The curtain fell at last, and a French performance was promised to these conquerors of a few helpless, comedians : but they will not have miderstood- it, for they are not French, those who forget that generosity and courtesy form the charactenstic s of the French nation, The Journal des Debuts says that the Play was the School for Scandal, and that at the moment when the Actors appeared, the pit rose en masse, and turned its back to the stage. The Constitutions:el adds, that the Theatre was ultimately cleared by the Gendarmerie, as well as the Boulevards in the vicinity; that some :chafges were made, and that several individuals were wounded.  le ;tits and acts secret socL_ were included in the indictment, he may next send Commissions to examine the descantisados of Madrid, the Carbonari of Naples, the Radicals of England, or the Whiteboys of Limerick. A •ery curious exhibition took place in the Court on the 27thlultimo; one DESCHAMPS, an Officer of Gendarmerie, who had apprehended Taws', one of the prisoners, in Switzerland, deposed, that he heard of TELL= and WATTBLED being in a farm-house in the Canton of Berne; that he found the former in a loft, or granary; that, as he opened the door to enter it, be heard the report of a pistol, but whether fired within or without, he could not tell ; that, on entering, he saw WarraLan stretched on the floor, quite dead, his face covered with blood, and presenting the appearance of his having shot himself, by putting the pistol to his mouth ; and that he was told by TELLtzn that his comrade had committed suicide. Being asked if there wat any window in the loft ? he answered in the nesitive, though he seemed to see very well the countenance, attitude, ansftiren pistol -- the same fate, as soon as all the information which she can give shall be obtained from her. The number of Christian slaves for sale in the Bazaar of Constantinople was so great, that a lad has been sold for a small quantity of vegetables! Though that may appear improbable, it is not the less true." French Funds, Aug. 3. _Five per Cents. 92f. 40c.  The attempt of some of our Comedians to represent English Plays at Paris, has met with treatment so iliiberal as not only proves that the national prejudices of the French are as strong as ever, but that they have no claim to that character for politeness which they so vauntingly boast. Two of the first productions of two of our greatest dramatists, SIIAK• SPEARE and SHERIDAN, and compared with whom their CORNEILLES and MoLtzazs sink into insignificance, have been condemned unheard, and the actors treated with the most brutal indignity. It is true that the English Company, which was under the direction of Mr. PeemitY, was not, we believe, calculated to do us much credit for our histrionic talent ; but this was not the cause of the French hostility, for Othello, which was first attempted to be represented on Wednesday last, met with the most decided hostility from the rising of the curtain, and was actually got through in dumb chew. The masterpiece of SIiIaIDAN, the School for Scandal, was still worse treated on Friday night, as the actors were really driven off the stage; and " the females of the English troop," says a French Paper, •" were assailed by eggs, coins, and apples :" one of the Papers says potatoes were even thrown at them. So much for French gallantry and politeness. One of the French Papers attempts to palliate the conduct of his countrymen by stating that a French Theatre is not authorised but only tolerated in England ; but this very circumstance shews the difference of the national character; in England the liberality of the Public neutralizes the restrictions of the laws, while in France the prejudices and hostility of the people defeats the liberality of the Government. But as to the treatment of the French in England,  'HE
