THE NATIONAL REG ISTEIL LONDON: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1818. Wr yesterday received the Paris Papers of Tuesday and Wednesday last, from which we have rnade the following extracts:— PAnts SEPT. B.—" Yesterday the King transacted business with the Minister of Foreizn Affairs. His Ma jesty afterwards tool: an airing to Rainey. " The summons, by virtue of which Lieut. General Donnadieu was examined &fore the Judge D'lnstruc lion, was not followed by any other judicial mandate, and this officer remains at liberty. This morning a printed request has been circulated, signed by Baron Vanuel, MM. de Chappedelaine, de Rieux Stingy, de Romilly, de Joannis, and M. Berrycr, jun. Its object s to solicit a prompt report respecting their afiltir from the Juge D'lnstruction. SEPT. 9.—" It is asserted that Lord Stanhope, so eelebrated for his parliamentary speeches and phillipics against France, has recently arrived in l'aris. MA DR n, Ana. .2 —" Gen. Count de l'Abishal has lel", this earital for Cadiz, to tal:e the c!munand ri the grc.at expedition destined for Atneriaa, the preparations of which are carrying on with reserved activity." German Papers also arrivel yesterday, Their con tents are not very interesting. The Emperor of Rus sia, according to an article from St. Petersburg, is expected to return to his capital in the course of De cember. If so, it would follow that the Congress at Aix-la-Chapelle does nut anticipate many intricate questions to decide upon. We have received New York and Boston Papers to the 16th ult. The execution of Arbuthnot and Am bristic continues to engross much of the public attention in the United States. An article, upon the subj::ct, has been copied into nearly all the Trans-atlantic jour nals, from the Democratic Preis. It is written with impartial ability, and as it represents the case in several new and important lights, we arc atcmpted to male a few extracts from it : " The question of Arbuthnot being executed as a spy, is answered by the Court Martial acquitting him on this charge. Hut what shall we say of the fate of Ambristic ? It app.m.s from General Jackson's titvn order on the subje..t, that he Wi:11 snot in ti.irect opposi tion to the stutence of the Court. It is true, that. Tim NATIONAL BEGISTEIt. the Court in the first instance entered up judgment (.f death against. him ; but before the proceed ings bad been laid before the General, the Court rescinded that judgment, and sentenced the prisoner to flogs ed and imprisoned. General Jackson, however, iu the plenitude of his power, dashed his pen across the sentence, and ordered the wretched victim to instant •execution " Suppose the Court had a right to try these men, about which there is much reason to doubt, and let it also be supposed that the Court, instead of flogging and imprisonment, had sentenced Ambristk to be shot, still the question will recur, why this indecent hurry on the part of the Commander in Chief? Why were not the two cases rcferr to the Prcrident for his decision? By the 65th Article of War, Act of Congress, 10th April, 1814, it is expressly enacted, that no rentence of a Ge neral Court Martial, in time of peace, extending to the loss of life, shall be carried into execution until the whole proceedings shall be laid before the President of the United States for his approval, and orders in the rase.' l'o this it may be objected that these men were executed in time of war :—The reply to this is, that war must be declared by the Congress of the United States, not by a General in Chief." Frankfort Papers have arrived to the Ist inst. The Ausiriun Observer contradicts. in the most full and solemn manner, the rumour put into circulation by one of the Flanders Journalists, of an attempt to as sassinate young. Napoleon. The Germanic Diet has resolved that. for the next five years, the quotas of the different States, in men and in money, shall be regu lated upon the basis of their population. A Ccnsas is annexed to the Ikerce, from which it appears, that the Germanic confArary edibra,:es a population of 00,091,050 RAIN. Ity the I•'landers null, we hava a r:port that ar rangements arc already making for the sale of a num ber of the Errglish artillery and commissarint horses, preparatory to the return of our troops from the conti nent, The French Government, it was supposed, would purchase the horses of the Russian corps. d'armee. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge arrived at Hanover o'l the 28th August. The Washingiva Ger..Y.':! contains an interesting State Paper, if we could persuade ourselves to beiieve that it was genuine is Solo, or correct in the detail It professes to be t:ireetions from Joseph Buonaparte • daring his occupatinn of the Spanish Peninsula, fur the purpose of revolutionizing Spanish America. The first remarkable pxsage in it is that in which King Joseph asserts, that the Government of the United States had agreed to furnish him with the munitions of war. This may even be suil by such a person as Joseph Buonaparte or his brother Napoleon, and yet not be true ; as neither of those northies was emL len tly re markable for his veracity : but when we.coine to 6'3 passage wherein the turaler is directing his agents to bribe the servants of the Spaniards in power, who opposed his proi-..tt3, to poison their masters, oe.: credence fails. Either the whole, therefore, is a fa brication, or some ingenious person has inserted this last trait in order to rendzr the prodasaion more spi rited. Lord Castlerengh, on lanr.A. at Calais, proceeded inmiediatety to -Cambrin •where be remained but a very short time, and ptcceeti.Nl to Belgium. It is be lieved that, b.2iime the opealong of the Congress at Aix la-Chapelle, he will go to Spa, in order to have a con ference with Prince ilardenberg, and with Prince Met ternich too, who, as the liters from Germany state, intends also to r..•par to that place. The prevalence of harmony is more than ever remarked between the Ca binets of [minion, Vicuna, and Berlin, and their Mi nisters at the different Courts. Extract of a letter received in Glasgow, dated et Buenos-Ayres, June 5 :—" Fur some time past sales have been nearly at a stand, in consequence of a re port that a considerable abatement was intended in our importation duties. We have now the pleasure to advise you, that it has been carried into effect, and ac company herewith a correct copy of our tariff. We dou t not that this reduction will produce a very bene ficial effect on our trade." [The tariff' limns a large pamphlet. The duties are generally reduced une third, and in some cases-one half.] Extract of a letter, dated Preston, Sept. 9 :---`e We are very unpleasantly situated here with our work people, the weavers, who demand 7s. in the pound on their present wages, in consequence of the non-compli ance of the master., who appear in this neighbourhood to be giving to the public as much as they can nfliwd.: still we are of opinion that the wages will be pushed up equal to frora 2.. 1 4 to 5 per cent. on the cloth, and that before a lung time elapses; as this tulva:;;;e has been acceded to in different parts of the country, par tieularly in those parts where the rate of wages was previously lower than With na, and where they are uow higher than we pay." INDIA. --o STPT. r 3 • The Asiatic Mirror of the lith April Communicates a number of curious particulars respecting the state of politics in the East. It seems that, nutwithstutuling the friendly professions of the Rajah of Berar to the British Government, and the signal forbearance with which he had been treated, some proceedings of a dark and treacherous, as well as a highly dangerous charae ter, were brooght home to that incorrigible Mahratta Chieftain. While in pursuance of formal conventher he was issuing public orders to his officers fur the deli very of his forts to the British army, it was discovered from an intercepted correspondence, that he seeretiy encouraged the Killedars and Commandants to gain time by every possible expedient, and evade the sue. render to the last. uhe same spirit of duplicity anti perfidy was detected in un intercourse he muintained with Bajee Row (formerly our friend the Peishwa).--- This chief, it is known, after escaping the Generale Smith and Pritzler, was marching directly towards Nagpore. From the intercepted letters it appeared. that the Rajeli had determined to take an unexpected leave of the British, and throw himself into the arma of his worthy Ally. Oar Resident, therefiTe, on finds ing his suspicions of this false act confirmed by unvee. tionable documents, sent the Rajah a polite invitation to converse with him at the Resideney His Highneas, thinking proper to refuse the desired interview, was seized in his palace by three companies of British troops, and sent off under a strong escort to Allahalxvl, wher'e it was pr.'stuncd he would find his way to Caleu tta.— A tried friend of the Company's Government is said in have been placed on Cie Musnud of Nagpore, as secs. ceisor to this refractory and ungrateful Rajah, who had been indebted for his own sovereil„eny to the favour and indulgence of Great Briteiu. Air ounts were received at Nagpore on the 2Gth March, that General Smith had come upon Bake Row by surprise, and that, in an encounter which followed, the famous Gold* fell. This circumstance, however, if it really happened, does not seem to have checked the progress of B :jet! Row, or at least to have altered the direction of his movements.— We find by the advices sent, that, on the 11 th of April. a general belief prevailed at Nnpore, that Bajee Row was advancing thither " with an im:nouse iheee," (this we take to be a mere figurative expression), thee he had already reached Jaulnah, and would be in the neighbourhood of Nag-pore by the 24th of the month. The purpose of this extraordinary movement was pro. ',ably to reunite under the old Peishwa banners all the scattered bodies of Mahratta troops, beaten as they were, and nominally disbanded, which had been o::- gaged in the service of the Rajah, or even of the Chiefs to the northward of Neriauldah who had siemed forced treaties with the Governor General. Aitholgh we have little room to question the final result of this parently desperate undertaking to the Peishwa, it would be unfair to withhold the applause of a soldier from the holdneis mid t!ecision of these military coon. sels which could slg,, ,, est to Bajee llow a march of little less than 500 mi!es (for such is the distance from Hs capital to Nagpore), with an active assailant harrassing his rear, and the country in front and on every side of him in the hands of a victorious enemy. :t is plain that, throughout the ‘vbele operations cif this war, a greeter weight of embarrassment fell upon Lord Has•• tmgs, from the unexampled bad faith of the Mahratta Chiefs, than from the skill or courage of their armies.. Every one of them practised the mast revolting insin. cerity. The Peishwa in the first instance accused his own officers of disobedience ; and shut his eves to the recruiting which they carried on extensively in his name. The Rajah of Nagpare followed this previous example, and carried his Mahratta chicanery so far ns to yield his own person to the British authorities, while the whole force of his dominions was drawn up against them ; and they were compelled to gain by battle the guns which the Rajah had solemnly sworn to surrender. flue younger Holkar, after his decisive overthrow, as cribed the previous necessity of fighting to the mutmous spirit of his soldiers! and Seindiah's hypocrisy left Au bloody traces behind it, only because he was already conquered before he had time to move. The Pindar rees are annihilated us a predatory power; and it is fortunate that they are so. Their increasing crimes and numbers, backed by the four great Mahraita Sovereign ties, would have been altogether inconsistent with the peace of India and might have proved ruinous to the stability of our Asiatic empire, had not both been sea sonably and effectually guarded by the vigorous policy of the British local Government in the East. An ad dition of 5,000 men to our military establishment in India is looked upon in these accounts us likely to be authorised on the representatious of the Governor Ge neral. A Chief, belonging to the Crecklndians, is arrived in the Semiramis, for the purpose of laying before the British Government the particlar tlAtils of tie su f • ferings of his nation, in consequence of the recent out ra,ges committed by the American army in West Fl rida. The Chief is Mid to have been employe 1 during the late American war as interpreter to the Indian ariry under the cumnutad of Major Nichols, of the Royal Marines. 11(1
