t;6 FOREIGN I NTE L LIG ENCE. PARIS, AUG. 20.—For SlYne.: time past Govern. ment has been in pos , ....ssion of ::tforinatin that machinations wea, e mployed to induce the troops to revolt. They wise satisq.sl that the gool spirit which animates th,, hlendit soldiers woold batik the projects formed by certain in,m, always ready to saisifice their own honour and the repose of their country to their pride and cupidity. The Govern ment watched all their prceectlim;s. Thes:4 madmen believed that they were stitli:iently r.verfal to overturn the throne, and the protecting iastitutions that France owes to the King. A certain number of officers and non commissioned officers of the corps in garrison at Paris had been seduced. There were some even of the Royal Guard who had suffered themselves to be drawn into the 'dot. Yesterday evening • these officers agreed among themselves to meet ut the barracks, to assemble the soldiers, to march against the palace of our Kings, and to proclaim as sovereign some member of the Buonapartean family ; but many of those whom they had attempted to seduce by their perfideous pro peals, did not hesitate to repair immediately to their chiefs, and discover the plot which was about to explode. Government could delay no longer.— Those who had taken part in this criminal conspiracy were arrested by the gems d'armeric. It appears that oae part of the plan of the conspi rators was to seise on the castle of Vincennes. A Are, that was soon extinguished, broke out at three o'clock in the afternoon. It is reasonable to suppose that this was intended to create disorder, and ilivour an attack. France has a right to expect that such an attempt will be punished in a manner that shall intimidate all those who, forgetting their duty and their oaths, would turn against social order those arms which have been confided to them for its defence. Nothing ought to be neglected that may secure the authors as accomplices of a conspiracy, which, directed against the Throne and the Charter, attacked at the same time every member of the state in his dearest sentiments and best rights. The most elevated tribunal, that which the Char ter with a salutary foresight to repress attempts against the safety of the State, will no doubt be called upon to sit in judgment on the greatest crime that the law can have to punish. Sheltered from all influence, above all sinister suggestions, that august tribunal, bettter than any other, will recognize innocence, and dismiss ill founded suspicions, while it detects the guilty, who ever they may be. The city of Paris enjoys the most perfect tranquil lity. The citizens have learnt, in the same moment the existence of the plot and the arrest of its authors. VIENNA, Auo. 6.—The Court Gazette of to-day *Mains the fidlowing article:—'` We have been requested by the Embassy of his Majesty the King of Great Britain and to the Imperial Court to insert in our paper the following declaration, viz.: that the statements which arc contained in an article dated Vienna, in No. 1 1 5 of the Allgemeine ZeiNng, of August 2, this year, respecting several witnesses on the trial of the Queen of England, in reference to the British Embassy, are mere fictions and lies." HANOVER, Auousr 2.—Several witnesses have passed through this city, who are to give evidence before the House of Lords respecting the conduct of the Queen of England, during her last visit to Ger many. Letters received by the English here from their friends at home, do nut speak with the same confidence as formerly of the peaceable issue of this famous trial. The decision in the Upper House, alley say, does not seem doubtful, but its reception in England, and the execution of any sentence are not so certain ; the prudent and collected conduct of the Queen since her return gains her, they say, im portant suffrages, and the women in particular es pouse her cause. The principal inhabitants are now gone to the watering places, but the labouring classes are employed in the Royal Palaces, us the Duke of Cambridge is expected this summer, and we have not given up the hope of seeing the King. VIENNA, AUGUST 9,-.-There is much talk here of a confidential circular of a powerful Monarch in the North, addressed to alt the Sovereigns who signed the Holy Alliance, to induce them to pre pare their contingents of troops, for the purpose of opposing the revolutionary measures of demagogues ia the South of Europe. AUGUST 12.—Feum one of our correspondents at Leghorn we have received the following particu lan of the dreadful events at Palermo, as related by an eve-witness who left that city on the 19th.— Wh e n this traveller departed, the military, af.cr three days' massacre, had been entirely overpower ed; several hundreds lay dead on the streets, the rest were imprisoned in the dungeon of the garey slaves, before which the sa:.lt: svri:llitls kapt guard who had been conlincd thLre only a few days 1;:t )re. Citation, loaded with gr:lpe shot, are plattted I. !Ora the priyin to tire oil the imprißoned soldiers at TIM NATIONAL REGIS'rEIL the first signal. Three or four thousand inhabitants of Palermo likewise lay dead in the streets. The government, if such it can be callel, was in the hands •of the various iiirectot, of trade, who commanded the armed populace, and formed a kind of iienate, whose. despotic orders were summarily executed by the mob under its influence, The ge neral cry was, " independence, and eternal separa• tion from Naples ! but those woo first set up this cry had alreany disappeared from the stage, or, if any one of them shewcd himself, he was immediately the victim of popular fury. The heads of the Princes Cattolica and Villa Franca (the last Minister during the Sicilian Parliament, and both the most zealous revolutionists in the country) were fixed upon poles in the middle of the city, and their bodi,:s goartered and exposed in four differeut streets. Many other persom, among whom arc mentioned the Commander of the Port, and, us some Miirm, Prince Palermo and Prince Couto have likewise been murdered ; the victims of private revenge are innumerable. For the mere attempt to conceal three or four officers, a man was shot, and his body nailed to the door of his own house. A great many houses were plundered, or the furniture thrown into the street and burnt. To increase these horrors, provisions were becoming scarce, as nothing WdS brought to market in the general confusion, while thousands of armed peasants kept pouring into the city on all sides. It was generally believed, that in case of famine, the soldiers in the prisons would be left to starve. As far as was known, the rest of the island was tranquil, but the wish for independence and separa tion from Naples was general. Niessina alone seemed inclined to adopt the Constitution, if the scat of Go vernment were removed from Palermo to Messina. Accounts from Palermo of the 20th arc more con solatory. The Archbishop proceeded through the street with the Cross, and exhorted the people to humanity and tranquillity. It was hoped that the latter would be gradually restored. MADRID, Au°. 10 —A very interesting discus sion occupied the Cortes during three consecutive sittings. The Marquis de Castellar, Captain of the Guards, had arrested M. Aguilera, an officer of the Guards, who had published a writing against his superior officers, an act which is forbidden by the mi litary ordinances which the Cortes have put in force. M. Aguilera addressed a complaint to the Cortes, and the Committee who were appointed to examine it, proposed that the Marquis de Castellar should be prosecuted before the Tribunals as a violator of the Constitution and of the Liberty of the Press. Upon this question the discussion took place, and it was at length carried in the affirmative, by 104 votes against 47--the Cortes thus declaring that the soldiers might henceforth publish what they pleased respecting their Chiefs.

Letters from Berlin of the 13th inst. state, that the Prussian Guvernment has entered into a contract for a new loan, to the amount of thirty millions of dollars. The contractors are said to be the mercan tile houses of Rothschild, Beneche, and Schickler, who receive, as security, a deposit of treasury note, to the amount of fifty millions of dollars. The plan of this loan is to be the same as that recently concluded at Vienna for the Austrian Government, and will be wholly negotiated on the Continent. In reference to the deposition of Theodore Ma jocci respecting the giuoco, or dance, performed by ~lalwmet in presence of the :Queen, and which was so strongly reprobated by the Attorney-General, we wish to call the attention of the public to the description given of it in many books of Travels, both in British India and in Turkish countries, where it is so familiar as to be always performed ut the marriages and festivals of the Mahomedans, both high an low. In India it is called " Nautch." In Egypt, Savary calls the performance the " Almc." Most of the English ladies as well us gentlemen in :ndia must have seen it, as matter of curiosity. Forbes' Oriental Memoirs, Miss Maria Graham's Work, the Asiatic Researches, and many other books may be referred to, in proof that the usage is com mon in the east; and this explanation to the BritiNh public may render innoxious the severe strictures oa this charge of the Attorney-General. We are greatly deceived it' the discovery of Ma wed having► been a resident in England, and the jolly in which he then spoke of the Queen, be the only unexpected tiict that will soon be established by evidence. We have just learn a most interesting facts respecting the rumours engendered in Milan— that hot-bed of calumny and slander! buring the residence of the Princess of Wales in that neigh bourhood, persons were regularly stationed in the different coffee-houses frequented by English travel lers, for the purpose of inipressing strangers, espe cially thz English, ivith strung ideas of the miscon duct of her Royal Highness. 'the waiter of one particular coffee-house mentioned to a traveller— pointing to two men sitting in the room—that these men were always there, and seemed to have no other business or occupation but to give currency to slanders of the foulest description against the Prin cess of Wales. CASE IN Po:Nr.—An eminent Barrister had some years ago a cute sent to him for an opinion. The case stated was the most prepogeruus and improba ble that ever occurred to the mind of man, and con. eluded by asking, whethe , under such circumstances, an action would lie ? He took hi 3 pen and wrote, " Yes, !Tose WITNESSES mill LIE 100, but not other wise." An article from the Maine, of the 6th August, says—" The reported reconciliation of the Porte with Ali Paella is greatly doubted. The whole report appears to have been circulated by a certain mercantile house.
