" Bonaparte on Tuesday wis seen the gr,eatest part of the morning at the wiridows of the cabin, generally in conversation with Bet trand or L'Alle. :nand, and occasionally looking wait a small opria Rlau at the gazing groups crowded in the vessels be low, of all ages and all occupations, and sometimes appeared reading a newspaper ; but he had noun et the usual French gesticulation, and his countenance seldom altered. He is now very corpulent ; and 1011. stetting that idea with the print of -him, full length, as taken standing With his arms across on the parade, or the older print of him, as musing in the garden • •of Malmaisen, will give the best idea of his person.. He was dreised in a very plain green Coa l with a red collar, also perfectly plain, coming close round his neck, the coat buttoned close on the breast, and • cut back in the usual French fashism, sheaving a white waistcoat and pantaloons; a silver star on the left I . Nrcast, two large gold•epaulettes, a low cocked hat perfectly plain, and high boots. his complvainn is a clear nnitorm brown, no mnstachios or whiskers, only his jet black hair appeari , ig before the ear and a little behind. His eye is .black, rather small, a _ _ bteady, fixed look. The most remarkable feature is the chin, which is very prominent; lips small; form ing altogether a handsome, and divested of the ideas happily inseparable from his person, a pleasinv coun tenance: lie is Tither bald on the top of the head. " Soon after five o'clock he appeared, walking steadily the length of the quarter-deck, on the star board side, with L'Allemand ; Bonaparte kept next t e side of the ship, with his hat on, rather attending to his companion's conversation, than taking - much part in it himself. 'He frequently used his handker chief, and otherwise bad generally his right hand in the pocket of his pantaloons, and his lett throw . ing back his coat ; sometimes his bands just crossed behind. He paused, more or less, at the end cf each tutu,occasionally noticing some others of his suite, who all mimed to keep at a cettain distance, and L'Allemand and all, with their hats off. Captain Namara was standing at the gang.way with some of t is officers, and a French officer, dressed in blue, covered v ith silver lace and embroidery, said to be S. vary. There %ere two or three ladies,(Madame Bertrand and others) much dressed in tar French fashion. All St c med to treat II( naparto as the Ern-- rem- ; who appeared as one in thPught, walking a very steady pace, quite upright, now and'then stoop? ing a little to lark through the port-holes at the ors-. sels alongside. His person altogether gives one the • idea of a strong man. 44 . At six o'clock the bell rang, dirmer was an mounted, and he went below, followed by his atten. &nu. Our jolly tars, with their usual good humour, put out a board, chalked— , He's gone to dine.'— He remained, hc.wever, not much above half an hour, when another board announced his re .appearance on the deck ; where he resumed his walk in the same spot, occasionally with a child, and conversing with Bertrand or the ladies. He continued walking till 'tusk, when the view of this extraordinary man was closed to our countrymen, for the ship sailed at five, nest morning for Plymouth." *MAL?

The appearance of the seamen seemed to gratify him highly. and the marines, at his reqiiest, exercised be fore.him. His curiosity On every point is.unbqunded, tnd versatility of talent and powers of conversation on all subjects, whether trifling or imporsant, mu- Dishing ; such, indeed, is his appetite for information, that he often freely addresses the seamen .and nu., fines. It is impossible, we have learnt from good; authoriiy, to i..iagine the fascinations of Bonaparte's address and conversation, which compel involuntary esteem and attachment, and bereave even those most inimical to !kiln in their hearts of all hostile feelings, while they remain in his presence. Like the eye of the serpent, some hapless bird, they appear , to be irresistible, of which -we could :elate some sur prising instances.

PARIS, JULY 24. *The terms of the peace announced in - our gapers are lillieved to be pretty near the truth. The for tresses to be retained by the Allies are Strasburg, Mets, Valenciennes, ar.d Lille. People, however, ate convinced, that supposing the reports on this head to be well founded, the conditions stated cannot be exe cuted, as long as the least spirit of disaffection re- mains among the troops, and ti is certain, that up to this moment frerh teinloteentents um continually coming to the Allies. As for the integrity of the Fieticir nation, it seems that the French themselves feel the justice of the claim which the Allies may make of the cession of a line of northern.fortresses, and of some districts on the Rhine—pethips the above .articles are those which the French hope to ob tain, and which have been proposed to the Allies.— Should the reported conditions be founded in truth, it may be presumed that the state of affairsin France may easily give the Allies occasion to maintain a sullicieut force there for some sears to come. and to keep possession of the above named fortresses. qfpLOGNS, JULY 29. • While the public papers in England, Germany, and elsewhere, eagerly express the general opinion of the necessity of reducing France, once for.all, to the happy impossibility of tormenting Europe, by its Ituobition and insati4ble thirst of conquest, the Jour. 1141 of this town 'ust•Communieated to us a pieee upon this sub' If .lireathes the most ehed pattiotistri t carries conviction .to the mind of flu: reader.

But Europe hopes that the Plenipotentiaries of the Allied Powers will Mew as much firmness in their negotiations, as their Generals hive shewa on, the field of battle. The French, from the moment that peace • was signed with them last year, threw off the mask, and 'have proved b> ;heir conduct, that all ritignanimity has been absolutely thrown away upon them, and that not content with refusing a morsel of broad to the allied troops, who were leaving France, they loaded them with insult and contempt, while their public prints, in unison with the prevailing spirit of this mama, which despises every other, did not cease to pour forth invectives against the operations of the Congress at Vienna, and against the English Go vernment, trying every means to sow discord among the. Allies. Though it is evident that not only the army, but a great pan of the nation declared for Bonaparte, all wal affect to deny hint with their lips, while they re. serve him the Ent place in their hearts. This nation, so turbulent and so inconstant, ought to be put in a state which will constantly remind it,' in spite of it. self, of the bitter fruits of its conduct. France, with the boundaries given it in 1814, is mach too power- Itsl and too dangerous for the wig:shouting States, and will swallow them up, sooner or later, if the pre sent opportunity is neglected, considerably to reduce' its power and its extent, and so to ensure the future peace of Europe.
