FORE G V INT.& LLIGEA CE. FROM THE FRENCH PAPERS. PARIA. AUGUST i 6. This day (Surohy ) his M 'icily the Empemr and King received a numerous deputation from the King. dum of Wettphalia. At five o'clock his Majefty went, with th . e aecuf tomed ceremonies. to the Palace of the Legiflative Body, to open the Seffinn. Hic Serene Highnell the Prince Grand Eleetor having obtained his MAjetly's perrnifflon to prefent the Deputies of the Legiflative Body, nominated fince the Sefliqn of the year 14, for the purple of taking the oaths, the lift of thefe Depu.ies was read by M. Lejeas, the tZetinr, and each of them came and took the oath at the font of the Throne. The names having been called ore►, his Majelly thus addrelted the Affembly : 44 GENTLEMEN) THE DEPUTIES CT THE DEPARTMENTS TO THE LEGISLATIVE BODYGEHTLII4III, THE TRIBUNES AND MEMBERS OF MY COUNCIL or STATE 44 Since your fall fitting, new wars, new triumphs, and new treaties of peace, have changed the political face of Eut ape. " If the Houfe of Brandenburgh, which was the fir R to confpire againft our independence, Rill reigns, it owes it to the fincere ffiendfhip with which the powerful Emperor of the North has infpired me.— A French Prince will reign on the Elbe. He will know how to reconcile the interetts of his new futs jab, with his firft and molt [acted duties. The Houfe of Saxony has recovered, at the end of fifty years, the independence which it had loft. The peo ple of the Duchy of Warfaw and the city of pantzic, have recovered their country and their rights. All nations unanimoufly rejoice to fee the pernicious in fluence which England exercifed over the Continent irrevocably deflroyed. France is united to the people of Germany by the laws of the Confederation of the Rhine—to thofe of Spain, of Holland, of Switzer land, and of the Italics, by the laws of our Federative fyflem. Our new connections with Rutile are ce mented by the reciprocal eßeem of thefe two great nations. In all that I have done, I have folely had in view the happinefs of my people, which is more dear to me than my own glory. " I with for a maritime peace. No refentment (hall ever influence my determinations. I can have none againft a nation which is the fport and victim of the faftions by which it is torn ; and which is equally deceived with refpea to the lituatlin of its its own affairs, as it is with refpea to that of its neighbours. 4 4 But whatever refult the decrees of Faovisescit have affigned to the maritime war, my people (hall always find me the fame ; and I (hail always find my people worthy of me. Frenchmen, your condua latterly, when your Emperor was removed upwards of five hundred leagues from yin, has encreafed my elicem, and the opinion which I had conceived of your ditpofiiion. I felt a pride in being the firlt am •ng you. If during thefe ten months of ablence and danger vor thoughts were turned to me, the pro:ls of affcaion which you have given me have contleutly excited my warmett emotions. All my cares—every thing which related even to the prefer •ation c f my life, dii not affect me, except on ac• count if the inteteil Oat y u felt for me, and the importance which they poilibly might be of, to your flume deftiny. Y u area gond and a great people. I h a v e e o c hdeted of different regulations to fimplify and improve our ialituti .ns. The nation has felt the harpy ffdfs of the eßablifhment of the Legion of H.mour. I have created different imperi 1i titles to give new fplendour to my principal fulicas; to honoar remarkable Cervices by remarkable rewards, and rhos to prevent the return of all feudal titles, wl.ich are incompatible with our Conflitntions. I he acc• ants of my Mitißers of Finance, and of the Treafury, w:ll explain to you the profperons fitu ation of our finances. My people will experience a confid:rahle diminution in the land tar. " My Minitter f the Interior wi',l acquaint you with the w in k% which have been commenced, or finifhed ; but what pt remains to be done is much more im p •rtant--ior it i, my with, that in every pet of my empire, even in the finalleß hamlet, the comfort of the inhabitants, and the value of the lands, may be iocieated by the effect of that general fyflem of itp ! provern‘nt which l intend. " Gentlemen —the Deputies of the Departments so the Legißative Body, your affiflance will be necef faty to enable me to attain this great object; and 1 have a right to place conflant reliance on it." This fpeech produced the moll lively enthufiafm— and his M,.jefly put an end to the fitting, amidit re peated Long live the Emperor." The fame acclatnatito.s were heard in 411 the greets through which his Maielly paled on his return. It is difficult, without having been witnefs of it. to rot m an idea of the magnificence of the Fete of which all Pati, was yefterday the theatre. The match of the troops, in tam tins to the church of I'otre Dame, along the ltrece and public places, clecorated w ith all that talk and clegarce could smile Ole innumerable crowd of fpeaators, their ottani *tons acclamations, the (plendour or their dreffes, the pomp of their equiriges, Ilfte number and beauty of uCops; all chef circymftances Waited, offered f , i i~l the fpellacle of the mat beautiful triumph of which m -der" E.trope can hoan. N t helm , able to enter into all the details of this memor ahl: Fete, we fhall content our fetves with marking the iv circum lances. The molt rematkable perhaps i. the fu 'den change of the weather. 'llse evening before, there had been a heavy fall J rain ; and in the morning of that very day, the Ikv, es,sered with thick clouds, c,snfirmed the menace. of the barometer, which indi• cated wet weather. All theft difagreeables vanished —nor ..as the Fete of the hero troubled by any awk ward eiscomilance. Never, perhaps, wasthe public ioy Miniftlied in France in a manner more general or more ingenious. At every llep, emblems and infcriptions exprefed in a marner the molt happy, the fentiments of love and admiration with which all France is penetrated. for the great man who honours and governs it. Only to cite one example, a merchant of the greet of St. Honore bad painted the Emperor Rending upon a globe—he touched the earth with the point of his (word—from whence an olive tree was fpritsgini up, whole branches darted around the bade. This al. legory, as fipple as ingenious, was expread in the following words Ms Pacificareur du Monde." The games which were etetuted its the ware., be. tween the Bridge of the Thuilleries and that of Con corde, offered a fpedrcle truly enchanting. The little fqn tdroos of veffels deltined for the fight ad vanced td the found of mufic and trumpets ; inname. rable fpeetators, diltributed on the quays and fl )acing baths, ami on the velfels belonging to the fwimming fchool, mingled their loud acclamations with thofe of the conquerors; After the fight, it was ezpetited that Foriofo wont,' exhibit himfellwalking on a rope, the whole (pace which feparates the two bridges; but an ob(lacle oppofeti that expetiment, upon the pa& bility of which, the mathematicians, douhtlefs, had not been confulted. The artificial firework executed on the Bridge of Concorde, terminated this fuperb Fete, in a manner the molt brilliant. The crowd then vifited the, illu• mina ions e—thofe of the Thuilleries, of the Luxem bourg, of the Palace of Jolliet, of the Hotel of the Miniller of Police, fuccefivzly attratted the attention of the curious ; b st it was to the illuminations of the • Palais Itayal, that the general preference was given. Yefierday, at nine in the morning, Marlhal Bet. thief was relented by his Serene Highnefs the Prince Arch-chancellor of the Empire, in order to take the oath, which he fwore to his Majefly. His Maje(ly, in the Council of Adminiftration ' which he held on Thurfday, has iffeed an arret that the works of the canal of Burgundy fhould be reruns lied this year ; that the workmen on the road from Mayence to Paris fhould be tripled, in order to finial that road in the twat of the nczt year that the workmen on the road from Lyons to Mount Ceni -, and on that from Savona to Alexandria, and thole at the port cf Savona, thould be doubled ; that a bridge thould be built on the Scrivia. between Tor tuna and Alexandria ; that a roai frem Wefel to Paris Os suld be opened, the works to commence this year toward Wefel ; that the two arches of the bridge of Sr. Cloud, which are of wood, lhould be replaced by two atches none ; that the works fr a (tone bridge at Scores, on the road from Paris to Verlaine'. fhould be begun this year ; that public granaries, ca pable of containing nuroy millions of quintals of corn, Itnuld be built on the fide of the As fenal and of La Garre ; and that, laltly, the water-conduit of the Ourcq in Paris, thould be difpoftd in foal a manner that the waters of the Beuvronne, which fhall be difcharged into the Bafon of La Vilette, fhonld be hereafter &reeled into the nrects of St. Dennis and St. Martin, upon the B-ttlevards, and thould fupply water to the Fountain of Innocents ; that the works neceffary to dintibute this great quantity of water into all the streets of Pads lhaold be continued. — Four hunslrei thouland francs are to be referved, in order to conitrua a bridge upon the Garonne, before Bourdeaol, as loon as the plans (hall be received.— ill'oniteur. ♦UGUIT 17. On the isth, the day of the Fete, his Majefty having received fuccalively her MAjeity the Emprefs, and the homage of the Princes and Psincelfes of his family, of the Princes of the Empire, of the Ladies and Officers of his houfehold, as well as thofe of her Majefiy, and others of the Princes, Miniiters, and great Officers of the Empire, the Diplomatic Body, and the Members of the Sift Corps of the State; pro. ceeded to the Metropolitan Church, where the Em. prefs had arrived before him, with the foreign Princes and the principal authorities. The houfes in all the areets through which their Majeflies paired, were decorated with colours, flowers, devices, &c. while a confiderable confliience of citizens exprefred their joy and affeEtion by loud acclamations. The Metropolitan Church was ornamented with tapettry—the choir and the principal feats in the nave were occupied by the public bodies invited to the ce lemony. Her Majefty the Emprefs, the Princedes, the reign Princes, the Diplomatic Corps, the Ladies and Officers of their Majetlies' honfehold, occupied the tribunes, which were richly decorated ; a great num ber of perfons of diflinetion filled the other parts of the choir and the nave, while the body of the church below was filled by the Unmet& crowd tit,* affem -1 bled 91A the 9.ct.aqoa. The Ti Dem, compored by M. Lefuenro Direaot of his Majefty's band, was executed in a mafterly manner by the muficians of the chapel. When their Majefties returned to the Palace of the Tuillilies, they received the fame teltimoDies of the public joy and gratitude. The day was entirely occupied with public games and fetes, while gaiety was difplayed without any difcrder. In the evening, there was an affembly at Court, a general illumination, and a concert at the Tonle. ries—and at nine o'clock, a beautiful difplay of fire works upon the Pont Neuf. When their Majefties appeared on the great balcony of the Tuilleries, to hear the Concert and fee the fire-works, the enthu fiafin of the multitude was renewed, and the immenfe numbers that filled the garden of the Palace made the air refound with the reiterated Stouts of long live the Emperor ! long rtve the Einprefs ! The Princefs of Wirtemberg, 'Qzeen of Wellpha- Ha, was mated at Strafburgh on the tAttli, from whence the was to fet out for Paris on this day by the way of Nancy. Martha' Beffieres has been ap pointed Plenipotentiary to receive her Royal High• nefs at the frontiers, and conduit her to Paris. We are affnred, that on the day before yeßerday, a Sews: Confubum, for the fuppreffion of the Tribu nate, was prefented to the Confervative Senate. General Klein, General Beaumont, General Beg. ninot, M. Fabre (de l'Aude ), P refident r of the Tri bunate, M. Curee, Tribune, the Arohbilhop of Turin, and M. Dupont, Mayor of Paris, have been appointed Senators. It Is alibi eported. that the Tribunes, Faure and Alban, have been appointed Counfellors oc State. MADRID, JULY 17. Their Majellies the King and Q2een of Spain, inanifeft on all nceafionsto the French Amhalftdor the jly they have felt at the late events. Every thing that turns nut fortunate for the Emperor of the Fieneh, is a 'lnane of fatisfaftion to his Catholic Majedy. This brave Sovereign expreffts his fentiments with degree of candour peculiat to himfelf.—willonitter. FROM THE Dirrai PAPERS.
