(TRANSLATIOS.) Petit Wirvies, ittkii slk On the day beforn yesterday I had the honour of receiving your Grace's letter, dated Joncourr; 26th alitallit, sent by your Aide-de , camp, Capt. Cathcart, whom I have requested to inform ToUr Excellency that Marshal Count Rothallier had arrived this morn ing to summon the place in the hame of Louis XVIII. He entered into a negotiatibn with Lieutenant-Gene , ral Despreaux, Governor of Quesnoy. The only re sult, horNever, produced by tkis was a very singu ler reply from the Governor, from which it appeared to me that he might possibly be induced to capitu late, and, I determined at once on firing some shells and shot into the town, and of advancing our tirail lours to the very Omit, to annoy them in every guar , ter, with a view of making some impression on the Commandant, and of endeavouring by that means to excite to revolt the National Guards and inhabitants, who are said to be well disposed towards us. From the information collected as to the fortifica II - 'ions, there appeared to me no reasonable chance of taking it by escalade, the ditches being filled with water, in addition to the inundation which had been made. At eleven o'clock at night, I ordered five howitaers and six Opounderi to open on the town, and I continued the fire until three o'clock at day. break. The tarts was at one time on fire in three places, but the fire was shortly extingoiihed. Some men were killed in the. town and several wounded, which appears to hare produced exactly the effect which 1 wished. Last night General ANTHINO. who commands the Indian brigade, • sent an Officer with the proposals to the Commandant, according to the authority which I bad given to him, and coupled with a threat of bombardment and assault. Upon this a negotiation was entered into, Which ended in the signing of the following capitulation, this night; that is to say, that he would send an Of• ficer, with an Aid-de-Camp of General Anthing, to Cambray, to ascertain the fact of the residence of the King of France in that town, and the abdica tion of Bonaparte in favour of his son, and that, thereupon, he would give us.this night at six o'clock possession of the Porte des Fonts, to be occupied by a company of artillery, and that the next morning . I the garrison should march out of the town ; the Na tional Guards to lay down their arms and return *to their homes ; the Cornmanderi and that part of the garrison who were not National Guards, were to g o and receive the orders of Louis XVIII. in who name We shall take possession of the town. ,„ • Denersr, July 4, ti 446 _ I Marshal Piince Blucher iias strongly opposed by the enemy in takieg the position en the, left of the Setae, which I reported io my dis patch of the 2d instant, that he intended to take up on that day, particularly on the heights of St. Cloud and Meudon; but the gallantry of the Prussian troops, under General Ziethen, surmounted every obstacle, and they succeeded finally in establishing themselves on the heights of Meudon, and in the vil lage of hsy. The French attacked them again in , hay, at three O'clock in the morning of the Sd, but were repulsed with considerable loss; and finding that Paris was then open on its vulnerable side, that a communication was opened between 'the .two Allied Armies by a bridge which I bad established at Ar genteuil, and that a British corps was likewise toe ing upon the left of the Seine, towards the Pont de Netlilly, the enemy sent to desire that the firing might cease on both sides of the Seine, with a view to the negociation, at the Palace of St. Cloud, of a Military Convention between the armies, under which the -French army should evacuate Paris. Officers accordingly met on bath sides at Si. Cloud; and I inclose le copy . of the Military Con verttion which was agreed tq last night, and whicb had been ratified by the Marshal Prince Blucher and me, and by the Prince d'Echmuhl on the pin of the French army. This Convention decides, all the military questions at this moment existing here, esuLtouches aothiog political. General Lord Hill has marched to take possession of the posts evacuated by agreement this day, and I propose taniorrow to take possession of Montmatre. I send this dispatch by my Aid-de-Camp, Captain Lord Arthur Hill by way of Calais. He will be able to inform your Lordship of any further particu lars, and I beg lestie to recommend him to your fa vour and protection. I hive, &c. (Signed) WELLINGTON.

Approved, (Signed) Marshal the Primo D'Ecassuat.. In addition to the details contained in our own Gana* Extraordiaary respecting the late events in and around Paris, we have received such accounts as the rebels themselves have been pleased to give, through the medium of the Moniteur of Tuesday. The fact of the surrender of Paris is studiously con cealed, but it is evident that all was over with the rebel faction. The French Futids on Monday were greatly on the rise, whilst the leading rebels were full of despond ency. The regular troops In Paris, and these were not few, would, perhaps, have fought for the rebel (fuse; but the tlational Guards would in all proba bility have taken the part of the Kt NO, had matters been pushed to a desperate extremity. The Com mission of Government, therefore, :rem to have serried on a private negociation, the purport and e f led of which were communicated to the Two Cham bers in a secret sitting, which was protracted till late in the night ; but it was not to be expected that the proccediags of that sitting would be made public till the latest moment. Tae greatest efforts appear to have been made by Davourr to induce the Duke of WELLINGTON and Prince BLUCHER to consent to an armistice. Ile wrote a letter to them on the tfDt'a ulti:no, urging the heavy responsisifity they would take on themselves by refusing such a proposal. It does not appear that this letter was ever honoured wish an answer. The debates in the Two Chambers appear to have been very warm and tumultuous, but to have led to little or no result ; for we consi4er ai nothing the address of the two Chambers to the French peopV, and the letter of DAVOUST t and a number of other most notorious traitors, to the Representative Body. The former of these documents talks of ceding tofor ce,and protest ing in behalf of the rights of the oppw, French nation." —The latter says, •' If it is resolved to horrlde us, we shall know how to die." It must be owned that such language as this does not indicate a very lofty conidence of victory. Among the more curious tracts of revolutionary wisdom which the Debates of the Chamber eithibit, we cannot but notice, that just Its the artVlyiraisid power is falling headlong to the their &mind, it i a s pi n a ti n ni i, n f i a c.ti c t hat .nstit t u 4 t e in C n o l tri a ztt t ee h s h atn as: war/turn; to solace the luifirs of his :tenni! cation, has humbly besought the ReprelcoM'ites to gibe him the library of Trianon, to vihith th most politely at:ceded.

TWO O'CLOCK. We stop the press to state, that Mr. Rot inctimor, a gentleman whose name has frequently been Men tioned as the bearer of early and authentic hi telligence from France to this country, has received a letter from Rotten, dated on Wednesday lase, which states positively, that l3oNarotirs., and his Mother, and brothers Jcaosta, JosErn k r4 Luctex, weie arrested at Rnuen that morning by the Gens d'Armerie and Folic?, and placed in confinr ment under a strong guard. They were on their way for the coast for embarkation to Ametic.t.

It was not known where Boa/km - re was. Sailed this morning the fast. sailing packet Princess Charlotte, with an Austrian Messenger• and several passengers, for Ostend." " BRIGHTON, TituasoAr, Form .Tunic. " M English Packet 13 jun arrived under the West CI if from the opposite Coast, the first that has come over, with many pas sengers, but very little news.

BONA PA RI r, they sq, Is at Rockford. A French fiAlinr beat had also arrived here early in the morning, for the chance of pa.aingera back : she brought no news whatever. She got this avenirg treer weigh, and at seven o'clock was nearly out of sight. Great van. titles of luggage and a carriage were landing during this ( trams from a large shore boat, which had received them from the packet. The arrival of this vessel, and the ease with which any other may now sail from Dieppe, clearly thews, that whatever flag may be fling on the French Coast, the oil Governan nt of B ostarAnTr and his adherents I* at an end.

The Earl of LIVERPOOL came in immediately urn his arrivaL Earl BATHURST soon afterwards went with Lord ARTHUR to the Paleen •ReGENT. A ante was immediately sent to the Duchess of Weturasroe, with information th:st the Doke was well. We are happy to add, that the British army was left, in high health and spit its. We have this morning received German Papers to the Ist instant, but they are not of an importance that would justify us in delaying our publication. Their contents may In summed up in few words.— The Russian, Austrian, and Bavarian Armies, are in rapid advance, as also large reinforcements for the 'Prussian army. Happily the Duke of WELLINGTON and Prince Bteemot had force sufficient to subdue the rebels without waiting for them. B iston papers to the 11th ult. have arrived. The .Legislature of Massachusetts opened on the Sd, and the speech of the Governor to the two houses oa that occasion is fraught with sentiments on the late war, which mark the differences of political opinion in that State. compared with those which support the system of MADISON'S Government. The Senate and House of Representatives returned answers in the same spirit . . The New York papers contain an account of some clacnments lately published at St. Domingo by order of CIMISTnektE, relative to the agents sent by the French Government to St. Domingo, and a pro. posal made by Crum-Teem to Perion for an union of the Haytians. Prrion, it appears, rejected the pro posal. stating, that CurusTorns offered titles with one hand, while he carried a dagger in the other.— Count LISIONADE, one of CHRIsTOPHE'S Ministers, has addressed PETION'S sGbjects on that rejection. He says the Deputies were received well by every one except Priam; himself, accuses him of having made a treaty with BONAPARTE and protected a F. ench spy, and declares that he believes him to be sold to the French whites. The House of Commons adjourned last night to Tuesday next; by which time the Lords will have finichcd the business before them, prior to the prom. pit i i art. Mr. IVurrnitran, whose death we mentioned yes terday, was in his fiftieth year, leaving Lady ELIZA. ri:Ta, his wife, (sister of Earl GREY) with tWo sons and two danyhters, to lament a logs, great to so. ciety, and to them irreparable. The elder son, neatly of age, will inherit the landed estates, fuil ‘20,060 per annum.; the eldest daughter was married, a 'herr time since to the brother of the Earl of Av. mn» GRAva. A considerable property in the funds, and the large capital in the extensive brewery, from whence the fortune of the family was derived, are . expected to be apportioned as an ample provision for the junior children.
