those shameless and impudent accusations, from the
old vindicator of Gallic fraud and tyranny, were re-
ceived in a British House of Commons with applause !"
He thought he had stated enough to 'move that a
gross breach of privilege had been committed ; and
moved—That Andrew Mitchell, the Printer of The
New Times, be ordered to attend at the Bar of, the
House to-morrow.
Sir J. MACKINTOSH—" In a case personal to
myself I wish to say as little as possible. I consider
the attack made on me in this publication, as I will
any attack made on me, for the discharge of my Par-
liamentary duty, with the most perfect indifference,
with.the most complete unconcern. Hear hear.) As
far as my own feelings go, I never wish my name to
be connected with any question of breach of privi-
lege, and, therefore, I am rather anxious, if my
Learned Friend has no objection, that the matter
should rest here. If, however, he thinks proper to
proceed, I only wish that the course taken may be
the most lenient possible.—(flear.) With respect to
the anxiety of the writer of this letter to elicit truth,
and encourage fair argument, I have merely to state,
that, in the year 1808, the time when he places me in
the new, unusual, and unthought-of situation, of a
sycophant to the Court Party. I was employed in ad-
ministering justice in the East Indies 1."7--(Hear.)
Mr. CUOKELI admitted that the words would
amount to a Breach..of Privilege, if they were applied
directly to the Honourable Member, but they referred
to the speech as it was given by the reporter. Be-
sides, the libel was not of a nature which could in-
jure the character of his Honourable Friend (Sir J.
Mackintosh). The latter part of the libel alluded to
his conduct before he became a Member of that
House, and could not, as lie conceived, be construed
into a Breach of Privilege, however gross and un-
founded. For the;e reasons he thought the best
course would be to put the question first, whether it
was a Breach of Privilege or not ?
Lord Mt LTON concurre.d with the Hon. Gentle-
man in thinking it was a doubtful question, and
therefore should be first determined.
'Mr. W. WYNN thought the case so clear as to
render it unnecessary that they should come to that
resolution. It would be better that the Gallery should
be shut altogether, though that would be a great evil,
than that such comments should be permitted to the
disadvantage of Members. It was not with a view
to his Honourable Friend, but for the general protec-
tion of the House and of the Country, that he had
brought forward the subject.
Lord C ASTLEREAGH suggested, that as doubts
were entertained whether the publication in question
amounted to a b:each of privilege or not, the be.t
way would be to adjourn the question, and in the
mean time, the Honourable Member would have an
opportunity to satisfy his own mind.
Mr. WYNN acquiesced in the suggestion, and the
question was postponed.
The House went into Committee on the Bankrupt Amend-
tarot Laws.

r.
Tile House resumed, and the Report was received and order-
ed to be re•committed up stairs.
The Framework-knit r,:rs' Bill was read a third time and passed.
Mr. BItOGDEN gave notice, on the part of a Noble Friend
of his, that he would move to-morrow, that the House at its
rising that day adjourn to Friday.
The other Orders of the Day were then agreed tq after which
the House adjourned at half-past"fwo o'Clnck.

The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived this Morning.

The RING, on Saturday, transacted business suc-
cessively with the Minister for Foreign Affairs and
the Minister at War. The latter, Marshal Sr. Ora,
was to set out on Sunday for the waters of Carlsbad,
where he is expected to remain about a month.
The llion;teur announces that M. BRICOGNE has
been struck off the list of the Council of State. The
3.nirnals agree in conjecturing that the cause of his
disgrace is a recent publication on the Finances, in
which NI. BRICOUNIC CO/ItPTltied, with a good deal of
talent, for the uncourtly doctrines of Economy and
Retrenchment, and sheaved, by a variety of details,
how a reduction of fifty millions might be effected
in the Budget.
The Chamber of Deputies have already gone so far
on M. BRICOGNE'S hints as to strike off upwards of ten
millions ; and in this we presume lies the bitterness
of the pill. If such be really the cause of the grudge
which the French Ministers have conceived against
M. BRICOGNE, we think with one of the Journals (the
Gazette de France) that he ought to be felicitated on
an event which separates him from a set of advisers so
regardless of the interests of truth and their country.
In the Chamber of Deputies, on Saturday, Baron
de Snws, in the name of the Committee of Expenses,
made a Report on the Petition of Pource, the Grena-
dier who saved the life of Bonaparte, in the affair of
St. Cloud, on the 18th Brumaire, in the year 8 of the
Republic. The object of the Petition was to obtain
• along with his pay as a retired
which had been gran-
ipense for his conduct
laws having been
prohibit the accumu-
Committee were of opinion

that the case of Pour°e was one which ought to be
made an exception to the general law. On the ques-
tion of adopting this recommendation, a very anima-
ted debate ensued.

M. CHAUVELIN felt great repugnance to confirm
a national recompense for an act which he designated
as of " fearful example." He moved the previous
question.
M. de PUYMARIN supported the opinion of the
Committee. The affair of the 18th Brumaire had
rescued France from the ruinous domination of a re-
volutionary faction, and could never be remembered
without gratitude; but leaving that out of view, the
Honourable Member thought that the act of a soldier
bravely interposing between his General and the
poignards of assassins, presented in itself an example
deserving of every encouragement.
M. Puymarin sat down amidst a great deal of con-
fusion and conflicting calls for the " previous ques-
tion, adjournment, vote, &c."
M. LAINE DE VILLEVEQUE, ascending the tribune
in great warmth—" If you consecrate by a national
recompense the attempt of Bonaparte on the 18th
Brumaire against a Represeetative Assembly, it will
be necessary that you also recompense the attempt
of the 18th Fructidor, the sale of Louisiana, the x.. 1
pedition to St. Domingo, and
M. CHAUVELIN (from his place)—" Cite our vic-
tories, our high deeds of arms ; say that they should
all be recompensed, but that we shall never be rich
enough to do it."
After several other Members had addressed the
Chamber, the previous question was at length put ;
but in consequence of the great contusion which pre-
vailed, the votes had to ne taken four times over
before the sense of the Chamber could be definitively
ascertained, when it appeared to be by a small majo-
rity in the negative. The motion for the adoption
of the recommendation of the Committee was then
put and carried.
The Chamber afterwards resumed the acijcurned
discussion on the Budget, when the following sums
were voted :—For the completion of the Heel de
Rivoli, 1,300,000 fr.—Ordinary Service of the Mini-
ster of Finance, 7,565,000 fr. An article under the

head of Eipensts of Negnciation, gave rise to a dis-;
cussion, which being protracted till the usual hntir of
rising, the Chamber adjourned.

FROM OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENT.
" PARIS, JUNG

•. The arrival of Mar,,hal SouLT here has given
rise to many ccnjectures. My observations it a re-
cent letter on Mart•hal Geuvros STi Cvtt have been
translated into all the French Papers, and uniformly
abused by them all. SoutT's arrival convinces them
that it is not always Frenchmen who are best ac-
quainted with French affairs. There seems little
doubt of partial changes in the Ministry—they arc
as necessary as similar changes in the English one;
indeed, for the two Governments to be in harmony,

(which is absolutely necessary for their mutual pro-
sperity) such changes in one render similar ones in
tht other if not indispensable, at least highly desirable."

Saturday morning Lord MEtvir.ts, Sir Grlonoc
Coos:Butts, Sir HENRY 110THA NI, Sir T. B. NIA RTIN,

and contrived by Sir W. CONGIIIIVE, of fitting the

hours they returned to the Dock-yard. The Lords

took their departure, but the Comptroller and Sur-
veyor of the Navy continued through the day visiting
