The Times, 1824-11-10T00:00:00

Rumours have been in circulation for a day or two, that some political arrests had taken place in Paris. The little attention which they excited, both here and in the French capital, showed that rno importance was ascribed to them. Tlhe following letter contains the only iuformation which has as vet reached us upon tie subject:- I ." PATais, Nov. 5. About a fortsight ago, the Count de All", son of the 'larquis-de DI'" by a Scotch lady, whom he married during the emigration, arrived at Paris, and took up his residence at a thraished hotel in the Rue du Ilail. The Count, who is a First Lientenant ifi the Dragoons, met in the street, by accident, a private of the sasne reginment, who had been a qttarter-muster, but had been dlegraded on account of nmisconduct. From the representation of distress on the part of the latter, the Count de A'**, notwith. standing his genteel appearttnee, which was far frorr indicating poverty, invitedI him to Lake up his abode at the amne hote!, at hriw expense. The chamber of the Count having two beds, the dragoon NO"* occapied one; and the two partie9 regularly breakfast- ed isn the house, and dinod at thle table d'lwte, both pastIlig for officers in the Dragoons. Vn Tueslay evening last, a resDectable J3nglisbman, wvho dines at die same table but has no other ac. qintance witb diem, consented to accoinpany N" to thc asais Roy. Upon arrivinig there, N#E perceived some one whom he endeavoured to avoid: bat finaing he was seen, he approached a gentleman, of anm affler hke appearanee, who addresset him in a most vehement manner: to which the other replied in termns equally warm. N"^'", upon rejoining the Eigi'afso man, said, Untortunately that is my Colonel.' OI Thursday morning, the Count's servant, when mitaking the beds, fotind under .q_s pillow a knit'e, which had beea eround to the form of a dagger, witil a sharp point. This discovery caused considerable alusm, and the Count, who is in expectation ef receiving a sun: of dohey. of which the otlher is aware, inmagin.ed that the weapon was intendied against his lise. This idea was strengthened by N .. having said to tle servant, that he had rendered the Couwnt essential service in hiS affairs, and that he sliould not be satisfied unlecs he gave him 2,(t0Dt franmcs. In the course of the same morning (Thursday), hovever, N-II'l was arrested by gendarmes, and conveyed to the Prefecture of the Police, where he was immediately handcufl,d, and inder. went an examination. The charges against hirm are of the most se- rious nature. lie is said to be accused of conspiracy againet the Government, and many others are said to be associated with him. He remains at the depot of the Prefsecture of Po)ice. The Co,unt de Al"' was arrested yesterday, and has been exandinedI X but he ap- pears to be quite unconnected with the conspirators. The servant was also exassined yesterday, relative to the finding of the dagger, &c., andl has orders to remain in Paris, at the same hotel, the police answering tbr his expenses. The keeper oftdie hotel was also su-i. dioned vesterday moring' and had orders to attend again in the evening, at seven o'clock. I am assured that sevcral other persons were taken into esstody yesterday, and that in the house of one 11 daggers were discovered. I forgot to state that soon after the arrival of N^*0' at the hotel in the Rue du iAlail,a negotiation for taking a larger hotel was on foot, between himn wko represented that he had 40,000 francs at his disposal, the master of the lintel, and anothet party, and advanced so far that the agreemrent was dhr.awn up. The proposed unionl wvas subsequently abandoned. At a late h$fi?>ast night two commissioners of police wvent to the hotel, to ascertin that the servant had really not quitted it." .7PPV.Q7q TAv PARnM.
