NAPLES, JULY 19.
It is feared, that, without an army for. debartaifort,
it dill not he possible to reduce the Regency of Al-
giers, the most dangerous of the clue., Barbary Rnen-
,cies. The Dey will care very little for the destruction of
the houses of the town, which belong to the Jews and
Moors, while he and his Turks can secure their trea-
sures in their country-houies, .which certainly have
nothing to fear 'from the English roclets and bombs.
It is even doubted whether the Congreve rockets
will hive any considerable ;allot/Ice no the houses of
Algiers, as they are built of stone with fl it roofs, on
which a layer of damp earth may be spread in suffi-
cient quantity to counteract the effect of any infirm-
in-ible projectile. The D,ey has also nothing to fear
ftom any small corps of troops, however brave, which
In.iy be l .nded, as the Ban and Arriere Din of the
Itegency are called out. AU the Scheiks or Lords
of the Moorish villages, and other Chiefs of the Arab
tribes, are crowding to the neighbourhood of Algiers
with an immense number of light cavalry, to which
the Beys of blascata, Constantine,• and others, join
some regular troops. This-mass of soldiers, who,
though un.lisciplined, are animated by fanaticism,
and sb ho will have to combat for their homes, is not
entirely destitute of artillery, nor of men capable of
directing it. The issue of the English ezpedition is,
therefore, a matter of sufficient doubt to render it an
object of earnest attention.,

All the private letters from Paris agree ht stating
the opposition of sentiment which prevails among
those who rule, or wish to rule, over the French
nation. All the friends of the Minister of War con-
cur in saying that the nominations to the place of
Inspector-General of Cavalry were made against his
will. The first report of the Generals named has, it
is said, caused such violent indignation, that the Ad.
ministration have not dared as yet to publish the list.
It has even been supposed that the article in the
Jonrnal des Debts, announcing the nomination of
thirty Inspectors-General, with other details, was sent
from the Police, in order that the whole article might
be officially contradicted without entering into details.
The majority of the Ministry not having been able to
persuade the KING to renew one-fifth of the Assembly,
ate now trying to put off its meeting till the 3d of No-
vember, that they may profit by the delay to make one
more attempt to decide the KING in favour of their plan.
The grand question of the Liberty of the Press is
decided negatively. The Duc de FELTRE, the
Chancellor D'Astaaav, the Minister of Marine (Dt:-
Boccuaoe) voted for the liberty of the press, with

the corrective of the continuation of the Loi der vo
pats. Rinds teneatir 1 LAME argued frankly for the
abolition of this latter law, and that containing re.
strictions on the press Ds CAM as frankly for main-
taining them both in their existing state. His MA-
JZSTY was of the opinion of his Minister of Police;
and the Council of State separated. In submitting,
in the present instance, to the will of his Sovereign.
M. LAINE expressly declared his intention of consci-
entiously fulfilling his duty as Deputy. it is said,
the KING an this occasion expressed his unwill:ngness
to change the Prefects obnoxious to M. LAINI; and
added, he was induced to believe that this Minister
would be more contented with them henceforth. The
nomination of M. PIPIN Di Batista to the Prefecture
of La Vendee affords him some consolation. This
Magistrate had been displaced by M. VAUBLANC , his
redintegration is the triumph of the constitutional
party.
It is certain M. LASSE off:red, on Thursday week,
his resignation of office. This the litso declined ac-
cepting. The immediate cause ii generally believed
to be the displeasure of MONSIEUR (yr the part that
Minister took in the Ordinance his Manny promul-
gated on the National Guard. It is l.kewise affirmed,
that the opening of the Session of the Chamber will
be prorogued, in consequence of financial difficulties,
for the meeting of which no adequate remedy has
been hitherto proposed. M. LAYITTI (of the house
of Perrigaux) was consulted by the Council of Minis-
ters on the means of establishing a public credit : he

observed, that to effect this system a security on ter-
ritorial property was indispensable; that the different
denominations of national and patrimonial estates
should exist no longer. In fact, although the pro-
duce and revenues are equal, the value is essentially
different; the former being unsaleable, or to be di:.
posed of only at an immense loss, unmortgageable,
and even not to be divided ; he insists on the plan of
issabousiti e ; and maintains, that without them no
financial operation can possibly succeed.
It is said that a constitutional Minister was main-
taining, in the presence of a Royal Duke, the neces-
sity of putting" an end tb all future vengeance and
re•action—could one but trust them, replied his High-
ness. Piazza, observed the lrnister, affirms that
the leaguers, once the inveterate enemies of your in•
comparable ancestor, HURT IV. proved themselves,
in several succeeding combats, the most intrepid of
his detonates ; bat in none more notoriously than at

dis Utile barna Antler's, after 'ihe *gpinlitrits •tma
taktii that town. No one .can forget the meek and
almost apostolic answer of that model of Sovereigns•
when his Court exhorted him to sevrrity r—as laM a
shepherd sing, who will wit shed the blood of my
subjects, but must rather seek to bring them unto
Otte by the *ay of mildnus." Hereupon the conver-
sation was interrupted.

• this morning we received the Paris Papers of
Wednesday, from which we have subjoined extracts
of every Thing deserving of notice. It appeacs by
accounts in these journals, that Spanish maritime
commerce contimies to be much impeded
.by South
American privateets. No less than eight of these"
have been for some tint: cmiz;ng off the harbour of
Cadiz ! This new system, adopted by the Inde-
pendents, wilt have a great influence on the future
progress of the contest. The Mother Country must
provide for the protecti:m of her own shores before
she indulge mach in sending fresh reinforceosents.to
her consumptive army in the westc:n heruisphere.
These Papers, excepting, details of crimes and ac-
cidents, present but littl.t novelty. The Duke and
Duchess d'ANoot:LLme are seeking popularity in
eirery quarter. The manoeuvres re.futtd to lir this
end will amuse stvne of our Readers.
The case of libel which we mentioned a few days
since, and in which one BIENNAIT complained of
poor Author for saying he was one of the assassins of
the Princess de LAMBALLEI has terminated. This
13trantare did not appear to be the most immaculate
character in the world, and the Jury only gave him
25 francs (Ws.) as damages. The evidence upon
'which BARIUM!. published the libel, was that of BID/.
WAIT'S own son, who said he had heard his father
glory in being a party to the above most atrocious
transaction. In a subsequent case, in which the
KING appeared as prosecutor, &stmt.!. was fined
300 francs (about ser2), because in the same publi.
cation he had accused Louts XVIII. of culpable re-
missness in not making public examples of such as
BIENNAIT.

COURIER EXTRAORDINARY or WEDNZSVAY MORNING.
Yesterday, before mass, the Sardinian and Btiti.h
Ambassadors were introduced to a pr.ivate audience
of the King,-to present letters from their respective
Sovereigns. The letter from the King of Sardinia
wai to congratulate his Majesty on the nuptials of
the Duke de Berti ; and the letter from the Prince
Regent of England, announced the marriage of the
Princess Mary.

A melancholy event took place cm the 29th of July
in the Commune of Lineiti (Dzpartment of the
Allier). A thunder stcrrn burst on the burn of M.
Bord.tt, the Mayor, when the barn, which contained
twelve loads of hay, with the stable, containing thir-
teen head of cattle, and a woman, were consumed
by the fire occasioned by the li:,:htning.
A frightful c:ime has been committed at Corrnpet,
near Nlontmirail : M. Plrmeoticr, the Curate of the
Pariah, and his servant, hate been assassinated. The
assassins seem to have killed their victims with a stick
and a bayonet. They are as yet undiscovered, al-
thouzli three suspicious persons were leen wandering
in the neighbourhood in the evening.
