LONL)ON: et ti t, 19(43 SUNDAY, DECEMBER to, 1818. We yesterday received the Paris Papers of Wednes day . last. The Funds on Tuesday were 63f. 75e. In the Chamber of Deputies they were occupied merely with veryfying the qualifications of the newly elected MembsTs. Many of them not having furnished the necessary proofs, their admission into the Chamber tvaspostponed till they proc:ueed them to the Committees appointed for the purpose of examining them. Baron Cardonneau, elected for the department of the Landes, having lost his papers, after his arrival at Paris, had to wait till lie could procure fresh ones. M. Manuel de clinal procuring any proof, as Deputy for the Depart ment of Finisterre, as he decided upon taking his scat tbr La Vendee, for which purpose we furnished the requisite document. M. Candle Jordan's admission was postponed, because he had not shown that he paid taxes to the amount of 100 francs. He had stated his ability to furnish the required proof. The Chamber then proceeded to elect, by ballot, five Candidates; from which number the Chamber would Dominate a President. M. Raves and M. do Serre were returned as the first and second Candidates. The scrutiny for the return of the three ethers was to be proceeded in on NVednesday. The fi,liowing are extracts from these Papers : " MADRID, DEC. S.—The various Corps of the State arc eager to etre: tc. , the King their congratulations on the occasion of tile pregnancy of the Queen, by the celebration of religious ceremonies for her happy de livery; her Majesty has aJv.wec , l to her ninth month; and tar several days 'past the Diplomatic COV I /S have received notice to be in readiness to attend at a mo- incnt's notice.

We have received Duteh and Ha mburgh Mails bringing papers respectively to the 16th and 13th inst. It appears, that ilia mill-pox is committing urines ravages at tlie Haga*. In the course of the last month no less than SO persons (lied of it. It has also appeared aA °Udell art er,. and scum other places. I-lis Royal !Ugliness the MIL: of Gloucester is.ex pected to return to London, by the way of Frankfort and Paris. Eer An article, dated Hanover, Dee. 8, says, that " Nlaje.uy the late Queen of England has bequeathed . jewcls to a guar amount to the House of Brunswick. It is also stated that these and the jewels bequeathed by her Majesty to the crown of Hanover, are those which, us we learn, her Majesty received upon her marriage, from the above reigning - Houses." " JUTLAND, I)ne. 7.—A Spanish transport, with abont '2OO Russians on lmard, belonging to the three last frigates given by Russia to SI sin, is stranded near Slagcn. The people are saved, with the exception of two officers and six men." The necessary preparations are making in Poland, flr the reception of the Russian troops which arc ex pected there on their homeward march from Fraoce. The weather is so mild at Copenhagen, that many flowers growing in the open air, are in blossom. Wall flowers, pinks, auricular, mignionette, are in bloom again. Oats, that were sown in August are in ear in December. A German mail came to hand on Friday. Complaints are made in the Vienna papers of the mischievous ten dency of a certain " Memoir on the State of Germany," the circulation of which has been ascribed to an official foreigner, who sent it about, with some appearance of mystery, during the Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle. The object which the Vienna journalist reproaches the author of the tract in question with aiming at, is the further abridgment of the liberty of the press throughout the German states, amongst which he pretends that all manner of evil is concentrated. The Archduke Ferdi nand, who commands in Hungary, and the Duke of Wellington, are appointed Field Marshals in the Austrian service. The Emperor Francis and the Em press have returned to Vienna. By a Convention between Denmark and Prussia, recenily concluded, it is declared, that' in case of War I.etween the two powers, " the merchants on both sides shall be respected.''— This convention, though professedly framed for so liberal and•humane a purpose, will, we imagine, have little efficacy inasmuch as it is not to be enforced on either side, except under the circumstance of actual war—a state of things by which all treaties of every kind are superseded ; unless, indeed, boa parties find it for their interest to observe them. It is said of the celebrated Rothschild, that he had the sagacity, previous to the late fall in the French and Prussian Stocks, to sell out of the former At the price of nearly 80, and to get rid of the latter at a 10 per cent. premium. The four brothers, who compose the firm of Rothschild, have been successively admitted among the German Nobility, with the title of Baron de Rothschild, by the Emperor of Austria, and by the King of Prussia. Extract of a letter from the agent. to Lloyd's at Gibraltar, dated '23d ult. —" By letters received here from Tunis, by his Excellency the Tunisian Ambas sador, it is announced that a contagious discare has made its appearance in that city, hut it was not as certained whether it is the plague. or a fever similar to that stated to have raged there a few years back. By the last accounts from Tangiers, receiveJ here un the 17th inst., the plague still continued to rage with great violence ; the number of deaths from the 3d to the 16th inst. inclusive amounted to 272. It also rages at Arzilla, and has extended itself to a village near Larache, named Hadael Furhia. At Teluan and Mcquinez, a disease is raging, supposed also to be the plague.' We have the pleasure to congratulate the country on the safe return of every individual of the British Con ,. tingent of the late Army of Occupation in France ; and we should be deficient in our duty, it' we suffered the opportunity to pass, without paying a well-merited compliment to the Officers of his Majesty's Navy, to whom were entrusted the arrangements fur embarking the troops and horses at Calais. To the unwearied zeal and unremitting .attention.of these Officers, under Pro ; a ide a ca, we owe it, that 29,700 men, 2900 women, 2,800 children, and 7,700 horses, were shipped on bussed the .trunsparts in Calais harbour, in 28 .days, -withput.ittauctli , eotel•eing• two days witlain the time prescribed by Government. ~IIAI~~I~'; ~vo~! 3~.~ IEC. 20 An embargo has been 'ordered at Cadiz and some other ports, upon ships all certain size, for .the.tra► is. port of the troops, which are so be sent immediately , fo South America ; the expenses' of every description which may be incurred by them will be paid by the owners of the ships. There is a very odd rumour in circulation in This capital, about the arr,val of a personage, who, kis supposed, has been sent ty the Coneress utla-Cha. pelle with some comtuission to King Eerdinand;: . and the most curious thing is, that a great many Nopre, who think themselves very well inflirtned in political matters, arc very busy in making conjectures about the subject of this strange message.* A. M. Santurio, (on whose information M. tale° de Rozors and several others had been imprisoned,) who was in one of the cells of the gaol called de Corte, knowing that M. Cairo was in another close by, begun to cry out as hind as he could, begging M. Calvdtfior giveness for this wicked and false information, which, he added, he was persuaded to give by the intreatirs and promises an official personage. This affitir has oecasimed a great deal of unctovs4 to the party con cerned in it. We arc sormunded here with spies and informers; no one dares to communicate his opinions to another; from hence flows a want of confidence, which we can. not find e‘ords to describe. 1 ice evils which are pre. duced by the sconage of the human race are of such a kind, that no person, however high his rank, is secure against its attacks. A report is whispered, with great mystery, that a plot of these viliuius has been disco. - venal, the object of which was to implicate different grandees of Spain, and the Captain General of New.! Castile, Don Gaspar de Vigodet, in a charge ofilesigu. ing to subvert the existing Government, and to ruhsti.e , tote in its stead an oligarchy like that of Venice. The •' number of perams intended to be affected by this infernal:: plot amounts, it is said, to 60, besides several othertr, who are accused of agreeing to eo-operate with theni. The whole scheme is reported to have been organized by persons in office, who, however, are merely instru. ments in the hands of the clerical faction, at the head of which are the Pope's Nuncio, the Patriarch of the Indies, and the Inquisitor General. The state of this country is dreadful. The roads are infested with robbers to such a degree, that travelling, even fbr the shortest distance, is unsafe. The poverty of the people is overwhelming, the want of money severely felt, and every thing announces un- approach. .1 jog and inevitable catastrophe. • [There was a report at Aix-la-Chapelle of an autograph louts having been sent to King Ferdinand from the Allied Soveuips, is which the Splash King was advised to change his measures.] TIIE QUEEN'S WILL, &c.—lt !law appears certain that her late Majesty had no other property to bequeath but her diamonds : they are to be divided ammo. the Ptinc,,sses, in equal proportions. A valuation has been taken, and these; jewels are estimated at little short of a million sterling. The codicil to the will disposes of the Queen's ready money, viz. four thousand pounds ! The other property, namely, the wardrobe, goes to the unmarried daughters ; it is very valuable ; tin. a Lady of high rank, many years attached( to the Household, observed, " Ikr Majesty was the richest Queen in Europe in wardrobe." The Prince Regent has appointed Major General Taylor to ;he office of Master of St. Kutharine's I los pital, near the Tower, vacant by the death of the lute Major Deribrowe. Colonel Joseph Wheatley is appointed Groom of the Bedchamber, in the room of the late Colonel Bradyll. The Earl of Aberdeen has received the Prince Re gent's permission to Use the name of Hamilton, in addition to that of Gordon, as a memorial of respect tbr the late Marquis of Abercorn. It is said that the Earl of Harrowbv's nomination as Ambassador to Paris will be followed by a change in the home department also, Lord Sidmouth resigning the office of Sccretacy of State, and succeeding Lord Harrowby as President of the Council. Should the above arrangement take place, Mr. Peel is talked of by some persrns as Lord Siihuouth's successor. CITY BUSINESS.—A Court of Aldermen was held on Tuesday, at Guildhall, for the public deapateh 'of general business, which was well attended Riebard Rozb well, Esq. who was unanimously chosen to to Alderman oC Cheap Ward, in the room of the late Mr. Alderman Goodbchcre, attending, was introduerd to the Court in doe firma, and atter taking the usual oaths took his scat ucaordingly —A resolution was unanimously agreed to, expressive of the feelings and sympathy of the Court, and of condolence with his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, and the other branches of the Royal Family, upon the demise of her lute Majesty. Thc ,, gh the Messrs. Baring were the principal Con tractors for the lust French Loan, yet, it is understood, that the. whole of it was on account of 'their friends ; and that, in consequence, Ne4o.Baring be.no sui&rers by the, rapid fall which has taken place.
