THE SUN. tn. Ell QUI S DI C FAL3Un AUDEAT ? LONDON, wurzsr).-41', sEpTEmPEII 2 5, 1817. We received this morning the Paris Papers of Monday last. They give the conclusion of the ial before the Court of Assizes at Aveyroo, re lative to the assassination of M. Ey ALDEs. . The Jury unanimously declared Bostick, jousion, Bnx, and Colard guilty as principals, and the Widow Ban - cal as an accomplice, in the murder of M.FUALDES, with tit meditation. Missonnier and Anne Benoit, guilty of the same crime, but cxithout prmedita tion. Bonsquier, guilty as an accomplice, in throwing the body into the river. The daughter Bancal, not guilty of the assassination, either as principal or accomplice. Jausion and Bastide were also declared guilty of the robbery of the propetty taken from the residence of M. FUALniS on the mottling of tl►e 20th March, but without force.. The woman Jausion was declared an ac con►plice, but that she acted without knowing 'lhe motive. The woman Galtier was declared not guilty.—The President declared acquitted the daughter Batted, and the women Jausion and G.iltier, and they were ordered to be discharged. The widow Bancal, Bastide, Jausion, Bax, and Colard, were sentenced to death. Missonnier and Anne Benoit to compulsory labour for life, and I3ousquier to ono year's imprisonment.—lt is added, that Madame Manson had been arrested at the instance of the Procurettr-General of the Coen• Royale.—The following are extracts : " Pants, SEPT. 22.—Yesterday after mass the King received the Dignitaries, the Ministers, the Marshals, the Corps Diplomatique, and other per sons of distinction. The Duke de Feltre also paid his respects to the King. " They write front Nantes, that a Woman has died in the village of Petit Mars aged 100 years and a few months. " An individual has died at Leige, who for .a long time lived by begging. ..After his death there was found in his apartment property to the amount of upwards of 8,000 francs. "A notice, dated 12 o'clock last night, from the President of the Electoral College of the Seine, states, that the Scrutiny in seven of the Sectional Assemblies not having been then finished, it would be impossible for the result of the General Scrutiny to be published in the Central Bureau at the hour appointed by law for the opening of the assemblies. This day, therefore, is to be employed in these operations, and the Sectional Assemblies will be opened to-morrow morning. " The following are the persons who yesterday obtained the greatest number of suffrages at the 19th section, as Deputies, M.M. La6tte, 217 — Camel de la Boutiardiere i 203—Bellart, 199 Roy, 191—Pasquier, 163—Gonpy, 155—Breton, 142—Benjamin Delessert, 146—Benjamin Con stant, 107—The number of voters was 425. " Yesterday the General and Staff Officers, and the Chefs de Corps of all Arms at Paris, present ed their congratulations to Marshal Gott ion St. Cyr, the Minister of War. "It is remarkable that the votes at the Seetimns of Paris fur Deputies are so divided,. that in none of them has any nomination been made by an ab solute majority, but only by a relative majority. The number of voters of all the Sections as hembled was about 6,500. " The statement of Births and Deaths in the 12 Municipalities of Paris, for the year 1816, gives the following results : number of deaths inl 816, 19,801; ditto, 1815, 21,549 ; included in the number in 1816, are 7,312 deaths in hospitals ; number of deaths by the small-pox in 1816, 150 ; ditto, 1815, 190; number of suicides in 1816, 188, viz. 122 men and GG women ; ,iitto, 1815, 175 ; Births in 181(i, 22,366, viz. 11,584 mules, and 10,782 females ; Excess over deaths, 2,565 ; in 1816, 278 persons were drowned, viz. 222 males, 56 females. • " A reduction is said to have taken place at the Minist i ry of War, to the number of from 3 to 400 pers4rts hitherto employed there. " They write from Lausanne, that—the Apos tolic Nsincio •in Switzerland, M. Carlo-Zen, re ceived, the Gth instant, intelligence of his.nomi natiOn to the nunciature at the Court otYrance, with orders to proceed immediately to Home, to, receive his instructions. " PETERStUtICM, Aug. 27.—The harvest of wheat, rye, and barley, is finished in Poland, and surpasses every hope. " The Grand Duke .Michael commenced the 23d his tour in the interior of the Empire. After his retorn„ lie will set out ori another in Italy, Germany, France, and England. " VIENNA, SErer. 11.—Tbeir Impetial Majesties are expected bete early in November. " It is understood, that from and after the Ist 01 January 1818, all the taxes are to be paid in cash, and the Court , will also pay in cash the sa laries of the public functionaries. " LAUSANNM, SCrT. 1 6.—lc appears certain that new negociations are about to be opened be tween Switzerland and France, respecting com mercial relations which are to be established on a permanent footing, and adapted to the new system of the French costoms. " One hundred and six of our fellow country men are now in the Tagus off Lisbon, dreadfully deltitntc. These unfortunate individuals em barked in Holland for the United States of Ame rica, having paid a part of their passage. They did not discover, till it ‘vls too late, that the small brig in which they were crowded was short of provisions anti water. The Captain put into Plymouth under the pretext of obtaining pro vislons, and demanded a further advance of money from the passengers ; be spent this sum ) again put to sea, and they arrived at Lisbon without any means ,of continuing their voyage. In this situation, these unfortunate emigrants, punished too late for their want of foresight, solicited the charity of some Swiss residents at Lisbon. A collection was made, which produced 100 Louis, but this was not found sufficient to provide for conveying them to their destination, and their prospects are most lamentable." The critical state of the reigning Kf.NG Of SSVE DEN is likely to produce extraordinary events. It , is impossible that the legitimate Powers of Europe can see with satisfaction a Military Adventurer of low origin, and who was deeply concerned in that dreadful Revolution which, shook every State to the centre, mount upon a Throne. Besi:les, it is well known that many of the NobleS, and a large Majority of the people of Sweden, feel strongly the humiliation of their country, and long for the return of their lawful Monarch, whose spirit and heroism were quite in unison with the cha racter of his glorious Ancestors. The cause of his removal from the Throne was honourable in the highest degree to himself, and a reproach to all other Monarchs but that of Great Britain. The very Army of Sweden, if they have any sense of the honour of their country, and the dignity of their profession, cannot but participate in the na tional feelings. Norway is kept in reluctant obedience, and on the death of the reigning King, the Person who expects to succeed to the Throne will have plenty of difficulties to wade through before he can smooth the passage, and. secure the possession. We shall see what part the Emperor of Russia will perform, and whether he really deserves the epithet of magnanimous, which has hitherto been applied to him, and consequently whether Le will support. the cause of Justice, prove the friend of Misfortunes, and support the honour of Thrones. THE FUNDS.—The rise which took place yes terday the Stocks is fully rnaintained this morn ing. Consols opened for Money at 8114 —for the Account 8l Ir--and for November Account 82/ ; they continued at those prices. Such is the con fidenCe of the monied interest as to a further con• siderable advance, that bets have been made that Consols will be dOne at 84 on or before settling day, October 14.—We understand the Bank in tend calling in the whole of the 11. and 21. Notes at the conclusion of the present year, so d i git at the commencement of 1818, the smallest Bank Note in circulation will be for 51. The interest upon French property in our Funds, added to the French dividends now receiving, will bring one million and a half of money into the market. The English dividends commence paying the 7th of next month, amounting to seven millions, the whole of which is ready to be paid in speck. The Morning Chronicle this day has thought proper to give a translation of a French hand-bill, proposing a subscription to support the Liberty of the Press. We knoW very well that the advocates for this liberty mean licence; and surely The Morn ing Chronicle need not resort to foreign importation for such liberty, when it is so skilful in the home manufacture. One •of the persons, of reforming notoriety, lately tried, is said to be engaged to support the political principles of one of the chief Opposition PapNs. If this report be well founded, we may judge of the nature of the principles which such a Politician is employed .to support;and how far they are likely to be consistent with those prin ciples ttpon . .Which that Constitution is founded, which has rendered us the envy of all other States. We conceive that the Paper alluded to should c ome forward and contradict this .report, if it is• not well founded. The'character of the Journal iii .qUestion has already suffered by .its reported connections.' Extract of a Letter just received from fin Eng, lisle Merchant now resident in Buenos-Ayres We remain very quiet here, and I think we shall continue so. We shall soon have a larger field open -to us, owing to the occupation of Chili by the Patriot Armies. This has already given new life to on: commerce, and it seems probable that we shall soon have the valuable market of Peru laid open to this Settlement. The British Government ought to do all in their power to foster and protect this trade, which may eventu ally be a second North America to us. The Por tuguese remain in Monte Video, but they seem to discover a great backwardness. in their expedi tion., wFatever be its object." The Russian Grand Duke Mount is expected to pass the ensuing winter in England. His im perial Highness will reside at Stratford House, Stratford Place, which remains in the state it was left by his brother NICHOLAS. Lord COCHRANE has returned from his Conti nental excursion, and is again to be seen in his usual costume an the pare. SHIP NEWS. The following Is an Extract of a Letter reedit 1 ed from Capt. Jotfigs, of the sloop William, by hi Owners in London, dated Cadiz, Sept:6, 1817 " I am happy to inform you of my safe arrivai here in 3 days from Lisbon, but should have had I. shorter Passage, had it not been for the Spadislt brig of war the Volunteer, of Cadiz, which did me a great deal of damage. As soon as she hailed me, she immediately opened a fire on me (being not more than front 20 to 30 yards distant) with great guns and small arms; which tore the mainsail much, giving me no time to do any thing. At last I got out the boat, and Went in Fier ; and while going on board the brig, slit kept up a con• tinual fire of musketry for more than ten minutes, This hurt my feelings very rhtich; expecting, when I came on board, to find my Son; mate, A nd the two English passengers, who were on bdard, shot, as I had no less than one 12-pounder and eleven musket-shot through my mainsail ; two through the foresail ; one in the mainmast, and others through the bulwarks and bows. The jib. , sheets, topmast shrouds, gaff topsail tie, and main halyards, besides the boat's gripes, were shot away, but happily no one bum" The Crown Prince Frederick, SCHIEL, is arrived in the River from Norway : she was brought-to on Sunday night, off the Dogger Bank, by a three-masted schooner, with another cruiser (a brig) , in company. The two vessels above alluded to are supposed to be the two Tunisian cruisers that were some time since on the toast of Norway. FALmouTur, SEPT. 2g.—Arrived the Enter% prize, HosKEN, from London.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. ANTWERP, SEPT. 17.—Since I wrote you From 13Ing , s, t' have heard of nothing but most awful tho.tder-storms in all the adjacent country. The _Mussels coach had a 'narrow escape on the night of the 11th, as a thuoderbolt actually fell between the feet of the horses, and made a large gap in the pavement. . The passengers were almost suffo cated by the sulphur - eons stench it emitted. The nuintereepted lightning-which accompanied the conetts.ion was so brilliant, that, at eight o'clock niOtt, you could distinctly ascertain the time on the dial of the tower' of Notre fame. The at mospherc at this moment appears extremely dis turbed. Considerable discontent is at this moment di rected against forestallers and speculators in corn. There is scarcely a Journal published in Belgium but fulminates its anathemas against these lIICII. One paper designates them as the Anthropo. phagi of the earth ; another recommends that the Clergy should withhold absolution from all those who are engaged in such contracts. The result of these enlightened observations has been evideneel in manifest symptons of popular tumult. A placard has, within the last two d a y s , been affixed on the Place Vert of this town, threatening the Burgomaster With the fate of Delt jeans, unless he should take immediate measures against the Accaporeurs. This ill-fated Deltjeans was, in the year 1790, under the charge of fore stalling, actually tied by the feet to a cart, and, in defiance of the orders of the Magistracy, and the entreaties of the Priests, dragged through the streets of Antwerp, until death released him front the cruelty of an infuriated multitude. DacsneN, StPT. 9.—There is a great influx of strangers here at present, who are chiefly Rus sians, Prussians, or Poles, returning from Carls bad, or Toplitz. The English are not numerous ; amongst them are the earl of ANCLIAM, Lord ".VlLLlattl RUSSELL, and Sir HUGH DALRYMPLE. Of those who are here, "very few were absent from the Theatre, the other night, when Mac -bah, well translated by SCHLEGEL, was per formed. The character of Lady Macbeth was played by Madame SCROEDER, the SIDDoNS of H'bo is certainly a fine actress, and has an excellent conception of most characters ; but in this she was overwhelmed 5 it "was above her powers. Macbeth himself was greatly degraded in the representation. The Witches were entirely misunderstood. One great object of curiosity here is the fortress of Kcenigstein (the .King's Rock), within which there is a remarkable well. This, however, it is not probable that any stranger will have an opportunity of seeing ; for per mission was refused to the Duke of DEVONSHIRE, though his Grace applied for it by means of Mr. lkloaraa, our Minister. Of the celebrated and extensive Gallery of Dresden I shall not attempt to give you a description, but I must express 'my surprise, that Germany so far exceeds Italy in the possession of the best paintings. Berlin, Potsdam and Dresden enable me to say this, without going farther, though that I hope to do. In statues Italy has indisputably the pre-emi nence. There are some good Ahtiques here, but the collection is small ; and, although tic view of it for purposes of study, or a musement, is most liberally permitted, the Students have hi therto supplied hut indifferent specimens of their proficiency. In fact, that private patronage, which men of genius find in England. is deficient here; It is, therefore, not wonderful, that the Exhibition at Somerset House should much ex ceed any that the German sculptors can form.— I have just returned from a view of the monument of General Alortaatr. It stands on the field of battle something more than a toile from this place, and though extremely simple, consisting of one granite stone, is very impressive, being surmounted with a bronze helmet, wreath and sword. The inscription is merely— " MOREAU der Held }lel /tier an der stile ALExANnEns." The hero, MoREAU, fell here by the side of ALEXANDLR. TO CORRESPONDENTS. CicEsTrux Cry's To-morrow.

The circtunstances attending the murder of this unfortunate young woman have naturally raised horror in the Community at large, and the people of WARWICKSHIRE are laudably anxious to vindicate the character of their County. It has been proposed that as • the verdict of the Jury has not satisfied the Public, and as other cir cumstances of a suspicious nature have transpired, that a Subscription should be instituted for the purpose of forwarding the ends of justice by a new trial. The character of the nation is con cerned in bringing the Offender to justice, and we trust that astonishment, indignation, and horror, will not be suffered to subside, without due in quiry, and a rigid investigation of whatever may tend to the discovery of truth and the punishment of guilt ror this purpose a Correspondent has authorized tis to offer five guineas, on his part, to promote the views of justice, and support the honour of the Country. The Liverpool fraud is likely to turn out a se rious affair to the parties concerned. The broker who gave bond for the goods was innocent of the fraud which was intended ; and is called upon by Government to pay the penalty of the bond, which is 50001. So Sohn as the nick was disco. , vexed, the broker set off for Londo►r, to trace out the goods which had been sent (here by the frau dulcet and had the mortification, on stepping into the coach, to find already seated his treacherous friend, who was also on the look-out for the money or the goods. Two searchers, however, from Liverpool had the start of all the r e st, and had succeeded yesterday in getting into their possession about 40001. worth of the goods; and before this time they will have laid their hands on goods of nearly the same value, as they were correctly informed yesterday where ,they were to be found. The-respectable merchants at Liverpool consider themselves disgraced by a transaction so infamous having been discovered amongst their body.—(Morning Paper.) The first Division of the 103 d regiment, recently landed from Canada, under the command of Ma jor Ewor, have marched into Chelmsford Bar racks, where the remainder of the corps are shortly expected to join it. \ is__ 14 i Aft 1. 4 " , '
