FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Etoile, dated Saturday, May 5.)
LIES OF THE DAY.
PARIS, APRIL 4.—Journal des Debats.—A, re-
port is spread that the National Guard is going to
be reorganized.

The Constitutionnel.—The object of the mission
of the Count d'Ofalia to Paris is to induce France

to adopt the project of the Spanish Cabinet, to
unite Portugal with Spain, ceding to the Emperor
of Brazil in return, Mexico, Guatimala, and some
other independent States which may suit him. The
law relative to the organization of the. Jury, adopt-:
ing by the two Chambers, has just been promul-1
gated, under the dated 2d of May.
Letters from-Trieste, of 21st of April, say that a
vessel arrived in nine days from Syra, has brought
the news that Lord Cochrane is chiefly engaged in
persuading the two Assemblies of Egina and Castri
to meet totgether at a third place, and that he has re-
presentectthat it was necessary, above all things; to
concentrnte all their forces to deliver Athens, and

then to act against Negropont, in order to become
rnastert, of Ronatlia. Every thing possible for the
exect4ion of this plan was immediately offered. The
Candiot,s, who have been dispersed in the islands,.
have been summoned to repair to the Isle of Zea.
Tile Greek steam-beat has captured two Turkish
merchantmen, laden with provisions.
Letters from Leghorn say that the Bey of Tripoli
demands of Tuscany 4,000 Spanish piastres, for the
recognition of M. Rossini, the new Tuscan Consul.
Two Tuscan vessels having sailed some weeks since
for Tripoli, which were not commissioned to deliver
this present, it is feared they may have been de-
tained, and hostilities commenced.

MADRID, APRIL 23.—The Marquis and Marchio-
ness of Chaves have arrived at Irun, where, it seems,
they will remain till further orders. The Captain
Genera! of Guipascoa had them arrested as they
passed through Heruani.

The English Government has caused some.
smuggling vessels to be disarmed, which were under;
the British flag, but were manned by Sardinians,.
Genoese, and Spaniards, and had long cruised on the,
coast of the country of Niebla, in Andalusia. One
of these vessels having attempted to avoid the exe-
cution of this measure, has been brought into:
Gibraltar.

His Catholic Majesty has just given permission
to a merchant at Cadiz to import four steam-engines.
manufactured in England, to facilitate irrigation, on,
payment of a duty of one per cent. on the invoice
trice, under whatever flag they 'may be imported.
This measure will be henceforward extended to
tllmachines of the kind, and to all instruments use-
ful in manufactures and agriculture, till they can be
manufactured in the Peninsula.

An inhabitant of Estremadura has just been au.
thorised to found a town► by the name of St. Amelia,
a desert place, which has hitherto been the retreat of
banditti.

The Governor of the Council of Castille has just
sent a Circular to the authorities of the Kingdom,
announcing that a great many persons have conic
from Lisbon to Spain to excite troubles and disor-
ders; and his Excellency calls on them to exert
themselves to arrest these persons, and send imme-
diately to Madrid those who may be taken.
(From the Constitution/set of Friday.)
PARIS, MAY 3.—Political Reverie.—No one
could imagine the mission with which the new Spa-
nish Ambassador at the Court of England, who has,
been here for the last month, has been charged at the
French Court. Who could conceive that the Spa-
nish Government has imagined an arrangement by
which Portugal would be re-united to Spain, while,
by way of compensation, Mexico, Guatimala, and
other independent States, would be ceded to the
Emperor of Brazil? Do not imagine, that previ-
ously to taking into consideration this senseless pro-
ject, either England or the Republics themselves
were consulted : the opinion of the Court of Madrid
was the only one by which M. Ofalia came sup-i
ported to solicit the French Ministry's countenanced
What opinion are we to form of pretended States-
men to whom people dare to address such extrava-
gander ? And all those fine projects were formed
previous to the Ordinance for the disbanding of the
National Guard 1 The love of justice proba-
bably inspired the Cannrilla of Madrid. It is a re-
markable fact, that.M..ofalia arrived here almost at
the same time as M. Camacho, Minister for Foreign
Affairs and Envoy Extraordinary from the Mexican
Republic, and both stopped at the same hotel.
Another singularity is, that M. de Villele is talk-
ing of the incredible project of giving Mexico to
Brazil, at the same time that he is negociating with
M. Camacho concerning the acknowledgment of the
independence of Mexico.
The Moniieur, in its official part, publishes the
Royal Ordinance, countersigned by the President of
the Council, by which the resignation of the Duke
de Doudeauville, is accepted. The portfeuille of the
King's Household is conferred,par interim, to Baron
de la Bouilliere, Intendant of the King's Treasury.,
Viscount Sosthene undoubtedly continues in the
Department of the Fine Arts.
There is no longer any doubt of the retirement
of M. de Chabrol.
(From the Journal des Debuts, May S.)
MADRID, APRIL 3.—(From a Private Letter.)

The Council of State has just proposed to his Ma.?
jetty to appoint a Committee of men versed in the
law from among the Members of the Council of Cu-
tille, to draw up a new code for the practice of the
civil tribunals. This proposal of the Council is of
the highest importance, for we have only one code,
more voluminous than that of the Romans before the
time of Justinian, composed of regulations almost
contradictory, which renders all cases brought before
our tribunals interminable.
An officer, who has lately arrived from the Havan.
half, has been sent with others for General Vivers ;
he will embark at Cadiz.

AMERICAN PAPERS.
(From the Philadelphia Gazette.)
BUENOS ATRES.—The following is from the
ilfewagero of the 2d of January.
The objections of the provinces to the constitu-
tion appear to be, that it gives too much power to
Buenos Ayres, and that it provides no way for re-
moving the members of the Congress, in case they
give dissatisfaction to their constituents. The
creation of an incontrovertible paper money, by the
establishment of a bank at Buenos Ayres, is also
objected to.
Paper money has produced its usual effects at
Buenos Ayres ; thrown every thing into such con-
fusion, that the itlercantile Gazette says, it is im-
possible to publish a correct price current. Mistak-
ing the rise of prices consequent on a depreciation
of the currency, for an evidence of extortion on the
part of dealers, the editor calls on the police to in-
terfere and punish those who dare to sell things at
their real value, i. e. for what they will bring.
The second iviilletin of the Republican army in
the Banda Oriental, giving an account of the marches
of the different divisions of the troops, from the Ist
to the 14th of January, is published in the paper of
the 22d. By the 13th, the different divisions of
the troops had crossed the Rio Grande.
On entering the 13raiilian territory, the General
Chief made an address to the army, exhorting them
to respect the property and persons of the inha-
bitants.
(From the Baltimore Federal Gazelle.)
We have received by the ship Superior, arrived at
Providence, files of Lima papers and private advices
from Peru to the 20th of December. In the
Peruvian of the 9th of December there is a state-
ment of the celebration which took place in conse-
quence of the adoption of the new Constitution, as

promulgated on ‘a previous day. The principal
officers of the Government took their oaths to sup-
port the Constitution, and great rejoicings, were ma-
nifested by the people of the capital on this occa-
sion, which seemed to derive additional feeling from
the circumstance of its being the anniversary of the
victory of Ayacucho, which gave liberty to the
country. The editor of the Peruvian says :—" On
this day, the charter of our rights goes into operation
to perpetuate the tranquillity of Peru, and to insure
peace and plenty throughout this vast Republic.
It appears that the Peruvians, as an evidence of
their attachment to Bolivar, and confidence in his
integrity, have chosen him President for life. It
now only remains for this illustrious man to consum-
mate his fame by declining the acceptance of that
great honour, proffered by the generosity and grati-
tude of a rescued people ; and that this will be his
course of conduct we may safely venture to affirm.
(Extract of a Letter to the Editor of the Baltimore, Federal
Gazette, dated Lima, Dec. 12, 1826.)
" Since the recent adoption of the new Consti-
tution of Peru, which is predicated pretty much
upon the one proclaimed in Bolivia, every thing in
this country depending upon the consolidation of the
Government begins to assume a new appearance.
In fact, the constituted authorities of the country
are now universally respected, the police well regu-
lated, and happiness generally diffused, as far as my
observation extends, throughout all the ramifications
of society. Commerce is rather dull, money scarce,
and, in mercantile phraseclogy, times hard.' "
MEXICO, FEB. 27.—T0-morrow, it is said, the
army will march from this place to Vera Cruz,
where they are to embark for your place on their
march to Texas to subdue the rebels.—lbid.
A letter from Tampico, of March l lth, states,
that in consequence of the representations of Mr.
Poinsett, our Minister, the Mexican Congress were
re-considering their late acts, laying a prohibitory
duty on our cotton fabrics. A Bill to repeal those
exorbitant duties had passed tie House of Repre-
sentatives, and it was believed would also pass the
Senate. The Mexican Government was about to
despatch a body of troops to quell the late disturb-
ance in Texas.
NEW YORK.—COTTON—Since our last notice of
this article, there has been a very fair, steady busi-
ness done in it, at prices nearly the same as those
then declared; say Uplands 84 to 94 cts.; Ala-
bamas 9to 94. and 91, and Orleans 10 to 104. In
some cases sellers have obtained a little more than
could have been realised last week. The whole
business amounts to 5,000 bales, mostly Alabamas,
at 9to 91 cts., and Uplands at 9to 94, and a few
parcels Orleans 10 to 104 cents, for export.
(From the .New Orleans Price Current of March 12.)
COTTON.—North Alabama and Tennessee are be-
coming plentiful, and have, in the opinion of dealers,
declined full j cent. per pound and are now dull.—
As yet we are unable to report any sales of import-
ance in that from Mobile. The demand for Louisiana
and Mississippi has been fair, particularly for middling
and inferior qualities :
Ordinary to middling, 8 aSi ; middling to fair, Si a 9 ;
fair to good fair, 94- a 10 ; good fair to good, 101 a 11 ;
good and fine, 114 a 13 ; fair demand.
The sales of the week, including all descriptions
have been respectable, though not extensive. We
find there is considerable shipping on owners' ac-
count, which gives the appearance of more doing
than there really is.
MOBILE, MARCH 17.—Cotton dull the past week.
Sales 8 a 9 cents, principally SI.
B.txxs—United States IISI 119
EXCHANGE on London has declined—we now quote it at
10 to 101—on France 5 15.
