PARIS PAPERS.

We have received the Paris morning and even-
ing Papers of Wednesday. The most important
part of the contents of the latter relates to the
proceedings of the Chambers. On Tuesday the
Duke de LEVIS, the Reporter of the Peers' Corn-
tnission on the project of law for the conversion
of the rentes, made his final summary of the ar-
guments v, hich had been used in the course of
the debate against the Ministerial plan, or, in
otatkhee to the speakers who had
‘avorddiffs:rehiiist replyvi,,w
of the subject from that
contained in his original report. A discussion
thep commenced on the amendments. The fol-
lowing is the amendment proposed by Count
Roy, (late Minister of Finance), which was op-
posed by M. de VILLELE, and supported in a
reply by its author

" The Minister of Finance is authorised to substitute rentes
at 4i per cent. for those created by the State at 5 per cent.,
either by an exchange of the 5 against the 4;1 per cents., or a
reimbursement of the 5 per cents. by a contract at 41.
" 1. This operation shall only take place by fifths, or in a
less proportion, by operating on every portion of the rentes in
the same proportion, co►nmencing by those portions of the
rentes which, united under one name, shall not exceed 100
francs.

" 2. It shall not be renewed in the same six months.

3. It shall be reserved to the holders of five per cents. to
make their election between the re-payment of their capital
and the conversion of it into the new stock.

" 4. They shall be allowed forty days to make this election

" 5. The contract for the new 41 stock, for the repayment of
the dissentient holders, shall be made at a public bidding, as
prescribed by the law of the 17th of March, 1823.
" 6. The reimbursement of the holders of rentes who may
refuse their reduction, shall take place in the course of the half
year which follows that in which the operation shall be termi-
nated, in conforming to the order of their inscription in the
registers, which shall be opened at the Treasury. ..
" 7. The new 41 stock shall not be liable to be repaid till
after the conversion of the whole of the old fives susceptible of
reimbursement."

After the discussion of this amendment, the Chamber ad-
journed till Wednesday. On that day the Chamber divided
on the above proposition, when the Ministers were left with a
majority of only two, the numbers for the amendment being
112, and against it, 114.

After the amendment of 31. Roy and the other amendmenti
had been rejected on Wednesday, the ministerial project was
agreed to, and is ordered to be carried into execution in the fol-
lowing manner :

The operation shall be successively effected by fifths, upon
each portion of renter; each fifth may be appropriated to the
conversion or liquidation in the quarter which follows that in
Which the operation shall have been effected, for another fifth.
" To provide for the liquidation of each fifth, the Minister
will open a loan upon the new funds, in 3 per cents. avid 4 per
cents., by the medium of public bidding.
'• The 5 per cents will be received in payment at par, and by
preference an faux d'adjudication.
" The surplus of the funds will be supplied by the capitalists
admitted by adjudication, to charge themselves with the pay-
ments which may be required."
It is said in the Pilote that M. Sartoris has surrendered his
share of the profits that might accrue to him from his interest in
the contract for the conversion of the rentes.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE COURIER ERAN9AIS.
Paris, June 1, 1024.
SlR—The principal Editor of the Journal des Debats, after
waiting two days, has returned me the enclosed letter, which
he has refused to insert. As a subscriber, I think I have a
right to complain, particularly as it was in that Paper the
letter of Mr. Baring was first published, to which the inclosed
is a reply, and it was of some consequence to me to destroy the
impression which that letter might have matte on the readers of
that Journal. Under these circumstances, I have to beg you
will oblige me by inserting my answer in the next number of
your Paper. I am, Sir, &c. UIt.I3AIN SARTORIS.

" The principal Editor of the Journal des Delia: presents
his compliments to I. Sartoris, and returns him his letter,
and expresses at the same time his regret that he is unable to
insert it.-.L.Paris, May 31."
TO THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL DES DEBAT&
" " Paris, May 29, 1824.
Sin-31r. Baring's letter, inserted in your paper of this
day, obliges me to explain myself with less regard to his teel-
, ings than I observed in my lifter of the 2ilth of this month.
31r. Baring knows very well that I did not make any commu-
nication to the Committee of the Chamber of Peers, and that I
did not speak in the name of the three united bankers. I com-
municated with sonic individuals, Members of. that Commit-
tee, and -I only used the individual name of Mr. Baring. The
real truth is, that I did not reproduce my plan at the time
mentioned, only because he came himself to my house to de-
mand it of me, at the same time announcing that he came to
apologise to me (me faire ainende honorable, these arc his ex-
pressions), that this Oar)* notwithstanding some inconve-
niences, appeared to him to deserve the attention of the
Government, and to offer several advantages under the present
circzmstances ; that he was disposed to adopt it, and that he
would answer for the consent of 31. Rothschild. In conse-
quence, on his invitation, we read it again, discussed it, and
agreed to another mode of drawing it up, such as it is found iu
the minutes of the proceedings of the Clamber of Peers. It
was fairly written out, and two copies made ; he took one to
oceed to the Ministers (I did. not think that it was to endea-
vour to have it rejected), and he begged inc to proceed imme-
diately with the other, and wait on the Members of the Com-
mittee with whom I had some connexion. .

" After this explanation, which is strictly true, the public
will decide if Mr. Baring gave his consent to my proceeding.
That public will appreciate his letter of this morning, his com-
ments on my plan, as well as his signature, affixed to the ex-
traordinary contents of the two letters of denial addressed by
himself and his associates to the Reporter of the Committee,
and to the Minister of Finance.
" I am, Sir, your's, &c. " URBAIN SARTORIS."

MADRID, MAY 29.—We have received by an extraordinary
conveyance the Gazette 6f Madrid of the 27th of May. It con-
firms all the news from Lisbon, which we gave in our last
number of yesterday.
The news f, cm Mexico of the 20th of February represents
that capital, as well as the whole country, to be in complete
anarchy. The troops of Lobat have threatened to pillage
tilexico, if they did not-pay them what was due. They gave
them 200,000 piasters, furnished' by the English, on which
they were again quiet. Various bands of troops are flying
about the country, and have pillaged a courier, carrying 80,000
piasters.

A letter from San Jago de Chili, of the 12th of January,
states that the Royalist army have got so great an ascendancy
over our troops, that a great panic has taken place, and they
have been beaten in every affair.
Our coast is blockaded by the privateers of the Royalists,
which have already taken 10 vessels. It is said that Valparaiso
and Lima are blockaded.
PARIS, JUNE 2.—lt is said that the garrison of Paris is
going to be reinforced by two regiments of artillery. They
also speak of the fonnation of a camp about Paris for the Royal
Uuard.

FRENCH EMBASSY IN PORTUGAL.

" Lrano rr, MAY 3, 1824.—N0t knowing how far he can re-
cur to the ligitimate authority for the immediate remedy of an
arbitrary act, against which he protests in the name of his So-
vereign, as he also protests in his name against all that was
done and passed on the fatal 30th of April ; at least as far as
regards the rights of the throne, the interests of all Kings,
whom ligitimacy Unites together, and lastly, to the reciprocal
2-„,laticrs between .states, as laid down by the 14w of nations;

and not desiring to embarrass, by a claim of reparation, which
may be unseasonable, a Minister always faithful to his Sove-
reign, Baron Hyde de Neuville, requests the Marquis of Pal-
mella to be pleased to send the annexed declaration, and the
keys of the Church of St. Louis, to the individual who violated
the possession of his Most Christian Majesty, in case the re-
lease of the Chaplain of St. Louis, arrested on the mere order of
a subject of the King, without his Maj:-!sty's authority, cannot
take place immediately —a release which would, at least, be a
beginning of reparation. It is the duty of the Ambassador of
France, as well towards his Most Faithful Majesty as towards
his august Master, to perform immediately this act, reserving to
himself to proceed in the sequel as the importance of the case
requires.
" Baron de Neuville begs his Excellency the Marquis de
Palmella, to accept the assurance otitis distinguished considera-
tion and esteem."

THE FRENCH, LEGATION IN LISBON.
" LISBON., MAY 6.
" Senhor Marquis,—The Subjects of his Majesty the King,
my Master, established in Lisbon, are so alarmed by the ex-
traordinary events of which we are witnesses, that I have to re-
quest your Excellency whether such a state of things is to be
prolonged. If it does not cease, I shall have to ask of your Ex-
cellency passports for many families, who will rather embark
for France, and abandon every thing, their commerce and for-
tune, than live in the midst of fears and anarchy.
" Accept, &c.,
" HYDE DE NEUVILLE."
" To his Excellency Marquis Palmella, &c."
[Here follows the declaration of the French Ambassador to
Joao Antoabo Meyer, Justice of the Peace, remonstrating with
him on the violation' of the French Church of St. Louis, and
the illegal arrest of the Chaplain, who was Also Chaplain to the
Embassy. tie makes him personally responsible for this ille-
gal act, and for the neglected state in which he left the church
and its treasure. which was in the care of the Chaplain. The
Ambassador adds,•that Itihad caused the seals to be affixed by
the French Consul, for the safety cf the valuable articles in the
church, and to preseve it from profanation.]
This Gazette contains also the Marquis de Palniella's circu-
lar letter, thanking the Foreign Ambassadors for their spirited
conduct in the late transactions.
