CLOUD, AUG. 4. The King bear(d ml in his apartmenit. The King received 1. the President and the Bareau of the Chamber of Peers, who had the honour of presenting to his Mla- ijsty the financial projet of law which was adopted by the Ckam- ber in the sitting of yesterday. Atr noon there was a Council of Misisteis, at whichs the King pre- fide,: It la,1ted an hour and a half. After thie extra.ordinary hearts vwhichi have revaild in thc de- partiment of the Aude since the beginning of JulY, a violent wind arose on the 18th, and refrcshltd the atmiosphere: at the close of the evening., tht lightning flashed trom all points of the firmament, un- accompanied by thunmier. At twenty mninutes lpast 10 o'clock there was a shock of an earth- quake, accompanie(l by a his,ing of the wind, resembling the noise rnadc by a fueCe. T he slrock took place, accordiag to some, par soabre.aut, and that of others, by oscillation, and many persons 'were awakened from their slee). The effects produced by tiis shock are variously reported, but the accounts generally agree as to the hour and the indication of the legrees marked by Reaumur's ther- mronieter at tlrc time, which wag at 20 degrees. The barometer, which throughout the day lIad indicated a pres- surc of 23 inches, experienedtl no variation at tihe moment of th e shock, and the temperature, wlhich was rather freah during the day, l,ecamne suffocating undll two o'clock in the Diorning: it is asserted, that tbe bhock was felt at different roin(s in the contiguous depart- ments. It is affirmed, says the Jmou nal of lire Dcpartrrzertr of lile .Seilrc d rri Oise, that on Thursday last a hrzissier of Versailles, accor,pa- nied by a justice of the peace of the canton of Allarly, entered the Pavilton de la Jonchere, belonging to Al. Ouvrard, <i-devant Coti- tractor-General of the arnmy of Spain, in order to arrest him, in de- fault of payment by him of a credit ofnearly three inillions. PosTscRI'T.-'-To.-tav, in a Gauncil of Alinisters, were decreed scycral changes which Pre necessitated by the nomination of a Ali- r,ister of Foreign Affairs, taken froin amongst the inenbers of the Council. We will comnmunicate them to our readers to-morrow. MADRID. JULY 28. All is perfectly tranquil in iMladrid. A perfect understanding eri,ts between thie superior French anel Spatiish Authlorities on the question of trying those who incited the scene (for at: account ofI vwhich Fee an extract below) wbicli took place on Sunday last, by a military commission. LFrom the Eteile of 'Wednesday.] PARIS, AuousT 4. The Council of M inisters w hich Mwas hel d yesterday at the resi dence of tire Count tie Villele, lasted until half past ten at night. An afflicting srene, similar to one which occurred a year ago, took ilace in Alarrid on the evening of Siinrlay, the 20th ult. It is nown that the quarter St. Antonio, the ortlirrary abode of soldiers, is too often disturbed by quarrels tvhicl arise in taverns. On this occasion, intoxication arid a yourng femnale brought into conflict some Frencii andl Spanish soldiers; 13 or 14 of whom were wounded: two or thiree dangerously. An irivestigation of this affltir is on foot. It has already been discovered that tlte quarrel was provokedl bv thirce young secret emissaries, whio liad persisted in insulting the Prentch soldiers during three days p,'eviously, witltotrt these tatter having given them the slightest cause of complaint. Two of these instiga- tors have been arrested; the thiir(d has fled. There is not thie least dotibt that the eternal enemies of orTier nra- naeuvre in secret to seduce tihe imprudent,and to disturb the hIarmiony which reigns between thesoldiers f thie two nartions. Nothing has beeis spared by the ill-designing to give an alarming importance to an event which was scarcely knrown in the other quarters 0or Madrid, since the presence of ttie Generals Digeon and Quresada was sufli. cient to restorepeace. Ilis Majesty the King of WVurteruberg, who is now at Marseilles, visited thp Port Dir udonne, and tire Castle of If, ors the 27th ult. On landing st Alont Redonr, Iis Mlajesty gave 300 francs to the boat- nien, and a dirarnond rinig to iAl. Estoupan, who is discharging, par interim, the functions of Captain of the port of Marseilles.
