Paris. June 70.

The following speech was pronounced
by the assassin Louvel, before the
Chamber of Peers. in a faltering voice
and tone scarcely audible. 1t may
be considered as the essence Of the de-
solaling principles which for many
years have been peryerting bis mind !;
and the effect it produced was so much
the more profoundly felt, that none of
,he ordinary motives which excite men
to political crimes seem to have had the
slightest influence on him. IL was the
resuIt of an abstract perversion OF mo-
IA. notions operating on W. ak intel
let, but determined resolution. Leu
vel seemed to represent The genius Of
evil; he was Jacobinism presented,
di,passionately promulgat doctrines,
though sometimes a trait of oblitera-
ted humanity interviewed, and astonish-
ell the auditor:
- have to-day to blush for crime

yer, in dying, tic consolation Of think
ing, that have neither dishonored the
nation nor my family. ought to be
considered as Frenchman WHO has

but among the men who hold the reins

virtues. The worst governments which
France has had, have always punished
tho e who betrayed it, or carried arms
against tie nation.
According TO my system, when TO-
reign Ar nies menace. parties In the IN
term should cease, and rally to combat
in common cause against the enemies
of all the French. Frenchmen who do
not rally are guilty. In my opinion,
if trenchnan is obliged to quit
France in consequence of the injustice
of government, and appears in arms a
gainst France with foreign armies, that
frenciman is guilty. and is no longer
entitled to the advantages Of his quality
Of French citizen. According to my
opinion, cannot help thinking that, if
the battle of Waterloo has been SO fatal
to France, it is to be attributed to the
Frenchmen who, from Client and at
Brussels, introduced treason in our ar
the enarmies, and furnished succor to
the enemy.
"Conformably to my opinion and my
system, the death of Louis XVI. was
necessary, because the nation consent

gree, not merely with the state acknowledge

the literary attainments, also, OF King John,
King Henry, and their Barons bold
Surely the Declaration of American indie
pendence is, at least, as well entitled to the
decorations OF art as the Magma Charta OF
England andit the fac-similes of the sig
natures of the patriots who signed it were

tify curiosity, at least as laudable as that
which calls for limitations Of the correspon-
dents Of Juaius or Of the aristocracy that
wrested the English Charter from the reluc-
tant monarchs of the day.
We are firmly persuaded that the more
the principles OF our Declaration OF lndepen-
dence are spread out before the eyes OF the
world, the more they will be admired, by
foreign nations as well as our own and eve

Dear Sir have for tome time past been
threatening to write to you, to let you know
how well | am pleased with the Ruthyen
Press, improved and made by you !; but a
variety of circumstances have prevented it.
lhave had it in constant operation three
months during winch time nearly all the
PRIMERS of this city, and a number of our
most ingeniou, mechanics, have called to ex-
anime it. They have pronounced il as COM
plete in every respect, as any machinery
they have ever seen.
The following is the idea lhave Of it. !.
No Printing Press has ever been construct
ed, on which more or better work can be
done in given time.
The exertionof working it is no more than
healthy exercise for a boy OILS years Of age.
