It is even spoken of in the Ministe rial circle: as an event very near at hand. Accord ing to this plan of change, M.

Count Moll, Minister of the Ikhrinc, ...ill pass to the Interior, and Marshal !Manumit, Doke of Ilagn•a, who is at this mo ment on a mission . at Lyons, will take the Ministry of the Marine. Others however say , that Baron de Barante, the arector,General o' Indirect Con trihistkni, will he t , .e Minister o the Marine. 'l'i) elections commenced on Saturday last, hnt that day was solely occupied itt choosine:the liu raanx, and that choice soon proved that the Li berals are in force ; for all the persons•for Whom they vote, as, L•afitte, Benj,uniu Delessert, Ma unel, Casimir Verlief-. Gilbert des Voisioc, &c. were appointed to the fioreHnx. Yesterday still :more decidedly showed that the majority was on the side of the Liherals. On the very first ecru. .tiny the name of M. Lafitre, the banker, was announced ail') a great majority. There now remain only seven representatives to be chosen, a n d the candid a t es who lia , e the greatest number of elianc s in their favour are—Casimir Perrier, banker ; Manuel, advocate ; Benjamin Constant; ; Benjamin Delessert ; Gilbert cies Voisins i and Pasquier, the Minister of Justice. In this nhc r there are only two Ministcrialists, namely, Pascinier 'and Ilellart. The Ministry, finding themselves - so weak, have got the elections adjouroed until to-morrow, un der the pretext that this day must be employed iu the scrutiny of seven of the sections which have fallen some hours behind. Ido not expect that the Ministers will succeed in making, during the interval, any considerable addition to the number of their friends. In the mean time they have in serted in the Journal des Debats, a sort of cry of alarm, in which they call on the Royalists of every description to come to their assista n ce. This article commences thus :—" Pure Royalists— Constitutional Royalists,—Royalists before or .af ter the Charter, assemble: it is your cause that is about to he tried !" M. Benjamin Constant has replied, in a pamph let, to the attacks made upon him by the Ministry in the Journals. It was wrong in the Ministry to attack him with personalities, instead of seeking to combat his principles; for certainly the Pas quiets, M 0143, Davousts, and other of the Mini sters and first functionaries of the State, would afford fair game were personAl attacks proper. The letter Which I subjoin from Nimes will prove to you how difficult it still is to enforce the due administration of justice in that country. Men most notoriously guilty are either acquitted by the juries, as Boissin. the assassin of General Legarde, or coodemned to slight-punishments, as was lately the assassin of General Hamel., This 'but too wen proves that the un'ortirnate depart ments of the South are still a prey to the spirit of party and vengeance. Nismes, SePT. is certain that robbery and murder is nit lot 444 committed in the nren streets, but still we' stand upon a volcano, and some event totally foreign to us may cause a new. ixOlosion, more violent than that we have already experienced.

We once holies' that ibis evil was perhaps pe culiar to our dePartuteut ; but we have acquired th e m e lancholy eertaiwy that the influence of the persons who hold the Gard in oppression is extended at pleasure beyond its ,limits. — The Government, in order to withdraw great cri minals from that fatal and deplorable influence, had transferred the trial of some offences to the Assize Court of the Department of the Drome,' and the following was the result of 'that proceed ing :—Two unfortunate women (Protestants), were assassinated in their'lmouses at Nimes.

THE SUN. vottn guts DICEKE rAcsum AUDEAT LONDON, • FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2i, 1317. The Paris Papers of Tuesday last, which were doe this morning, have not come to hand. A Private Letter from Park in a Morning Pa per of this day states, that the concordat had been rejected by the Council ; and mentions a report that the King of PUUSCIA was about to withdraw his Contingent from the Army of Oc cupation in France, on receiving the amount to be paid to him under ►he Treaty up to the year 1820. The last mentioned rumour is, we have no doubt, utterly destitute of foundation. The first statement may be partly true, some of the articles of the Concordat having, it is said, been objected to by the French Government. The SP.ECIAL COMMISSION for the Trial of the Rioters was- opened at Derby yesterday, but the Trials will not be proceeded in till towards the middle of next month. The British Press, we observe, is the only Lon. don Journal that has ventured to praise the recent Meeting at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, in honour of the memoty of Mr. Fox, and it charges " the Mini sterial Papers" with being angry that such a meeting took place. But in justice to ourselves we must observe, that none of the Papers which generally support Government except THE SUN, expressed any sentiment on the occasion. We hare no hesitation in saying, that it was any thing but a meeting in honour of Mr. Fox, whose name and character seemed to be incidentally noticed, as might always be expected among a number of per sons who profess to be animated with his principles. Several of the Speeches delivered at the Meeting were of a very inflammatory nature, 'rarticularly that of Mr. -LmUsTorz, who spoke of Government in such ,terms of abuse as was stiikingly characte ristic of Spa-fields Oratory. Among other out rageous charges, this Gentleman uttered the fol- lowing expressions in , reference to the pre sent system of Government : " It is as hate ful, ,as abhorrent to, our feelings, as any tyranny of Continental Despotism ever invented. Its ob ject is military despotism, its means are bribery, .suboroation, corruption, and perjury." It may be' fairly said, that there can be r? want of Liberty of Speech .where, such accusations are uttered, or Liberty of the 4 Press, where such .declarations are published. There were other , passages in this Gentleman's speech which we shall not stain our columns by iusert;ng; yet, contrary to the assertion of The British Pri7t, ".tlit Ministerial Papers," as it calls them, suffered these offensive charges to pass witlauut notice, though, ai peoleisiag an at• tacliment to Government, it inight be expected that they would haite aPpearca in its defence rather than enter into fr'u'itless and fri'vOlous contcntion3 with Th'e Morbid g ehronkle. Ltird CttEY, with a watt of &icy, Introduced- the INCOilit TAX, hbUsiUg its nature ani depre E cating its revival. The Noble Lord, ofcOurie; must have forgotten that Mr. Fox doubled it *lteli he 'clinic hitt) office, and spike contemptuously .bf the people when, lie said, that if it pressed too heavily on them, those who occupied the first *or . , iiiitst go to the second and so on to• the . third. This declaration was as unfeeling as illiberal and impolitiC, and if it had been uttered by any of the pre s ent Ministers', would have brought forth torrents of paky' ran cour. There were two matters., hOwever, at this meeting which must be satisfactory to the real friends of the country. Lord GitEir retract ed his opinions respecting Parliamentary Reform, though he beat about the Bush, and attempted some qualifying explanations, as if to avoid the charge of apostacy, and Dr. LUSHINGTON; amidst much abuse of Ministers, declared that he believed the doctrines which have been propagated of Universal Sufrage and dunual Parliaments, are the most cer tain means of preventing all practical Reform and dmeliorat ion . 1 " What Will The Morning Chronicle, ivith Messrs. WOOLLER and the old Reforming Major, say to this declaration ? Extras:t of a Letter from Flushing, slated the 18th Instant. " Amongst many other species of fraud upon our (the Bli fish) revenue, I was struck with •the novelty of one stra tagem, which f understand has been since successfully re peated. A vessel sailed from the port of London with a freight of plate glass, on which a large drawback is allowed, so high, I am told; as 75 per cent.
