PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.

Ppri,, Oct. 9.
A sanguinary qnarrel, of tLe cause of which we
are ignorant, which look place at half-past 10 in the
evening, in front of the Pont Note, Dame, at the
corner of the Rue Planche 51ilhay, between some
Frenchmen and foreigners, has given occasion to
measures which have produced some alarm in that
qUarter. Yesterday, at half-past I'2, about 1000
Prussian troops, with three pieces of CRIIIIOII, sur-

rounded the different street, in that part of the town.
*On arriving below the Pont Notre Dame, on the side
of the Qoai 11.-.lletier, they received orders to load,
which was executed. The Commandant, M. Prue!,
immediately summoned the principal inhabitants and
proprietors, and required from them information re.
lative to the event which had occurred. After an
energetic exhortation to maintain tranquillity, he I
dismissed them. Four or five were, flowerer, car.
vied away. The troops retired after a kind of block-
ade. which lasted an hour.
Beside the three persons mentioned in the Papers
as having cried Vive Kittpereur !on Saturday last,
there were about a dozen arrested on the Pont Neuf
by the Police Agents fur seditious speeches more or
less openly uttered.
This morning when the King showed himself on
the balcony, a young man again cried Vive l'Empe-
rear ! He received a good drubbing both with fists
and canes, and was finally carried off by the guard.
A letter from Ghent states, that another assassina.
tion was committed there on the evening of the 4th,
on M. de Pastele, formerly Captain of the Town
soldiers, and nearly 80 years of age. His body was
found, without his watch and shoes, in Lower Polder.
greet.
The Museum was open to the public yesterday.

LONDON:

SAWS • AT. OCTOUEIL 11. 1815.

This forenoon we ~ceived the Paris Papers of
Tue.tiay and W.Aitesday la. Fhey trig n sli2,ht
sketch of the business n 'itch e•nv,g .4 the Chan•her
of Doputi,,,, and Tue•day. It appears
to hive bf,eit merelv preliminary on both these days,
the Slt,l 2.4 being for tto• seritivalitto of pg.wer, and
thr nonii:iation of the President 04 Tuesday tLe
Candidates p.it in nomination fur this (Mice ',Are-
-111. Livir, of 13.,ordeaux, the President of the Cham-
ber in 1814 ; the Prince DE LA rtt Emoul LLE ; M.

LADD; M. DE G ansants ; Cut t.r. %up, CE t. A RIG AUDIE ;
CLEamo NT, of 11..u0t St. Jean ; and M. FAGLr, of
13-iore. M. LAtNE had the greatest number of votes
in his favour, and was proclaimed one of the num-
ber of Candidates, out of whom the King will select
the President ; but none of the other Deputies hav-
ing the neces4ary,riiajOlp, the scrutiny, which last•
ed till five in the, evistitoz, was adjourned till Wed-

nesdiy, and the Sitting %as broke up. There is lit-

tle reason to doubt that M. LAM; will be the Presi-
dent. The first object after the Chamber is legally
constituted will be to vote an Address to the King iu
reply to his Majesty's Speech.
The Deputies, therefore, at the date of these Pa-
Flyers, had not entered on the discussion of the arti-
cles of the Treaty.

In regard to the proceedings of the Chamber o
Peers, we.bAy.e a more important, though a less
circumstantial notice. The Peers have commenced
their public acts by a most remarkable proceeding
indeed; they have expelled two of their Members,
M. 13nunnosNAIE OF. licossac and Jetts DE l'n-
Ltpusc, for persisting to qualify the oath which they
tniA at the 11-'5l tii:ting, when the King's speech
wits delivered, in which his Majesty admitted that

- -
the Constitutional Charter was suacl)tible of

provemetirs.—These Members took the Oath ofl
Fidelity, with a IFlP•va'ion or qualification in favour I
of e Protestao IteliAion. It appears from their
expulsion, (s hich is of course the work of royal in.
uem e and authority, that the emendations of which
the Charter (leveled suzceptible, by the leading
part of the But:Reny Fan ily, and probably by those
who framed the Royal speech, are not of the liberal
find comprehensive cast which the objectors who
have been thus visited with punishment think necessary.
The Charter is already deemed of too liberal a na
ture by the governing part of the Royal Family,
and so inimical is it known to be to the Duchess of
ANGOULEME, that although a tribune was prepared
for her at the splendid ceremony of the opening of
the Legislative Session) her Highness refused to ho-
