29 MAY 1830, Page 5

The news received this morning from France is important. A

great sensation has been caused at Paris by the popular excite- ment which exists in Normandy. A gang of incendiaries, or- ganized, it would appear, have been laying waste the province. Seven or e:ght individuals were apprehended, on suspicion, but afterwards dismissed. The peasantry, fancying that sonic criminal of high rank was screened by the authorities, rose upon the prison- ers whenever they were set at liberty, and according to some ac- counts, murderol them—according to others, a party of soldiers became their vict:ins. Troops are marching ttpon the disturbed districts, and the most vigorous measures are about to be adopted to restore tranquillity. The Algerine expedition said from Toulon on thc 25th. The 20th had been fixed on as the day of sailing, but a thick fog coming on, prevented the vessels front going out. While the fleet was getting under weih, the streets were deserted, tie whole po- pulation having betaken themselves tome heights around the town to witness the departure of the armament. It should seem that the Paella of Egypt is bestirring himself, though for what purposy is not exactly known. Acci.ding to some accounts, he has collected 80,000 troops at Damietta. He has mustered his whole fleet, ancl exercises it regularly. It is supposed that he will not take part in the attack upon Algiers, but that he will endeavour to complete the subjection of Candia.
