AFFAIR OF FUALDERS.

" The Trial of Gone and Bessicre-Veynae, accused
of being accomplices in the horrid murder of M. Foal-
des, still occupies the Assize Court of Al- i. The pro-
lixity of the proceedings in this affair appear to have
exhausted public curiosity ; Ina, on the 28th inst., the
day on which Madame Manson gave her tleposition, the
avenues of the Court were thronged, and the interior

All eyes accompanied her to the witnesses seat, and re-
mained directed towards her.

" The Judge addressed to her the following exhor-
tation :—" Madame, You arc called nixm in further-
ance of justice, to reveal all that you know relative to a
terrible crime, in order that the guilty may be discover-
ed. You, have not always spoken the truth. We know
that at those times von were restrained by alarms which
leul been secretly inspired. But to-day the same mo.
tives no longer exist, and you ought to feel secure. You
were made to take a dreadful oath to On your secresy ;
that oath could not be binding. The one you take to-
day iu the cause of justice, bears a very different solem-
nity ; its sacred character (liars entirely from thut
which wes administete I by force over a bloody corpse.
It is before Goy, in the presence of this Court and the
the Jury, that you engtige to tell the truth ; let us
hear it unreservedly."
" Madam Manson then proceeded with her deposi-
tion, which differed from what she delitered at the
fhrruer trial only by her stating, that in the then agita-
tion of her mind, she had forgotten to mention en im-
portant tact, which was. that she heard the rustling of
papers ut the moment that M. Fealties exclaimed. " I
have left you all I pus.•ess !" She described herself us
Meg disguised in pantaloons and a due spencer, when
the impulse of her mysterious indiscretion led her to the
theatre of the crime. She asserted, in the most une-
quivocal term:;, that G.nce anti Bessie! e-Veyrue, the
two accused persons at tke bar, were amongst the per-
petrators of the tu.wder, aad positively recognized their
features. Several facts, in evilence, were strong pre-
sumptive proof of their complicity-
" One hundred and two white ises have already been
examined ; it is expected, that a few more sittings will
conclude the cause.'

An incipient proposition of the two Chambers, to
solicit a pension from the king of France, for the
Dale of Richlieu, has been met by a letter from that
illustrious Nobleman, tvldressed to the Chamber of
Deputies, in which he magnanimously declines bur-
dening the public revenues with a provision for him-
self, during the present impoverished condition of 'he
country. There was a debate as to matter of form,
whether the proposition should not rather originate
with the King►, from which the Chamber does not
appear to have been extricated by the Duke's letter.

Letters and Buenos Ayres Gazettes to the 28th Oct.
being the latest date in town, were received yesterday.
The British merchants in that place had, after various
interviews with Commodore Bowles, the British Naval
Officer on that station, and the supreme Director, suc-
cessfully opposed the contributions which had been
proposed by Puerrydon to have been levied upon them ;
and the natives alone, we understand, were to ,supply
the pecuniary wants of the Government. Artigas'
cruizers, manned with subjects of all nations, but prin-
cipally people from Baltimore, continued their captures
on different parts of the coast. A new brig, teak built
at Baltimore, called the Irrisistible, with 16 guns, and
470 men, had done much damage.
The Buenos Ayres Gazettes, extracts from which we
subjoin, contain all the particulars of the manner in
which the troops on board the Trinidad, (one of the
vessels which sailed from Cadiz in May last), were re-
ceived by the Inhabitants of Buenos Ayres.
" BUENOS AYRSS, Sept. 9.—On Sunday last, the
friends of liberty, from the Trinidad Spanish frigate,
made their public entrance into this capital, of which
we gave the particulars in our former number. The
troops of the garrison funned themselves into columns
in the streets, from the Residencia to the Place de la
Victoria, and our new guests marched between them.
The national standard was carried by the famous Re
migo Martinee, whom the Government has lately ad-
vanced to the rank of Lieutenant of our armies. This
exhibition was truly a great triumph. The concourse
of people, the acclamations, and other ordinary and ex-
traordinary demonstrations of joy, were such as can
only be conceived on this happy occasion. Our new
comrades having arrived at the Placa de la Victoria, the
Brigadier-General of the Staff, Don Josi Rondeau, ad-
deesscd them.

" The harangue was received by shouts and accla-
mations in thvour of the Supreme Director, of the
Sovereign Congress, and of the military three. Our
new friends were immediately directed to the habitations
appointed fur them in the cantonments of the regiment
of warriors, to which they have been joined. All classes
of the people throng to satisfy their curiosity, by
viewing the new comers, to whom they shewel every
wark of respect aad attention. Many Otfiters of this
place have given 700 dollars for the relief of their new
companions in artn ..—We wish to make nations under-
stand that the peui,:o of Cacaos Ayres esteem, as they
ought to do, the merit of such an action, and that of
the freemen of the Tkinidad:'
