The Brun.,cick Rerotution.-The editor Of
the New York Evening Post, gives the fol-
lowing account Of an abortive attempt on
hepart Of Duke Charles to recover his autho-
rity, extracted from the London Court Jour-
nal. The account is said to be written by
the Duke himself, and is given as his by tho
I]ournaI In which II appears.
He was expelled from his territories in tho
beginning Of September last, and went to
London, where he had the modification to
hear Of the accession Of his brother 10 tho
throne, amidst testimonies Of the greatest
ed the plan. as he says, Of proving to bis sub.
jects, and to the world, 'fhat they had judg-
ed falsely of him in supposing that be had
ever harbored an idea of oppres ing bis SUBJ
fleets, or depriving them of their rights.
He therefore set out in November, to return
through France to his states, and distribute
his proclamation. When he got to Erich,
the Prussan frontier town, he was met, as
he says, by some Of his subjects, eager 10
express to him their attachment and fidelity,
and received Populations from some of the
neighboring Brunswick villages, inviting him
to return among them. On the frontiers.
however, he met with detachment of tho
military, ready, sword in hand, to oppose his
entrance. He, therefore, "to avoid the shed.
dug of blood" turned about and attempted
to gain an entrance by way Of Osterode,
Hanoverian town. On arriving at Osterode
he heard threatening speeches beneath the
windows Of his inn, and observed a turbu-
lent popuace attempting to force an entrance
at the house door. He therefore began 10
fear for his life, and effected an escape by a
back way, through the garden. In his flight
he was met, as he says, by "rebellious hire
ling, who attempted to stab him with knife"
but the Duke knocked him down and com.
pleted his escape. He afterwards arrived in
Paris, where he was at the last advices but
nearly the whole of his property is in Eng
land. The courts Of London and Berlin ad-
wise him to abdicate formally in favor of his
brother. and retire to America or elsewhere
but the duke shows no disposition 70 do this.
