Among the creditors of the fugitive banker Dc Haes,
are 11.11. G. Verleist for 240,000 francs ; Count D'Yves
de Bavay for 242,000 francs ; and the Countess d'Outre-
mont for 128,930 francs.

We learn from Termonde that it is in contemplation to
establish speedily a boarding-school for young ladies, to be
conducted by Nuns of the Order of St: Benedict. The
ancient convent of the Capuchins has been purchased for
the Benedictines of Afflegham for 30,000 francs.
The buildings will be entirely demolished except the
church, and a new very spacious edifice will receive all the
monks belonging to that -abbey. The restoration of the
abbey is with the entire approbation of his Holiness Gre-
gory XVI., who himself belongs to the order of St. Bene-
dict. This is the third abbey of the Benedictines which
has been rest orNl within a few years ; the two others are
that of Piaalia in Bavaria, and that of Solesnes in France.

The Chan b3r of Representatives discussed the remain-
ing articles of the project of law relative to the Post-office.
They concern the establishment of offices in country towns ;
and the sixteenth and last article fixes the Ist of January,

1836, for the time when the law is to be in force. There
having been some amendments, the final vote was deferred
till Monday.—ll de la Belgique, Nov. 16.
BERLIN, Nov. 7.—Great attention has been excited here
by the ungracious answer which the Emperor of Russia is
said to have given to a Warsaw deputation, at his late visit
to that city. He is reported to have assured them that he
gave no credit to any professions of fidelity ; and that the
citadel of Warsaw was built to destroy the city, on the first
appearance of rebellion.
FRONTIERS- OF POLAND, Nov. 4.—A letter from War-
saw says that the Emperor of Russia, during his visit to
that city, had received deputations from all the authorities,
the citizens and the guilds, and that he behaved to them
with great condescension, except to the deputation of the
Municipality. The Emperor, it is said, did indeed receive
the latter deputation, but forbid it from making the usual
address to him, as he should be sorry to hear sentiments
expressed which the Municipality of Warsaw did not en-
tertain towards him. His Majesty is said to have added,
that it was, in fact, the Municipality that encouraged the
unhappy insurrection which had brought such misery on the
country ; and yet, only one year before, the Municipality
had spoken to him (the Eiriperth) of their devotedness and
attachment, and cherished no more ardent wish than that
of long enjoying peace and prosperity under the shadow of
his Government ; that he (the Emperor) had, indeed, done
_everything that he thought calculated to promote the hap-
piness and prosperity of Poland ; he had governed with mild-
ness and conscientiousness, but had met with ingratitude in re-
turn ; and he therefore believed that he did the municipality a
real service if he spared it the necessity of uttering words
which were a vain spew, but not their real sentirlients, which
the deputation would take good care not to express. Ne-
vertheless' the Emperor assured them that he would
wil-
lingly forget what was past, as soon as he should be con-
vinced that they were sincere with him ; in this he would
most readily hear the deputation, and be glad to see it, as
well as all the other deputations. When the Monarch
hereupon dismissed the deputation, he is said to have en-
joined them to take well to heart what had been said, be-
cause he had spoken without reserve ; that the troops in
the citadel were instructed by his order, upon any move-
ment of a revolutionary tendency, to reduce the city to
ashes ; a misfortune, which in that case, 'Warsaw would
have to blame itself for.

VIEN NA, Nov. 6.—Marshall Bourmont has returned to
this city from Bohemia. The report that Count Aleudia,
agent to Don Carlos, was gone to Italy, is unfounded : the
Count is still here.
VIENNA, Nov. 7.—Five per cent Metalliques, 1018 ;
Four per cent., 100 ; Bank Shares, I,3B2.—Allgerneine
Zeitang,- Nov. 12.

PARIS.

COURT OF PEERS.-MONDAY.

The Court was to have met at eleven, but the prisoners
were not brought up until two o'clock. The Hall had un-
dergone a complete transformation since the last Session,
and been reduced to about one-half its priscentive size.
Several tribunes have been altogether suppressed, and
amongst others those of the National and Municipal Guards,
and that reserved to the public, into which admission was
procured without tickets. About ten places had also been
cut off from the gallery of the journalists.
The accused were brought in, escorted, as formerly, by
Municipal Guards, whom they followed without any re-
sistance. The prisoners, from their appearance and dress,
seem all to belong to a respectable class of society. The
young sub-officers of the category of Luneville, who entered
last, were greeted on their arrival by their comrades, whom
they had not seen since the month of May last, having been
confined separately in the military prison of the Abbey.
They were dreSsed in civilians' clothes, and were only dis-
tinguished from the others by the small cockade they wore
in their hats. The primers took their seats in the greatest
order, and remained silently waiting for the Court, which
entered the Hall at half-past two.
After the prosecuting officers had been introduced, the
'Recorder called over the names of the Members of the
House, who were about. 140 in number. The President
then proceeded to interrogate the accused. Offroy, the first
he addressed, refused to reply. The President admonished
him, but to no effect—he declined returning any answer.
Pommier, the next prisoner, made no objection to state his
name, age, and profession ; after which, M. Martin du
Nord, the Attorney-General, rose, and demanded of the
Court to divide the accused into three classes, and try sepa-
rately, first, the sub-officers of Luneville ; second, the ac-
cused of Arbois, Marseilles, St. Etienne, and Lyons ; and
lastly, those of the category of Pais.
The prisoner Offroy, on twing called on by the President
to state his Christian name adsurname, refused to answer.
-The President warned the pi isoner to desist from a line
of conduct so contrary to the interests of his defence.
The prisoner said it was useless to address him—he
should not reply.
The same question was put to several other prisoners,
some of whom refused to reply—the others stated their
names, &c.
The Advocate-General addressed the Court, and stated
the order of the proceedings, as set forth in the requisition,
and which would be the same as that adopted with respect
to the prisoners of Lyons. It bad been decided to com-
mence with the trial of the Luneville prisoners, and the
others in the following order—those of Epinal, St. Etienne,
&c., and finally those of Paris.
M. Tonna, the advocate who had been appointed by the
Court to defend Offroy, declined saviros any thing in his
defence, as the prisoner had refused to recognize the juris•
diction of the Court. • •
The prisoner Gilbert refused to state his name, profes-
sion, &c., contending that the Court was not definitively
constituted, and that the prisoner had not had a free choke
of counsel for the defence.
The requisition of the Advocate-General was then read,
and the Court retired to deliberate thereon.

.. -
Sergeant Andrews, it is Understood, is to act as
Chairman of the Middlesex Sessions pro tem., until the
legal proceedings between Alderman Winchester and Coun-
sellor Rotch are brought to an issue.
NEWPORT, ISLE OF WIGHT.—A public meeting
of the burgesses of the borough of Newport, was held at
the sireen Dragon Hotel on Thursday evening last, to con-
sider what measures should be taken to insure the return
of eligible persons as members of the Common Council.
he return of nine Councillors for the South Ward by the
Reformers is considered certain ; and there is a probability
of four being returned by them for the North Ward. A
decided majority will be obtained by the Reformers.
