LONDON,
FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1818.

The Paris. Papers of Tuesday last, which were
due this morning, have not arrived.

We this.day present to our Readers a long, ex-
tract from a .Pamphlet, which excites a high inte-
rest in the political circles of Paris, and which
was brought .to us by a private friend. As we
did not receive it till late la4t night, we trust that
allowance' will be made for the probable errors of
a hasty translatiou: We shall give the remainder,
which will 'artionni to about the same length,
to-morrow. As it is at present privately circu-
lated in Paris, it has become the more interest-
ing, under the apprehension that it may pro-
bably be suppres'sed, if it even should, be deemed,
in its general substance and tendency, favourable
to Ministers, as it revives opinions and alludes to
events that it would be better to bury in oblivion.
The length of the Extract, and the late hour at
which we this day received a Letter from our
valuable Correspondent at Paris, obliges us to
defer the latter till to-morrow.

It will be seen by our Parliamentary Report,
that the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER has, for
the present, given up his proposed measure re-
specting deposits to be made by Country Bankers,
as a security for the issue by them, of I/. and 2/.
notes.

PIHACY.—Core of Cork, April 2G.—The brig
Alicia Hill, of Liverpool, CRAWFORD, Master,
from Sierra Leone, with bides and ivory, for Li-
verpool, arrived here this morning, after a passage
of nine .weeks. On the Bth and 9th of January
last she was plundered by two vessels, one .ft-briw.
mounting 14 guns, 24-pounders, and the other a
schooner, with one long gun amidships ; they
bad both Spanish colours, and were reaving on
the coast. They took the entire of the cargo,
which was an assorted one, and.eitery articlebe,
longing to the Master and people, together with-
their clothes, and every thing valuable they could
find. They alsp took the ship's stores, sails, pro..
visions, one anchor and cable, and sundry other.
things, too nutnerotis to mention ; they likewise
took :he ship's papers—and she now sails by a
letter from the Governor of Sierra Leone;

• The Company's ships Streatham and William
Pitt arrived qff Portland the 29th ult. They left
Bengal the Sth December, St. Helena the 25th
February, and Ascension the Stb March.
The Carnatic and Thomas Grenville, it is re-
ported, were to sail for England about the 20th
January.

Some German Papers came to band last night,
from which the following is an extract :--

NAPLES, APRIL 7.—The King, our Sovereign, went as far
as the Mole of Gaeta to meet his august brother,King Charles
IV. of Spain. It is a very long time since the two brothers
have had the pleasure of seeing each other: their first meet-
ing was extremely affecting. After having stopped twenty-
four hours at Caserta, ,their Majesties arrived at Naples on
the 3d. The next day-they appeared in public at the Theatre
of St. Charles.

An article from Frankfort, in a Flanders Mail,
states that Mr. LAMB, the English Plenipotentiary
to the Diet, has, by ihe express orders of his
Covernment, delivered to Count LAS CASAS,
who resides in the City of Frankfort, all the
parcels, papers, letters, manuscripts, and 410-
..cuments, which were taken from the Count
on board the vessel which conveyed him from
the Cape of Good Hope to the Thames, Anfong
these papers, which were sent from LondOn to
the Count, are several remarkable pieces, even
designs and plans drawn by NAPOLEON'S own
hand, as well as a very long Report addressed by
LAS CASAS to LUCIEN BUONAPARTE, OD the voyage
to St. Helena, and the abode there. • •

The Duke of WE4LINGTON was expected to
