The Marechal de Camp Cambaceres, brother r:
the Ex-Arch-Chancellor, was arrested in the depart
uient of the Seine and Oise, whither he had retitel,
and conducted. to the Abbaye prison in Patis. Hi,
arrest was merely a measure of police and military
discipline. General Cambaceres, whose domicile ;.
at.Carcassonne, was found residing at Versaiilei,
contravention of the order of the Minister at W;,,,
that every disbanded military man should reti t'.
the place of his birth, or of his domicile as 2 citizer.
No other reason, as the entry made in the gatle:'.
book, at the moment of his entrance into the Abbaye,
imports, caused the detention of General Cambace.

LONDON.

MONDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1815.
C 11111111146 Das4—Hollday at the Pubhe Mee.

We have rtceited the Paris Papers of Wednesday
and Thursday last ; they contain mere routine Intel.
igence, but the private letters of the same dates an-
t:ounce that M. LivAutrra has escaped from prison
i female habiliments. It is said that Madame LA.
Aunt Changed clothes with him on the occasion,
nd of course remained behind as a dtteasse to await
it KING'S pleasure. The French Journals do not
sable us to say a word in confirmation or discredit
n this statement : the report reached Brighton yes-
Inlay by the Duke of Wellington packet, from
-)iceppe.

According to our promise we have this day in-
%erted a copy of the pretended 44 Accurate and an-
hentic Detail of the Events that have taken place at
Nismes." From a perusal our Readers will see that
It is precisely of that character which we ascribed to
:t—a tissue of abuse against the Protestants, and a
lamt justification of the Catholics. To follow it
through all its windings would be a useless labour:
It may not be improper, however, briefly to point
out the general sophism which pervades this pro-
duction. It is briefly this :—ln that District the
cause of the BM/Rama had enemies—the Royalists
were opposed by Bonapartist: and in the same Dis-
tricts there were Protestants. Therefore the dis-
affected were all Protestants; and being thus
proved to be anti-royalists, they deserve to be exch..
paced by the loyal adherents of the Bouasosi ! ! !
How lame must that cause be which can support
itself only by such an abuse of common sense ? Let
us sce whit would be the conclusion afforded by a
similar species o!. logic, applied to those districts in
which the Protestants are so few in number as not to
have temples, or even to be known as such. In these
Bolia,PAltra was received with open arms; the
Royalists were maltreated, obliged to hide them-
selves and conceal their principles. In these the
people are Catholics ; all the Catholics are therefore
Anti-Royalists, and deserve te be put to death by
the loyal adherents of tba.AoUltisOns ! ! The Catho-
lics themselves—the defenders of persecution—the
calumniators of the French Protestant, would be the
first to expose such an abuse of all legitimate
reasoning. •

We shall only at present notice one point in the
statement which carries a contradiction on the taco.
of it.-44 The iron band of 805 4PARTE repressed all:
Catholic and Protestant, equally subdued, were at
first united by the common hatred of the Tyrant ;
but this sentiment soon yttlded among the Protestants
to their invincible aversion to the House of Bourbon."
If the Catholics were equally subdued with the Pro-
testants, could it be more criminal in the latter than
the former to be carried away with the stream ? But
which current gives character to the torrent i... The
little brcok or the sweeping river ? the feeble Dissent-
ing minority, or the overwhelming orthodox Catholic
majority? If the Catholics were not the majority,
even now when the Protestants are left unprotected,
we doubt much if they could have wound up their
courage to attack them.—But the Protestants have
an invincible aversion to the Efiurbost"..." they became
sealons partizan; of she Usurper." So say their eaemies.
Assertions are easily made. Such charges will need
other plod; than any lurnishid by the detail. It
promised authentic particulars, and for these it pours
birth unsupported calumnies. These charges, how-
ever, call lot tit other recollections. How many
reasons have the P:otestants to love the Bourbons
Alas! alas ! they have every season to curse them,
were it allowed to Christians to curse their enemies.
On the other hand (for we shall give the devil his
due) Bonaparte gave them many reasons to bless him
—he gave them the same protection in kind and
degree which he gave to his other subjects. Who
dared to persecute a Catholic in France on account
of his religiun during Bonaparte's reign ? Who
dared then to persecute a Protestant for his religious,
opinions ? No one. There is riot a single instance
known of one of them suffering for his faith, during
the reign of Bonaparte.—How many suffered on that
account during the reign of the Bourbons kfors
How many have been maltreated, robbed, nay, mur-
dered rime, under the reign of a Borba; I
Kings, however, cannot prevent crimes—they can
only punish them. '!'rue.. How many then of these
murderers have been brought to justice ? Not one!!!
Ytt the Protestants should love the BOURBONS.—
Mitme, shame on such jargon. Subjecti can only
love their Sovereigns for benefits—for protection re.
ceived from them. If the BOUUMONS seek the sup-
port of good men, let them act so as to deserve, and,
they will be sure to obtain it. If they shall acts
otherwise, they will sooner or later find, that all the
power of all the Kings of the earth cannot keep them
on the throne.

We have great pleasure in recording that the exam

pose of taking into aonsidsration the present state of!
the persecuted Protestants in the South of France,
when several Resolutions were passed, expressive of
their sympathy and regret. and also of their confident
hopes that his Majestep Government would remit no
exertions in favour of thti sufferers. The Reverend
JAMES COLLINS was unanimously called to the Chair ;
afterthe information was read which had been received

Mr. MINCIIIN expressed, in common with every one
present, his concern at the cruel scenes of pillage 4qd
assassination which had, taken place in the South of
France. He said he did not consider the present as
a meeting foe the discussion of any political question,
but merely of morality and philanthropy, yet when
he reflected that Protestant armies and Protestant va-
lour had been the means of replacing the House of
BOURBON on the throne of its ancestors, there was
certainly something anomalous in the present perse-
cution of the Protestants in that country. • He could
not but call to mind the time when persecuted Popish
Priests sought and found an asylum here, and that
this nation did suppott and did succour them whilst
in this country. He considered that in the trans-
actions of this evening, they were only raising
their voices to sanction what the Government
were desirous of. He said he could not refrain
from giving credit to the Ministers of his Majesty's
Government, for the very liberal answer which had
been given by them to the deputation which had
waited on them ; and expressed his fervent wish that
they would never relax, until, according to the recent
Charter of France, •• full and free protection of reli-
gious worship was granted to all its inhabitants."—
( 4/0/aum.)—Mr. MINCHIN was followed by other
Gentlemen; and the sympathy which pervaded the
Meeting was such as to do honour to its feelings.

almost univetsally entertained at the commencement
of this ti: culeau match, of the possibility of erect-
ing it. During the performance of the task also,
repos is were circulated injurious to the character and
exertions of Eaton. The following affidavit, how-
ever, was made at the Mansion House, on Saturday :

spected by Major-General GORDON.
Saturday the 23d Light Dragoons marched into
Southampton to the Depot at Weymouth.
The division of the 66th (Colonel Dooom's Regi.
ment) which embarked at Portsmouth for St. Helena,
have nut yet sailed. They are waiting for a wind, as
are also the remainder of the Regiment for ships from

transports, bringing over detachments of the 12th,
36th, and 73d Regiments of Foot : also 'arrived the
Trafalgar and Vane, horse ships, with 52 horses and.
180 men of the 23d Light Dragoons. The Chiches-
ter, Captain Rurrart, Dover packet, has come in
with the loss of her mast and other damage. She was
bound over with the mail and passengers-
DECESISER 24.—Arrived from Calais, the Boston
packet, and Catharine and Union transports, with
detachments of the 12th, 32d, and 3341 Foot. The
Union not carrying sufficient sail to cross the tide at
the harbour's mouth, had the misfortune to fall to the
back of the East Pier Head, where the sea made a
compleat breach over her, but luckily it was a falling
tide. Captain RAM, the Agent for Transports, was
immediately upon the alert to save life, which be
effected with that promptitude so conspicuously
marked in his character on all occasions. A rope
and two other ladders were instantly got by his direc-
tion, and Let over the Pier wall, by which means the
men ascended with safety. The Harbour Master
manned his boat, and went round the Head to the
vessel, bringing back with him a boat load of women.
About 20 persons were saved by boats, and upwards
of 100 by the ladders, and we here cannot help re-
commending very strongly to the Trustees of Rams-
gate Harbour to see that laddLfs are provided for
such unhappy occasions, and hooks fixed on different
parts of their pier-wall to suspend them from ; the lad-
ders used on this emergency were picked up where
they could be fortunately met with. The Union was
frill of water—she has been scuttled, as she lays on
the sand, and the sto:es taken out of her. Arrived,
likewise with infantry, several Dover passage vessels,
hired on height to bring the troops home. We ate'
sorry to learn that upwards of fifty horses, belonging
to the 23d Light Dragoons, have perished on the
passage, though a short one—it appears many of the
Ises broke aJrilt in the night, owing to the tempes-
tuous weather, when carrying others with them, they
were all lost. Piles of dead horses are now lying in
the bacon, which have been got out of differeut ves-
sels—it is a melancholy sight.

MURDER OF MR. BAKER.—The Irish Papers, re-
ceived this morning, afford strong grounds to hope
that the perpetrators of this atrocious deed have at
length been seized. Three of the villains have been
committed to Clonmell jail. On Friday se'nnight,
a man who applied to the Officer commanding at
Waterford, to enlist for foreign service, having excited
some suspicion, a strict examination was instituted,
io the course of which he ackaowledged that he was
present when the murder was perpetrated, and gave
information of three persons who committed this
atrocious act. Mr. WRIGHT, the gaoler of Water-
ford, set off next morning, and at Clonmell he
received the assistance of an escort of Dragoons.—
Thus supported, he went to the house of the men
accused, who resided on the Fair Green of Cashel,
about a quarter of a mile from .the town, and took
them privmers in the dead of the night. They were se-
cured in separate places, and on Sunday were lodged
in the Gaol of Clonniel. One of them (Mulcahy),
on his being seized, appeared greatly agitated. One
of these men has five children, and the other seven.
A minute search was made for arms, but none were
found.
