FRENCH 'PAPERS.

ASSASSINATION OF THE DUKE DE BERRY.

The Paris Papers of Monday, received this morn-
ing, bring intelligence which our Readers will peruse
Kith horror.—The Duke de BERRY, HeirPrestimp-
tive to the French Throne, has lost his life by the
dagger of. an assassin! On Sunday night, as his
Royal Highness was coining out of the Opera
with the Duchess leaning on his arm,. he received
a deep wound in the side from the hand of a
dastardly wretch, who had been for four years
meditating 'the perpetration of the crime. The
DUKE uttered a loud cry, and fell senseless to the
ground. He was immediately conveyed into one
of the rooms of the Opera, where every aid which
professional skill could administer was applied. It
was at first thought that the wound was not mortal,
but this hope, we lament to say, proved unfounded.
His Highness was removed to the Louvre, and at six
o'clock next morning he breathed his last.
All Paris, as may well be supposed, was plunged
in affliction and alarm. The assassin endeavoured
to effect his escape, but was stopped in his flight,
and is. now in custody, to await the punishment of
his atrocioas deed. Ile proves to be an obscure per-
son, of the name of Leuvet, who was employed about
the King's stables, and, according to one account,
formerly belonged to the Household of BONAPARTE,
while at Elba, and during the Hundred Days.
The Duchess of 3EIUTT is, for the third time, in
a state of pregnancy ; and, admitting the supposition
that the assassination may have had some connection
M kb political views, it. would seem that the Duchess
had been made the witness to her husband's death.
in tLe hoi:c That so treznendous a shock might bring
on an uni.imely delivery, and cut off the last possi-
bility of her giving a succession, in the direct line,
to the throne of the Botntsoss. Her Highness was
coveied all over with the blond which gushed from
her husband's wound ; and, from the moment that
the blow was struck, till he breathed his last, did
not leave him for an instant.

The agony of her feelmgs, in so trying a situation,
may be more easily irnained than described. The
Duchess, as our Ruaders may be aware, has already
given two cia,lghter to the House of llußigoN, of
whom one is living ; but, according to the Salic Law,
cannot succeed to the Tnrone.
In the subjoined extracts our Readers will find all
the particulars respecting this melancholy event,
which have, as yet, transpired through the Public
Journals :

arms, were seen following the seditious party, com-
mitting disorders. These individuals are insensible

of the laws, and, to make them respected, I order:
" That there shall not be a meeting of more than
three persons ip any public place; exceeding this
number, they shall be dispersed by force. No per-
son, of either sex, shall stop ih the cabarets, under
the pretext of thinking, and shall depart as soon as
they have made their purchases. All tables and
benches found there shall be removed. All the
coffee-houses shall be shut at nightfall ; no person
shall be suffered to remain within them, and the Pro.
prietors shall be responsible for the non-observance of
this measure, which shall.be equally observed in the
Gaming-houses established by permission.
" It is farther ordained, under pain of death, that
all persons who have arms belonging to the King,

Hartley, Esq. late of Middleton Lodge, 1'01401,4e.
this day came on to be heard, when the ApFellant's
Counsel stated to the Court, that they must abandon
their cause, having no evidence to support it, but
should contend that the Appellant should not be
condemned in costs. •

The COURT having heard all the four Counsel for
the Appellant, were satisfied; and, without hearing
amy of the Respondent's Counsel, established the Will
and Caiicil in favour of the Respondelit, condemn-
ing the Appellant in costs.

THE ARMY.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.
LETTER Vi.

It is universally felt to be infinitely mote
to support an accumulation of petty and minute
infelicities, than any single cal:unity of the most ter-
rific magnitude.
If the article in the Military Register pointed at
the heads of the Corps, as NI:. PERRY seemed iLic!ined
to believe, it must be eviden:, from what has been
said, that it did so very imperfectly. The crutly,
for example, of obstructing the prowess of my or it-
fit for India (as was the case), by the most un ar-
rantable assumption and exercise of power, is Lof
even hinted at in the Military Rzgisier. There is
one circumstance, however, which teems to be per-
fectly decisive in regard to the existence of an " la-
tfuence" somewhere—and that is, that previou.dy
the event of the individual al's tied to taking up IlLft
permanent residence s ith the Corps, no alifffic:.rs
could have possibly lid in grerger hat monj wile each
other than we did et head-quarters. But iblier
it is worthy of remark, hardly a d ehip,ed wiLLiont
producing some disagreement or another between me
and my brother Officers, generally, I may say at
ways, founded on the most trivial occurrences. The
most insignificant circumstances were now caught At
with avidity to form the pretext for oaths: uoth r:e,
as it is familiarly called ; for it was easily per
that the surest mad to favour was by being on the
very warn terms with me and trite verza t I was
thus honoured with the most marked, studied, and
invidious distinctions.

It is by no mean; a new thing for rising geniuses
to blow both hot and cold with the saiiie breath, to
please their patron saint. In fact, it ought, and I
have no doubt lug by and-bye, be considered rather
as a sympton of high-bred polished manners, than
of that servile, creeping meanness, which the •ulgar
are but too apt to term those elegant fiesibilities se
truly characteristic of the most amiable and soaring
dispositions !"
Louts XIV. was either led by his own superstition,
or by tide artifices of Med. ALipirsgoie, to an excess of
devotion—and, it is said, his Courtiers, as usual,
16.i/idled him in meekness, for some of them would
eves insist on taking the Sacrament twice r day ! ! rt

WAS AlkoterT, that induced the four worthies to
come over from France and take the liberty of
capitating him—No! it was because they imagined
(and perhaps justly), that it would be egreeeae to
iiswir

In short, it became clear, even to the common sol-
diers of the Royal Staff Corps, that I was obnoxious
in a certain quarter. The consequences, therefrre,
were evident. It was impossible that a situation such
as that in which I have described myself to have
been now placed, for the last three years, in the
Royal Staff Corps, could have remained tationary.
No Officer can continue to serve under mortificatious
which become at last to be notorious throughout the
neighbourhood. Accordingly a regimental event
soon happened which was the means of bringing my
situation to a crisis; and, at the same time, of re-
lieving the Royal Staff Corps from the mortifica-
tion of my services.
Whether this regimental event was either engen-
dered or accelerated by the slights, mortifications,
and invidious distinctions I had for a while pre-
viously experienced, or whether it was totally un-
connected with, and entirely uninfluenced by them,
is a problem which I am not bound to attempt the
solution. I state the event as a mere matter offad,,
and allow others to draw what inferences they please
from it I may just mention, en passant, however,
without,. I hope, being accused of presumption,
that it is believed by the best critics, 50C114772
would never have been brought to trial and con-
demned, had he not been previously degraded and
rendered ridiculous to the mass of the People, by
the satirical writings of ARISTOPHANES.
The event I allude to happened as follows :—On
the morning of Sunday, the 7th Jure, 1818, at a
Garrison Parade, I was ordered by the Officer then
in command of the Corps, to submit myself to be
singly marched round the Parade, by *ay of guard-
mounting, at the head of ten or a dozen men, under
the een:mend of an (ear considerably my junior.
This order, however, from an unfortunate miscon-
struction, on my part, of a regulation which 1 had
never before seen put in force, I begged, in the most
respectful manner, to be excused from performing.
But becoming very soon afterwards convinced of my
mistake, I lost no time in pleading error in judg-
ment ; that I meant no disrespect whatever to the
Officer in command : I fully apologized, and was
released from arrest, on the understanding that I
should exchange into a Regiment in 'lndia. In or-
der to effect which, it may be easily imagined, now
most desirable object, both Colonel COFFIN and Sir
B. Dllasitx were pleased to assure me of every as
sistante in their power; and they both seemed to
entertain no doubt whatever of being able to succeed.
I am, Sir, your's, &c. &c.
