The Paris Papers of Saturday arrived last night.

The unfortunate General LACY, having arrived at
Majorxa, was shot, on the .sth instant, at fnur o'clock
in the morning. The Spanish Government must be
yreak and tottering indeed, when it dare not execute
a convicted criminal at the seat of his alleged offence,
but is obliged to resort to the disgraceful expedient
of conveying him away to a distant island, and put-
ting the sentence into sudden execution, at an hour
when the clouds of night still lowered over thelcene.
A full publication of all the particulars of this ill-
fated individual's trial, condtmnation, and execution,
seems very necessary to vindicate the conduct of the
Spanish Government in this matter.
The celebrated General Kosacsso arrived on the
12th inst. at Lausanne.

The Austrians are beginning at last to evacuate
the Kingdom of Naples.
Accounts from Lisbon, dated the 4th of July, state
that several other persons implicated in the late con-
spiracy, which was vet y extensive, have been arrested.
Some of the persons in custody are Ecclesiastics ;
and important discoveries have been made by a Lieu-
tenant of the 16th Regiment.
The accounts from Switzerland continue to be
very distressing. All the convents and large build-
ings in the eastern part of Switzerland, which have
suffered most by the late inundations, are filled with
houseless and starving individuals, whose meadows
have been inundated, and their cattle drowned.—
These unfortunates are for the present sublisted on

Paris without leave, and was detected intriguing with
seditious persons.

On Friday last the Minister of Police shut up seven
bakers' shops in Paris. for fraudulent practices.
French Funds, 25th July-6 fr. 75 c.

Accounts have, we understand, been received in
town from General Bow'Aft, which represent the
cause of the Independents as in the most prosperous
state, and fast approaching to its ultimate triumph.
The General is concentrating his forces on the
Orinoko, and has little doubt of driving the Royalists
before him. It is in order to join him that the Pa-
triot troops, as we stated yesterday, have evacuated
the Wand of Margaritta.

Charleston Papers to the ht July arrived this
morning. The following is the only article in them
of any interest

" CHARLESTON, JUNE 117:

" By the British schooner Henry and Robert,
Tedder, five days from Nassau, we are informed,
that a short time before she sailed a privateer brig,
under the Carthagenian flag, was wrecked noon Cape
Florida. The crew, with about 140,000 dollars in
specie, were saved by the Providence wreckers, and
brought to Nassau. The Government ordered them
to be arrested as pirates, when a part of the privateers-
men seized upon a small wrecky vessel (the Venus),
put the specie on board her, and effected their escape.
Themeeatainder, about 18 or 20 in number, were
eominitteit to gaol, and their trial was going on when
,the Henry tailed. The first Lieutenant was a resident
of Itissau, and was among the number that made
their escape."

The Brazil Packet, which arrived on Monday, has
brought no official details or proper confirmation of
the restoration of Pernambuco, though she left Rio
Janeiro on the 28th of May, and B4hia on the Bth of
Juice. The Liverpool Merchanti are still dubious on'
this affair, because they had three ships in Pernam-
buco loaded and ready to sail, when the Revolution ,
commenced, and if the embargo ceased by the re-
capture of the place, they are astonished that these
vessels have not made their appearance.
The following is an eztract of a letter respecting
Buenos Ayres affairs, dated Rio Janeiro, May 27 :

44 The Portuguese are still shut up in the fortress of Monte-
video, undoubtedly ter the want of bones, for the natives ate
'sowers of the whole country round. The Portuguese hare wadi
a few military excursions 'without the walls, for the purpose of
collecting cattle and wheat, but , their efforts were node's, as Ar-
cisme people have destroyed every thing. Lately as have re-
ceived'advices, that the Gaucho. have obtained posseslion of 1500
horses the Portuguese bad stationed on the mount ; and if this
is true, they will certainly pass a disagreeable winter, for they al-
ready experien ad the tocutiveuieiscies and hardships of a meet
rigorous siege.*ce

Owing to the excesses and outrages of the Carthz.
genian privateers against the lawful commerce of all
nationi, the Republican Admiral, &am, has issued
a notice, that no respect should be paid to any oral-
zer's commissions which should not be signed by
himself. Some privateers, acting in defiance of this
notice, have been seized as pirates, and will be dealt
.with accordingly. The Saucy Jack privateer -has
has been taken by the Pique frigate,. and carried
into Port Royal, Jamaica. We trust that these ma-
ritime cut-throats will be punished as they deserve ;
and that a few signal examples of the foremost crimi-
nals may suffice to intimidate the remainder.
The Governor of Trinidad has made known by
Proclamation, that any of the inhabitants of that+
island, detected in supplying articles contraband n
war to the Spanish subjects in arms against their
_Sovereign, will be exposed to confiscation and to ba-'
nishment.
