THE NATIONAL RFMISTER. evening pub ication. Adopted by-some, it has been reftrted by others, chiefly on the ground that NAPOLEON'S authority Was too yell); to allow him to have recourse to pretended conspiracies to obtain some iinportant . objeet. To 'hose who 'have -.ta , red tl,is objection we may reply. that they forget they at riblited some of the ea' ly plots agAttst the 'Same indi vidual to his own contrivance, so that eight tears ago they did not deem his authority ‘• too young," to allow of his creating false conspiracies to attain hie en(ls. However. as. the arrivals from the Continent have brcught -no confirma tion or refutation of our - surmise, we shall let it test for the present, and content ourselves with giving the following par ticulars which trave appeared in some. of the daily pipers " A Gentleman has art ived in town from the French coa-t. ,vrhichhe Oft on Tuesday last; he states, that all intercourse between Paris and the coast hati•heen interdicted forseveial days—that • n the 25th and 26th of October the barriers of Paris were slut ; and that late. in the eyening..of, the A6lll, the three disaffected Generale were carried to the Bois de 'Boulogne, and shot. None i)ut military were present, and the execution was conducted With the greatest privacy.— NAL LETT is said to hav - e.excliaint;d, before be was shot--; " We ate not the last of the Romans !" , : • Now who this Gentleman is, we are not informed. If none. ut . military were present at Ahe execution. %vial , h was conducted with the greatest - wivacy,, we hardly think 7ny : account of L LETT'S last WQ,ds would hate trans! fired We much doubt .th•tt the Generals were execwed on the .26th. I. M Oat y • Commission was apeoi oted, to try, them : it mt t eon the 25th, and heard the charges and interrogatories Teed. As their arrest and intended trial were made so public, their execution would, we should think, have been, made .equally public, th; ugh, the particulars of the trial might have been kept secret. New; Pipers have arrived of two days later date than the report of their execution on the evening of the •26th, and these are totally silent upon,tbe subject. 7 - . • • The. letters by the Cottenburgh Mail were delivered from the Post Office.on Friday.. i .They - contair, advises from .St. Prtecsburgh . to the 16th, and f'om Gnttenburgh to the Bth ult e Levers from the Russian capital announce the important fart of the junction of, the.

Confidential letters mention, that botb the Court and pri ,:ite inclividu.ds at St Petersburgh, continue in the prudept employment of packing up their effects. , Others contain a few particulars regarding the situation of things in t!.!e neighbourhood ~f Moscow,„and, it i!.said, that itlrlioligh extensive accommodations for ihe, military were preserved from the flames within that city, the.Gratid Army is not pertnittetl to be in, cantonments within the walls, but is encamped on the open ground, in order to prepare the sol dyers for the severktv of a Russian winter. The superb fur niture of the nobility is often seen in the. streets, used at the common mess of the privates, And rich and ornamented ves , eis are employed in culinary utensils, , The most interesting fact is, rerhaps, that the army of UTUSIIFF is rendered so fot midable, both, by its position 'and its reinforcements, that RUONA PA ILTE ,bo . hitherto ma , Vested no intention of dis.lodging is * by , ha zactlinK a general ;action; but it is believed that he must ; risk a battle, as the only ma" of keeping open his conunnpication: with the §outh.
