Omni= St j 3 du.—hank Long Anst.l6l9-16the We have stated in preceding papers all that is pub licly known respecting the negotiations at Ghent. They may be considered as suspended for the pre sent; but we apprehend that those who assert them to be entirely broken off, are not correctly. informed. That, eventually, they will be broken or we have little doubt; for JONATHAN has not yet had time to feel his true situation. He vapoured so much about prowess and invincibility as at last to bring himself to believe that all the windy nonsense with which he was inflated was real power and energy. John Bull's destiny was fixed by the infallible NAPOLEON, and JONATHAN was to have little else to do than to divide the prey. Not excepting even the worst specimens of moral political turpitude, exhibited by the French, during any period of the last 25 years, more vile, atrocious, and detestable principles never actuated the human mind. than those which had sway for some time at . Washinedn: Regardlest of every moral obligation— deaf to the callsof afflicted and oppressed nations—for getful of their own origin, and the ties of blood, the American Government sought the overthrow of the last prop of civilised society—the extirpat:on of the only Power left upon Earth to vindicate the Rights of Nations : and this, too, at a moment when she be lieved that the numerous foes, with which Britain had then to contend, would so press upon her as to pre ♦ent her from even resenting any insult that might be offered to her. America has not yet awaked from her dream.— The stupifying opiate administered by her quack Rulers, according to the prescription of the French Doctor, will yet require a considerable dose of British acid, before the patient recovers the perfect use of right reason. Several cargoes have already gone from this country, others are in preparation, which, if duly ad ministered, may, it is thought, effect a perfect cute. An English prescription offered at Ghent has been refused. Its ingredients must first be submitted w the inspection of Dr. MADISON. Without pretending to superior information on the subject, we believe the fact to be ;imply as stated in •ur last. The Asnerical: Commissioners finding cer tain demands made by the English Negotiators, not even touched upon in their instructions, have request ed time to procure fresh instructions from the other side of the Atlantic. In the mean time, the war will be carried on with activity, and the American Commissioners will have time to follow mercantile speculations, should they be so inclined. Some of them will, it is said, return to America, as it is thought that a little v;va wee discussion wi11• better prepare them for their next meeting with the British Commissioners than mere dispatches. Messrs. GALATIN, CLAY, and BAYARD, and their Secretaries, will, it is said, go to Brest, to be ready to sail from that port on the Ist of October. by which time it is expected that the Neptune (privi leged as a cartel) will have arrived there from Gotten burgh. Messrs. ADAMS and Russet. wiU, in the interim, fulfil their duties as Ministers at the Courts of St. Pe tersburgh and Stockholm. Congress meets in the first week of November, when, it is probable, the Neptune will have arrived, and the proceedings at Ghent have been submitted to M.anisoN, and Co. at Washington. Upon the general state of relations between the two countries, and the terms upon which a Peace might to be concluded with the United States, we shall effer some remarks in a few days. Today we have received Paris Papers to Monday. .The Moniteur is nearly filled with the proceedings in the Chamber of Deputies on the 26th instant, when M. FAREZ developed his projet for mak•a; the King's Ministers responsible for every thing which shall be done by them in the name of the King. M. BOIRZT then read a proposal for a law to lighten the burden •f the Ociroit lifunicipaux. The discussion on both motions was adjourned.— Among the petitions which were rejected were some appealing against the Decrees of the French Courts, by which the property of Emigrants was definitively vested in the purchasers, during the Revolution, and not a few complaining of hardships still resulting from the Conscription-laws, which, it would appear, have left a sting behind them, which will long fester into jea kn:sies and discord in France. Tht case of these petitioners would afford :In excel. lent harvest to our English lawyers.—The grievances tor:,ll4ined of by one of them will, perhaps, furnish a xrooping for some future historical picture of the tr.iseries of .France, under the Usurper, and serve more clecply, to rivet the sentiments of abhorrence, which pervade every honourable mind, against him. M. CARTAULT, of Fontainbleau, connplains that he was the happy father of five children, until three of them were killed in battle. BUONAPARTE I that never-to-be-forgotten destroyer of the human race, then demanded his fourth and only remaining son, as coming wishing tho conscription of 181.5. M. CAR- T:lvo', with all the feelings of an affectionate father, and having had enough in his family at least of that •• glory" which hovered around •• the ever sublime genius of the BonittfOr" and Ws followers, procured a substitute at the enormous espe nse of MOO Danes, it 4600 English, when the relative value of money n the two countries is considered. The state of his inances did not admit of his paying the money down, out he agreed to pay k to the substituted conscript, or his relatives, by instalments. M. CAIITAULT iS Willing to pay the instalments which fell due uring the three months of actual service, but, as all the con- scrips of 1815 were then sent Some, he contends that he is ther;by released from further payment. Tie Committee who report upon his Petition, argue with much apparent reason, that this is a contract - - between individuals with which the nation or its Re. presentatives have nothing to do, and remind M. CARTAULT, that the substitute might have been killed during his three months service, and at all events that his son never quitted the bosom of his family. We call M. CA.RTAULT'S case a very hard one, but we by no means impugn the decision of the Committee, on his Petition, which was rejected on fair and constitu tional grounds, namely, that to pronounce any opi nion upon it would be to prejudge any action at law which might be brought by either party. Petitions were also read, praying for a reversion of the French Bankrupt Laws, and for a relaxation of certain duties on publishing the works of a dead au thor, the profits upon which were appropriated to himself by one of BUONAPARTE'S Decrees, of the 29th of April, 1811. A Petition from some Colonists of Martinique, complain of being swindled by tuoNoroure, by an other Imperial Decree, of the 23d of December, 1810. These poor Frenchmen supplied the French garrison, or rather the Colonial Government of Martinique, with large sums, in February 1809, previous to their embarkation for Europe; and BUONAPARTZ, displeas ed, no doubt, with the capture of the Island, vented his malicious rage upon the unfortunate garrison, by refusing payment of certain Bills of Exchange, drawn upon the Imperial Treasury. One private petition from an individual, relates an act of generosity almost unparalleled in any country. A person, who will not suffer his name to be men tioned, having purchased the property of an Emi grant who had been depord, and discovering that lie had died abroad, leaving his brother destitute, nobly presents the estate to the rightful heir. The latter petitions to be permitted to take up his estate as heir to his Brother, and not as a purchaser, or donade, as he will thereby, save a large sum in fees. We apprehend that, upon perusing the article in the French Papers from Palermo, our Readers will be convinced that the doom of Joocuist McnoT, the self stiled King of Naples, has been finally sealed. The Sicilians are justly indignant at the idea of their king supplicating an indemnity for the Crown of Naples. How did he lose it?—and how did MURAT acquire it? These questions will, of course, be discussed at the Congress of Vienna, where the legitimate Sovereign of Naples will, no doubt, be represented. By the declaration of the 24th April, alluded to in the article from Palermo, the King of the two Sicilics fermally demanded the Crown of Naples, and called upon the Allied Sovereigns to aid him in recovering it. PARIS, AUGUST 211. The Duke of Orleans arrived at Paris to-day, to be present at the grand City entertainment. His Serene Highness will set off on Wednesday to meet the Princess his wife, and the Princess Montpensier, who are coming hither by slow journies, and by wa ter, in consequence of the pregnancy of the former Lady. The Duke of Cambridge, the seventh son of his Majesty the King of England, has also arrived in Paris. M. Dubos, Sub-Prefect of Saint Denis, has had the honour to present to the King a board, on which are fastened two of the teeth of Henry IV. the whole of his mustachio, and a small piece of the linen which covered his body. These precious relics were secur ed, when the tombs were ransacked at the revolu tion, by the late Sieur Desingy, the Swiss (or Porter) to the Abbey, who saved them at the risk of his life : they hare continued until now in the possession of his widow. On the same board are also placed three of the teeth of Marshal Turenne. To the persevering zeal of M. Dubos we are indebted for the preserva. tion of the Abbey and Church of Saint Denis :—this splendid monument of antiquity was ordered to be razed to the ground. On entering upon his func tions, the Sub-Prefect removed all the projects for its destruction, temporized, and succeeded in not only rreserving the Chula, but in getting it repaired. The letter from New-York, which we gave a few days ago, and which stated the submission of Petion to the Bourbons, came to us from Nantz, and we are assured that it was written by one of the first mer cantile houses in America. It is therefore very likely to be correct. There is a black girl, about 20 years of age, ac cording to her own account, now traversing the de. partment of the Meuse, furnished with a passport to tejoin the first regiment of the Old Guard, to which she has belonged for eight years as a drummer. She says, that her father lived at Alexandria at the time of the French Expedition to Egypt. He was made a Captain of a Corps of black Mamelukes, formed by Bonaparte, but was killed in one 'of the battles with the English. This girl was then only six years of age, and she followed her brotker, a black Mameluke also, into France. The Duke of Monte• bello had her baptized at Bourdeaux, three years after the return from Egypt. by the name of Merle-Vic- Wire: the sister of General Lagrange was her God.; mother. Death having deprived her of het protec tor:, she enlisted as a drummer, made the campaign of Russia, and having,received a wound from a lance in the thigh, was made prisoner. The wound re vealed her sex. She was sent to St. Petersburgh, and she speaks highly of the good treatment she received there. She returned to France with one of the con voys of prisoners of war, and is about to rejoin her regiment as above stated. This poor creature, although perfectly illiterate, speaks very good Preach without any foreign accent. Nothing can equal her agility and gaiety : on at-riving at St. Mihiel on the 21st of Augrst, she danced at a ball with some young girls, although she had that day travelled on foot a double stage, as marked on her route. trrl LILG ••er an( city. flies, •ve t.L.I ehendo , saw: , the Cc of the, cr, all t , situat iege rnmen ing is •elgic at Vie ,verian: )s of I cuts. re alre: •as exi the 01 les a ci g, egime 11111T1C1 The of the sio.*;r3 one good .4 on the new B blo p: effect riot ai eing . a u4trian ers, bt Liege Brst tl,te 4mbric 'his w range the C w n zthe e des re-eni the 1 re des , ndati( IS Mit :1 of !lan I der a "0 0 le), th st ray! which ctinl s of tl he 224 ' oyal etherL of the ency I 'ng at .is Re tain, • ereig •f the n pre; ' of t f the s of gone the G the I . with the s recept t of th ertir2 ntion, ise his mall • pri:s4 Bad; as be lour P rince - ices in th 7; t.ll 1/SQS V ed upi wh is sfacti( h ere c 17 -4- 7 Yftl: ould h * shoe day ti Pi Trwr tii.e!: It dr, • Ce. e. d.vt d to I y, a ,-.

Our Gazette contains the following article A Neapolitan Gazette of the Sth of July, having inserted a letter from London, of the 16th of June, in . whith it is said, that the visit of the Duke of Orleans, to England, had, for its object, to demand, from the August Allier, tome compensation: in favour of hi: father-in-law, for the lon of the Kingdom of Naples ; we are authorised to declare, that this was not the object of the mission of his Serene Highness the Duke of Orleans, in Eng land. We are certain, on the contrary, that the Prince has boldly asserted to the Allied Sovereigns, the in. terests and rights of the King, his August Father-in law, in conformity with the declarations of his Ma. jesty, of the 24th of April of the present year." VIENNA, AUGUST IR. The Emperor has declared the iron crown to be one of the Orders of his House, and assumed the (Ace of Grand Master. The changes which he pur poses to make in the Constitution of the Order, will be immediately made known, meantime all the Mem bers are authorised to wear their present decorations. We are assured that Lord Castlereagh will arrive about the end of the month in this capital, and that. alter having passed some days here,. be will proceed with Prince fsletternich to Warsaw, where the Em peror of Russia and King of Prussia are expected about the middle of September. A report had been spread that the King of Saxony would soon arrive at Vienna, to take part in the Con gress, but this report is now discredited. Thisi Prince continues to lead a very retired life in the Castle of Fredericksfeld, near Berlin. The Emperor of Russia has not only taken off ail. sequestration from the property of every individual wbo served in the army of the Dutchy of Warsaw, but also by an Ukase, dated at Paris on the 25th May last, transferred the succession of Prince Joseph po niatowsky to his sister and heir at law, Countess Maria Teresa Tyschiewicz.—Our exchange on Augs , burg is 227. LEIPSIC, AUGUST 16. It is with surprise that we have read in the foreign Rinroak the intelligence of a Deputation from the Provincial States of Saxony being sent to Berlin, to solicit the King of Prussia to incorporate our King dom with the Prussian Monarchy. The fact is, that the Provincial States of Saxony have not even been called together. The decided wish of all the Saxons is, for the return of their King, and the independence of their country. FRONTIERS OF AUSTRIA, AUGUST 17. The Austrian • General Baron de Koller, who ac companied Bonaparte to Elba, has left Vienna fur St. Petersburgh on a special mission. Preparations continue at Vienna for the reception of the illustri ous Sovereigns ; but there will be no camp at Min kendorf. AUGSBURG, AUGUST 21. The Austrian Observer, (a demi-official Journal, edited by M. de Pelac, private Secretary to Prince Metternich), violently attacks the Gazette of Nurem berg for having mutilated a speech of Lord Auck land's concerning the States which have a right to send Ministers to the Congress at Vienna. Tuesday, the Princess CHARLOTTE dined at Wind sor Castle with her MAJESTY, the PRINCE REGENT, and PRINCESSES ; after dinner they went to Frogmere, where they • had a select party for the tvening ; her MAJEsrv's band attended ; soon after ten they re turned. . This 'morning, soon after eleven o'clock, Princess CHARLOTTE arrived from Cranhourn Lodge at the Castle, to visit her Royal Father, previous to his leaving Windsor. Her MAJESTY, and the Prince uses ELIZABETH and MARY, took an airing to Frogmore. Princess CHARLOTTE followed them in her plmton.---, Princesses AUGUSTA 41+d SOPHIA took theit 7 usual air ing—the former on horseback, the latter in a carriaw. Sir BnENT SPENCER left Windsor on Thursday. Sir THOMAS Tyawnurr arrived at Stutgard, on the lath of August, on his way to Vienna. Mr. CANNING and Mr. HUSKISSON are making a tour to the Lakes ; after which Mr. CANNING, it is un derstood, visits Liverpool, previous to his departure for Lisbon. Colonel MACDONALD, late Military Secretary to Lord NIDDRY, has resigned the appointment of De puty-Adjutant-General to the forces in Sentland. Lieutenant-General Dor; is appointed Lieuiciant- Governor of Gibraltar, and is to proceed eery soon to take the command of that fortress. Lieutenant- General TURNER succeeds General Dox in the com mand at Jersey. The following Recruiting Districts have been dis continued, and the Staff put on half-pay : Aberdeen. Durham. Sumhamptun. I Birmingham. I Hereford. Shrewsbury. LA FAYETTE had lately an audience of Lours XVIII. and was graciously received. He desired nothing for himself, but all his friends, such as LA TOUR MAuaouao, &c. have obtained employments.

They coniplaed their ccu!se of 4i minutes, to the great amusement and astoti .hir.ent of a respectable company. Mr. Trio:was KNICAIT, of Tewkesbury, has under taken, fir a wager of 200 guineas, to perform tl , a astonishing pedestrian feat of 100 miles in nineteen successive hours, either to walk or run, but without any assistance whatever. The match was made OR Monday last, and is to be performed within a month, or forfeit £2O. Immense sums are pending. A race, which excited much sporting interest, took place on Tuesday, over the Blackwater witting ground, between Captain H,►asoN's grey gelding Jffry, and a bay horse, the charger of an Officer of the 14th Pragoons.

Instances of mad dogs have of late been very nu merous. The parish. of Clerkenwell is, very prudently, placarded, by order of the Magistrates, enjoining.all the inhabitants who have dogs, to keep them tied r.p, under the threat of a penalty for neglect ; Camden town has been alarmed, during the last ten days, .a consecprence of a mad dog having run through that place last Sunday se'nnight, and bitten many do, s there, in its progress A child, near S..nru re, :is lately bitten by a mad dog.
