FROM THE. FRENCH PAPERS.  The Comic?. Francais gives a letter addressed to it by a subscriber, who signs his name " Charles," from which we make the following extracts : " I am one of a small number of persons who were admitted at ten on Thursday evening to view the chamber in which the ..Duku of Orleans rendered his last sigh. The house is only one story high, faces the road, and is painted red, like most of those which are used as wine-shops. The first room serves as the shop. Some drawers with packets of drugs over a counter which confines the passage, are the only furniture. It was used as a small grocer's shop. A narrow door leads into a back shop, in which the Prince Royal of France expired. • A table covered with oil-cloth' for the drinkers, two chairs, a small earthen-ware stove with a zigzag funnel, standing in the middle, some vessels for cooking hung against the wall, which was naked, an old musket; and two brass candlesticks, placed on a large stone chimney-piece blackened with smoke and filled with a stove, at which Lecordier and his wife dressed their meals. Such is the composition of this room, which is twelve feet square. It was between- the stove and the end wall, on two mattrasses brought in haste, that the illustrious sufferer was laid-his head near the stove, and his feet towards another door leading to a staircase. The room was lighted by a dilapidated window' the lower part of which opened into a yard covered with a fetid heap of dung. The Duke of Orleans never appeared -for a moment to recover his senses ; his eyes were, hoWever, constantly open but fixed. It is not true that he rendered blood, but at one time vomited copiously, from which he seemed to be much relieved, and this it was that gave a momentary hope." . The Moniteur Algerein, of the 9th inst., mentions the arrival' at Algiers- Of the crew of the Austrian vessel the Falmar, composed of Captain Vianello, his son, and six sailors, who were wrecked on the coast of Gigelly last January, and fell into the hands of the Kabyles. On the . demand of the Consul, M. Peloso, and with the authorisation' of the GovernorGeneral, negotiations for the ransom of these persons were brought to a happy conclusion by the aid of General Negrier, the officer in command of the province of Constantino.  The Sud of Marseilles gives an account of the triple crime of attempted parricide, fratricide, and self-destruction, committed by a young man, a butcher, in that city. Actuated by a feeling of jealousy against his younger brother, the assassin, taking advantage of his father being asleep, dealt him a heavy blow with a club on the head. Believing that he 'had accomplished his murderous purpose, he immediately JepayecLAß public abbatoir • where his bro, fifer Anp.loled; and suddenly attaded him •!with--)it—pengriard. A desperate struggle ensued ; , but Vounger -- brother at length was overpowered, inki •fell dead, bathed in Iris blood. The assasMn then attempted to destroy himself with his knife, but it appears' he wanted courage' to complete the act. 1-le was arrested and taken to prison, where-he soon after :accomplished his purposed act-of Suicide by, strangulation. The father is considered to be, in a fairsay of recovery. • 'he spinning: manufactory at Rollepot - reNent, the Pas ,clA,Culais, belonging to Messrs. C. Laherard and Go., -Vas three days 'agb reduced' to ashes. The fire .was' perceived between eleven 'and twelve .at night; and, assistance, was' imniediatelfafforded by personsof all classes, but the flames rag4l so fiercely that in a few hours there remained oflll4 main building nothing' but a heap of ruins. • The kiss, is estimated at 500,000 fr. A violent clap `of thundef.., was heard a little before the fire .burst out, and it, results from the „inquiry which > has taken place, that, the disaster was measioned by the electric fluid.
