The extracts which we have given respecting the French Protestants pore, what was never doubted, that there was no persecution any where but in the neighbourhood of Nismes. They prove more—that the general odium—the expression of public opinion excited throughout Europe, by the enormities perpetrated at Nismes, have produced a beneficial effect. The anxiety manifested to give the crimes another complexion, augurs well for the peace of the world c it is, in fact, an avowal that perse- ' cation is not justifiablei—a pledge that, however indiscreet and intemperate some individuals may be, neither the KING nor the Government will give countenance to such a flagrant violation of the Constitution. We fully acquit the KING of the smallest pre'ions knowledge of the enormities that have been perpetrated, and We give him full credit for the protection promised to eff his subjects ; brit we will not easily be led to believe, that no inquiry ought to be made—that those who were murdered are still alive that the murderers ought not to be brought to justice, whether they killed their victims asSoaaitartistr or as liugonetn- • The affair of LAVALIMX still forms a topic of general conversation in Paris f but it is from private  , , • *this cidy that'ile'diga ill& die dirt ctiit:to it has given*rite. We havegiven a variety late deuils't 'we hays only 'to remina*Our Readers, that Matteis mere report in Paris *are liable:to much misrepreseatation, trotn the *caution izith 'which conversation'inust bi carried oft itt that capital. The.extracts which irellive inserted'in our columns are curious and interesting; and furnish some kind, of evidence that all is not quiet below the snrfaee.! Indeed some of the letters go so far as to hint that a conspiracy of it revolutionary nature has just bein detected; and to this discovery is attributed thels. suing of the order mentioned is the Paris loaperstfor patroling the streets, and a request made by the KING to the Duke of WaLusorota (mentioned in private letters) that the British troops may still continue to occupy the capital. The following is an extract of one of the letters to which we allude :  di I can inform you of a circumstance which :appose you cannot yet have heard of, the authenticity of which you may perfectly rely upon, as it came direct from the Duke of Wzt.r.tNcrrow. It relates to the detection of a conspiracy of coluideralle extent, and the troops are now certain to remain here some timelonger. Yesterday twenty-seven persons were taken into custody, but the Papers are quite silent upon the subject, and the examinations are priiate.— Thursday last was to have been the day for the commencement; and amongst the papers which have, been seized were the names and 'addresses of the, principal British Officers, as 'they were to have suffered first. Double Gtritrds are posted at the Thuilleries, as well as at all the other places; and since Thursday there has been extra guards of 200 men to patrole the streets. The utmost vizilancs is sued to heels Mini: pia."  A Mail from Holland arrived this morning. The only article worth notice in the Belgian Papers is a Decree of the King of PRUSSIA suppressing all secret societies, with a few exceptions in favour of some Mason Lodges which are specially enumerated, but cautioned against indulging in political assemblies.  ••• . • spa W biaibtay
