A most extraordinary report has been circulated
this morning on 'Change, but we know not on what
authority. It is said the Commissioners, who have
purchased A:97,000 per day for the reduction of the
National Debt, will shut their box, and not make any
more purchases for some time to come. Consols for
thb Account opened at 74, but the market was very
heavy, and but little business doing.

The Paris Papers of Thursday arrived yesilrday.
The preceding day the KING heard Mass in bis apart-
ments, and afterwards presided
fes,ia Clo,ncil of his
Ministers.

The Monileur contains a Royal Ordinance, ditect-
ing that, before the 15th of next month, the Prefects
of the Departments shall appolin Juries, each con-
sisting of seven manufacturers, who are to return',
lists of those who have, during the last ten years,'
most effectually contributed to the improvement of

machinery, or manufactures. Out of the said lists,
the Minister of the Interior is to make a selection of
those who may be considered most entitled to such
rewards as his MAJESTY may be pleased to confer.
The ,rewards will be distributed at the same time
with the premiums which may be decreed for the
productions of French industry, at the next exhibition.

At two o'clock on Wednesday, a deputation from
the Chamber of Peers was introduced to his MA-
JESTY by the Duke of BELLUNO, who presented the
Law adopted in the Setting of Monday for opening
throughout the provinces auxiikry Books to thegrand
Book of the Public Debt.
The discussion of the Bill relative to the Press com-
menced in the Chamber of Deputies on Wednesday.
As two of the Members who had entered their names
as advocates for the measure, were abseit, the fur-
ther discussion of it was adjourned until next day.—
The opposition to it by M. LA isrm de VlLLxvanvx,
and M. CONSTANT, was directed not against the prin-
ciple of the Bill, but against certain clauses repre-
sented to be superfluous, 'vague, or too severe. The
latter also suggested amendments for supplying what
he conceived to be omissions in the project presented
by the Ministers.

A list is published in the official paper of 800 indivi-
duals belonging to Bog*Plumes Grand Army in the
Russian camgaign, whose fate is still unknown ; which
number added to the 5.5 similar lists previously pub-
blished, makes an aggregate of 12,000 persons, re-
specting whom no information has been obtained.--
The statement that the Kum had referred the petition
of the widow of Marshal Bituvz to the Royal Court
of Paris, is contradicted.

The Grand Duke MICHAZI• arrived at Rome on
the 28th ult. and next day he had an audience of the
POPE, who received him with•great distinction. The,
same day his Holiness held a Secret Conistori; at
which an ataisiive claical promotion

' Four Cardinals had been aerated to receive the Em-
peror of AUSTRIA. on the frontier of the palimony of
St. Peter, and 18 Cardinals were appointed to receive
his MAJESTY on his entering Rome by the gate del
Populo. The Emperor had signified hif intention of
putting the Pontifical Court to no expense during his
visit ; but his Holiness persisted in setting apart a
lsum of 800,000 scudi to defi4y the disbursements of
his MAJESTY and his retinue. In consequence of the
different meetings held in various parts of Hesse
Darmstadt, to present Petitions to the Government,
having appointed permanent Committees, the Grand
Duke has issued an Edict prohibiting the holding of
such Meetings in future without permission from the
public authorities. In Georgia, the winter has been
the severest experienced within the memory of the
oldest inhabitants, A great number of cattle had
perished in consequence ogthe extreme cold, and
much damage was done to the vines and fruit-trees.
The plague is said to have got the length of Grcif-
fenberg, in Silesia, introduced, it. is supposed, by a
bag of cotton from Smyrna. Many persons, it is
stated, have already become its victims.
A shock of an earthquake was felt at Rome on the
26th of February. Its direction was from S.E. to N.E.
Two violent shocks of earthquake were felt at
Teflis in the night of the 29th of January, but with-
out any other injurious effects than the destruction of
a few old houses. The Turkish Government persists
in its determination to bring the subjects of the Chris-
tian Powers, charged with offences within its terri-
tory, to trial before its own Courts of Justice,
The 5 per cents. left off on Wednesday, at 67f. 25c.
PRIVATE LETTER.

" PARIS, APRIL 15.

" Yesterday M. BENJAMIN DE CONSTANT made,
on the Project respecting the offences of the Press,
what may be considered his maiden speech. Full of
argument and sound constitutional learning, his speech
excited the liveliest testimonials of approbation even
from those who profess principles diametrically op-
posed to his. Such is in fact, the force of truth when
eloquently expressed, that even its enemies for the
.moment forget their prejudices, and render it an in-
voluntary homage, the homage of conviction. By
way of prcemium, M. de CONSTANT settled a very int.
portant and generally much mistaken poiot—' Let us
not accuse,' says he, the Ministers of any _vicious
laws contrary to the Constitution ; it is not the Minis-
ter who makes the law, he only proposes it, it is we
who render his proposition bad or good, a law of the
State ; hence if bad laws are made, we have none to
blame but ourselves: it is not the Government, it is
the two Chambers who are to blame, and those alone.
—lf a person propose to yon to, go and rob a house,
or set fire to a town, he is criminal in idea it is true,
but unless that criminal idea be carried into action
no harm is done; hence on carrying it into action
you are the real and efficient tause and perpetrator
Of the crime : let us then be true to ourselves ; let us
weigh with prudence, and without either passion or
prejudice, what projects may be presented to us. If
they are conducive to the welfare of the State and
the happiness of individuals, let us prove ourselves
.to be animated by no other sentiment than our duty
to the State and our Constituents, which in fact ought
Ito be inseparable ; for the one cannot be injured with-
out the other feeling a sympathetic wound. If we
hate presented to us any law which possesses not the
character of benefit to the State and the Nation, let
us be unanimous in rejecting it. If it possess some
good and useful points, let us separate the wheat
from the chaff. In this latter category the present
law appears to stand.'---His analysis of the law being
printed in all the Journals, I forbear to give it.
" It is certain that the law cannot pass unless ma-
terially changed.. A storm is brewing; but, as it is
foreseen and its elements known, it is not feared."

We have received German and Brussels Papers to
the 16th instant, brought by the Flanders Mail of
this morning. By the Packer that brought this
Mail have arrived the Doctor, Surgeon, and Con-
fessor, with two servants, all from Rome, who are
to proceed from this country to the residence of Be-
NAPARTE. The following are extracts from these
Journals :

BRUSSELS, APRIL 13.

The Court of Assizes of South Brabant will try,
towards the end of this mouth, the persons accused
of a plot against his Majesty the Emperor of Russia,
which was to have been carried into execution in the
month of November last. On the other hand, the
Court of Assizes of the Department of the Seine,
sitting at Paris, will begin on the 10th of May the
trial of Cantillon and Marinet, accused of having
designed to take away the life of the Duke of Wel-
lington. These two criminal causes are highly inte-
resting to Belgium, since the dreadful plots were
formed in its bosom. The proceedings in these two
affairs will clear up what is still obscure in the de-
tails of these Horrible designs.

APRIL 14.—His Majesty the King, and his Royal
Highness Prince Frederick, are expected here [his
evening. It is affirmed that a revised project of a
law relative to the duty proposed upon sugar and
coffee, and against which so many remonstrances
have been made, will be presented to the Second
Chamber of the States-General, in the name of his
Majesty.

The Duke and Duchess of Kent proceeded to-day
