FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PAnts, Nov. I.—Yesterday, before Mass, the
King gave a private audience to the Chevalier
?Gamier., Prefect of La Crease. After transact-
'ing business with Count Corbiere and Count
Villele in succession, his Majesty, at two o'clock,
:took a •promenade on the outer Boulevards.
We have received accounts from Verona, dated
-the 25th October. Nothing has yet transpired
-of the deliberations of the Congress. • His Ex-
, c'ellency the Viscount de Montmorency does not
appear to have had any intention of leaving. V-
erona in the beginning of Noverrrher.—(L'Etoile).
Strange reports are circulating relative to the
Congress. For these three days- past, the return
of the Emperor of Russia to his empire before-
-the period agreed upon has been much talked of.
`To-day a Journal, the good intentions of which
-.are not doubtful (the- Gazette de France), gives
letter from Vienna, dated. the 21st, which.
says

"his Majesty the Emperor of Austria will return 'to his
..capital sooner than Was expected ; and the affairs which were
to form subjects of deliberation for the Congitss of Verona will
be terminated at Vienna by the Ministers now assembled in
'ltaly. The cause of this sudden change is not exactly known,
" Several remarkable arrests are reported
.to have taken place
at Verona, Padua, and Venice.

" The greatest vigilance has been recommended with respect
to travellers, and several places are mentioned which they are

not permitted to enter."

Letters from Verona, dated the ebth (as stated
above) do not, however, speak of the removal of
the Congress, which; if it do take place, will cer-
tainly have for its motive solely considerations of
political fitness.—(Journal des Debuts.)

The Gazette de France. announces that a fire
bad broken out at Vienna, in the cellars of the
house occupied by the Chief War Commissary,
'Which was got under with great difficulty, but
not before large magazines of ammunition had
been reduced to ashes.

The Ministerial Journal, Espectador, states
-that the intelligence brought by. this courier
is favourable, and says" General Espana, who
:was at Vienna as the Emissary of the Re-
gency of Urgel, had not been received : a
personage who had arrived at Vienna, and
:..vho is one of those most likely to have the
chief influence in the Congress, gave the most
flattering hopes with respect to Spain, and testi-
fied much interest for thatnation."

The discussion of the decree presented to the
Cortes on the 22d was continued on the 24th;
when all the articles, to the eleventh inclusive,
were adopted, except the 9th, which was rejected ;
but; propositions we're afterwards made by dif-
ferent Deputies to renew the article in a modified
shape.

An extraordinary courier has brought news
from Madrid up to the 25th. The Duke of
Castro Torrenus, Captain of the liallibardiers,
on the 7th of July, and who had been sent to
quarters at Valencia, has been conducted to
Madrid, and put in the same prison with the
other _accused persons. The Duchess followed
him to ,Madrid. Brigadier Peron, who at the
same, epoch commanded the Ist regiment of
Guards, has also been sent to Madrid. General
14Jorillo, who had escaped from his country house
at the moment that persons came to arrest him,
was seized on the 18th at Larza, three leagues
from the frontiers of Portugal. It is said that
he was recognised by an inhabitant of the vil-
Jage who had served under him in the war of
independence. The Alcalde arrested him be-
cause he• had no passport. It is said Govern-
ment has sent him a passport to come to Madrid.
The opening of the Society Landaburienne, so
named from a Lieutenant of the Guards, who
perished in the beginning of July, under the
Presidency of the Deputy, Romero Alpuentes,
took place on the 25th, in the evening.
Salveberez and Garces, two factious Chiefs,
had been tried at Pampeluna, and sentenced to
death. They were executed there on the 22d.
It is asserted that Alexander O'Donnel, Co-
lonel of the Imperial Alexander regiment, is to
take the command of the sth district in place of
Espinosa, so that if Charles O'Donnel commands
the Royalists in the 'same province, as is said,
the two brothers will be obliged to fight one
against the other. _ _ _

The elevation of the Journalist, San Miguel,
to the post of a Minister, has roused the ambi
tion of the:Editors of the Zurriago and of. the
Tercerola. Displeased, however, with their for-
mer coadjutor, they do not spare him in their
writings. The Editor of the Tercerola_has been
denounced to the Alcalde, at the requisition of
San Miguel'ond the affair has been sent for trial.
We have not yet received the details, as was
expected, of the destitution of the Municipality
of Parnpeluna. The gates of the town are shut,
to secure. some emissaries who had entered with
improper intentions.

It is confirmed that 'Estella has been surprised
,by the insurgents, who, after offering a capitula-
tion to about 100 soldiers, afterwards inhumanly
massacred them.

Colonel Asura, recently arrived at Tolosa,
says that Gurrea, a Constitutional 'Chief has ad-
vanced on 'Lerida with 5,000 men, and that
,Zarco del Valle had left 3,000 men on the fron-
tiers of Catalonia, to prevent the return of the
.factious into Navarre.

From Tolosa, a column composed of 100 men
Of the regiment Espagna, and of national militia,
'was sent to Villafratica to make head against 800
insurgents arrived on the 18th at Ataun. It is
believed these are the band that attacked Estella.

A Portuguese General; who was coming to
take refuge in France, has been arrested at Vit-
toria, and assassinated by the Constitutionalists.
--(Quolidienne.)
La Ruche d'Aquitaine announces that Lieut.-
General Count Donselot, Governor of Martinicfue,
~bas established a Cour Prevotal ,ia that Island,
by an ordinance dated August 12th, in order to
put a stop to,poisoningi which have been com-
mitted in several places.

The Tribunal of Correctional Police at Mar-
,seilles has decided that the right of carrying arms
:belongs to every Frenchman who is not expressly.
deprived of it by the law ; that the right to hunt

and shoot is inherent in property, and that every
land-owner may hunt, "or allow hunting in his
fields, both open and inclosed, during the seasons
when it is not prohibited ; finally that carrying
arms without permission is not a crime, unless
shooting or hunting actually takes place. • This
law agrees with that of the Cour Royale of Aix.
Nit's, OCT. 31.—We have just received a
-letter from Saumur, dated the 27th inst., which
gives the following details respecting the at-
tempted assassination of Lieutenant Wolfel, who
arrested General Berton : .
" Yesterday M. Wolfel was on the visiting service (a new
duty, which is performed by the officers in garrison, who, at
nightfall, in succession, have to visit the town-gates, military
hospital, &c.) About half-past nine o'clock, M. Wolfel, on
his way to the hospital, observed several individuals, who ap-
peared to be following him : without suspecting them of any
evil design, he passed on to return to the guard-house, by the
, rue St. Nicholas and the Square. Arrived there, he thought
he recognised near him one of the individuals whom he had
previously remarked.; but, without further occupying his at-
tention about this circumstance, he turned' down a narrow
street. It appears that the assassin, who had all this time vi-
gilantly watched the steps of M. Wolfel, now went on, and
concealed himself behind a large post, at the left corner of the
street, near the residence of the Commandant, 31. Leman.
—At the moment that 31. Wolfel was about to turn the corner,
the assassin extended his arm and stabbed him with a poniard,
at the same time calling him a scoundrel! M. WOlfel stag-
gered and fell against the wall. Observing the man making
off, he did not. lose his energy, but vainly endeavoured to
pursue the murderer, who soon got out of sight. He then re-
turned to have the wound dressed. His wound. is not danger-
ous, which luckily is owing to the buckle of his sword-belt,
which was directly over the left breast, in which he received
the stab.,-This morning the King's Procureur went to the
barracks, accompanied by all the police, the gendarmerie, and
the several officer's. M. Wolfel did not recognise the features
of the assassin, but he appeared to him to be well dressed.
His footsteps have been tracked near the forge, and their di-
mentions taken.—M. Wolfel is better to-day, though suffering
much."—(Journal des Debuts.)
The Quotidienne contains more details of the attempt to as-
sassinate Sub-Lieutenant Wolfel, and they rather differ from
those it gave,veaterday. For example, instead of a great-coat,
this officer hailhaila mantle, as stated by the Gazette. The
weapon, which it also said had onlY penetrated a few lines, having
been stopped by the thickness of the clothing, is now said to
have entered an inch and a half into the flesh, although the
buckle of the belt, the cloak, and the coat had contributed to
stop the blow. The judicial inquiries will soon put the public
in a condition to know what is correct in the account given by
the Quotidienne, and by the other Journals.—( Le Courier
Franais, N0v.1.)

It was yesterday announced that it had been resclved, as
basis, at Vienna, that his Majesty the King of Spain shall he,
re-established in all his rights. the means, it is said, will be
discussed at Verona. The first conference has taken place be-
tween the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the four powers form-
ing. the Holy Alliance. Of the foreign plenipotentiaries, the
Duke of Wellington was the only one admitted.—(Le Drapeau
Blanc.)

Most of the journals have announced the departure of M. the
Baron de Vitiolles for ycrona.. 'We would gladly have pre-
ferred to confirm this announcement; but Verona is not his
destination.—(ldenz.)
M. Benjamin Constant, and the Editors of the fcur Liberal
Journals, viz, Courier Francciis, Constitutionnel, Pilote, and
the Journal du Conimerce, appeared to-day before the Tribunal
of Correctional Police, chirged, the former with having com-
posed, and the others with having published, a letter respect-
ing the deposition of M. le Carrere, Sub-Prefect at Saumur,
before the Assize Court of Poitiers. The said letter is de-
nounced as containing insults against a public functionary, for
having duly discharged his duty ; and against a witness, in con-
sequence of the tenour of his testimony.
111. B. Constant occupied a seat reserved for him between the
Tribunal and the Advocates' bench. On being called upon to
declare his name, profession, &c., he replied—" I declare that
I do not admit the competence of this Tribunal to try me, be-
cause I have appealed against the decree of the Chamber of
Council, by virtue of which I am thus cited before the Correc-
tional Police. But, in order to evince my respect for the laws,
and for authority, although incompetent, I am ready to answer
you."

Some objections to the competency of the Court were also
made by the Counsel for the Editors of the Journals.

After- a short deliberation, the Court deferred the suit to 'a
future day, irk order to take into consideration these several
pleas._ - - - -

M. Benjamin Constant has received another summons to ap-
pear next week, to answer to an indictment founded upon his
letter to M. Mangin, Procureur-General. attached to the Royal
Court of Poitiers.
