Yesterday the inhabitants of Portsmouth were gra tified with a Mon interesting and novel spectacle: it was no less than the arrival of a French man of war, tot as an enemy or a prize, bat bearing the Bounnux standard and a Deputation from Cherburgh, to con pratulate Lows XVIII. on his happy restoration. The name of this ship is the PolonaisLN of 71 guns, and it it commanded by Rear-Admiral TROUETT. —On her arrival at Spithead she saluted the ship ping with 21 guhs, which was answered by our vesseli. She was accompanied to Portsmouth by the EuabrAs, whit)) took over the Duke de BERRI. The Deputation bn board, consisting of five French Gentlemen of distinction, immediately set off for London, where they arrived this day : " PORTSMOUTH. APRIL IS. 46 Witliti this half hour a French 74* called the Polon4ise, Admiral Taoutr•rr, has just arriVed * bear ing the White Flag, and having, as it is said, five Deputies on board, incltiding TALLEYRAND...—they certainly hat 4 five, but whether TALLEYRAND is there or not I cannot certify.—They are come to Lours XVIII. This ship left Cherburgh this morning at six o'clock* and has made a passage at the rate of eleven knots an hour. There are at this moment several hundreds on the platform to view the landing of the Deputies, and a salute was fired on the Admi ral's landing.—l should have mentioned that the 74 tv.is accompanied by a frigate, which has sailed on to the Downs : they were both accompanied by the EtRoTAs frigate► A private marine was so elated, that he took the Admiral in ftis arms and tatried him some distanc. Another French line of battle ship has just stow hove in sight." ANOTHER I.ETI'ER—SAME DATE. 6 i This day presented a novel and interesting sight by the arrival of the Polonaise, Rear-Admiral Tnobityr, bearing the flag of the ancient Sovereigns of France: The Polonaise Is, frofn Cherburgh, and brings over a Deputation from that city, who, with Admiral Titovevr, were landed at this port, and im mediately waited on Sir ItICIIARD j3ICKERTON. At sit oiclock,p: m. the Polonaise sailed again for Cher. burgh." the intercourse between Dover and Calais con tinues to become more frequent every day : the fol lowing is one of oto Dover Correspondent's letter of this morning : " DOVER, APRIL 15; 1814. 44 The eorimminication between this place and the bplioshe toast it beef:ming more frequent every day, aid the Weather, until this afternoon, hat been taint, to that Many boats have rbitd across the Chanhel e and a nuMbet of visitors ha4e mine over from Calais; Last etenldg the Collector of the Custbins of that Port, and two Ladies; came over in the Custom house lugger, With White Ensign and Pendant, and an English Jack flying ; and this morning the Pre fect of Boulogne, and an Officer of the National Guard there, who arrived here on Tuesday evening, embarked again, having been to pay their respects to Lows XVIII. A Gentleman with dispatches for the French Government, it just going to embark for Calais." Paris Papers of Tuesday last have been received. We noticed briefly the c'.icf part of their contents yesterday, in a second edition. To-day ample ex tracts from thetn Will be found in out• columns. Acts as adherence to the Bounao.l4 dynasty continue to be bent in from individuals of eminent rank in the army as well as from the several departments of France. The person who has been for some time known by the name (4' Cardinal MAunv, and who was always a more than zealous supporter of BONAPARTE, has been ousted from his church prefei ments.by the Chap ter of Pal is.—This is as it should be. • We have also received Moniteurt of the 13th inst. tiONAPAIITIE left Fontainbleau on that day, escorted by 1,500 Russians, and 1000 French troops. He is to embark for the Isle of Elba at St. Tropez, in Pro vence. The Paris Papers are full of descriptions of the ceremonials in the various depariments of Go vernment at the reception of Monsieur Cumte d'An- Tots in the French Capital. A most diabolical plot has been disclosed by a Cc• neral Loco-rye, which had for its object the destruc tion of the whole city of Paris. He had received orders from BONAPARTE, it would seem, to blow up all the magazines, &c. in Paris, upon the entrance of the Allies. His refusal to obey the barbarous order, obtained him a munificent present from ALEXANDER, who sent him the order of. Wlstdimir, set with dia monds. From what is already known of the charac ter of the Impostor, who is now on his way to the Island of Elba, we see no reason to doubt the perfect accuracy of General Locorre's statement. The wan ton explosion which took place at Meaux, by Bono- PARTE% order, a few weeks slime, anti the expressions m Marshal ODDINOT'S adherence, given in our co• "mos of to-day, warrant us in believing it. What disclosures does OUDINOT allude to, if not some dark and faocious designs of the falling tyr.tnt? SECONts 131T14N.: DISPATCHES FROM LORD CASTLEREAGH AND LORD WELLINGTON. Mr. W it.LtAms, the Messenger, has arrived in Downing -street, with dispatches from Lord CASTLE REACH, dated on the 14th instant. His Lordship was occupies} in making some ar rangements with the Provisional Government, which were expected to lead to a formal Declaration of all Europe heiPi now at Peace, l~;N.ar.+►c Minister-at-War.theDuke &Tam; alias General CLARKE, has sent in his adherence to the new Government. Nothing but rejoicings *eft going on in Paris when the Messenger came away. The White Cockade and the BOURBON Standard were every where displayed. Dispatches have also been received from Lord WELLINGTON, dated from the vicinity of Thoulouse in the Ist instant. His Lordship had then heard nothing of what was passing in Paris, and very providentially no movement of the Allied Armies under his command had taken place, in consequence of the heavy rains and bad state of the roads. Government are in hourly expectation of hearing of the surrender of Antwerp, and the restoration of the French fleet in the Scheldt to the legitimate So- vereign of France. A French Officer came out of Antwerp on Wed nesday afternoon, with a flag of truce, and had a conference of two hours duration with Sir THObIAS GttnitAsi, on the subject of a Capitulation. Yesterday the Duchess of OLDENBURG left the Pul teney hotel, at her usual hour, with the PRINCE RE (Arc' 's equipage, (conducted by General TURNER), and went to the house of Mr. WENT, the painter, in Newman-street, to see his new picture, which is to be called--4 , Christ rejected by the High Priest and Jewish people." From. Mr. WEST'S house her Im perial Highness proceeded to the Marquis of STAF roan% in Cleveland-row, to view the Noble Mar quis's valuable collection of paintings, &c. The il lustrious visitor was received by the Marquis and Marchioness with all due form, and was conducted by them through the grand gallery. Her Imperial Highness concluded the day by honouring Mr. AN utubTem, of Pall.mall, with a visit. * Having view ed those fine specimens of the arts possessed by this gentleman, the Royal visitor and suite partook of some refreshment previous to their departure. M. ne Perticamn, who, on Thursday, brought to Hartwell the account of MONSIEUR'S entrance into Pa ris, states the numbers assembled to have been iin mense ; and whilst thousands made the air ring with shouts of rived its Bourbons ethers, more deeply affected, greeted the Brother of their beloved Mo narch with tears of joy. MONSIEUR, whilst at Nancy, had received a lever from the Emperor of AUSTRIA, in the hand-writing of the latter, congratulating him on the then prospect of affairs. This was imme diately on the rupture of the Negotiations, down to which time the Emperor retained the idea of the pos. sible establishritent of BONAPARTE, or his son, on the French Throne ; but that idea vanished when 134iNaemite's obstinacy prompted him to reject the terms of the Allies : and the Emperor no longer re tained the stnallest inclination to support any claims adverse tc those of the House of Boutenoa. He is even desirous that his daughter shall in future be styled only the Arch-Duchess ; and so it is settled.— It is now understood ihat she is not to accompany Bo- NAPARTE ; and that he will go to Elba with no other retinue than a party of Cossacks, who will serve in place of his Mamelukes, as he was always fond of foreign horse guards. BERTRAND, arid one or two other Officers, who owed every thing to his favour, are selling, it is said, to accompany him to the place of his retreat. Some say the party has already set off; others, however, maim:tip. that he is still at Fantain bleati ; hut at all events BONAPARTE has not, and is not likely to have, too much liberty ; and beside those who am shut up with him, his visitors are few or none. GIihIINSEY, APRIL 11.--The Mary schuyt brought the cheering intelligence contained in Saturday's pa. pas, this monthly,. Immediately afterwards, our ex cellent Lieutenant Governor, Lieutenant General Sir JeuN Dent" accompanied by Assistant-Quarter- Master General Major KENNEDY, and Captain HAS. 'nos, embarked in the Mary, to convey the inflicts !ars rf their important contents to his Royal High. ness the Duke of Beant, at Jersey, the outlines having been forwarded by telegraph. A feu de joie was fired by the garrison and Island Militia, in honour of the recent auspicious events ; and the rejoicings of the hearts of all classes is demonstrated by their counte nances. Boats from the opposite coast are hourly ex pected. Orders, we understand, have been given by Go vernment for the shipment of 30,000 stand of arms from the Tower, for America. A Supplementary Volume to Miss Sserrit's Life of Ktoesrocx, we understand, will appear in a few d iys. It consists of the familiar correspondence of K Loesrotx and his FRIENDS, from the year 1751 to the period of his death, in 1803. About the same time Madame na STALL will publish Editions in French and English of her Letters on the Irriting: and Character of Rousseau. Ministers, it is said, have given the American Com missioners to understand, that they will enter into no discussions with them until the question of the hos tages has been disposed of, as they are determined it shall make no part of the negotiations for peace. What course Mr GALLanat and his colleague will pursue, in consequence of this resolution on the part of Government, we are not prepared m State. I T4l Ak w. ft is not true that any ineasOres have tleen taltefi, er any re‘dlntion adopted fret li Goverriment,. for disbanding the Militia, and reclining the second gat. talions of the line. Orders; it is said, weie sent off yesterday to Poiti tnou:h to countermand the sailing of the three provi sional battalions of militia, which arc foitimately sill detained at the Isle of Wight by eOntiary winds. We hay, also, that Gbvernment has issued orders to limit the contracts for al/ stipplles to the ithount wanted for the preseht occasions: The 2d battalion of the 93d RegiMent, which are under orders for foreign service, will arrive at Win chester on the 18th instant. .......

Two French frigates made their escape on the 10th. A heavy tiring has since been heard in the direction in which they steered, and it is supposed that they have fallen in with some of our mixers who have engaged them. The Rev. G. C. SMITII, Baptist Minister of Pen zance, embarked on Saturday se'nnight, in the Lady Arabella packet, for Passages, as a missionary for France and Spain, carrying with him Bibles and reli gious books, to distribute among the inhabitants and in the army, under the direction of a Society in London. The letters of yesterday, from Bermuda, are to the 13th ult. Admiral CtiCIIRAYE arrived there in the Ast.t, on the 7th ult. and it was expected that Sir .1. B. would return immediately. Since our previous intelligence, information of the capture of only one ship had been obtained at Bermuda, which was the Nonsuch, a large American letter of marque. Colonial produce, we are told, haal feller 25 per cent. on that island, undtr the expectation that the war would continue. and th.tt by the joint operation of the bl ekade and the embargo, the inter course with the United States would be wholly ob structed. The William, Ryan, is arrived at Limerick from Oporto, in eieht days. Orders were received there the day previous, to ship ?mak from Boordeaux, and accordingly several vessels intended to leave it on Wednesday last. The 4th and 7th divisions of Lord WELLINGTON'S army were in barracks at Bcrurdeaux, and are daily entertained with the utmost hospitality by the inhabitants. An English East-Inniaman, homeward hound, supposed to be from Btairbon, about 9(X) tons, and valuably laden, was wrecked tour leagues off Oporto, on the 17th ult. and, melancholy to add, the entire crew, upwards of SOO souls, pe rished ; several of them were washed on shore, and interred in the English burying-ground. A Portu guese Bra z.:l ship was lost the same night, crew saved, Captain Bt.AcxmaNT, of Dunkirk, the celebrated commander cf several French privateers, who has been confined as a prisoner of war at Gillingham, was released gal Sunday, and left Chatham to go be fore the Transport Board, preparatory to his return ing to France. All the natives or inhabitants of Dun kirk, who were prisoners, were released at the same time, in return for the liberation of the English pri soners of war, last week at Dunkirk. Tuesday, an inquisition was taken before S. JACICA- NtAN, Esq. one of the Coroners of Ipswich, on view of the bodies of William Anderson, John Robson and John Simpson, seamen, belonging to the ship Whit burn, of Sunderland, who, being employed in a boat in weighing the cage anchor of the said ship, lying at Dunham Reach, the boat upset, and the poor fel lows were unfortunately drowned. The depth of water being considerable when the accident happened, it was a long time before the bodies could be found. A fourth man was in the boat, and sunk with her he was taken out of the water nearly exhausted, but has since recovered. The same evening the three men were interred in one grave in St. Mary Quay. BONAPAOTE.—There are some approximations of dates so striking that history will not fail to dwell upon them. On the 30th of March, 1813, BONAPARTE declared that 44 should ever the enemy's armies be encamped on the heights of Montmartre. not a village of the provinces united constitutionally to the empire should be given up." On the 80th March, 1814, Paris capitulated to the allied troops who had attacked the capital on the very side of Montmartre. On the Ist April, 1810, BONAPARTE COOMICted a marriage which seemed to secure the Throne to him i for ever. On the lat April, 1314, the Senate declared that be had forfeited the-Imperial dignity. • e-..._ ~»~ Ap•-• MP' rz , NEWMARKET PRAVEN MEETING, 1514. . . . , • ratoor.ArßlL I.S.

He went on atter heat by time every m;le, and at the etpira: tion of two hours he had done 10 miles, having the nill at Barnet before him. SANDWICH SESSIONS, APRIL 14, 1814. VIE KING v. DIAJOIt cottoost„ This day at half-past ten o'clock the witnesses on behalf of the prosecution in this case were sworn b fore the Mayor, %tenant) Emstensom, Egg. the corder, W. F. 13oTuett, E , q. and the Jurats . .%f Borough, and the Bill was sent up with the wilts , s—s to the Grand Jury, that they might reins n it tit,.e as true or false. The private examination of the evi dence lasted until three o'clock, wheat the Foreman delivered in the indictment for Murder as A true Bill. The testimony on both sides being Iwo , vo:uniincus, the Court adjourned until nine o'clock to-morrow morning, when the ttial still be commenced. M. de Chateaubriand h ,s addretse I the following letter to the Editors of the Paris Papers : 4 ‘ It was natural enough that in the first moments of our freedom the august Princes who entered our w-lls should alone excite the transports of our grad. tude. We were justly dazzled, and shall preserve an eternal tecillect:on of the magnanimity of Alexander, and the successor of the Great Frederick. It was also with a feeling of admiration that our eyes were fixed upon the Austrian Generalissimo, who reminded us of :he greatness of the sacrifices of his vi,tuous and worthy master. , The other Sovereigns in the holy league will be always dear to France, for the love they !sear our King, and the hatred they have vowed to our tyrant. liut not a single Frei:climan has for gotten what he owes to the Prince It. gent of England and the noble people who have so deeply contributed to our deliverance. Tlle standard of Elizabeth floated in the armies of Henry IV.: it re-appears in the bat talions that restore us L• uis XVI [I. We are too sen sible of glory nut to admire Lord We:lington, who retraces in so striking a manna the virtues and the talents of our 'Furrow... " Are we not moved to tears, when we see this truly great man promise, on wir retreat iron' Portu gal, two guineas tor each Fitnch prisoner that should be brought in alive. By the sole moral force of his character, more even than by the vigour of military discipline, he suspended miraculously, ti entering -nr provinces, the resentment of the Portuguese and the vengeance of the Spaniards ; in short, it is under ins standard that the first cry of Vivo le Rol! awoke our unhappy country. Instead of a captive King of France, the new Black Prince brings back to Bour &aux a King of France delivered. When King John was sent to London, touched with the generosity of Edward, he attached himself to his conquerors, and returned to die in the land of his captivity, as if he had foreseen that that land would become the last asy lum of the last branch of his race, and that one -day the descendants of the Talbot), and Chandoses would gather up the proscribed posterity of the La Hires asisa lluguesciine.—l am, &c. (Signed) " DE CHATEAUBREARD." PRIVATE LET I EL " Coast of France, Wednesday, April 13, 11114. " On Saturday last Bonaparte was still at Foa tainbleau ; he would not move without his wife and child ; these the Emperor of Austria would not con sent should join him from Blois, where they still were. Bonaparte remained with about 3000 troops, chiefly Poles, who continued with him, ignorant of what reception they might meet with from their old Mtster„ the Emperor of Russia ; to whom, when their fears were made known t he sent a pardon to them with out reserve. It was therefore expected that he would be on Monday last nearly, if not quite, deserted. " The Emperor of Russia has gained the hearts of the country most completely, by his mild, liberal conduct ; and if no demand is made on France as a reimbursement, which teems the general fear, the Allies will be deified. The Russians keep the most exact discipline at Paris. A lady was passing along the Punt de Jena, when a Russian soldier caught a gold chain, to which a watch was suspended, from round her neck ; she complained Immediately to an Officer near ; the man was pointed out , the O ffi cer d in r s e t w an h tl i y s . veswreocrodarendd the ran chain,tbe man through and through the body delivered them to the complainant : a n e y e - witness mentioned the fact to me last night. , 4 Here every thing is as quiet and tranquil as if no change had taken place.
