COmsuc, there was a confiderable degree of buille, and every one anzioufly expedted that the arrival oldie Meffenger would be announced by the firing of cannon or a Gazette. As we Rated, in part of our impreffion, he reached town about four in the afternoon, ihortly after which we received Paris Journals to the 6th inclufive, of which we gave fuels . thort cirradts as the time would allow. Though the Manger brought the welcome news of the Preliminaries being ratified, he did not bring the Deed of Ratification itklf. This is at tributed to en old ufage, which, it kerns, is not to be departed from on the prtfent occafion. , Ra tifications from the Court of France are generally fo fplendidly embellithed that another day or two might pals before the artifts employed could fulifil the copy. It gives - us much fatisfaaion, however, to be now able to announce the welcome intelligence of the Official Ratification having arrived this morn mB The bearer of the Difpatches, Citizen LAU. enrol, (a defcendant, we believe, of the famous Law de LAORISTOR, the Financier), Aide-de- Camp to the Flaw Cowsui., reached Dover yef. terday evening, and loft no time in proceeding for Town, which he reached this morning at half paft ten o'clock. Of courfe the Public may foon erped an Official.Commmunication by a Gazette or Let ter to the LORD MAYOR. In the mean time we Ihall lay before Our Readers, chiefly from the Paris Pa pers, an account of the welcome reception given to the intelligence when it reached Paris, and a copy of the Preliminaries accurately tranflated from the Manitnar. The Meffenger, with the Preliminary Treaty, reached tiigrat of the Fiasr Coast's., at Malawi fou, at four o'clotkim Saturday afternoon. The intelligence was immediately communicated, te ligraphically, to the feveral departments. A gene -ral difcharge of cannon took place In every direc tion. The fignal of univerfal joy was promptly given ; the people eledrified at the happy tidings, knew no moderation in the expreflions of their hap pinefs, and the dcmonftrations of their joy. A ge. ' neral illumination took place ; and the Theatres were crouded with anxious ',ikon, where the news was received with the mon enthufiaftic raptures. At the fame time, a numerous proceffion of the Com mittouersof the Police, accompaniedby military de tachroents of horfe and foot, with drums and trum pets, paffed through the fermi (beets and fquares prod:aiming, by torch light, the happy event. On Monday the Ratification took place; on which oc cafion the Curer Corsoa was waited upon by the Confcrvative Senate,the Tribunate, the Legiflative 'Body, and all the other Conftituted Authorities, who congratulated Lim in the warmeft terms. The public conditions of the Preliminary Trea ty arc, in all effential points, the fameas we have announced. There is no mention of a Commercial Treaty, but that of courfe muff be in contempLx. non. Neither is there any mention of Continental affairs, of the fate of Hanover, &c. The time al lnwed for the ratification of Preliminaries is fifteen cloys at the fartheft. All captures in the Channel and Nora, boas within twelve days after tic ex change of the Preliminaries, are to be refii4ed.--- Prom the Charnel and the North Seas to the Ca 'wigs, whether ir.tae Ocean nr the Mcditet r.inean, the term is a InCr.th two months horn Ca• - n s aries to the rqoater, and five !Booths generally in all other parts of the Glebe. The places ceded are to be evacuated in a month for Europe; America and Africa three months; and Afia fix. Thus it is,not true that our troops are to remain a twelvemonth in Egypt. Three years are given for the fettlers in the ILLlnds ceded to remove if they think fit. As we Rated fome day, ago, there is to be a Congref. at Amiens for the final adjuilment of the Definitive Treaty. It is a curious fad that the French Funds which had been at 54, on the arrival of the news of peace, fell to 52f. This can only be attributed to fome Rock jobbing manceuvre, which, however, could not be long maintained : indeed, we find by the Journals of the 7th, which we received by the velfel that brought over Citizen LAULISTON, and from which we Wall alfo fubjoin lonic interefting eztraas, that they foon role again. On the 6th, they left• off at S4#• &lei PARIS, OCTOBER 4. Yeller(lay at feven in the evening the fignal was given for general rejoicing by the firing of cannon. at the fame infiant from the Quay of the Thuille ries, and the efplanade of the Heed National du be vafidee. The Citizens having fu,Wenly flopped in the fireets, and interrogated each other with re gard to the event which the Government thus an nounced, went in a body to the theatres, conclud ing that the news would, no doubt, be there no tified officially. They were right in their conjec tures. At all the theatres a note from the Mini- Iker of the Interior, announcing the fignature of Preliminaries of Peace with England had been read. and repeated in the midi of the loudell ac clamations. Never did a more lively enthufiafm appear than at the Came& Frarifoife, the Titorav de Picard, and at that of Vaadeodk. At the latter wit is accufkomed to find an appropriate ezpreffion for fentiment. and on this occafion a copy of ez , tempore vt.rfes was received with the moll marked approbation. When the play was over, the Citi zens found the fronts of the theatres, of the public offices, and of a great many private bottles, illu minated as on the recurrence of our great national 'cairn's. The_ inhabitants of the diaries in the ueighbourhood of the Theatres and the Palace of Government &trembled in the public walks. At this moment a numerous train compofed of the Commilraries of the Police of Paris, efcorted by detachments of light infantry and dragoons, pre ceded by drums and trumpets, and furrounded on all fides by innumerable crowds of citizens, tra verfe.l the principal areas and fquares, proclaim ing in the raid& of torches the news of the figna ture of Preliminaries. The windows were all fill- ed with fpeetators, the pafiages were blocked up, and the (beets inundated with the crowd prefUng forward to hear the M4giftrate charged with the Proclamation, and to esprefs their joy by aecla• mations. At every halt of the proceffion tlioufands of voices exclaimed Lang five the Repsalic—Lang Joe BOP/ATARI'S. The news reached Malmaifon at four in the af ternoon. The ftritieft orders were immediately given that it fhould be announced at Paris by dill charges of artillery, and that, by means of the Te legraph, it might be tranfmitted with the utmoft pdthble rapidity to every part of the Republic. OCTOBIIIt 5. The riIST CONUIL, on his arrival this day from Malinaifon, found all the primary authorities ready to congratulate him on the happy event of the I:going of the Preliminaries of Peace with England. The Preident of the Confervative Senate, Cid. zen Lassie usa,expreffed in an appropriate fpeech the fentiments of the Senate. The FIRST CONS uL, in his reply, anfwered, that the intelligence of an event calculated to have fo mighty an influence on the happinefi of France, had a jolt claim to give birth to joy in the Members of the Senate, who had ever {hewn thetrittives the protectors of the principles of liberty and focial order.—Citizen AL oot! r, Prelident of the Tribunate, attended by all the Members now in Paris, delivered himfelf in the following tants: a Citizen Conful—The Members sif the Tribu nate b.aften to unite with the public joy, and to prefent to you their congratulations on the happy fignature of Preliminaries of peace with England. They only anticipate the acclamations and bleflings of the French people for this ineftimable benefit. effthed by an illuftrious warrior, and accomplifh ed by the firm Magiftrates, who have proved them felves the pacificators of Europe." The Fill's- Com s ux replied, that the French peo ple who had begun to tafte the joys of domeftic tranquillity, were not lefs in want of external peace. He added, that with pleafure he recognized, in the good choice of the majority of the Tribunate in the elettion of their Prefident, the fentiments of at tachment to the Government by which the whole body were animated. A great number of the Members of the Legifla- tive body having afrembled, Citizen Gas term, the Prefident, addreffed the Flan. Comsui. in their name, and (poke in the following manner : " Fiat Coufql—The Mcrabers of the Legiflative Body, who have at this tittle *tremble& delay not a moment to unite the expreffion of their fatisfaaiou and gratitude to the congratulations of the Tribunate and the Senate ; to the emotions of public joy which are difplayed in all parts of this great city, and which will immediately be diffufed over the whole of France, on the happy intelligence of a general Peace. Behold, thus glorioui3y te Rated, this terrible conteft, in which one nation has triumphed over the efforts of many powers combined for the deftruCtion of its liberty, and whole wonderful events will illu fixate moft arik ing pages of hiffory. Ycs, Citizen Conful, fo many fplendid events, fo many traits of genuine heroifm, and of futilime devotion to the caufe of patriotifm in all its forms, regifteled in the records of immor tality, will form the wonder of future ages, as they have excited the admiration of the prefent race of men. While they do this, they will at the fame time confer an appearance of truth on all the mi raculous circumftances which hiftory recounts of the heroic ages. What praifes ! what ezpreffions of gratitude can fufficiently ezprefs our fenfe of the merits of thofe brave armies who have conquered Peace by fuch prodigies ; and above all to that Genius who has fo often led them to ♦iaory, and who has conftantly prepared and direaed their fuc eels. The title of one who has triumphed over na tions, is, without doubt, fplendid and glorious, but how much more fplendid and pure is the title of him who has given Peace to the world ! The firit for ever recall to view, all thofe painful cir cumllances which calls forth the groans of huma nity. The fecond prefents only ideas of profperity and happinefs. In preparing by viaory, and by affuring general pacification, Citizen Conful, you hi;te done enough it is true, for celebrity ; but we may declare, with boldnefs, you have not yet done enough for the true glory and felicity of France. Warlike exploits have rendered her the molt power ful, the moft confiderable nation of the Uni verfe— !he muff become, by your cares, the molt flourifh ing and the otoft happy !" In the =Aver of the FIRST Cow s ut, thefe words were remarkable : a The (Lability of focial orga nization principally contributed to the refloration of Peace." The Members of the Tribunal of Cairation being introduced, Citizen MARAIIIt, Prefident, pro nounced the following fpeech : a Filer CONSUL—When, at your call, every hope is reanimated, and by the afcendant which a Government, firm, kilt, acid generous, gains over its enemies, every hope is realized when peace, the °Ned of every with, is the fruit of your wif. dm; when, I fay, maritime bletruigs arc about to be added to thole of Ccintinental peace, the prefage to France of the return of her profperity and fplen. dour, as weU as the accomplilhmcnt of her high dellinies, this is a hostage well due, which every heart which is alive to the true feelings of French men, will hailen to pay you.

Citizen Belida', Prefident of the 'Council of Maritime Prizes, (poke in thefe terms :- 44 CITIZam Comsy --In the min of the public joy, the Council of Maritime Prizes approach to join theii congratulations to thofe of the principal Fundionaries of State.

The Prefea of the Department, the Secretar# General, the Council of the Prefecture, the Coun cil General of the Department, the Sub-Prefects of the diltria of Franciade and Senn:, the May. on and Adjuncts of Paris,, the council General and the Adminiarative Commialon of Hofpitals, t h e commentaries of Contributions, having met to the number of a hundred, at the hotel of the Pre. feaure of the Department, fet out on foot at one o'clock, to the Palace of the Oovernment.

The Preliminaries of Peace with Eng. land have been figned, and the joy excited by this news was the more lively in proportion to its being more unexpected ; in proportion as the Go. vernment of Englandhad accullomed Europe lefs to hope from it a return to pacific views. Thus the Government, ever uniting Bane to wifdom, has been able to infpire at once terror of our arms, aq4 ambition for our alliance. Thus two nations, formed to eficem each other, will arociate their sans with their activity, and sib«. midge. Cu sou foie the pork!, which have diftipguithed the pro grefs of a difaltrous copteit. General Conful, the Peace of the World is your Work. Who before you was truly anxious for its reftoration ? Who had dared to hope for it ? You alone, General Conful, you alone embracing the true interest of all ratings, thought that the obaacles which op. pored their happinefs could be overcome.

To ar rive at this augull and brilliant relish, the valour and conflaney which the French people difplayed in the great contefl, which is finished, were not Cufficient. There was need of firm and vigorous rcfolutions, which arrive without agitation at their end, and command even Fortune itself.
