2. The removal et public signs

tined to propagate the spirit of rebellion, or to trou-
ble the public peace.
g. Whoever, by any one of the means pointed out
in article Ist of the law of the 17th of May, 1819,

by exciting the contempt or hatred of citizens against
one or several classes ofpersons, shall be punished by

11. Article 10 of the law of the 9th of June is
common to all the provisions of the present title, in.
so far as they apply to the proprietors or editors of
a journal or periodical writing.
TITLE 11.-Of PROSECUTION.
12.—1 n the case of offence tuwards the Chambers,
or either of them, by one of the means pointed out
in the law of the 17th of May, 1819 s offendad
Chamber may, on the mere complaint of one of its
members, if it do not prcter to authorize a prosecu-
tion by the ordinary course, order the accused to be
brought to the bar. After he shall have been heard,
or duly summoned, it will condemn him, if there be
cause, to the penalties enacted by the laws. The
sentence shall be executed on the order of the Presi-
dent of the Chamber.

cause its virulence had sensibly diminished. The
number of deaths on the 18th, 19th, and 20th,
amounted to 81, 82, 53. It is observed, that the
greater part of those who have sit or wbp. t•
are at present labouring under. the" üb, are pee .
sons who clandestinely 4161.11 Ki tM sky teat wesh,
whose numbers are acid to amount to 8,000. M.
Lopes, a celebrated physician of Bereciens, writes,
under the same date, that there were only eight per _
tients, and that they were all persons who had lately
entered the city.
Another letter from Barcelona, dated November
22, gives satisfactory intelligence which we hasten
to make known. " The malady is at an end ; the
number of deaths is only between 20 and 25. The
French physicians departed two days ago ; they re-
ceived the most affecting adieus. A hope had been
entertained that Dr. Bally would remain till the
30th with the young surgeon Jouarry, as he had
expressed his intention of doing, but on the 18th,
either from the effect of his multiplied cases, or in
consequence of fatigue from his attendance on the
hospitals, he was again attacked with contagion,
and for a whole day excited the most lively alarm
for his recovery. His state being a little improved
on the 19th, and permitting him to be moved, his
courageous friends, Francois and Poriset, forced
him into quarantine in spite of his entreaties and
tears. It is difficult to form an idea of the kindness
and generous devotion of this wotthy apostle of hu-
manity."
ODISSA, Nov. 9.—For some days put the au-
thorities have been in possession of intelligence that
the Persians have invaded the Turkish frontier.—
This circumstance has produced a strong sensation.
and from it all the Greeks who are here predict the
fall of t Ottoman empire. We have letters from
le of the 2d inn, They assure us that
the Grand Seignor bas ordered all the Persians who
were in the capital to be thrown into dungeons ;
that a part of the Janissaries had received orders to
proceed to Asia against the Persian invaders : and
finally, that messengers had ben despatched to
Epirus, with orders of recall fur the Pacha who was
proceeding against AIL This Pacha is not disgraced,
his Highness has contarred on him the command of
the troops destined to repel the awash' of the son of
the Schah of Persia.

Tuileries, Nov. 7.

We hear from Smyrna, the 28th of October th*
every day there are massacres of the Christians.
VIENNA, Nov. 22.—The Regency of Lower
Austria has published a circular against the sect of
the Carbonari, in which it is said that their object is
to overturn existing Governments. Those who may
enter it are therefore declared guilty of high treason.
FRANKFORT, Nov. 27.—We are impatient here
to learn what effect the return of Prince Metternich
to Vienna will have on the public funds. Fur two
days we have vainly expected letters, announcing a
rise in the Austrian funds. Already we begin to
apprehend that the assurances of our bankers, who,
on the faith of Prince Metternich, persist in main-
taining that the peace will not be disturbed, will be
belied by the event.
We had learnt by former letters from St. Peters-
burgh, that Lord Strangtbrd, who for some time has
exercised great influence over the Divan, bad trans-
mitted to Count Nesselrode, by English diplomatic
agents residing at Petersburgh, a memoir in support
of the note which the Reis Effendi have lately sent
to the Russian cabinet, a inemair in which the cause
of the Turks is defendal by the ordinary arguments,
In reply, the Emperor commanded Count Lieven,
his niiiiister at London, to communicate to the Bri-
tish Cabinet the ultimatum of which mention has so
often been wade, and to assure it at the saute time,
that his Imperial Majesty entertained the most si,:-
cere and ardent wishes that Lord Strangford
be able, by the preponderating influence wbieh he
enjoys, to determine the Divan to accept the pm-
positions of Russia. It is generally thought, lioa -
ever, at Petersburgh, that the interference of tl:e
British Cabinet in the differences between the Court
of Russia and the Porte is hide agreeable to the
former.

Insult given to a minister of the religion of the
r:rte, or of one of the religions legally recognised in
France, in the exercise of his functions, shall be pit-
by the penalties enacted by article lit of the
i•a.S.2 tit LW.

(f the outrage in the different cases contemplated
• the present article have been accompanied by
./tiSe or violence towards the persons, the culprit
51...11 be punished contimniably to articles 228, 2.29,
231, 232, and 233 of the Penal Code.

7• Infidelity and bad fitith in the accounts which
journals and periodical writings give of the sit.
lings of the Chambers, and the proceedings ot courts
and tribunals, shill' be punished by a fine of front
1,000 to 8,000 francs.
In case of repetition, or where the account given
shalt be orensive to either of the Chamber,, ur to
one of the Peers or Deputies, or injurious to the
tribunal, or u►agistrute, or to the jurors or
tt•itnesse3, the editor of the journal elan be farther
condemned to an imprisotiment of from one to three
years.
