We yesterday received Paris Papers of Wednesday
last. The following are the anily articles worth Lxtraet-

iug :-

PARIS, AUG. 18.--A rumours is circulated, that the
negociations which are carrying on in Path between
Spain and Portugal, are on the eve of concluding, and
that the Spaniards.w•ili be put is possession of Monte
Video as soon as possible.
His Royal Highness the Dale of Gloucester left
Berl-Imi on the 12th inst. for Agen, from whence he
will proceed to the baths of Bareges and those of Bug.
;;eres ; from thence his Royal Highness will proceed to
Lyons, and make an excursion to Geneva. It is reported
that this Prince will return to France towards the end
'ef October, on a visit to our capital.

The King has reccr.tly itsued an ordinance which
kijcios a new kind of playing cards, the figures on
w4ich arc taken from our history. Those card' arc
the invention of the Sieur Houbigar., and may be manu-
factured by all of the trade in France. Their use will
be adopted from the 16th September next.

the inithitants, but also du; cunceAion of laud latch,

masks I;y the Spanish Government. This mewure is very
fortunate shr the new proprietors: amougst these latter'
crc several Noblemen, whom the King honours with
his s;:ccial esteem.

By account!, America we learn that the Insvr-
:.;ents itett.;l by retaliation in regoard to us. They
have shot t;ve °Slicers of the battalion of Nutaance, and
all the prioncra which fell into their power aft« r the
toting of Ortiz. This unhoppy intelligenceforins the
posteript or the report of the Genera/ in Chiet:

An article in the Nladrid Official Garctte states. that
the obligations relative to the subject of claims between
the Governments of. France and Spain being declared
reciprocal by an additional article in the Treaty of the
20th July, 1818, it has !keen agreed " that one moiety
of the total sum due by France shall remain in deposit,
in the hands of. nu equal number of Commissioners of
each nation, until the Spanish Government shall have
provided funds to liquidate the French claims. The
Spanish claimants will receive interest fur the sum
deposited.

We solicit the attcnticn of our readers to the in-
telligence from Ceylon, which will be found in another
part of our paper. The proclamation of Governor
Brownrlgg will speak for itscle, as to the state of the
miserable country which he administers. The rebel-
lion scents •to be more diffused and consolidated, the
inhabitants more fierce, and the combats more frequent,
than they were reprucntid to be by any thrmer
advices.

Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's, at
Barbadoes, dated July 5, 1818 :—" By the arrival of
a schooner from St. Thomas's, information has been
received of the Spaniards having taken possession of
the brig Eclipse, Wormington, of this place, which
vessel sailed from this for St. Domingo a few weeks
ago. Capt. Wormingtcn had been taken to the city of
St. Domingo, thrown into a dungeon, and loaded with •
heavy irons, the brh dismantled, and the whole of the
crew put in confinement. The plea for this outrageous
insult on the British flag is, that they found two guns
mounted on deck, and six or eight dismounted in the
hold, as ballast. and therefore concluded she was an
Insurgent privateer, a Spaniard having come forward
and swore that tapt. Wormington had taken his vessel
a few weeks before, and kept him n prisoner 14 days.
The Scatuander frigate has been dispatched by Admiral
Harvey to demand un explanation from the Spanish
Governor."

Letters and papers have reached us from India, to
a date much wore recent than that of any former in-
telligence from the same quarter. The most interesting
portion of the news thus communicated respects the
operations against the Peishwa's remaining force, un-
der the Generals Smith and Pritzler, who alone con-
tinue in the field, and add daily proofs to those already
afforded, both of their professional zeal and of the
difficulties of that service which they have not yet
succeeded in tcrinivating. In all parts of India but
but towards the south-cast, the v,.ar was at an end,
and the armies had retired. The general ore.ers of the
Marquis of Hastings are dated February 21, when his
Lordship took leave of the several divisions, and warmly
thanked the officers who had commanded them. The
Pindarrees were utterly annihilated as a power, and
many of their Chiefs bud u,ceptc‘i lands from the Bri.
tish Government, as their only means of subsistence.—
The army of Sir Thomas Hislop was to break up on
the Slst of March ; and that distinguished officer,
having completed the service assigned to him, was to
proceed to Madras, his old head-quarters, under au
escort of the Royals, the Rifle Corps. and Rockets.—
The Bombay Gaz.etle of the Ist of April asserts, on the
authority of letters from General Smith's camp, dated
March 24, that the .var with the Peishwa bade fair to
be speedily finished. Bag-ce Row was moving to Nag.
pore, with a fume computed at 25,000 men, not know.
ing that General Dolman waited his approach Gen.
Smith pursued him closely ; a battle was looked for,
and the issue of that battle was nut an object of anxiety.
An epidemic disease raged amongst the British troops
in India, and had proved fatal in many instances.
Aix-la-Chapelle, anti the adjacent villages, are crowd-
ed wi►h foreigners. Every thing is esotbituntly dear,
, and will be still more so when the Sovereign, and their
! suites arrive. The Dukes of Wellington and Richelieu,
and Lord Castlereagh, will reach Aix-le-Chaps:llc much
about the same time.

Papers of a late date have been received from New
Saudi Wa!es. They state the arrival at Port Jackson
of a vessel from Otaheite, which brought ;ntere4ing
iiitAligence of tae English Missionaries having visited
Otalwite, and converted all the Islanders to Christianity.

The vintage in Frunce, it, is said, will be finer this
autumn, thins it has been fvs the last 10 years.

the lealders were standing out for a better price. The
assigurd fur the rise, which former accounts did
wet eneourage the speculator to expert, was the sudden
destruction of the crop in the pros ince of Nankin,
when it was just on the point of being gathered in. It
is mentioned in letters from. .14wrzapore, that cotton
had been fallinz in that market for several days. Ac.

A Mail has arrived from Halifax, Nuva Scotia, with
letters and papers to the 21st ult. It is stated is
the latter, that since the execution of .Mr.Arbuthnott,
the conferences between the. British and Spanish em-
batsies at Washington had been more frequent, and of
longer duration than heretofore. The Act, constituting
Halifax and St. John's free ports, had given great sa-
tisfaction to the -inhabitants of our North American
colonies. In consequence of the great drought, the
woods between Liverpool and Port I.lhtton took fire,
and burnt from Milts Port to the Western Head.—
The ravages were dreadful ; twelve houses, and al-
most all the crops of grain, grass, and potatoes, Loge.
ther with an immense quantity of timber, were de.
stroyed. The instructions re -eta!), sent out respectimg
the encroachments of the American fishermen on the
coasts of British North America are similar to those
of last year ; namely, 46 that when found hovering
upon the coasts, they are to be warned off; and if
found in the bays or harbours, to be seized, and
brought in for trial."

The following is an extract of a private letter front
Mount Holly, in North America, addressed to a com-
mercial imuse in this country :—" 'Manufactories arc
going on here, but in my opinion without a prospect tn
being carried on to any great effect. One in particular,
that some years past was considerable, is now almost
annihilated-1 mean the iron works ; the produce of
which was a good remittance, especially to Englani.
These works are now in ruins ; and on the ruins of
many of them, mills for carding and spinning have
been erected; which, iu the time of the late war, were
said to be productive to the owners ; but since the peace,
I find many of them are advertised to be let or sold,
front which I conclude they are become unprofitable.
In reality, I am of opinion, that manufactories of almost
every description cannot flourish on this side of thu
water, so long as the price of labour continues to O.;
from three to four times as much as with you, supposing
the money of each country to be reduced to a common
standard.'

Lora Ellenborough is nearly recovered from Lis in.
disposition ; but his Lordship, it is said, expresses his
deterniination to retire Gina the fatigues of office, at
toots al possible.

A lc. tel. from Gloucester, dated the 17th of August,
sacs:—" The Under Sheriff thr this county returned
ti ma f ondon,- bsarito, a letter from the Lord Chancel-
lir to Judges. The contents of this letter have not
trans;Ur• ;. hat we understand that the Lomb Chancel-
i,tr, ::unto consultation with the Solicitor General,
was ofopinion that a new commis:ion must be issued.
A meeting oft e Attornies and Barristers took place in
the Nisi Prins Cotsrt, when soveral questions arising
out of the' delay which has taken place were started.—
First, it was asked, whether, in the taxation of costs,
the expences iocurrod in =ending this Assize would
be allowed. There was no-positive opinion given upon
this, although the impres.inu was, that as, in point of
fact, there had been no tssize holden, ro expellees
incurred under such eiratonstances would be allowed
It was next asked whether, in cavil whore notice of
counter:mm(l had been given for thes.: Assizes, a f:csli
notice might be given under the new Commission. To
this also the Counsel .declined giving un opinion. It
was recommended in all cases, however, by way of
precaution, that fresh notices of trial should be given.
Some of the Attornies then asked, whether refreshers
were to be given where briefs bad been ddiverel? Mr.
Datinceysaid,. that was a matter entirel.: for their own
consideration: but he thought they all ought to be
equal participators in the inconvenience, which was
certainly unavoidable. The meeting then broke up.—
In the course of the day the Judges and Gentlemen of
the Bar quitted the town." _ _ _

The new Commission fcr the Assizes of Gloucester-
shire, and the City of 01nm:ester. lres passed the Great
Seal; and the business will be proceeded upon in both
Courts, at nine o'clock on Monday, the 31st inst.

POLAR EXFEDMOV.—The following is an extract
of a letter from Ilanif, dated the•9th inst. :—" Captain
Ridley, of the Triad whale :kip, of t►tis port, just re-
turned from the Northern Ocean, ialorats us, that on
the 10th of May, he was in lat. 80. 55. about eight
miles from Spitsbergen, in 22 fathoms water• ; the sun
was at a great altitude ; there was scarcely any night ;
they could fellow the glorious luminary circling again
and again round the heavens—the atmosphere at this
time was very clear—Capt. R. went to the top-mast,
and could see with a gloss to the extent of between .10
and 50 miles (as he. supposes) across the great Paw
Ocean, which was much more open than when he was
in lat.-131. last year. There were indeed large islands
of flaw ice floating about; but he is sure the sea was
navigable, without great difficulty, a; far as the eye
could roach. But the ice was running. ashore, and ac-
cninulating in large masses on the northern coast of
Spitzbergen. Captain R. thins the expedition came.
too late; presaming that the opening he foam] would
soon be close:!; and, as fhr as he knows, it was then
the only one westward of Spitsbergen ; 'Capt. R. says,
that when he left the sea, there was an immense nen-
' mutation of Auld and -flaw ice, -stretching. almost from
shore to shore. He quitted the vicinity of.Spitzbergcn
about She 15th of May, end direeted his mum towards
Greenland. About the middle of dune, being in let.
78. 120 miles from land, as nearly as he tem.int:lse,
the weather very rainy, with a thick fug, he.spoke an
Aberdeen•whdle fishing the IMaster• of which hal

and went on board with •bis log-book. He was in-
formed by the Officers, that thy had explored in every
direction to the wost of Spitzbergeu, for .n Fassege
northward, but could not get hell a degree 'farther
than they then were. They were st.eing S. V. when
last saen. Whether they :night not toed it practicable
to pass between Spitzbergin and Nava Zemhlu. is
unothe.r question. Their S.Wecoursewoold-Enciumus
to think they did nit intend trying it "at that timees—
From all this, there is much apparent cause for regret
that the Expedition did not set out sooner; us then
they might have Nested Spitsbergen, and entered the
11010e-Basin by the opening which Capt. Ridley found.
Captain R. says, he heard thia the aggregation of ice
islands in Davis's Strata was very appalling. If this
be tree, the progress of :the other ships is rendered
equally improbable ; sal the gratification of our ar-
dent desire to know whether.Greenland.be an Island
or not, must at least be postponed."
Lord Cochrane has, it is said, sailed from Boulogne
for South America, in a vessel called the Rose.

In the trial.of the cause Kirby v. Spooner, r.sri. sit
the last Cambridge Assizes, a point of very.conridera-
ble importance to the public was brought under the
notice of the Court. Mr. Sweeting, the ruder
riff, having been railed upon to state the practice as to
the general charges levitsl under executions, said, " The
clustant practice has been to levy unJer all executions
the amount of the levy, poundage, officer's fees, and
other expcnees incurred in makirrs the levy." T.Tpoa.
