The eiectunstanees which have occurred 'singe its publication, the eleotion. of Lord CoCHRANE, Ike debate in the C omthons on Lord EBRINTOToN's Motion, and, Above all, DE BEllENOciesConfession,renderit unnecessatyfor us. to enter into a detailed examination of its contents. The. delusion whiChlt was designed to expose has been passing rapidly away, and there are few per sons now either so besotted or So, vicious as to stand up for the purity of any of the Gang of Con spirators. • The Pamphlet is very spiritedly and sensibly written_ A perusal of it, in addition to its prci - :ursor, will confirm those in the correct ness of their judgnient who have never - doubted -of the infamy and glint of this ahandonod Set ; it Will remove the doubts of the more - undetermined ; and it will puzzle the patriotic NVesttninster Elec t tors, who stilt attempt to brazen out the inno cency of their Representative. At' page 15 the Writer hints at anterior transactions., which seem to be partly developed by tilt' Secret Memoirs, &c. our first head in the present Notice. These Secret Memoirs, - however, we approach with considerable awe, and our. Readers wi ll ex cuse us from making extracts, when we tell them . that they directly accuse the whole Coc RAN Fa mily, therein named, of the grossest crimes.and misdemeanours. Yet even this qualiKcation is not all that they .possess to recommend them to the lovers of that species of composition 'which may be termed honest wholesale, unequivocal libel. There is scarcely a person men'ioned who (toes not come - in for a decent quantum of repro bation, and many on the charges . brought for ward of , a heinous and appalling nature, not only against the CoCIIRANE's, but against sundry other persOns, of much higher and fairer characters.--- We confess, at the same time, that there are some of these accusations so strongly supported by par-; ticidar. statements, that they carry with them considerable' weight, and certainly demand refu tation if false, and inquiry if true. The Author • was, it seems, a Navy and Prize Agent,in Tortola, tt Justice of the Peace., and in that station of life which gave 'him access tri the knowledge of such matters. as he records. . His inveteracy against the who're Family in question is, however, as con spicuous as aoy other of hiS motives for appealing to the Public—eve only wish, that what has ap= . - _ Neared to. countenance -his accusations against those at home, had not given so much the colour of probability and truth to his accusations against those abroad. As the subject, however, has been brought. under the cognizance of GoVernMenr, and. aS Admiral COCHRANE and his . son, Captain Sir THomils' JOHN COCHRANE, cannot, foi• some time, have an opportunity of defending their cha racterS,' thus vitally assailed, we shall, at least, suspend our. jUdgnient - upon their cases till .deter mined before a proper legal Tribunal, which, in our opinion, they must be in cousevence of this pUblieation. JOURNAL OF A TRIP TO PARIS. (No. XXII.) • Parrs, Friday, 29th. The news of the day at Paris is infinitely more various and uncertain than in London. The news paper system in-the latter place has created a kind of vortex, into which almost all that .happens., events of ,great and of little moan eft, the fate of Empires, or of Hackney. Coachmen's limbs, is sooner or later poured. The Parisian Papers are ..z.ot so much on the alert for every species of in= telligenee; hitherto they have barely cooimoui cated what was set down for them, neither daring to extenuate, nor .say aught in malice. There will, however, probably be more of the spirit of compe tition scion, which, favoured by a less restricted administration of that. poition of the jurisprudence which overlook s'the Press, %till mature the Journals into vehicles of better and more general information. I am led to these remarks by the striking number and inconsistency of the idle rumours which' pre vail here from day to day—one absUrd and incre dible story only yielding to another• of equal, or superior pretensions. That which lam about to state, rests, however, on something like more an 7 .thentic grounds 'than Most of those current in this metropolis. Indeed . 1 might say I'had it from 'undoubted authority, but that I doubt every thing I hear in Paris,. and: especially touching UQNAPAICTE and his Family. You will neverthe less attach what credit you think fit to my grand pensee, with the proviso just given, that from the channel through which I derived it, I should at any 'time before I became so sceptical have been firmly persuaded of its truth... we used to say in England, that his little Ma jesty of Rome was' not thr offspring of lIVONA 4ARTE and MARIA LOUISA.. Persons having access • to the best information here positively affirm, that he is. not the Son of MARIA LOUISA but what is more singular still is, that. the deception, is said to irate been so adroitly practised as to deceive the • • I‘latler lieseit,\AO ittflidval4 perSua tba . the Child..is her own. The true story is staid to be ,as_ follow; D • the cel4rated Accoucheur, Who vas in attendande upon. MARIA. LOUISA, :Wilt spoken to by BUONAPARTE in a way to prepare him for the birth in whatever way it might take place ; and he was required to give at least a few hours previous notie2 of the ex peeted period. The EmpteSs became alarmingly and it was soon obrions that it would be a difficult task to save the.lives of both Mother and Child. This was intimated to ItUONAPAIZTE by Mr. D , and he was directed to attend to the wellar,e of the Mother in preference to any othek • object. In due time the Empress was deliveved of a dead Daughter, and, in a few hours after, a fine Boy was put into her arms as the fruit of her snffering - s. This wes the Son of the Duchess of MONTEBELLO., but whether, to her Husband or to BUONAPARTE, puzzles the Parisian Philoso phers. It is further said, that this fact has been circumstantially brought under the con sideration of all the great Crowned Heads, and tl.at the Emperor FRANCIS alone Withholds his belief that the proof which supports it is suf ficient. 'Be that ,as it may, he has been closeted 'with Mr. D .. .1 - or more than an 'hour at a time ; and it is a well-known fact, that BUONA PARTE never sheaved a Father's fondness for his, hopeful Heir ; though, perhaps,, this might be ac counted for on other grounds, as well as the mo ross and gloomy nature of this inhuman Mon -1 shall not trouble you with any fur ther details of. this matter, in which, if. there is any truth, it will probably be brought on the tapis at the approaching Congress, which is to settle everything. ster.

M.

The latter, he argued, was the most wise ; and, in this pbint of view, he was in favour of the restraint of the censorship. M. Demortreux, M. Laharyi and M.

The Cupenhagen Gazeite of the 25th announces the perfect re-e3tablishment of the relations of friendship and amity - between France and Den mark, and .the appointments of the Marquis de Bonnay aS French Minister to the court of Den mark, •and or General Watertorff as the Danish Minister to France. In•prciof of his-satisfaction at the restoration of peace , the King of Denm ar k has: revoked the Ordonnance of 24th Feb, against French subjects and their property ; and has de clared the Consuls and other Commercial agents of the French Government, who are,approved pf by Louis XVIII. restored to their futtutioas and usual privileges. The Russian troops stationed in Holstein do not appear likely soon to leave that station. They have entered into contracts for supplies for 'an unlimited period. • • CALAIS, Auo. 7.—The English coming from London succeed each other here without mLsion.

The Debate oti the, Liberty of the Preis being resumed, M. Delhorme contended, that the project of the Law was contrary to. the Constitutional Char ter, and subversive of political and civil rights.--;- He argued at great length to shew, that the pub= lic rights guaranteed by the Constitution were indivisible and irrevocable—that the liberty of the Press was indispensible to a limited Monarchy and representative Government—that the Consti tution could neither be added to nor impaired, without endangering its existence—that the liberty of the Press was the guarantee 'of the other public rights—and that, without this liberty of the Press, they had neither present safety nor future security. Upon all these grounds he was for rejecting the Project of the Law; M. Laborde spoke extemporaneously, and with great fire and action, in favour of the law, which he contended was not contrary to the Constitu tion, either in spirit or in words. • e then ex - a- I mined the question, with regard to the inconve- GOTTENBURGH MAIL. .eiIOTTENBURGH, AUG. 2.—Mr. Forster has re turned to Sweden. • 'lt is reported that an action I►as taken place at Kragarse between the gun boats ; 1G are said • to be taken, and three sitnk.

GOTTENBURGH, JULY 30.—A serious riot took place here on Tuesday evening; last ; fifty of the Spanish troops who .dese - rted from the French service, 'awl have been a long while here, waiting an opportunity to 'be sent home, at tacked ten of the Grottenburgh Artillerymen with stones and sticks; and almost immediate ly drew their knives (thou git they had long . since, in consequence of misconduct, been for bidden to carry any on pain of death), which they had sharpened into the form of stilettos. One of the artillerymen was stabbed in the neck, 'and died instantly ; and the lives of two :others are despaired of.
