With far inferior claims to respect and far greater to hate ; has Buitnaearte now displayed equal daring. lie has selected among nations that with whom he never exchanged any thing but tokens of the bittetest enmity, and has thrown himself upon her magnanimity! The official accounts of this momentous event, in the French Papers, ale more cir cumstantial than the brief and general statement transmitted by Fouche to Lord Castlereagh. It appears that Napoleon finding it impossible to elude the vigilance of our cruisers. as eleven British vessels blockaded the port of Rochefort sine the Ist inst. went on board one of the ft ?gates intend ed to convey him to the United States, and se n ' General Bertrand to the fit itish Commander; Capt. Maitland of the Bellerophon to ask a free passage. The reply was such as he might haire expected. Far from granting the object of the request, Capt. Maitland frankly stated, that lie would at tack the two frigates the moment they should attempt to get out. Ile added, however, that if Napoleon would repair on board his ship, he would receive him with all kind of con , sideration ; that he would answer for his person; and world conduct him to England. This offer, whit!), the French Paper says did not exactly square with the views of the Ex , Emperor, Napoleon eagerly accepted. In fact, it fulfilled the wish which at the moment of his second abdication he had transmitted to onr Goverment, and which had then been rejected—to be allowed to retire to this country. Ile instantly declared that he would prefer delivering himself up to the honour of the English to every thing else; and tha besides, he did not wish to risk the lives of the crews of th tato frigates, in an attempt to escape in spite of the vigilance of thecruisers. Shortly after he went on board a small vessel, accompanied by some officers of his suite, and re paired on board Capt. Maitland's ship. Such are the lead ing particulars given in the French Papers; and the train fact is fully confirmed by the short statement in the Extra.; ordinary Gatettc. The Bellerophon; with Napoleon on board, has probably ere now entered some of our ports ; and that thdn, whose hostility so long threatened the national existence and prosperity of England, is now reduced to bless the inutility of his efforts, which left her the power of shel , tering his guilty head. The preparation of the state monis in the Tower, for the reception of a prisoner of distinction, are now nearly corn pleated : superb carpets have been laid; and silk curtains put to the windows.
