oMeript. LONDON, MONDAY, I%!ARCI - I 24. Three o'clock, p.m. The Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday arrived .yesterday. They mention various 'reparations for the invasion of Spain, and the Ultra Journals abound as usual with the most barefaced misrepresentations of the successes and accession in number of the In surgent Corps. It would be a waste of time to bestow any further notice on those fabrications, which are intended to have some influence on those Spaniutds who arc still neuter, and to recruit the rebel ranks to act as Guerrillas, to prevent the French from being annoyed on their Hanks and in their rear during their march to Madrid. The throwing a bridge over the Bidasso4 is to be the Signal fur war and the march of the French army, and a:: the pontoons are in readiness fur that ssiur pose, tl:e commencement of hostilities, it is expected, will not be much longer delayed. There is no ac. count in these Papers of the Duke of Angouleme— we have not heard of him since piously engaged in attending mass at Orleans, nor is there any thing Palk! of the route which he pursued afterwards.— There is evidently some misunderstanding in the French Cabinet—M. tae Villele seems to labour under a political indisposition, and will, in a few days, resign the laborious functions of President of the Council, while M. de Chateaubriand, the great advocate of the .extreme Ultras, will endeavour to strengthen himself in the Ministry. The Duke of Ragusa (Marmont) has not accepted, the offer of Minister of War, on the ground, it is said, that there are " some responsibilities to which it is not agreeable to him to be liable." There are some Generals appointed to the command of the army, .!..t) are little known to the troops,-and by no means distinguished for military talents. This is probably ore of the causes which induces Marmont to decline the responsible situation of War Minister, though it is but a poor compliment to the valour and great military knowledge of the renowned Generalissimo the Duke of Angouleme! It is said that a re ' organization of the National Guard is in contem plation, and it is not intended that the companies *.hail have the choice of their officers. Such an ar- rangement would be unpopular and ill received ; and it is not at all creditable to the Government or t heir measures if the National Guards are distrusted. The French Ministers will soon have much business on their hands—the invasion of Spain, and the in ternal stairs of Frame, will not permit them "to repose on a bed of ruses." The French Five per Cents. are 78f. 35c. Batik Stock, 1,160. On Saturday , at there o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office. The Lad of Liver pool was absent on account of the recent death of his cousin, Colonel Jenkinson. The Lord Chan cellor was also absent, An intelligent naval gentleman, who has been residing some time at Toulouse, recently left that city and travelled the coast road of France to St. Maloes. We are inhumed by him, that about 250 -English are remaining at Toulouse, where the must violent antipathy to the war exists among the civil classes. At Rochefort, there are six sail of the line in condition for sea, but not manned or rigged ; at Brest, there are twenty sail of the line, only one of which is equipping for sea. Brest, anti all the towns, garrisons, and villages, are completely drtiincd of soldiers, as, since the first orders fur oollecticig an army near Bayonne, a second collection has been assembled in the western provinces, with orders to repair to Flanders ; and 8,000 troops lately marched through Rennes, on their way to Valenciennes and Cambray. His Majesty's packet brigs will be commanded by Lieutenants, stationed at Falmouth, as the present Post-office packets are, and be under the superin tendence of Capt. William King, royal navy, who will commission the A.strea to he at Falmouth for that purpose.

Charlotte Rook, he euquited if Mr. Horne or his brother were at home ? she said no—on which he asked permission to write a note, mentioning the name of a gentleman known to Mr. Horne, saying he came on very urgenr bustuess, and when admitted into toe parlour he struck her a violent Uow with a Milan axe, which felled her to the ground ; but Mrs. Bock, however,lleing a strong pow erful woman, had strength to get up again, and caught bold of the villain, who repeated his blows, and inflicted several severe wou ink nn h. r head and hotly, and while struttgling with him he attempted to strangle ht r, and put his hand ill 11r itiocto to reVrllt her screaming, Oil which she bit some of ins fingers, and tore his•face.— rs. Catherine Chili:my, who by chancy called on Mrs. Rook, stated, that she had tot been t here many minutes when there was a knock at the door, white she N•as sitting in the back parlour, and suddenly she heard the cry of " Murder" in the front parlour, and fearful of going there, she ran not at the back door, and getting over some paling, went to the next house and gale the alarm. By this time a iiiimber of pimple had collected in front of the home, Air. Coltman, late night con stable of Poplar, was passing at the time (to a hoot much praise is due for his interference), rushed iota the house, and seeing the prisoner endeavouring In nuke lois escape, he immediately seized him and taitiod hia hands w,th his tie:A:ere:net, and took him to the watch house.

THE WINO v. THE REV. THOMAS ROWLAND. MAIDSTONE, SATURDAY, MARC' 22.—l'itis was an indictment against the defendant, a clergyman of the church of England, fin wilful and corrupt perjury, assigned upon evidence stated to have beets given by him on the trial of a young woman named Mary Drury. at the Quarter Sessions held for the touts and port of New ROMney, whom he had prosecuted to conviction lor sending Min I threatening letter to extort money. The indictment alleged that the delendant.had falsely denied that he had written a certain letter tit Mary Drury, and that he had never met her on a certain liCedSioll men tioned in the indictment. The letter set out in the indietment was in these terms:—" Deat Mary, I scud la you one pound, but I have no more by me to-day, but if you will Come here to me to.morrow night, at seven o'clock, you shall have more. I must see you before you go away" It was imputed to the defendant that he hal been intimate with a young woman named Mary Drury, of humble parentage. She had applied to him for money, which it was said he had refused titer; that she had wrote a letter to him demanding money, and threatening to expose their intimacy, if he did not comply with her request; that for this letter he indicted her its the S s skins Court of New Romney, which is an excliesive having power of life and death, and that upon h - s evidence she was convicted and sentenced to death, the indictment being founded on the Black Act. —She afterwards received the royal pardon. Unfortu nately the pardon was not under the Great Seal, the young woman bei•tg too poor to pay the expense, and it was doubted whethor her evidence was admissible on this trial.

LONDON MARKET& CORN EXCHANGE, MawnAT, - Matter! 24. Our importations during the last week amounted to 8,965 quarters of Wheat, including 3 of Irish, 64'42 qrs. of Bailey, 9,136 quarters of Malt. 18,666 quarters of Oats, including 1.700 of Irish Oats, 1,932 quarters of Beans, 661 quarters of Peas, and 18,292 sacks of Flour. So little has yet been done in any description of grain, that th& price may be nominally quoted the same as on Friday. The samples of good White Vi heat are still offered at 585., and although there are a few samples otfcred at is.. Encl Qs. higher, nothing has been done to warrant our quoting any variation. Barley is at present not much in tie wand, but the nominal price is 58s. Oats are also the same as or. Friday, but the Irish Oats meet with little demand. Bums an.l l'eas are also without alteratmn, but no just criterion can yet be fanned as to whether they will maintain last market price.
