PARIS, MAncir 20.—T0-dav, the 20th of March. being the anni versary of the birth-day of the King of Rome, his Majesty has re ceived the hutnage and the congratulations of the principal persons in the empire. To-day, at two o'clock, her Majesty the Empress took a walk on the terrace of the ThuiNemo. Die garrison of Pergen-op-Zoom has made a very successful sally, and taken the Commander of the English troops besieging it. A Freschtuan, who is come back from Dresden. where he had been made prisoner, informs us, that he did not see a single corps in all the parts of Germany through which lie travelled, nor yet on the banks of the Rhine. All the enemy's reserves had j.►ined him before the late. affairs ; thus he has not a single reinforcement to hope- for. The fine and numerous column of new troops brought by General Janson, which the Emperor reviewed at Rheims, was composed of old soldiers, who are impatient to meet the ,enemy. Accounts from Switzerland, dated at the beginning of this month, tells us ; that many cantons reject the arrangements proposed by the Allies. There is a great fermentation in people's minds, and it is dif ficult to foresee when it will stop. Die Empress of Russia is arrived at Berlin - , where she has been re ceived with the honours due to her rank. The 1.111131er of Justice of the Kingdom of Italy has just published a decree, recalling all the subjects of that kingdom, who, without the Emperor's pertuisitior, are in the service of King of Naples. Tory have a delay of three months from the Ist of k'ebruarv. PARTS, MARCH TH.—Private letters announce that a corps of French troops has entered Chalons-sur-Marne, and driven from it the enemy, frivol whom it took many prisoners. CHATEAU THIRRY, MARCH 17.—We this instant learn that a corps of the French army has entered Chalons sur-Marne, after a battle, in which we took a great number of pri,oners from the enemy. SOISSONS, Manor 17, in the evening.—Nothing new has taken place to-day. The enemy is still held in check upon the Lion road ; that of Rheims is free. The Journal de Paris of the 19th states, that on the 15th an attack was made On Compieg ne by 300 of the enemy, who were repulsed. f The Journal de rEmpire of the 19th, contains a Proclamation rum Soult to his soldiers, dated Head-quarters, the Bth March ; in it he makes no mention of his defeats up to that time; he accuses Lord Wellington of inciting the population to sedition and revolt, calls upon them to revenge this insult in blood, and tells them that whether the assailants or the assailed, that till the Allied Arm). formed of so extraordinary elements, be annihilated, or shall have evacuated the territory of the Emperor there can be no repose for them. _ _ _ FRENcu FuNns.—March 22, 48 franks 50 cents.

Your Excellency will see in this communication an une quivocal proof of the frankness with whirl) the Government has acted in this affair, and id the declarations made to the said Duke • yon will also see therein a proof still more distinguished of the fi delity of the Government to those principles which it has recognised,--not choosing even to enter into explanations, however flattering they might be, without the intervention and concurrenec of the British Cabinet, as well as of those other Cabinets which having engaged in this war, are guided by the same principles of honour to defend a cause as just as it is sacred. The Duke cf San Carlos arrived at Aranjuez in the night of the 4th instant, and being presented to the Reeency, he delivered to them a letter from the King of Spain, Don rerdinand VII., dated Valencay, in which, after inention;ng the good state of health, and of that of his dear brother and his node, the infints Don Carlos and Don Antonio, who were with him ; and manifesting, that he was acquainted and satisfied with the sacrifice% which the nation had made for his Royal Person,—with the brave unalterable constancy of his faithful subjects. the persevering assistance of England, the admirable conduct of her Genera!-in Chief, Lord Wellington, and of the Spanish Generals who bad distingui,shtd thewselves,—Lis 195 Majesty declared, that he hael been spontaneously Dgvited by the Emperor Napoleon, through the medium of his Ambassador The Count de Latorest to adjust a treaty of peace upon propositioos founded on the restoration of his Royal Person ; the ii.tegritv a;.(1 indepepdance of the Spanish States; and exempt from every elaase stoconformable to the honour, the dignity, and imerest of foe Spanish nation ; In consequence of which, his Majesty had audio_ rise(' the Duke of San Cat los to treat in the name of his al a j,,,t v , about an object so important, with Count Latiirest, the Phalip,.i, n _ tiary named by Napoleon to that effect ; awl that this treaty beit.4 , happily concluded, he had sent it to the Regency by the said Mik e , in order that the ratifications might be di awn up in due form.
