A conspiracy to nssassinatc Louis Phillip/ic had been
discovered and prevented. All that had transpired con
cerning it, will he found in the letter of the -com-spond
ent of the Times.
The Court of i’cers have sentenced lien or oh on, one hf
the Lyone.sc insurgents, to five years’ in^iiisonnnmt
and a fine of 5000 francs, for violent and m^ukisg lan
guage towards the Court. Tho prisoner described him
self as a Republican soldier, and rated his judges in good
round terms.
The affairs of Spain seems adverse to the Carlist cause.
The death of Xumalacarrtsfuy is probably an irreparable
blow to them. Tho seige of Ailboa had been raised, and
the besieging force had retreated in great confusion
to the mountain fastnesses, where Don Carlos bird bin
head quarters. To n handful of iirilish aux-idioTR^. who
were present ami aiding in the dclence of the t.nvn, is
ascribed, with the usual boastfulness of the English prints
about British prowess, &c., the success of the defence.
The Queen of Spain is about receiving efficient aid
from France. The AJonUrur announces, that by virtue
of a convention signed between the Duke de llroglie
und Frias, on the y-'th ult., the foreign legion is trans
ferred to the service of the Queen of Spain. No stipu
lation lias been made about strengthening the foreign
legion by uny French recruits. Volunteers, however,
would be received, and the Prefect of the Seme adver
tises for recruits; and announces that the public office
of the Military Intendanthas been opened for the pur
pose of receiving nil who offer themselves, without the
necessity of applying elsewhere for leave. There are
still some difficulties, however, of a pecuniary nature,
which piobably will not he surmounted until the arrival
of M. Mendizabcl, who had, however, intimated to his
Ambassador that lie could not reach Paris, consistently
with his other engagements, for eight days to come.
Two steuinboals, with detachments amounting to POO
men, had sailed from England—to form part of Colonel,
now General, Evans’ command.
A conspiracy to overturn the throne of the Emperor
Nicholas was discovered in St. Petersburg in'the course
of the month of May ; and more than sixtv persons
have been arrested on a charge of being engaged m it.
Such is the secrcsy with which the proceedings of the
Russian Government are conducted, that the news of
this affair only reached Paris recently.
For some time past, the attention of the- Parisian pub
lic has been occupied with the details of a criminal trial
going on at the Palais do Justice.—-'I he principal party j
accused is u AI. do la Roncicre, the son of a General
Officer of that name, who is charged with having btolten
into the house of General de Morell,the Governor of the
Military School at Sanuiur—to have entered the bed
room of Mademoiselle dc Morrll, the General's daugh
ter, a young lady of seventeen years of uge—and to have !
committed the most atrocious violence on her person, for
the purpose, it is said, of revenging himself on her fa
ther for having turned him out of the house. The prin
cipal witness lias been subject to a sort of catalepsy,
which leaves her only at«Uerval> in a state when it is
possible to obtain her testimony, it was, in Consequence,
after twelve o'clock Inst night that she was brought
into Court, and deposed to the farts with which M. de la
Ronciere stands charged. After a long trial, the
matter was committed to the jury, who retired into their
room at a quarter to live o’clock, and remained in deli
beration until eleven o'clock at night, at which hour
they returned into court, which was crowded a* fully as
in the morning, and gave in their verdict, finding La
ltoncierc guilty of an attempt at violation of the person
of Marie Morel!, and of having inflicted certain cuts
and wounds upon the s.-<id Marie Alorell. At the sumo
time the jury declared, by tlie same majority of more
than seven voices, that the commission of these crimes
was accompanied by alleviating circumstances in tiivor
of the prisoner. (Murmurs amongst the audience.)
The other prisoners, Samuel Giileron and Julio Gi
rder, were acquitted.
The judges, ufier retiring for a quarter of an hour to '
the Council Chamber, returned into court, and pronounc- '
ed the following *( nienec:—’‘Emilios Clement de la
Ronciere, having been found guilty fey the jury of the
crimes designated by the articles 2, R32, 21, and 23, of
the penal code, but, according to the declaration of the
jury, with alleviating circumstances, is condemned to
ten years' Confinement (but without previous exposure
n the pillory,) and to all the costs of the proceedings.”
The following is a report of Mademoiselle Mo/cJJV
The President rose and said—Mademoiselle de Morell
is about to enter the court, nnd we request that all present
will preserve the mont perfect silence when nlie appears.
We trust that curiosity in this instance will yield to the
respect which her painful situation ought to inspire._
(Cheers, succeeded hy the most profound silence.)
Mademoiselle de Morell then entered the court, sup
fiorted hy an elderly lady, and followed by two of her re
ntives. Her step, (hough slow, was firm, and she took
her seat in an arm chair which had been provided for her,
and turned towards the jury. Her voice, though weak,
was not tremulous; and,from the manner in which she
spoke, she did not appear at all einbartassed. In spite of
the immense crowd in court, the most profound sib-nee
reigned throughout, and every word she uttered was
listened to with the most eager attention. Alter having
entered into some details of facts which occurred preen
orisly to the i£4lh of Hc-pt., she came to the nocturnal visit
and attack of the prisoner, at which period her emotion
very sensibly increased. Hhe proceeded—“On the night
in question I was in bed am! asleep, w hen suddenly I
was awakened hy anoise in the bed-room I knew not
at first what it was, hut soon discovered that it proceeded
from the breaking of a square of glass in my chamber
window.
As soon ns 1 had some what recovered from my sur
prise, I heard a man leap into the room. He had on liis
nead a police cap. I immediately on looking at him dis
covered that it was M. de In Koaciere. He approached
me and deprived me of my night dress, and then lied a
handkerchief round my neck and a rope round my waist.
He said ho had come to be revenged. He struck me se
veral times on the arcus ami on Inc legs, He then began
to bit© my hand and trample on my body, lie also
struck a Violent blow on the mouth, and during the
time that he was thus assaulting me, he said from time
to time that he wished to he revenged. My stalled cries
and groans were at length heard. Miss Allen mine
and knocked at the door and attempted to form it open.
M. de la Konciere at this moment escaped h^ the win
dow at which he had entered, and as lie was getting out
I heard him say, 'I think I have done for her.' j then
opened ray eyes, which 1 had for some seconds kept
shut, and saw that ho was gone, hut i heard him say to
somebody, 'Be firm ’ ” i’i,o witness rsised her voice
towards the end of her deposition, and dwelt with ninch
emphasis on the last two words.
President.—How was it that you did not eall aloud for
•Mistane* >— It is probable that I wished to do so, but fear
prevented me YuU a»;d he hid ou a police Cup W'lnt
wu the color of that cap’—1 have alitady stab d that i |
believed it was red, although I could imt invar that it |
was. Was he quite dressed ?—Yea. Had he hi* pants- .
loon* on ?—1 eaniiot say; he had a long coat on, nud as I
that opened I saw something white, but J cannot tell
whether it was his pantaloons or not that I saw. Did
he take oft".your night dress’—Entirely. Was it but- !
t»ucd?—N*>, it was tied with sitings round the waist.
Did the prisoner begin by striking you?—Yes. Ou !
what part of the body ?—On the arms. Did he attempt
to put you on the God ?—He did not. Ilnd he a knife
in hi - hand —I do not know When did he inflict the
wounds with the sharp and blunt instillment?—At the
end of the struggle. What think yon induced him to fly;
do you think that he heard .Miss Allen moving ?—Yea.
She tried tor a minute 1 r two to open the di>or. Hud
you not already sq> >Uen to Miss Allen of I.a Koncierc ?
i es. And to Julie Ctenier:—No, never. Had you rc
eeived a great number of anonymous letters ?— Yes. a
great many. These letters were not of a very ugieeuble
nature ?—-No. \\ lien lie left the chamber, did yon hear
him say, “ Hold lust ?"— Yes, and I thought it was to
the servant, Samuel. On your return to Put is, did you
imt receive on the Quni tl Orsav a blow on the arm ?—
Yes, a blow which seemed to be struck with a cudgel,
but it did not leave any bruise. You received several
bruises on the night of Sept. $4 ?—Yea, on the arm, neck,
and breast. Nevertheless you danced on the iicth r—
Yes; I wan ill at tire time, but not so much as to prevent
my attend 110 the re union. Did you keep your room
alter the tilih'— No. Are you, Maileiu -iselle, quite cer
tain that tlie individual who entered your chandler on
the night of the Vi4tli, was M. de la Itociere?—I am quite
sure that it w ns he. The President continued—I need
not remind you how great a responsibility your declara
tion renders him liable to; you are. doubtless, fully aware
of the serious nature of the deposition you are now mak
ing; and you are quite contiilciit as to his identity?—1 ,1111
fully aware, and run sure it was lie. You have spoken
of the color of the cup he wore; was the light of the
moon sufficient to enable you to distinguish colors?—It
was. You have on two occasions shown something like
a want of confidence in your mother—first, in not let
ting her be called immediately on the night of the 5?4th;
and. secondly, in concealing the wounds which you had
received. Were they in t inflicted in the most secret
par is-• They were. When did you first sjxT.k of them
to Madame de Morell?—A Her 1 hud recovered.
I he President here desired Da Itonciere to stand up,
and then told the witness to look at him, ami say if she
recogniicd him. She turned round and looked him full
in the face, and, without the slightest hesitation, declar
ed that she was fully persuaded ■>! his identity with the
individual who entered her chamber.
President.-—V on recognize both the person and voice
of the prisoner?—Yes.
President.—Prisoner, what have you to say to the
charge?
De la Ronciere.—1 protest against the deposition of
Mademoiselle de Morell; and Indore Ciud and man declare
it to be false. (Murmurs of disapprobation.)
M Lafos.se.— Have you no explanation to add?
I risonor.— H hat i have said comprehends every
thing.
President.—And to what motive can you attribute the
declaration of Mademoiselle de Morell? 1 know not. I
cannot tell what should induce her to accuse me of a
crime which 1 never committed.
Do you suppose that there exists in her family any
feeling of hatred towards your—1 have never done any
thing to the Morell family which could give me reason
for supposing that they would wish to injure me.
The President then requested the young lady to re
lied. and ogain say whether she was quite sure that La
llonck-rc was the man who entered her chamber, She
made the same declarations as before, with the same
firmness of conviction.
President.—When you went to the ball, were the
bruises still on your arms?— I put on long gloves, which
concealed them.
Mademoiselle de Morell was then told she might re
tire; and her departure excited as much interest us had
I her entrance.

to assassinate Louis Phillippe.
Pakis, Monday, 4 P. M.— (Private Correspondence.)
A number of peers and public functionaries have been
to Nruilly this morning to congratulate the Kino on tlie
discovery of a conspiracy which was supposed to hive
been directed against Uis Majesty's person. When I
lirst heard r>t it. 1 was not disposed to give it much at
tention. supposing it to have originated with parties
whose interest it is to detect such conspiracies, and some
times to crcnte them, so as to muke detection more easy
On this (.cession, however, the backwardness of the po
lice in giving publicity to the plot, suggested the likeli
hood of its reality, and on further inquiry I have seen
reason to attach some credit to the facts which were
brought under my notice, which were, that five persona
had been arrested last night, and two more this morning,
charged with the design of waylaying the King on his re
turn to the Tuileries from Neuilly, while passing along
the quay which separates the royal gardens from' the ri
ver, and extends from the Pont Louis XVI . in front of the
Chamber of Deputies, to the Pont Royal, which connects
the Place du Carrousel with the Faubourg St. Oennuin.
The place would doubtless be well chosen lor the com
mission of such n crime if the assassins had no idea of
providing for their own safety, there being nothing along
the whole interval between the bridges but the rTver on
the one side and a dead wall on the other, Lul as there
is a strong military post ut either end, it is evident that
escape would be next to impossible. The turn which
ihe trial of the April insurgents has taken at the Luxem
burg would not be unlikely,// priori, t« provoke some
desperate characters to make the attempt; but then, from
the disclosures on the trial, it d..es not appear that there
would be many who would be ready to engage on such a
forlorn hope as th.s, in which the sacrifice of their own
lives would be required, without uuy temptation or pre
tence for personal vengeance to secure the application of
on abstract principle of government.
The accounts from the North of .Spain describe the
Csrliet army in its retreat from before Jlilbon to the
Pretender’s head quarters at Onate, as in a slate of com
plete disoigiuiizalKKi, the whole fence* having broken up,
ns if by enchantment, and the* officer* having taken tin*
iead in deserting their standards. When some allow
ance is mad** lor party coloring, this state of things may
rhaps fairly be considered us a necessary condition of
llilit sort ol warfare in which the /bisques are now en
gaged. Discouraged at ow*t. by the loss of their Chief,
hy the consequent failure of the attempt on Bilboo, and
by the threatened approach of hostile legions from
France and England. it would have been inconsistent
with all their past history had they remained in the
open country under arms, to make head against the
storm. They will doubtless retire, as heretofore, into
their mountain fastnesses, arid such of them us have
harvest on the ground, now ieady for the sickle, may
probably be found laying down the bayonet for a season
to take In the reaping hook. It is not unreasonable to
ascribe a large share ot this result to the gallantry of that
handful of Englishmen trim contributed so essentially
at Oil boa In inspire the one party with courage and the
other with apprehension. ” yJm

HOUSE OP COMMONS—Tomimv, 7th July.
On the re-ossembli««r of the House at 5 o'clock, m/vr
r il jiclitions were presented, after which Lord Morpeth
brought in the Irish Church Bill, which was read a first
time, and ordered to be read a second time on Monday.
Sir It I’eel took this opportunity of stating what course
he intended to pursue with reference to the measure.
I he hill, said the Light Jinn. Baronet, ** compre*
hends some enactments in the general policy of which I
concur; it comprehends others to which I feei the most
derided objection in point of principle. I concur hi the
p hey of malting some new arrangement with respect to
the collection oft tin sin Ireland: I concur in the p. .
I licy of substituting for the payment of the lithe in
, kind, and also for the composition for tithe, n rent*
charge, »» provided in one part of the noble ixnd »
hill, i disagree as to the making the rent-charge per
i pelual; i di*igric as to the omission or conversion
! and redemption of the rent-charge, end iis conversion
into land, tint nt the same time, in the present state o
Ireland,«u<l with my string feeling of the policy ot
making some immediate arrangement ift respect to the
collection of tithes I have, notwithstanding the decided
| objection Which 1 fee I toother parts ofihe hill, a difRcul
; ty in giving « vole <m the second reading, llie effect of
which, if successful would probably be In preclude lhat
arrangement w ith Mfspcct to the substitution of a rent
charge in lieu of tithe, in the general policy of which I
concur, But J have ho hesitation in saying, that my
objections to other parts of the bill, pariLularly the ap
propriation of ecclesiastical property to oilier than ecclesi
astical purposes immediately in connexion with the
interests of the established church, and my ob
jections to the wholesale suppression of the cure
of souls in so many parishes in Ireland, arc so strong,
that I cannot consent to purchase the benefit of
a substitution for tithes on those conditions which
have been nfliwd to it by tho noble i<ord—The
course, therefore, which I mean to pursue will lx*,
on the motion for the speaker, leaving the chair, in or
der that the bill may go info committee, to move an in
i struction totl»e committee to divide it into two bill*. I
do thtt for the express purposeof enabling one, with the
views i entertain, to concur in that part of tho bill to
I which I am ready to give my consent I do Jt also with
ti*e express oud avowed purpose of enabling me, if I can. |
to reject altogether those portion* of it from which i en
tirely ilitM'iit. By l iking that oouiae 1 tree myself from ■
the difficulties wl»i"h by icjecliug this bill, or appearing
to reject it altogether on the sicoud reading, would
arise in contemplating the present condition of the Irish |
c', r){>t from the uianifeststion ot any constructive in- ;
disposition to consider favorably some arrangement that
might alfur-J them some share of that relief to which j
they arc fairly and justly entitled. If 1 should sue- j
ceed in my motion—if the instruction to tin* cumin tree 1
to (livid- the bill should be carried, 1 shall then have the j
opportunity of giving my consent, with any modification .
which may be proposed, to that pert of the hill which 1
am piepart-d to support, and ul the same time of manifest- |
ing my decided objections t-> those two enactments to j
which 1 have referred—utimely, another appropriation ;
of the ecclesiastical re venues, and the suppression of the |
cure of souls in ctiO parishes hi Ireland."
Lord J. Russell expressed his intention of opposing ]
this course, and of insisting that tlu> clauses relative to j
appropriation should accompany those relative to tithes.
In answer to a «piestiou from Sir R. Reel, Lord J. Rus
sell staled, that us soon as the Municipal Corporations
Rill should have been read a third time, Lord .Morpeth
would move that the Irish Church Rill be committed.

ON PLUS will make* his l»rs»L season in America
at iny “True-Blue Plantation” in St. Matthew s
Parish, 30 utiles below Columbia, in the Slate ol' South
Carolina.
This stallion was imported by myself, last Pali; and
for his pedigree, and performance whilst on the English
turf, see the sixth number, vol. Oth, of Skinner's Ameri
can Turf Register, for February, le'3o. Nonplus was
bred by Mr. Burton, gotten by Cattan, (a favorite son
of Golumpus, by f Johanna.) and was foaled in the Spring
of 1*21. It will bo seen by reference to his pedigree
and the Racing Calendar, that he is nearly ullied with
the best blood of England, and while on the course, beat
many of the finest horses of his day; among others,
Lord Filzwilliams’ Mulatto, (half brother to "Nonplus,
and for whom four thousand guineas were offered, and
refused;) the celebrated horses Granby and Mcdora;
Lord Kilhurne’s Purity and Acteon; Vanish, Camellia,
and Tarrare; and Laurel and Popsy, (celebrated sons of
lllucklock.) Nonplus probably sold lor more money in
England, than any horse ever imported into America—
having been purchased when three years old, by the
Duke of Cleveland, at three thousand guineas. His
colour is a rich hay, witli hluek legs, inane, and tail, and
no white, except his two hind heels, lie w f, bet 1 1-2
inches high, with great muscular power and compact
ness; clean limbs, and fine aelion. He in remarkably
docile, and finely tempered, though a cry animated. He
deservedly ranks amongst the stallions of the highest
character, and is n*nv in fine health ami condition. For
I the estimation in which he is held by the subscriber, he
will only remark, tiiat lie has put to him this season all
his finest mares. In consequence of the great number
of fine imported horses recently brought into the coun
try. the terms of the present season will be very low—
$30 only, payable when the season expires, and $1 to
the groom.
