From the Boston Commercial Gazette, Sept. 13 IMPORTANT FROM ENGLAND. The ship Amethyst. Capt. Nve, has brought London papers to the 6th August and Liver pool to the 7th. The only news of import unce which they contain nre give below: The Chambers of Peers and Deputies had been opened at Paris, and the papers contain the speech of the Lieutenant General on the opening of the same. The King bar abdica ted, and in the act of abdication, IIis Royal Highness Louis Autoiue tie France, also re □ounces hi* rights. These acts had been laid before the Cham bars by the Lieutenant General. The King was at Rnmbouiilel, with 1500 troops, and General Pajol, with a force of 20,000 men, and several pieces of cannon, had marched from P .ns for itambouillet. It appears that the King's last hope was in rxrittng * oivit war in favor ot me young Duke of Bordeaux; in consequence of which, ■the Parisians ivere more than ever exaspera ted against the Bourbons and the whole popu lation of Paris were again in arms. PARIS, August 3. Opening of the Chambers—Speech of the Lieut. General cf the Kingdom Peers and Deputies—Paris, troubled in its repose by a deplorable violation ot the Char ter and of the laws, defended them with hero ic courage! In the midst of this sanguinary struggle, all the guarentces of social order no longer subsisted Persons, property, rights, every thing that is most valuable and dear to men and to citizens, was exposed to the mas; serious dangers. In this absence of all public power, the wishes of my fellow citizens have turned to wards me; they have judged me worthy to concur with them in the salvation of the coun try, they have invited me to exercise the functions of Lieutenant General of the King dom This course appeared fo me to be just, the dangers immense, the necessity imperitive, mv duty sacred. I hastened to the midst of this valiant people, followed by my family, and wearing those colors which, for the second time, have marked among us the triumph ol Liberty. 1 have come firmly resolved to devote mv aelf to all that circumstances should require of tne, in the situation in which they have placed me, to re-establish the empire ot the laws, to save liberty which was threatened, and rend er impossible the return of such great evils, Iiy securing forever the power of that charter, whose name invoked during the combat, was also appealed to after the victory. (Applaus es.) In the accomplishment of this noble task, it is for the chambers to guide me. All rights must be solemnly guarantied, all the institu tions necessary to their full and free exercise must receive the developements of which they have need. Attached by inclination an<! conviction to the principles of a free govern ment, I accept beforehand all the consequen ces of it. I think it my duty immediately t« d’all your attention to the organization of th< National Guards, to the application of thejurv to the crimes of the press, the formation <>i the Departmental and Municipal Admimstra tions, and, above all, to that 14th article of thi Charter which has been so hatefully interpre ted. (fresh applause ) It is with these senti moots, gentlemen, that I come to open f his ses sion. The past is painful to me. I deplore mis fortunes which I could have wished to prevent; hut in the midst of this magnanimous Iran* port of the capitol, and of all the other French ciiies, at the sight of order reviving with marvellous promptness, after a resistance free from all excesses, a just national pride move;* tny heart, and I look forward with confidence to the future destiny of the country. Y ’s, gentlemen, France, which is so dear to its, will he iiappv and free; it will show to England, that solely engaged with its interna prosperity, it loves peace as well as liberty, ?tnd d sires only the happiness and the repose ©f its neighbors. Respect for all rights—care for all interest- —good faith in the Government, are the best means to disarm parlies; and to bring back to people’s minds that confidence—to the coosti- tuuon that stability, which are the only certain pledges of the people, and of the strength of states. P»ers nnd Deputies—as soon as the Cham ber shall be constituted. I shall have laid be fore you the acts of abdication by his majesty Charles the X By the same act Louis Antoi ne de France also renounces bis rights. This act was placed in my hands yesterday, the 2d of August, at 11 o’clock at nigt. I hare this morning ordered it to be deposited in the arebieves of the Chamber of Peers: and I cause it to be inserted in the official part of the Moniteur. The cries of “Vive d’Orleans!” “Vive la lib- erte! were again heard louder than before.— The Prince appeared to be deeply affected: he saluted the assembly several times, and with drew with his son, attended by the great depu tation. which conducted him hack to the door Mr. Lafilte advanced the centre of the as sembly, and said, “1 think, gentlemen, that we ought to separate to-day, to meet again to morrow at noon. ’ Numerous voices, “Yes, to-morrow at noon —ic-naorrow! to-morrow! * Other voices,—“to-dayl to-day!” “The Bu reaux might be formed.” M. Sal vertex 1 'Where is our president by seniority!” t M Dupin the elder— 1 “M Chillaud de la Kigaudie is apt here; but we have M« Labby de Poujpiere Several voices.—“till to-morrow for the Bu reaux, till to-tBorroplf' ft e assembly broke up and left the hall— The immense crowd wbich surrounded the pallace filled the air with the loudest acclama tions. The National Guards, in their best uni forms, alone lined the way, but it seemed to have come to take part in a fete, than to main tain order, for no body seemed to think of dis turbirg it At the slightest injunction of acilizen soldier the groups dispersed as if by inebant- ment to make room for the Deputies. From the Messager des Chambres. Aug- 3. Paris, Aug. 2.—“Charles X. and his fami ly, with the exception of the Dauphiness, who has remained at Fontainbleau, have been* since the day before yesterday, at RambouiNet, accompanied by 2000 men ot all arms and a great number of general and superior officers, without troops. The division ot Bordesoulle, and all the rest of the Guards, have not left Versailles. The General is at Rambouillet, and the regiments have refused to follow him The new authorities and the tri-colored flag have been established at Versellies. “The patriotic movements had spread from Paris with so much rapidity and enthusiasm, to Orleans, Chartres. Blois, Tours, and the whole country on the Loire, that the retreat of CharlesX tola Vendte became impossible.— Events partly resembling those at Paris have occurred al Nantes. The Victory remained with the citizens, and National Volunteers were immediately pot in motion. In these circumstances Charles X. has been oblig' d to ask a sate conduci ot the Frovlsiouai Cluveiu ment. This safe conduct has been granted him, and the National Commissioners have, it is said, already set out to accompany the Ex King to Cherbourg, where he will embark It had been thought that he would ask to proceed to. the frontier of Switzerland, in or- d» r to go to Rome; but apparently it would have been too painful for him in his niislor- ' unes to inhabit a city in which many mem bers of the Ex Imperial family reside, and he has wished to spare himself the pain ol such a situation. *• We learn that Charles X., abandoned by all and retired to Rambouillet, has sent to ask a safe conduct to the first sea port, offer ing to abdicate in favor of the Duke ol Or* lcan9^ Messrs. Odillon, Barrot, De Schonen, Jaqueminot. the Duke de Trevise, are gone to carry him his safe conduct, and to regulate the conditions of it. "The Dutches of Orleans ha9 just been to visit the wounded- in the hospitals. “It seems certain that tho Ambassadors of Foreign Powers now at Paris have already given to the Duke of Orleans, in the name of their respective Sovereigns, the assurance of the most friendly disposition. “Mr. Edward Ternaux. who has arrived in 28 hours from Clermont, at Paris, saw every where on the road the National Guards or ganized, and the tri-colored flag flying. The troops no where show any hostility against the people. At Lyons, the post are divided Iwv tween the troops ofthe line and the N itionai Guard. ' News has been received of the death of the Kirig of Naples ‘ A plan of a complete counter revolution has been found among the papers ofthe Duch ess d»*’Angouleme It will soon he published “The last Ordinance which Charles X. signed at St Cloud, was for the abolition ot of th Pnlvteehnick Schools.” The Messager states that on the arrival at Rambouillet of the Commissioners appointed ogive him a safe conduct, the Ex King relum ’d to adhere to the proposals that he had him -“|fmade. “The news of bis bad faith ini lediatelv excited the indignation o‘ the Par isians Six thousand National Volunteers as -enabled in the Champs Elysees, to march to Rambouillet. All the hackney-carriages of Paris and all those that ply in the environs ‘nve been put into requisition at the expense »f the city, to convey them to Versailles. AT the armed population will join them on the road, as well as 8000 Normans, likewise well armed who have just arrived within two leagues of Paris Ir is now for the pretended rights of the young Duke of Bordeaux, that Charles X. retains the last hope of causing a civil war to break out. He is deceived by those who surround him and by his own pre judices to the veiv last moment. He does not comprehend, and he cannot comprehend that this 19 not a civil war hut a deliverance —a national movement against a perjured and despised Government, which would have cov ered France with executioners, if the citi zens could have been conquered. However, Gen. Gerard has set out for Rambouillet with 20 000 men. and several pieces of cannon — We cannot hear of him again till to-morrow The population of Paris is again in arms, and the exasperation against the Bourbons i9 ex treme ” Paris, August 3—The Duke d’Angouleme read at Maintenon in presence of th troop- who accompanied him, a Proclamation, an nonneiog to the army that it was disbanded.— ‘The commanders of corps in all parts of th- country are preparing to make their submis sion to the Prince Lieutenant General. It is said that a telegraphic despatch an nounces that Marseilles and Toulon have hoisted the national flag, and the public will soon learn that the army in Africa wears our glorious colors. M. de B-.irmont had landed at Toulon, but he re.embarked it is thought, for Naples. M. de Montbel and M Chappelle are the only Ministers who remain with the Royal family, and it is not yet known what has be come of Messrs, de Polignac, Guernon de Ranville, d’Haussez and Chantelause. Most ofthe Theatres were re-opened yes terday evening, with a representation for the benefit of the family's of the victims to the patriotic cause. M. Norrit was at one of them, in the uniform ofthe National Guard, and he song the cantate of M Casitmr D«*la- vigne, which excited great sensation. At the Theatre Des Nouveautes, Marseilloise hymn, and Villeneuve, were received with much enthusiasm. NATIONAL GUARDS OF PARIS. Orders of the Day. August 2.—At the glorious crisis when Pa risian energy has re-conquered our rights, ev ery thing is still temporary. Nothing is defini rive. hut the sover igntv of those National Rights, and the eternal recollection of the arVof tlie people. Butin the midst oft my encamped at Coigmers wanted to set out uowees invented by the necessity of this morning at three o’clock to go to Ram ihP re-oriranrzation ofthe Na- bouillet, and even farther, and it was with great wor various gre»t.aiffic 0 U„b..Ge« P.j«V-».ble.opr.. vent their march, wbich was now become use less- Bot the result of this movement has been immense; the flight of the King, his definitive abdication, the taking of all the diamonds of the Crown, the capitulation ofthe whole Royal Guard. Such are the fruits of this day, which closes the glorious revolution tflat a great na tion has just effected. After the praises me rited by the brave National Guard, which yes terday behaved in a manner worthy of itself, both by its enthusiasm and its discipline, we must do justice to tbe talent of General Pajoi, and to the zeal and presence of mind of Col. Jacqueminot and M. George Lafayette. Such troops a worthy of such chiefs. At six o’ clock these brave officers entered Paris with the Crown diamonds, amidst cries of “Charter forever! the brave National Guardforever!” (From the Messager of Thursday 6th of Aitg ) Saint Acbcul is destroyed, The people pro ceeded to that establishment, which they de molished and burnt. A letter accompanying the express says— “As soon as the charter is constituted, a pro posal will be made to offer the Crowu to the Duke ot Orleans Every thing is prepar ed for this. It is probable that the Peerage and the Magistracy will be remodelled. It is affirmed that Geuer?l Clausel is appointed commander in chief ofthe army in Africa. From the Moniteur of August 4.

My Cousin—I am too profoundly grieved by tbe evils which afflict or might threaten my people, not to have sought a means of prevent ing them I have therefore taken the resolu tion to abdicate the crown in favor of my grandson the Duke De Bordeaux.

You will take besides ail measures which concern you to regulate the forms of the go vernment during the minority of l he new King Here I confine myself to making known these dispositions; it is a means to avoid many evils.

The despatch which encloses the above official letter savs, “it is understood to be the King’s intention to era- 1 bark for the United States of America.

With the excep tion ofthe South ofFrance, from whence there was not Sufficient time to receive accounts, all the rest of the Kingdom has mounted the tri-coloured cockade, called out the National Guard, and disowned the perjured and pros trate government of Charles X. Last night despatches were received from Bordeaux, and Metz Bothffiese important places have de clared in favor ofthe Provisional Government. There is litt’e doubt but that ail France with out any exception, will follow this example.— The treasures from Algiers, the army comman ded by Bcurrponl, and the remainder of the Swiss troops who accompany the Court, are ihe only supporter- that Charles X. can at pre sent rely upon.

One Dav Later.— The Ship Ilcicufes, Captain Rich, winch arrived at this port yes terday, brings a London paper of the 7th Au gust, containing accounts from Paris to the 6th. The King had quilted Rambouillet with his family, abandoning every thing: the diamonds of tho Crown had been taken by the National Guard, and the Royal troops wuich accompa nied the King, had capitulated We subjoin the particulars of this interesting intelligence: It was stated that the Ex King, Charles X. was about to seek an asylum in this country.— This statement, it will be seen, comes to us in an authentic form. The Morning Herald, announcing this tact, says: “If this be the case lie may meet With the deposed Majesty of Spain m his exile, and in the back settlements ol Kentucky, or the green solitudes of Penn sylvania, Charles Capet and Joseph Bonaparte may console each other’s misfortunes. It would be a curious and instructive subject of moral contemplation, to see :he Ex Kmgs, members of R yal families, living under the protection ol the simple President of the Re unite. It would be pleasant to see them for getting tbe cares ot Europe and the intrigues of Courts, enjeying in company the harmless pleasures of tne wilderness, angling in the same waters, or pursuing together the pastime ol the woods ” Paris was |>erfectly tranquil on the 5th. The news of the death of tbe King of Na tes is confirmed. He died at Turin, at the ge ol 53. He is succeeded by his son Fer dinand Charles Duke of Calabria, who is in his 21st year. A lett- r from Paris, August 4th, says—“It a remarkable fact that the people, the lower classes, the mere mob who were the real com- battants, and who triumph'd, have, after the victory, peaceably returned to their labor.— Peyrounet and Chantelaur, late Ministers, have been arrested at Tours.

We do not know the conditions which the commission ers were authorized to consent to, but it is marled that Charles X demands an income of four millions, with liberty Intake with him whoever he thinks proper. |i is thought however, that the latter part of his demands will not be granted, and that he will be allowed only a limit ed number of servants, well known to he such. He demand' d for the present onlpnne million, which has been paid in gold. It seems that the last funds which he had at his disposal had been distributed to the troops the day before yesterday.

Attor a brief explanation of the objects of the Meeting, by the Chair man, the following Address and Ticket wer® submitted for consideration, by the Delegates appointed by the citizens of tbe Neck, and four Wards of the city, and adopted with great unanimity. ADDRESS. Fellow Citizens—The agitation which pre* vails on the subject of the ensuing election,, arises from causes that deeply affect every member of our community. From the day when a voice was heard proclaiming, that it was time to calculate the value of the Union, the Iriends of Constitutional liberty, and ot’ public order, have had reason to feel the deep* est anxiety. In tbe strong and steady attach ment of the people to the Constitution,, may, however, be found the best reason to hope for the permanence of our happiness. Such too, is our strong feeling of the blessings of a freer government, and such our conviction that these blessings greatly depend on our happy Union, that ive believe, when the question is fairly presented, there are very few favourers of Disunion. But under cover of the well founded hostili ty ot this State to the Tariff, opinions, tending directly to the destruction of the Union, have been introduced. Doctrines, at variance wit Ik the sense and spirit of the Constitution; subt le explanations, which destroy the text, amft do away with contemporary exposition, have been urged with unceasing zeal; and measures have been pressed upon a people, under the influence of strong excitement which aro plainly inconsistent with the maintenance oC the Union. A strong and active party have been at work to- induce the State to interpose* and prevent the existing Revenue Laws froiu. being executed in South Carolina That such a proceeding, on the part ofthe Slate, is tan tamount to Disunion, has been publicly de clared by oar Representative in Congress; anil- the name of William Drayton will long-be honored, for the ability and independence with which he has stood forth, on this occasion, to maintain the integrity of the Constitution. We know that our opponents, to evade tfier force of the arguments against Nullifig&tion, sometimes profess to confine the action of the State to a mere declaration of the nullity of th»- law imposing protecting duties. But such a declaration, without finy farther interposition of sovereign power fo maintain it, would ex pose the authority ofthe Stale to humiliation and disgrace, and could have no effect (as i& fondly supposed) on -the collection of the ob noxious duties: for according to the settled law of the land, no defendant in an action on a Custom House B.nd, could submit the wncon- stitutionaiity of the Tariff to a Jury* In fact, the notion of Nc.Mification is new so much out of iavor, that its advocates swe glad to shift their ground, and affect to limit their views to tbe cal! of a convention—but a Convention tV onhj the means, of which Nullification is the end. It would argue great imbecility of purpose to call a Convention, ami after every thing was made ready, to r cede without striking tho long meditated blow. Let us at least preserve the honor of the State from tbe imputation of submitting to the suggestions of prudence, when we were deaf to the calls of duty. But if the high spirit of our countrymen should revolt (as it necessarily must) from the degrading supposition, that they are capable of assuming the attitude of resistance, for tb*a; mere purpose cf intimidating; or that they profess the inclination, without haviug the courage to strike-—then, the only alternative of Convention would be, Disunion and Civik IVar, This alternative, fellow citizens, brings home to our bosoms the necessity of opposing a measure, fraught with results so perilous; and which involves not only the fortunes and honor ol South Carolina, but the hopes of free dom throughout the world, it brings back to our attention tbe words of a man, who would never suffer his country’s escutcheon to be tarnished Col Drayton has said, “1 feel no hesitation in answering, that I should regard the separation of South Carolina from the U- nion, as incalculably more to bo deplored, than the existence of the law we condemn;” and such, we unhesitatingly avow, arc our opin ions. But we have been taunted with an inclina tion to submit to wrongs which o«ght to b© intolerable to a gallant and high rainded peo ple. In this imputation we are willing to share with the same noblo spirit, and like him, we refer for our vindication to the candor of those who know us. We adopt his fl»wn words, “it might he a*ked of me, whether I woafdre*- commend silence and inactivity, amidst th«f wrongs with which we are vffl eted. My an*. 9weris, no. What can constitutionally he done* by the Legislature, ought to be done by it —- Through Congress and the press, and com** munications with these States whose cause is common with ours, every possible exertion should be made to dispej the delusion under which the Vcovlth Uhatf AND SO WB SAY. In pursuing these means to redress oar grievances, we are greatly euconragi d by tho support of our venerable President, General ANDREW JACKSON. Whatever differ ence of opinion may have existed before his elevation to the Chief Magistracy of the Na« tion, his administration has developed an en lightened patriotism on which we fully rely? and we confidently trust, that his integrity and wisdom wifi, with the blessing of Heaven, re concile the discordant interest* now agitating our beloved Country, and' hind together its parts in one indissoluble bond of Unity and Peace. In such a crisis as the present, it is time to act on the Republican maxim of “MEAS* URES, not MEN.** It i^to the support of principles, and not ol’ men, that we invoke vour aid. when we submit tbe following Ticket for Member to Congress and "Members of the State Legislature.
