MITE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 19, 1144 a.

We have received the Paris papers of Monday.

The KING opened the Chambers at one o'clock on
that day. His MAJESTY, attended by a brilliant

cortege, proceeded in procession from the Tuileries
to the Valais Bourbon, and was received by the people
throughout the line with the most enthusiastic
expression of loyalty and respect. His re-
ception in the Chamber was quite as cor-
dial ; and when the QUEEN appeared, leading
in her hand the Comte DE PARIS, shouts of
" Vive la Beine," "Vive le Comte de Paris," burst
from all parts of the Chamber. We published a copy
of the speech in our impression of yesterday. The
passage in which he speaks of the sentiments of the
Chamber towards himself and his family, and his
Majesty's declaration that there was no trial, which he
was not willing to undergo to forward the prosperity
and grandeur of his country, were received with loud
cheers.
The commission of the Court of Peen charged with
investigating the facts relative to the late attempt on
the KING'S life met on Sunday, at the Chancellor's,
to hear the report prepared by M. LAPLANGE BARRIS..
The death of Marshal VALES is announced in the
Moniteur. The Marshal was in the 73d year of his
age.

Accounts from Algiers to the 10th instant have ar-
rived. We extract the following from the illoniteur Al-
gerien :—" We learn from Mascara that the Saharian
tribes continue to move towards the Tell. Each takes up
the position most suitable to its habits and mode of
encampment. The hostages who were detained by
ABD-EL•KADER have made their escape, but it is
believed that the Emir connived at this, in order to
relieve himself from the embarrassment they would
occasion him in case of a collision with the Hamy-
anes, or perhaps from the difficulty of finding pro-
visions for them at the Deira. Since ABD-EL-KADER
has left the south of the division of Mascara, a re-
action favourable to our cause, dictated by the want of
repose, and the essential means of existence, has been
almost suddenly produced. There are no longer in
the south any more than a few isolated fractions
following the fortunes of the influential chiefs,
who are able to dispense for the moment with
the Tell, on account of their private re-
sources, which enable them to procure at a
second or third hand the corn drawn from our Tell.
The maintenance of tranquillity will admit of our
compelling the dissentient fractions to approximate
themselves to us from our being able to separate them
from the submitted tribes. The last arrivals from
Constantina bring us no news of importance. This
province continues to be in a perfectly calm state. At
every point the contributions are got in without any
resistance ; the Kabyles of the circle of Dellys con-
tinue in their pacific disposition. The harvest season
keeps them in the mountains, and prevents them from
exercising their usual exactions. The influence which
BEN SALEM and BEL KASSIM had gained over them
has been considerably diminished, and the misfortunes
brought upon their country by these two chiefs, who
have so many times deceived them, have deterred
them from undertaking any hostile measures."

The French squadron, commanded by Prince DE
JOIN VILLE, arrived at Syracuse on the 6th, at Mesiina
on the 10th, and was expected at Naples on the 15th.

C RIOUS DISCOVERY.—On the 30th ult., while work-
men were engaged raising the black-band ironstone, at the
open cast on liell'a-holm, for the Lugar Iron Company, and
after breaking up a large block about 4 or 5 feet square, they
discovered near the centre of it a toad. It was small in
size, not much larger than a " skep-bee," and very black.
As soon as it got quit of its ironstone prison it commenced
hopping off until it got into a pool of water, and then it
showed the same dexterity in swimming as those that are
nut accustomed to so long an imprisonment. The ironstone
where it was discovered is from 3 to 4 feet thick, and 30 feet
below the surface.-- Caledonian Mercury.
