(From the French Papers of Wednesday.)
The Moniteur of this morning contains a royal
ordinance, by which the following electoral colleges
of arrondissement are convoked for the 6th of No-
vember, each to elect a Deputy :—Haute Garonne,
Ist arrondissement at Toulouse; 4th arrondissement,
at Monet. Loire Inferidure, 4th arrondissement, at
Savenay. Tarn, Ist arrondissement, at Alhy; 2d
ditto, at Castres. Vaucluse, 2d arrondissement, at
Carpentraa. Cotes du Nord, at St. Brienne. He-
rault, at Montpellier. Isere, at Grenoble. Loire
Inferieure, at Nantes. Hautes Pyrennees, at Nantes;
and Vaucleuse, at Avignon. All these vacancies,
except one, have been occasioned by the refusal of
Deputies to take the oath to the new Government.
By a second ordinance, the departmental colleges of
the Haute Garonne, the Mayence, and the Tarn,
are convoked for the 28th of October, at Toulouse,
Laval, and Alby, each to elect two Deputies, in the
MOW of others who have resigned, or who have
.; omitted to take the oath within the time prescribed
by law. By a third ordinance the King, desirous of
signalizing his accession to the throne by acts of
clemency, grants full and entire amnesty for all of.
fences of simple police committed anterior to the
27th of July, 1830., All condemnations in conse-
quence will cease to have effect, and prosecutions
commenced will be abandoned. This measure is to
be executed without prejudice to private interests,
And the Treasury will'not be bound to restore costs
or fines already recovered. A fourth ordinance fills
tip the numerous places of public functionaries in the
administrative and judicial departments, become vie-
cant by their refusal or omission to take the oath
within the term prescribed. Two other ordinances
appoint a Juge de Paix and several Sub-Prefects.
The Courier Francais and several other Journals
of this morning, express strong doubts of the ex.
istence of the note relative to Belgium, for which
the Tempt of yesterday pledged itself.
The German Papers state that there have re-
cently been some disturbances at Gera, in the prin-
cipality of Reuss, the cause of which is unknown.
The Prince of Reuss Ebersdorf having appeared in
the streets, and promised the abolition of several
abuses, he succeeded in appeasing the people for the
moment. Several officers under Government, ob-
noxious to the people, have been dismissed. The
troops which were at Ebersdorf marched on the
17th instant for Gera. The Nitremberg Corre-
spondent has intelligence from Thuringia of the 20th
instant, from which it appears that the spirit of in-
surrection has spread from Altenburg and Gera to
the Grand Duchy of Saxe Weimar; on the 18th
and 10th several malcontents excited a riot at Jena,
by burning the house of a functionary, on the ground
that he was guilty of mismanagement in the admi-
nistration of the town. A commission has been
sent to Jena by the Government, to re-establish
order, and receive the complaints against grievances
which might be made.
Yesterday afternoon the post of the National
Guards at the Mairie, rue de Canivet, seized a large
package of uniforms, and two chests filled with car-
tridges, which were carried to the Prefecture of
Police. They came from Versailles by an artillery
waggon, and were addressed to an ex-Royal Guard.
The Chambre du Commerce at Havre has just
sent to the Minister of the Finances a protest against
the decision lately formed relative to St. Domingo
coffee belonging to the Government of Hayti.

THE BENEVOLENT WIDOW.

There was a very benevolent widow living in
Plymouth, in respectable circumstances, who fre-
quentlycame to the theatre, and was kind enough
to inquire into the private situations of various
members of the company. Among others she
asked about Prigtnore, mid was told that he had
but a small salary and made a very poor appear-
ance. Hearing this, she remembered that she
had a pair of her late husband'a indispensables
in the house, which she resolved to offer him.
A servant was accordingly despatched to the ob-
ject of her charity, who meeting one of the
actors, and partly disclosing her business, he
went in search of Prigmore, and finding him ex-
claimed, " Prigmore, my boy, here's your fortune
made at last ; here's a rich widow in the town has
fallen in love with you, and wants to see you."
Prigmore, not suspecting his roguery, was
led.to the servant, in a state of bewildered rap-
ture, and by the latter was informed that the
widow would be glad to see him any morning it
was convenient. He appointed the following,
and went home to his lodgings to indulge in a
day-dream of golden independence. His friend
in the mean tune, whispered the truth through
the green-room, where there were two or three
s others' wicked enough to join in the conspiracy,
by walking to Prigmore's house to tender their
congratulations. Prigmore, as will be supposed,
passed a sleepless night, and spent an extra hour
at his toilette the next morning, in adorning him-
self with a clean chin and neckcloth.
He then sallied forth, and, on reaching the
widow's was shewn into her parlour, where, cast-
ing his eyes around on the substantial sufficiency
of its furniture, he began to felicitate himself on
the aspect of his future home.
The lady at length appeared : she was upon
the verge of forty ; a very fashionable age at that
time, which resting upon the shoulders of a
very comely-looking woman, seemed to ha in
character with her very comfortable dwelling.
Prigmore's satisfaction and her benevolence ope-
rated equally in producing some confusion ; at
length a conversation commenced. She ac-
quainted him that she had heard his situation
was not as agreeable as he could wish—that his
income was a confined one ; she was therefore
desirous to do lihn all the service that lay in her
power. Prigmore, considering this an express
declaration of her affection, was about to throw
himself at her feet, when she suddenly sum•
moned the servant and exclaimed, " Rachel,
bring the breeches 1"
These words astounded him, and he stared in
her face like a block of marble ; the widow, as
suspicionless as himself of the hoax, could not
interpret his wonder ; but on receiving the habi-
liments, folded them carefully up, and remarking
that they were as good as new, (her Lusbancl
having caught his fatal cold in them the first
time he put them on,) begged Prigmore's ac-
ceptance of the same.
" _And was it for this you wanted me, Ma-
dam e" exclaimed Prigmore, rising from his
chair ; his tone and countenance bespeaking a
mixture of surprise and disappointment.—" Yes,
Sir." He put on his hat, and walked to the
door in silent, indignation. The good woman,
as much astonished as himself, followed him and
said, " Won't you take the breed Sir ?"
" No, Madam," he i pausing" re died,
at the
door to make some bitter remark.
