apers of Thursday have arrived ) und thin
lorning we received those of Friday. Another
Tench general (Gruycr) has been scntenccd to
e shot for the rcl>ellion of March, 1815, and the
idiculoiis farce of trying marshal Grouchy, who
4 absent, is goinu on.
Several individuals havo been carried before
lie tribunala accused of having stolen about a
liousand weight of gunpowder from one of the
overniucnt maga/.ine?, and Bold it to lluggieri,
ue fireworker.?The carriage which conveyed
having been stopped ut Montmartro on the
silt nit. gave rise to
ion* and coinuientar
or was greatly magnified
aid to have been coutrivcd by couspirators a
ainst the stale.
Paris Journal* to the 1st instant, and a Flan
er? mail, have arrived this morning. The as*
?;i lion in the previous Palis papers which we
id not notice, knowing it to bo untrue, that our
uiliuHBador, sir Charles Stuart, was to bo repla
ed, in now contradicted from authority. The
alunlile services of that gontlemau cannot yet
e dispensed with. The duke of Wellington is
xpeeled ut Paris, wlie're it is supposed lie will
umniu till September, his grace having made all
u: necessary arraignments on tho frontiers.?
v considerable chaiigo is operating in the tam
er, the vigilance, and tho vigour of the French
ovcrmncnt, since the explosions at Grenoble
nd elsewhere. This we find proved more by
ur private letters than by the public journals.
Tnerc is one important paragraph in these pa
era, under tlic head of Vicuna, which commen
ts the report tlint the Russian ariny is to be
cut upon the war footing.
Pho king of France has very properly distri
uted the forfeited property ol the rebellious la
lily of Bonaparte among tne soldiers and officers
ho had lost the pensions earned by their wounds
i battle, and lius in this respect made no dis
notion between the royalists of La Vendee and
?one who lad served under Uonapartc prior to
e lirst restoration.
J i nk 6.?From the Pari* journals wo have
in day made boiiic further extracts. A tnisun
?rhtanding had arisen between the Swedish
mrt and the Forte. To tho approaching diet
Frankfort is to be referred a dispute between
ustria and Sardiniu, respecting the fortresses
Italy. These subjects, together with the dia
ites in Wirtemburg anil Baden, which will
me before the same diet, will aftbrd oppor
uities for the mediation of Russia and the other
eat powers. " We are concerned to state,"
y* the Hath paper of this morning,44 that a dis
?sitioti to tumuli exhibited itself among the low
classes at Yeovil on Tuesday, but, by thetem
ratc conduct of the principal inhabitants, it
is suppressed w ithout any material damage
ing done." Wc understand, that the state
?nt which has appeared in several of the pa
rs, of the appointment of the earl of Dulhousic
governor and cuiniimnder in chief of Nova
^?otia, is erroneous, Prince A tunny of Saxony
? - expected to renounce his claim to the iuhcri
ice of that crown, in favor ol' prince Maxlml
? n, who i* about to marry an Austrian archdu
es?.
J ink Pi.?Tho Paris papers of Sunday* last
rived this forenoon. Wo.were in expectation
:*y would have brought uh the judgment of the
uueil of war on general llonnaire and his aid
-camp, who have been undergoing their trial
the assassination of col. CJurdon at Comic.?
ic papers indeed, furnish us with the conclu
iu of the trial, which terminated on Saturday;
t the council hat! not delivered its decision,
ving retired to deliberate* and the sentence
oulu not be made public till next day. Oor
m, we believe, wv not an Knglishman, though
? name might imply a British extraction, ne
is in the king of France's service } nml like his
other, who has been publishing the lettors a
ut him, appears to have been a zealous parti
n of the liourbous.
The duke of Wellington has arrived in Paris,
ttlo importance is attached to this visit, llis
ace's audience with tho king seem to lie mat
's of roursc, and it is in tho nature of ltourbon
mciations to mix the hcr<? of Waterloo with
sir happiness. Some consequence seems na
-ally attached to the change spoken of iu tho
tsftiun representation at Paris. It is cxpcctcd
it M. Po/./odi 11 or go will he recalled from his
domatie situation at the court of France, and
receded by count Woronzow, the commander
the Russian contingent.
An extraordinary tlegree of activity prevails
the French naval departments. Tnc ('vbcle
?ate has sailed from llrest for Newfoundland,
ere she is to be stationed, with two sloops of
r, for the protection of the fishery. The tri
ofDidicr, the ostensible teailer of the insur
?tion at Grenoble, has commenced. The
eitch funds are a few cents under GO.
Russian papers to tho 10th, and Hamburgh
zettcs to the 5th, have been received and
night rather an important piece of intelligence,
n whole Russian army, which has hitherto
tii stationed on the frontiers, especially to
ids Turkey, is dissolved ; and the troops of
ich it was composed have commenced their
rch to the remote provinces of tho Russian
pire.
Saturday, the 22d inst. is (he day fixed for
marriage of the duke of Gloucester with the
neess Mary.
Kmbnrgoin Canat/a.?Major-general Wilson,

" On tho night of tho 15th, the Superb, com
ma tided bjr Capt. Kccts, anchored oft' Algiers,
having Mi*. Falcon, the consul general on board,
and a letter from I?ord Nelson to tho Doy de
manding that Mr. Falcon should again be recei
ved as consul there, und that all the Maltese
who had been captured by the Dey'a cruisers,
should be liberated and given up as British sub
jects. On the following morning at day break,
a salute waa fired from the Kurt, which, howe
ver, Capt. Keats did not roturn, but sent a lieu
tenant on shore with a letter to request an au
dience of thu Dcy, which was accordingly grant
ed. Captain Keats, accoinpanicd by Mr. Scott,
chapluin to Lord Nelson, who speaks tho Ara
bic. fluently, and who acted as interpreter, wait
ed upon the Dcy and presented I?ord Nelson's
letter, with a suitable and spirited remonstrance
on the occasion. Throughout the interview,
which lasted nearly an hour, the Ooy's conduct
was verv violent and outrageous, and it conclu
ded with his punitive refusing either to receive
Mr. Falcon buck again, or to give up any of the
[ Maltese in his possession.
On the irth, in the morning, our fleet of ten
nail of the line, catnc in sight of Algiers, when
Capt. Keats again went on shore to wait upon
the Hey, who, however, refused to see Aim. he
being busily employed on the batteries, and af
ter waiting for nearly two hours, Capt. Keats re
turned on board, ana our fleet entering the bay,I
Capt. Keats wcut.on board thu Victory and com-j
municated to Lord Nelson all that had passed
with the Dcy.
Under theso circumstanccs, (what would
Decatur have dune V) his Lordship did not think
it advisable to attempt further intercourse with
the Dey, or to make uso of any threat he was
not prepared to realize. We therefore, to day,
left Jlliriera, on our way to Toulon again !!

Kt tract from tho "JSciul of ?V. Decatur ami fP. Shatcr,
rUite cotitill there) tinted JJ. S. Ship iiucrricre, Hoy of
.fti*irr?, July 4% tBt3.
"The little advance squadron of 3 frigate*, 1
sloop and 1 brie, had arrived off Algiers on the
38th of June. On the 29th ultimo, a flag of truce
was hoisted on board of the Guerrlere, with the
Swedish fla^ at the main. A boat came oft' a
bout noon with Mr. Norderliug, consul of Swe
den, and the Captain of the port, who confirm
ed the intelligence we had before received, and
to whom we communicated information of the
capture of their frigate and brig. The imprest*!-1
on made by these events wan visible uuu deep.
[The Capt. of the pott then requested that hosti
lities should cease pending the negociation, and
. that person* authorised to treat should go in
there, he and Mr. Norderliug both affirming that
the minister of marine pledged for our security
! and return to our ships when we pleased, llotn
I these propositions were rejected. On the follow
lowing day the name persons returned and in
formed us*that they were commissioned by the
Iky to treat with us on the proposed bains, and
their anxiety appeared extreme to conclude the
peace immediately. We then brought forward
the model of a treaty, &c. They were of opinion
it could not be agreed to in its present form and
Iiarticularly requested that the property which
tail been distributed, might lie expunged, alledg
ing that such a demand nud never before been
made upon Algiers, &c. and that if the treaty
was signed we would engage to restore tho cap
tnred vessels, which we refused.
44 They then requested a truce, to deliberate
upon the terms of the proposed trcuty, which
was refused. They even pleaded lor three hours;
the reply was, not a minute. If your squadron
appears in sight before the treaty is actually
signed by the Dey and the nrisoners sent ofK
ours would capture them. It was filially agreed
that hostilities should cease, when we perceived
their boat coming off with a white flag hoisted,
the Swedish consul pledging his word of honor
not to hoist it unless the treaty was signed and
the prisoners in the taut. They returned on
Hhore, and although the distance was full five
miles, they came back within three hours with
the treaty sigucd as we had concluded it, and
the prisoners. They now show every depositi
on to maintain a sincere peace with us, wliich is
doubtless owing to the dread of our urmu."

The Georgetown Messenger of the 10th ult.
mentions the establishment of a woollen factory
at the Littlo Full* of Potomac, and makes wimo
remarks on tho policy of supporting It, apnlica
blo to every part of tho eastern, middle anu wes
tern states; ami by no means uninteresting to us
in the Souths?'" The inhabitants of the District
of Columbia, and all who are anxious for the re
al independency of tho country, will learn, with
pleasure, that an extensive woollen manufacto
ry is now in complete oitcration at tho Little
Katla of the Potomac. We understand that all
sorts of woollens are made in a style of excel
lcnce which docs great credit to tho state of our
manufactures. Of one most important article
we can speuk from our own knowledge. We
have just seen point blank-tin, manufactured en
tirely out of American wool obtained in tho
neighborhood, which, as far as wo are ablo to
iudge, aro decidedly suncrior to any foreign
blankets of tho same kind. In this we speak
without rcservo t they are softer and warmer,
and better in appearance. These blankets, we
arc told, can be sold us low as the English blun
kcts.
t 41 We arc interested in tho success of this
manufactory. Besides the political benefits
which result to tho nation from establishments
which render us iudo|>erident of foreign supplies,
especially in articles of necessity, we, who live
in tho neighborhood, may look for other advan
tages wliicli belong peculiarly to ourselves. The
commercial portion of us will find, in this esta
blishment, an important auxiliary in the promo
tion of our views for obtaining the country
trade j inasmuch as good and cheap blankets (to
say nothing of other articles of manufacture)
are commodities of tho first importance with
country dealers. And the agriculturalists will
find in the steady demand which this manufac
tory will afford for our wool, certain encouruge
incuts and a liberal reward for raising sheep.
And this, in its turn, will have its effect on the
price of meat in the daily markets of Washing
ton and Georgetown."
Tho secretary of the treasury lias addressed

and paid in legal currency of the United States,)
Treasury Notes, or mites of the bank of the
United States, or in notes of bank's which are
payable and paid on demand in the legal cur
rency of the United Statoa"?the following
ftttei will be adopted : via.? That from and
after the 1st day of October next, bank notes of
the denomination of live dollar*, and under,
shall not bo received in any payment to the
United S^tcs, for debts, duties, or taxes, unless
such arc payable and paid on demand in the legal
currency of the United States, by the banks
respectively issuing the same.?-2d. That, from
j and after the 1st day of Octobcr next, bank
' notes of whatever denomination issued by any
bank which docs not pay upon demand its notes
of the denomination of live dollars, and under,
in the legal currency of the United States, shall
not be received in' any payments to the Uni

Emigration.?-Almost every vessel from Ire
laud brings out passengers, who come to enjoy
our liberty n,,d plenty, and add to our wealth
and atrcngth. The Kditor of the New-York
Shamrock says," I have conversed with several
Ittssengers lately from Ireland. Their descrip
tion oftheir country is truly deplorable. With
out trade, commercc or manufactures ; agricul
ture brought to so low a state, that the pro
duce of tho soil would not pay the rent, nor re
munerate the tiller t tenants beggarded, and
their cuttle sold by the landlords at half the price
at which they wero purchased ; tho landlords
themselves receiving but a moiety of their rent*,
and often compelled to re-enter the lands which
have been deserted or surrendered by the te
nants : taxes enormous \ church oppression < the
peoplo scarcely existing at home, arc unv trie to
procure a passago to America. 1 drop the pic
ture. There is but one substantial relief t may
thnt be soon ; may Ireland be free and indepen
dent.
" The state of Kngland seems little better than
that of Ireland. There hunger and poverty have
produced discontent and insurrection ; tho hay<
onet is the remedy offered by tilts government j
the boasted loyalty of the KngUshman was ever
connected with his interest* and it will be in
vain to expect that he will bo pleased with tho
glittering shew of a royal marriage, or tho hun
dred suits of rich dresses which encumber the
wardrobe of tho royal bride, while rags and
empty dishes await'him at homo) nor is he
bound to be loyal to a government which* by A
serif* of errors and crimen^ haft involved the
country in inoxtricablo misfortune. Ruin awaits
the government of Kngland * nnd It is quite pos
sible that Knglifchmcn will execute tho punish
ment it so fully merits."
