FOR THE SUN.

A PROPOSAL FOR THE Er or AGRICULTe
DisTzEss.—Let twenty millions sterling be lent
without interest to the Landholders for three
years on mortgage on the land, whether entailed
or otherwise, so that the sum lent should not ex-
ceed one-sixth the value of the landed property.
The landlords can then afford to remit one-
third, or more, of the rents to their tenants, the
characters of whom they know; the Lords Lieu-
tenants of the County, High Sheriffs, and Grand
Juries, can be assembled, and they can have the
assistance of any Bankers, for the distribution of
the sums, as every Landholder will mention in
writing, signed, and addressed to the Lord Lieu-
tenant, what sum each is in want of. Here will
be a sufficient security to Government, and the loss
to the public, at 5 per cent., will be three millions
only, a mere trifle for the extent of good so gene-
rally diffused. The late Right Hon. Mr. WiNconAm
said in the House of Commons during the late
war, " That a pitiful Five or Six Millions were
" not worth a thought." Being now peace, is
it the inverse of this saying ? Suppose the
following alteration in the Corn Laws, that
the quantity of Foreign Corn imported should be
limited to Forty Thousand quarters or less,
of each species of grain a month, with a
duty of 3s. Gd. a bushel on foreign Wheat
2s. Gd. a bushel on Barley ; and 9.5. a bushel
on Oats. This will check the influx of Grain,
to the injury of the British Farmer, and at the
same time prevent the ruin, perhaps, of specu-
lators in Corn.

SOLEM QUIS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT ?

LONDON,
,cATURDAY, MARCH 16, 1822.

We subjoin extracts from the Paris Papers of
Wednesday which arrived this morning. No
fresh disturbances have taken place in the capital;
but the 'Missionaries are still interrupted in their
exercises, and numerous patroles of cavalry are
found necessary to traverse the streets. The
affair of the property left by BUONAPARTE in tl.e
hands of M. LAFITTE, has been determined by
the Tribunal of First Instance. The Court have
deckled acrainst the validity of the will, and dis'
missed the plea of the plaintiffs, with costs.
The death of Ar.i PAcnA is confirmed, by ac,-
counts from Vienna. It is stated that Aix bad
fallen a sacrifice to the resentment of his own
troops, and that his head had been sent by then')
to CHOURSCHILD PACHA, who immediately for.
warded it to Constantinople.. Its arrival in the
Ottoman capital had excited such lively trans-
ports of joy, and raised the fanaticism of the
Turks to so great a height, that the GrIANn
VIZIER was expected to march immediately, wits;
the army assembled atAdrianople, to the Danube.
We think it probable,feom the Turkish character,
that the violent excitation and blind conf•,dence in-
spired by this event, may have determined the
Porte to reject in lobo the propositions of Russia,
and to direct this hostile movement. Even the
best informed and most sensible MussulmanS
believe in the doctrine of fatalism, and will re-
gard the tragical catastrophe of Am as a proof
of the will of Destiny in favour of the Ottoman
Empire. The desire for War, on the part of the
Army, has revived with redoubled fury since
the fall of Au, so that it has been difficult to pre'
vent their marching instantly against the Russians•

TRIBUNAL or THE FIRST INSTANCE, DEPARTMENT

AFFAIR OF THE WILL OF BUONAPARTE.
The sentence passed by the Tribunal in this affair was pro-
nounced yesterday, the lt2th March, in a public sitting.
The following, as far as our memory could retain them, were
the reasons on which it was founded :-
44 With respect to the character of Mandataircs (Attorneys)
taken by Messrs. Month°lon, Bertrand, &c. ;
" Considering that the letter of Buonaparte, of 25th Aprilit
1821, cannot avail as an holograph testament (all written with
