Ilea NIAJESTY.—The following is the Bulletin
of this day :
" liBttiPALACE, SEPT. 9.
" EIRa 'MAJESTY has passed a good night, and
is better this morning.
(Signed) " F. NIILMAN.
" H. HALFORD."

We received this morning the Paris Papers of
Sunday last. The following are extracts :
" PAttis, SEPT. 6.—Yesteiday the King pro-
menaded to Veriiires, at-tended by the Dukes de
Gi.animont, (le Duras, and d'Avaray.
" The Sculptor Mansion is employed to pre-
pare a bust of Rembrandt for the Royal Museum
of the Louvre.

" A dreadful fire broke out on the Ist inst.
in the Commune of CEuf, near St. t'ol (Pas
de Calais), which destroyed 39 houses, five large
farms, the church, and the chateau. A man in
endeavouring to save a female, who had descended
into her cellar, pet ished with her. Five children
are missing, who are supposed also to have been
burnt to death. Several per*on* were much
wounded or burnt, and some of them dangerously,
The progress of the flames was so rapid that
neither furniture nor the produce of the harvest
could be saved. The damage is estimated at up-
wards of 500,000 francs.

" Mr. Juhn Braker, the English Consul-Gene-
ral at Aleppo, arrived at Marseilles the '29th tilt.
with all his family, on his way to England. Ile
has with him eleven Arabian horses, the beauty
of whose figures excites general admiration.
" The Emperor of Russia, the two Empresses,
and the Grand Dukes, are all expected at Wei-
mar, before the conferences at Aix-la-Chapelle.

" BAYREUTH, AUG. 28.—Letters from Egra of
the 26th state the receipt of intelligence that the
health of Field-Marshal Prince Blucher was in
such a state that he could neither take the waters
nor bear the motion of a carriage, and that he was
in consequence carried on a litter. The Prince
appears to be entirely exhausted.

-" BANKSOFTHB RHINE, AUG. 24.—The garri-
son of Aix-la-Chapelle, (hiring the sitting of the
Congress there, will consist of 4000 men.

" STRASBURG, SEPT. I.—Early this morning
the Duke of Wellington'reviewed the Wurteut-
burg troops at Gundershoffen, in the Canton of
Neiverhronn. His Grace set out at noon for
Sarguemines, the Bavarian headquarters, front
whence he will proceed to Sedan.
". The Austrian head-quarters have quitted
Haguenau, to return to Colmar.
" AIX-LA-CHAPELLE, SEPT. I.—The number

" The equipa&es of the Emperor of Austria

have arrived at Cologne, and are expected here
the 4th inst. Those of t►►e King of Prussia set
out from Berlin on the 21st ult."

We gave exclusively, on Saturday, the last
number of The Royal Gazette and Bahama Adver-
tiser, and we have since been favoured with the
contents of private letters from that quarter. It
appears that the Official Communication from Earl
BATHURST, which appeared in that Bahama Paper,
has by no means, as we before observed, been
satisfactory to the inhabitants at large. The fol-
lowing are stated to us to be the facts of the case,
but for which we cannot presume to vouch. The
Attorney-General WILLY has been in the Bahamas
about twenty years. It is said he misrepresented
the proceedings of the House of Assembly to the
African Institution. When l►e was summoned to
explain his conduct he did not attend, but fortified
his house, armed his Negroes, and for some time
avoided the Messenger of the Assembly who went
with a warrant to arrest him. He was, how-
ever, soon after arrested by the Provost-Mar-
shal and put into prison ; but was dis-
charged on bail by the General Court, who, it
is said, have since professed regret at having dis-
charged a person who had been imprisoned for
contempt by a competent authority. A sort of
appeal was then made to the Government in this
Country, and it appears that the answer did not
recognise the authority of the House of Assembly.
to imprison for contempt, though it is alleged
that every common Club may vindicate its own
sittings, for gross intrusion or o;ber misbehaviour.
It has been urged, that by this decision Govern-
ment was of opinion that an inferior Court could
over-rule a superior Authority, and may declare
that to be no contempt which the superior had
declared to be a contempt of an aggravated nature.
The Government, however, did not decide whe-
ther the General Court, in avowing its superiority
over the Sovereign Jurisdiction, and that the
Judges could discharge a person in contempt,
though the Judges in Westminster Hall never do,
acted thus from ignorance or servility. The
House of Assembly, conceiving that the Govern-
ment at home had acted on mistaken principles,
or on partial information, resumed their proceed,
iogs against the ATTORNEY-GENERAL. The Same
CHIEF JUSTICE, it is stated, then acting as Pre-
sident, who had detern►ined that the inferior may
over-rule the superior, and that a person acting
in contempt of a superior might be discharged,
thought it a heinous offence in the People's Re-
presentatives, and therefore dissolved them, for
supposing that the Government might be mis-
informed as to facts, have misconceived the
policy or 4 such a measure, and be mistaken in
its opinion, when it supposed the inferior
to be higher than the superior, and that the
Officer in contempt, who had been indicted on
this breach of the peace by the Grand Jury, and
found guilty by the Petty Jury, was quite inno-
cent of any offence. Such, we are informed, is
the state tit affairs in Bahama ; and it is added,
that the late House of Assembly is preparing a
history of the whole transaction, to be submitted
to Government at home, which, it is not doubt-
ed, will minutely investigate the case, and decide
with impartial justice.

We learn by accounts received this day, that
two of the most vehement Orators of Stockport
have been apprehended at Manchester, and that
there is now reason to hope that the IA wildts in
those parts o ill soon subside. %Ire must again
bear testimony in favour of the Magistracy, who
have acted with good temper -and moderation,
but with firmness and decision.

Mr. BROUGHAM has thought proper to publish
a Letter, addressed to Sir SAMUEL RoMILLY, on
the subject of the Act for inquiring into the abuse
of Charities. Extracts front this Pobliestion are,
of course, taken into the Opposition Papers. litre
gave, on the 22d nit., a list of the Persons ap-
pointed to act as Commissioners under this Act,
and we defied Mr. BROUGHAM or his Party to
find a more re,pectahle and more competent
'et of persons throughout the Kingdom. It i$
hinted in this pamphlet that "all men in high office
are beset with applicants." Looking at the list, is it
possible to suppose that any of the Members would
apply to he included in it, though they might be
expected to assume the trust from motives of
public justice ? The pamphlet also says,—" We
(Mr. linooonAm and his Party) still trusted that
the power would not be abused ; and we looked
to the wholesome controul of Pa rl iament and the
Public for a security that the work would be done
with diligence, upon whomsoever it might de-
volve." Now. as there can he no reason to be-
lieve that the work will not be done with dili-
gence, since wise, able, and unimpeachable cha-
racters are employed on it, what occasion is there
for Mr. BROUGHAM'S palllpillet, which seems to

have been published for the pnrpose of prejudicilit'
the minds of the people at large, and from an Ore
pension that a fair and impartial investigationciftbero
subject will produce a result very different fill
the predictions of Party, and a full proof that %1
or most, of the alleged abuses are wholly "'it'
out foundation ?
