Paris Papers of Saturday last have arrived at our
Office. By These, and private letters derived from
other sources, we learn that the conferences of the
Sovereigns at Aix-la-Chapelle have commenced,
and are putted forward with such eirnelt actiVity;
that the termination of the Congress begins to be
anticipated as not far distant. It seems that, pre-
thous to the formal conferences of the Monarchs,
the Ministers of the Allied Powers had advanced
far towards deciding upon the great questieini re&
served (or this Congress—ond • belief is entertain
ed, that, in these Ministerial meetings, the evacoa:
tion of France had been determined. But so nu-
merous are the considerations connected with this
point, and so Various are the devices proposed by
the timid beighbobrs of France to Counteract the
evils that are apprehended from the removal of the
Allied Army, that the queition of withdrawing the
army beyond the French frontiers appears to lose
a considerable share Of the importance originally
and naturally attached to it. The Metitellenth

France. Upon the inipoliry and danger or adopt-
ing such a measure le have already spoken
more than once ; but we cannot iinagine that any
Statesman among the Ministers and Diplomatists's
now assembled at Aix-la•Chapelle, could, for an ins;
staid, entertain such • proposition, in prefeience
to continuing the army in its present quarters, and
we feel convinced that every Frenchman would feel
less degraded and galled by paying an army within
the frontiers. thin in any of the neighbouring coun-
tries. The danger arising from exasperating the
people of France would, in the latter case, we con-
ceive. be greater than in the former, and the power
of repressing hostility would, on the part of the
Allies, be much diminished by resigning the cau-
tionary fortresses.

This, it cannot be doubted, is preparatory to the
evacuation. It will be the erne du depart, so
long and so fondly anticipated by the people of
Paris. Letters from Cambray state, that there will
be a sale of horses belonging to British Officers in
that city on the 44th, and what is a much more
unequivocal proof that this great and wise measure
has been determined, a notice was posted at Lloyd's
last morning, stating that Government wished to
contract fur the conveyance of stores from Antwerp
to the Thames. We cannot doubt that the stores
thus noticed belong to the British army in France,
and their shipment for the Thames implies, of
course, the return of the army. The tenders are to
be made this morning to Government, and the ships
offering must be ready to sail immediately. Is it
not strange with these, and many other circum-
stances not less strong, before the public, that the
respective Governments whose people are most in-
terested in the determination of the question, should
still affect an air of mystery and indecision

and since her departure a liberal weekly stipend has

that it is only necessary to glance at it briefly :

enamoured of Niko, the ward of Dr. Bartolo.

it shall be won by merit, not by rank or tide, the

The piece was received with the utmost applause.
While the performers were executing the Plate,
souse persons, probably iutotticated, who load come
in at half-price, raised a violent outcry iu the hot,
lobbies. The female part of the audience, fear-
ing that souse dreadful accident had occurred,
became greatly alarmed—many persons rose from
their seats, fur the purpose of rushing outs—but
the strenuous exertions of a 'somber of sensitole

where he seems on the eve of losing his " dear

A 'correspondent, who has favoured us with some
obstriations on the subject of harvesting French,
Turkey, and scarlet beaus, says—lt has generally
be&n supposed, that they should hang on the brume
until they get thy, in order to procure good seed,
which, be adds, is a mistaken notion, as in conse-
quence, very little that has proved good hes been
saved of late years, the unisons having proved .wet
awl frosty, lwfore they were thought sufficiently
ripe. This difficulty, he asserts, experience has
taught him, may be easily obviated, by gathering
the beans immediately as they begin to wither, or
feel soft near the string, or upper entl of the poll,
and harvesting them as the weather permits. By
this practice much time will he saved, and die teed
being then perfect, and free from the effects of se-
vere weather, will vegetate sooner and stronger,
than any that may have been saved in the ordinary
way.
At the last Wells Assizes a cause was tried, for
the second time, respecting the warranty of 100
sheep, which the seller, who lived in Somersetshire,
engaged to deliver to the purchaser, a gentleman
of fortune, at his seat in Kent. One thing soon
became certain, and that was, that all the sheep
had the rot soon after their arrival at the place of
their destination. The 'proof of this was most posi-
tive, fur within a short tune they all died of it. A
question here arose, whether the sheep had coil.

very; the purchaser refusing to pay because they
were unsound, end the seller claiming the benefit
of his bargain because lie maintained the sheep
were sound. IVitsiesses were drawn up against
each other in flat contrad,ction. and the Jury
would have been puzzled io their decision, had

farmer declaring that his experience did not extend •
so far as that, his Lordship said, ."fliets 1 would

John Daly violently. striking I several blows
with a tailor's Pletves.broaril.
As sown as the Jury said toren sworn, they took u
view of the hotly, will on their return the following
esidence was entered into
air. Charles Jolliness, a prisoner confined in the
Fleet. stated, that on last Saturday afternoon he
was walking about rix beet from the WIIIIII/W ml tl r
racket Knead. and saw the flecemied fall f
hi. shop-board—lie had seen han previ 4444 % In the
affair taking place. Ihe otreearil was a tailor by
orates,' ; he heard him call iont " ureirr !"
Wittiesos went up to the window, *nil looked
through it ; he there saw Daly tooting the unfor-
tunate roan with a sleeve-board ; the deceased
was at the thee on the ground. Witness i -
diately opened the window, called for asosiistruice
and moist, ~in the of God, don't kill the
inati;•" at that Dale caught hold if him (the
dere:wed). end called nut, "1l your eyes,

" D--+a his eyes. the rare I have not given him
half s heating yet." Mimi's saw him go twelve or
fourteen yards olt, and tlwts returned and jumped
into the ileceased'a room again. The witness said to
Prisotten " In the name of God go into the
room," which he immediately slid. %Vanes* then
went to his room and took his tea.

Questions from uue of the Jury—lVliere were
you at the time ?
Answer—lu the racket-ground ; Daly appeared
at the time io a violent passion; he considered him
quite sober.'
Wm. Graves, another prisoner, letw Daly shunt
five o'clock at the freest of the *nohow of the rte-
ceesest's opartment. Ile said to seveiai persons
round, he had struck the deces4sl two or three
blows with the eleeve=board, and that Ice would uot
forget hint, and also Made use Of many bad ex-
pressions. Wither; stated that he dial nut like
to strike an old man with his fists, which made
him make use or the sleeve-board. He said
the deceased had behaved very ill in not giving
the letter to him which he had found, but had
given it to a loan it • chandler's shop. He ac-
cused the deceased of haviug two letters which he
should have given to him, instead of any oilier per-
son. The deceased declared lie did not filial any
letter, nor had he given any to Mr. Lewis. Daly
olisersed, he had lint done with him yet, and that
when he proved, which lie could sin, that he had
given Mr. Lewis the letter, he would serve him out
egotist. The deceased then replied, he had done
pretty well, for lie had almost broke lit% leg. Wit.
nes+ and Daly then left the room together.
Several quest were here put by the Jurytneu,
but witness could give no positive answers.
%Ir. Thorium Hunt, a prisoner iii the Fleet, said,
on SatUrday afternoon, about five o'clock, he was
looking out of his room, and saw several persons et
the deceased's window, and heard them cry out
" Don't beat him so." He resides sun the hell ph
Ivry, and iustiontly ran to the deceit-eel's room in
the Fair; he lay on the ground at the lime. and
witness took 1. up and placed him on a chair,
sod said to I • , " Good God ! wha.'s the matter ?"
At this time Daly was at the window, mud most
haso4 !ward what the deceased said. Witness asked
the deceased what it was for, when Daly said it was
for picking up a letter mud not retuning it to hint.
Witness then said to the deceased, " Is it true?"
He replied. " No, I know nothing of any letter."
Doty then came into the room, accused him of iu.
gratitude, and said he limit given ii • two or three
stripes with the sleeve-board, and it served hint
right. Witness then left the room, and observed
that the deceased had received a dreadful blow WI
the left rye; it was black aunt 'soulless.
Several oilier witnesses were exa ttt i l sed hut their
evidence merely corroborated the former statements.
Mr. Jobs. Hargraves, • Surgeon. confined as a
Prisoner, stated he was summoned a few minutes
hefore mite o'clock to *dead, at the request of his
(the deceased'.) daughter; lie fusingl him his a stale
of iniensibiloty ;.ono of his eyes was black and
much 'swollen. "•Tke opened a vein in his arm
which bled freely, and ordered hot water for his
feet. Witness saw him frequently, and rendered
every aveistance possible. He also observed all the
eymptionis must have been produced from the blow
on the 1,11 rye, the same bring closed as if frioni a
violent blow of the fist. On the following morn-
ing the deceseed appetites] to be getting worse,
and further assistance was resorted to, when Mi.
A outermost mil a Gentleman belonging to St.
Bartholomew's Hospiul came and acquiesced in the
ianrasis that had been pi eviously adopted. He ap-
peered ou be in a very bad state all the time, and
grorlually sunk till lie expired on Muinfoy morning.
After his demist the head was opened, mil
there was about three ounces of coagulated
blood ass the left lobe of the brain. The blood
lay precisely on the left temple of the eye that
had been injured. His °initials& wus, that (-vernal
injury produced the effect* described. Witness
conceived the hurt could nut proceed from a fall,
but more likely to have been dime by a blow. On
Sunday morning about ten o'clock, whilst witness
was with the deceased, a shod stoutish 111/11 came
tutu the MOM ; he appeared to be iss greet anxiety,
asked how the moon was, and on any describing lii•
dangerous situation, and that I 1111011h1 not like to
be the pension also caused it, Daly then replied toe
was that person, slid was. rety sorry for it.
Mr. Pliny eliihrt4l-de Is Garde, house surgeon
to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, was dies, exosinintd,
and elercritied the syinpt ouster which the de-
ceiwesl laboured. Witness said that the coagulated
blood and cosicassion of the brain, was the cause
of Ins droll, produced by external violence. The
left eye was swollen and very much discoloured.

said it woks fur them to cuoisider and deteriliiile a lie.
itile deceased came to his death through the act s.f
Daly, if such was their opinion they would then
declare the extent of his guilt--seither murder ur
manslaughter.
Strangers were then ordered to leave the room
to await the decision ul the Jury, who after deli-
berating fur half an hour, teturned at I I o'clock
a verdict of—Wilfsti Murder against Joists Daly.
