rice, and demolish the Government and Liberties
of the United States, as they have done those of the
hapless coanfties they have over-ran by the help of
oar cash, without the aid of this indispensible requi-
site ? This is the knotty point that will most puzzle
the wits of the Ais-le-Chapelle politicians ; and they
may well Condescend to invite Mr. ALex. BARING
to add ins enlightening Commentaries to Lord
CASTLARRAGIII speeches, for who ever are made to
dances Jona BULL will have to pay the piper.

The breach between the Cotten-spiasers sod their
employers, we are sorry to remark, seems to be widen-
msg. The Masters at Preston have determined not to
raise the workmen's wages, and this was to bean-
Rowed to them this evening, a still more extensive
strike is expected.
We insert a letter in this cley'd SrArEsmeza free
the respectable proprietors of a manufactory et
Trowbridge, on the subject of the ceases of bre in
these establishments, which is highly deserving the at-
tention of proprietors, and all who have the tare of
such works. The result of the experimeets thus
communicated must prove of the utmost utility to
all whose interests ere involved in the safety of these
concerns, and will account for some of the la-
mentable accidents that have happened, without
imputing to any person the crime of voluntarily
being the cause of these occurrences.

The French Papers to the sth inst. have reached
es. They state nothing in regard to the investigation
into the conspiracy, which, from all that we can
learn through other sources, is not winch advanced,
and in great danger of being altogether stilled ; but
it is stated that Count DE CAZES, Minister of
Police, on Monday last. visited Mc:lnsane. The
Ministers are doubtless aware that it would have a
strange appearance, and augur very unfavourably as
to their power, were the prosecution for this plot
to he stayed ; and hence probably this conference
of the Police Minister tan the King's brother,
who is known to be the patron of the fic-
tion who are accused of the criminal project..--
The letter said to have been sent by Momisstre to the
King, charging his Majesty himself with a participa-
tion in the plot, is now understood to have been the
composition of Baron VITMOLLU, and to have been
the cause of his disgrace. A copy of this letter has
been transmitted to us by our Private Correspondent
at Paris, but want of room prevents our giving it to-
day.
It looks a !NIA suspicious ; bet there is en.
questionably some cause for the dismissals that
have been made from the King's Councils. The
Prince, in this letter, is made to espouse the cause of
the conspirators, and to threaten his Majesty with
making " 6 the troth known to the Allied Sovereigns."
It will then be discovered, they say, `• what part
your Majesty took in this great event." There is
certainly something uncommonly mysterious in this
plot against Royalty. Even the Journals announce
a brochure (a pamphlet) was seized on Saturday,
entitled A secret Note, explaining the Motives and
the Object of the late Conspiracy. This is, perhaps,
the Note of the Ultras to the Allied Powers, which
had been published some days ago, probably by the
Ministry itself, and which is said to have been
seized, after the booksellers had sold a great
number of copies. Bet this is very inexpli-
cable conduct on the part of the Government.—
General DONADIEU, who was stated in the private
letters from Paris to have withdrawn from that City
in consequence of being implicated in the Ultra-
Royalist conspiracy, is, it seems, at Dijon, whither he
has been sent to review the 2d Swiss regiment. The
Duke of RAGUSA, it appears, is at his estate near
Chat it lon •se r-Seine.
Accounts from Germany have already traced out
the march of the Austrian troops, forming part of
the Army of Occupation in France, on their return
kerne. They are to be divided, it is said, into two
*stems, which will pursue their route along the op-
posite banks of the Danube. The Emperor of
AUSTRIA, it is reported, will be present at the re-
ek,/ of his troops in France, in the course of the
present month, by the Duke of WELLINGTON. A
rumour is added, that at the departing reviews, as
they are called, the Emperor of RUSSIA and the
King of Pennies will also be present.

Captain KATES has been appointed by the Board
of Longitude to measure the length of the seconds'
pendulum at the Shetland Islands. The etpedition
originated with his Majesty's Ministers, who have in
the most liberal manner provided the finest intim-
menus to promote the object which it has in view.
Captain KATER, accompanied by lieutenant FRANK,
•f the Navy, arrived in Edinburgh on the 27th of
June, end set caller Shetland bn the Ist of July, in
the Nimrod sloop of war, commanded by Capt. DA R•
LING. After measu►ing the length of the pendulum at
Uist, Captain KATES proposes, if the weather is fa.
vourable, to go as far as the North Cape, in Norway,
with the view of determining the length of the pen-
dulum in the latitude of 70 degrees, or 71 degrees,
and, to repeat the same measurements in Norway In
the latitude of 65 degrees, er 66 degrees. Ile then
returns to the trigonometrical survey at Cnwhithe,
near Banff; and having determined the length of the
pendulum there, he performs the same espe►iments
at Leith, Fort Clifton, Arbufy Hill, and Dunnose.
CALEDONIAN CANAL—In consequence of Fort
Augustus and Fort William hating been discontinued
as Military Establishments in Scotland, the Perlis.
mentary Commissioners have made an application to
the Pains REGENT, through Lord SIDMOUTH, to
transfer the possession of the buildings and the ad-
joining land, as objects of great importance for the
purposes of the Caledonian Canal, which is now
nearly completed. The Commissioners, in their Re-
port, stile, they had every reason to espect a favour-
able answer to their application.
The importance and value of salt as an introduction
into food, becomes continually more evident, as its
medicinal properties are rendered more distinct and
fully known. Among other salubrious virtues, may
be mentioned its authelminthick properties, which
have been rendered very evident by the publication of
some late cases. It appears, that whenever salt is
denied to human being, diseases of the stomach ere
general, and that 'Gilmore engendered in the body ;
and in one instance, where a person, from aversion
to that substance, had refused It either in food,
or in any other form, they appear to have been the
consequence, and remained for many years. In
Ireland, salt is a well-known remedy for bats in the
horse; and among the poor people a dose of common
.salt is esteemed a care for the worms.
