At a late hour last night we received Paris Papers of Saturday and Sunday, from which we have given ample extrac in the preceding columns. They pre. sent a lam-ntable picture of the versatility and depra %icy of the French character. The very people who exhausted every term of eulogy upon the Bouliaoss are now re-writing their congratulations with no otha change in the expressions than what is rendered necessary in the Address by the substitution of the name N APOLECIN for Lours ! Even the new Govern. ment, though congratulating the nation on the general expression of its unshaken loyalty and attachment to the new Dynasty, seems to be well aware of the degree of ridicule wlich attaches to such productions from such men, and therefore does not publish the text of flaw addresses I !" but contents itself with a summary of their substance. The summary itself is curious, and the intention for which it is published is obvidtis. It is fnr the pur pose of furnishing fit terms for the future addresses, by spewing them how to ring the changes upon " Cowards—betrayers of the country—shameful neg. lect of merit—humiliations—disgusts— privileged per sons—usurped titles, &c." These must be properly mixed up with " Eagles—tri-coloured cock ides— triumphs—victories—privileges—honourable recom penses—memorable actions—and national glory !" Then will the addresses be fit for the Emperor's eye, but not even then fit.for publication. The Mon;teur announces, that it is no longer to be considered as an official journal. Nothing is to be henceforth considered as officially published but what appears in the Bulletin of the Laws. The Laws re specting Printing, Bookselling, and Censorship, are repealed. We notice these points in particular, be. cause already we find their object misunderstood. Nothing, can be Luther from the intention of N APO -1 vos than to give up his controul over the Press. : — The Laws repealed are those of Lows XVIII.; and by ei‘:Cliling nothing official without the signature of a Minister or a Magistrate, he obtains the advantage rt making all other articles appear to be only edit°. 7ial, and, cons , queutly, expressive of the public sen :mcnt. Bat, as before the ca tore of Puri: by the VAPVLEON IliMSrif will be Editcr-General the Press of France, and woe to the Frenchman v,:,0 shall date to controvert his statements. It does tusk appear that at the date of these jour nals NAPoLEeN !limself had set off for Belgium ; but his preparations for such a march, and as object are sufficiently indicated. The troops advancing from the south and east are reviewed in succession as they reach Paris, and instantly marched off for tl:e Northern frontier. How happy would it be for the loyal and peace.rbly•disposed part of the inhabitants 1:f . Belgium It.,d they nothing to fear but from a : - .)reign enemy. Even such a prospect would.he la mentable, but compared with the evils which may be rrrought upon them by bad men among themselves favouring the invasion of the French, it.would be trivirl ; for a sufficient force might be•found to pro. tact their frontiers and to make the mil France the !heatre for the comest. But otherwise neighing will' become the seat of war, and the aideri and abettors of the Usurper will have the merit of bringing deso lation, fire and rapine into their own habitations. The French Papers are indignant at thePutrreaorr i l OItAEGE for taking the title of King of the Nether• lan ds•••." without waiting for the - definitive decision of the Congress of Vicnna!"—This is quite iatelb -I;ible : besides, what Potentate, exce NArvison, has any right to assume titles and sovereignty ? In this article, however, ene important truth is stated without disguises The French mean to respect , 4 no other Argument but that of force, the ultimo ratio repta."— Could any one doubt this before ? If any were so Mind, let them now sue what awaits theft' if they fan In this military species of • .~gic. A letter from Havre, dated the (2604, states, that trade continues at that port without hily interruption whatever, every thing remains perfectly tranquil, lad no further alterations in circumstances have taken place than the tricoloured flip being substi. tuted for the flour-&-lis; persons :Ire very cautious a delivering their political sentiments; but ships of all nation go in and out 61 port without any moles tation. Our Consul still continues his functions there. Letters have been received this morning from New York, dated the 24th of February, by the Junon, which state, that an immense number of vessels west prepared to quit that port for England, principally with half cargoes, as American produce was so scarce the) could not procure whole freights. She has not brought American Papers. Just as this Paper was putting to Press we received a Paris Paper of the 27th (Monday), viz. the Journal du Commerce. It is quite silent respecting milhar) movements. The following is the only article worth quoting : Marshal Mortier had reached him. We has, in fact, only learned this evening that the Princes left Lille yesterday, and that the Duke of Orleans gave this night the command to Marshal Mortier, trusting it to his prudence. A party of the King's household joined our troops ; it was that which had been taken from them : the other party, which had never served at least in our ranks, wanders about in small detach incnts of two and three men, in different directions, for the purpose of escape. CAEN, MARCH 24. The appearance of our national guard has sufficed to stifle the projects of the Duc d'Aumont, of a man Frotte, and of some chiefs of the Chouans, wished to disturb public tranquillity in our de ri.t:;:mt. They have embarked for Jersey. THE EVENING STAR. PARTS, MARCH 2G. It is said, that Marshals Augereau and Macdo nald have retired to their estates. It is also said, that the Emperor has given the mast favour able reception to the old Marshal Serrurier, in in viting him to renew their former friendship. To-morrow will be the last day of the redemption of the Omnium—W per rent. is to be paid upon it. Yesterday, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, which sat till n t half past three. After the breaking up of the Council, Mr. SILVESTEIt t the King's messenger, was ordered to hold himself ready for a foreign journey. Lord WELLESLEY is gone to East-Cliff Lodge, Rom gate, for the holidays. Yesterday Colonel TonnEws, Public Military Se cretary to the Duke of YORK, held a public day, and saw a number of Military Officers. Lord Mer.vrus had a Levee yesterday at the Ad miralty, which was very numerously attended. There were present at least ten Admirals, and about fifty Captains, besides a considerable. number of other Naval Officers. In consequence of the late ttnforeseen events on the Continent, we understand the Lords of the Trea sury have granted a further indulgence to the parties who, under the Treasury Minutes, were required to export certain Goods on the Ist of April and Ist of June next, and have directed that they may be al lowed to pay the home consumption duties thereon, on or before the 15th of May next, or export the same on or before the Ist of July next. The Earl of Bzvzitczy arrived in Town from Paris on Tuesday. A beautiful set of English carriage horses, which his Lordship had ordered to be led from Paris to Calais, were seized on the road by a Troop of Dragoons, by order of BONAPARTIti and carried to a neighbouring depot of cavalry. All the horses in France are put under requisition to convey troops and stores to Belgium. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE.—TuesdIy se'n night, a trial which excited considerable interest came on at Tralee Assizes, in which Miss MgCA RT/IV WAS plaintiff, and Captain Gnacz defendant : the damages were laid at £lo,ooo.—After a very lengthened the Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Thrre Thou:ail(' Five Hundred Pound: damages, and lull costs. Tuesday the New Musical Fund held their Anni. rersary Festival. at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, the Dula of SussEx in the Chair. 'l'he uncommon mildness of the weather yesterday. nided by the bright beams of the sun, thew forth, at the West-end of the town, innumerable groupes fa shionables, who promenaded llond-street, St. Jamt street, and the Parks, in all the gaiety of summer costume. There was a mere than usual sprinkling of French. The streets of the Metropolis have, within these few days, been crowded with foreigners, the singu larity 01 whose dress at once distinguishes them from the family of John Bull. The Typhus Fever at Cambridge has somewhat abated. It is rumoured that the next let in will not be kept, on account of the danger of exposure to it ; but we do not hear that any active measures have been taken to suppress the contagion. According to accounts, young men returning to Cambridge at pre sent, or for some time to come, would be exposed to considerable danger. A Medical Gentleman has ex pressed 'his decided opinion of the infectious naturt of the fever. By the Lady Louisa Packet, from Rio Janeiro, we have letters from thence and from Buenos Ayres ; from the former to the 26th January. At the Rivet Plate there had been no movement ; the intention of General Artigas (who had 4000 cavalry) to support the Royal Party was perfectly ascestained, and the arrival of the expedition from Cadiz was daily ex pected, and greatly dreaded. The following arc ex. tracts from the letters : " Rio YANIZIO, JAN. 19. " His Majesty's ship Duncan has appeared here, supposed with the view to carry off his Royal High ness to Europe. It is now known that the Prince wiU not go in the Duncan, and that BeiestOrd wilt, in consequence, return without delay. Orders art given for getting in readiness two Portuguese ships of the line, but they are not working at them as people in a hurry, therefore lam of opinion that the Regent does not intend to leave us ►mmediately, and that he may be desirous of seeing affairs settled in Europe before he starts." U Rzo JANZIRO, JANUARY 25. " The convoy for England bailed the 12th. Very great inconvenience is esperictscee. by the Duncan's convoy, on account of the new arrangement respect ing consulage and contributions. The merchants have refused to give the particulars of the invoices. Send no vessels to the Brazils until this business is settled. The Inconstant frigate was to sail the Bth instant, from Buenos Ayres. The specie by this op portunity will lcouer our eicl3ange, which is already reduced to 72 pence." By other letters it seems, that by the policy of Aranjo, the unpopularity of our Minister, Lord Strangford, has been increased, and that his reception at Court was yet more ungracious than before. Our advices from the Peninsula lead us to conclude that the Portuguese ships of war which are fitting out at Rio, ate to convey to Europe the two Baugh ten of the Infanta of Portugal, who have been de manded in marriage by Ferdinand and bis brother, Don Carlos of Spain. 2s/41?4L 1141ELLICBNC2.

Oa the 28th February his Ma. je,ty's ships CENTAUR, LIVFRPOOL, and PHILONEL I arrived at Santa Cruz also from a criiize in search of the American squadron, of v►hich they hail obtained some intelligence. ANIERICAN SQUADRON.—By the Speedy packet, from St. Thomas's, from whence she sailed 26th nit. we learn that the Guerriere, Independence, and Con. htittition American frigates, were cruizing to the Northeast of Barbadoes. The Corunna, DAMPOTER, from London to Gre nada, was taken on the 3d ultimo, going into Gren ville Harbour, by a brig privateer, after a running fight, and it is supposed destroyed.

Fie is the bearer of the C.immission to th- Duke of LLNGTON, appointing him Command, r in Chief of his Majesty's forces on the Continent of Europe. That g Ault and distinguished regiment, the 11th. Dragoons, under the command of Colonel Stactott, embarked yesterday for Ostend. One troop em barked at Dover in small craft, and sir troops at Ramsgate. The men were in most excellent spirits, and the horses in the highest condition This is the regiment which, in concert with the s;h and 77;11 re giments, so much distinguished itself at Eone•len, in Spain, under the command of Colonel Cusses'No. on the 25th September, 1810. These reginstaits then formed part of General Al TEN'S brigade. The whole of that Sae cai airy regiment, the 14th Dragoons, is now under orders for embArkai n.— Four troops are to arrive at Hoenslow to day. final Weymouth. The two troops which proceeded fawn Cork are already in 11,14ium. All the regiments of Dragoons are to be ang. merited ten men per troop ; and the six I. b lit refit. ments ordered to the Naherl.intis, are to have an establishment of ten troops each, as they swud pre vious to the late reduction. The 7th, 10th, and 18th Hussars are to be under Major• General Sir R. H. Vot.tN. The 11th, 12 h, and 16th Dragoons, under MhjOr•Gener3l b;l%. 0. VANDZIEUR. The whole to be commandei by the Earl of UXBRIDGE. Two troops of royal horse arellery, and six cons paws of battering artillery, have rectived ordne to hold themselves in readiness for hireign set vict ; they are exp&cted to withal It every day. One thousand horses of the royal artillery drivers are also to pro ceed forthwith. It k expected that a ntrnbcr mre . f troops, and consoanies of this much distit4,ats:lc3 corps will follow, as soon as they can be com?ltted to the war establishment. The 16th Dragoons, now quartered at Hounslow, are under orders for embarkation, and will march to the coast for that purpose, as soon as transports C4ll be got ready for their accommodation. One hundred and fifty thousand stand of arms have been ordered to be sent to Belgium. Workmen are busily employed in the Tower in packing them up. The following regiments of Infantry, now in Ame rica, are expected home immediately, viz.-Ist regi ment of font, Ist and 4th battalions; 3d, Ist batta lion ; sth, Ist battalion ; 6th, ht battalion ' Sth, Ist and . 2d battalions; 9th, I s t b a t ta li on ; 13 t h ; Kith t 27th, 3d battalion ; 29th ; 39th, lst battalion t • 41st ; 49th ; 57th, Ist battalion; 58th, Ist battalion ; 61th; 81st, 82d, and 88th, Ist battalions ; 89th, 2,1 "batta lion ; 90th, Ist battalion ; 93d, 2d battalion ; 97th ; 93th ; 100th ; 2d Garrison Battalion, five companies; and 10th Veteran Battalion, two companies. Lieutenant-Colonel ROBERT DALE., of the 9&1 regi ment, who fell at the late attack on New OlL:ails, was a most meritorious °facer. His cool and intre pid bravery was highly conspicuous on this m.lan choly occasion which terminated his earthly career, and his uniformly upright and honourable conduct justly endeared him whole living to the gallant curps which he commanded. There is so little foundation for the report of the re-embodying ot the Militia, that so recently as yes terday, orders for disembodying these Regiments which are still in active service were forwardedlrom the proper department. The report of the army being about to be intiti-as. ed by new levies, gains ground in the Military Cir cles, and it is expected that the above measure immediately disembodying the remaining Reginit nts of Militia, has been adopted with a view to tact'''. tate the recruiting of those Levica. Monday afternoon, the sth regiment returne.l to their quarters in the F fr ot Barradts, Windsor, front London, where they had been marched dunog the discussion of the Corn Bill in the House of Commons. Private letters from Bengal, received yesterday, state that Earl MoiLt had commanded an army .o take the field against the Napaul country, that the Bth Dragoons, 14th, 53d, and 67th British regi ments, under hi,jor-General WooD, were employed un this occasion. At a General Court Martial, held at Bangalore, in Madras, on the 22J March, 1814, Lieutenant WILLIAM RUZTON, of the 69th Regiment, was tried upon the following charge, viz.-44 For going out to fight a duel with Lieutenant WARLOCK, of the 69.11 Regiment, on the afternoon of the 14th of January, 1814, in direct •iolation of the Articles of War." —Upon which charge the Court found the prisoner, Lieutenant WILLIAM Ruzron, Guilty, and sentenced him to be cashiered. Which sentence was approved and confirmed by his Excellency the Earl of Governor General and Commander in Chief in In dia, but afterwards remitted, by his Lordship. Tuesday se'nhight, as four seamen, deserters from a ship of war in Leith Roads, were conducted by a party of unarmed soldiers to the quay at Montrose, in order to be put on board a cutter to carry th.m back to their vessel, a crowd of women and boys at tacked the soldiers, and ultimately succeeded in re• scuing the deserters, who got clear cff. Yesterday, a portmanteau was cut from behind the travelling-carriage of J.Monins, lisq. of Mount -street, between the turnpike at the Bricktayers' Arm', ip the Kent-road, and Marsh-gate, Lambeth. Mr. Morn is was returning from France; and the portmanteau, amongst other articles of value, contained a consi derable sum in continental gold coin. The surprising change which has so suddenly burst on the political world, buds already caused a must ex. traordmary demand for the Cornier, Star, Gl4e, 5i,,,, roaster, Pike, and Siatantall Newspapers, and such is the very important aspect of affairs, that a large increase is to be expected. In order, therefore, to facilitate the earliest information, MARTIN an 4 Co.
