EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM EDINBURGH, DATED
AUGUST 5.

Paocuaeua-Gltiort.e.—Wbom ?
Witness—After a moment's silenoe—the fourth on the second
bench (Canizy).
Paocuacua-Grancitat.(keenly).—lt is he (c'est so).
Caviar to the Paocuazu R-G ENItILS.L.-410W, Sir, do you say
eat co? -You thereby point me out to the witness.
Paocuazua-GaNzawe.—l don't point you out; the witness
pointed you out himself.
Catam—lle said he doubted; you affirm—(Noise).
The PIMIDINT.—The witness said, I doubt that I recognize
one of them now, in that phrase, and in the language of the
country, to doubt signifies to believe.
The Parsinasiv told Canizy to stand up. Confronted with
Fernay, the latter was not certain that Canizy was in his house.
" It is melancholy for us," says M. ANTONIN, one of the
Counsel for the accused, " to see the continual interruptions
which this defence affords. Every illegal means to destroy, or to
weaken by odious suspicions, all that could be favourable to the
accused, is found in this case. A number of questions on our
part have been prevented from the same reason."

One of the Papers contains the Act of Accusation
in the affair of the conspiracy at Rochelle. France
will thus be entertained with three simultaneous trials
of three sets of conspirators—namely, those of Bel-
fort,
of Saumur, and Rochelle. In eaLh of them we
may say literally that a host of witnesses is to be
examined. If the 'petty insurrections to which they
refer had acquired as great a number of adherents
as there are witnesses, there might have been consi-
derable danger.—The following are extracts :
4 4 A letter from Poictiers, of the Ist instant, gives
the following details :—The opening of the Court of
Assizes at Poictiers, for the trial of General Berton,
is still fixed for the 26th of August. The public Mi-
nistry have summoned one hundred and seventy-one
witnesses for the prosecutic n.
The majority of the accused not being able hi-
therto to obtain the Advocates of their choice, whom
they would wish to take in part from the Paris bar,
Counsel has been assigned them by the Court. The
latter cannot enter the prison but by the permission
of the Plocureur-General, which permission must be
examined by the Commandant of the garrison, and
afterwards by the General Commandant of the de-
partment. This pass is only good for once. It has
to be renewed whenever the Counsel have to commu-
nicate with their clients ; and these formalities re-
quire time. They cannot see the accused but through
two grated doors, and in the presence of the turnkey.
The grates of the doors are so distant from each other,
that it is necessary to speak very loud to be heard.
A complaint has been made on this subject to the
Procureur•Genetal, who has referred the matter to
the Prefect : his answer is expected.
" The Anti de la Charie, of Nantes, recites acts of
violence which the Swiss soldiers and subalterns have
been guilty of towards the citizens in the environs of
Loguidi. These acts appear so grave, that without
doubt they will excite the attention of Government,
and lead to judicialy proceedings against their per-
petrators. Not only were women insulted and citizens
provoked, but M. Fefevre was severely wounded,
and the house of an inhabitant, in which he had taken
refuge, could not protect him from the fairy of those
who had assailed him with arms in their hands."

This forenoon we received a German Mail, bring-
ing Frankfort Papers to the 2d inst. They contain
some interesting intelligence respecting Greece. The
following are extracts :

64 I do not know what effect the presence of the
KING may have upon us, but the very anticipatit.n
of it has made us joyous almost to intoxication; the
people think of nothing else, they talk of nothing el'e,
and their whole labour appears devoted to sonie c,b-
ject connected with the Royal visit. The public pie-
parations for the Royal reception are nearly com-
pleted. The decayed walls upon the Bass Rock hare
been repaired, in order to place a few pieces of cannt,n
for the purpose of firing a royal salute when the KiNG
enters the Frith of Forth. The discharge of a r ckct
is expected to announce the moment when his M.
JESTY touches the soil of old Scotia; and a flag-staff
forty feet high will bear the royal standard on the
Bass Rack during the stay of our beloved Sovereign.

for an illumination, which will be genet al.
