That he ha; Committed this infringement upon the rights of the people, even when he adjourned, without necessity,. the Legislative Body, and sup pressed, as criminal, a Report of that Body, whose title and share in the national representation he dis Futed : " That he has iindertaketi a series of wars in viola tion of the Fiftieth Article of the Act of the Consti tution df the '22d Frimaire, year eight, which tequires that the declarAtion of war should be proposed, dis cussed, decreed, and promulgated, as laws are : " That he has unconstittitinnally passed several Decrees, inflicting the penalty of death, particularly the two Decrees of the sth March last, tending to have considered as national a war which had no ground but ie the gratification of his own immea surable amletion : " That he has violated the censtitutional laws by his Decrees upon the State Prisons : is '1 hat he has annihilated the responsibility of Ministers, conieunded all the power s, and destroyed the independence cf the Judicial Bodies : " Considering that the liberty of the press, esta blished and consecrated as one of the rights of the nation, has been constantly subjected to the arbitrary censure of his police, and that at the same time he has always availed himself of the press to fill France and Europe with fabrications, false maxims, doctrines fa vourable to despotism, and outrages against foreign Governments : " The acts and reports approved by the Senate have undergone alterations in their publication by him' " Considering that, instead of reigning for the sole view of the interest, happiness, and glory of the French people, according .to the terms of his oath, Napoleon has completed the misfortunes of the coun try, by his refusal to treat upon conditions which the rational interest, required him to accept; and which did not compromise the honour of France : " By the Abuse which he has committed, of all the Leans confided to him in men and money; by for- PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.

Mr. Mrxrs, the Messenger, arrived this morning at the FOreign Office, with dispatches from Lord CASTLEREAGH, hut they are o .ly duplicates of those already received. Mr. MEATS came by the way of Switzerland and Holland, and was therefore detained considerably on his route. It was at one time sup posed he had been killed. Ample extracts frOni the trench Papers to the Sth instant, will be found in another part of our Paper: We briefly noticed the intelligence brought by them yesterday. Perhaps not the least important of their contents are—the minuet of the proceedings of the Conserva tive Senate-; by which they formally, in a kind of manifes.o. declare their reasons for overthrowing the Napoleon Dyna , ,ty. nos APARTk is accused of levying taxes and making war, in degan, e of the Constitution and in violation of his Oath. His execrable system of despotism, or rather terrorism, is briefly, but correctly, described. In short, the present Legislators of France, whatever tnay have been their former demerits, hate done much tow rds the redemption of their characters in the estimation of all good men, by the temperate and philt•sophic spirit in which they have etf cted the glorious co qiter4evolution. They seem to have taken for :heir models the Patriots who, in former ages, acquired immortality by being the saviours of their respective countries. was by short, pithy, and judicious denunciations ; like those of the Conservative Sentte, that the usur pation of CuomwELL, and the bigotted despotism of the last of the Srunturs, were successively made pal pable to the understandings of the people, who hailed the appeal which was thus made to them wi,h corres pondent emotion. Eternal honour to the Allied So. vereigns and ever revered be their Councillors, who, by a steady perseverance in the pursuit of one great Object, namely, the overthrow of BONAPARTE, have conferred the inestimable blessings of universal Peace upon Mankind ! the mild, conciliatory ; and judi cious Proclamations which they issued to the French nation, have done more towards the attainment of ibis mighty purpse than the edge of the conquer- ing sword. E‘er Tictorions, the short breathitg time which their restless and untameable enemy gave them was occupied, not in preparing for fresh combats, bur in preaching up the language of peact and good-will to the childless and houseless inhabitants of France. In saving Paris from destruction, they have given a pledge, (if pledge from such heroes as ALEXANDER and FRANCIS, SCHWARTZENDERG and BLUCHER, were necessarf,) that they were ~incere in 7 Their wishes to see France happy, and flourishing, and free. They have therefore founded the new constitution of that distracted country upon a rock which sill resist the storms of ages. The future Sovereigns of France will live in the hearts of their subjects, because they will learn from history the awful moral lesson, that in the days of their security and popularity, they ought to lay up their treasures in the affection:, and not in the isturions of the people. It was thus that ALEXANDER the GOOD repelled the unprincipled Invader from his dominions; and it was by despising this great prin- ciple of the law of Nature, that BONAPARTE the BAD WES hurled from the eminence which he had attained.

The garrison con sisted of 1000 men. On Saturday night the Doris 'was captured by an American privateer, and treated in the most inhuman manner. 1, DOVER, APRIL u. ~~. ce Several large fires were observed on the French Coast last night, and this day soon after noon there was much tiring there. A boat from Gravelines with three English prisoners came over last night the Commander of the Guard brig at that place and three French Gentlemen also came over.in her—they all wear the white cockade. No other arrival from the opposite Coast." " RYE, APRIL U.—Fire o'CLocK P.M. ce The STAG revenue cotter is just arrirod in the Roads, and has announced by signal that the White Flag is twisted at Boulogne." Various ane Tdotes are related of the manner in which the arrangements respecting Bonaparte /iVJS brought about. According to some, Bonaparte himself came to Paris incognito, and there obtained the best terms he could from the Provisional Government. According to others, Ney was the person who broke the matter to him, and counselled him to accept the offer of it retreat, inasmuch as, though he nrig`•it protract the war a few weeks, or months at the most, supposing nodisaffection in his soldiers, yet he must he conquered at last ; and, with respect to the attachment of the troops, Ney, it is added, afforded Bonaparte little ground to depend on it, and even intimated that he himself should adhere to the Provisional Government. The Grand Duchess "of OLDMIURGII visited the College of Surgeon:, in Lincoln's-inn-fields, yester day. She nest proceeded to the Foundling Hospital, afterwards to the Duke of DevoNsnillE'S mansion In Piccadilly, and returned to her Hotel, after passing through Bind -street, Oxford -street, and Hyde Park. Lord NVELLns LEV is sTone to East Cliff Lodge, near Rarnsgate, for the Recess. Letters were yesterday received from Clermont of the 7th, from Bruges of the 9th, and from Ostend of the date of Sunday. From the contents of these, there apptars no doubt that all the fortresses in French possession, from the Vistula to the Moselle, will obq the orders of the Provisional Government. The Com mandant at Ostend says, in justification of his not re signing the place, that General MArsos: is his superior officer, and that when he shall have it in command from his superior to march out with l'is garrison, he shall immediately comply. General MAtSON has al ready signified his adherence to the new order of things, and waits only for instructions from the a it thOrities of Paris, to V , hich he professes his readiness to conform. Letters were yesterday received from the River Plate : those from Buenos Ayres are to the 'Jodi of January, and from the mouth of the River they are several days later. The account of the defeat of the revolutionary General BELGRANO is confirmed by this opportunity. In opposition to «hat has keen statod from Vera .Cruz, we have the subsequent particulars respecting the expedition to Venezuela, consisting of WOO men, in several transports, who it will he recol lected escaped from a snare laid for them by the mal contents. After that affair, they sought refuge in Porto Cabello, and when they bad occupied that sta t :on for a short time, they made a sortie upon the Revolu tionists, who appearedloefore the place. This silly wash conducted by their commander General Monteverde in person, the attempt was unsuccessful, and he hin-- self was so severely wounded as to be constrained to resign his command. Since that affair the Spaniards have not judged it prudent to disturb the assailants, and in the mean time to compel the surrender of the station, the latter have placed a naval force bofcre , the place, and it is suppoeed that the garrison will be so much straitened for provisions as to be obliged soon to capitulate. ~_ BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCt.

EITHAORIANARY CASE.—OH Sunday, about twelve o'clock, a labouring man, on passing through ken sington Gardens, observed a man respectably dressed lying on a quantity of hay in the woody part, of the gardens, in a very bloody s t ate , : l nd Aiparoitly thee Weeding fast ; the marl hastened to procure assistance, and procured Bacon, the conductor of the patrole, who has the snperintendance of the G trdens. They found the man not only bleeding at the left arm, but his clothts very wet and muddy. The ac count he gave of himself was, that be was a Cap• lain in the Navy—that he had been walking in Konsing:on-Gardens on Saturday evening, and sat down to rest in one of the alcoves, where he fell asleep, and did not awake till the discharge of the park guns roused him, soon aster eight o'clock at night. He then left his seat, and was proceeding near the basin, when he was shot in.his left arm, and driven I into the water by robbers, who afterwards dragged him out of the water, and robbed him of cash and notes to the amount of £lO, with which they made off. He could not meet with any body to give him :issistance, nor could he find his way out of the Gin. dens, and when he came to the hay, he laid hitiorlf down upon it, and had been 9 , ) weakened, ftom the loss of blood, that he had not been abli• to move aga'n. He was asked what had become of the builet which Letcted his arm ? he replied, lie had picked it out of ins arm, aid he did nut know what had oetoine of it. His pen-kuite was found . in (me of his boots, but it was not in a bloody state. He was conveyed to St. George's Hospital, where the :Surgeon found that the wound was given in the leit arm, just above the bend of the arm, near the•place where persons are nsually bled, it was s about the size of a half realty, of vokry lib le depth, and the surgeon thought it too large for a bullet wound. The mystery attached to the circum taoce is, that thespot where the robbery andlosbefog drivenc to the water to, k place, is opposite the alace , there ate three seuttaels and plenty of li g hts, which Any , person must have seen. None of the sentinels en duty at and near the Palace at the time the Otlicrr states the attack upon him to have taken pace, heard the discharge of tare-arms. tie sated fiims-lf to he Cai.tain Birsay, of his Majesty's packet the Nymph , and that he lodged, when in London, at the Berl and Crown, Holborn. Enquiry has been made at the Bell and Crown, and his account appears to be cop rect. He is in a fair way Of recovery. I ■ 1.
