Saturday, after our Paper was at press, we re ceived the Paris Papers of Tuesday, from which we pa ve such extracts as time and space would allow Last night the papers of Wednesday and Thursday arrived, and today those of Friday. We are, there fore, now in possession of intelligence ditect from Paris, to the latest possible moment. The most prominent feature: in the intelligence thu s communicated, are those which relate•to the remains the rebel army. Of BONAPARTE, since his cm barkation, they know nothing in Paris, for they give, twice over, an idle fable of his having been landed and conveyed through London incognito for his ulterior destination in Scotland. This is a specimen of the authenticity of the intelligence which • has so often misled the public through the medium of the French Journals. The conJuct of the shattered remains of the Wa eerie. Heroes, now under the command of DAVOUST and SCCIIET) is something more than questionable.— _ 111: former General is represented in one Paper to have committed acts of hostility; and to have been engaged with the Austrians since his submission to the KING. In another Journal he is said to have dis played the white flag at Orleans on the 19th. It is Almost unnecessary to say, that however we might regret the want an effusion of blood, it is a matter of complete indifference, so far as DatirOLEST is concern ed, whether these reports be true or false. His cha racter is now tolerably well known, and we trust that a proper value will be put upon the sincerity of his future professions. ' SrCIIIET, on the side of Lyons, also seems very feverish and uneasy : his address to the rabble under his command breathes any thing but humility or con trition, and will, no doubt, place him under the aut.- veillan:e of the Alba in his vicinity, if the French Government culpably leave him the means of doing farther mischief. The Journals received to-day contain intelligence I of considerable interest.--a. new Treaty has, it seems, been concluded between France and the Allied So vereigns. France preserves her territory, but is to pay an enormous contribution to the Allies for four years. The troops of the latter are, it is said, to be withdrawn forthwith, but we are *lined to doubt this assertion. Some portion 1 -fen SO*111) J France wail the contributions amp's& . *1 Sour has been arrested, according in - e - Pion& provincial Journal. The Emperor ALEXANDER has formally contra dicted, in the Museiteur, a report that he bad received the visits of B9NAPARTE'E Mother, and some others of that honourable family. PARIS, JULY to. • FROM TUE MONITEUR. The garrison of the tows of Soissons has hoisted 11:c white flag and submitted to the King. It is stated in the ifith Number of the Journal called L'lndefiendarse, and in several other journals, that " Madame the Duchess de St. Leu has made :::veral visits to his Majesty the Emperor Alexander;" .:nd also " that the mother of Napoleon Bonaparte has been received by this monarch." This assertion Ung entirely false, we are authorized to contradict ir. His Majesty the Emperor Alexander has not ho noured with an interview any of the persons men tioned in the papers in question. CoVRIER EXTRAORDINARY OF FRIDAY MORNING. • " The portfolio of Bonaparte has been brought to Paris: it is in the possession of the Allied Sovereigns. M We aro assured that the Army of the Loire has passed that river at Come, to proceed to Burgundy, and that it has been attacked by the Austrians. " Thc King received yesterday a Deputation of. :he Municipal Council of Soissons. The garrison of this - town !ioi4ed the white Rag, and'gave its sub- ; omission to the King the 17th July. N We are assured that M. de la Valette, Ex.Ad niinistrator of the Post Office, was arrested yesterday ►n his hotel. 44 Accounts from London inform us that Bona. parte has arrived at his destination, Fort St. George, north.of Edinburgh. " When he went on board the Bellerophon he Nought that he would receive * the honours due to kis former rank. The Captain made him go into an Officer's cabin, and placed two centinels at the'door. On entering soon alter they found him in tears. " Cardinal Fesch set out yesterday morning, •ac companied by several Dragoons of the Allied troops. " They write from Orleans, bearing date the lath July:—' The head.quarteve of the French • army is still near Olivet. " The Prince D'Eckmuhl caused yesterday even. ing the white Sag to be hoisted on the barrier in the middle of the bridAe. to the sound of military music." The E f tsweror of Russia bad yesterday a private conference with the King, which lasted neatly an hour. • We are assured that 'already the priniipal condi- ~zy bons of the Treaty which is to teene pose to ?race ' have been Agreed upon France will be maintained in its territorial integrity, and will pay for the ex penses of year a contribution in four years, and the Allied troops will begin to depart from the French territories on the 25th of August, with the exception Of some which will prolong their stay during the lime which shall be deemed necessary for the mainte nance and establishment of the public tranquillity. M. Deseze gas resumed his functions, and already presides over la Cour de Cassation. The Prefect of the Department of the Loire has arrived at Paris. It is thought that he has come to solicit some abatement in the demands of contribu. tionsmade by the Prussians, both itr the town of Or leans and his department. The Royal Prussian guard is expected to-morrow. The French troops which passed over to the other, side of the Loire had begun to undermine the bridge of Orleans. On the 18th they hoisted the white flag at the extremity of the bridge, and their operations of mining ceased. M. de la Valette, the claimant Director of the Post, was arrested the day beforeyesterday, and conducted to the Prefecture of the Police. A great number of agents, couriers, and factors of the Administration of the Post, are now destitute. They write from Orleans, that a party of Prussian troops, which had been quartered on that town, is going to cross the Loire, and proceed on the side of Tours and Names. It is not known if this move. ment is occasioned-by what the French army on the other side of the Loire may do, or if only by chang. ing its quarters to make this army subsist more easily. The Cent•Suisses of the King's household have taken possession of the hotel which they occupied be. fore the 20th March, at la Pl.sce du Carrousel. News from England do not state a single word of Bonaparte ; though this may at first seem sin)4u. far, it cart nevertheless be thus explained. All the allied forces made war on this enemy of nations, and all were, animated with the desire of taking him. It was easy to foresee that he could not escape from them, and that sooner or later . he must fall into thcir hands, there to regulate among themselves the man ner of his disposal. Chance directed his surrender to the English, but the prize is common to all. Thus it is said that each power named a commission to surrender him on board the Bellerophon, and to an swer to the respective Sovereigns for the person of Bonaparte. The Bellerophon did not immediately set sail for England—this vessel' waits perhaps for di. sections from the Commissaries. Many people think that Bonaparte will be conducted to the Tower .of. London, and there judged solemnly to give a great example to the human race. As soon as an august personage heard that Bona- parte was taken by the English vessel the Bellerophon, he commtmicated the important news to a Prince of his family in the following terms: if The fable is now realized—the Chimera is 'now in the power d i BeilerophoN, and this time will not escape him." (The Chimera was a horrible monster, vomiting flames of fire). A General, who not content with having betrayed his King, disdaining his oaths, follows with fury the .pursuit of a Prince of his rank, bas dared to implore two favours lions a powerful Sovereign. He intreated him to become his intercessor with the King, or to permit Lim to Sc; se in his troops. The Monerch,replied, 46 I cannot ask a pardon for yon from the King of France, because your offences are of that nature that he cannot grant it to you. Nor can I admit you into my army ; it is composed of loyal and incor ruptible warriors : what rank would you hold I" . According to report, affairs are still in the same condition to the submission of the castle of Vincennes, the white flag is hoisted there ; several foreign troops are scattered about the environs : one cannot say whether it. is besteged oV blockaded. The state of affairs where one is on this side can neither be called war nor•peace. One does not know what it is. • • A private letter from Mons, bearing date the 14th of this montb, contains the following details : 4 , We just terminate the burial of dead bodies (for the first time these four days) with which the field of battle of Mont St. Jean was covered. Several thou. wind waggons have been•used in the department of lemmeres for this operation. About the 10th, 12th and 15th, a great number of wounded men were found, surrounded by dead, bodies, who, either trim hunger or rage, had gnawed some dead bodies of horses and men." PARIS, JULY Si, Yesterday several grenadiers of the National Guards of the 3d and 601 Legions, presented to the King twenty-four grenadiers of the Old Guard, who presented an address full of contrition for having joined the cause of Bonaparte. The King received them graciously. Yesterday his Excellency the War Minister re ceived a very great namber of Officers of the French Army, among whom were several Officers who had accompanied Bonaparte from Elba to Paris. Marshal Soult has been arrested at Mende, by the National Guards, whb lodged him in the prefecture, where he waits the orders of Government. The Pre fect and'Commandant of this Department have been also arrested, and imprisoned in the steeple of the . Cathedral.

It 'is particularly in Franche Compte, Lorraine, and the Departments of the North, that these sox-disant soldiers commit the greatest vexations, and frequently even odious crimes. We learn from Bourdeauz that the Governor-Gene ral has stopped the Paris Journals, and that he has only circulated two or three. An English flcitfwith troops on board, is announced as below in the Gi ronde. The Governor (Clauzel) seems resolved to give battle, and, it he loses, to shut I:iniself up in the uattle of Trompette, which is bristled with caution, and there to defend himself. A contribution of 500,000 francs has been imposed ors Orleans for harbouring the rebel army. The greatest tranquillity reigns at Grenoble, whi'cli is occupied by 4,000 Austrians and Piedmontaise. We are assured that the . Army of the Loire has re-passed that river at Come to proceed to Burgundy, and that k has been attacked and driven back by the Austrians. The review of the British army by the Allied So ♦ereigns has been put off to Sunday. This morning General Hill reviewed his division in the Bois tie Boulogne. The review attracted a great crowd of spectators. The head•quarters of the Russian army are at Gros Bois. Madame Hortense, the wife of Louis Bonaparte, and Madame Souza, have received orders to quit France. Prince Canino (Lucien Bonaparte) has been ar. tested at Burgoin, between Lyons and Grenoble, and conducted to Turin. THE FINE ARTS. We have never ceased to recommend to the Allies an act of justice which many of them owe to their own subjects ; and all of them to the great family of Europe, whether their individual subjects have a personal interest in the restitution or not—we mean the removal of what the French, even after the Al lies had once conquered their capital, had "the impu dence to call" the trophies of their glut ions victories." It gives us great satisfaction to be now enabled to announce tf il rit this duty has begun to be per formed. By the Flanders Mail of this morning we have received a copy of a dispatch (ruin Paris, by Mr. PEAUTAA the Commissioner.Geami of t h e Prussian Gowninent, in which Mr. PS:tur.+2 states, that he had required from M. DarroN, the Director of the French Museum, the restoration of all the dif ferent works of art carried away from any cf the cities or, territories which now belong to the King of PRUSSIA ; and that in consequence he was occupied in emptying the Museum of all such goods. The 'celebrated Picture by RUBENS, of the Crucifixion of Peter, will immediately, in consequence, be sent bac': to Cologne, and put up iR its former situation. This is as it should be, so far as it goes, but we have farther to press upon the Allies, the duty which they owe to the entire family of Europe. Many of the smaller states, alas, had been so impoverished and reduced, by the robberies and requisitions of the French that means were not left to them to send armed, men to Paris with the armies of the greater Powers ; but their wishes were cordialli with them, and as far as they /were able, they rendered assistance. In Italy, in particular, did not the loyalty of the people, and their of for their former Sovereigns, prove' useful auxiliaries in the overthrow of MURAT'S Go vernment? Their interests, indeed those of every state—nay of every private individual, should be at tended to by the generous, benevolent, and just Mo narchs whe now reside in Paris. There is no difficulty in the business. It may impossible, in the first instance, to transfer every article directly into the hands of its rightful owner ; but there is. no difficulty in ascertaining which of them have been stolen, or extorted as the price of cessation from farther injuries on the part of unprincipled in vaders and thieves; for M..llasux knows every article—can tell - you when and whence it was taken—nay, can name the library and the vc; y shelf whence each book arid manuscript was removed ! Let therefore such rarities and monuments of art as 'cannot. immediately be pot into the hands of their rightfulownert be, in the mean time, removed to some plike of safety out of France-1 , 1 them be put at least' into honest hands, and so far removed from their pre sent place of deposit that no predatory bands from France may ever again be able to pay them a visit-- ' for if they can they will, as soon as they may ima gine they have the power.—They should be all re moved either to Petersburgh or Loudon. The Flemish Papers, as might be expected, are filled with exultations and accounts of rejoicings for the surrender Of BONAPARTE to his Majesty's ship BELLEROPHON. The intelligence was announced at the Theatre% the bells were set a ringing, and every one was happy. Of some of the particulars which thq state they could however • know nothing with certainty, u that on board the frigates in which he expected to have escaped there had been found above a million in gold, bank -notes, jewels, kc. and the flan for a raw coulsiracy I These Papers state, that Bauchain has surrendered to the Allied Troops t that Conde still resists, and that Valeocienpes has hoisted the white flag, but re. fuses to surtendar to the Allies.
