London, England, 1819-03-16 00:00:00

Last night and this morning we received the
Paris Papers of Friday and Saturday last. The
Moniteur of Friday contains a Royal Ordonnance,
appointing the Presidents and Vice-Presidents of
the Electoral Colleges of the Departments which
are about to complete their Deputations. The
former are the same we mentioned yesterday. The
Chamber of Deputies assembled on Thursday,
but it does not appear that the Resolution of the
Chamber of Peers, respecting the Election Law,
was communicated, nor was there any public
business transacted of material importance. An
immense number of Petitions were reported ;
after which the PRESIpENT proposed, that the
Chamber should form itself into a Secret Com-

mittce, to hear the Report of the Committee on the

Resolution of the Chamber of Peers relative to
the Droit d'Aubaine. 111.111Atslye'. objected strong-
ly, and at some length, to secret discussions, and
moved that the Report should be made at a pub-
lic sitting. Upon this motion a warm debate
took place, but which led to nothing either prac-
tically with a view to the future proceedings of the
Chamber, or as a trial of strength between parties.
The rule had been established, that when a propo-
sition originated in either of the Chambers without
having the KING'S initiative, it should be discussed
in Secret Committee—and this rule had been in-
variably acted upon. The established order of pro-
ceedingin these cases, together with the precedents,
overpowered 11. MANtrar.; and though at first
supported by the left side, a part of them de-
serted, and, together %vitl► the whole of the right
side and the centre, formed a large majority

(without a division) for a Secret Committee.
The Chamber having►, in consequence, formed it-
self into a Secret Committee, the report was made
in favour of the proposition for the Abolition of
the Droit d'Aubaine, and ordered to be printed.

" There is to be no sitting to-day of the
Chamber of Deputies. The disctsssion is to be
opened next Tuesday in Secret Committee, on the
proposition respecting the Droit d'Aubaine. The
Budget fog• 1819 will very shortly be presented by
the Minister of Finance.

" A Petition against any alteration in the 'Elec-
tion Law has been numerously signed (including
the Mayor and Adjuncts), at Bar Ic Duc, Ole chief
place of the Department of Meuse. Petitions
numerously signed to the same effect have also
been transmitted from Poitiers, Sens, and Phals-
bourg. A Petition to the same effect, signed by
400 Students of the School of Law, has been
stolen froni the bookseller's, where it lay for
signatures, by an individual who pretended be
wished to sign it.

" A man named Vigocret, in a state of mad-
ness, a few days since, set fire to his own hotte
at Auch (Gets), and arming himself with a
double-barrelled gun, be fired at several persons,
particularly his wife, whom he wounded.
" The Russian Prince Gallitzin passed on the
6th inst. through Frankfort, ea Courier, on his
Way from Paris to St. Petersbuigh.
" MM. Lafitte, Manuel, the Marquess de la
Fayette, De Chauvelin and Hernaux, yesterday
laid on the table of the Chamber of Deputies se-
veral bundles of petitions against any alteration in
the Election Law.
LTwo of the Journals give some details of the reception of
the proposition of the Count de Larnoignon, in the Chamber
of Peers on Saturday sennight, foreensuring or complaining
of the creation of the new Peers, but they are so obscure,
that without the aid of private letters the nature of the pro-
position could not be ascertained. It appears to have caused
considerable uproar in the Chamber, as far as can be inferred
from the rapid succession of speakers, which was terminated,
as already stated, by the Chancellor abruptly closing the
sitting.)

It is observed, in a Morning Paper of this day,
which bears an independent character, and which
has no reason to fawn on Courts or on the
People, referring to the late act of the King of
FRANCE, that the creation of a new Majority of
Peers was a measure of pure self-defence in at
