(Signed) v—. PARIS, ss GERMINAL, APRIL is. There was yefterday, being Palm Sunday, an amazing concourfe at the Church of Notre Dame, where the Cardinal CATRARA induEted the new Archbifhop of Paris, (M. de BILLLOY,) with a de gree of pomp and ceremony which the Catholic Church would not have difowned even in its proud ett s. The Cardinal alfo, by his fpecial au thority from the Pope, confecrated an Archbifhop and two Bi(hops. The firft was M. CAMBACEILS3, brother of the fecond Conful, who is named Arch. bithop of Rouen. The others are, PANCIMENT, Bifhop of Vannes, and BIRK!' a, Bifhop of Orleans. The Miniftcr cot . the Interior, KCHAPTAL, affifted at this ceremonial. The Cardinal was efcorted, as ufual, by a detachment of the ConfularGuards. 23 OIRRIIIIAI. •FRIL 13. A (port difpatch. from VICTOR Hooting, dated Cayenne, 29 Pluviofe, 18th February, Rates, that his Colony is very trawled. Another of the Lime date we itanflate almoft entire, to thew the Colonial fpirit which aauates the French Government. Citizen Minißer—l have the honour to fend you copies of the proclamations add other pro ccedirzs of the foi-eifont Government of Guade loupe, with which I refufe to correfpond. The perufal of thefe performances, equally foolifh and inflammatory, will th ew you that it is in vain to attempt to change the human heart, particularly in the Colonies ; that the molt difficult talk which the Adminifirations fent from France have to per form is to refrain men's paffions ; and that they can never fucceed but by a continual vigilance, and an unfhaken firmnefs. If the feeble Govern ment which eziftedprevious to the 18th Brumaire, had ezercifed fevergy . againft the firft of its agents in the Colonies, who allowed the authority of the nation to be degraded and defpifed in his perfon, we fhould not have feen fuck inflames of mutiny and rebellion renewed five times in the courfe of a year. I ought to inform you, that the men who have got polleffion of power at Guadeloupe are the fame who for eight years have diflinguifhed themfelves as the enemies of the Mother Country, and the s uiftigitors of every difturbance." Vicroa HUGURS then goes on to partkularife the proceed ings of thefe men, to whom he afcnibes the fur render of the place to the Englifh. He concludes with !'aging—" There men will never pardon me for having always (hewn the greateft reluaance to raife to military or civil rank, the Negroes f or Men of Colour. Twenty-two years refidence in the Colonies had taught me to know the dangers of this nteafure ; and though invefted in my million to Guadaloupe, with as much power as any agent ever had, I always guarded againft thefe innova tions in the Colonial fyftem, and my correfpond. ence at that time with the Government thews, that I conftantly Rruggled, refpeafully, yet cou rageoufly, againit the fatal fentiment which pro moted the Blacks and Men of Colour, to the ruin and degradation of the Whites ; none of thefe, though I employed them more than any other, Ices ever raifed by me to the rank of Chef de Battalion. And if this fyftem had been adopted by the agents of Government in the Colonies, the wounds with which they have been covered would have been lets deep, and would not now have been found fo difficult to heal.

VIENNA, MARCH 27.—1 t had been reported here that accounts had been received from Con ftantinople of the Ratification of the preliminaries of Peace, which the Turkiffi Ambaffador figned at Paris in the month of Odober WI ; but by the loft Englifh courier who arrived here from Con. Rantinople, on his way to London, we learn, that the Porte Rill hefitates to ratify thole Preliminaries, and perfilis in its objections. By the fame con veyancewe learn, that the EngliffiAmbaffador, Mr. STRATTON, who, it is known, failed with a parti cular conuniffion to Egypt, had returned to Con itantinople the latter end of February. The Palatine of Hungary has been for tome days at Vienna, to confer with the Court relative to the approaching Diet, the object of which is to give to that kingdom a new and improved confli tution, the old being in many refpeds nnfuitable to the prefent times. This Conftitution will confer many eflential benefits on the whole nation, and will confift of forty articles, one of the principal of which will be the free importation of Hungarian produes into the Autlrian Rates. MARCH 31—P14MAX Occou, in Order to ftrengthen himfelf againft the Porte, has conclud ed treaties of alliance with feveral other Pans, particularly the Mims of Travinick and Janina, each of which are to aflift him with a corps of from fix to Sow men.

They contain the important de tails from St. Domingo alluded to in the Tele- graphic Difpatch in the Taft Paris Papers received. It is not eafy to determine abfolutely whether the intelligence fhould be confidered as difaftrous, as announced by ptivate accounts quoted by us on Saturday, or fhould be called good a evvri as it was by the Telegraph. It is admitted, that the Blacks under General Ma UREtAS gained tome needs over General Humeral. ; but the latter, with his detachment, is never more fpoken of, either in the difpatches of General LECLERC, or of the Admiral. It appears too that the divifions of Generals Bon usv and Dsast.Le were abfolutely defeated by 141attav pas, and compelled to retreat. Thefe difaffers were evidently the confequence of the very estenfive kale oP operations adopted by the French General, becaufe different divifions sating from different points feldom can realife the fcheme of the original combination, and are in danger of being beaten in detail. This was evidently the cafe in partial inftances; but the full meafure of the ca lamity, and whether others betides Hu KIIIRT'S de tachment fuffered, is not mentioned. At the time, however, when there tranfadions paled in the South•weft difirid of the Wand, the divifions of fing upon Toussamr, and endeavouring to keep him confined in the Sutithwefl peninfttla (as we cenjeetured would be the place of attack), were more fuccefsful. On the 23d of Febttar y Roc ti Ast mu defeated, at a pofition called La Ravine-a- Coleuvre,Tou :war in perfon, after a moil bloody confli&. This event enabled the Commander in Chief to draw fo dote round MAVREPAS that he furrerdered to Genetal D2BELLE (though without communication with the . Commander in Chief), bringing in aOOO troops, and difbanding iipoo cul tivators (Blacks, or peafantry of the country).— This certainly was a great blow to TOVSSAIhT. The whole accounts, however, (hew that he and his ' Generals had immenfe influence over the Blacks. The number of the irregulars (the cultivators) proves it indubitably. General LECLERC, however, exprefres a hope in his laf letter, of the 6th, that TOUSSAINT will not long be able to efcape him. TOUSSAINT has retired to the Mirebalais, and all the divifions are preffing round him. His only chance of efcape is by beating feparately the divifions which in fo dif ficult and inacceffible a country cannot aet with much concert. Llcxsitc fays he never taw any thing like the difficulties of the ground and the frength of the enemy's pofition, fence ever he was a foldier, and not even in the Alps. The defeat of Ton:suer on the 23d, however, is confidered as irretrievable. The General concludes with fay ing, that nothing equals the fatigue endured by the troops. All the. maritime Rations arc in the hands of the French, but almoll all the towns have been burnt. The difpatchcs of the Admiral add many important details. It appears that the redudion of the Spanifh part of the Ifland was at tended withfome difficulty. Admiral GAN TN EAUME has brought home to Brett a divifion of the fleet, which will no doubt be Coon employed in carry ing out freflt reinforcements of men and flores. It is now pretty evident that the French Govern ment is determined to admit, as little as poflible, any confideration or power being atta-.:•ed to the Blacks in their Wands. The publication of the letter of VICTOR Hucuts has evidently taken place, on purpofe to thew what fyflem they ap prove. LECLERC'S difpatches arc in a (pink of great animofity again( the Blacks, who are doomed to be as fubordinate as they ever were at any for mer period or under any denomination. Yetterday arrived two Dutch Mails. Betides the articles ufual by that conveyance they brought the Hamburgh Papers, due by two of the three Hamburgh Mails now due. The articles by the Mails are not uninterefing. A letter from the Hague, dated April 4, rays— A Hotel is now preparing here for the accom modation of the Englith Ambafrador. The perfon defined to fill that office it is fuppofed will be Mr. LISTON ; however this maybe, one is expeeted here after the exchange of the ratification. We are affured that the Dutch Emigrants, who are in the pay of England, to the number of five or 6000 men, will be taken into the pay of the Prince of ORANGE immediately after the affair of the indem nities in Germany is terminated." Yefterday morning after their MAJESTIES had heard divine fervice at the Palace Chapel, Win dfor, the Royal. FAMILY and Attendants received the Sacrament at the hands of the Bifliop of NORWICH, drifted by Dr. Finial. This is the Aril time their MAjt silts ever attended divine fervice on an Eager Sunday at any other place of worthip than the Chapel-Royal, at St. James's. Previous to their Majcsrivs going to Chapel, the detachment of the Prince's Light Dragoons, with their Band, and the battalion of the Fiat Re giment of Guards, under the command of Colonel Timiturom, were formed in line in the Court yard, and fainted the ROYAL FAMILY as they paffed. After . the Chapel the Royal. FAMILY vifited Frogmore Gardens, which, under the judicious management of Mr. Pates, have undergone much recent improvement, and are now very beautiful and piCturefque. The Dues of KENT left town _early ycilerday morning for Windfor. After paling a few days with the Royal Family, he will proceed to Fal mouth, to embark on board the Isis man of war for Gibraltar, where he will probably remain for fome years. Though his Royal Highnefs may not be much miffed in the circles of gaiety and diffipation, his lots will be fevercly felt by many of the indigent and diftreffed, to whom he ever proved a Ready and moft generous benefaCtor. Indeed, we know few characters, whole life has been fo uniformly and aftively employed for the benefit of others, as that of his Royal Highnefs. The KING has been pleated to grant the dignity of a Baron of the United Kingdom of Great Bri lain and Ireland unto Sir EDWARD Lew, Knight, Chief Juftice of his Majefty's Court of King's Bench, and to the Heirs Male of his Body lawfully begotten, by the name, ftyle, and title of Aaron Er.i.ssiwitoucti, of Ellenborough, in the county of Cumberland. Mr. SPENCLIL SMITH, his Britannic Maje ft y's Ambaffador at the Sublime Porte, paired through Nanci on the Bth of April. He is on his way to Paris, where he will flop a few days before he pro ceeds to London. General HENNIKIIII and family arrived at the Duchefs of CHANDOS'S houfe in Grofvenor-fquare, on Saturday evening from Ireland. A Mr. !di is very 116 is negotiating the Irifh Loan.
