FRENCH PAPERS.

The large arrear of French Papers hai been full}

made up by the arrival, this morning, of those from
Sunday•to Wednesday, inclusive.
The elections continue to be decided generally in
favour of the partizans of Government. The De-
partment of the Seine has returned three Members
in this interest, viz. M. M. BONNET; OLIVIRR, and
Ls BRUN ; and only two votes are wanted to have
the fourth on the same side, M. QUATREMERE DR
QUINCY having already polled 992 votes, which is
but two short of the absolute majority required.
The verdict on the extraordinary case of assassina-
tion, of which we gave au abstract on Wednesday
was pronounced on Tuesday. It declares both Cap-
tain Tvlune and Mad. Gralay Not Guilty.
The Sittings of the Spanish Cortes were expected
to close on the 9th instant. The permanent Com-
mittee, which is to watch over the conduct of Minis-
ten s during its prorogation, was appointed on the
Ist of November. It consists of four Spaniards and
three Americans. The estimated deficit on the budget,l
for the current year, amounts to 172,403,033 reads, and
it is proposed to meet it by a loan of 100,000,000 mats.
The credit of the Government Paper, however, is so
law that more than double this sum of nominal debt
will require to be created, in order to cover the exi-
gency. The vales-royaux are at a discount of 66
per cent.

The Lisboa Gazettes to the 28th ult. announce no•
thing extraordinary. The greatest tranquillity reigns
throughout all the provinces of Portugal, and the
Government is entirely occupied in measures of Fi-
nance, and for the speedy Convocation of the Cortes.
The situation of Naples is becoming extremely in-
teresting. The most recent accounts from Vienna
breathe nothing but hostility against it, and July
next is even named as the ultimate period when an
Austrian force will be in occupation of the Neapoli-
tan territory. The army, which is already distribu-
ted along the Po, is stated to amount to 70,000 men,
and a second of 80,000 men is to be formed on the
Adige, to serve as a reserve When the first advances.
The occupation, it is moreover said, will take place
with the concurrence and support of the allies of
Austria—namely, Russia, Prussia, and it is even pre-
tended England. The Congress at Troppau, as our
Readers may be aware, has already assembled, and
commenced deliberations. As yet, the only Sove-
reigns who have appeared there in person are the
Emperorof A orrata. and the Emperor ALEXANDER;
but the King of PRUSSIA is said to be on his way to
join them. Lord STEWART paid the patty an unex-
pected visit on the 28th ultimo; but he remained
only a few hours, and then returned to Vienna.

The hopes of the Neapolitans are derived from two
sources. In the first place, they learn from Vienna
that the money credit of the Austrian Government
sinks daily lower and lower, and that M. ROTHSCHILD
has declared it to be impassible to fulfil the loan of
37 millions of florins which he had contracted to
make good on the Ist of January, 1821, and that the
utmost he can do is to give the National Bank his
engagements at three years' date. 'Money forms the ,
sinews of war, and it remains for the Austrians to'
solve the problem, how they can carry on an of-
fensive war without k.

In the second place, the Neapolitans are among
themselves united, and enthusiastic in the defence of
their national independence ; their frontiers are brist-
ling with the bayonets of a patriot army ; volunteers
are flocking from all parts to sustain the national
standard; and donations of money, arms, and every
other munition of war, are pouring in to Govern-
ment from the more wealthy of the citizens. The
English squadron still remains in the Bay of Naples,
bat under professions of the strictest neutrality.

ALI PACHA still stands out in his citadel of Janina.
Immense batteries are erecting to compel him to
submission.

French 5 per Cents. Tuesday, 77fr. 30c.

An article is inserted in the Journal des Debats,
under the head of Carlsruhe, Bth November, giving
what is said to be a copy of a letter from the Baron
D'ENDE to Mr. VIZARD, our QUEEN'S Solicitor, ez-
plaising More Xully his reasons for refusing to come
over to England. He repeats the pretenceof his health
being very ill—being such as to require " his most se-
rious cares ;" he then pretends to have discovered, in
a speech of Mr.BROUGHAM, something so very. inju-
rious to the memory of the late GRAND DUKE, his
master, that " he would lose all esteem for himself,
if he could lend himself (si je pouvoiS me preter) to a
cause in which they had dared to blacken so unjustly
his late Highness's noble manner of acting r and
he sums up with saying, that at any rate the tes-
timony he could give would not be of that use to
her MAJESTY which it is• supposed. If that testi-
mony could possibly have injured her, who imagines
Baron D'ENDE would have stayed away ?

A letter from Boston, of the 13th Oct. states as
follows:-.-4, Letters have been received from France
and Spain, giving every assurance that the Florida
question, as well as our commercial difficulties with,
France, will be settled on terms of equity and jus-
tice: we certainly should be glad to see these pro..
mises realized. On the night of the 19th August,
a shock of an earthquake was felt at 'Honduras ano.
at Omoa, on the Spanish Main. The shock was more
severely felt at St. Padro: the Church• and several
dwelling-houses were thrown downOtod-several live
were lost: the earth opened in several ewes,
some hills were thrown into the river."
