Extract of a letter from Blois, received Oct. 7:
1 dined with sonic Prussian Officers and a
brother in law of Prince BLUCHER'S Mr.
and they say in their defence, that the
French had totally impoverished their country by
their robberies when they visited Prussia with
BUONAPARTE. From -the highest to the lowest,
they (the Prussians) were obliged to deliver up
every ornament they had, and to take off their
necklaces and ear-rings, and give them up to the
Fre-eli soldiers. From that hour to this, to per-
petuate the remembrance of such ontrageodi op-
pression, al/ the ladies in Prussia wear 01-two-writs
mode of iron. He're Blois, their Commander
made a requisition of ten thousand yards of cloth,
&c. &c. and when the Prefect refused to comply
with his order, be put him under arrest, und'kept
him so for eight days."

PANTE, has obtained permission to join him, and
goes out in the Cormorant. He was married on
Wednesday last, on bawd the St. George, to a
French lady, who has been in this neighbourhood
for sonic time past, but who is not allo,ved to
' accompany him."
_ The temporary scarcity of corn at Naples and
in the provinces of that kingdom, is attributed to
the infamous scheme of the enemies of the legiti-
mate King, FERDINAND IV. These persons, with
a double view of enrif.hiiig themselves by the mi-
sery of the poor, and of causing a scarcity on the
return of the rightful Sovereign, which might
produce disorder and confusion favourable,to the
late Usurper, bought, it is said, vast quantities
of corn and sent it out of the kingdom of Naples.

IVINDSOR, OCT. B.—The weather proving re-
markably fine yesterday, the QUEEN, after attend-
ing her Council,.. accompanied by Princesses
ELIZABETH and MARY, took an airing in an open
carriage through Slough, on the Bath road,
This morning the Duke of YORK arrived at the
Castle to pay his respects to his Royal Mother.--
His Royal Highness remained but a short time.
ATTENr PT AT ROBBERY.—The depredations have
already commenced in the vicinity of the Metro-
polis, and are -likely to be attended with must se-
rious consequences as the season advances, unless
the most vigorous measures are adopted by the
Police. On Friday night, about ten o'clock, as
Mr. Moone, jun. of the Victualling Office, was
passing through the King's Road, towards Sloane-
street, he-was stopped by a stout fellow in a rough
great coat,with a bludgeon in his harntl, and using
horrid imprecations : he had an accomplice near
him. Mr. Moottc, with great presence -of mind,
put his hand in his bosom, as if to draw out a
pistol, and telling, him, if he ;did not desist he
would blow his brains out, the fellow made a sig-
nal 0, his accomplice, and they both immediately
ran off.
WILSON THE PEDESTRIAN.—Mr. WILLIAMS, in
a communication addressed to tbe Editor of The,

cite in it the resolutions of the Magistrates, 'and
then -says, k"l'he warrant thus proposed and-
covit.4 (for 1 did not see the draft) was sent in
the first place for my signature'; and findingahere-
in'the words several of the," instead of the
several Magistrates,' as standing in the-resolution,
and not thinking myself warranted in subscribing
to that which did not correspond with the resola-
lion, I altered it. so as.to make it correspond. by
striking out the words several or and .then sign-
ed and returaed it to Mr. BICKNELL, by the mes-
senger, for such other Magistrates as chose to
sign it.'- It was not afterwards in my possession,
and I should suppose that no man will be bold
enough to. contend, that I was not entitled to
make any alterations 1 thought proper, in a war!'
rant not then signed by any other_ Magistrate,
and that was to have my. signature. It imposed
no ties whatever upon any. other Magistrate."—
The reason Mr. ‘VILLIAsts agreed to the discharge
of the warrant, he states, was Mr. MASON'S de-
claration that he had had no view of the offence
which was the expressive cause of its issuing.
One of the Magistrates, who has rendered him-
•
self unpopular by his interfeience with regard to
WILSON, has been subjected to much annoyance
from the populace. Grjnumbers of persons, on
pasiingifiS'lmuse, knock at his door to inquire, if
they might have peintission to walk over the Heath

TUE TRAVELLER ABOUT PARIS.

(No. XVI,)

PARIS, OcTopilt 6.

A cirettnittance occurred, here a few ,nights
since, Mach Mil ef course be talked of 'in Lon-

thin, and may too have its chnsequences in Paris.
%ou have Probably heard of it by this time, but
the truth of the tale is thus the evening of
Catalani's first appearance at her-Theatre, Mon-
day last, the.lluke .of Wcllington went to give

her the advantage of his auspices. The know-
ledge, that he was to be present would draw a
crowd to aqv
riof the Theatres, The double
attraction of the first warrior, and, the first
singer of
.the world, of course gathered a nail,.
titude. As the most hOnoured place was na-
tttrally reserved for the Duke, 'he appeared about
the middle of the entertainment with a military
friend;.both in plain clothes,, and in the King's .
box. You know, thatin the-Pariian Theatres,
the Loge for Royalty is kept dres=ed, and nue
mingled with the receptacles for inferior amateur-
ship. His Graces' appearance in this privileged
spot, was instantly caught at by the sensitive .
audience, and dexterously turned into an op-
portunity of expressing the feeling Nvhich no-
thing but fear has at any time restrained. The
Duke was hissed and insulted from all sides,
on the pretence of his having Obtruded himself
into the box. Ile WAS for a few moments un-
acquainted
.with his being the' bject of this sud-
den explosion The bolder among the hissers
had now'tound courage enough to pronounce the
.
name of ‘.‘,Ailord Villinton." a A has Milord
Villinton," rained thick upon him.. In a feisr
minutes he retired, expressing, as I' understand,
his surprise that Valabreque, - the Director of the
Theatre, should have tint hiin into an unusual
place. On his departure, cries of " Vive le lioi"
were repeated round the house';_ and the Parisians
had their triumph. in revenge for Waterloo. The-
miserable spit-ILA& this people is more striking on
every neWbWasiOri. They absolutely scorn the
'Kin, f4efrftirned,to ridicule by every.imaginable
•
gesture and:title of contempt. Louis le Restora-

teur," froitlarfallusion at once to his return, and to
his reputed lia'bits of ,gormamlizing ; " Louis le
LLillenr," from his sleepiness of yisage, are the
gentleSt aniofig his appellations. "Le gros cachou,"
is his popular name. Antt yet the French, with
contempt beaming in every eye, shout for this
man ; and on the occasion which I have just
tneiltiOned-, pretended to he, irs with one
stung for the honour of the' Royal figure.

Dine

advantage will be, however, derivable ' froln it.
The Duke has been hitherto possibly influenced
in the excessive forbearance of some of his tnea-
sures,, by, the wish, as Alexander said, of stand-
ing high in the opinion of the Athenians.. The
French are but meagre' representatives of those
;nen of Grieco; but their flattery of him, their

concourse to see him, their eager p'ronuncia-
tiun of his n.une, may have gone some way
. .
to smooth the sternness of tmlaary superio-
rity. •His measures were certainly of the gen-
tlest order. Blucher, knowing the French, and

detesting theta as. they deserve, found the best quar-
ters for his troops that-Paris offered.- The
are still almost totally under canvas, and of course
exposed to the alternations of the weather, which.
is fully as .I.able, to chilloess and rain at-this sea-
son, as that of England. When they have been
put on billets, they have been, in general, thrown.
into the most-mis.erable and comfortless.spots that
the vicinage afforded, and. -three or tour officers
crowded into one roomin the- FauxbOurgs which
would have scarcely-satisfied the Comforts of all
English Mendicant. The quarters on Mont Mar-
tre are among chose. The hope of working on
the gentler spirit of the French is now tolerably
decided, and the British troops way have reason
to thank the Slate exhibition of invetorate inso.

lence for some salutary change.
Nothing is yet publicly fixed for the winter,ar-
rangements of the'arniy. Columns of Prussians
enter and return. But it is said that 3:5,000 British
are to be left in Paris, or beside it. There are at
present nearly 95,000 men in the neighbourhood.
The Duke hns gope Co Brussels*, without, as I am
told, tilting leave of the,King. Vincennes Still
holds outs: the. Governor says, he has provisions
for two years. Vincennes is actuaily in the
-suburbs Of Paris, yet the:King suffers this insult,
And does not threaten to hang this impudent rebel,
whl/46 a wild not bold out an hour if be did not ex-
pect applause from the, Traitors about the Court,
and ribbons and rewardi from the King for sus-
taining the honour of the French nip against the
men u hose hlood- brought lIIUI forh exile.—The
Mimes are reluct<zttt to batter it from htuuanity to
the people.;ol.llm§abar!)s.
