On the subject of the P.trisian Conspiracy, a letter,
dated " London, 7th July," appears in a respectable
Morning Paper of this day, which the Editor states
to have been received anonymously, and written in
French. The letter endeavours to throw discredit on
the statement communicated by our Correspondent,
and charges the French Minister of Police with hav-
ing fAbricated the tumour and sent it to be inserted,
for the purpose of making it gain credit in France.
We insert the letter, to which, however, we ought, to
add, the Editor of the Paper to which we have
alluded gives, himself, no credit whatever:

" LO DOW, JULY 7.

" Since the conuncr.cement of the French IttAalution, the
Vi:tistry of Police has co...stantly caused to be inserted in foreign
newspapers the lies which it desired should be credited in
Frarce, azd as the letter dated Paris, July t, can have proceeded
jam 1:o other quart,r than that impure source, and can have
been written for no other purpose, allow me to give in your Jour
sal the key of that ill .mous composi_ion.

Tte names of those whom that letter seeks to Intreate as
the chiefs or accomplices in a conspiracy against the person of
the King, carry along with them a refutation of th-t infamous
colutnny, and at the same time demonstrate that no beman re-
xat cal arrest the tr.anctuvres of its authors. Their only end
WM and is to dethrone Me Howse If Bowing, and to ensure the im-
punity of their crimes by calirg in any Usurper of whom they
should be at once the creators and the support. To attain that
(...31 their plan has been to mislead tl:c King's judgment inces-
santly by fabrications of all kinds : to oppose consart obstacles
to the re-estab!ishmcnt of Religion ; to calumniate without ilt.
tcrruption h.+ 11 jesty's most f.dthful Servants; to destroy all
tor.ourabh: vircipleat to sow discord and animosity among the
• French; in a ss ntl, to disorganize all Institutions, to loosen every
tie, and through the grief of sums, the disgust of others, and the
reialortutie of ad, to arrive at that state of general apathy in
which, as all bet cnues indifferent, all nay be attempted. Such
alas! the fatal situation to seLicta they Lave reduced my un-
fortunate ,;ot.ntry."

'laving ourselves received from Paris, and first
published the letter of t?d July to v.hich the above
anonymous svi her alludes, none can better detect the
fallacy of the gratuitous suppositions on which he
founds his observations. The letter did not come
front that impure source," the Ministry of Police,
nor have we the vanity to wish to have it believed
that we are in habits of correspondence with the
French Ministers! Who, we should like to know,
could give credit to such a pretension on our part,
were we to set up such a claim ? No person in his
sound mind—none but some stupid Ultra, or men
of a similar calihte.—Out letter was not alionymous:
it came from a known Correspondent :—a Gentle-
r:An who, though not a Minister, moves in the high-
est sphere ;—a person of u»impeachable veracity.—
Now who ic the person v. ho challenges his veracity ?
An anonymous scribbler—one whom nobody knows,
who if known would prove to be nobody—a
n.mentity in iatellect—an Ultra!
Vie only add, that, whatever hesitation we have
expressed respectiug the absolute accuracy of all the
particulars of the detail, they have been partly re-
moved by this anonymous letter. None but an
f,l!rl, knowing, or bel'eving, the truth of the state..-
ment wi.ich he affects to discredit, could have bad
recourse such an i /igen; Jus way to expose its fallacy.
The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived this morning,
but furnish nothing of importan:e. They still con-
tinue wholly silent as to the alle,;cd conspiracy. The
Funds are again on the rise. On Caturday the 5 per
Cents. rose to 75 fr. and left off at 74. fr. UO c.

Licycsixo SYsTcm.—ln another part of our Paper
will be found a notification of a Meeting un Monday
r"xt, in rc'erence to the late Parliamentary inquiry
v the a
lledged Monopoly in Beer, at produced by
t!,:e Licenqing System.—The cause of the suppression
of the cvideii‘e will then probably be explained.
