauze. —With one principal house, these fabrics are fiat. Others iu the line show some activity, and give their weavers constant employment....Seotsmiin. LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 13, 1833. Since the article which appeared in The Sun of Saturday, respecting the Ministerial plan for the abolition of slavery, was written, two of the heads of that plan have been published in greater detail, or rather, those heads have been defined. The following is the first head of the plan we gave on Saturday, elongated in the manner we have described : " That every slave, upon the passing of the intended Act, shall be at liberty to claim. before the protector of slaves, custos of the parish, or such other officer as shall be named by his Majesty for that purpose, to be registered as an apprenticed labourer, and shall thenceforth immedi ately enj , y all the rights and privileges of a freeman, shall be capable of giving evidence in all courts, criminal as well as civil, and as well against their employers as against any other person., of serving upon juries, and in the militia— of attending whatever place of worship or teacher of religion lie pleases, and shall have and enjoy all other rights and privileges whatsoever of a British subject." The second alteration defines what is to be understood as a clay's work. It says : " That in consideration of food and clothing, and such allowances as are now made by law to the slave, the labourer should work for his master three-fourths of his time, leaving it to be settled by contract whether for three-four he of the week or of each day. That by a day is here unders•ood only t. n hours, seven and a half of which are to be for the master as above, in consideration of food, clothing, and lodging, and that all the time above such ten hours is not to be affected by these regulations." The additions to the first head are natural co rallaries to the cessation of slavery, and the se cond contains a definition which it was desi rable to have ; but the chief point on which we felt difficulty still remains in considerable ob scurity. We allude to the money part of the affair. It is true that the Times has an official article this morning, which we have given in another column, in which the matter is attempted to be elucidated, but, after reading it with Brea attention, we cannot find a word as to how the money is to be raised, and little as to how it is to be repaid. The 15,000,0001. is calculated, we are told, as ten years' purchase of the net returns of the West India proprietors. We suppose that by " net returns" we are to understand the profits on cultivation after all expenses are paid, and not what remains to the landowner after the payment of those expenses and of the interest on the mortgages already on hi s property. Now it is well known that most West Indian estates are mortgaged to nearly their full value. We may presume that the Commissioners to be appointed by the Treasury would not accept of an estate so mortgaged as the security for any part of the loan, without an undertaking to pay off the old mortgages. Bu suppose the planter should refuse to pay off his old mortgages ; or suppose, what we believe will be found to be the case, that some of the West India proprietors should be glad to take the loan, resolve not to repay it, and leave the Government to seize the security. In that case the Government would be burdened with a property it might find a difficulty in getting rid of, for we believe there would be few buyers of West India property at 10 years' purchase In fact, the more we consider of the plan the more we are struck with the difficulties which lie in the way of its execution. At the same time we are bound to acknowledge that some of the difficulties have been got'over in a most inge nious manner. We particularly allude to the mode in which the master is enabled to be trusted with fixing himself the value of the slave. W e think also that the period of twelve years, as th e term of preparation for the final and entire eman cipation of the slaves, is judiciously chosen. It steers a middle course between those who, heed less of all consequences, want immediate and entire abolition, and those who want such a de lay as would be equivalent to telling the existing generation of slaves that their only chance for freedom lay in murdering their masters. This assurance of slavery being annihilated within a ' given period of moderate length, and of the slaves immediately acquiring all the rights of British subjects, with the exception of being compelled to work for a given number of hours in the day for a particular master, instead of for one of their own choosing, are the fundamental principles of the measure. We need hardly say that no departure from them will be tolerated. Of the details, so much will depend upon the manner in which they are worked out, that we must still forbear saying anything upon them. We must say, however, that we go a great way with Colonel EVANS in deprecating the pay ment out of the revenues of this country of the police establishment in the West Indies. Any temporary increase of military force that may be necessary, by way of extreme precaution, this country would, we have no doubt, cheerfully agree to ; but we cannot suppose that men who have been kept in a state of slavery by the pre sent police establishment—who have been treated like brutes—who have suffered themselves to be bought and sold—who have been compelled to give their whole labour to others, are likely to prove more discontented, when treated in some degree like rational beings, when compelled to give only apart of their labour to others, and having before them the near prospect of freedom. To any thing, therefore, which shall bear the appearance of throwing the expenses of the civil government of the West Indies permanently upon this country, we must most decidedly object. Since we last adverted to the subject of the house and window tax, pointing out their monstrous partiality, the metropolitan constitu encies have not been idle, but have, by different proceedings, testified to his Majesty's Ministers that they can no longer be maintained upon their present footing, if at all. The defeat of Sir JOHN HOBHOUSE in Westminster, on this sole ground, ought to be a sufficient warning to them of what they may expect ; at any rate, it ought to convince them that the meeting in South wark this day, and those which have passed, although unaccompanied by the least violence, really mean something. Let them not be de ceived either by the majority they obtained when last the question was before the House, or that which they may possibly obtain to-night, should Mr. TENNYSON'S resolution for the repeal of the house and window tax come on. As sincere friends, we warn them that the only condition on which they can preserve these taxes is to equalize them—to let the mansion pay as much in proportion as the shop,—to put the pee r and the tradesman on the s►me footing. We hear, from various sources, that the plan for the abolition of slavery in the West Indies, which was submitted to a meeting of Members of the House of Commons in Downing-street, on Saturday, did not give satisfaction to the majority ; and that the abolitionists were even more dissatisfied with it than the West India proprietors, on the ground of the restrictions of time, &c., imposed upon the slave. They say that by making the emancipation of the negro dependent on his labour, Ministers assume that he will exhibit a greater portion of intellect and industry under a West India sun, than the labourer of this country would show were he in slavery, and his .freedom dependent on a course of persevering toil. Mr. FOSVELL BUXTON'S party in the House of Commons being very numerous, it is said that it will be almost impossible for Ministers to carry their plan through without his support, or that of the opposite party, the juste milieu being, in this instance, a policy which will not stand by itself. The Dutch question seems to have been al most forgotten in the bustle of the East. M. I)EDEL, however, has announced that he is in hopes of soon receiving instructions from his Government, which will allow him to treat a little less reservedly with Lord PALNIERSTON and M. de TALLEYRAND. Official accounts have been received from Oporto, to the 2d inst. At that time every thing wore a cheering appearance on the side of the Constitutionalists, and authentic information had been received from England, stating that al though the British Government still refused to adopt the cause of Donna MARIA openly, her agents had latterly found much less difficulty in making their arrangements for its support, the " balance of neutrality" beginning to weigh on the Constitutional side. At the date of the last accounts from Oporto, Don PEDRO was only waiting for remittances, to conclude his nego tiation with SARTORIUS ; consequently, before the Miguelite fleet can reach Oporto, SARTORIUS will be in active and cordial co-operation with the REGENT. Captain Bo - YD, the Secretary and Staff Captain of SARTORIUS, arrived in town on Saturday night, at twelve o'clock, from off Oporto ; he left the squadron there, while blowing a gale of wind, and came in the Jane, a small cutter, and landed at Falmouth with despatches. The negotiations between SARToRWS and PEDRO were nearly brought to a conclusion, and harmony was restored between them. Thirty vessels were off the bar with supplies, and every thing on shore and in the fleet indicated a great change for the better. Two days before Captain B. left, 28 cavalry had come over to Don PEDRO with all their arms, accoutrements, and horses, and the desertions from MIGUEL'S army were taking place by picquets. Indeed, such was the state of MIGUEL'S army that each sentry of the regulars had to be himself guarded by a militia man, for fear of the former deserting, which was very common ; in fact, one man was obliged to shoot his comrade, in . order to be enabled to effect his escape.
