The state of the Monty Market his, for some days
past' assumed a very pleasing aspect. Bank Stock
rose yesterday 4 per Cent. Upwards of One Million
of Omnium was taken out of the Bank on Tuesday ;
and the little remaining will be taken out to-day and

to-morrow. The Market will then be free from every
incumbrance. The Commissioners forliquidating the.
National Debt, purchase daily One Hundred and Fifty
Thousand Eight Hundred Pounds, Cons. and Red.
The Unclaimed Dividends will be a source of inex-
haustible wealth to the country—se7so,ooo has al-
ready been. aid into the Treasury on that account.
When no demand of Dividend has been made on Stock
fur ten years, the capital will in future be transferred
into the names of the Commissioners, and all the
Dividends due thereon will be immediately invested
in the 3 per cents. in their names. On these grounds,
and as the public may now rest satisfied that Govern.
ment will not require any Loan to wind up the NVar
Accounts, we may anticipate a farther rise in the
Funds at no very remote period.

We have receives the Paris Papers of &Imlay.
The trial of the Conspirators has terminated, and on
Sunday they were thus disposed of by the sentence
of the law, ♦iz. six were acquitted, and of the remain-
ing twenty, three are to be put to death, and the rest
to be severally tr3r.spo:ted and imprisoned for various
periods. Pleignier, who wished to speak to the
KING, and who repeated that wish on receivingsen-
ia among those who are to suffer death. All
of them have three days allowed them in which to
appeal against the sentence. The Gasette de France
thus apostrophizes their conviction :

0 Thus has linislaed a trial, remarkable for the rank
of the guilty. A frightful example of that revolu-
tionary delirium which has overthrown all ranks, and
given rise to every possible crime. Let us hope that
the example will not be lost upon society—that the
perverse and the weak and wicked man, will renounce
projects which are henceforth impossible of accom-
plishment The police watches and will discover all
their plots. Justice is there, and they cannot escape the
sword of the law. It is time that order should be re-
stored, and that the disturbers of the public tranquil-
lity should be punished. We cannot in this complex
affair pay too high an eulogium on the Judges and
the Jury ; and the accused themselves must do ho-
nrige to their impartiality and the way in which the
process has been conducted. In punishing their
crimes, none of the attentions which misfortune re-
quires have been wanting, and they have been allowed
in their defence all the latitude allowed by the law."
The reports in private letters from Paris are very
contradictory, but they should be received with great
caution. It seems pretty plain, that pains are taken
by some men of the revolutionary school, to keep the
public mind in a state of continual ferment, with
reports of every kind that may be calculated to agi-
tate and to excite apprehensions of some approaching
but undefined a ar. Russia is hinted at by sonic as
the object of apprehension, but Alexander has no
troops in or near France, except his contingent of
25,000 men on the Northern itontier, nor is it
to be credited that that monarch can be so blind
as to with again to see France rise in a mass,
once more to agitate and disturb the world.—
Some will have it that France is about to take
an active part in the war against the Algerines.
This is possible, but we do nut think it likely that
this country would seek, in a war with such a ban-
ditti, the co-operation or even the approbation of any
Power whatever. The French rumours are fortified
a little by the circumstance of the King having again
restored SUCHILT to active service, which is said to be
indicative of at least a persuasion on the part of the
French Government, that France may be called upon
to repel some threatened aggression ; but this is all
mere vague speculation : other motives may have in.
duced the recal of Securr. It is necessary that the King
should have an arniy—ii is necessary that it should
be efficient to whatever extent it may be organized.
Many of the best-affected of BoNAPARTI's soldiers
:lave been admitted, a few of the officers have also
been received ; but there are many raw men—many
officers employed, who have never yet seen real ser-
vice—who have even been strangers to France fur
years. Svelter, let it be remembered, did not join
the Usurper on his return to France: is it strange,
then, that he should again be employed, when it is so
necessary that the Royal Army should be rendered
not a nominal but an efficient force ?—The French
Government has denied, through all the Journals,
that the slightest cause exists for apprehending an
approaching war of any kind—and the present state
of Europe is in unison with the statement.
COURT or ASSIZES—SITTINGS OF JULY 7.

Many of the spectators who attended the trial yes-
terday remained all night, others returned very early
in the morning, and the Hall was entirely full, when,
at six o'clock in the morning, the Jury gave in their
verdict. It was read by M. Dll.r►vis, the foreman
Pleignier, C.arbonnean. and Tolleson, were de.
(played Guilty
1. Of having isatadtaij the aims of lam Najaf", by ode,

nada& or committing one or mars sets towards an, attempt
against the life and person of the King.
it. Of Lae Majeste in forming a plot at eool4pirarf against the
Ule or person of the King.
s and 4. Of similar acts against the Royal Flintily.
5 and 6. Of a Plot to change the Government of France, and
exciting the citizens to arm against the Royal Authority.
Charles, Lefranc, Despommiers.Desbaunes, Mrs.
Picard, Henry Oseri, Jacques °sere, Sourdon, Der
cubes d'Lascaux, Gonneau, Bonassier, sen. and jun.
Lebrun, and Philippe, were declared guilty of not
revealing the above conspiracy within twenty fours
after it came to their knowledge.
Charles was also convicted of having printed a
Paper containing direct provocations to overthrow
the Government.

The distribution of the same paper was brought
home to Lefranc, Mrs. Picard, Despommiers-Des.
hinnies, Dervin, Lebrun, Warin, and Lascanx.—
Bonassier, sen. was acquitted from this charge.
Main and Lascaux were acquitted on the charge
'of stealing six bottles of wine.
Prosper Cartier was found guilty of distributing
rallying signals not authorised by the King.
Emanuel ()seri, BellAguet, Dietrich, Lejeune,
Druuot, ,Houzeau, Plauson, and Garnier, were ac-
quitted of all the charges, and set at liberty.
The remaining twenty were then brought forward
by the Bens d'arrues.
Pleigni:a preserved the same character of stupidity
and apathy which he exhibited during the debates ,
Tolleron, Desbauries, Descubes. Sourdon, and sever
ral others, did not change countenance, and appeared
indifferent to all that was passing. Carbonneau and
Mrs. Picard were visibly.affected. Bmassier, senior,
awaited with painful anxiety the decision of the Jury.
The Deputy PaecuKEUR.GENERAL than demanded
the sentence of the law. •

The PULS/DENT. Has any of the accused an
thing to s:ty upon the application of the law ?"

C:irbonncau.—" I atu neither an author nor an
accomplice: I am not suffic:ently acquainted with
the laws to enable me to discuss them. Nevertheless,
I think it can only be the law .respecting seditious
writings which can be applied to me. I have done
nothing lint allowed myself to be seduced and led
away by the insinuations of Pleigr.ier. I copied the
Proclamation, I admit; but this is all. I beseech
you to take into consideration the justice of my cause,
and the m'sfortunes to which my wife and three chil-
dren will be exposed ; for they have no resources if
their father is taken from them."

Sourdon.—,, I wish to see the Legal Code. Ar.
tick 108 excepts those who have revealed before their
arrest."
Cat honneau ...44 I am in the same situation."

The PitEslDENT—(with warmth.) 68 'lle Cuursel
for the criminals ought to have explained tothem the
meaning of the law. There is no exception, except
for those who have reveAled before the commence-
ment of the prosecution."
Sourdon —4' I have never studied the criminal law.
In short, strong in a good conscience, I shall exclaim
with the illustrious Poet :
i.e crime fait la henite, et non pas l'ectieaud.
The crime is the disgrace, and not the scaffold.

Philippe" I am ignorant what ate the ankles of
the law, and I bow to the wisdom of the Tribunal."

Tolleron—(rising with violence.) 66 The law
grants a pardon to those who reveal within twenty-
tour hours after prosecution is commenced, and five
minutes after my arrest, I revealed ail."
The Court returned to the Council Chamber, and
after a new deliberation pronounced its judgment
'about half-past nine.
Pleignier, Cirbonneau, and Tolleron, declared
guilty.of Lese-blajeste, were condemned to die.
The following is the form of the sentence, which
is the same with that for parricide :
66 The criminal shall be led to the place of execu-
tion, in his shirt, bare.footed and the head covered
with a black veil: he shall be exposed on the scaf-
fold, while the officer shall read the sentence of con-
demnation: he shall then have the right hand cut off,
and be immediately afterwards executed."
Charles, Lefranc, Desbaunes, Mrs. Picard, Der-
vin, Lebrun, Warin, and Lascaux, were sentenced
to transportation beyond seas.
Henry Osere, Jacques Osere, Sourdon, Gonnean,
Bonnassier, sen. and jun. Descubes, Lebrun, and
Phillippe, were condemned to imprisonment and pd.
lory, viz. :—Sourdon, Descubes, Gonneau, and Phil-
lippe, to ten years imprisonment ; Henry Osere,
eight years ; Bonnassier, sen. eight, years ; Bosuns.
sier, jun. six years; and Jaques Osere, five years.
Prosper Cartier, for distributing the Cards, was
condemned to five years imprisonment, and 50 francs
of fine.

While sentence was pronouncing, the woman pi.
card fainted.—,4 Ah, my pacr husband !—Alt, how
unfortunate 1 am !"

Pleignier, Csrbonneau, and Tolleron, did sot
change colour.
When the President ordered the gins d'armes to
take away the criminals, Pleignier requested leave
to speak.
The President told him that if he bad any disci°.
sums to make, he would point out the Magistrate to
whom he ought to make them. Pleignier answered,
that he was desirous the public should be informed
of them.

The President, however, did not think be ought to
be indulged, and all withdrew in silence.

When taken into the front lodge of the Concierge.
Carbenneas and Tolleron were stripped of their

T

clothes and dressed in the uniform of the prisons ,
While Carbonneiu was dressing he was perressil
composed : he fek only, he said, for his wife ski
children ; and expressed a hope that the Government
would take pity on them.

Tulleron answered with the greatest calmness, al
even with gaiety, to the various questions wtr,
put to him.
_ _

Pleignier had been separated from his unhappy ac
complices, and still persisted in saying that he Would
speak to the King.

The rumour of an approaching dissolution of Par,
liam d
entcsatnilvlagssaeins ground. Lord PALMIRSTOUe has

circular; and Mr. LOCKHART has gone to Oxford to
secure his constituents there. As it is said the SPEAKCP

Saturday morning the remains of Mrs. Joßnal

By at reference to the Treasury Books, we under.
nand it is ascertained, that Mr. KFAN hss Iro:izilt
more money to the Theatre than was ever dere by

We give this day a Report of a Trial, detaiEng a
chimney-sweeper's cruelty. Englishmen can feel for
foreigners of every description, Blacks and Mulattoes
—how is it they do not feel for their own ? The case
of the poor child that has perished in the fangs of
this unfeeling brute, ought to produce an immediate
Act for the abolition of this species of Torture and
.Slavery, in this country, which, in our overwfoirg
vanity, we call free, and peculiarly endowed and
blessed by • HEAvEN !
A partial reduction of one halfpenny nn the quart
of porter has token place. At Portsmouth beer has
been lowered a penny. The Monopolists who keep
iip the price in the Capital, reduce a mere trifle in
proportion to the duties taken off, but they keep nut of
sight all the great fall in the materials of their mania
facture. The publicans of Hull have reduced the price
of ale to 5.1 per apart ; York p: ice, 4d. per quart.
AN IMPORTANT CAUTION.—Ladies who ate accoi.
nulled to wear their dresses extremely law in the hack
and bosom, or off the shaulders, are particuratly
quested to beware of a person who has for same time
past frequented all places of public amusement, ina
many Ovate parties. He is an elderly gentlernin,
of venerable appearance and correct manners: his
constant practice, when he observes a lady dressed in
the manner above described, is, with an almost im-
perceptible and apparently accidental pressure of
Little instt ument which he carries in his hand, to imprint
the following words upon her hack or shoulders, NaLl,
Lai not ashamed. The stain is like that produced by
'caustic ; washing will not remove it, and it bectirres
more visible by exposure to the air, so that nothing
hut a covering can conceal is. It is said dad severd
ladies were marked last summer at various places •st
fashionable resort, and that they cannot, even now'
strip for company, without displaying this indelible
badge of disgrace.,
Fnautas.—A banking-house in the city has receney
met with considerable losses from the fraildulvet cor..
duct of two of their clerks. One of them, after
ing embezzled to the amount of xl,aace.hatt ti-e
good fortune to escape out of the cauniry. and is suo.
posed to h ice sailed for America. This circa-as:a:l.a
induced the house to be more upon the alert tc::.: •
nizing the balances made up every night by the cis: t.:.
when it was found, a kw nights ago, that the balaaca
understood as correct WAS false, and that the ,ilat c.
about Rl,7f f 0 referred to as in possession of the Loa aa.
had been taken away by the clerk who had g;ven
the false statement. and thereby imposed neon the
rest of his coileaeues. On Tuesday morning, wh-a
the clerks were all at breakfast, the error in the bf-
iance was atmounced, and an immediate inquiry into
the affair was ordered; but before the investigatica
was gone into, the person who had purloired the
money made his escape from the house. An officer
was immediately obtained, and he was instructed tar
search for him, as directed, at the west• end ofthi!
town. The young man was found dangerously ill
bed, having taken a quantity of poison with the
tendon of destroying himself, but which failed ;n
effect. Medical assistance was afforded him, and al-
though he continues seriously indisposed, the prabatoi•
lit; is that he will recover.

In the course of last week a large proportion of

. _ EAT ZNDIA.ZioUsE,:

A Cenertil Court was yesterday conWenedt for 'tilt
purpose of confirming certain alterations whiZh hid
been made in the by-laws of the Company by a Cori:-
mittee specially appointed to 'take into consideration
those laws, and whiz!) had been agreed to at a pre;.
ceding Coon.
the proceedings of the former Meeting having
been read,
The Report of the Committee, containing the al-
terations prpoted by it to be made in the By-laws,
sea% also :cad ; a•KI the question being put seriatim,
they were all unanimously confirmed.
Mr. P. Donna gave notice of a motion which he
should submit at some succeeding CAirt—that in
consideration of the discovery of an error of great
magnitude which had occurred at the hal'iot on the
15th of June, 1815, on the case of Mr. Thomas
Graham, which was unknown at that time either to
the D.rectors or Proprietors, the resolution which
passed in affirmation of that ballot should be re.
scinded.

Mr. R. JacrcsoU moved that the report of the Corn.
ruattee on the Bylaws he printed.
'the CHAIRMAN conceived. that 24 the alterations
which had .been made by the Co.nmittee would of
course be added to the old Bylaws, it would create
confusion it the report were printed separately.
The Hon. b. KINNAIRD supported the Motion.
He thought it was but due to the Committee that
te.er report should be coolly and deliberately consi-
dered by the Prorrit.teirs. In justice to the moti in of
which he was about to give notice, i t the !lament the
Chairman of the Committee on the by•lews, now ale•
sent, that pat of the report which related to it should
t Iraq be eilowed te be printed.
Mr. I'. Moritz dei.reca!ed the idea of going to Par-
lietnent to confirm these by-laws, who would in dist
case take the laws into their own hands, and iegislate
for the Company.
Mr. R. JACKSON said, his object in moving (or the
painting of this report was, ill iir,ter that the general
body of Directors and Proprietors might the better
judge whether it were or were not expedient to only
to Lament. He felt the strongest obiigations .ire
gratitude to the Committee for thew labours ; and on
some future occasion it was his intention to move
thanks to them, if not individuelly, certAitily collete-
rally ; but it was not within the pow er of human In-
tellect in an hour's reading to jnd;;e of the propriety
of grants to the amount of £lO,OOO. The snore diffi-
cult the question was, the reore neees2aiy was it to
comprehend it.
After a few words from the CHAIRMAN and Mr.
L'arrssoN, a division took place; when the titplzt.er
were —For the motion 21 ; against it .36 ; m.ijority
The Hon. D. KINNAIRD, after S0131:' observations,
moved that the supplementary part of the repast be
printed; and as the motion lie Lad previously men-
tioned had a referenc. to it, he now gave notice, its
the name of the Chaim man of the Commitue on the
14-1 ,wt., that it was his inteinion to submit a motion
a, the next special or general Court —tla At an appli-
Calion be made to Parliament for power to realer
