FRENCH PAPERS.

At a late hour last night we received the Paris
Papers of Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. The
Monitcur or Monday contains no further details re-
pecting the conspiracy. The Journal de Paris, after
giving the statement of the Afonitcur of Sunday,
which we pubished in our Paper of Wednesday, adds
as follows :

We have but a very few facts to add to those
which the Moniteur has published. All the military
who have been arrested have been plitced at the dis-
posal of the Procureur de Itoi. The judicial/ear/Jetfoil
Las commenced. in these first moments, however,
it may be imagined that prudence as well as justice
requires much reserve in the statements to which
rich serious events may give rise. The number of
military arrested appears hitherto to be twenty-five.
These are all officers to the rank of Captain inclu-
sive, or sub-officers. It is with regret we have learnt
that in this number arc included some officers of the
Second Regiment of the Guards, of that corps so
eminently distinguished by its sentiments of honour
aed fidelity. Thus, no sooner were these perjured
men known, than they were rejected with indignation
by the whole corps; and this circumstance, melan-
choly as it is, only serves to give a new testimony of
the good spirit and loyalty of the Royal Guards.
The luatruction will throw light upon these ma-
elinations, and upon the means of execution pos-
sessed by the authors of the conspiracy. It appears
that they did not dare to confide their projects to the
soldiers whom they hoped to make their instruments.
Their blindness was such, that they thought them-
selves able, by the aid of their influence and of that
of sub-officers devoted to them, to entrap the sol-
c!iers into criminal designs, without incurring the
danger of informing them beforehand. The soldiers
have remained faithful to the voice of honour and
duty. Among the officers who played principal cha-
racters in these m ichinations, may be mentioned a
Captain of the Legion of the North, named Deque-
vauvilliers, who, it is said, served in the Guard of
Murat, when he occupied the throne of Naples; also
a Captain of the Legion of La Meurthe, who has
absconded. Some of these officers were arrested at
their homes, in the city, by the gendarmerie; others
were taken into custody at their barracks, by the
orders of their Colonels, and by the soldiers even of
their own corps.
The Legion of La Meurthe marched from Paris
i good order yesterday morning, to proceed to the
garrison to which it is assigned by the Minister of
War,"

The Coll.-Out:owe/ of Monday says, " All the
I'a:riers of Paris were shut from eleven o'clock on
Saturday night till seven yesterday morning. Since
then the passage has been perfectly free. The gen-
dai me: ie was reinforced at all the posts and stationed
;:t new ones. The Quarter de Reserve of the Oran-
genie du Carousel was occupied by Swiss. It is said
ti.at the Chamber of Peers will be convoked as a
High Court of Justice. The fire broke out at half-
past three on Saturday afternoon in the Salu des Ar-
tificiers, at the Chateau de Vincennes. Some da-
mage was done to the wood-work of the building.
The firemen of the Chateau, and those of Vincennes,
got the fire under at half-past four; no lives were
lost: It is said that the master artificier is arrested."
The following are further extracts :
"PARIS, AUGUST 21.
"The King received yesterday the Princes, Minis-
ters, several Marshals and Lieutenant-Generals, and
a crowd of persons of distinction. The Spanish Am-
bassador was present. At one o'clock the King
skewed himself to the crowd, who were assembled
under the windows. At four his Majesty again
yielded to the wishes and testimonies of love and
respect manifested frem all quarters, by appearing
at the window of his Cabinet. _ _

" For some days past a report has been indus-
ti iot.3ly circulated of the death of Bonaparte. This
rumour came out of the workshops of Liberalism.'
It ):ad for its object to favour the establishment of
a Regency, in proclaiming the son of the Exile of
S.

An agent of the Queen of England is at present
in treaty for purchasing, in the name of her Majesty,
a very large property, Oituated in the Forest of Sc-
na.t, a short distance from Paris. _ _ _

" A pestilential fever prevails at present at Milan,
hich carries off a number of persons, particularly
strangers.
" Some German Journals state, that an English ft i-
gate had brought to Genoa the news of a dreadful
revolution at Constantinople, which the frigate quit-
ted on the 19th ult. The Janissaries and the other
troops are stated to have had sanguinary' combats;
but the intelligence is very vague, and stands in need
of confirmation."

The Journal de Paris of Tuesday last contains the
ftAlowing;

a PARIS, AUGUST 22.

d 4 The King was engaged yesterday afternoon with
the President of the Council of Ministers. The ap-
pearance of the capital for these two days has proved
both the good spirit of the inhabitants, and their per-
fect confidence in the wisdom and prudence of Go-
vernment, The indignation excited by the criminal
attempt of some madmen has not at all interrupted
the public tranquillity, nor the occupations or the
pleasures of the citiiens.
What has chiefly contributed to remove every
disagreeable impression is the presence of the Xing,
respecting whose health perfidious or ridiculous I-a-
mours were circulated, and who by merely showing
himself to the people dispelled all apprehensions,
Notwithstanding exaggerated assertions, we can af-
firm that the number of the criminals is small, that
of the military arrested is not more than 25, all Su-
balterns, or Officers not above the rank of Captain."
