Heytesbury has addressed letter to Lord

very deadly nature, and fears were entertain

! Er- Ministers of France.-The Committee
Of the Chamber Of Peers are proceeding scru-
| pul0usy in the necessary examination con-
nected with the trial Of the Ex-Ministers. 1t
appears that the inquiry by the Chamber Of
| Deputies will be passed over, and the docu-
ments of the procedure will be taken from
the time when the ex- Ministers entered into
office. These immense researches will retard
the opening Of the tlial beyond the time fixed
! for it. The pleadings, it is believed, cannot
begin before the 18th or Goth of Dec. 1t is
! the opinion of the CounseIlors retained for
the trial. that it will not last more than a
week. The sentence will therefore be pro-
nounced amidst fetes Of the Christmas holi-
days. The treatment of the four prisoners
at Vincennes bears no resemblance with that
! of former state prisoners. 1t is not accom-
panied by any unnecessary rigor. One Of
! the prisoners must be struck with the singu-
lar contrast, if he remembers the persecu-
tons he formerly ordered or tolerated against
the men of letters whom he sent to the prls-
on Of Polsay. handcufed like malefactors,
and led by gendarmes. The prisoners take
their meals together. They receive their
wives, relatives and friends. Among the per-
sons that are allowed to visit them, are the
brother of M. de Chantelauze, M. de Laville
Leon. son-in. law Of M. de Peyronnet. M.
aud Nine. de Villebois, M. and Nine. de Gu
iche, M. de Guernon, Jr. and Nine. de PO-
lignac. but the latter has not been IT, Vim
lcennes during the last fortnight. being near her
confinement. The prisoners have books. pa
per, and ink. They receive and read all the
Journals. After their meals they usually play
at backgammon or chess. M. de Chante-
lauze, whose health is precarious, is in very
weak state. VI. de Peyronnet exhibits in his
countenance cool earnestness and some irrita-
ton. He says but little. NJ. de Polignac is
more communicative, preserves his courtier-like
manner, and appears calm. Nj. Guernon de
Ranville displays much frmness. Heappears
to have raised himself above the fate which
awaits him. He sings and at times is very
jocular. In conversation relative to the curl
osities of Vincennes, on the governor mention
ing that it was not true that st. Louis had
administered justice under an oak, but some
times came to Vincennes to settle the disputes
| which had arisen between families, M. Guer-
non de Ranvills added smiling that he was
the Juge de Pair of the country. Since the
| last incursion of the Parisia MS upGn Vim
cennes, Gen. Damesnil has ordered four open
ings to be made in the outer wall towards
Paris, where cannon will be placed, to fire
upon such as might make another attempt at
| attack. To persons who are acquainted with
the interior Of the castle, it is evident that
500 artillery men are sufficient to keep at bay
$4,000 men. The prisoners will continue in
this fortress as long as possible, and their re-
moval to the Luxembourg will only be known
| to the public when it shall have been effected.
Every thing is prepared in this new prison to
receive them. The gate towards the Rue de
Vanguard will be opened only to the military
on duty. The prisoners and the persons who
visit them will enter by small wicket door.
The following are some details on the interi-
or arrangements of the prison: Beyond
guard-hOuse in which there are already camp
beds and racks for arms, are the rooms des-
tined for the prisoners. The first is that of
M. de Chantelauze. All the interior commu-
nlcations, as well as the closets and chimneys,
are walled up. In the middle is a stove.
with all its appendages. On the left is ma
hogany bedstcad, with soft matrass, and
white curtains. A table, chest of drawers,
and two chairs, form the residue of the fur
niture OF this apartment. There is good
light, owing to the high windows, half of
which is masked on the outside by boards
covered with iron. Above these boards are
strong iron bars close to each other, and
which are screened with iron tissue, to pre-
vent arms or even letters being thrown in.
Nothing is seen through the windows but the
sky and the tri-cOlored flag on tho dome of
the Luxembourg. The rooms destined for
M. de Polignac, NJ. de Peyronnet, and M.
Gnernon de Ranvie, present the same ar
'angement. bat do not communicate with
each other. They are approached by differ
emf passages. Each Of the rooms is closed
