le The rumours which had been spread cencen.i
Murat, do not appear to he -confirme,i it i, v,
possible that it was only a trick of the Police in or
to see the effect of it on the public, aril U 3 to
acquainted with the opinion of s. me pt:num.
" A journil (I: Courier) was. yesteiday tt
pressed for having said two things which ate LIP,.
to all Europe (in the paper of the 2:id Octo::ei
one, that the Emperor of Austria has given t)
grandson the regiment of Halms, left without
Commander, by the death of the Count de Me
feldt ; the other, that Carnet is an honest man.
" The famous law has passed in the CKimber
Deputies by a great majnrity which was expected.
The discussion which it Five rise to was quite
curious as the law itself : • it was made a crime t'
D'Argenson to have said that there were maw(
in the South ; this fact has, however, '1 en proved
several Proclamations and Acts of the Governau.:
Some persons believe that this law will not so ea
pass the Chamber of Peers : this is not probable,
two Chambers appe.r willing to proceed in the sat.
manner. The Chamber of Representatives, the spi
of which is now well known, will not lose time; :
already busied with another Liw agamst seditir
cries, wt icings and speeches, and Al uita is only ws
the prevutai Courts arc re.estibiis:)ed. How happi
it that it is necessary to resort to such severe in
sures, wen it is repeated every moment that'
are only directed against a very weak minority
It appears that the conditions of the Treaty
not yet agrees: upon. New d mands, it is saiJ.
made daily, and perhaps nothing will be tied
before the Congress, which it is probable will be
at Basle.

" AlthotTli the law which places the portilati'l
France at the athitrary disposal of its Governme-
has pAsse.! the House of Representatives, it was '
without consiierable opposition, at least as t-
rnod.f (it iti execution. As the !Ayr now sum is,
as it was ori4taaiiy proposed, every poi 1;c t fficer
the power ot arrestin;: any individual, ..n I ot k era
him imp:lolled as lung is the law 01,
until the next Sessions shall have prof( ngc.l its
ration.
" M. Royer Collard proposed to rcitrict the

ciae of this dangerous po.ver to the Minis.ers of
and the Preleets of the Departments. Several M.
bers proposed amendments to the same effect;
when the previous question was put upon M. It.'
amendment, the numbers appeared
SO cowl, th
President put the question a socond time. and
declared the previous question carried. It iSI
observed, that the mode of voting wag by the
standing up, and then the Noes. Tile division I
takes place as in our Houses, but in case of dt
' the question should IN aecided by ballot.
46 Me d'Argenson wished for a previon• ;no
into the necl/4-ssity of the law ; but having alludes!
the repotted massacre of the Protestants in the S
h.• was imme liately called to order, and obliged
tuptly to terminate bis speech.
doth the Mittibters of the Interior and P,

supported the measure by continual reference in
suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act in Eng
and the twiner, having introLuced the name o:
king, the galleries, crowded with men and wnmo
mostly supplied with their admissions from the
vernment blronbers, loudly joined in the aril
of the Hous.., which thus rather resembled el tf:
than a senate.

The Paris Papers of Thursday arrived yesterday.
On the preceding day the Chamber of Peers seems to
have been pt iced in rather a disagreeable dilemma
by an indiscreet motion proposing to vote the thanks
of the Chamber to the Duke d'ANootmEsic for his
conduct in the South. '•lf the Chamber be really in-
dependent, such a motion, if persisted in, could not
have failed to !sting into discussion the entire Tres.
tion of the persecutions 'of which the Protestants in
the South so loudly complain. One thing is plain.
The Protestants had not been effectually protected.
The Court we think acted wisely in preventing so
ill-timed a discussion ; for which purpose the Count
d'Anrots attended thu sitting, and moved the Order
of the Day.

On the same day the proposed law for arresting
such persons as endanger the safety of the State by
treasonable speeches or acts, was presented from the
other Chamber. The discussion was deferred till the
next sitting.

The private letters still speak of great discontents :
nor can we doubt that those whose career of rapine
has been checked will grumble at the change that
has taken place. But there are other complaints :
while great p4iLs are taken to punish stiliii6us eufires-
this:, it does not appear that as yet any effectual
means have been adiipted to punish the murders per-
petrated in the south, on the pretext of putting down
sedition, but in fact to gratify private revenge and as
an act of homage to the Ministers of a superstitious
religion.

Since our last a Mad film Holland has arrived.
The Dutch Papers inform us, that the Netherlands
are destined to have an 46 iron•bound" frontier on the
side of France. A line of fortresses is therefore to be
erected, at an immeuse expense, as checkmates to
Lille, Valenciennes, &c. How much simpler, and
how much More decisive of the future repose of
Europe, would it not 'titre been, to have blown up
'very French fortress, as fast as they fell into the
hands of the Allies ?

The Trench inhabitants and peatantry in the North
now shew much discontent at the burden of support.
ing the Allied troops.
The King of PIieSSIA has arrived at Berlin, where
of course he has been received with great joy.,

A Maii from Jamaica arrived this morning'. it
has brought us some interesting details from Sparrii:h
America.

It appears that the expedition under General Mn-.
HILL° had arrived at Carthagena, and came to off
Point C mon on the 19th August, and that the troops
were disembarking. The Governor of Carthagena
was determine,: to resist to the last extremity. The
Popa m%ts Itartilic,l, and had a garrison of V. 50 picked
men. Gyneral I'at..scro lad sent information of his
approach with 1211() men from Majanquel to assist in
the defence of the city.

" CARTMAGENA, AUGUST 17.

Morillo's squadron are discovered from the
heights. He is landing his troops. but as the heavy
seasons are set in, it will be impossible for him to
approach this with cannon. He cannot have more
than 6000 men, and with that force, or even double,
he cannot succeed. I feel confident at the result,
shoz:ld he have the temerity to attack the place, as
every preparation has been made."
