Lail night we received Paris journals of the Bth
infant. They contain an account of tome recent
proceedings of the Government of the Italian Re-
public, which to fume of our Readers will prove
interefting. The fpeech of the Pon at the Secret
Confiftory, refpeaing the Costadat, will alto be
thought curious. .

Private letters from Paris !late that the Kelso of
Emma has Am deporsd ad ceifiged, by order if the
Itytessy sf Alma, asiacopabk of:eventing ; and that
this revolution is fuppofed to have been phoned in
the ThuMeries. We know not bat degree of
credit is due to this intelligence. Some time ago
it wqrjbee remembered that the Mistimesr inferted
an strode of thong cenfure onthe Kim° of Erau-
eta, for being fo Prieft-ridden. No doubt the
French rulers will endeavour to direst his ETILV-
tan BICIPTT to more liberal fentiments and mea-
forest but, tall we have further accounts, we can
' hardly believe they will (*end or depofe him.
M. Moursaar, the CoMmercial Commiffioner
from the French Republic to our Government, ar•
rived hit Wednefday in London. We underfland
that he is charged with fpecial powers to bring to
a fatisfadory adjuliment fome points of mutual
traffic between the two countries, which have been
the fubjea of difcuffion.

nary COnlitiory on the 24th of this month, in
which he made public all the objets relating to
the Church of France, as well as the nomination

On Afcenfion day he pronounced a fpeech, and
he himfelf celebrated Mafs in the church of the
Grand Bafilica of St. John, gave a benediftion to
the people, and ckanted a Ts Dom, to return
thanks for the re-eftablifhment of religion in
France. After alluding to the Concordat, and Rat-
ing what had been lone by NAPOLLONIBONAPARTIII
for the re-eftablifkment of the Catholic Religion in
France, he adverted to the good which had thence
refulted to the Church, and Paid, _ s

" Our joy, however, venerable brethren, is not
of fuck a nature that no objea occurs to excite our
folicitude and our care, as our duty requires.
64 We, however, flatter ourfelves that we are
freed from our folicitude by the wifdom and the
mislay of dm Fsof amid, and of the Freath Naive,
which has dekrved fo will of our religion for fo
many centuries, and which again embraces is
with fo much eagernefs. We °Verve that, along
with the Concordat, there have been publifhed
other articles of which we had no knowledge, and
which, according to the trace of oar predecfbrs we
:anon' but fakir that they may receive modifica-
tions, and the proper and necefrary changes.
se We (hall earnefily addrefs ourfelves to the
FIRST CONSUL to obtain it of hit refigios. We have
a reafonable ground of hope for it both from him
and from the wifdom of the French nation, for the
French government in re.eftablithing the Catholic
religion in the bofom of France, and in acknow-
ledging the holinefs and advantage of it, cannot
refute that every thing which the holy conflitution
of the re-4.11)111W religion requires (hould be
can ied into execution,ana that ;very thing fhould
er.aElly agree with that falntary difcipline which
has been fixed by the Laws of the Church.
44 May GOD remove from us, and never permit
that any view of temporal advantage or define of
poffering what does not belong to the Church,
fhould occupy us, or the Patton whom JESUS
CHRIST has fubjeaed to our authority. Let us al-
ways have before our eyes thefe divine words :
Gem to &VAR lAD MOW to GAM, and to GOD
what Idea's to Cioo. In this we (hall alwas ferve
as an example to others, and we (hall take care
that the Bithops and all thole who labour in the
vineyard of the Loan, agreeably to the vocation
with which they are called, &all attach themfelves,
in their convafation and behaviour, to the duties
of religion."
His liolinefs received the congratulations of
the Cardinals, who were pleated on this occafion
to proclaim him the Rellorer of the Church, and
who confider what has been done as the greaten
ye nt that ever took place in modern times.

THE• MHO T. SPVILINO.

The Learned Couto-el who led the saute Rated,
that ibis was an indiftment preferred against the
defendant, who was a Gentl.man of Fortune and
a Magistrate of the county of am for a grofs as-
fault ; and it was no frnall agoavation of the of-
fence that it arofe not of a code which ought, and
was about to be fettled before a Domellic Tribu-
ne', namely, by arbitration. The defendant, Mr.
Sperling. was proprietor of the great tythes of the
pain of Tottenham, and let a leak of them to the
r:orleasor, Mr. James Wyburd. Some difputes

t. o. the Sth of June. Mr. Wyburd was tak•
.• an e.,riy umming's wall., and in a lane in I'.,t-
-teoliam he chanced to meet the defendant, Mr.
Sperling; at 6111 he withed to avoid him. but the
defendant overtook him, and entered into a conver-
fation refireaing the arbitration. After it had'
continued tome time. it ended in a remark from
Mr. W. that Spurling was a (haling fort of a gem,
tleman. if he wilted to withdraw from the arbi-
tration. This was the whole of the provocation,
and upon this the defendant fell upon the profecu-
tor, and beat him with a Aid he held in his hand,
in a moil violent manner.
Mr. James Wyhurd, the profectitor, was then
called, and gave the above account of the tranf-
aftion, producing the hat which he wore on that
day, and which was cut through the btim.
Mr. ERSIIIIIr admitted hts Client had been
guilty of the affault. and Paid he mull be found'
guilty ; but the matter might as well have been
tried at &Arm, and not removed hither by Certio-
rari, which was done by the profeeutor merely to
enhance the tolls. He alfo advifed Mr. W. if he
was in the habit of utin fuck fort of language, to
provide 'limier
