2el Letter from Paris, elated (*Li.

'' All the accounts which are received relative to the Mini-
sterial revolution which has taken place in the Cabinet of
Madrid, prove that it is the triumph of the party des Serviles
ov,r a party distinguished by its wisdom and moderation. It
is cmartned, that the intrigue was in a great measure plan-
tied ley la Cauterilla, or domestic interference, sPh:ch enjoys,
as is well known, so much influence in the Palace of Fer-
dinand.

" According to some, this political revolution has some
affinity will) what happened to Cardinal de Richelieu, in the
time of Louis XIII. on La purnc'e des dupes. Others assert,
that this event only took place in favour of English policy.
Neither of these two conjectures has any foundation.
" However, the brit effect at Paris, which resulted from
the event in Madrid, was the interruption of the conferences
respecting the important affair of the mediation between
Spain and Portugal. The Duke de Fernan-Nunez will na-
turall, wait fur fresh instructions.

" Earl liarrowby, Lord President of the Council, who ha,
been for some days past in Paris, set off yesterday for Lou-
d,m. It was. remarked, that during his stay in our capital,
his ImrdsLip frequently received visits from his Royal High -
t4ets Monsieur.

" NI. Pozio di forgo, who was expected to set off to-day,
the Ist of October, is still in Paris. Many persons are asto-
nished at this del❑y, and begin to think that this Minister
will not go to the Congress.
" The I)uke de lliehelieu's first courier arrived here yes-
terday evening, to announce his Excellency's entrance into
Aix-1:t-Chindle. The Emperor Alexander was expected to
Knave Mere on the i'9t It nit.

" KEW PALACE, OCT. 6.

" The symptoms of the Chll3EN'3 Complaint
continue much the same as yesterday, though her
INIAJEsTY has had several hours' sleep in the

night."

(No Signature.)

We received last night the Paris Papers of Fri-
day last. Tilose of Saturday, %vhich were due

this morning, have not art ived. Their contents
arc of very little importance ; the accounts they
give front Aix la-Chapelle contain no fact what.
ever that has not already been sta'ed.

The Duke of RAGtYsA, it seems, did not arrive
on the Ist instant from Chatillon-sur-Seine, to
take his tort) of service as Major-General of the
Royal Guaids, and the Duke de REGGto there-
fore continutd to act in that capacity at the
Palace.

A private Letter from Madrid gives some fur-
ther details respecting the dismissal of the three
Ministers, but there is no new fact of importance,
except a s►atement that the new Minister for
Foreign Affairs had announced to the Foreign
Ambassadors that the change had reference to the
affairs of Spain only, and that it would have no
influence on the political system adopted and hi-
therto followed by the Spanish Government with
respect to other Powers,

This morning we received Quebec Papers to the
20th August. The following is from The Quebec
Mercury of Aug. 18 :
" The National intelligencer of the 24th tilt. says,
that 16,000 dollars have
.been transmitted to the
Intian Agent to remunerate the friendly Indians
for the losses sustained in the attack upon the
Olithavli village ; and that this sum would abua-

dantly pay them for all losses, as there was a con-
siderable number of lives sacrificed, and more or
less property destroyed, at the time of that abo-
minable massacre. We should like to know what
proportion of the above is appropriated to each
object ? We have never heard exactly the amount
at which an Indian is apprised on the Southern
ir
frontier, nor have we ever l en informed wheMier
they are estimated individually according to per-
sonal merit and distinction, among their own
Countrymen, or whether they are taken by the
drove, as our West India Shippers used to
sell their horses on deck. If we recollect right
there were nine or ten Indians killed, and pro-
bably there may have been five thousand dollars'
worth of property destroyed. if, in the course of
adjusting this outrage, the Indians should fix the
price of their butchered countrymen low (say 500
dollars a-piece), it may perhaps lend to a conclu-
sion that this will be the cheapest mode of clear-
ing the land. In that case, Capt. ABED WRIC;FIT'S
friends may take possession of the rich land
which these savages are possessed of, and which,
according to the civilized maxim, is too good fur
Indians."

The Letters from Quebec received this morn-
ing state the Harvest to be in a most flattering
state, and an immense crop %vat fully expected.

Extract of a letter from an Officer on board his
Majeity's ship Cherub, off the Havanna, Cuba,
West Indies, dited August 21 :—" We have just
captured a valuable Spanish ship for a breech of
the late Treaty on the Slave Trade, and have just
received orders to take her to Sierra Leone, and
therefore are not likely to be in England before

next yeAr.''

The Morning Chronicle of this day, with its
usual illiberality, raerring to the account of the
alledged cause of the unexpected change in the
Spanish Ministry, viz. the advice of our Ambas-
sador, Sir HENRY WELLESLEY, in a frank Expose
submitted to the King of Spain, says, '' the Go-
vernMent Papers" put forth this statement, though
it knows fuli well that the iutehligeuce was exclu-
sively confined to THE SUN of Saturday last, and
114'83 received immediately front a respectable
source of intelligence at Paris. We cannot ac-
count for the despicable spleen which The Morn-
ing Chronicle spews towards this Paper, unless
because we detect its artifices, and expose its so-
phistry, in a manner which it cannot answer.
Hamburg!) Papers to Thursday last arrived last
night. The following are extracts :

ST.PETeßshuftax., SEPT. 12.—T0 complete the Russian
army and navy, a levy of recruits is ordered throughout the
whole Empire, in the proportion of two recruits from every
500 males. Instead of recruits a sum of money will be ac-
cepted.
STocKnoLm, StPr. 22.—The King and the Crown Prince
left Oro:Abel:11.0n the 12th of this mouth, and are expected
back here this evening.

People are here full of the adventure of a peasant in East
Guthland, who, being employed in fishing in the river Staeng,
drew out an eel, •which had fast entwined itself round a gold
crown, richly set with jewels. This crown is of ancient work-
manship; it is at pi esent supposed that it belonged to King
Segisniond, and that it was lost in the above-named river on
the retreat after the battle of Staengebro, in 1595, which
cost him the Swedish crown.

'ftie peasant is 00 Ins way hither with his precious relic, to
present it to the
LOWER ELae, SEpr. 28.—The Barbary Govern:uents are
again beginning to make considerable armaniebts to exercise
their piracies.

Meat► time a plan is carrying on to overturn the Govern-
ment of Tunis by means of a descendant of a certaia Aly
Bey, who was taken and beheaded by the Algei ines in
1757, when they conquered Tunis. The Pretender affirms
that he has friends in the neighbouring States, who only
%sait for his arrival to receive him with open aims, and
to place him on the Throne of his fathers. He has al-
ready gone to put the affair in traits ; 2000 Turks and a
numerous bay of Arab cavalry, commanded by the
Agas and the Bvy of Cunstantina, are shortly to join him.
It is well known that peace and friendship have lung subsisted
between Algiers and Tunis, and the latter Government has
dune all it Could to preserve the goodwill of the Dey of Al-
giers by presents. Nevertheless the Algerines enter the Tu-
nisian territory :is enemies, without a previous declaration of
war. The plague has at length abated its ravages. The
mortality is now from five to eight persons daily. The Dey,
whose mildness is still praised, is going to send an Ambassador
to London, " to tie still closer the bonds of friendship at
present subsisting with Great Britain, and probably to re-
quest the neutrality of Great Britain in the new piracies
which are intended."

The PRINCE REGENT, we hear, did not return
to town till eight o'clock this morning.
The Grand Duke MICHAEL left town this day
for Dover, on his return for Russia, thoutzh pro-
bably first Irq• Aix-la-Chapelle. His train, &c. con-
sisted of four carriages. His Highness was ac-
companied by Sir WILLIAM CONGREVE.
00 Sunday the Grand Duke MICHAEL took
leave of the PRINCE REGENT, the Doke of NvoRK,
mid the Duke of SUSsEX, and yesterday visited
several of the Cabinet Ministers and persons of
distinction, previous to his departure 'from this
country.
On S.,turday, three superb portable rooms were
shipped at the Custom-house, for Aix-la-Chapelle.
They are for the use of Sir THOMAS LAWRENCE,
while taking the portraits of the Sovereigns. Lord
CASTLEREAGH has allowed the use of his garden
for their erection. The large room is 50 feet by
18, and the others 20 Ly 18, and 18 by V.:.

.1n f 1 ITOTITESiSof the POLES of this GLOBE ,

By Adwiral Sir CHARLES HEMLY KNOWLES, Bart.

If the Poles Of this Globe have not earth at
their pgiuts (I), there must be at each an immense
whirlpool of water, ocCaSioued by the Diurnal.
Revolution of the Globe. This seems reqUisite
to counteract the masses of ice found arottod
Vortices, and much of this ice be crushed to
atoms by the rotary motion of the whirlpools
and the reaction of the water in its distaair ascent
will produce a (2) current to force the ice (as
now happens) in a direction southerly trorn the
North Pole, and in a llort belly 'direction from the
South Pole, when aided by solar (3) heat in the
prevuntion of frost. This may be the case : be_
cause it is apparent every where. that destruction
and reproduction are requisite to constitute the

changes on this globe : aml a similar renovatim
must take place at the Poles, as iu the other parts
Our Globe flies through space in is orbit ; bui
this probably dues not counteract the effects of it:

diurnal motion at the (4) Poles, nor impede the
roglesSion of physical causes (5).

(I) If there was land, the ice could never be detached
from them but by a convulsion of Nature, and which dues
not appear to he likely to be alternate at each Pole.
(2) A current runs front the Polar Basin into the Atlantic
Octan, from Norway to America; but there is no proof of
any current rufwin4 to the northward through Beering's
Straits, because that great unto, Captain Cook, met with
none but a barrier of ice, which ice came from the Polar
and Wa, jiuuiaed there. Ifa current rtill to the north-

ward ruder this-barrier of ice, when the ice was broke up by
the viiiient gales of wind in February and March, the force
of such a stream would have raised it to the surface and driven
the ice to the north, and Captain Cook would have had a clear
sea to sail tin (igh : bat the coqtrary happened, and pre-
vented his success. Neither Captains Cook or King met with
any current on the N W. coast of America, nor Monsieur de
la Perouse on the coast of Asia, or betiveen Segallel/ Island
and the Main, setting to the northward, but a bank of mud
across (too shoal for the boats to pass over) to the south of
the River Amor; and which bank of mud could not have
formed, diad there been a current. As the Polar Basin is not
supplied by a current mining through Beering's Strait from
the North Pacific Ocean, the current from the Polar Basin in
every direction must proceed trim some other cause, mid that
cause !oust he the Diurnal Motion of the Globe. Perhaps it
will ultimately be discovered that Europe, Asia and America
do not extend to the north of 73. of latitude.

(3) In the absence of the sun, the severity of the frost
may be such as to lessen the power of I tie whirlpool, which
will act with its full force when the frost ceases by the return
of the sun.

(4) The motion at the Poles is slow, arid the velocity great
at the Equator; and this is the same in a whirlpool, for the
motion is contaurnicated from the circumference to the apex,
which has the least motion; as a whirlpool screws downwards.
This is the reverse in a whirlwind on land, and a water-spout
at sea ; where motion is communicated from the centre to the
circumference, and screws upwards. On any other theory,
the water could nut descend in a whirlpool, our ascend in a
*water spout on laud in a whirlwind.

(4) The diurnal ►notion of the globe, from west to east, is
the occasion of time trade winds in the Atlantic Ocean,
and also of the current of water which runs within the tropics
from the coast of Africa to the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico,
and thence by the shores of Florida, through that Gulf to the
northward, and past the Banks of Newfoundland, until op-
posed by the Current from the polar basin, when it takes a
direction eastward. If the diurnal motion acts on the water
at the equator by velocity: it will also act at the poles by a
counter effect.

* Water-spouts are said to be conical and cylindrical;
but though they may at first appear the latter, they soon as-
sume a conical form, and become the frustrum of a cone ;
the smaller part downwards: and this smaller part varies in
size from 200 yards or more, to twelve feet diameter: and a
point only when sometimes forming in fine weather. But in
the larger ones, the point (it is to be presumed) is below the
surface of the water, and the quantity of water' raised in a
given time must be in a ratio to the depth of the apex. The
influence ,if water-spouts roust extend much below the sur-
face, as numbers of fish are taken up by them: and which
fall (runs the clouds far inland.
