The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived this morning.
The following are extracts :

PARIS, OCTOBER M.

We learn by letters from the frontier* 'of Spain,
which come down to the 22d instant, that the state
of health in Catalonia is most satisfying. Fears were
entertained that an artilleryman, discovered at Bar-
celona, had recently deserted from Cadiz ; ut it has
been ascertained that this soldier had deserted from
Seville anterior to the manifestation of the con-
tagion. He has been discharged from the Lazaretto,
and reconducted to his corps, iu order to be tried for
the simple fact of desertion.
It is denied at Barcelona, that there is any truth
in the report that Arcos has been taken violent pos-
session of by some troops of the Expeditionary Army.
The communications between the provinces of Ca-
talonia, Valencia, and Aragon, continue uninterrupted.

, reproved, in
strong terms,
,the departure froui the laws in which
the Governments had indulged, and this was sue.
dent to obtain for the author a dungeon, in a fortress!
His Letter to a Parisian Jouraalist speaks the language
of a man conscious of his.integrity and his honour-
able intentions, and is "evity way such as a man in
misfortune may with propriety write to a former ad-
versary. We shall here insert it at length:

" TO THE EDITOR OF THE CONSTITUTIONNEL
" SrsAssusc, OcTona. 25, 1819.

" Sea—The French Papers have occupied themselves of late
with the persecution which I have been subjected to on account
of my work, Germany and the Recolution—.4nd I have to express
my satisfaction with the honourable manner in which all of them,
either in writing or in remaining silent, have acted towards me
on this occasion Seeing myself arbitrarily deprived of the bene-
fits of the Civil Law, I felt myself obliged to throw myself ander
the protection cf the Law of Nations, not to oppose authority
which I respect, but to put it on an impossibility for its own in-
I wrest, of proceeding otherwise in this cause than by legal means.
Yes, during the war, I frequently and forcibly _raised my voice
against France but in this I followed the dictates of duty and
honour t I should even have fought with arms in my hands, if
an occasion had presented itself; but in decoding the liberty,
the honour, and independence of my country against a foreign
yoke, I never forgot what man owes to man. After the pas-
sage of the Allies, when the Russian Police first, and tits
Prussian Police afterwards, brought from twenty to -thinly
French emplayis to Dresden and Wetdar, as suspected per-
-1
sons, these men and their families, through a confidence
which was flattering to one, applied in preference to me, though
they were not ignorant of my political opinions, and I procured
for them, from the Governor-General of that town, not merely

their liberty, but assistance to several of them to return to their
own coulitry. I now claim the same hospitality, not as a fa-
tour, which would be incompatible with my -honour, but as a
right. Even the Bedouin exercises this hospitality towards his
enemy ; and surely it ought to be a law for civilized Emcee, in
times full of trouble, party rage, revolutions, and unexpected
changes, in which no writer, no statesman, ever has any car-
minty, that what he grants to-day may not be claimed for him-
self to-morrow. " GOERRES."

The Hamburgh Mail of this morning has brought
us a copy of the Cabinet Order of his PRPSSIAN
MAJESTY for the arrest of Mr. Goznass. It is as
follows :

" To Lieutenant-Governor Von Hann, or the Minister
of State Vox Ixoseeasaiet.

" The guilt of Professor Goerres, who, in his pamphlet
• Germany and the Itepottaites; has not abstained, though enjoying,
fromahe liberality of the State, a pension of 1800 dollars, from
insulting his own and foreign Governments, by the most dive•
spectful expressions ; and, under the appearance of warning against
revolution and illegal violence, and advising peace, endeavours to
inilanse the' People, by the most insolent censure of the meuures
of their Governments, is so evident, that I hereby order you to
have all his papers sequestrated, and sent hither sealed, to the 1111-
ulster Von Schuckmann. " FREDERICK WILLIAM.
" Berlin, Sept. 700, 11119."
Such has been the reward of the Continental Go-
vernments to those true Pat' jots, who, by their per-
severance and energy, wound up the public spirit of
the People to that point which ensured unanimity
and co-operation; in the virtuous sacrifices rendered
necessary, for the expulsion of a ruthless and merci-
less invader ; and which ensured victory and eman-
cipation from the thraldom in which their respective
Governments were involved ! Yes-:-this is the Li-
berty of the Press—this the Representative Govern-
ments, that were promised to their respective sub-

1 jects I Infatuated Rulers I Do you think the nature

of man is charged ? That ambition, working in the
breast of neighbouring Governments, will never more

i
render it necessary for you to sue for the support of 1

your People—to entreat that the trumpets of the
many-tongued Angel, the all-powerful Press, May
once more sound the love OF country and of inde-
pendence in your invaded territories ?—You will
find, when too late, how miserably you have miscal-
culated the resources of your Holy Allisnce.—i, Holy
Alliance" indeed ! Impious profanation !.--When
again invaded.z—for invaded you will be ; when fear
and terror press upon you CAI all sides, to whom will
you next apply,•for support and succour? To your
Feudal Courtiers ? To your Ultra-legitimates ?--.1
They could not save you when you last wanted their
aid.—To your people, your subjects, your staves
You may, indeed, call to them, but they will not an-
swer :—or, if they do, it will be with scorn and with
execration.

A Hamburgh Mail arrived this forenoon, with
Papers to the 29th ult. We 'subjoin, among other
extracts, an article from Bagdad, respecting some in-
tended operations of our own in the East, which is
particularly deserving of notice :
