DECREE.

In order that the business of my Cowie-61s 'may suffer no
delay ironi the want of the Ministers whirl l: I thought proper
to nominate for the Cemetrission of State, created to decide
all lirOsecutions, gronniled on the occurrences of the un-
fortunate by-past period, I order that the said MiniSters who
compose it, cease their functions, and that each unite hilt.
self to that Clutruher of Council to which he belongs ; and I
apPoint in their stead, as dadges of the said Commission, the
kcaldes of my Household and Court, Don Francisto Xavier
Vn2&ptcs Varela, and Don Jos Alonzo ValdenehrO, under
the Irre..ideney of my Captain-General of this Profvce, ex-
onerating them from attendance in the Chamber of Alcaides
during the time they shall remain in this ennniiision. And
to givc an unequivocal proof of thee benignity of nay
heart towards the unhappy fate of all thoSe under trill
and their families, notwithstanding the penalties, which
they Mere incurred by Law 23, tit. 1. lib., 3, Law
Ist, tit. 7, and LAW sth, tit. It, fit. 11, of the Novisiasa
Itecapilacion: I order that, tatting into consideration the
long imprisonment they have undergone, they be treated
with all the consideration that maybe compatible with the
due .administration of justice., imposing on those who shall
appear really guilty, the penalties of banishment, privation
of employments, and fines corresponding to the quality,
weight, and circumstauces of the crimes and abuses which
they may have committed in the:a political conduct ; and if
any turn out to be innocent, ,that they be forthwith set
sit Melly. I order, in like manner, that, upon those who
shzill Le convicted of having been the chief heads of the
combinations which were formed to destroy my Monarchy,
trpenly 'attacking the rights of my Sovereignty, and wound-
in: my Royal reputation, be intiict,d the punishMent
which they have incurred ley their criutcs, according tone
lass— of the kingdom; consulting me in such cases, through
the medium of my Captain-general, as President, by address-
ng to Ice directly, the sentences which they shall pro-
nounce, before' making them public, for my sovereign resolu-
tion thereon. In like manner, I order, that upon their Ine-
s-it-lug my Royal approbatiou, no resort of appeal shall be ad-
mitted, from it, unless I think fit to determine otherwise; and
t is also my pleasure that, in order that these criminals may
not tieffer too much, all the prosecutions be finished within
the period of six weeks or two months it the farthest, reckon-
ing 11-3 m the day on which the commission is installed.

Under the head of " Refractory Seamen," in
another part Of our impression, wilt be found a
most interesting account of the late commotions,
from the pe; of an intelligent Ft iend, tvas art
eye-witness of the scenes he so ably describes.
We are grieved to annex the following infornia-

tit)n

" NEWCASTLE, OCT. am sorry tc: add to
these details that a rumour has just reached me Hutt
some of the Refractory Seamen, left behind, have
_become mischievous again. Several ships in
Shields Harbour had their cabals cut or' Saturday
afternoon, the ships drifted, and the military had
again to be called out, but nothing very serious
happened.
At the present moment there are still MO
hands out of employment, and I believe the most
of the ships are well manned.. What is to be done
with them V"

-We have Brussels Papers tattle 29th, and those
of Frankfort .to the 25t1). -The former state that
the Head-quarters of the Mike of WELLINGTON
arc to he I'emoyea to Brossels.

Paris Papers of Sunday last, the 29th, have at-
tired, but we have n►ot yet received those of the
27th and 28th. We hasten to lay before our Readers
an epitome of those which have come. The Journal
de Paris states, that the [louse of Peers, on the
27th, by a maiol•ity of one hundred anil twenty
eight Votes to tWenty-riine adopted the project
of the law relative to the measures of General
Safety. The D►►ke of OUDEAUVILLP. and Count
FoNTANEs delivered eloquerr. speeches in favour
of tl,e law, Count LANJUINATS, on the other
hand, opposed it in a vehement orminn, which is
to be printed.

The Martiteur conteos the debate upon this
important question .on the 2Gth (for it tasted two
days) but does not give the names of the Speakeis.
" The.
..first" said so and so ; and " nit sec. °ad
opinant'y spoke as follows. This- resembles the
earliest reporting front our Parliament. The Re-
porters next gave the names of Roman and Greek
orators to the Speakers ; and last of all we arrived
at the perfect toleration and licence which has
so materially altered and itripro-ved the British
Constitution—the free dissemination among the
People of the opinions of the Representatives
chosen by the People, and of the Members of the
Other branch of the Legislature, which balances
between the suhject and the throne. As there is
nothing new in the sentiments delivlered by the
]French Peers, and the only interest the debate
possesses is connected with a knowledge of the
persons who spoke, we may, without loss, post-
pone the translation till to-morrow, and proceed
to the other contents of the Journals.
" A , number of the flake of AvoouLimE's.
household have set out post fur Toolouie.
" General Lecouae died at Befort on the
dal eyed 55.
" On the 31st of August was arrested in the
commune of Cour et BuiS (Isere), a person nam-
ed MirnEw FEL! X, ex-soldier of the 31st regi-
ment, who pretended that he was BLIONAPA RTE.

ment, to pay a fine of 500 francs, lend to be'.at-

ROME, OCT. 12.—The Prince of the Peace has
arrived here from Pesaro, to join King Charles
IV. Ferdinand Vii., yielding to the intreaties
of his father, has consented to this union.

PARIS, OCT. 28.—Lettcus from Italy assure ns,
that MuttaT has been arrested in Calabria, where
he lead disembarked tram a Genoese ship on the
28th September, with 150 followers. He was
delivered up to the Neapolitan Government, which
has sent him to trial on the spot.

CHAMBER OF 15EPUTIES.—Sitting y* the .2 atk Oct.

The discussion of the Law against Sedition was

continued.

It was proposed to add the words " wickedly,
and with a design to excite revolt," to the 7th
article, which was agreed to :Lie salue‘artiOc

Tb ,as- opposed enti __rel__
y, .
,__ as its object was at-raiie-ii
T_
by a law of Abe year ).
This produced some debate ; as did also a num-
s er of other amendments which it does not seem

necessary to specify till the whole project as alter-
ed and approved by the King Can be ascertained.
The result hitherto is, that,

The first article, punishing seditious cries,
speeches, and writings, with transportation, has
been agreed to.

The second article, punkhing tite Ito;sting of a
rebel flag with transportat ion, has been agreed. to,
after a division, on a proposition to substitute the
penalty of death, was lost by a small majority.
The third article, giving cognizance of the of=
fences.. in the tvi rt foregoing to the Criminal Courts.,
has been adopted without amendment,

The fourth article, declaring seditious all cries,
&c. tending tO weaken the respect due to the
king and floyal Family, cries tor " the Usurper,"
and cries against the Constitutional. Charter, has
been attopted with several alllClldinents, the prin.
dual of ‘vhielr was, one to add after the word
" Usurper," the words, "ar any other Leader of
Rebellion."

•Thefifth and sixth articles relating to other se-
ditious acts, and also the seventh after long debate,

I►+ve. been adopted.
At five o'cloe.i. tilt: Chamber adjourned to Mon--

Tun PRINCE REGENT'S COURT.—Yesterday,. at
three o'clock, the PRINCE REGENT held a Privy
COolleil at Carlton House, The REGENT gave
audiences to the LORD CII4.,NCELLOR, Viscount
SIDMOUTH, c.

A Council was held ye‘terday at Carito*House,
for the purpose of tmrking an order for the Pro-
rogation of Parliament from the 2d ofNovembe7
to the 17:h of January, instead of the Ist of Fe-
bruary, according to the former order. It was
found that, by exceeding the usual interval of SO
days, some questions of privilege might be raised,
and it has therefore been determined to recur to
the customary period,. although it remains decided
that Parliament is nut to meet for the dispatch of
business till the Ist of February.

It is reported at Vienna that the Archtinke 3ott.r
will go to Dresden from this country, and marry
the Princess AUGUSTA, daughter to the King of
SAXONY.

Great quantities of artillery, &c: from the cities
in the interior of France, continue to pass through
Schaffhausen. Unvoys of works- of, Art from

. When TALLEYRANP and Foucus asked leave to
resign, the Kirgn, it is said, apprized thttm that
he %void(' refer their application to the Duke of W.
and Lord C. and he governed by their opinions.
A day or two afterwards, TALLETLIAND asked if
his Majesty had made up his mhul upon•tbis sub-
ject—for it was still his wish to retire;—" ‘Vell,"
said the KING, " I accept your resignation."—
This was • without waiting for the answer of the
British arbitrators, although his Majesty had de-
clared, both to them and to his Ministers, that
their decision should settie,his-own.—We cannot
think it probable that ever the King of IttaNce
gave such an answer to kis Ministers.

Lord A3II)ERST, in his Embassy to Chiria, takes

lish ittainttactore. The liast India Company e int
among the presents a most inagnifirent chande-
lier, capaitle of holding thirty-six candles or
lamps, of the most exquisite workmanship, and de-
coration.

Thc Russian Alliance with the Netherlands is

A private letter from Paris says, it is undoubt-
edly true, that the Kin% sent the sum of GOO- francs
to each of the principal churches at Paris, to, pur-
chase masses fin the soul of LABEDOYEIIE. It is
equally certain, that the English nation are out
of favour at Court.

WINDSO'N, OCT. 31.--The Princess MARY has
