Chamber of Peers, at the close of a life which it has not de-
pended on me to render more useful to my country, will at least
bear evidence that I have not been without devotion to those
convictions which have had for their sole object the happiness
of the people.
" Accept, Sir, the assurances of my high consideration,
" AUDRY DE PUYRAVEAU, Deputy."

This open denunciation of the whole conduct of
the Chamber of Peers will not fail to create a sensation
throughout France.

BOURSE, THREE o'CLocK.—ln consequence of the trifling
improvement in the English 3 per Cent. Consols, the French
3 per Cents. have risen to 79f. 60c., their present price.
The Spanish securities are also better and steadier; there
is, however, scarcely any business doing in them, anda parties
seem to be on the qui vive about the intervention, which is
supposed to be at this moment under discussion.

In the John Bull, that weekly mouth-piece of the
" Church and King" party, we find the following
precious morceau :—" The King constitutionally sup-
ports the Administration, but it cannot fail to be ob-
served that none of its members are admitted to the
honour of associating with his Majesty upon any oc-
casion, except those of a purely public character."
Now, if the statement contained in this sentence be
true, what effect is it calculated to produce on the pub-
lic mind ? What feelings would the people entertain
towards their Sovereign, could they believe him capable
of acting in the manner in which this injudicious and
intemperate print asserts he acts ? The KING, it says
in effect, is so opposed to the principles upon which his
Ministers are acting—and of which the nation through its
representatives has pronounced its solemn approbation
—the KING is so opposed to these principles, that he
will not admit his Ministers to his presence, except in
their official capacity. From all the courtesies which
it has hitherto been the practice of the British Monarch
to extend to those whom he has selected as his respon-
sible advisers, and which GEORGE the THIRD, with
all his political bigotry, never withheld even from the
man whose name he had once erased, with his own
hand, from the list of Privy Councillors—from all
these courtesies, if we are to believe the John Bull,
-Lord MELBOURNE and his colleagues are entirely
debarred.

We shall, no doubt, be told that the KING has not
selected his present Ministers, but that they have been
forced upon him by the people. Grant it is so—
what then ? Is it wise in the KING to treat with
such marked disrespect the men whom the people
" delight to honour ?" Will they not be offended at such
disrespect ? Will they not be disposed to resent it ?
If the statement, therefore, be true, it is bitter bad
policy in those who profess themselves the friends of
the Monarchy to divulge it--if false, what punish-
ment is sufficient for such an offence against decency ?

We have inserted in another column, at the earnest
request of a Correspondent, a letter on the subject
of Home-colonization. 'We do not by any means
pledge ourselves to the practicability—or to the
utility were it practicable—of the plan proposed by
the author of the letter alluded to ; but we think the
employment of the poor in the cultivation of waste
lands a subject of great importance in a national point
of view, and regret that it attracts so little of the public
attention.

A deputation, consisting of several influential mem-
bers of the Chamber of Commerce, Dublin, waited upon R.
M. O'Ferrall, Esq., M. P., on Monday last, in Dublin, with
an address of congratulation upon his appointment as one of
the Lords of the Treasury, and expressive of confidence in the
present Administration.
A Bill to exclude the borough of Stafford from re-
turning Members to serve in Parliament, was brought in by
Mr. Divett and Mr. H. L. Bulwer, and ordered by the House,
on the Ist of June, to be printed. Notorious and systematic
bribery and corruption have been proved to have long prevailed
in the elections for Stafford.

TRIAL OF THE ABBE ROUBIGNAC.—On May 26
we gave a copy of the act of accusation (indictment) drawn up
in the case of the Abbe Roubignac, accused of having occa-
sioned the death of a young woman, aged 18, of the name of
Faramoud, through various acts of torture imposed on her by
the Abbe, who was her confessor. The motives assigned to
the Abbe, far from partaking of the religious character he had
iliduced the poor credulous girl to believe, were of the most
immoral and depraved nature. The annals of criminal justice
in France have seldom exhibited a case so revolting as that of
the Abbe de Roubignac. The Gazette des Tribunaux, from
which we copied the indictment, now gives an account of the
trial, which took place at Albi on the 22d of May, and at
which it appears that the whole of the imputations laid to the
prisoner's charge were fully proved. A great part of the pro-
ceedings were private, owing to the indelicate nature of the
evidence in support of charge, and of the Abbe's depraved
habits and practices. Having been prosecuted on a charge of
murder without premeditation, he was found guilty, and sen-
tenced to 12 years' hard labour (galleys), without exposition,
which means 12 years' imprisonment.

LORD ALVANLEY.—The evening before Lord
Alvanley went to meet Mr. Morgan O'Connell, he from a
dinner party arose at an hour that was early, with the quiet
apology that he " was going on a shooting excursion !" Eh !
that's good ? Nobody suspected the deed of " high emprize"
he contemplated. Then, again, when Colonel Hodges an-
nounced the so unreasonable and fierce requisition of Mr.
Morgan, that they should fire after the second exchange of
commodities, and Lord Alvanley's friend, Colonel Dawson,
handed him a loaded pop for the third time, he aptly remarked,
" Why, Dawson, we shall go on firing till the Ist of Septem-
ber." Eh l isn't that good tempered, and courageous, and
pleasant? Answer, ye glum Saracens ! Finally, when ho
got out of a hackney-coach on his return, he presented the
driving personage with a sovereign. " Lord, Sir, I can't
have all this for taking yott such a short way I" " No, my
good fellow," quoth his Lordship " it's for bringing me back !"
Ha; ha l ha I—now don't you call that good-humour, and
generosity, and genuine wit ?—Fox's Monthly Repository.
EFFECTS OF JEALOUSY.—A servant girl, named
Julia Keating, was yesterday charged before the Magistrates
at Union Hall with having thrown a quantity of vitriolic acid
over the face and person of another servant named Charlotte
Hazell. It appeared that she had called on complainant, and
after making several inquiries about a policeman, of whom it
seems they were both enamoured, had thrown the vitriol in her
face and immediately made off. The lower part of com-
plainant's face was dreadfully. burnt. The prisoner not being
able to pay the fine imposed upon her by the Magistrates, was
committed to the House of Correction.
A policeman, who had been residing in the house
of Mr. Walpole, near Mountrath, took an unworthy advantage
of that gentleman, a few evenings since, by seducing the affec-
tions of Mr. Walpole's daughter, whom he persuaded to a
clandestine elopement, to the utter dismay of her distracted
parent, who had no idea of the plot. Mr. Walpole had ex-
posed himself to annoyance by.voting for Coote and Vesey at
in consequence of which the

AWFUL EXPLOSION.—On Monday afternoon the
new twin steam-boat, Advocate, while landing at the Coney-
man's Wharf, burst out the after-ends of two of her boilers
with such violence as to make a complete wreck of both her
cabins; in fact, carrying away the whole after end of the
ladies' cabins with such force as to throw some of the fragments
a distance of about 150 feet. By the unfortunate accident
ten or twelve persons are injured, some dangerously. The
explosion is represented to have been as loud as the report of a
six-pounder. We understand that the boat is on the high
pressure principle, and that the accident was occasioned by
the accumulation of steam in the boilers while she was lying at
the dock. She was built on the ferry plan, with the wheel in
the middle. She was entirely new, and was intended to run
between Hudson and Albany, and this was her fourth trip.—

Up to the present hour, the British as well as the Foreign
