BRUSSELS, MARCH 23.
Yesterday Messrs. De Poker, Tolman', Bartels, Cocks, Mom-
mem, Vanderatracken, and Le Neve, were interrogated by the
President of the Court of Assize. The trial is fixed for the 13th
April. We are assured that the indictment is very long, and con-
cludes with the following recapitulation :-
4, In consequence of all the preceding circumstances, the said
Dc Poker, &c. are accused, viz. the first three, Polter, Tolman",
and Bartels, of having, by means of printing, writing, particularly
in the Courier des Pays Bat of the Ist and 3d Feb. the Bilge of
31st Jan. and 4th, 6th, and 7th Feb. 1830, directly excited the in-
habitants to form a plot tending to change or to destroy the form
of government of the Netherlands, which plot was to consist in
the establishment and carrying into effect of a Confede-
ration or Association of the nature of that proposed by the
said accused in the above-mentioned Journals, and of having com-
mitted this act as authors or accomplices, having, in the latter capa-
city, given orders to commit it, or in having knowingly aided and
abetted the author or authors of the act, and the proceedings which
served to prepare or facilitate it, or in those which consummated it;
and the last three accomplices in the above act, or the acts which
tended to facilitate, or which completed it, particularly by printing
and publishing the said Journals, on which the Court of Assize of
South Brabant will have to pus judgment."
His Royal Highness the Prince of Orange arrived here this morn.
ing from the Hague.

FRENCH PAPERS.

RXPRESS FROM PARIS THIS MORNING.

We have received by express the Gazette de France,
dated Saturday and Sunday, the Messager des Chant-
bres, the Monitenr, and other Paris papers of Friday and
Saturday.
The Monitcnr of Saturday contains a royal ordinance, creating
an Under Secretary of Stateship in the War Department; and
another ordinance, appointing the Viscount de Charnpagny, Aide-
de.camp of the Dauphin, to the office of Under Secretary.
" Letters from Toulon state, that' a report is current of the Circ4
frigate having entered Algiers with a flag of truce. It was men-
tioned some time since that a vessel, with a diplomatic
Alenon
board had left Toulon, in order to convey to the Dey of l e the
ultimatum of France. This explains the entrance of the Circe into
the port of Algiers, if the report be true. What is certain, how.
ever, is, that great activity prevails on the coasts of Barbary and
in the vicinity of Algiers. The Bedouins are moving in all direc-
tions, and it is said that every rock on the coast is mounted with a
battery. The noted pirate Bavares, who has been for some time at
Toulon, is to go back with the expedition. He has promised to
bring the Dey into the French camp, if a company of determined
men be given him. He is acquainted with all the subterranean
issues of the citadel where the Dey has fixed his residence.'
" The Augsburg Gauen* gives letters from Senn, dated
March 11, which state that, according to accounts from Constan-
tinople, the Reis Effendi has been removed from state affairs. Of
his successor nothing is mentioned in these letters, but they vet*
of the continuance of the insurrection in Asia Minor, and of the
approaching departure of Count Orloff and M. de Butenieff from
Constantinople.
" The Courier de Bayonne contains the following intelligence
of the 10th instant from Lisbon Public spirit is here repressed,
but not extinguished, of which a new instance has just occurred.
The Corporation of Trades have for a long period enjoyed the pri-
vilege of nominating 24 deputies to represent their body at the Se-
nado or Municipality,who also elect one of their number to be Judge
of the People; and this Judge has the right of admittance at
all times to the King, and to command all the doors of the Palace to
open to him by a single blow of his staffi These deputies and their
chief (Le Juiz de Foro) having presented themselves at Quelus
without wearing the medal with Deo Miguel's effigy, were -sent
away under various pretences, were deemed Malhados, and their
election annulled by the absolute command of the Prince, who, by
an express mandate, enjoined the corporations to meet again, and
proceed to a new election, the first having been obtained by undue and
teprehensible fraud. The same ordinance appointed as President of the
election a magistrate known for his violent principles, and upon whom
the Court relied for influencing a choice more favourable to its views.
The corporations, consisting of between 7,000 and 8,000 pertain,
were then re-assembled ; and, in opposition to all the efforts of the
President, they re-elected the same 24 Deputies, who, in their turn,
nominated the same person for Judge of the People as had met
with an idiom at Queluz, and had incurred the displeasure of the
Prince. It cannot be denied that, in this instance, the artisans have
displayed firmness and courage.'
" The African expedition will sail from Toulon on the 6th of
May ' if reliance may be placed upon a report which appears to be
well founded. Succen in anticipated ; and to attain this end, mil-
lions will be unsparingly expended : these disbursements take place,
it is true, without grants being made by the Legislature • but the
Chambers are prorogued, and success will justify the undertaking.
Amidst this infatuation a generous voice is heard : a Deputy, who
is ever found in the breach, M. de Laborde, has addressed to the
King and the Chambers en energetic protest against this violation of
the laws of the land. It is desirable that all our Deputies should
employ, with equal utility, the leisure forced upon them by the
fears of the Ministry. Subjects for the exercise of their talents are
by no means wanting.
" We hear that the regiments destined for the African expedition
are to be at Toulon by the 28111 of April, at latest.
" It is said that the Swiss regiment Bleuler has refused logo to
Algiers, claiming the execution of the capitulation, which leaves
them the choice of going on service or not when France is at war.
A French regiment has been appointed in its stead.
" Colonel Hababi, who commanded the Alainclukes of the Im-
perial Guards, is said to be charged by the Minister of War to
merge 40 dragomans for the African expedition. These dragomans
are to be chosen from among the officers, nub-officers, and privates
of the corps of 111amelukes, who camped the fire of the many
during the wars of the empire.

to furnish pert of the sup int fee the African expedition, est elf yes,

port for Toulon, and that all the crews of ships of the line, and
officers in a state for service, have gone to Brest. The brig Asses
was to be launched on the 24th. A great quantity of ammunition
and stores have been sent off from Rochefort.
" The Tuscan ship Caroline, and the Sardinian vessel called the
Virgin of Alontenero, which were captured last year by the French
squadron off Algiers for attempting to violate the blockade, have
both been condemned by the Council of State, as good and lawfizi
prices, with their cargoes, which consisted of marble, timber, deals,
aion,kzeoe-goods, coffee, sugar, indigo, and other merchandise.

NEWSPAPER AND ADVERTISEMENT
DUTIES.

The EDITOR of the Scotsman has addressed, in the
last number of his independent newspaper, a very sensible
letter to the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER on this
subject. He clearly proves the impolicy of these taxes
in a way that even the Hon. Mr. Goumity RN will have
somewhat more difficulty in disputing than 'he had the
other evening in combating with Sir RosEnT HERON.—
Without further preliminary remark, we proceed to chew,
from the Scotsman, that the eight out of twelve New York
papers of 26th March, 1827, contain

3117

Average number in each . . . 389
From these data, the number of advertisements published by the
twelve in a day, a week, a month, and a year, may be easily
♦dvtteeerdtise;ments published by 12 Daily Papers in New York.
In one day - - - . 4,888
In cad week . - - . 28,008
In one month (96 days) 121,368
In one year . . . . 1,456,416
There are at least sixteen or eighteen other papers in New York,
published once, twice. or thrice a week, which must be equivalent
is four daily papers more, and must raise the annual number of ad-
vertisements to nearly 2,000,000.
Now. it appears from the Finance Accounts, that the gross pro.
dam of the Advertisement Duty on an average of the years 1828,
1827, 1828, in Britain and Ireland 111/..
In Britain - . - £153,709
In Ireland 15,210

In the United Kingdom - . £188,919
We have next an estimate of these advertisements, and we con-
sider a inn, fair one.—lt leAs follows :
