The Nowitter gives the fallowing particulars.* the
&owes conspiracy, to which M. Latijoissais aitettott
in his speech, in the Chamber _of Pe►rs, open the
Margeis de liettbelesey's Notion respecting the Elec.
lien 1411:

On the 224 of last My. Legsll, who was em-
ployed in ibe indirect contributions, and Leguesvel,
who had d in the Royal Army, left L'Orieut,
and proceeded to the Commune of Coeds, where
they saw the Curate of that pariah. According to
their account, they stated to this Canto, that dia.
content prevailed generally throeghont the Mors.
bihan, that the people were disposed to take arum
spirit the King, soil that the Curate himself pro.
misedto facile the inhabitants to arms from the pelf*.
The Carat's, however, denied the whole trans.
action. Legall and Legoesvel subsequently tries.
versed other Common's, spreeding the reamers of
a conspiracy that loss organising, and stating,
among other things, that a pr of the name
of Messier was the bearer of a 'Treaty concluded
with Enevnil, in obis!. the English Government en-
gaged to samout them, and to gimp them sus asylum
in rate of hitaie. Oa the Soh of August they ern-
hosted (or the Island .f Guernsey. 'ropy mule.

the arms which she English f: had Co..
ided to them ; and t6rt,in cissisey , they were
deputed by their conspanksis us arms to solicit the
protection of the Bullish Cosesommis. This letter
was dispatches: in L-ishoss, whither the writers fal-
-1 lowed it, in a King's ship, according to their nova
account. Irhile in London, Leg I wrote@ let-
ter to bit aunt, in v.hich he assured her, their glair
was going un prosperously, sod that he sboald soon
be able to ‘risil her a Notes from a Sovereagn of Ea.
rope, which Would give her great pleasure. It
does not elver that this Royal 'spittle was emir
forthcoming.

Meeawhile, the jnereles which Legal, end
I hed made in the department of the \lnf-
lation were rensevred about, attracted the notice of
the French Governaseut, and legal processes were
commenced.

On the 4th September they returned to France,
having landed at Dmekirlt. Immediately upon their
arrive., they wrote to the Commissary of Police„-in.
forming Min that they bad learned in England some
circemsteeces of the utmost importance, as well with
regard to the interests of France as to the safety of
her Ministers; and that the love they entertained for
their poetry and the good of the State, had induced
them to retern to Paris as soon as pessible, ia order
to coonneeicate their tidings to the Minister of Po.
Oa, to whom alone they could be revealed. They
also addressed • letter ro its Excellency. In this
lever, after informing Al. de Cases that they'
had discovered the plot In England, instead, as it
appeared from their own account, of having goo. to
England to promote it, they odd, .4 We ken w enough'
to be able to masa to your Escrllency the sources
of this conspiracy, its authors, and all its ramifies.
tine,. The Throne—your liners—yourself—would
be In danger, should it take effect. The Congress
—. hem Sir, lam forced to stop; I must not
be more explicit in writing." They concluded by
asking for 150 francs, which were absolutely owe,.
eery to enable them to discharge consist oblivious
into which they had entered.
They were conducted to Paris. While en their
journey they addie•e-d, from Compiegne, under the
date of the 12th September, another letter to M. de
Cases. It was rather more explanatory than the
former, and d cud, by name, the persons who
were to Caere away in the plot they had to disclose.
They stated elan, " that after the (limitation of the
Chambers, in 1815, the public mind began to be egi.
toted in Britanny ; everywhere the torch of civil war
was displayed ; and France owed her tranquillity
only to the few inspired by the presence of the Is.
reign troops, and to the measures, so fell of wisdom,
which his Euelleney had adopted wish regard to the
elections. However, they ceetineed to assemble...
stated days, and deliberated how they could manage
the revolt with success, when it a.as onanieseesly
resolved to welt for the departure of the Allies.--
Every thing remained quiet till the discession epos
the Itemising lAw. At that period there wine cira
related in the Cantos, of Morbihan, a pamphlet of
Chairaebriand's, entitled ' The Seaters of the
sistri.' This, together with the speeches of MM.
Sallaberry and Cassano, completely turned the Mods
of the people in that district."

So much for the absurd story of a conspiracy to
overturn French !Loyalty. The atm,* representation
proves that France captains, as well as choic► spirits,
wandering spirits and wicked spirits. We could not
well avoid suing something upon it, thoegh we re-
gret the room the detail occupies.

doned, and resumed in the last fortnight of October
lof the same year, when the Emperor Alexander
returned from his tour t. Frsoce. It was then they
applied to Meryl's, whom they knew to be con-
weird with several sologbiers. l'iger obtained from
him a letter of serommeadalion to one Ganalian, a
tasern•leeper et Bosses, its order to procure him
some good fellows to es try on the same opera:lams
which he, Dieraks, maid be had carried •n in the
boom of Caothi. I'o this letter was added a note,
written by Dieroks, pointing out the least frequented

taken to Franco as soca as they bad seised on his
'person. Pager hoeing received these two papers front
Meeks, esclaimed with satisfaction, " Now we shalt

It was at this time that Piger wrote from the die.

(aa!ded below), to the foot of which they iiitended to
make the Emperor Almada, annex Isis signature ;
they tank into, the plot another portion, namely,

that they departed from the pauith part which had

On the 7th Nev. it was agreed wilt N. Mink*

to Gawki another letter iss stronger terms; god that
he should also supply some money. He wrote (hie

Berth lent him his pistols and a dress ; Lames de-
livered him a cane, the head of which was N.poleon
Bonaparte, and advised him to show this rall!ing

On the Bth of November, Piger set out for Bouts.,

that Gandri had removed to the neiehboorhood of

desired her to carry the hater to Geodri. Then he
