We received yesterday the Paris Papers of
Thursday last. Those of Friday, which were due
this morning, have not come to hand.

They add very little to the intelligence %re be-
fore gave, with the exception of further accounts
of shocks of earthquakes, and natural phenomena.
Several shocks of earthquakes have been felt in
Provence, and in different parts of Italy; the latter
in some quarters excited great alarm. At Alazzio,
two houses were thrown down, but happily no lives
were lost. In the Tyrol a singular phenomenon
has occurred ; the Glaciers on some of the moun-
tains there having enormously increased, accom-
panied by loud subterranean noises, although the
Winter has only been moderately cold.
Several of the German Governments are, it is
sair!, endeavouring to raise loans,

The -hardened impenitence of the Culprits who
have been executed for the murder of the LYNCH
Family, in Ireland, ought to operate upon the
minds of the Opposition Writers, who rely upon
the dying declaration of BRANDRETH that he had
been seduced into LiebeMors by OLIVER. Three
of the Irish Culprits, though convicted upon clear
and indisputable evidence, died on the scaffold
with declarations of innocence. hat the Opposi-
tion Writers have a great facility in believing
whatever may serve their cause, and are incre-
dulous in the same proportion When facts are
against them. If BRANDRETH had died with an
acknowledgment of his guilt, and had cleared
OLIVER from the imputation of having ensnared
him, The Morning Chronicle would have treated
his memory with contempt, and have insinuated
that he was induced by sinister motives to make
such a declaration, but as the matter stands,
BRANDRETH is a favourite character with the

Party, and held forth as a martyr to the cause of
Universal Suffrage, Annual Parliaments, and
Radical. Reform."

We wished to have an opportunity of noticing
the professed REPLY of BUONAPARTE to the,Speech
of Lord BATMUEST, but were prevented by more
pressing matter. We shall make a few remarks
on the subject, without regarding whether this
Reply really proceeded from the late Usurper of
France, or whether it is the product ion of some
of .his numerous Wicked agents, or hilly admirers,
who unhappily are to be found in every part of
Europe. The real admirers of this man taust be
little better than idiots, but hi agents are artful

men, .who hate no object in view but the subver-
sion of all legitimate .anthority. Not, perhaps,
that they really wish the wild beast may get loose,.
except his escape may tend to throw all regular
Governments into confusion, that they may have a
chance of 'king upon the ruins. Too many of

these wretches exist in France, and many, no
doubt, in Paris. Hence, we conceive that no-
thing could be more impolitic and more danger-
ous thaw to withdraw the Allied troops from
France, as they really constitute the protection
of that country itself, as well as of all other Eu-
ropean States. We respect the judgment of our
Correspondent in Paris, whose letter we inserted
on Saturday, and we shall always attend to his
opinions, because, being upon the chief scene of
action, he has the means of obtaining authentic
information. We firmly rely on the purity of his.
motives, and are persuaded that what he writes
is founded on conviction, but we shall not hesi-

tate to avow our own sentiments, where we (to

not entirely assent to his views. But to the Re-
ply imputed to BUONAPARTE. In this Reply, he is
stiled a Prince. If an Usurper can be stiled a
Prince, he may have some claim to the designation,
but while the i ightful monarch bf France existed,
it was a profanation of the term, and is 'still more
so now that the rightful Monarch is restored to
the Throne of his Ancestors. Jr is said, its the

Document in question, that " this great man is
dying upon a rock ; he is dying a death sufficient-
ly slow to be apparently natural." This is a
gross falsehood, for it is well-known that he is in
a healthy state, and all reports to the contrary
are circulated for insidious and flagitious pur-
poses. As to his being " a great man," the de-
scription must remind us 'of FlELDlNG'S'admirable
Life of " JONATHAN WILD the Great," who, if
his sphere of action had been the same, could
hardly have equalled in atrocity the great man at
St. Helena. The chief purpose of the Reply is
to complain of the four restrictions which have
bceii adopted 'in' order to secure the world from
the consternation and misery that would probably
result from his liberation. These restrictions
are-1. The detention at St. Helena-2. The name
imposed, of General BUONAPARTE-3. The prohi-
bition from going abroad upon the rock of St.
Helena, otherwise than accompanied by an Of-
ficer-4. The obligation of writing none but
open Letters, to be transmitted to the Officer
appointed to guard Saint Helena ;. and secondly,
of receiving none but opened Letters, which have
passed under the eye of the Minister. When man-
kind 'reflect on the Misery, which this Miscreant
has inflicted upon the world, and which he only
wants the power of again inflicting, can any wise
and well-disposed people think that these restric-
tions are too severe ? After agreeing to the con-
ditions by which lie was placed at Falba, and vio-
lating all those conditions, in order again tDdis-
turh the peace of mankind, he may well think that
he had a lucky escape in not atoning for the h6r-
rors Which he committed on .a public scaffold.
He deserves-no better fate, for a greater offender
against mankind never existed among civilized.
States. But it is said that "no instance will be
cited in the history of Great Britain or of France,
in whickPrisOners of War, were sent away to be
in a state of detention in another hemisphere, and
on.an isolaterl.rock,,in the midst of the seas."—
Granted—but extraordinary cases demand extraor-
dinary measures. There never was so great a culprit
in Great Britain or France before, and this great
Culprit has experienced more lenity than he de-
serves, in not, as we have observed, having been
immolated on the altar of universal justice. It
is said that the four restrictions are " contrary to
the Law of Nations." What right has this man
to appeal to the Law..of Nations, who bas
trampled upon all Laws, human and divine, and
disturbed all Nations ? What regard had he to the
Law of Nations, when he forced his brother first
upon the Throne of Naples, and afterwards upon
that of Spain, elevating his minion MuRAT 1111011
the former, 'and raising the Kingdom of Westpha-
lia for his infamous brother JEROME, obtruding
another brother on Holland; his seizure of ,Swit-
zerland, an independent Republic, and number-
less other enormities that place him out of the
pate of the Law of Nations, and render him
