We subjoin the contents of the French Papers
respecting the circumstances preceding,attending,
and following the death of the late MONARCH. It
appears from the Constitutionnel, that when the
Ministers waited upon the new KING to know
his pleasure, he addressed them in the following
words :----" Continue your services—my first mo-
ments have been devoted to grief ; afterward I
shall give myself up entirely to my duties." The
private Correspondent of a respectable Morning
Paper says, that .only M. de Vtr,r,tr.c was ad-
mitted, but perhaps a different period was referred
to in the letter. It is, however, probable that
M. do VILLELE will chiefly obtain the confidence
of the new MONAUCH, and that there will be
little alteration in the conduct of the Govern-
ment. The following are the Extracts from the
French Journals :----

The terrible catastrophe which the ardent

only lament the father.

he had borne misfortune. Never did a Monarch

nothing more remained to be done for our France,

this afflicted capital. We pray, we weep, in the
secresy of our hearts. To-morrow our temples

( From the Constitutionnel.)

PARIS, 17.—The Court is to go Into
mourning for seven mouths, to' be divided into
three epochs, the first of three months, the se.
cond of two months, and the third of two months.
Yesterday, at six o'clock, the Lieutenant.
General, commanding the Ist division, and Count
Wall, Commandant of Paris, visited the diffe-
rent barracks of the garrison. At their arrival,
the troops wore placed under arms. The Count
de Coward said, 6( Soldiers, his Majesty Louis
XVIII. has just closed his glorious life. The
King has ordered public prayers. It is his Ma-
jesty Charles the Xth's intention that the
troops be present. Your standards, drums, and
trumpets, are to be covered with black crape;
the officers are to wear black crape on their
arms, and on their swords, till further orders.
Soldiers, ho added, with a loud but tremulous
voice, after having given your tears for him,
whom it has pleased God to take to him.
self, let us give our hearts, and our arms, and
our blolid, if necessary, for his Majesty Charles
X." These words were answered by unanimous
cries of " Vivo le Itoi ;" (6 Vive Charles X."

fect of the Seine, the Prefect of Police, the Mu-
nicipal Bodies, the Military Bodies, the National
Guard, and the French Academy.
The following is the Speech of the King to the
Peers and the Deputies
" My heart is too deeply affected to allow me to express the
sentiments which I feel; but I should he unworthy of trim who
has left me such great examples, if, yielding too much to my
grief, I did not preserve fortitude enough to fulfil the duties
which are imposed on me. I was a Brother—now I ant a
King; and this title of itself pointy out the conduct I ought to
observe.

" I have promised as a subject to maintain the Charter and
the institutions which we owe to the Sovereign. of whom
Heaven has just deprived us; now that the right of my birth
has made the power fall Into my hands, I will employ it en-
tirely in consolidating for the happiness of my people, the
great act which I have promised to maintain.
44 111 y confidence in my subjects, is entire; and I am fully
certain that I shall find in them the same sentiments with re-
spect to me.

" I must add, Gentlemen, that conformably to the institu-
tions of the King whom we deplore, I shall convoke the Chem-
bars at the end of December.'
We have Ault yet received the speech made by
his Majesty to the Diplomatic Body. It pro-
duced the most profound impression.
The speech addressed to the King by th© Aca-
demy, complimenting him on his/ accession, ex-
presses its confidence in the protection of his
Majesty, who has always shown himself a patron
of French literature. The King's reply was as
follows :
" GE KTLEMEN-4 have lost an affectionate brother, Prance
a wise and enlightened monarch, science and literature a pro-
tector, who has cultivated them from his most tender years,
and with panic:Outs/a. I shall imitate them, not with the
same talent, but with the same zeal ; I answer for it, and I de:-
pend.,en the Actidetny to second me'
Preparations are making for embalming the
King's body. 'The operation will take two days;
after this the body of his Majesty will lie in state
in the saloon of the Throne.

The following is an extract.from the Journal
des Dobai*, giving an account of the last moments
of the late KING
"At half-past nine on Wednesday, the King began to ex-
perience the approaches of that .crisis which was to terminate
his life in a fete hours. He afterwards enjoyed -a little trail.
onillity, .His recollection, which had never entirely deserted
him, seemed to return. At midnight those prognostics of con..
aviation and hope had disappeared. The august patient ex e.
rienced then an attack, the violence of which inspired the able
physicians by whom he was surrounded with the fear that the
malady would soon triumph over the resources of their art, and
that nature was reedy to succumb. At this instant, the apart.
ment was filled with all the members of the Royal Family,
Messages were sent to their Royal Highnesses <the Dukes of
Orleans and Bourbon saw well as to the Chancellor and Prince
Talleyrand, the Archbishop of Paris, the Ministers, the Grand
Referendary, the Secretary, Archive Keeper of the Chamber of
Peers, and, in fine, to all whose dignity or functions rendered
their 'presence necessary on the occasion.
" The Prefect of the. Seine and the Prefect of Police having
been apprised of the state of things, hastened likewise to the
Palace. .A calther moment succeeded to this terrible crisis.
44 We shall not attempt to pourtray the anxiety which appear.
ed on every countenance, mingled with some feeble rays of hope.
Nothing could be compared to the state of the Princes and

Princesses of the Royal Family, surrounding this bed of death.
At a quarter before four o'clock, the signs which precede death
manifested themselves. In a feiv minutes the mournful cry was
raised, the King is dead. The chamber re-echoed with sobbings.
Charles X, the Dauphin, the Dauphin, and afterwards all the
Royal Family, precipitated themselvei, on the lifeless body,
pressed those ,hands which were cold in death, and which
could make no return to the press of tenderness and love. The
fatal cry was repeated in the vast apartments of the Palace,
pierced the walls, and reached the ears of the faithful guard,
who, and and silent, waited with impatient sorrow for news
which was either to comfort them, or to apprise them, not that
they had new duties to fulfil, or a new title to invoke, but a new
Monarch to salute. At six o'clock the King set out to St.
Cloud with all the Royal Family. At ten o'clock the doors of
the royal apartments were thrown open. An immense crowd
continued to enter till six in the evening, to view the features of
him who was their father, and which death had but slightly
changed. His Majesty was stretched on the bed whereon he
died. The sign of redemption (the cross) was in his hands.
The ecclesiastics of the chapel royal prayed round the body,
funeral torches lighted this scene of mourning, every one in
passing threw holy water on the body, near which were seated
the Great Officers of the Crown, the Gentlemen of the Cham-
ber, and the superior Officers of the Guards. The Royal
Guard keep guard respectfully round the Royal remains of llis
Majesty."

By the following extracts from Brussels
Papers, which. we received late last night, it
would appear that Lord STRANGFOItD has fruit-
lessly demanded the evacuation of the Principa-
lities of Moldavia and Wallachia, no answer having
been returned to his Note
A tiasimna, SErr. 10.—Lord Strangford has just renewed
his efforts to induce the l)ivan to give at length positive orders
for the evacuation of the Principalities. He has, to this end,
transmitted to the Reis Effendi a very urgent note, in which he
manifests the dissatisfaction of the Russian Cabinet, at seeing
that the Ottoman Government has not yet taken any steps to
fulfil its promises relative to Wallachia. He chews how weak
the reasons are which the Porte alleges for delaying indefinitely
the evacuation of Moldavia. The Reis Effendi, it seems, not
having been authorised to answer this note, the British Am.
bassador has demanded and obtained audiences of that Minister
and of the Grand Visier.

We can only conjecture what passed at these conferences ;
but it is known, that the opinion of a Diplomatic Character in
Pera is, that Lord Strangford was made sensible, that the
Grand Visier and the Reis-Effendi were sincere, but that their
bands were tied on account of the intrigues of a numerous party
which aims at their overthrow. This party, which has gained
ground in the Divan has succeeded in- causing the departure of
the troops for the Principalities to be considered as contrary to
the interests of the Porte. This is the cause of the continual
tergiversations of the Turkish Ministers in the negociation so
long carried on by the Ministers of England and Austria, acting
as mediators in the differences between Turkey and Russia.
By the Sultan's orders, some troops from various Govern-
ments in Asia have been sent to join the Captain Pacha, but
not a vessel could be sent to reinforce his fleet, which has suf-
fered some losses in the late affairs which took place near Myti_
lene.

Muss Eta, SP:PT. 16.-A letter from Paris of the I.lth says :
" The expedition for St. Domingo has just sailed from Brest.
It is not to attack by force, but to blockade the ports of the
island."

The visit of Mr. CANNING to Ireland, though
stated by the Honourable Gentleman himself as
chiefly intended for a relaxation from the im-
portant duties of his high station, cannot but be
attended with advantage to that country. A
more shrewd, acute, and enlightened Politician,
the age does not supply. In his domestic inter-
course with the LORD LIEUTENANT the condition
of Ireland cannot fail to be a topic of interesting
discussion with both parties. The very circumstance
that Mr. CANNING declines those honours to which
his eminent talents and high attainments so proper-
ly entitle him, may be considered as a proof that
he prefers the opportunity of entering into a com-
munication with the Marquis WELLcsr,cy upon
subjects of national importance to all ceremo-
nious parade. It must be highly gratifying to

Ireland to see a native of that country, in the
person of a gentleman so illustrious for talents
and justly possessing the confidence of the Em-
pire as well as of his Sovereign, and they will
of course feel mortified that they cannot display
all those public testimonies of respect and esteem
which his character and services so well deserve.
the people of Ireland may console them.
It
selvesl with the conviction that their welfare is
dear to his heart, and that he will be zealous in
his endeavours to promote it.

We hear from Palma, in the island of Mu-
jorca, that on the 12th of August a number of persons were
arrested by the Royalist Volunteers, on account .of a , con-
spiracy. One of the accused, named Vales' endeavoured
to hang himself on the night of the 14th or 15th, but was
discovered and restored to life. lie then exclaimed, " 111 y
God, you do not desire the death of a sinner, but that he should
turn from his wickedness and live." Re was immediately con.
fessed, and then gave information where a book would be found,
containing the names of all the Freemasons of the Balearic
islands. This book, and a box full of decorations and instruments,
lists, diplomas, forms ofoaths, &c. were found, as well as plans
for a masonic society. The same papers also contain the follow.
ing tragical affair s—Francis Reneda was sent to prison as one of
the suspected persons. An officerhaving observed that he had
sonic communication with a person outside the prison, had his
apartments closely inspected, and found there an enigmatical
letter, an ink.stand, and four razors. Some few-minutes after,
on his return, the officer observed there was no light in Iteneda's
apartinant:, and then found that he was lying on the ground,
'weltering in his blood. By his side lay a penknife, and "lie Was
giving up -his last breath. Succour was obtained, and his life
preserved for two days and 15 hours. Before dying he con.
fessed that he had put an end to himself by means of a-pen-
knife which he had carefirlly concealed.--( Courier Francais. )
I)ARAMSTADT, SEPT. 10.—We have authentic
information that a commercial treaty has been concluded, with-
' in these few days, between the Grand' Duchies of Baden and

The Marshals of France Were admitted to P9l
