FRENCH PAPERS.

[ From the 1:1,4k, dated Sundar.l
The Journal of Valencia gives the formula of the oath taken by
the Royalist Volunteers of Murcia. We sit Itoin the harangue ad-
dresses' to these troops by their Commandant, and the form of the
oath taken :
" Royalists !—You have taken before the symbol of loyalty the
oerli of fidelity which the Royal hatitianets prescribe. I sin well
satisfied, but I exact still more front you. NVe ought now to co:.
serrate our vows to the Almighty, and ter make known to the
whole world how far extends that homage which we voluntarily,
a•td with pleasure. feeder to the beet of Z•lb‘ CIL I vn. The cloy dist
Volunteers of Murcia dedicate tbenntelvta to God and to their
King. Identified wi:h these two principles, which ought to govern
0., we shall he invincible; the enemies t•f the Altar svid of the
Throne will tremble, and we shall fulfil the duties imposed on us by
nature. 'Therefore, Royalists,
" Do you swear to God, sod promise to the King, not to permit
nor admit on your soil, any other Religion than the Catholic,
Apostolic, and It )man, which you profess, and to shed fur it even
the last drop of your blind ?"—Ves, we swear it.

Several of our merchants have received letters from Constanti.
noplet, of the that and 23,10 f October, stating that great constrrna
tion exists in the Divan. It is certain Mat by the destruction and
dispersioa of the Turkish and Egyptian fleets, the Oreeles are
absolute masters of the lEirdanellcs, and can blockade it and starve
the Capital. This will be the most expedient means to humble
the mid,: of the Ot:o:nan Porte, and tone them to recognise their
itideprnoence.
Lord Strangfora who landed at Trieste on the 31, is expected in
this capitol. Ilk Lordship. was di layed by an excursion to the
roast of Asia .Minor, to visit the ruins of Tmy. He left Con.
stantintiple on the 13. h ult. and saw in the Dardanelles the wrecks
of the o.toman fleet.

The declaration of war by the Regeecy of Algiers does much
injury to the commerce of this city, front the prudential measures
ordered by the lioard of fleaßli. Vessels coming front the Antilles
instrad of entering Cadiz, were oblige:l to go and perform qua-
rantine at Port 3,1a!10n, in Minorca. Now that the quarantine is
finished. we IT:ive three It igates, a brig, and schooner, which cannot
go out of it without fear of being cop:Tired by the Barbary corsairs.
Some time ago the merchants applied to Government for a sof&
eient force to protect them when they sailed, and to convoy them
hither, but it seems that more important matters have not allowed
it to attend to this; in consequence the owners, underwriter, a:.11
other persons interested in the cargoes of these ships. are going to
meet, in order to take measures to obtain a convoy of somr kit.Tl or
other, which may relieve these vessels from the situation in which
they arc placid.

A letter from a most imp:eta:tie person in Napes, of the 6th,
has these words —" We received iron Constantinople the news of
the deposition of the Grand Seib:mit. which took place Withal= any
tliiputbanee." The mail brings a letter of the 9:11 from the saute
person, which dues not contradict the innes.

His Majesty has, on the petition of Henry Fountlacy,
been pleased to command the Ju4ea to hear CoutisLl on the
point upon which the motion was wade in arrest of judg-
ment. The Judge,' will meet for that purpose to-day at
twelve o'cio;;L:, at the large room, S.ssiuns house, Wi.st-
tninster.

The ArchUshop of Du' in, as.,isted by Dr. Radcliffe,
held an adjourned Court on Wedorsday, at his Gtace's
'Waco, in Szephen's-„re. n, Dub!iti, to hear an al peal
brcwilt up by the ltcv. Thomas Hatulcoek, latu Curate
of 11'114c:church, in the county of Wexford, whose ;keine
was revoked by the Bishop of Ferns, on the grounds of
immoral conduct. It was stated in evidence, that tit::
Rev. Gentleman had endeavoured to Thrsuatle the daughter
of a gentleman in ilia county of Wexfurd to elope with
him. It was urged against Mr. liatolcoeli, that in the
absence of the young lady's parents, and he was left
in charge of their futoily, he prevailed upon the young lady
to enter into a eland. stnie correspondent- widt him ; and
had put into her hands a copy of Dun Juan, with some
of the "wannest' passages marked. The case was ad-
jounied.
THI 'MC:C:4T EI.,MEMENT.—Friday Mr. Pint was
brought before the Magistrates of the baad p.tiett of ee,
from win:no:be Will conducted before the Comiuissiotiers
of Bat 7 rupta, and upon his surrender being r‘ceived, he
was graimd the usual protection. It is stated that there
arc ample fonds to the demands of .dr.

PROP/MILD IMPROVEMENT IN FLRET-STREET.—In con-
argot:tire of several inhabitants of St. Bride's Parish having
expressed a wish to use the opportunity which the late tire
in Fleet-street may afford, for improving the norti:ent
avenue to St. Bride's Church, and t.p...:dm; a I)::tter view
of the spire frant Fleet-street, we under..anu that a meeting
will be bead to take the sul2,ject into c•:asidcration, at the
Vestry-room to-morrow. This improvemrtit, we trust,
will be carried into execution. The heautifol structure of
St. Bride's has been hitherto hidden from public view•. It
will reflect honour ett the parishioners it t'::ey embrace the
opportunity resultitm front the recent calamity in
stre...t, to give to yull!ic ndiniration what has !teen ton long
width:hi from it. If this example be follow,:il oa all.ihc•
occasions when &Al neighbourhoods and existing oltstiuoi
tions arc either accidentally or purposely removed, we may,
at no distant period, hope to see many other public edifices,
worthy of the m-tropolis in which they areiituated, brought
forward, as it were, to claim the praises that justly belong
to them.

We unidentand that a measure is in contemp:siticn,
amongst some of the In:miler' of the Corporation, to ex-
tend the elective franchise. The principle prorated, should
their views be carried, is, for each freeman to uoudnatt a
parson, who, if eligible, will be sworn as a Burgess, with-
out further expense than the usis;Li fees to the lawn Oink
&c.—ilytetattlh Paper.
