The hotel Brumaire. in the.street Marschirstrofd,

It is a new building, not quite &sashed, and work-
men are engaged in it night and day, to prepare it
for the Emperor's reception, The Hotel °Neiman's,
which is engaged for the King of Prussia, is not
above twenty-five paces distant from the Hotel
Brueorner. It is email, but in elegance and inter-

it is said that the Emperor will be back again

course of the month of December. As his Ma-
jesty intends to take Vienna in his way back, and

FROM ?lIE MAINR, AUGUST SO.

The German 414serigtr, whirls is published in
Dinntitsigh, takes occasion, from an article in the
sew Constitution of Bavaria, to speak of the future
relations of the Grand Duchy of Barlett, both with
respect to territory, and to the succession to which
the attention of the public has beets for some time
attracted. This ()Wretr has, this time, not ob-
served rightly, nor every thing, not even what lks
clearly before his eyes. A Sovereign noose, which
has five male members ahve, three of whom are
its the prime of life and health, is not in danger of
being t xtinguisked its the male line. But even if
the present Grand Duke were the last of the male
hue, and were now to die, lie has three daughters
living, and every hotly acquainted with these mat-
ters, knows that each of (hem and her descendants
in tbeerder of priinogeniture, wonlJ exclude T

The 'reprisal* which France has exercised for.-
some time against the government of Friburg, which
has thought it necessary to send away from the

Friburg passports, and in the suspension of the
military pensions, to indemnify with their amount,

that they have been required to take out " Act's of

It is true that the Court, in the first histnnee, entered up
judgment of destb against him, hot immediately thereafter,
and before the procettlings bad been taut before the General,
the Court rescinded drat judgment, and sentenced the Pri-

this sentence, and ordered the wretched victim to instant

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, ISIS.

Now, let it be considered had the Court the right to try
these meu, shoot which there is ithumlasst room to doubt ;
and kt it abe be supposed that the Court, instead of
dogging and imprisonment, had sentenced Ambristie to be
shot, still the que.tiois will recur, IVhy this iudecent hurry
in the Commander-in-Chief! Why were not the two cases
referred to the President for hi% dreision ?

By the 65111 Article of W.ie (Act of Congress, April 10,
MS), it is expressly enacted, that " No sentence of a Ge-
neral Court-Martial is line of ;gore, extending 10 the lons
of life, shall be carried into titivation until the whole pro•
credings shall 'lave been laid hi fore the President of tie
United States for Isis conarniation ur approval, and order;
in the ease."

To the foregoing, this fact may be added, General Jackson
has left positive iustructious with the Officer cummandiug in
Florida, not to yield the Spanish posts to any authority
irkalecer, not even to the orders of the President of the
United States, without giving him (General Jackson) --
days previous notice.
Num HAWS —Capt. Bird, from Ana Cayes, informs that
Christophe and his forces remained quietly shout fourteen
leagues from Port-au•Prince, and that the troops which had
been ordered by Boyer to P-.rt•au•Prince had returned,

Christopbe.

Since our last publication, Paris Papers of Tues. I
day, Wednesday, and Thursday have arrived at
our office. Those persons who were some time
since imprisoned in Paris, on the charge of it con-
spiracy against the Government, express themselves
as very desirous to have their case expedited to trial,
and according to private accounts which we have
received, pride themselves not a little in what they
consider the honourable distinction which they en-
joy. It is certain that, whether sal/ported by their
ideas of conscious rectitude, and thence deducing
the idea of impunity, or receiving assurances of
assistance from certain powerful individuals, the
accused seem to entertain no apprehensions of dan-
ger. It will also be remembered with what anxiety
General DONIIAUIEU requested the Editor of
the Quotidienne to amend a report respecting his
having undergone an examination, and to state
that his examination was as of an accomplice,
and not as of a witness. The friends of the
Miniiters do not scruple to assert that this appa-
rent contempt of justice arises from the countenance
these alleged conspirators receive from several
members of the Royal Family. 'General ngb.- N N
DIEU is stated to have thus expressed himself, in
his examination by M. Mottles, the Jugs .srlas-
strectitsa: Yes, I confess I am a conspirator—
I have conspired at Grenoble, at Bourdeaux, at
Lyons, against the infamous Ministers of his MX.
41tertY—but against Louts XVIII. never. If my
sword were within two inches of his heart, a man
such es I um ought to he above suspicion, awl
allowed to be acting fur the best." if this be not
extreme insolence, it is at least great nonsense.
The intelligence from Spain notices the efforts
made by the Government to prepare the means of
asserting its power over the revolted Provinces of
South America. But they are efforts that mark
despair and imbecility. To raise money, recourse
is had to the most disgraceful expedients. and even
nobility is exposed to public lisle, with a schedule
stating the prices of the several ranks. Thus the
Moinircliy is weakened to support the 'despotism,
and in disgracing the Nobility, the Throne is shaken

The Third Report of the Select Committee of
the House of Coannosis on the Education of the
Lower Orders has been printed, and is given in

itrtelltgence, that the anxiety of the poor for etlu-

ing Charitable Funds connected with► E►iucatiots,
and also several public Schools and Clisrities,
in which much neglect and ahvist, have beets
disco►ered. In both Eton and Winchester con-
siderable unauthorised deviiitions have been made
from the original plans of the founders, dictated
more by a regard to the interests of the Fellows
than of the Scholar', who were the main object of
the Founder's bounty. The Committee, however,
acquit the present Fellows of all blame in this
respect.
