PEACE IN INDI%.

is with pleasure we announce the termination of
• the war with Nepaul, by the exchange of the ratifica-
tions of the Treaty of Peace on the 14th of March. Our
army did not tale the field till the end of February—
Same sharp actions took place. It is said that we were
in one of them taken by surprise, as accounts from Paris
stated, in the first instance—but that we soon recovered,
and repulsed the enemy ; who, in the last action on the
xd March, lost in killed and wounded about 600 men.—
. Our loss was comparatively small.

Cranky died with conint:e, firmness, resignation, and piety.
He wished to walk to the place of ewention barefooted. On
ascending the scaffold he turned round to the people and said
—" I am guilty, bat a misled criminal and the victim of thin
wretch (pointing to the Surgeon). Pray to (sod tier my soot
and help my unfortunate children.
Then turning to the soldiers, he added —" Comratles.l ard..nt •
ly wish that my example may be useful to you, and present yon

for nothing but your loin.'
Having embraced his son and his Confessor, and asked the
benediction of the latter, he underwent his sentence.
Bonnery dated death with that audacity a hick can only be

derived horn guilt.
As to Ituaitx, the surgeon, his death eseited only horror. The
fear of death had ‘o deprived hint of strength, that he was
0:/ligell to 1w removed in a cart ; and he did not cease to voci-
ferate all the way front tile prison to the place of execution.
We find, that a very serious disturbance took place
lately in the neighbourhood of Toulouse, occasioned by
the high price of bread. A party of the National Guards
were sent to quell the tumult ; but, instead of performing
that service, they joined the rioters. The riot was after-
wards suppressed; and twelve of the National Guard
were arrested and thrown into prison. It appears, that
an increase in the price of corn had taken place through-
out France, arising from apprehensions that the approach-
ing harvest may be defective both in quality and quantity.
It is to be hoped, that those fears are exaggerated ; for it
would be difficult to conceive a greater calamity than high
prices fltr the necest.trics of life, at a moment when the
stagnation of trade has reduced, on the part of the labour-
ing classes, the means of purchase.
A scene took place on the .h2d inst. at Ghent, which

that the mob were a little out of order in tearing the

him, whether he would equally have commended the peo-

nakedness, and save them from starvation?
The su-diseint Patriots of 1816 were executed on the
27th ult. Pleignier, Tolleron, and Carbonnean were
taken to the Place de Greve. Pleignier resisted much
when they took off his coat, but the two others were
calm and resigned. Their right hands were first cut off,
and they were then guillotined. Their remains were
buried in the church-yard of Vaugirard.
General Mouton I)uvernet, condemned to death by
the Council of War at Lyons, was shot on Saturday, for
serving Buonuparte after professing loyalty for the present
King of France. This General surrendered himself vo-
luntarily. He was provided ut the time with passports,
and all the means of escape ; but he was unwilling to
leas•: his country, and threw himself on the mercy of
Louis XVIII. ; the execution of the unhappy man shews
with what success.—Several conspirators have also suffer-
ed death at Carcassonne, in the Province of Jude.

The French Papers, speaking of the approaching har-
vest, say, the crops have not suffered materially us ,41„,
from the unfavourahle state of the weather ; they ‘sint
only a few days of sun-shine; hut the hope is expressed,
that their good King will reconcile the French to the
elements, who, it is whia, appear to he angry with them
for their past •(revolutionary) offences !—This disserta-
tion upon the crops, the elements, and the good King, is
pious, .philosophical, and local. What a present the
High Allies bare made to the French nation, in giving
them them Sovereign who Las SO much influence on the

laid befitre the King, his Majesty, with his own hand,
added the following minute to it :—" The guilty who
gives himself to law, confides in the mercy, nut in the
justice, of the Prince. There is no soom for his trial.—
Let him retire into Sicily."-8o grateful was this act of
clemency to the Public, that on his Majesty's appearing
shortly after at the Theatre des Florentini, he was hailed
by unusual acclamations of joy.
Some Parisian Journals speak with no inconsiderable
share of self-fluttery of the number of English youth of
both sexes who have been recently placed in French
Schools. Their vanity in this respect we deem quite
pardonable. The shame is on us and on our children.
Are the means for the education of the children of the,.
decent or opulent ranks of society wanting is their own
country, in which every practicable mode is in the pro-
gress of adoption for instructing the lowest classes, and
from whence they are diffiising themselves over other
parts of the European community ? Are the mastery
of the pronunciation of the French: tongue, and the ac-
quisition of French manners, such important brandies of
the education of a boy or girl of Britain ? Is cheapness
of tuition h sufficient set-off against the dangers of fo-
reign habits and feelings, and of principles and sentiments
unpatriotic and tin-British ?
Some misunderstanding appears to have taken place
between our countrymen and the citizens of the United
States on the Lukes. The depositions of five commun.
ders of American trading schooners are given ; stating,
that they had been fired at, detained, mid searched by
British cruisers; and that the pretext was, looking
out for deserters from the Royal Navy. Trade is very
dull, and distress great, in all parts of the United States.

'Phis intelligence excited a considerable sensation in
the City, in which it was considered us bearing an hostile
aspect. The Courier, however, deprecates any apprehen-
sion of this kind ; observing, that these supplies must be
necessarily wanted in the ordinary course of things, and
that this is the properseason for sending them out.

Letters from Madrid of the Ist ult. state, that King
Ferdinand VII. had gone to drink the mineral waters of
Sacedon, near Cuenva. It is reported that his Majesty
contracted some disorder whilst at Valency, which it is
expected these waters will remove ; and that this was
thought adviscable previous to the arrival of his spouse.
Extract of u letter from Barcelona, dated July 1.4 :-
" A Deputation has gone from this city, to pray his Ma-
jesty to prevent the introduction of English merchandize,
which destroys Spanish industry, and produces nothing to
the revenue, because the Custom-house Officers are easily
corrupted by the English traders. With the sante view
of favouring Spanish industry, an order has been issued
to prevent the entrance of foreign artisans in matters of
luxury and fashion." _ _ _

I.etters from Cttracon, of the 20th of M,iv, mention,
that th. Spanish squadron having collected in Puerto
Cavallo, &c. consisting of two brigs and five schooners,
attacked Bolivar 's naval threes, near the island of Mar-
garita ; when, Mier a severe conflict, the Independents,
commanded by Brion, captured the whole of the Spanish
flotilla, and took them into the principal port of the said
island. The troops Bolivar had landed in Margarita at-
tackal the 800 Spaniards who had intrenched themselves
in Pumpatar, took their position by assault, anti put them
all to the sword.
Paraguay has, according to report, formed a separate
Government of itself, independent, and against those of
