£3l were rep:v.:cute& as, on this happy occasion, wete dictated I 'by tal.mts, diverso indeed, but all animated by the 8/11113 seutintent.—These expressions of the heart were received with an enthusiasm it would be impossible to describe.— The greater part of the pleasant couplets of which they cantis.el ware encored with shouts, and the curtain fell, truil.t repeated cries of Vire le Roi, Vivent Burbtnu! Towards six o'clock an immense crowd flock ed from all pans of the capital to the garden of the Toil and purti ul arl,V under the windows of his Majesty's apartment, where all Paris seemed to have met. Nume rous group:, pre: vied by white thugs, with difficulty made their way through the close ranks of the multitude, who replied to their shouts of Vile le Roi ! His Majesty was plensca to make an naxaimate return t:, this unanimous zeal : he otlen showed himself to the multitude, to whom kris presence is always the mast agreeable reward.—The tnost lively ariumations were raised and repeated even to the extre:niiies of the garden. At eight o'cloek, the musicians, the drums and trum pets of all the legions of National Guards executed succes sively i'arious pieces or ma..ie under the windows of the King. those of Monsieur, mid of the Duchess ngouleme At nine a very tine concert was performed on the terrace of the Palace —A part of the garden was illuminated.— The usual hour of its being shut was thus prolonged amidst the joyons movetnents of an immense population, who at last returned to their respective homes, like a nu merous flintily who separate after having paid to an adored tither the tribute of their love and veneration. Extract of a private letter, dated August '76 :—" The illuminations list evening were very general ; the public buildings were particularly brilliant ; but amongst the pri vate hotels, that of the Prince of Benevento was most conspicuous. The Champ de Mars and Bois du Bon ] igne were crowded all day with the lower orders, as every spreies of public amusement vas given gratis. Madame Blanchard ascended at six o'clock in a balloon, and at nine same very brilliant tire-works were displayed. The streets at night were crowded, and with the excep tion of same insulting observations directed against the English from the military who were parading in parties, I saw no symptoms of disorder, but every expression of attachment to the Bourbons. _ _ "A disgraceful scene occurred, however, at the entrance gate of the Thuilleries. Cards had been issuel by order td . the King to admit a certain number of persons to the lisle-e on Sunday, to see his Majesty and the Royal Fa mily at dinner; and the greater proportion of these tickets had been issued to strangers.—Whether this had incensed the military and the police I know not, but about 200 English, furnished with cards, were kept waiting in the open 'air, opposite the iron gate, from five until seven o'clock, exposed to continual insults from the military, and police ugcnts.—Many ladies had their clothes torn from their backs, and lost their jewels ; several were se riously hurt: at seven the iron gate was opened to admit t!tem all into the lower court, but it was merely to tell them that they were too late, as the King had risen from table, so that they might all return home. I attribute this to a secret agency that appears at work to thwart the gof.xl wishes of the King, and to throw discredit upon whatever he does. Picquet guards were marched through the middle ef a crowd of persons wait ing for admissinn ; and ail the military who had tickets were admitted with their ladies, while other:; who were waiting for the same ob ject remonstrated in vain?" Another letter from Paris, same date, after describing the insults to which our countrymen were exposed on Sunday last, in endeavouring so get access to the Thuil 'aeries, says, that it is the wish of the Royal Family of Fiance, that every attention should be paid to British subjects ; but that there exists a party about the throne hostile to its interests, and extremely active in privately counteracting the wishes and will of the King, and that US long as the Bourbons continue to retain so large a pro portion of the Buonapartean school about them, the diffi ealties with which Louis has to struggle, will necessarily iacrease. PARIS, AUG. .el.—We begin to perceive here all the symptoms which must necessarily accompany the period • of the meeting of the Chambers. It is certain that the Ministry, or a part of it, or at least one individual Minister, is very much afraid of this re-entrance on legislative duties. It is felt that all the Ambassadors of France at foreign Courts—all, with the exception of the Ambasstulor at London, hostile to the majority of the Chamber—must have inspired the different Sovereigns of Europe with great alarm ut it ; which circumstance, during sonic months of diplomatic correspondence, must have been the means of conveying to the King of Entice an opinion which will have weaved unanimous as to the feelings of Europe against that majority. In fine, this party, or this individual of the Ministry above alluded to, t. , :trs nothing so much as the re-as aembling of the Ciitzniber, composed us it now is. The fAllwing is the singular plan which, it would appear, has Leen adopted ; and with regard to which it is aided, that it is only p,:stlioned for a short time, that the fae of he King may not be distnrbed by its Ftblication. A rr: - 1 Ordinance will. appear, importing— o'llat the tiling feels daily more mid more convineed of the neces,:ty of in no respect depart niz from' the Comitittition. 71::It the exi , itingc Chivniier of Depotio i> composed in s Mama paciacly anal late. contrary w that Constitution, THE NATIONAL REGISTER.

It is calculated that more than 3000 F,nglish visited Versailles yesterday to see the grand water-works of the Garden. They will play again on the Ist of September, in celebration of the King's birth-day. It now appears quite certain that the expected inter view between the Emperor of Austria and the King of Prussia in a German village will not take place. Auti. I..—A Report has been made to the King on the disturbances which lately occurred at Strasburgh.— The number of men who fell in the general affray is therein rated at 200. The cause of the tumults is re ferred to the offensive tone anti language assumed by the officers of the Departmental Guard towards those of the Natienal Guard of the city ; tliey were at length appeased by the mediation of the authorities, and more than all, by the dread of the interference of the armed tinvigners. The spirit of disaffivtion has always been singularly ma nifested throughout Alsace. It is said by sonic, to be fo mented by the Austrian General commanding there, the Court of Vienna being supposed to entertain designs upon that province. According to others, it is kept up materially by the intolerant system pursued towards the Protestants, who are very numerous in that country.— Strong symptoms of commotion appeared at the same time at the towns of Hagueuau and Saverne, and a ge neral rising was apprehended throughout the province.— The Count d'Artois will shortly visit this and the other eastern province!:, as the Duke d'Angouleme lately visited those of the youth, in order to try the effect of his pre sence, towards composing and reconciling the minds of the inhabitants. The late Proclamation of the Prefect of the city of Strashurgh alludes to the difficulty of raising men for the Royal service. This difficulty is gener.dly Mt. --.11a..-- SPAIN. Letters from Spain, received by the Mail of Wednes day, give the most melancholy picture of the country that can be imagined. A sullen gloom overhangs all public and private business, accomyanied by distrust, which renders society impossible. So great is the want of confidence, and the dread of arbitrary contributions and seizures, that every one possessed of specie has bu ried it, so that not a dollar is to be seen in circulation, unless in the hands of Monks and Friars. A merchant is afraid of his clerk knowing that he has even the most trifling sum in his strong chest. The whole conversation in Madrid is absorbed by the late dOwnfall of two 17f King Ferdinand's quondam Coun cillors and advisers. The Correspondence of Lurdizabal to his friend Abadia in Cadiz, and that of the latter to his brother in Lima were captured in the ship Neptune on her way to Port Bello, and carried into Carthagena, little before that place was captured by Nlorillo. In this correspondence a disclosure of state secrets took place re specting the marriage of the King and Brother with the Portuguese Princesses, the degraded state of the Madrid Cabinet, and the manner in which the operations of Go vernment might be turn..ll to commercial purposes, which has greatly piqued Minister Cevallos and his Master, and both Lurdizalial anl Abadia have been arrested. The latter, win) acted as Commissioner in Cadiz flr the South American e:.peditions, was seized in the night in his Led, and carried away, without even his frieuLL knowing where. Recent al.ices from Iton la, in Spain, state, that the troops in glrrison at Malaga, lately broke out into mutiny, and attacked the Bishop's palace, throwing stones at it, and breaking the wimlows, &e. Against the Bishop (FathA. Cancdo, a famous nnrade of Onto i.tza, in the Cortes , they uttered dreadful threats ; and the aflitir woul - 1 have had serilus consequences, had nn; some persons int-aposed, and the Willa t.

Marmars arc every where heard that the King thins of nothing but fattening the Monks and Canons like hogs, while the defenders of the country.. are sufli..rtsil to perish. A private letter from Cadiz states, that when Morrillo's expedition was fitting out there, X) great was the want of money, that the Government was obliged to effect a loan of about one million and a half of.dullais frunt,the inerAants of the above place ; bonds fbr payment at stated periods were given, which arc now expired but thu lenders cannot obtain either principal or interest, Most foul surmises are circulated in Spain, respecting the murder of Mr. Lycll, the late Messenger, which it becomes the duty of Government to unravel. That he was killed by no common ruffian fin. the purpose of plun der, is evident from his papers and letters which he had about him being all that was stolen. Rumour concludes that his death was connected with political purposes ; and that inunediately after, the order to convey the Spanish Liberates from Ceuta was given. `Whether he had been the bearer of those remonstntnces so long pro mised, or conveyed letters of condolence from their friends here or in France, is not known ; bat it is gene rally believed that his papers were all his assassins aimed ut. SPANISH AMERICA. It would seem as if the extinction of Black Slavery, in a large and interesting portion of the globe, was reserved for the Spanish Americans, who feel anxious to commu nicate to that portion of their fellow citizens, u partici pation in the stone freedom for which they are contend ing. Long ago, Buenos Ayres, which section possesses but few Negroes. decreed that the Slave Trade should be there at an end, and the future offspring of slaves free. A certain number were also emancipated annua* Gen. Bolivar, previous to his setting out to liberate Caraccas front its oppressors, issued a decree, of which the follow ing is a translattion. Venezuela, from its contiguity to the West Indies, contained a large portion of Slaves, scarcely any of whom were owned by Spaniards ; their native masters have therefore the merit of freeing their own property, in favour of the rights for which they have so long bled, and in support of that independence they are resolved to attain. This measure of itself furnishes a patriot army that may now bid defiance to all the threats and exertions of Spain ; and in honour of the man who has thus carried it into effect, it ought to be added, that he was one of the largest estate-holders in in that quarter. This decree has given liberty. to 70,000 slaves. REPUBLIC OF VEN:EZUF.LA. SIMON BOLIVAR, etyma:my: CIIIEP AND CAPTAIN-GENERAL ♦LL THE ARMIES OE VENEZUELA, NEW GRANADA, &C.

There is a report that the Emperor of Austria is about to enter into another matrimonial alliance, avid that his choke has tlallen on a daughter of the King of Saxony. One of the German papers give the following anecdote relative to young Bonaparte, under the date of Vienna, August '0 A short time since the Emperor went to Schienbruna with his two daughters, and the little King of Rome, to see the young lion which the Princess of Wales has lately.presented to his Majesty ; the lion, be ing very young, is nursed by two goats ; on the approach of the Ar lalochesscs, one of the goats came forward me ;toeing with her horns, seeing which, little Bony ran to the goat, took hold of her horns, and said very quietly to his aunt—' forts ponurz paver mainte»adt, vta tante, n'tlez pas pear, je In ret irnA.
