In August. 1814, the popu: 'bitten of MoscoW was again 172,991 persons. w ':.ln an “ Almanack of the true French Royalists," ii‘iViinipit is - 1796, ii the following passage:—" The • E ibloelmilou was necessary to prove that it was useless, 79111184111111 end by bringing us back to the p o i n t f rom Mids we set out." . :.. The King of Sweden has conferred on General ..Couat &sniggers the Grand Order of the Sword, FROM FRANCE, OCTOBER O. There is no ground 'whatever for the assertion Made in foreign Papers, that gi the chief partisans and "former confidants of Napoleon are in Paris, and hold stcret Meetings:" The truth is, that almost all those , Ministers and Counsellors of Bonaparte who are not -teontinued in office by the present Government, left the. Capital at the beginning of the Summer, where, ac cording to the Parisian fxthicits, they pass the fine season, particula r ly Oteslatieresid.of Autumn. But,. ~to . judge by the pep erar la t u: in. heir Hotels, it is awn than !Nobel*" that tberrwill return to , Paris ( about the end of AOttiO2O. It is, besides, not true that any Of those men have rken ordered to quit•this c ;Fit; the Gov.rurne.n - t y which ba.s.hithertu.dreate4, deli troy g , nerously, and not taken. the leas silep Waist them. several of pin have been cowsnlted b r their str.e-ssors nObl-thoie pohlis on which they were able . to live inforttlitlon, It may also be con jectured that none of these Gentlemen would refuse a place that was offered him,' and that ,at the spirit which. animates the Government is quite different from what it was, they would act in a very different, i manner. • • • • The Duke of Bassano (Maret) hies at Dijon, with 'his family. At the late visit of the Court D'Artois to th.tt city, he waited on the Prince, who received him with great, affability; and conversed a quarter Of an hour w;th him. The Duchess of Balsam) was also presented to the Prince, and well received. The Duke of Rovigo (Savory) has resided for some months past on his estate, and seldom comes to town. He spend: most of his time in the chace.— The Duke of Vicenza has resided, since the begin ning of the summer, at the chateau of Caulaincourt, in Normandy. Several of his friendi live with him. He haslately married the Countess Canesy, one of the most beautiful and interesting ladies of the late Imperial Court, and formerly Lady of Honour to the Empress Josephine. They say ht is composing a memoir, in which he intends to give important infor mation concerning the arrest of the Duke of Eng. hien, which certain connections have hindered from publishing till now; and that the Ernreror of Russia, to whom he has communicated this information has appreciated it, apd acquitted him of all blame. • The Bourbons, on the other hand, are asserted to be most incensed against him, because he had an op. portunity to fawn* the escape of the Dike, op the way from Strasburg to Nancy, and declined doing so. It is affirmed that the Duke of Wellington made Complaints of the sallies of , everal Paris Journals against the English' on the destruction of Washing ton ; for IA hich he blamed tie G. T.!rnment, becatise the Journals are under its immediate influ:nce, by means of the Censor. Several notes are said to have been exchanged on the subject bete. ecn the Duke of Wellington and the M.nister (ad interim) for Foreign Affairs. The result-was, the dechration in the frieri *dinar*" that this was the only official Journal," and , the defence of ;he conduct of the English in Ame rica, inserted in the Gazette de !.rare, which was drawn up in the style of a half-official reprimand.— So the affair was finishef. In these negotiations.- the French Minister is said to have noticed the violent paragraphs in several English newspapers against the Frtrch Crw , rnment and nation, which the I)Am-of-Wellington acknow. ledged to be blameable, bet said they west to he excused on the ground of the Libetty.of te Press t which existed in England.- The con:iplaints of the Swed:sh Minister, on ac count of the frequent sallies aga:nu Jlie Crown Prince, in French papers, are said to have been frnitlees.' Nothing farther has arrived either tn'cbtsfirns or invalidate the report from flatitax, risiiecting the capture of Sackett's HArbour and.ihe whole pf CHAUNCTIS Fleet.

Sti con, tradicted its own statement, and me that in . all from three, to four hundrtd had deserted at dif =ferent times, from whom General Maeosta 'bought their arms, and then recommended the men to go into the interior. This circumstance, the Editor says , was what gave rise to the report Of LOO detaining in a body. While on the subject of d:•sertere, it may not be improper to notice a measure recommended-by a Mr. Flax, a Member of Congress, as well adapted to se cure victory aver the British. He proposed a legisla tive provision for bribing our soldiers to desert, by offering each deserter a hundred acres of public lands!—Were arguments wanting to shew that it is cruel to curtail the territory of the United States, the excellent uses to which it may be applied, under the Fiskian system, would suffice to convince the most incredulous. It appears that the remonstrances of this Govern ment, respecting the protection and succour given to American vessels, especially armed ships, in French ports, has been productive of an important change— Letters from Paris, received yesterday, state that some American %et-chant vessels having been refused admission into the ports of France, and the impedi ment being continued, on the o ccas i on o f t h e arrival of a Republican ship, called the Neptune, off Brest, Mr. CRAWIORD interposed. He stated to the French Ministerahe embarrassment to which the nation he represented was exposed by such unexpected obstruc tions, which were wholly unknown . amon . g friendly 4 ) s o Wers, and,lte demanded that.the teasel should be 'aidolitted to enter the hatbour. The application was ineffectoal, and the. ill success of it was attributed u the interference of the British Ambassador, who, n appe'ars, had laid some complaints before the Court. as to the conduct of the Masters of American ships. and as to the assistance they had received in the French ports to the annoyance of.the British trader. Another circumstance is also communicated in the same letters. For the purpose of restoring, with every diplomatic advantage, the commerce between France and America, a ship.bad been engaged. by Govern ment to take out a number of Colssuls and other Agents, under the new relations] of the Republic with Lows the Eighteenth. In consequence of the subsisting blockade, and the character of the hostility of his Court towards America, the. British AnOiassa ,-dor signified-to the French Government that it would not be at present useful that these functionaries should be employed in the United States : in consequence the vessel whiCh was to have conveyed them has been stopped, and orders have been issued that they do not proceed to their destination until further instructions be given. The above statement serves to explain the follow ing paragraph which appeared in a Bristol Paper of Saturday last s • " MILFORD, NOVEMBER 16. " Arrived the Mitterve, Barry, from I.anzerotte for Dublin. There is a French pilot of board, who stues that be was carried to sea, together with his boat, in the True-blooded Yankee Ame rican privateer; that she was ordered to quit the French shoe', or she woold be taken possession of by some gene trusses ' as in future no Americans would be allowed to victual and rebtin the French ports. The order from the French Government, it seems, was of such a nit ure es to Induce the master.( the Tree-blooded Yankee to cut his cable and get away with all haste ; and after having sunk the poor pi otleboat at 'sea,tr t i 2irl e y means of support fur himself and family, they put him an board the Mine; va, she brat vessel they fell in with, witleb they plundered of ev,ry Article of value, including ptovisidns, clothes, Ate. and nonspelled the master to sigh a paper, purportini that it was a voluntary gill of Ids." I Last nights variety of interesting topics came un der discussion in the House of O , lllMOls. On. the subject of dielwesent state of oqr politi;al relations with King Joacsuie of Naples, Ministers abstained from comMitting themselves. With respect to Spain, it will give our lte&ders much pleastire to learn that our ,An.bassador at Madrid, and our Ministers at home, utterly disclaim all .participation in the dis graceful conduct pursued by FIBROLWAND since his re turn to Dladrid. The restoration of the Inquisition, for instance, was made the subject of an express re. rrionstranor, the pan of Sir H. Wll4. LiBLEY ; and the seirlre of certain individuals, at Cadiz and Gib raltar, w‘is -notice.l by Ministers as at variance with rl•eir dispositionslowards the inhabitants of Spain. We.linve already noticed the report that the Duke (.1 WIe4III9TON was about.to return_fiosn Pans. It i now said, that Lord Haanoway will be his Grace's speeessor. This change will, accordingue-the same tumour, bring Lord MULGRAVII from the Board of 'I Ordn ante to the Presidentship of 'the Council, vice lord Hmtecsvir ; and the Duke of Watmozon, in that event, is spoken of as the new Master General of the Ordnance. Parliament is expected to adjourn about the 10th OT December till the sth of February following: A private letter from Paris, dated November 14 says— '5 The grounds sttited for the arrest of General Dufour die b that he made a very crinii,:al proposal to ceritifitt 61t duty at the'4oor of his Majesty, and Who hatliaChised tlie'fae.t. Afterwards, in order to silence,this.eurnour, it ;eras given out that be had been recruithig men for the American Government, a pro ceeding which the Cottit'wobld not permit. An or der has been, given for the Ministers 9f the Ex-Ern .perririts quit Paris. They have not submitted to this order, saying that the Constitution does Mat admit of arbitrary acts. Some days ago ball-cartridges were elven .out• to the Guardt du Corps On duty at the Thuilleries, and All the Colonels of regiments were in. strutted ro obey no command di it did not come to , them directly fr o m the Cvnmandant of the place.

In the third Act Miss W. introduced a song, which she sung with the utmost sweetness and effect. The Play was given out fur repetition on Friday amid loud plaudits. ROYAL Hoar.—On Monday the Royal Hunt took place at Salthill, where a numerous assemblage of sportsnien were collected. The deer was started from a cart near East Burnham, and as soon as the hounds got the scent, they went off with great swiftness through the woods, to the right of Beaconsfield, where the deer sheeted excellent sport, and continued it into Bulstrode Park ; the hounds being frequently within 50 yards of it, but it escaped them by leaping into a wood, :ad crossed the Uxbridge-road, and taking to the right to wards Fulmer-heath, where it was at length taken, after an excellent run of three hours. At the com mencement of the Hunt, a Mr. SHAW, being too eager in leaping a high hedge, with a deep ditch un th e op posite side, his horse fell, with Mr. SHAW under him, and it. was feared his back was broken. An express was sent off to Windsor for Dr. O'RiLty, and Mr. SHAW was conveyed in a chaise to his residence in tiatcyhetAane. • • N 47.11.
