When Mr. Play-fair and I left, I was very anxious to know the whole that the Italian had told him. Mr. P. then informed me, that there was a plot to assas siaate the Bourbons, and that Buonaparte would raise his standard in Italy, and would End plenty of followers; that the Italian had told. hint Buonaparte's cypher and kt.‘. He then spewed rue the paper covered with silk, which I had seen the Italian give him; it waa a table of letters curiously dis posed. Mr. Mayfair then gave it me, with another paper which he said was Buonaparte's address to Frenchmen in cypher, and requested that I would that evening take a con• rect copy of both, as he most return theta next day (I think-) to Caraman. Both these I copied, and our jointly decypher ing it by the key -words Carman had told him, we found it to contain an address to the French. Caraman was a dark middle-aged thin man.

On the Intt) instant I dined with Mr. Playfair and an • Italian named Caraman.

Mr. p. and Caraman spoke French, and as I know try little of that language, I only caught a word sometimes. Buonaparte was often mentioned The Italian spoke a great deal. Mr. P. sail little, hut was seemingly vet.% attentive, rind much struck with what the man told him, and now and then turning to me, said, "vety important information in , ritcd !"
