fitBNCIP PAPERS OP MOkiLti 'LAST. RZCZIVED THIS MORNING. PARIS, APRIL S. The Emperor yesterday, after mass, reeeiiihd the Institute, and convened a long time with several of the Members. COURIER EXTRAORDINARY, MONDAY MORNING. There has been a Council of Ministers, at whikb Emperor presided. We a re Assured that the Emperor yesterday at his Levee a nnounced that he had received the nioit sa :isfactory news from Vienna: Fria ce Joseph and Princess Julie, th e . P r i nce i r i s ,1 1 6 r dxighters, and Princess Hortense, dined yester day nit!) the Emperor. The Duchess of Angouleme was still at Bourdeaus 3 n the. 26th. MI the roads which lead to Paris are covered with lfficers of every description, who are desirous of being placed on active service. An English ship of war is crtlizing before the port of Calais ; but the merchant vessels enter and depart from that port without any kind of interruption. In other respects, there is good reason to think, hi conse quence of the reports of persons who arrive from London, that the Peace will not be broken. The Duke de la Tremouille was arrested on the soth ult. and conducted by gendarmes to Chateau. _ _ We learn from Ostend, that numbers of English troops continue to land there. The Imperial Guard gave a banquet yesterday to the Nati-mil Guird ‘ of Paris. It was served nut in the Chomp de Mart. All the National Guards, de stgnated by their respective legions, repaired thither in grand order. The most lively gaiety prevailed at this fete, given by our brave soldiers to the citizens of Paris. During the banquet, which Listed two fours } the air frequently rung With cries of live PEmitereur! The officers of the different corps after ..v; rcls assembled, and returned with military music, vhi!e the bust of the Emperor was borne in the midst of tram. They afterwards presented themselves at the gate of the Thuilleries, near the Pont Royal.— ; The gates had been shut, but they were immediately opened, and an immense crowd rushed in, along with the ofliters. At this moment the Emptror appeared It one of the windows of the Palace, and then the cries of Vive AW,o/eoe! were repeated several times. BOURDEAUX, MARCH 27. M. Laine arrived in this city a few days since. He -.vaited upon the Duchess of Angoulenie, and ap prised her of the enttante of the Emperor into Paris. Immediately after, five men of the cavalry of the National Guard passed the Garonne, and advanced to the banks of the Dordogne, to Intercept the cou tiers, diligence:, and carriage:, coming front Paris. It siai in this situation of things a courier, named' Menaid, arrived with Proclamations of the Emperor. He was arrested, and put into prison: On the 24th some panics, but not numerous, traversed the coffee houses, dying Vive le Roi the plan of the Royalists had been to disarm the two regiments which are at Bourdeaut, the Bth light infantry, and the 6th of the line ; but these troops :bested themselves devoted to the Emperor,' and they dare not act against them. A few parti zans endeavoured Warm themselves, fearing that the' rising of the people will not draw with it that of the Soldiers. The Duchess of Angouleme required the Theatres to be shut during Holy Week. She has received the two regiments, and Shed tears when the brave men who compose theme corps refused, in her presence, to cry Vivo k Roi ! _ _ On the 26th a fermentation has begun to in rnifest itself, and is directed against the Royalist party.— Thete is a report that General Clauzel will arrive to take the command of the city, in the nanie of the. Emperor. All persons of any influence allow, except a few individuals, at the bead of whom are M. Lalne and the Mayor, that the whole population would declare itself in an instant, if they were not afraid from some perfidious suggestion, the Emperor would revenge upon the whole city, for the treason commit. ted in 1814 by a small number of persons. All the reAsants in the vicinity of Dourdeaux have hoisted the tri-coloured . cockade. ,LYONS, MARCH 2.5. _ - . They still speak rif the march of the Marsellais, but sensible pepple feel no alarms. Boatmen who dcscend the Rhone, say that volun teers ate seen on all sides returning home. The grea ter part are armed with fowling-pieces ; others have only pikes ; the gtetter number b:tve only sabres.— They are commanded by some Noblemen of the vi cinity of Nismes. Not mote than 500 men came from Lyons, all of the lowest of the people, and who receive :10 sous a day. We learn that their funds begin to fail; that the commanders are not, ilitary item ; and that they are only able to retain some men under arms by concealing from them what is passing in the rest of France. We learn, that at Moulins the people forced the Prelect himself to read the Emperor's Proclamation Several ilanbers of the Authorities of Moulins. Roane., and Saint-Martin, have been pointed out as having given currency to the false reports against the Emperor. BRUSSELS, MARCR 49. No packets nsr letters are any longer permitted to pass by the way of tensed% Liege, and Mons. All travellers undergo a stria eiaminition in these and other towns u to the =nivel' of their journey, and their letters are opened, Thit kind of inquisitiod has, excited the greatest discontent. Engineers and sick*. men are employed day and night on the redoubts-- Palisadoes and chevaux-de-fria have been laid down, and the trenches have been filled with water. Reports are every day spread Of the death of the EnsPeior t and of the risings of the Royalists at Paris. Mann 28-A considerable corps of Prussian troops belonging to the army commanded by Gen. Kleist, is arrived at Namur. They are principally cavalry, and are on their march to the environs of Gavet and Philipville. We expect almost every day the arrival in this city of the first regiment of the death's heads black Pnistian hussars. CALMS, MARCH 29. A traveller, who arrived by the diligence, and coming from London, says, that at the time of his departure ftcm London, the return of the Emperor was known in the Taverns only : the English nation, he says, has the air of being perfectly satisfied with this change of Government, and manifest almost an enthusiasm for Napoleon. MARCII SO.—The packets continue to arrive and depart as usual ; and Englishmen arrive from time to time. A considerable number of Gardes de Corps have proceeded to Abbeville. As soon as they arrive their horses are taken from them, ani they are dis armed. LILLE, MARCH 30. This city is tranquil as well as those ad ! ninlng. The spirit here is excellent. The opposite party has not hewn themselves in any way. The conduct of the old Government is the subject of general censure. The Noblesse have united all ranks against them, and the name of the Emperor is pronounced with more or less enthusiasm. The foreign troops are not making any movement. MUHLHAUSEN, MARC!! 27. All is trinquil here, and every person is animate& with the best spirit in Upper Alsace. The Austrians make no chew of moving ; their forts are not more numerous. No person here thinks there will be any aggression either on the part of France or Germany. BRUSSELS PA PERS. VIENNA, MARCH 21; Prince Augustus of Prussia departed the day before yesterday, to go to Berlin: r Prince Schwartzenbetg is to set off this week fur Italy ; his equipag,l are already set our.. The forces under his command will consist of 180,000 Austrians, 20,000 of the troops of the King of Sardinia, 1,0,000 Englisha commanded .by Lord Bentintk, and an .auxiliary army of Neapolitan troops, consisting of 30 or 40,000 men. With such considerable forces, led by able Generals, dud seconded by the ntfrnerous par tizans of the Bourbons in the South of Rance, the most brilliant success may be expected. Immediately after the declaration of the Powers , the most vigorous tnilitary measures have been pro secuted. Three great armies march against France ; one on the North, one-on the South, and the third in Italy. The first, commanded by the Duke of Wel lington, will be strengthened by 40,000 Prussians, as auxiliaries. A Prussian army of the Middle Rhine will assemble if necessary, at Mentz, under Prince Blucher. The Austro-Bavarian army, under Princes Schwartzenbetg and Wrede, will unite upon the Upper Rhine. The army of Italy w ill be com manded by the Archduke Charles. In a very short time there will be in all 93U,000 on die froinicrs of France. Between this and the Ist of April the Russian army will have passed the Oder, and on the 10th it will be at Mope. The Emperor Alexander has even sent fist his Guards, since in every case it . will probably be necessary for sevetal years to keep a watchful eye upon France. The Duke of Wellington is still here: he will de part, it is :midi on the 231 Prince Schwarttenberg and Prince Wrede are expected to leave us shortly. Count Poppenheim, whdse brigade is at Deux Ponts, departed yesterday. The departure of such important persons as the Duke of Wellington, Prince Wrede, &c. makes us conjecture that the Congress will be adjourned. But, within three or four days there will certainly be published a document of the highest importance concerning the essential points of the Constitution of Germany, and of the army. The veil which has hitherto covered the operations of the Congress, will probably be raised by Easter. It is by a formal act that the Archdnehen Maria Louisa has renounced the title of Empress. On the 18th this Princess appeared at-the Burg, and was wel. corned by the reiterated acclamations of the public. Her domestics were clot h ed,. for the first time, in the lifer/ of the Princes of the Imperial Family, instead of the green livery which they formerly wore. All the French in her service have been dismissed. The young Prince of Parma is now in the palace in this capital. The news of the progress of Bonaparte alarms peoples' minds as much as it astonishes them. The conduct of the inhabitants of the South of France cannot be explained, except by the fear which a mi. litary despotism inspires. The last dispatches have caused all the metserit to be accelerated for this ow !Moms Onside iikainst the min who hal sworn eternal war e.gainst ill nations. The Connie; sent b 7 M. Talleyrand to raris; math the Declaration of the Congress, was stopped on the conines of the .Empire, and all his papers seised; except the dispatch. . The deliberations , respecting the affairs of trance occupied but one conference—not a single voice visas raised against the energetic measures proposed. dtigifr, MARCH Si. Monsieur, the King's brother, lett us this motning to go to Brussels. Bonaparte hal caused the Duke of Treviso to be arrested at Lille:, We hear that the carriages of the Duke of Berri, which were abandoned in the bad roads, have been sand by the peasants and brought to his Royal Highness.

Ss. pretn.--Eachequer Bills par to 2s. pretu. We have this day received the Paris Papers of the 3d instant. Their contents absolutely defy analysis. They are filled with mere idle gossip; reports of pas sengers from England ; rumours from the Depart ptents the roads covered with officers crowding to Parii to seek employment, &c. ; and great pains are taken to persuade the Parisians that the Allies are making no hostile movements on the frontiers !—•• BONAPARTE is said to have announced at the Levee, that the news from Vienna was favour.tble ! These JOutnals, howeifer, announce the departure of the Emperors ALEXANDER and FRANCIS, from Vienna for Frankfort; which, in whatever light BONAPAhTE may he inclined to view it, we consider as being indicatiie of their intention to be present with the armies. According to these papers the people in the South are only prevented from manifesting their attachment to BONAPARTE by the presence of a few 44 anarchists and adherents of the BOURBONS ;" and only wait for the presence of a part of the regular force to enable them to manifest their true sentiments ! This is said to have been the case at Bourdeaux on the 27th ult. ' By a Gentleman who left Bourdeaux on the even ing of the 29th ult. we understand that that city was still in possession of the friends of the BOURBONS.— The white flag was flying in Bourdeaux, as well as in the fnrt of l3laye, a short way down the Garonne. The Duchess of Angouleme was in the Palace of Bourdeaux ; but a British frigate (we believe the WANDERER) remained in the River to bring her liip,ltness away in case it shcold be necessary. The people of •Bourdeaux had been hitherto per fectly tranquil, but they were much divided in opi nion. The soldiers of the two regiments of the line which garrisoned Bourdeaux, and whose numbers amounted to two thousand, were to a man in favour Of DONA PA ItTE: On Sunday se'ntiight the troops of the line, and the National Guards, were reviewed by the General of the District, and the Duchess of ANGOULLME was present. Previo►►s to the review, the troops of the line, conceiving that they were to be disarmed by the Rational Guards, refused to turn out of their Bar racks until they were furnished with four rounds cf ball cartridge, with . which they were immediately supplied, sine the review proceeded. They would not receive the General's word of honour that no such measure as that of disarming them was in con- templation. We hare received a letter from Paris, cldted the 3d inst. which states that BONAPARTS is completely shut up in Paris; that thete is no appearance of war• like preparations; and that every post from the De partments brings accounts of fresh insurrections in favour of the BOURBONS. The prevailing opinion in Paris is, that the moment the Allies appeared in France, with a sufficient force, they will experience as little difficulty in reaching the capital, as the usurper did in his return from Elba. The ERIDANUS frigate, Captain HENRY PRESCOTT, has detainid and sent into Plymouth the trench ship Amiable Etheme, Captain SODItAY, from Bour deaux, bound to Dunkirk, with wine and brandy— and it is supposed that this detention is by order of the British Government, as Captain Pamcorr only sailed from Plymouth on the 27th ult. This day we received a large supply of Brussels Papers to the 3d inclusive. From the subjoined ex tracts it will be seen that on every part of the fr.mtiers of France the greatest activity prevails in all the ar mies ; and that every thing indicates the approach of a most vigorous campaign against BONAPARTE, who it may be presumed, notwithstanding the silence of the French Journals, is equally active in pieparing for the conflict which is to decide not only whether he shall reign, but whether he shall be suffered to live. According to these Papers Marshal MORTIER (the Duke of Treviso) has been arrested at Lisle by o• der of BONAPARTE. Our Readers will recollect that this General was one of those of whose attach ment to his person and cause, BONAPARTE made a great boast soon. after he reached Paris. From the silence of the French Papers respecting the greater' part of the Marshals, we are led to infer that their Muter is displeased with them for some reason or other. The cause we take to be, what we stated in a former Sr*n—their stipulation that he should reign only by the laws of the empire. By the accounts from Vießna, it appears that there *Os diveralty of *eon among the APS resPectlig- the line Of Conditt the .here celled upon to adopt, ,ia consequence . of BONAIPARTR'S breach of the Treaty of Fontiinbleau. The Most itorous measures were instantly resolved on, and orderi sent off for the immediate advinee of the stoops of the respective Powers. Three great armies will act at once against Franke, viz. on the north, the south, and on the Ita. Tian frontier. That in the Noith will be commanded by the Duke of WituisoTote, and the Austrian Mice to the Southward by Prince Scawaarienseao. The latter will consist of 180,000 Austrians, 20,000 Sat. d'inians, 10,000 British 4 .tommanded by Lnrd Barr. Two( ), ar.d 30 or 40,000 Neapolitan The Whole force expected to be in the field against the Usurper iii iLe ecurse of a few weeks is estimated at 950,000 i and this forCe; if we rightly understand the accounts, will soon receive a stineg reinforcement of Russians, At ricearnra having ordered hit whole army, not excepting his guards, to advance against the enemy of Europe. In the mean time the Congress, resolved not to have their labours rendered abortive by the Move- Ments of the Corsican, are preparing for ptiblication the near Constitution given to Germany, which will appear in a week or two: The ArchdUchess MARIA LOUISA has formally re nounced the title of Empress. So much fur the Cor si,:an's paragraphs intended to impress the French with the idea that she was on her way to Paris ; or, in other words, that the Emperor Famicts was acting' in concert with the Usurper.; SECOND EDITION. 'HE PRINCE REGENT'S MESSAGE TO PARMA NAEN f. This afternobns soon after the Meeting of the House of Commons, Lord CASTLEREAGH appeAred in bis place and announced a Message from the PRINCE REGENT, on the subject of the Affairi of Frances of which the following is a Copy G. “ His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, acting in the name and on the behalf of his Majeaty, thinks it proper to inform the HuuSei of Parliament s that events having recently occurred in France in direct contravention of all the engagements of the various Treaties concluded at Paris in the course of last year, and which thriaten the repose and tranquillity of all Europe, his Royal Highness has judged it to be his duty to order an augmentation of his M‘jesty's forces by sea and land. •1 His Royal Highness has also to infants the House of Commons, that he has lost no time in corn. municating with the High Allied Powers on the cir• cumstances above alluded to; and he trusts that his Majesty's faithful Commons will enable Ms Royal Highness to make good such futther engagements as may be required to secure the lasting tranquillity of Europe." Lord CASTLEREAGH then moved, that the above Message be taken into the consideration of the House to-morrow. A similar Message was delivered by Lord Lrv:n• POOL in the House of Peers. Both Houses were unusually fulls ARRIVAL OF THE DUKE OF WEL. LINGTON AT BRUSSELS. At a late hour last night Mr. JOHNSON arrived from Vienna, with dispatches from our Ministers there. This morning Mr. WILLIAMS, anotLer Mrs. senger, arrived ftom the Duke of Wet.morox, direct from Brussels His Grace had arrived there, and immediately took upon him the command of the Al lied Armies assembled there. 'His Grace has already had an interview with the Duke of FILTRE and Marshals BERTHISR and NAM /40NT as to the plan of the campaign which is to be instantly commenced in France. The Dispatches from Vienna are understood to contain a repetition of the assurances of the Court of Austria to support the BOURBONS to the utmost extremity, in the expulsion of &IMPARTS and his adherents. Mr. WILLIAMS, the Messenger, travelled from Vienna to Brussels in the carriage next to that of the Duke of WFLLINOTON, and was a witness of the re peated demonstrations of joy from the inhabitants of almost every town through which his Grace passed with his suite. The Guards that embarked yesterday at Green. with were put on board seven Berwick smacks, which ar.: to convey them direct to Ostend ; vessels were earlythis morning, and from the near still continues, we may safely favourable that calculate on their reaching Ostend this evening before dusk. Tuesday night a large ship,bound to Quebec, was completely destroyed by fire off Greenwich. The ship and cargo is estimated at from 70 to £BO,OOO. PLYMOUTH, APRIL. 4.
