LONDON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 25.
Three o'clock, p.m.
The Paris. Papers of Friday arrived last night.—
The Motudeur contains an Ordinance, dated the 13th
instant, ordering the forming of two corps of Ma-

rines foe-four ships of the line and frigates, the first
to be organised at Brest, and the second at Tvulon. '
The preparations muting by the French Cabinet, by
sea and hod, show its hostile feeling towards Spain,
aaa the infatuation of the Ultras, who are very likely
to involve France in a war, if there be not a speedy
change of Minibters, and a more tranquil system of
rlicy adopted by the Govern. 'Kent. The Gacite
,de France contains a letter from Urgel of the 19th,
which is a tissue of misrepresentations and absurd

conclusions in favour of the Rebels. The flight of
the Mock Regency to Puycerda, it asserts, will dis-
concert the plans of Mina, though it was well

known that his object was to drive them from Ur-
gel, the focus of treason; front whence they 'kept up
constant communication with the bigots of France.—

The Monied Market on Saturday last was agitated
with rumours, which were instantly circulated, after
the arrival.of expresser from France. It was asserted
that the King of France was suddenly taken ill, and
.that the Marshals of France were instantly sum-
moned to attend at the Tuileries. Before this report
.was contradicted, one Broker sold Stock to the
amount of 700,0001. Consols. as the rumour received
credit from _the circumstance of the French Funds
having fallen two per cent. A subsequent express
i.rrivcil, which left Paris on Friday morning, quoting
the reales at 87f. GOc being a slight advance on the
tr:ce of Thursday. The chief circumstance that
trrasioned the depression of the French Funds was
a Council held at the house of the Minister at War on
Thursday, where three officers of rank, one of whom

WAS Gen.Claparcde, had received appointments, and
mere to proceed accordingly without delay to the
Army of Observation. A letter from Verona states,
that Congress will give a death blow to the hopes
of the war party in France, but yet the Ultras
seemed determined on hostilities, while their adver-
saries remain quiet, and view all their movements
with satisfaction, as likely to involve the restless
bigots in ruin, and eitinguish fur ever their influ-
ence in France, which must be constantly agitated,
so lung as they have ascendancy.

On Saturday last, his Majesty left town, in his
travelling carriage, fur Brighton.
Captain Franklin, the intrepid traveller to the
Coppermine River, on the northern shores of Ame-
rica, is promoted to the rank of Post Captain.
Admiral Sir Charles Hamilton, Governor of New-
foundland, is arrived in town, and has had seve-
ral interviews with Ministers on the affsirs of that
island.
Ilse NEW NISH BISHOP.—His Majesty has been
pleased to appointed the Rev. J. J. Jehb, D.D,
Archdeacon of k;mly, to the vacant Bishopric.
The ancient vessel lately found in the channel of
the river Bother has been cut asunder, iu order to
be conveyed on two tugs, drawn by 20 horses, by
way of HAtekhurst, Lamberhurst, and Tonbridge,
to the Nletrup.,L4.
On Monday evening, the Pilot, Lieut. Williams,
arrived at Portsmouth from the Cape of Good Hope.
Ilte left on the 14th of September. The condition
of the English emigrants located on the frontiers of
the Cape was much improving. During two sea-
sons they had entirely depended upon the Govern-
ment rations, but nine months of rain having
succeeded to the lung drought, there was every pros-
pect in the present season of all the crops of their
fertile land coming to perfection, and in great abun-
dance.

A contract was taken on Thursday last to victual
the convicts at Sheerne►s and Woolwich, at 341 a
titan per day ; the provisions to consist of good ux
beef, bread, small beer, cheese, meal, &c. The con-
tractor is an opulent butcher at Rochester.
EjECUTION.—This morning, at eight o'clock,
John Hollatid and William King, convicted at the
list September sessions of an unnatural oflimce, were
executed at the; qa Miley, in the presence of a
large concourse' spitctators. The unhappy men
appeared truly persistent, and conducted themselves
with becoming fortitude.
