Since this reform, the Parisians, it ' would appear, have turned perfectly loyal. " We hear no more," says the Journal des Abair of the 11th—a We hear no more seditious cries, and the disaffected are kept down by a wise, active, and super- Wending Puke, which is felt every where, but seen no where." What a change in twenty-four hours ! The same 30urnal, on the 10th, :barged the Police with supineness, in suffering those disgraceful scenes at the Thuilleries which threatened the peace of Paris and of the word.-1f we may now credit the Jour nals, every thing is quiet and tranquil at Paris; but our private letters inform us, that, excepting the sup pression of those public insults which were offered to the KING at the Thuilleries, no improvement what ever has taken place: nor can any be expected, till the arm of Justice has reached some of the culprits, who strut about with all the insolence and impudence which unpunished guilt ever emboldens. We hardly know what to make of the Army of the Loire. It is still talked of as being kept pntire, and its number is stated at forty-five thousand. It is, how. ever, commanded by MACDONALD. This army ought certainly w be broken up, and sent to widely-distant quarters, if not disbanded. l'AltIS, AUGUST tV The Allied Sovereigns, with the Princes of their fannies, will dine today with the King. Tne equipages of the Duke d'Angonleme,were sent off this morning for Boordeaus, and those of the Duke de Berri for Lille. Baron Stein, formerly Minister to the King of Prussia, and who was outlawed by Bonaparte, has arrived at Paris. • The intelligence of the surrender of Longwy is not confirmed : on the contrary, that place, as well as Montmedy and Mesieres, are strictly blockaded. Several officers of the lst.and 6th free corps, who v►ere at Metz, having, on being disbanded, mani fested an intention to commence a pkttizan war, were put in prison. Two Prussian Commissioners have arrived at St. Quentin, in order to prepare 40,000 rations fur the 6th and ith corps d'artnee, which are to pass through that place as this day. • Fresh corps of Prussian cavalry are in full march for Paris from the Rhine. The Saxon Royal Corps formed in the vicinity of Paderborn, under the orders of the Duke of Saxe Cobourg, has joined the- Austrian Army of the Upper Rhine, under the command of Prince Schwan senberg. Persons who have visited the lines of the Army of the Loire, estimate its 'effective force at 45,000 men. The corps of the Old Guard are the same as when they quitted Paris. We are assured that a Declension of the Al• lied Sovereigns, which will appear in a Tew days, is of a nature to tranquillise all men's minds. It is also said that the era of the Ft te of his Majesty will be that of a .dtfinitive arrangement, according to which the greater part of the allied troop% will quit . , A i S m i'A 1 , , Pll 1. di in al 1 a a a ti c I 1 1 i 4 1 i 1 I 1 4 I 'inflict. and iLai only a imeeient nifr ec inll be left to maintain internal tranquillity/. It is not generally barn thit Bonaparte had organised a small naiy at Attu at Elba. The Mese, we understand. hails declared war against England, and are fitting out an Expedition against Sc. Helena to Nearer their Sovereign. The Pope has written to the King of Spain to induce jsim to restore 'the order of the Jesuits in his King dom, as a measure necessary for the maintenance of religion, the reformation of manners, and the pro gress of the sciences. • The following is the article inserted in the Gar,eite de France of Friday last, which gave offence to Fonche, and caused the suppresiion of that day's The Sovereigns assembled at Vienna solemnly declared that they made war against BONAPARTE and his adherents only. They have conquered BONA. JPARTE, and he has now surrendered himself as their prisoner. Paris and a Fat of France are occupied by the armies of Europe : France expects the deci sion of the Allied Sovereigns. Nothing henceforth in Europe will have any permanency, but that which is just and honourable. It is by good principles only that war can be made successfully against the pas sions, and the life of Bonaparte proyes clearly that the most formidable physical force finishes always sooner or later by yielding to moral force. " The Sovereigns will therefore be faithful to their declarations ; they will be so because it is their in terest as well as their honour. They have conquered Bonaparte—it remains to them to punish his adhe rents. . ga At present we shall take up one question only ; namely, that of the War Taxes, and it will be easy to apply the principle that Kings ought, by reconci ling their interests with their honour, to prove to ho- nourable men of all countries,:that they mean to keep their promises, and make war against Bonaparte cnly and his adherents. There is not a man in France who is not disposed to pay a war tag. if the Allied Government make demands; but if it be just that France should support a part of the espences incurred' for securing her deliverance, is it not just, nay rigidly just. at the same time that the weight should chiefly fall on such Frenchmen as have provoked or sup. ported art usurpation which has brought so many plagues on France 44 The Sovereigns, who have declared that they Made war against Bonaparte only and his adherents, ought they not to endeavour to prove to Europe that they make a distinction between the French subjects who remained faithful to their legitimate Sovereign and their Allies, and the French who :disported Bo naparte Ought they not, both from honour and in- . terest, to be severe against the rebels; and soften to faithful Frenchmen the burdens of a war which they have suffered in common with all Europe ? This is so evident, that probably the Allied So vereigns would not hesirate to make the distinction, unless perhaps its application seemed to them to be difficult, and yet never was the line of separation-be. tween the good and the bad more clearly defined. Twelve hundred thousand individual: accepted of Bono parie's Constitution Here then we have the adherents of Bonaparte. Let the war taxes fall chiefly upon them : Europe and twelve millions of Frenchmen will apiel.iud the deed. And who are those 1,200,000 who signed the Additional Act ? In the first place, the Army, afterwards the Chambers, the Council of dente, the corrupted and corrupting Administration, the unfaithful Magistrates, and finally part of the ac. quirers of national domains. 64 The latter, by spreading false reports and dis seminating threats and defiance, were the more cul pable, b.cause there was nothing to disturb them : the Constitutional Charter, the Law, the King, every thing guaranteed their property. Such is the list in question. It should seem as if HICAViII had permit ted this Champ de and-all the documents con. 'fleeted 'with it,. that all Europe might know the ene mies of the repose of the world. These considerations are so clear that they must strike every person. “ Here, therefore, is the simplest method of at taining the object of punishing, the Rebels, by sparing as much as possible the faithful French and fries* of the peace of the world. It will be laid down at a principle, and declared by the Allied Sovereigns, that in the necessity under which they are, -of clementine from Fr a ance war contributions, to •indemnify them for the enormous charges occasioned by BONAPARTIee usurpation, they insist that every subscriber to the additional act, shall pay a contribution triple of tha t of every faithful Frenchman. 66 Thus for example (the principle being once ad mitted) in a given department, if two men pay each a thousand francs of contribution, and if the war tax is raised on the department to half the annual• impo sition, the Frenchman who has been faithful to the King will pay 500 francs and the subscriber to Boris- . parte's Constitution 1500 francs. • 48 It may be said that many public functionaries only signed Bonaparte's Constitution to preserve their placei. But is it not just then, since it pleased them to purchase their places at the expense of their own honour and the interests of the country, that they should suffer in their interests ? Is it not just that the acquirer of a national domain, whose pro perry the King has consolidated; and who has made sacrifices to support the cause of Bonaparte, should pay a larger contribution 1". • [The writer concludes , by affirming that it will be quite rity to prepare lists of the Bonapartist, in every department, preparatory to levying the contribution recommended.] htIVATE T.UTTEIt. AVIIMIT IS. a We have been encamped "ft iSiitrinsps Elysies (tier since the %th 4h* I and, tor my 'part, I now be gin to get sick of the Metropolis of France. Most of the army, too, are heartily tired of it, and have been looking for a general movement taking place, which has been much talked of lately. The Prussians, for the mos.. p.m, have already marched hence, and we hope soon to reach the destination pointed out for us to occupy in this country. Paris As in perfect tran quillity, that is to say, as far as public demonstration of party goes: as to public opinions, loyalty and af fection to the Sovereign, that is quite another thing. I believe the French care not who is King, so it be not Louie It Deride, as they ironically call hiM. 14 Paris itself has not been injured by the war. As to the few articles taken from the Louvre by order of Prince Blucher, in order to be returned to Berlin, I make no account of them. France is to all intents and purposes a conquered -nation; and I heartily wish she were made to disgorge aU the spoils the so barbaronsly script from the countries which she' subdued. That part of Frahce which our army pissed over, in its march to the capital, sustained little damage, compared with the ravages committed by the French armies, which I have myself witnessed, in Spain and Portugal. But for all this, loud com plaints have been and are daily made against the be haviour of our allies, who are most cordially hated by the Parisians. To be sure, never was such a mixture of nations and tongues met together as com pose the troops now in and about Paris. Both the Prussians and Austrians are fine-looking men, at least such as I have seen of them at Paris. The Russians are said to be even superior to both; but, with the exception of a few Cossacks, it has not been my lot to see so many of them together as would en able me to judge of them as an army. Hitherto we have had little reason to complain of a scarcity of provisions, as the markets have been pretty well sup plied." Last night we received Frankfort Papers to the Otli and Brussels to the 13th. The principal article in the. latter is the anewer of Mr. de ElociexpottP to the Ad dress of the KING of the NETHERLA NDS. It is precisely such as might have been expected. The Dutch and the Brabanters promise themselves much happiness and great prosperity under their new Constitution, and from present appearances there is every prosper: that they will not be disappointed. They have adoptel the best possible means to gain their object, by in suring equal rights to all, with the free profession of every creed ; without pretending to lay down all the details, but leaving to experience and time, under a representative Government, gradual) , to perfect its institutions. • Having the alliance of all she Great Powers, and particularly the concurrence of this country in the extension of its maritime pursuits, they may now promise thehiselves much commercial prosperity. Lord •BouNcanoge, in a letter to Lord PROM, clued April 20, 1711, says— " The last and the great sale of the British inte rest was made in the Barrier Treaty. Under the' pretence of rendering Holland safe, we have done our part to render it formidable. This is certain, we have given to the Dutch, by that infamous compact, extent of country, the only thing they wanted to enable them to be superior to us in trade." What would Lord BOLINGBROKE have said to our 'setting up a King of Belgium d Yet we do not mean to say or insinuate any thing against the expe diency of this measure in the present conjuncture. The following we have received from Switzerland: a GUILT*, Jinx 26. M Madam Letitia, the mother of Napoleon, Hortence, the Ez-Queen of Holland, and Cardinal Pesch, accompanied by Mara, Duke of Bassano, and Ex•Sccreury of State, have been here, and what is extremely remarkable, they were provided with passport s with the signatures of Ling Loeb and the Em peror Alexan der. I believe they are now gene, or at leset some of them, as they boy not lately made 'their appearance, and Most glad we shall be to be rid of arch mischievous and clanger ens vbkors. 0 The Austrians under Oen. Frinsont, 60,000 strong, arrived just in time to rescue us from our difficulties. They have pre served the best discipeoe, have fought v. idt the most determined valour, bet I doubt have suffered dreadfully in the defiles. " Our city guard consisted at 4,000 men, and with their 'a lliance we should have been able to have defended our walls 'foe about three days, which interval was sufficient to have ena bled the Swiss army to have marched to our succour. Our com munication was entirely cut off by the enemy, ez:epting on the side of the Lake." Last evening, a few minutes before six o'clock, the Plums Rkoept arrived in town from Brighton. Sir Humors Lows transacted business yesterday and on Monday at the Szeretary of State's Office. • Yesterday, about half-past three o'clock, Mr. JOHN• sort, the King's Messenger, arrived from Paris. Lord Haulm, who embarked on Saturday last at Brighton for France, took with him no less than four carriages, and a complete set of horses. Yesterday was the anniversary of BONAPARTK'S birth-day.

The story copied from the Bath paper. with the well connected fable about Bostaianet's letters being picked up it sea, is said to be a fabrication.
