The dying embers of the Bnnapartean faction seem
again to have been slightly resuscitated at Paris, by a
singular manoeuvre. Some three years ago, it will be
remembered, that the son of LAB CAsts arrived in
London, for the purpose of provoking Sir HUDSON
Lowe to fight a duel. This young man was then about
21 years of age, and Lad been admitted to the degree
of Advocate at the Frer.ch Bar a few weeks before.—
He was a slight stripling, of an agreeable appearance,
prepossessing manners, and not without considerable
talents. We have reason to believe that his own views
were simply directed to ihe fame and glory he should
afterwards attain among his countrymen, by engaging
in mortal combat with so distinguished an Officer as
Sir HUDSON Lows.

Full of this chivalrous and idle notion, he had pro-
a idea- himself with capital Manton pistols, hair,
tiiggers, &c. and had previously made himself a res.-
tunably complete adept in their application, never once
doubting that Sir HUDSON Lowa would accept his car-
tel, and give him the meeting.
This not being the case, young LAS CASES Com-
mitted a brutal assault on that gallant Officer, and then
took to his heels, while some of his accomplices, pre-1
%iamb, posted in the way, favoured his escape at the
moment, and finally conveyed him out of tke reach of.
English law.
That Sir HUDSON LowE should have now visited
France, where the rancorous hatred of the Bonapartists

'might seem likely to pursue him, is matter of surprise,l
and only proves his own manly contempt of personal
danger. But the particular F0:1 of revenge which ap-
peals to have been plotted against him is curious
enough. No sooner was k known that he was at Paris,
than pretended assassins are set on young LAS CASES,
who is stabbed (through the coat only, we presume) in
passing towards Passy, through the Champs Elysees.
The police are alarmed—examinations are taken by
the Commissarie, and then it is pornpoesly put forth,
that Sir HUDSON Lowe had suddenly quitted Paris, for
London—thereby insinuating that he had come to Paris
only for the purpose of taking off the redoubted lawyer
LAS CASES !

It is new stated in the node, that Sir IluosoN left
Paris on Tuesday last for Vienna, from thence intending
to proceed, by way of Constantinople, to the Island of
Ceylon, of which he is appointed Governor! This in-
telligence is, we believe, as new to our Cabinet as it
is to us.

Frankfort P•l•ers to the 15th instant reached us this
morning. One of them announces the arrival in that city of Major
General Baron Von Laminators, President of the Military Com-
mittee of the German Confederation, from Vienna, after a lung
absence. It is supposed that the formal transfer of the fortresses of
Mayence and Luxemburg, to the German Confederation, will
shortly be made to Commissioners appointed by the Confederation
jor the purpose.

This forenoon we received Rio de Janeiro Rims to
the Ist of Oct. and Buenos Ayres Papers to the 7th of September.
The latter contain the Speech of the PARSIDIINT of the four Provinces
of Upper Peru, on the opeaing of the Assembly of Deputies, which
is unimportant. 4
Letters from Monte Video, of the 14th of September, state, that
a decisive advantage had been gained by the Imperial forces in that
quarter, which will in all probability determine the contest, for the
present at least, in favour of Brazil. A corps of Brazilian troops
consisting of 1,000 men, had arrived at Monte Video on the 14th,
from Mercedos, after having completely destroyed the vanguard
of the Independents, under Faticruoso Mania. which had
occupied a position for the purpose of intercepting Balms MA-.
ay et., the Commander of the Brazilian division. This misfor-
tune to the Independents was the greater, inasmuch as the soldiers
under RIBIRA were considered those in whom the greatest depend-
ence was to be placed. General Lenox was in Monte Video,
with about 2,000 men under his command, which force he was
about to march into the interior, with the view, as he confidently
anticipated, of putting the finsl blow to the struggle.
The Papers from Rio Janeiro are entirely silent on these events,
but they do not contain any recent news from Monte Video.

The ilio Janeiro Papers. are principally filled with speculations
on the advantages likely to acme to Brazil from the recognition of
its inalepecdence by Portugal.
The Senada de Camara had presented an address of congratulation
to the Estrum' on this event.

The only allusion to Monte Video is, that the last accounts give
reason to hope that it will soon enjoy the sante peace as the rest
of the empire.
Ills Majesty, by a Decree, has ordered that the Deputies to the
future Legislative Assembly, who have already arrived, or shall
arrive in future, shall receive, from the day of their arrival, a
monthly sum of 100 milrees.

The French Papers of Friday and Saturday have
reached us. It appears that the Poet has transmitted a communi-
cation to the Court of Madrid, stating in substance, that unless the
late Spanish Colonies are again speedily reduced to subjection, his
Holiness will, in defence of the interests of Religion, be compelled
to give canonical institution to the Bishops nominated by the new
authorities. By the statement of the Doak, the Pors is represented
td have urged " his Catholic M.sszszv to make effective exertions to
bring back his colonies under his dominion." Some of the other papers
contain an article in the same terms; but the Courier Francais gives a
different and more probable version of the application, and adds,
" In such an emergency, his Holiness announces that he shall
shortly be under the necessity, for the good of the faithful, and the
interests of the Catholic Apostolic Roman Church, to recognize
the Bishops chosen by the dissident Governments, and to give
them canonical institution." The Pore has also withdrawn his
consent to the re-establishment of the Inquisition in Spain. The
Consultative Junta still exists, though it appears, by the private
correspondence from Madrid, that reports were confidently cir.
culatoti that it would be suppressed immediately.
