FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Moniteur of Friday, August 14.)
The official part contains three Royal Ordinances.
The Ist apdoints M. Mangin, Councillor in the
Court of Cassation, to the oil ice of Prefect of the
Police of the Department of the Seine, instead of
M. de Belleyme, who is appointed to another office.
H. Appoints M. Moreau, President of the tribunal
of the First Instance of the Department of the Seine,
to succeed M. 3.l3tigin in the Court of Cassation.
111. M. De Belleyme is appointed to succeed M.
11-loreau.
" DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR.
" CIRCULAR.

" TO THE PREFECT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF

" PARIS, AUG. 12.
" Sir,—Being called by the choice of the King to
direct the Department of the Interior, I feel the
whole value of this august confidence without con-
cealing from myself that it imposes duties upon me.
" That I may not be discouraged by them, I feel
it necessary to depend upon the veal and devoted-
ness of all the public functionaries ; I particu!atly
need the assistance of those whom the goodness of
the King has placed at the head of the Administra-
tion of the Departments. _ .

" But this concurrence would lose its efficacy, if
uniform in its progres4, and regulated by a prudent
firmness, it was not equally remote from the weak-
ness which ruins States, and the imprudence which
endangers them. •
" It is between these two shoals that you, Sir,
will have to steer. Placed between the public
liberties, which it is the firm will of the King to
maintain, and the excesses of licentiousness which

it may be necessary to repress, it is your duty to
cause the laws to be executed without distinction of
opinions and persons, not, however, like a blind
and passive instrument, but as an enlightened Ma-
gistrate, judging arid appreciating circumstances,
and always directed by the public interest, and a
courageous devotedness. In securing to ail justice
and protection, the administration owes favour and
recompences only to services rendered to the
Prince and to the State; its confidence cannot be
granted except to those who know how to deserve it.
" It would, therefore, be with real pain, Sir, that
I should in your place, offer to the choice of his
llajesty, individuals who should not unite to the
ability necessary duly to fulfil their office, a true
attachment to our august dynasty, and to the insti-
tutions which it has given to us, because it is only
by employing men so devoted, that vou will revive
the confidence of honest men, will rally them to the
Government, and will give them strength to resist
inferences which are powerful only through the dis-
couragement of the friends of order and legitimacy.
" It is not, however, the intention of the Go-
vernment to disturb established situations, or to
cause a re-action. All that will frankly join it, and

second it in the strict observance of the Consti-
tutional Charter, may depend upon its support.—
Whoever should tend to depart from this invariable
line of conduct, will have at least we hope so, the
courage to do himself justice. In the contrary case,
I depend too much on your devotedness, not to be
convinced that you will hasten to inform me of it.
Accept, Sir, the assurance of my distinguished con-
sideration. (Signed) "LA BOURDONNAYE."

, I At4assador at Rio de Janeiro, dated the 18th
(From the Gazette de France, dated Saturday.)
PARIS, AUG. 14.-7-Two journals say this morn-Ine and from the British Minister at Buenos
ing, that M. Cottrvbisier has refused the Department; yres, dated the Bth of May.
ofjustittt We can affirm that this statement is falsti`i
grata of the Morning Journals :
It was announced this evening, that M. dfreligny's
refusal to accept had been received.
_z
It is announced that Mesoiste-Labourdonnaye
and de Bourmont will not rsmain in the Ministry,
but that one of them will have a successor in a few
days. M. Ravez would succeed M. Labourdonnaye,
and the Duke of N4gusa M. Bourmont.
Reports of the re-establishment of the Censor-
ship, circulated in Paris on Sunday ; the 16th Aug.,
at the latest, was fixed for this event.
It was said that one of the acts of the new Cabi-
net will be to Heal the troops from the Morea.

At the Colonial Office despatches have been
received from Major RICKETTS, Governor of

Sierra Leone.

By the Express which arrived this morning
we have received the French Papers of Satur-
day, but their contents are unimportant :--
(From the Gazette de France of Saturday.)

Pi RIS, Atm. 14.—Their Excellencies Messrs. Courvoi-
sier, de Rigny, and de Montbel arrived to. day at Paris.
By an ordinance of the King, of August 8, a pension of
12,000 francs is granted to Messrs. Hyde Neuville, Vis-
count Caux, Viscount Martignac, Count de St. Cricq and
de Vatimesnil.

The Count de Bourmont, Minister of War, received
yesterday morning the congratulations of all the corps of
the Royal Guard, of the Gendarmerie, and of the regiments
of the line composing the garrison of Paris.
(From the Messager des Chambres of Saturday.)

PARIS, Auc. 14.—The Journal de Paris has received
this morning the following anonymous notice :
" A machination is preparing for Saturday, during the
ceremony, which will serve as a pretext to issue, on the
same day, an Ordinance against the Press. This Ordi-
nance will be immediately put into execution, in order
that the Gazette and the Quotidienne may alone give an
account in their manner of the event which will seem to
be the foundation of the measure."

If there could be any foundation in this notice we doubt
not that the calm attitude of Paris, which will never con-
found its King with the advisers of his Throne, will
easily defeat such a Machiavilian plot, the whole disgrace
of which will rest on its authors.

[None of the Papers contain any news from the theatre
of wan—Saturday being the holiday of the Assumption,
no Course of Exchange was published.]

Intelligence received from St. Petersburgh,
and inserted in the Dutch and Hamburg Papers,
states the loss of the Turks at the battle near
Pravadi, on the 11th of June, in which the
GRAND VIZIER was defeated, with 5,000 killed,
besides an infinite number wounded. The Rus.
sians, it seems, lost 32 staff officers, and 1,239
privates:—

ST. PETICASBURGII, JuI.Y 29.—Count Fiquelmont,
Ambassador from the Emperor of Austria, had his first
audience of the Emperor and Empress, at the Palace of
Yelagin, this morning. Countess Fiquelmont, Lady
Heytesbury, and her daughter, had afterwards the honour
to he presented to the Empress.
The detailed bulletin of the victory obtained on the 1 Ith
of June, over the army of the Grand Vizier, near Pra-
vadi, concludes with the following statement of the loss of
the two armies :

" These spirited advantages over the Grand Vizier
could not be obtained without considerable loss. Our
loss was—

" Killed-32 Staff and superior officers, and 1,239
privates. Wounded—Major-Generals Otroschtsellenko
an4l Glasenah, 29 Staff and superior officers, and 1,009
privates.

" The loss of the enemy is far greater: besides the
prisoners, he lost in the battle and flight 5,000 killed ;
and, as we have already said, the whole baggage of the
Grand Vizier's army, his own equipages, six standards,
and 43 cannon, fell into the hands of the comperom"
Br% NDENEURGH, Aua. B.—His Majesty the King of
Prussia was on the 3d at Schandaw, in Saxon Switzer-
land, where he spent his birth-day in the bosom of his
family. The next day his Majesty dined with the King
of Saxony, at Pilnitz. His Majesty will return to Pots•
dam on the 15th, set out the next day for Brussels, and
arrive at Paris on the 6th Sept.
We hear from Constantinople, that the Sultan has de-
dined any intervention of Prussia without the concur-
rence of England.
COPENHAGEN, Auc. S.—The Russian frigate which has
arrived here belongs to the fleet bound from Cronstadt to
the Mediterranean, and which may be therefore shortly
expected.

THE HAGUE, AUGUST 13.--SiT Sidney Smith yes-
terday made a trial of his apparatus for saving the lives of
persons shipwrecked. It cost much time and trouble to
get it to sea, but at last it succeeded. The concourse of
spectators was extremely great. The Commissioners ap-
pointed by his Majesty to draw up a project of law on
public instruction meets at most every day at Brussels.
It is affirmed that it will have completed its task by the
end of September. Nothing transpires respecting the
principles it has adopted.
The labours of the Commission appointed to draw up a
new Code of judicial proceedings are drawing to a close,
and it is affirmed they will be concluded by the end of
this week.

Buenos Ayres Papers, dated May 16th, state
that military preparations were still going on in
that city with increased activity ; and that ano-
ther action between the armies of General LA-
VALLE and Governor LOPEZ might be soon
JOHN T. BRIGGS. I expected

Butt Nos AYRES, MAY 16.—Military preparations are
still going on in this city with increased activity. Troops
have embarked, and we believe artillery, to form (it is
said) an expedition against Santa-Fe. The Monteneros
hover in the neighbourhood, and daily skirmishes take
place. It is rumoured that another action between the
armies of General Lavalle and Governor Lopez may he
soon expected. The head-quarters of the latter were at

Lujan.
In the midst of all these warlike scenes there are some
who hold out the idea that an accommodation may soon
take place, and we extract the following from the Gacetu
Mercantil of yesterday.:—
" The Government Minister, St. Carril, and General
Pueyrredon, left this city yesterday for head-quarters, in a
carriage accompanied by a numerous escort. Their going
has given rise to a thousand conjectures, but we knots
nothing positive as to the object of this journey."
May 23.—The papers of this date contain an account
of the attack made by the French squadron on the fleet of
the Republic on the 21st. The Government published a
bulletin in the afternoon, and several flags of truce passed
backwards and forwards.

We have been surprised (says the British Paeket) at
reading in the Government Bulletin the depositions of
some individuals, that the French sailors plunderer' the
captured vessels. Such conduct we should scarcely have
expected from the strict discipline which exists in the
French navy.
On Wednesday morning the 20th, about eleven o'clock,
another Montenero alarm occurred in the city ; but it did
not produce the bustle which, under similar circumstances,
took place on the I I th ult.
An expedition has sailed against Santa Fe, under the
command of Colonel Isaac Thompson. It is stated to
consist of 600 men, and it is thought may induce Gover-
nor Lopez to retreat.
A supplement to the British Packet contains the corres-
pondence between the Government and Viscount Venan-
court, commanding the French squadron in the River Plate.
I❑ the conferences which took place between General
Cruz, on the part of the Republic, and the French Com-
mander, it was agreed,
I. That Viscount Venancourt shall deliver up the cap-
tured vessels, and place them at the disposal of the Go-
vernment of Buenos Ayres, with all the appurtenances,
arms, and crews.
2. That the Government shall not oblige by force any
Frenchman resident in this city to do military duty,
leaving those who are now enrolled in the companies of
militia at full liberty to continue in or leave the service.
3. That the insults which the Viscount supposes to have
been offered to the French flag, and the indemnities which
he thinks to l due to the Freuehmeu by the measures or

the Government, shall be points to be settled between the
two Governments.

After some farther negociations, it was agreed that the
bulletin published by the Government of Buenos Ayres
should be forgotten, and considered as having never been
circulated, and as published at a moment when war
de facto existed between the forces of his most Catholic
Majesty and those of the republic. The vessels to be
given up by Viseount Venancourt, forty-eight hours after
he shall have received the ratification of the additional
stipulations.
Ju eE 9.—The Journal El Tempo states that some ne-
gotiations appear to be going on between the Governor and
Don Juan Manuel Rosas. D. Gregorio Tagle had been
sent to the camp of Rosas, and returned ; but El Tempo
says—We de not know whether we ought to give credit to
the reports which have been generally spread this night.
At any rate we frankly confess that these comings and
goings of some persons to the camp of Roses do not seem to
us the best mode of treating.

The French Papers contain a Circular ad-
dressed by M. DE LA BOURDONNAYE, the new
Minister of the Interior, to the Prefects of De-
partments, in which he remarks that "it is the
firm will of the KING to maintain the public
liberties." He adds that the Government does
not mean to disturb " established situations."
The liberal Journals of Paris are still full of
abuse of the' new Administration.

• Brussels Papers state that during the last
month the Turkish army has lost many men by
the plague, and add their hope that this circum-
stance may induce the SULTAN to listen to the
proposals for peace made by the French and
English Ambassadors at Constantinople. The
same Journals state that the summits of the
Great Balkan are already in the hands of the
Russians ; also that an Austrian army has
marched towards Essnick and Semlin, where it
is for the present to be stationed.

Accounts from Corfu of the 16th July state
that letters have been received from Napoli of
the 7th, that the Russian Charge d'Affaires,
M. BULGARIA, had remitted to CAPO DISTRIA
a million and a half of rubles.

Accounts from the Vistula of the 28th July
say that the Imperial Guards have received orders
to march to the army, and that if the Turks will
not negotiate, the EMPEROR will proceed to the
army in the month of August.

By the American Papers, received this morn-
ing, we learn that a number of mercantile houses
at New Orleans, of the first respectability, have
stopped payment.

A letter received by a merchant at Baltimore
from Lima, dated April, says, " This country is
at present in a most deplorable state ; money has
lately disappeared, and the mines, the only re-
source, are not worked, or likely to be."

A vessel has arrived at New York from Cam-
peachy, after a short passage, with the informa-
tion thavien thousand troops have been assem-
bled to repel the Spanish expedition from the
Havannah :"-
HAVANNAH, JUNE 2S.—The Mexican expedition, con-
sisting of ten thousand men, is to sail on the 4th of July,
for Vera Cruz ; they are hardy, and fine troops, and will
be replaced by fresh men from Spain.

By the French mail this morning letters from
Lisbon state that the news received from the
squadron before Terceira is unfavourable ; a
tempest had taken place which has prevented
the squadron for some time from making an at-
tempt against the above Island.

The commercial letters from Rio Janeiro this
morning state that the exchange there had un-
dergone considerable fluctuation, having been as
low as 23. At the departure of the packet it
had, however, risen to 24-i.

We have Gibraltar Papers this morning to the
26th ult. It appears by the advices from Cadiz
that during the month of June 69 vessels arrived
there from foreign ports, of which 35 were from
Gibraltar.

We have advices of a late date from Sierra
Leone this morning, and we regret to state that
the Colony was very sickly, and several deaths
had occurred among the Europeans.

In the last number of the Caledonian Mer-
cury there is an able article entitled " Political
Injustice," the object of which is to canvass the li
public character of Mr. PEEL, and necessarily, '
by so doing, to defend hit, from the numerous
attacks that have been so unsparingly heaped
upon him by one and all of the Ultra Journals.
Our cotemporary asserts that if there be one
man on earth beyond another who has been
subject to the most undeserved calumnies, it is
Mr. PEEL. On this point we fully agree with
him, though we are not equally convinced of the
necessity of defending him at length. Mr.
PEELstands on such a lofty eminence ;he is so much
looked up to by all the more reputable portion oldie
community ; and by his late high-minded con-
duct with respect to the immortal Catholic Re-
lief Bill, has so fully proved his possession of
those shrewd and enlightened ideas which make
the perfect statesman, that any defence of him
at the present juncture is not merely superfluous
but even injudicious, inasmuch as it implies that
he stands in need of it. Nevertheless, there
desperate Ultras, to whom are, we confess, a few

age has brought neither wisdom ner toleration, who
viewing in Mr. PEEL the enemy of their own
equaint,ttheir exploded, but darling prejudices, have
s
jackalls open-mouthed upon- him, in

the hope, we prestime, that in due time he may be
frightened out of his wits by their howlings.
On such men ail reason, however convincing, is
thrown away. Our Northern Cotemporary,
were he to discuss the case of Mr. PEEL for

months together, were he to put forth proof
after proof, argument after argument in his de-
fence, still his pleading would be merely sound-
ing brass or a tinkling cymbal, and be as com-
pletely lost upon each Ultra " master of the
seven fold face"—as a Damian javelin on the bull-
hides of Ajax.

also the Archimede, Muro, from Sicily.
AUG. 15.—Arrived the Halkin, Ellis, from Faro.
Sailed the Sphynx packet, for the Brazils ; Magnet,
ditto, for Lisbon. Buenos Ayres was closely in-
vested by the Monteneros, and it was fully expected
that the party of Lopez and Rosas would in a very
short time gain the ascendancy, and compel Lavalle
and his supporters to surrender or fly the country.
Trade is at a complete stand. The French squadron
had not destroyed the entire of the flotilla, and it
was considered matters would be accommodated..

signol, and Laut, Le Geyt, from Rio Janeiro.

The Betsey, from Liverpool to Dundalk, and the
Duke of Maryport, were totally wrecked in Dublin
