The President interrupted the Counsel, and asked, whe ther the accustd had cited or designated any witnesses by name. M. Mauguin admitted, that his client had not designated any. Then continuing his objections, he insisted, 14 that there was no identity between the individual brought before the Council under the name of Charles Angelique.Wrancois de Labedoyere, and the prisoner; to whom the riamei of Charles Angelique had only been given." .t , `• An interesting part of the discussion turned on the ques tion whether the Ordinance of the 6th of March cbuld be applied. The rigorous terms of that Ordinance appeared to be mitigated by that of the 23d, and particularly by the Proclamation made by the King at Cambrai, dated the r,"th of June, on his entering France. In that Proclamation the King declared his intention to be, to deliver to the tri bunals only the authors and instigators of the horrible plot which had brought back Bonaparte. The Counsel had made a vague use of the words Treason and Rebellion. It should have been distinctly proved that Colonel Labedoyere was an author or instigator of the plot. M. Ricard, Procurcur du Rai, refuted these objections in their order. There was no incompetence in the second Council sitting at Paris. A formal law gave the War Mi nister the right v►hen there was no Council in one division, to refer the accused to such other Council as he should judge proper. With respect to the reference of the cause to the second instead of the first Council, the Governor, Count Alaison, had the right of making that substitution. The other al ledged grounds of objection did not appear to him sufficient to annul the proceedings. Ile consequently concluded by moving the Council to confirm the judgment. • At noon the Council withdrew to the Hall of Deliberation► and at one o'clock pronounced the &flowed judgment: " Considering that the second Council was competent, that the proceedings have been regularly conducted, and the law rightly applied, declares tinanimousty that the said judgment is confirmed, and that it shall have its full and entire execution." PARIS, Auca. 40.—Yesterday, at four in the afternoon. as the King was about to get into his' carriage, a lady, in deep distress burst through the crowd, and felt at his Majesty't feet, crying out, "Pardon, pardon, Sire!" She was . imme diately recognized to be Madame de Labedoyere.--" Ma- dame," said the King, " I know your sentiments and thine of your family, and never was it more painful to me t• pro nounce a refusal." Madame Labedciyere fainted ; proper remedies were immediately applied. The King got into his carriage with visible emotion. As the King was yesterday going out, Madame Labedovere fell at his feet, to solicit .her husband's pardon. The King replied, that if M. Lahedoyere had only offended him, his pardon should be granted; but that all Prance demanded the punishment of the man who . had brought upon her all the scourges of war. The King deigned to promise his protectiori to her and her child. • At six o'clock, when the King was returning from his ride, the mother of M. Labedovere was in the court of the Castle, to intercede with the King. Seeing that measures had been taken to prevent her from getting to the vestibule, and renewing a scene equally painful and useless, sbe retired.

It is generally thought that the Allied troops will begin to evacuate France the beginning of next month—it is added that they will depart in columns of 25,000 men. The opi nion is connected with another idea not less agreeable, which is, that the Treaty of Peace is concluded, and that it ensures the integrity of the French territory. Marshal Ney arrived yesterday morning at Paris, under the escort of two Officers of Genda!merie, who travelled in the .coach with him. Ile was first sent to the Prefecture of Police, and afterwards to the Conciergerie. A large quantity of English troops have just arrived at Montmartre to relieve or reinforce.tbe garrison of that fort. PARIS, Atm 21.—Marshal Suchet is to. leave Roanne. It •is not yet known where he will go to. The Prince of Orange wilt leave town this evening for the Hague, where be is•expectetl to arrive by the 26th. it being the hirth-day of the King of the Netherlands. This Prince will then go to the waters of Spa. Prince Frederick, his brother, remains at Paris. M. Lelorgne d'ldeville, one of the ancient Secretaries of the Cabinet of Buonaparte, was arrested at Melun, by order of the military authorities. A great number of French soldiers of all descriptions ar rive daily at Paris; the best spirit seems to animate them. They say that the most perfect order prevails throughout the army of - the Loire. They repair tranquilly to the officers Of the staff of this division, some in order to be incorparated in the new army, and others to obtain their demission, and to return to their departments. The body of Colonel Labedoyere has been carried to tl:e church-yard of Vaugirard. It is asserted that it is but pro visionally deposited there, as it is expected the family will remove it to some other burying place. I The Journals contain two remarkable facts, which ought not to be separated. All France, and all the foreigners hail their eyes fixed on the King, to discover whether his bound• would be carried so far as to pardon Labedoyere, or whether he would abandon him to his just sentence. The criminal hid the most ,interesting of mothers, a young and amiable wife, a child of tender age, a family attached to the B0:11'• bons, and who, as the numerous partisans of Btionaparte sad.•, always ready to justify attempts in favour of that Chief, st; are so attached. It doubtless was painful to the best of Kings to refuse to yield on any consideration. But coul.l he ? Ought he to have yielded ? No, the crime was in ts nature unpardonable. Labefloyere, loaded with favours by the Monarch, connected by his relatives with the Court, violated his oath, disobeyed his Chief, proclaimed rebellion, smoothed The road of the Usurper to the throne, and becan thereby one of the causes of the invasion of his country, a'ci of the incalculable evils which have been its consequence. Such a crime does not merely affect the person of the Kin,!, it is national, and public vengeance could only be satistiLd THE NAT IONAL. REGIS' 15El, %MIT& • • .. , . F T. • • i ' er e.', 547
