The Journal des Debuts,. contains an Epitome
of Soult's'JernOr'ial, which we must postpone OH
to-morrow.—A.. contemporary has well observed,
" it contains exactly what might have been
expected, great praise of his own patriotism, broad
assertions of his loyalty to the King, as long as
loyalty was-reasonable, and the illegal and un-
warrantable pretension, that in fighting the Usur-
pet-'s battles, he. only acted as a citizen and a sol-
dier, in obedience to the person who was at the
head of the Government. Few reasonable men can
doubt, that the person who was War Minister
Louis N.VIII. when Bnonaparte ,came from
1 to PArk, must have been a ti'iritoi' • })pt
when we see that same man made Maior-Genergby
• • :••;,.is,io,!
Ihe Usurper, we have a moral ccrtainty.opitivgnilt.
The strongest eh-cum-Stance in favour-of Soult, is,
doubtless, the letter which the Kirtg %raj' induced
to write to him-when he was removed-from office;
but to us this Circumstance is only another proof
a the deceptions which, at that-fatal moment,
were practised on his Majesty." •• :

The lengthened stay of the Allied Troops in the

accuqe4l,4ul not to stiffer theil—ileCision 'to lie in-
fluenced. by batted or by fear.
The Sitting was opened precisely at eleven
o'clock.

Lavalette was brought to the bar bet Ween two
Sub-officers of the Gendarnicrie. lie vas dressed in
black; wore the Grand Cordon and decorations of
the Legion of Honour—of the Reunion, and of the
It onCrawn, suspended from his buttou-hole.—lie-
was questioned as to his names and titles ; be an
swered, his name was Mary Charmant de Lawialette,
46 years of age, Grand Officer of the Legion of
Honour, Commander of the Order of Rennidn.
He was of no profession.

111. Heron de Villefoce, Foreman of the Jury,
na the other Jurors, were then solemnly sworn.

. The proceedings commenced by the reading of,
the. Order of the Chamber of Accusation, who had
sent him before the Court of Assize at Paris, 'as
accused of having, on the morning of the "oth
March, usurped the title arid the functions of the
Director-General of the Post for Letters ; of
having corresponded with 13uo►►aparte •before his,
arrival in Paris; and Of having thus made himself
an accomplice in the.crime Which had effected the.
overthrow of the Legitimate AnthpOty., and re
stored the, Usurper to thi Throne—a- crime 'pr0..;..-
'dried against by Articles -59,, 60, 86, and 87, of;
tl►e Penal Code." •

Other details were contained in.the act of acCu-
sation. The substance of them is—that on the
20th March, at seven in. the morning, Lavalette
went to, the Post-Office, accompanied by General
Sebastiani. On entering the Audienee Hall of
the Director-General, he said, 4‘' In the name of
the Emperor, I take possession of the Admini-
stration of the Post;" that Count Ferranti ap-,
pirating in the Hall to pass to his cabinet,
lette told him he might take away,his papers'; that
he had instantly sent couriers to 13nonaparte; that
had prevented Count Ferranti fronarepairing to Lille
to join the King : that be had afterwards exercised
the functions of Director,General, in re-uniting,
first, the Chiefs of Divisions, and afterwards the
Administrators of the Posts : that the same day he
gave. orders, first,, to stop the Joarnals—particn=
larly the Monileur which Contained the Proclama-
tion:of the King on his quitting Paris ; secondly,
to prevent the departure of letters of the Ministry,
and those of the Prefect of Paris ; and, thirdly,.
tore-establish couriers on the two routes to Lyons.
That by couriers set)r th, same day in tlifTerkut
directions, he published a. circular, Avhicti he had
signed, and of which the minute was in his hand-
writing, conceived in these terms :—" The .Etn-
peror will be at Paris in two hours, and perhaps
before. The greatest etahnsiasm is' displayed in
the Capital ; all is tranquil ; and, whatever may
be reported, there will be na 'civil tsar. Long
live. the Emperor !—Paris, March 20. :Halt,-past
Four."

In recapitulating the principal factt, the Ad-
vocate-General remarked .to the Jury that die
culpability of the accused consisted of two distinct
elements—the material fact of his invading those.
Functions which did .:not belong to Idm, and the
end which he proposed- to accomplish by the
temporary exercise of them. The fact' which
is already established, is but the means of cott•
firming the crime. In vain .has it been wished
to throw some doubt on the fact itself, when
it is known he has signed in the quality
of Director-General ; when ite has performed 'a
number of acts which necessarily suppose himio
be installed in that situation, it is impossible to
deny it to-day.

As to the intention which has preceded: and
accompanied the fact, it will he -slifficult. to find its
justification. This is, in.some sort the irivestiga-
tion of crime. In truth the accused did niit rake
into his hand the reins of the. Administration, but
to paralyse all the. efforts which might have serr-
ed.the cause of the King ; to prepare, as :it were,
the way for tire, advance-of to the capital
whom he hastened to salute as Emperor. • •

After the speech of the Advocate-General,
,anti
the calling over the names of the witnesses, to
make them retire from the audience, the Presi-.
dent commenced the interrogatory of the accused,
which waS reduced to. the following
Q. Did you- carry on a correspondence with
11!)nonaparte in the island of Ma.—A. No, Mon-
sieur. "

Q. You have, howeVer, avowed writing to him
in time month of November ?—A. No, Monsiem.;
I have not avowed; I have declared of myself,
and when 1 was under no obligation to do so,
that I had written to him to offer him. my good
wishes on the commencement of a new year.

But your compliments were a little early !---
A. I beg pardon, Mr. President, but the corim',

It
.SaelllS to be generally supposed that the
Treaty. of Peace will appear the. Gazette of
to-inoi row ;.blit. as the PRINCE REGENT is out of
town, and is not expected to return till to-morraw
night, and as it certainly will not be published till
it has received the ratification of his Royal-High-
ness, we do not join in this supposition-. As the
Treaty was, of course,' immediately submitted, to
file two Chambers in Frunce, it is probable that
We shall have it in the next French Papers.

No fmriher information :respecting_ the Terms
of the Treaty, beyond those which we have laid
before our Readers; have transpired. That it is
highly advantageous and honourable :to Great
Britain, is sufficient for our present gratification ;
and such details as arc new; we .have the pleasure
of being assured, are all such as will add to the
public satisfaction. Indeed, the prosptrous state
of Britain requires no illustratiOn. Our Govern-
'men( has no disasters to palliate, no dkagreqable;r:
to conceal. Our funds are in so flourishing' a state;
that instead of anticipating difficult- budgets,
the only.apprebension seems to be, that well as
we stand, the Country may encourage a 6elief too
sanguine, that we stand better; and therefore feel
disappointed at there'. bcirg'sorne Twenty

mystic interest.
