The great affair that, occupied the Special Mili.
tary Commission at Rouen was terminated yester-
day, The Government Reporter recapitulated all
the fags, and drew his conclusions, in a Speech of
Which the following are some fragment.:
" We have a great but salutary example to set.
On the one hand you see guilt with all its audacity;
on the other, innocence with all its candour ; the
4pressed, who holds out his supplicating hands to
3°4---the wicked, who meditates new crimes. In
rile earliest which is about to take place, the ad.
dress of a villain may sometimes produce emhar.

discourse, and the confusion of both, as much as
the evidence of the fads, will soon :thew you, his
guilt,

other twelve are b:fore you. Doubtless the 4IC.
toted were the original authors of a plot so detest.
able, anti that they had demanded the price of it
from that atrocious GLlvernment, which, fur such a
length of time., has pensioned all traitors, and at.
warded all crimes.
"There is no doubt that the great majority of
the present culprits ate not less to be blamed than
pitied in this important proceeding, and that their
credulity with 'esprit to the guilty principles, is at
bottom the only clime which they have. in reality
committed. But it is also to he believed, that in
this latter number there may be found men, go-
Ironed by the vilest motives, who could not justify
'tornselves from the crime which is imputed toThem.

Presented them with a new occasion for developing
Maims the most easy to combat ; they accordingly

tThe Reporter finished thus : i‘ Here, Gentlemen,

The three condemned persons were shot next
day. They behaved, say the French Papers, with
great courage.

Letters of a very late date from Leghorn, state,
that an Epidemic Disorder had found its way to that
place, and that great numbers of the inhabitants had
&lien a sacrifice to it. On the first appearance of
the disorder a consultation was held of all the Facul-
ty, to inquire into the nature of it. Two only of
the number pronounced the complaint to be the Yel-
low Fever, and were unfortunately among the first
who experienced its fatal effeas.
The remains of Sr. APRA were lately found at
Augsburgh ; she had been a Priestess of VIINU,
in the ages of Pagan idolatry, but embraced the
Christian Religion, with her three maids. A fes-
tival was instituted at Augsburgh, on the discovery
her remains, which lasted eight days, and ended
on Sunday, the 20 of last month. During that
celebration, the skeleton of the Saint was publicly
exposed in a glass.case, for the veneration of the
Roman Catholic believers. Some devout Ladies of
Augsburgh have presented the Saint. with large
diamond rings, golden chains for her neck, and
a silver crown of laurel covered with pearls, for
which they took receipts, enabling them to re-
claim their presents in case that Patroness of
the Bishoprick of Augsburgh should be at any time
secularized. During the feast there was an im.
menu concourse of people from the neighbour.
hood, particularly from Bavaria ; et least one
hundred thousand people came from ten io twenty
hours journey. The great silver offering-dish,
which was placed before the glass.case of the Saint,
filled so rapidly with the donations of the devotees,
that the Monks were obliged to empty it several
times in a day. A sermon was preached every day,
painting, in the must glowing colours,' the heroic
martyrdom of that great sinner, (she was a
Priestess of Venus before her conversion), the
miracles she had hitherto performed, and the great
benefits she had conferred, for these t coo years,
upon the City and Bishoprick of Augsburgh ;
menting, at the same, that the Protestant Inhebi.
tants could not enjoy her efficacious intercession
with the Almighty. A Papal indulgence was affixed
to the porch of the Church, promising forgiveness
of 'sins out of the treasure of grace of the Church,
for two hundred days, to all the faithful who should
confess their sins, take the sacrament, andearnestly
pray to God for the eradication of all heresies.
A very produaivi collation was made among the
Roman Catholic Citizens, to defray the expences
of the Yeast ; and a superb sarcophagus is prepar.
ing to preserve the bones of Sr. AFRA next year.
Father PLACIDUS BRAUN has omitted, in the 2d
edition of his Treatise on the Life and Atis of ST.
ATKA, the passages which were offensive to the
Palatino-Bavarian Government, and to the Protes-
tent Citizens of Augsburgh. The Lutheran
bitants of that City fared very well by the feats,
since the assemblage of so many people employed
every trade.

lion, that near the southern angle of toe Fortress of
Fanagorji, a hill on the summit of % mountain, si.
tuated contiguous to a lake of Soo fathoms in cir-
cuit, began to swell on the 4111 of July last, be.
tween twelve and one o'clock at night. The hill
rose about twelve fathoms, and then burst with
lightning and a rumbling noise like thunder, emir.
sing burning clods and ignited stones, which were
thrown a considerable height, and to a. distance of
MO fathoms. Next a clear flame made its appear-
ance, which spread a disagreeable smell, and blazed
for an hour and a half. The eruption occupied one
half of the lake, forming a hill of ten fathoms in
height, and joo in circumference.
Esc ar E or FRSNCH PR ISONS te.—The Prisoners
et Norman Crois continue in the incesrant employ
of their ingenuity to died their escape. Sixteen of
them a few nights ago accomplished their end, and
notwithstanding the most diligent search, five only
have been re.taken.
Yesterday the Barnet Volunteers were inspected
by General BALPOUIt, in Greenhill Grove Park.
They are a fine body of men, in the highest disci.
pline, and were highly complimented upon their
steady and soldier.like appearance.
Tuesday se'nnight as John Smith, a carpenter, was
going to his work, near Wetheral, Lancashire,
having his side pocket filled with edge.tools, his
foot slipped, and, falling upon one of his chissels,
it unfortunately entered his body under the left arm.
The effusion of blood was so &teat as to occasion
almost immediate death.
