The French Papers of Wednesday and the Etoile-of
Thuriday have reached us. Extracts from them, relating
to the he ilth of the Emperor of Aurrara,will be found in
a preceding column. It will be seen that his Imperial
MAJESTY'S indisposition was so alarming that the
theatres were shut, public prayers were offered up in
all the churches, arid he received the sacrament on
the 13th inst. 0 r the 14th, however, the Eurzaolt
is said to have been much better.

The Gazette Universe le de / gone, from which some
extracts are given in the Etoile, contains a letter from
S.. Petersburgb, which states that from the moment it
was known that the Duke of WELLINGTON was enmins
armed with unlimited powers, ail political transactions
were suspended, in 0/der to wait f r his arrival before
any decided proceeding was adopted. The same letter
amens that all the enquiries of the Commission ap-
pointed to investigate the causes of the late insurr ctioos
tend to prove that they are not the work of the people
or of the army at large, but of Officers of the Staff, of
sons of great Noblemen, and the pupils of the atiusdte
mies, especially of those of the celebrated Lyceum of
Zarskojeselo, founded in 1811 -A4---socennan, in his
own Palace, to educate Noblemen, and honoured by
his special protection.
The severe cold which has prevailed ia„ Moldavia, and In the
southern part of the Russian Empire, has put an end to all alarms
I about the plague. On the first report of its progress on the basks
of the Danube, the General Commander in Chief in the Mirth
hastily caused some troops to advance, to double the Conlon Serif.
:sire; and as this happened at the same time as the arrests, it gives
rile to all the reports of the invasion which have circulated for this
month past.

WINDSOR, MARCH 24.—Iiis MAJESTY continues
well ; but the very unfavourable state of the weather renders it
prudent for him not to qnit his apartments for the present. He is

reason to hope he will resume his favourite ndes in the Parks.
