with having exceeded the powers given to them.
As far as is known, nothing was resolved upon.
Therefore, members of the Committee, who have

they have deserved to be dismissed.

the Committee take leave to recommend, that in

should be made for the removal) of those

Committee will proceed humbly to recommend Co
your Royal Highness, the regnl,it;ons which they
conceive will be necessary with respect to the
time and mode of calling in the Silver Coins now
in currency ;. as well as with respect to the al-

spect to the Silver Coins at piresent in circulation,
that it should he pi oposed to Parliament to tin-
thoriie his Majesty,. whenever he shall see fit to

The French ne,'s is, as customary, only one
remove short of utter sterility. The melancholy
effects of restrictions on the liberty of the Press,
is evidenced by the state of these public organs,
if we may so call machines which convey no poblic
intellig•ence on the most momentous suhjects, but
are c►►nfined to Court paragraphs, annonces, and
a few notices of new publications.

A private letter from Paris, of the lit of June,

" It was very• generally rumoured last night that the SwedA
Consul General resident here, M. de Signeul, had quitted
Paris, in consequence of some difference which existed
tweets . his Court and that of the Tuileries.

" It Is said that Marshal Angerean, who had retired to his
country seat near Paris, departed to that 44 undiscovered
country from whose bourne no traveller returns ;" and that
by his will, he has bequeathed to his young, amiable, and
handsome widow, all his immense property, to the entit e
exclusion of his own family and relations.
" From the report of the physicians, it appears that Mas•
sena cannot lung survive his brother Marshal. Ile is now
attacked with a violent spitting of blood, accompanied with
such a didienity of rc.piration, as threatens his speedy -dis-
solution."

To our former information of the approaching
marriage of die Princess MARY and the Duke of '

of the Royal Family. The nuptials 'will take
place very shortly, but the day is not yet fixed.
