It is universally admitted, that there is a Visible 1 deprepion of spirit and relaratioh of exertion in . all the French corps and parties since the defeat of the French Armies on the side of both the Peninsula and Getmany. In the former, there have of late been frequent parkmantaird; or flags of truce, for the ar. 'rangement of little matters that May be settled with— out asy advantage or disadvantage to either side ;,.• and, consequently, for the bent of both o without bloodshed. Conversations are held with the French and English, and othet Officers.

This observation is of vast importance. - It is understood by those to whom it is made, to say as much as this : 4. The Officers % of our army might be disposed. to shake of the yoke of the Usurper.

This day, according tathir etiquette of Court, being time Anniversary of her Maateree Bieth, the Park and Tower gbns were firedit one o'clock. Yesterday the Duke of Yoke transacted tirittary business with the PRINCE REGENT fur a considerable time. It is said tow certainly the intention of the Eiffpe. rot- of RUESIAtCI visit London ; the time of courarrsitt. pending upon the state of the war. The report now current in the higher circles' of- French emigrants is, that all the Princes of the HOuse Bounittio ' except his Majesty, Loots XVIII. w ill soon aet out for the . head-q natters of the allied arm i es . It is 'added, that a uote written by Prince METTER- NiC/I, gives the sanction of the Emperor of &IST/UR proceeding. The following •eommunication has been made to us froni a respectable quarter s.-In the contemplation of a Congress to adjust the terms of peace among the belligerent powers, a proposition was made to our Government by the Court of Russia, that the Ame. ran Commissioners who have been some time at ' that Court, should attend at such Congress, with a view to the consideration and adjustment of our dis. pines with America. But this proposition met the fate of the proffered mediation of Russia, which, it is understood, was declined 'with a distinct declaration, that 4 , Great Britain would not submit its controversy with America to the deteamination of any third Power." The reply of Ministers to the late proposi. doh was somewhat similar, but, as we are assured, nthch more decisive. Foiafser the usual professions of rann-tesy and assurance' of the respect and retard eneesuined by our Couv fat jho Empty° r. A -LEILAN- Dna, resolution was firmly Impressed agai n st sub: mining what are termed 46 the maritime rights" of England for discussion at gay Congress whateVer.— In this it is apostood, that the Russian Court acquiesced. ' - We have also heard • from Authority, that in the answer which BONAPARTi gave to the offer or peace, made to him on the bid December, he accepted of the terms, agreeing to the independence of the King doms and States, which were independent at the commencement of the war with the Allied Powers, with this imperfect addition--that they should also agree to declare and guarantee the independence of the Seas--or in other 'words, that should by a formal confederacy determine to resist the maritime righti,of Great Britain. The Frel)Eh EMPEROR no doubt thought that he should procure Ilse acquies cence of the Courts of Russia, Vienna and Berlin, in this proposition , and he Was probably aware o f 'th e / proposition respecting America, that had been made ,by the .Emperor ALticatmea.—ln this artful manoeu vre, however, he completely failed. The RevolUtion in Holland had burst—which, in itself, opened a new field of discussion, and the answer given by the Al: liesigetrereignsasess, that they must mole known this. 2111141, Olt AtiVelllttra VO. the Britt% Conn. no a. l ithe - . ..........- ... va,.. ...• .., ••••••••••• w . n =AMOR!' - --.- - -.-- -- -..-..", - ili-katfa42o o o: the entrincimietits_by mit* surrawid an this ; amine the Cammilidant, -- -seven Allies Viiiilini prieiltes. ancione piece of cannon, were "odd haveft:sfr -7 mßir" . - .

The present itself is thought to have more re ference to political subjects than to mere matters of form or. courtesy. The 'following anecdote does such honour to the sentiment and feeling of the Russian army, and its commanders, that we are pleased to have an oppor tunity of giving it a place in our Journal : Whilst on their march betweea Rasta& and Baden, they'approached the place where the great TURRNNII was killed. The no less illustrious Momeity bad, in one of his campaigns, marked the spot by a slept, mannment. In front of this monument the -Russian. Igrial Guards mounted a guard ofhonour, duriag Ae whole of the 2 hours that the troops were passing. The march past the monument was conducted with drums _beating and bands playing. This aaecdute allay be relied on ; and woulsf, of itself, be a refuta tion of the odious epithet of barbarians, with which ill* real barbarian, BONAPARTy has dared to desig eate his conquerors of the North. .The Italian prisoners of war selected from the pri ma ships, and amounting to 1000:effective men, art on board the transports Ifulmer, Duncosnb, Harriett, andqullingwoodovaiting orders to sail. 'They ar* commanded by Major BOU'VERIE. The Decree for calling out the National Guard of '- Paris has been conceived improperly to raise a force of 30,000 men. There ate air Arondissnients in the Department, .each of which is to furnish a legion, consisting of four battalions, each battalion of five companies, each company of 17.5 met-;.so that the amount will be only 15,000, even if effectually car oled into execution.—lt is supposed that the workmen under Government, the tax-gathercrt, dell's in of fice, &c.
