FRENCH PAPERS.

PARIS, SEPT. 1.
A revolt on the part of the felons condemned to the
gallies for life, at Toulon, has long since been appre-
hended, and measures had been taken to suppress it, if
it broke out. On the Vld ult. at noon, at the moment
that those of diem who were employed upOn the ground
of Mourillon were entering a shed under which they
repose during susperision from labour, one of them,
with a cutting instrument, struck the setjeant of the
guard, who, finding himself attacked, drew his sword,
and stretched the felon who had wounded him dead at
his feet. This was the signal for revolt. They all
rushed upon the guards, who, to defence, fired upon the
assailants. M. Reynaud, Commissary of Marine, bas-
t nred to the spot, and order was promptly restored. In
this unfortunate circumstance, sixteen of the galley-
slaves were killed, and several wounded.
The King of Prussia, according to custom, has avoided
the homages of his natal anniversary. He went to the
Isle des Paons, at the confluence of the Spree and Havel,
near Potsdam. It is a delightful retreat, iu the midst
of our plains of sand, where there is a superb collection
of flowers, particularly of roses. The King, who much
enjoys himself there, has lately embellished it by pur-
chasing, for 30,000 crowns, a new collection of roses
and exotic plants. It is also the favourite retreat of the,
Princess Royal, daughter of the King of Bavaria.
There will be three camps crezercise this autumn : in
Silesia, near Breslau; in Prussia, near Konisberg; and
in Pomerania. The troops of the garrison and Royal
Guard of Berlin will also manoeuvre in the vicinity of
that capital.
Tere are two remarkable things in the measure
which we announced in our last Number, viz. the crea-
tion of a Minister for Ecclesiastical Affairs, and the
choice of the Prelate appointed to this high function;
both merit the gratitude of the Clergy. The formation
of a special Ministry for Ecclesiastical Affairs has long
been earnestly desired by the friends of religion, and
may lead to results of the highest importance to the
Church of France.

The plague has appeared at Ator in the lonian Islands.
Tile High Commissioner has re-established the sanatory
hw s previously in force, in all their •igour.

gigantic plan of giving to an Germany a new organization, by
establishing there the Unitarian system. Details of this affair are
eagerly expected."

A private letter is said to have been received in the
City from Lisbon, stating that the King of PORTUGAL
has resqlved to recognize the independence of Brazil,
on conditions which it is expected will not be objected to.

This forenoon we received Lisbon Gazettes to the 22d

t'n the ridiculous reports that are spread by certain
alartnists in Lisbon, who are not inaptly called " Poli-
