LONDON, SATURDAY, AuGusr 7, 1824.

By private letters from Paris, we learn that M. de Che-
valier de Daman takes the Portfolio of Foreign Affairs, and
that some minor changes are announced as to the rest of
the French Ministry. As no change of measures can be
expected from such an arrangement, the change of men is
cf but secvntlary importance.
The following, we are assured, will now be the composi-
tion of the French Ministry :
N. de Nlllele—President and Finances.
M. de Damas—Minister for Foreign Affairs.
N. de Chabral—Minister of Marine.
Pl. de Dondeauville-31aiton du Rut (removed from the office of
Director of Posts). _ .

-
M. de Clermont Tonnerre—Minister of War (removed from the
Ikf vrine).

M. de Martignse—Direeteur de L'Enseteilrelnint
M. de Vauehier—Director of Posts (removed from the Customs`.
AL de Castrlbajac—Customs.
M. de Lauriston-31inister of State and Grand Veneta. (now
Minister of the King's Household).
M. Demonsticr is to go Ambassador to Swisserland.
_

_
It will be seen in another part of our paper, that the
French Chamber has been closed by the King, and that,
it was closed with all proper and becoming expressions of
loyalty. A shock of an earthquake has been felt; but
whether in consequence of this great event it is impossible
to say.

We bare received*N:w York Papers to the 7th of July.
The topic of primary interest still is, as might be expected,
tte election of the President for the next period. The
friends cf Mr. Cranford do not seem to be quite so Con-
fident as they were formerly, and they are bitter in pro-
portion against their opponents. The following letter, as
indicating a coalition of interests in favour of General
Jackson, has called forth the wrath of the opposite party.
'The anniversary of the independence has been kept
throughout the Union with the spirit and enthusiasm
with which such an event deserves to be celebrated.
Besides the above, there seems to be no intelligence
of any moment, except that the people of America are pro-
ceeding steadily in the improvement of their inland na-
vigation, by cutting canals in every direction, fot the pu:e
pose of connecting their great rivers and lakes. This is
the best and most profitable mode of employing capital in
a country like America, where the establishing a rapid and
*heap mode of communication between every part of the.
Union will more effectually benefit the country at large,
than all the tariffs to encourage the growth of manufacturm,
in an uncongenial soil that ever were framed, The spirit'
with which these operations are carrying on is truly wet,-
derfial, and the promptitude of their execution must insure
a speedy return for capital invested. In America, in great
works of this kind, the Government pursues a plan, which,
if nut required in this country, where capital is abundant,
could not fail to be beneficial in Ireland, where money is
soarer. After a certain moiety has been subscribed by in-
dividuals, the Stati becomes a partner in the speculation to
the amount of one-U.ird, or one-half; thus at once assist-

ing the private capitalist, benelidng the nation, and in-1
raring economy in the conduct of the operations, by encou-
raging private-wealth and individual industry, to carry into
effect measures of great public utility.

It is understood that a change is about to take place in
the Treasury and Indian departments. Mr. Lushingtoe,
it is said, goes to succeed Mr. Elphinstone (who is ap-
pointed to the government of the Madras Presidency), in
that of Bombay ; and Mr. Plants is to All the vacancy
caused by this arrangement, as Joint Secretary of the
Treasury.

The Ocean, Harrison, from New South Wales, has ar-
rived in the Downs. She left the Colony only a short
time subsequent to the lam arrival, and brigs no intelli-
gence of interest, beyond the assurance of the settlement,
being in a healthy and highly flourishing state. The num-
ber of inhabitants was daily increased by the arrival of
settlers from this country and Scotland, many of whom are
persons of groat respectability.

Yesterday, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held
at the Foreign Office, Dowing-street, agreeable to a sum-
mons issued on Wednesday, which was attended by the
Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Liverpool, the Earl of West-
morland, the Duke of Wellington, Mr. Canning, Lord
Bexley, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The ,
Council continued in deliberation upwards of two hours, ,
breaking up at about a quarter past four o'clock.
Yesterday, soon after the breaking up of the Cabinet
Council, the Earl of Liverpool left town foe his seat at
Coombe Wood, near Kingston, Surrey.
Despatches were yesterday received in town from Ja-
maica, which causal considerable bustle in the Public
Offices.
The Dutch Papers received yesterday state, that the
quarrel between the Hospodar of Moldavia and the Boyars
who hail returned from the Russian territories has been
settled, and those who had been imprisoned in consequence
of their complaints to the Turkish Divan have been set at
liberty.
Letters from Antwerp of the Sd of August state, that
the price of the Funds in Paris, on the preceding day, was
conveyed by pigeons, ten hours sooner than any courier
could convey it.
A letter from Frankfort says, that M. Mashard, who
was arrested at Hanover, and then conveyed to Cusel, on
account of the threatening letters addressed to the Elector
of Ileme, is on the point of regaining his liberty.
There bare been some fresh disturbances at Madrid,
between some French and Spanish soldiers.
We can state positively that the recent negotiations which
were carrying on in Paris for a Loan to Ferdinand are en-
tirely broken off.
Bonaparte's will has been registered in the Prerogative-
office, Doctors Commons, and probate thereof granted to
Count de Montholon, one of th 4. executors. His personal
effects in this country are sworn to be under the value of
600/. The will is all in Nxpolcon's handwriting.
The Marquis and Marchioness of Anglesea, with their
young family, arc enjoying the delightful sea breezes on
the Welch coast, at Plasnewyd, the Noble Marquis's splen-

The Earl of Egremont is nearly recovered from the
effects of his late accident. His Lordship is at Petworth.
Sir Robert Wilson is travelling in the Netherlands.
After stopping two days at Ghent with his two daughters,
be set out on Tuesday afternoon for Brussels.
The Hon. Mr. Noel, son of Lord Barham, is now on a
visit with Sir Edward O'Brien, Bart. at his seat, Drown°.
land, county Clare.
It has become our melancholy duty to record the death
of John Pugh, Esq. of Gray's Inn, Barrister at Law, one
of the Advocates of his Majesty's Supreme Court of Judi-
cature in this Presidency. Mr. Pugh had not been many
months in India ; but during the short period of his resi-
dencc amongst us he had acquired the respect and esteem
of all who knew Win. With the public he had established
a character which none but men of superior abilities ever
obtain ; and his death has caused a vacuum which will not
easily be supplied. No one ever practised in the Supreme
Court whoa opinions, as a lawyer, were more relied upon,
or whose talents, as an Advocate, were more justly ad-
mired and respected. As an orator be was peculiarly elo-
quent and impressive. By the death of this excellent,
man, the various religious and charitable institutions at
Madras have been deprived of one of their mast zealous
and useful supporters. His loss will be long mourned.
Madras Gazette.

On Tuesdav last, the inhabitants of Stourbridge and the
neighbourhood entertained the Right Honourable Lord
Foley at a public dinner, at the Talbot Hotel. His Lord-
ship, who has taken up his residence at Witley, was met
by upwards of one hundred gentlemen. John Ampfilen,
F.sq. of Clent House, presided, Colonel Smith and Edward
Oliver, Esq bring vice-presidents.
The Lord Mayor yesterday sent an order to the gentle-
man who took the contract for paving the City, and who
has crowded Fleet-street with stones, commanding that the
nuisance be immediately removed ; and adding, that if the
order be not immediately complied with, the City Officers
shall have them removed, and the City Solicitor shall be
forthwith directed to prosecute the contractor.
On Thursday the Surrey Yeomanry Cavalry received
their new Lieutenant-Colonel, Sir W. Jolliffe, Bart. at
Duppar Hill, near Croydon, where the regiment was in-
spected by him. Sir William and the rest of the officers
were afterwards entertained at dinner by George Hoare,
Esq. the senior Captain, at his residence, Mortlen Lodge.
Sii.x TRADE.--The repeal of the Silk Duties is bene-
ficially felt in this pan of the kingdom. The quantity of
prepared India silk purchased and in stock, destined to be
manufactured in Paisley, is, we learn, very great. A com-
petent judge assures us, that there was lately put into his
hands a quantity of that species of goods called " Canton
Crape," manufactured in Paisley : the pattern was so emu-
rite, the fibre so strong, and the texture so excellent, that,
bad he not previously been told, not cnly could he not have
distinguished it from the foreign article, but, anything that
was of it, lie would have accounted that manufactured in
Paisley in every respect the best article. We are happy to
hear this. The quantity of this kind of goods making for
