The Royal Family is thus distributed—Monsieur left Paris with the King, but is understood to have gone on from Abeville to hasten preparations for his Majesty. He was at Calais on Tuesday night. The Duke de Berri, ard the old Prince of Conde, now between so and 90 years of age, his faculties almost gone, travelled with the king, His son the Duke de Bourbon, the father of the murdered D'En gliien, had set out some days before to join the Duke of Angouleme, and organise a force upon the Banks of the Loire. We have no account of the subsequent movements. —We trust they will not fall into the „tyrant's hands, though some apprehensions are entertained for them. The Duchess of Angoulente was at Bourdeaux on the 14th, and the inhabitants were tbil of loyalty. She had aCcedeil to a request made to ber to remain among them. The troops * however, were for Bnonaparte. The Duke of Orleans was in the North of France. We" are anxious for accounts of all these Royal Personages being safe from the clutches of* tyger, who has already tasted the Royal Wood. There is no doubt but that Bonaparte entered Paris on Monday the 20th inst. On his first landing he declared that he would plant his Eagles in - the Thnil!eries on that day: It was the anniversary of his son's birth-day, and it has ever been a part of his tactics to fix on what he calls fortunate days for great events. In illustration of the joy with which he was received on his way through France, there are mans anecdotes in circulation. Marchand's corps at Grenoble, was the first of any strength, with which he came in contact. On approaching it he threw open his bosom, and exclaimed, " Soldiers, you have been told I am afraid of death—here is my bosom, fire into it if you like !"—The appeal was an. swered with enthusiastic shoots of " Five l'Empereurr and the soldiers joined his ranks. The populace of Paris attempted to commit violence on the person of the King, as he was leaving his capital, and his faithful Gdards were forced to fire upon the assailants.—The troops who attended the person of Bonaparte in his triumphal entry. all marched with the points of their bayonets pointed downwards. Louis NVIII. quitted Paris either Sunday night, or early Monday morning; he entered Abbeville with a train of three carriages and six, without any attempt incognito, and without any military escort. Ile attempted. but was. unable from feeling, to address the multitude of people (who received him with shouts of " Vire to Roi!") from the Hotel de Prefecture where be lodged. The military in the streets, although. disposed personally to respect him equally with the in habitants, while in his presence, did not scruple to avoid their attachment to Buonaparte, by the usual cry of Vive l'Entpereur!" and by songs in his praise at their allards du Corps. It is said to have beet) one of the most touching scenes ever exhibited. _ Buonaparte turned off when be approached the Seine towards Fontainbleau, which he occupied last Sunday, being determined, as he is reported to have said, that the Palace. which had witnessed his disaster should be the first of the. Royal Palaces that should receive him in success. Bonaparte immediately after entering Paris is stated to, have issued a Proclamation, allowing 15 days for all persons: to quit France who pleased. The road from Paris to Calais. was crowded with fugitives. Many waggons had reacheci. Calais with treasure and other valuable effects. From Rouen and Havre more than 300 merchants have taken their. departure. The account in some of the Newspapers about the Duchess of Wellington having brought over the Crown Jewels of France. is erroneous ; but a considerable amount in specie was fortunately conveyed from Paris into this count!) , about ten days since, as wisely preparatory to the event which had so disastrously taken place. The Three Chances of £30,000 (exclusive of the Five Prices of 1,000 Guineas) in the Present Lottery, are held in high estimation by all ranks of Adventurers, which renders it very doubtful whether the Tickets will not be Sold previous to the Mh of Next Month ; if not, the remaining few will be extravagantly dear.
