We have received French Papers to Tuesday last,

PARIS, APRIL 1.
On Tuesday, after mass, the King, seated on his
throne, surrounded with the Princes and Princesses
of his family, received in public audience the Persian
Ambassador. Three of the Royal carriages, drawn
by 8 horses, in which were the Dignitaries appoint-
ed to conduct the ceremony of introduction, proceed-
ed to his Excellency -a hotel, and accompanied him to
the palace. The Ambassador ►was preceded by per-
sons of his suite, bearing the presents sent by his
Sovereign to the King. Regiments of cavalry and
infantry were drawn up in the court of the Tuil-
eries. The Ministers, a considerable number of the
Members of both Chambers, the Marshals, nume-
rous Generals, and various other personages of dis-
tinction, were assembled in the Hull of Audience.
The Marquis Dessolles received his Excellency at
the entrance of the gallery Diana, and conducted
him to the foot of the throne. The Ambassador sa-
luted his Majesty ; the King returned his saluta-
tion, and then covered his head. His Excellency
offered us presents, six shawls, a scimitar, which for.
merly belonged to Ismael, one of the most valorous
Sovereigns of Persia, and a precious stone, affirmed
to be a panacea for all complaints. The Ambasss.
dor addressed the King, the substance of which
was, that " His Sovereign prayed for the continu-
ance of his dynasty." His Majesty replied, " that
he was sensible of his kind ►wishes. and that he
thanked the Emperor of Persia for the choice f his
Amba►ssarlor.'' After making a profound reverence,
which was returned by the King, his Excellency
withdrew,
his Excellency has sent some very superb cache-
mixes to Madame the Duchess d'Angouleme, and the
Duchess de tern.

a
e have received accounts from Buenos Ayres to
the latter end of December. The markets there arc
glutted with European goods, and were likely to re-
-main so till the opening of Peru. The continued
hostilities between Artigas and the Portuguese has
considerably increased the difficulty of obta•ning
produce for the goods sold. Accounts have been re-
ceived from Lima of the nit.vements of the Royalists
in that (loaner. General Serna, who commanded
in Upper Peru, has issued a Proclamation, ordering
till loyal Spaniarft to leave their homes, and to re-
• pair to Oruro where the army was to concentrate
itself. The affairs of the Patriots wear so favour-
ible an aspect, that we believe the number of loyal
Spaniards are diminishing dairy, as the time has ar-
rived when no man should remain neutral i>> the
Spanish Colonies. The best informed persons in
Buenos Ayres are decidedly of opinion that General
Serna's position is not tenable, and that Lord Coe!).
rpne, with the Independent squadron, would keep
the whole coast on the alert, and by threatening
Lima, Arequipa, and Arica, compel the Royalist
army to secure its retreat to Lima, by taking a pmi-
tion on the coast, It was stated that the Viceroy,
Pezucla, rendered uneasy by the delay of the Niaria
Isabel frigate and her convoy, had ordered the Ven-
ga and id Esmeralda frigates to proceed to the
Soraliward for their protection. If this infinanation
siamld prove correct, Lord Cochrane may have an
opportunity of intercepting the only two Spanish
Ligates remaining in those seas.

Saturday the D...1:e of York's Council sat at Wind-
sor Castle, to hear the monthly It eport of the. King's
_physicians. It was attended by the Archbishops of
Canterbury and York, the Bishop of ',onion, Lords
Wincbelsca, Camden, Henley, and St. Helen's, and
Sir %%Pinata Grant. The following is the Report
f the Physicians:—
" %Viansoa catvi.r., APRIL 3, 1819.
His Majesty continues to enjoy a • good state of bodily
I-calth, and has been tranquil and cheerfid through the last
ziontb, but his Majesty's disorder toucans undirnimbhoi."
• Saturday the Prince Regent held a Council at
Carlton 'rouse, which was attended by the Lord
Chancellor, the P,arl of Liverpool. Lord Castle-
reagh, Earl Bathurst, the Duke of Wellington, Mr.
(:roping, &c.
There are various conjectures in the political cir-
clos respecting the visit of Lord Whitworth to Paris.

of Lord Hereford to take this step, it appears, had existed
previous to the trial; but was hastened by the indelicacy of ren-
dering it necessary to call his Lordship as a wi•nese to establish
the di,honottr of his own sister, by not producing the copies of
the Liters sent to Col. Gwynne by Mr. Thynne Gwynne, on the
subject of the intercepted letter. The address to tte gentlemen
of Cuermarthenehire, alluded to in N:r. Cornwall's letter, we un •
derstand, in substance pmnounetal Col. Gwynne " a coward."

TO TOE EDITOR.
Sir,—l rereuest you to insert the following particulars of a
transaction, in your journal. concerning winch the public is
probably already partly informed, and I am desirous, having
myself acted in the capacity of Lotd lieveford's friend upon the
occasion, that no misinterpretation shall go abroad. On the ONtli
lest., after having heard the verdict of the jury in the cause of
"Gwynne v. Gwynne," I waited upon Col. Gwynne, of (;lan-
brane-yark, at his lodgings at Hereford, and had a personal
interview with him, when I delivered to him a message from
Lord Hereford. desiring him immediately to appoint a friend
with whom I might confer, and with whom I might fix the time
and place for a meeting: I added, in the elainest terms, that
Lord Hereford felt, that Col. Gwynne's et:educe had been such
towards him and his family, that he was determined to expose
him in every
.possible way, unless Col. Gwynne consented to give
him satisfaction. Although I had addressed, subsequently to
this personal interview, two letters that same evening to Cul.
Gwynne, I received no satisfactory answer from him, either by
word or mouth or by letter; 1 therefore followed Col. Gwynne to
Ross, very early on Friday morning, the 26th inst., and found
bins at die Swan Inn; there, is the presence of Henry Welling-
ton. F.sq. of Hay Castle, whom I had the precaution to take
with me, Col. Gwynne accepted the challenge, which I repeated
to him on behalf of Loed Hereford, and promised to name a
friend as his second, by a messenger to me at Aloccas on the
following day. On Saturday the reth instant, about mid-day,
I received at Moccas, a few lines from Colonel Gwynne,
naming Mr. John Michael Gandere, of Llantlovery, as his
friend. I went immediately to I.landovery, and on Sum
day morning, the Rath instant, waived upon Mr. Good-
ere, at LI/mei-over), (having previously made proper arrangements
with Lord Hereford, that he should he, at a certain hour, at a
cenvenient place in the neighbourhood, waiting for my directions.)
At my first interview with ',lr. Goodere, he, protesaing a desire to
ace Colonel Gwynne barite time and place fur the meeting could
be settled. left me for that purpose, with the assurance that he
wale] return to the in two hours. The second interview took
place at the stated dine at the Castle inn. Mr. Goodere then
delivered to me a letter, written by himself, stating that he had
ss advised Col. Gwynne to decline any message from Lord Ilere•
ford." I could not check my feelings sufficiently on reading this
letter, to prevent the expressing of my opinion with considerable
warmth, en the conduct of Colonel Gwynne. and oa the advice
which Mr. Goodere admitnd he had given to him: and I read to
Mr. Goodere the minutes I had made at Ross, of the conversation
I had with ed. Gwyntie t4ien he accepted Lord Ilerethed's
challenge. It then became my duty to fillOW to Mr. Good:re an
address to the Gentlemen of Caennarthenshire, which Lord Here-
ford hail previously furnished me with, and which has been
I posted in the coffee-room at Brecon, and that of the hotel in
' Ileretiorl. I represented to him, that it was Lord Hereford's
intention to make it public by every means in hi, power. I re
quested :Mr. Goodere to take a Co., of that address; and lie took
a copy in my 'mese:tee. I then stated. the :t I should not be cads.
fled without seeing Col. G wynne, in order that I might hear from
his own mouth the approval of the sentiments contained in Mr.
Goodere's letter. Mr. Gorelere conducted me to CuL Gwyane.
' whom we met on horseback, in the road to Trecasile Colonel
Gwynne having read Mr. (Modems letter tonic, ,rated distinctly,
" His scinimente arc mine: I shall act by the advice of my
friend." I then requested Mfr. Goodere to produce the copy lie
bad made of the aderess from taint Herefonl to the gentlemen m'
Caeimerthenshire, and to give it to t 01. Gwynne to read. Colonel
Gwynne read that copy in my present., wink I held the original,
written and signed by Lord Hereford, open before him in my
' hand. Ilaving stated to Cal. Gwynne that Lord Hereford would
make that address public by every means in his power, Colonel
t:wenne remarked, that lie had letters which lie could publish,
and he would move the Court of King's Bench against laird•lle.
retired. I then quitted Col. Gwynne and Mr. J. M. Goodere, but
returned in the course of the evening with Lord Hereford to
Llandovery, who posted against the Town Hall and the Castle inn
door at Llantlovery, two copies of the address to the Gentlemen
of Cuerinarthenshire written by himself, with e few explaaatury
particulars, subjoined and written by me.

it is very generally rumoured, that Mrs. Th vane (:wynne has

in a state of great mental misery ; heightened, no doubt, by the
conduct of that person for whom she deserted a man of honour.)
