FRENCH PAPER&
We have received the Paris Papers of Wednesday.
There was no meeting of the Deputies on Tuesday,
bat in the Chamber of Peers the project of a Law for
the better suipoit of the Ecclesiastial Establishments,
of France (attd of which ivelsave already given the.
heAds).. Was adopted. Of 146 who were present,
195 voted it* support. The Committee had pre.
.viously made a slight amendment: instead of the
words 66 Ecclesiastical Establishments, legally asp
therired," the words, 66 reeognised by de ging" .were
114okt:tied. This preserves to his MAJISITY all .the
sapreroacy of the Gsllican Church, which the Papal
Jurisdiction admits of. • •
An affecting story is told in these Journals of the
,sofferiligs of a poor Frenchman, who was 94 years a
slave to the Algerines—he was harnessed like a quad.
roped to a cart all day, and slept all night nearly in
the open air, with accommodation not superior to
chit afforded 'to ' the beasts of the field ! 'How
gloyious was the . victory of Lord EX.NIOVTII,
when it put an end to this torrent of human misery !
And yet, within this little month, these very French
Journalists were sneering at the achievement, and
vilifying the gallant hearts who planned and executed
it. ,Let them now make the awes& honorable, and '
•humbly express their thankfulness, to Great Britain
for another deliverance of their enslaved countrymen.
—lt was our prowess which freed them from the
scorching usurpation of &Lamm, giving them
46 Ships, colonies, and commerce." once
,more. It
wai out vigorous arm which set at liberty their cap.
'tives from the ferocious and menden fangs of his
brother despot at Algiers!
CHAMBER OF NIERS:
* SITTINGS OF THE 26TH OF NOVSSISER.

The Chamber opened at two o'clock. The order
of the day called for the report of the Special Com-
mission charged to examine the project of the law re-
lative to donations in favour of Ecclesiastical estab-
lishments. The Report was made by the AIME
MONTSSQUIEU, author of a Report in the Sessioa of
1815, by which the resolution of the present project
originated. He proposed, in the name of the Com-
mission, the adoption ofthe project, except an ansead- '
meat consented to by the Minister, which substitutes
the words oftly by law" is place of the words
a legally authorised." The Chamber odopted the
conclusion of the Report after a short discussion, and
it was ordered to be printed.
Two propositions Were then submitted to the Chun•
ber, the first tending to decide, that in future no
written discourse should be heard by the Chamber,
except the reports of Commission and the propositions
therein made. The object of the 2d wits to cause to
be ordained, that in future the names of Peers who
make their protest in the discussion, shall be written
in the proces-verbal, and may be inserted in the Jour-
nals which give the account of the Sittings of the
Chamber. .

'lle Chamber, after a short consultation, deter-
mined upon the consideration of these propositions.
The Report of the Committee of Petitions was then
read to the Chamber ; out of seven of them six were ,
dismissed as unconstitutional and foreign to the Re-
solutions of the Chamber. One single Petition rela-
tive to the renewal of the Tribunal of Commerce of
Falaise wu referred to the Minister of Justice of the
Interior.

The Chimber adjourned till Saturday next.

An individual delivered from. the slavery of tbe•

Highness the Coast d'Artois to thysiege of Gibral-

,tiins, he was almost constantly harnessed to a cart,
selfering the most dreadful hardships during the day,4
and huddled up in tents at 'night with hundreds of
his companions in misfortune. -It is also remarkable
in the history of this man, who is now 49, that he
was deprived of ail COMllllllialtioll whatever with
the rest of the world, and the intelligence of the
French Revolntion never reached his ears until his
landing at Naples. We may judge what will be his
astonishment when he reads the *history of the last 34
years. This person, who has inspired great interest
wherever he has been, is on his way to Paris, where
he tas a brother named Dumont, still in the service

of 'Monsieur. •
