Its contents, if true, are most important. It is stated from Vienna, of the 3d, that official news had just been received there, that MURAT, the King of Naples, has declared for the Allies, and is on his march to join them against NAPOLEON—that the Allied Sovereigns have cl?mandell from the French the person of Bo- NAPAIITE, as a guarantee for the future maintenance of peace,—that in case of refusal they have declared they will march their whole force into France, and that Spain and Portugal have engaged to send 80,000 men into the field. This latter statement lessens our belief in the former. Spain and Portugal cannot send any such force into the field ; awl other reasons will be found in the subsequent statement' for disbelieving these accounts. The articles by this Mail make us acquainted with another act on the part of the Congress, which is as little calculated as any other of their acts to strengthen their alliance. Representations it seems have been made to the King of SWEDEN, to induce him to give up Swedish Pomerania, as Denmark has exchanged that with another Power. This has been asked in return for the cession of Norway, and has been refused by Sweden, on the plea that Norway was not ceded but conquered—and (has BERNA DOTTE and his good An , s nppeir at issue.

The Spanish and Swedish Ministers do not feel themselves aloheiized to commit their Courts to the feaFful league, withoet instructions.

Here follow reports of the state of the different European nations, and of the universal preparation for war which pervades them all. After which is in serted a letter to the French Ambassadors at Foreign Courts, stating to them that their functions had ceased on the part of the Bourbons, and desiring them to express the Emperor's assurances of his intention to maintain the peace of Europe. Then follows the The High Allies have demanded from the French the delivering up of Bonaparte, and also a sure gua. rantee for the future maintenance of peace and order. In case of refusal, they will march their whole force into France. Spain and Portugal have engaged to send 80,000 men into the field. LETTER 0? TIP EM?EROR TO TILE ALLIED [PROM ANOTHER WITTER, APRIL 3.] Last night Mr. Lombard, Secretary to the Austrian Legation at Paris, arrived here. He has brought proposals from Bonaparte, who, whenever be finds Diplomatic Agents, makes seemingly amicable pro posals, which, however, will be no where attended to. By the Treaty just concluded between Austria and Bavaria, Saltzburg remains to Bavaria. Austria pays to Bavaria three kreutzers daily per man, as long as its troops are in the Bavarian territory. REIGNS. 44 SIR, My PROTHER,—You have heard of my return to France, my entering Paris, and the depar ture of the Bourbons. These events are the result of the unanimous wish of the French nation. That dynasty, which force had imposed upon it, which knew not how to associate itself with its sentiments or its manners. The national voice called for a li berator—l came, and from the spot where I landed, the affection of my people has carried me to the be.. som of my capital. The first care of my heart is to repay so much affection by the maintenance of ho nourable tranquillity. The re-establishment of the Imperial Throne was necessary for the good and hap pines of France. My first wish is to become useful in establishing the repose of Europe. The colours of the different nations have, each in their turn, been sufficiently crowned with glory. • A more beautiful plain is now opened to the Sovereigns, and I am the first to enter it. After having shown the world the spectacle of so many great combats, it will be more delightful to know no other rivalry than that of peace—no other contest than that for the happiness of the people. France is delighted to express these sentiments; and if they are, as I trust, those of your Majesty, the general peace is assured, and justice alone will be sufficient to secure all frontiers. 44 I ans 9 &C • " Paris, April 4. 1815." It is said that representations have been made to the King of Sweden to induce him to give up Swedish Pomerania, as Denmark has exchanged that with another Power for Lauenburg. Sweden objects, however, as it is said that Norway was not ceded, but conquered, and that the Treaty of Kiel cannot avail. Several great Powers have, however, declared for the Treaty of Kiel. The publication of the abdication of Maria Louisa is expected from day to day, but has not yet taken place. It was on the 25th of March, that the new Defini tive Treaty. of Alliance between Austria, Russia i Prussia, and Great Britain, was signed, in order to put an end as soon as possible to the power of the Usurper in France. The Treaty of Chaumont is taken as the basis. The number of troops which each of the four united Powers engages to bring into the field is fixed at 150,000 men. The Portuguese Minister has ac ceded to this Treaty without reserve; the Spanish Minister reserving the approbation of his King. The Swedish Minister has sent to his Court for instruc tions. Denmark has likewise acceded to this al. liance on condition of the execution of the Treaty of Kiel. Various pieces follow the above, relative to the interruption given to the couriers. The Prince Regent's Message to the British Parliament, is also inserted, and various other articles of minor import sacs, connected with the Report.

French Papers of the 11th, 12th, 13th, and 14th inst. arrived this forenoon. The lateness of the hour at which they were received, and the great mass of important information which they bring, will pre vent our giving more at present than the substance of the articles. All is on the alert throughout the French empire. The Allies may say that it is against NAPOLEON alonethat they are to make war, but they will not be believed. Already has the national jealousy been awakened, and the flame of national and universal indignation is ready to burst forth in defence of French independence. "Itis no longer NAPOLEON (is re-echoed every where) whom they wish to overthrow, hut the nation—it is France they again wish to humiliate, but the nation is too much on the alert to permit the detested degradation. The cause of BoNAPARTE, we thus see, will not be separated from that of the French nation. The Declaration of the Allies follows these re. marks at full length. NONITEUR, APRIL 111 TELEGRAPHIC DISPATCH. TUE LIEUTENANT-GENERAL GROUCHY, TO TUE MP. MISTER A! WAR. nontelimart. April 9. at nine o'clock in the morning. The rash enterprise of the Duke d'Angouleme is' at an end. The tri-coloured flag wares through- ', out the South. The Doke d'Angoulame, pressed by my troops, whose advanced guard is at Douzere, General GM), being upon his rear, who had debourhetl by Pont St. Esprit, and upon his left flanlethe National Guards of Daophiny, has capitulated. Abandoned by all the troops of the line, he had remaining with him only 1500 men and six pieces of cannon. He was conducted under good escort to Cette, where he will be shipped off. The statements in the Dutch and Hamburgh Pa pers, that MURAT has joined the Allies, are opposed by very different accounts in the French Journals just received. It will be observed, that it is stated, on the authority of letters, whose authenticity is strongly vouched for in one instance, and doubted in another, that hostilities have already commenced be tween the army of the King of NAPLES and the Aus trians, and that several desperate engagements have taken place, in one of which the Austrians had live thousand prisoners taken. Italy is certainly in a very disturbed state. The accounts from that quar ter %ill he found of great interest. The Duke of ANGOULEME has capitulated. The French Government does not scruple to ac knowledge that their proposals to Foreign rowers have been rejected, or not permitted to reach their destination. A Report from the Minister for Fo reign Affairs says:— A very long decree is inserted in this paper for the re-organization of the National Guard. Addresses abound from all parts of France of attachment to the Emperor. The French Funds are fluctuating considerably, they left off on the 13th at 63 f. 50 c. and 870 f. (FROM THE GAZETTE HE FRANCE OF TUE 13TH.) PARIS, APRIL 13.—A letter from Calais states, that the courier Saint Romain, who had been sent to &gland by the French Government, landed again on the 11th at noon, on his return from London, with dispatches from Lord Castlereagh. He immediately continued his journey to Paris. He brings an account of Considerable embarkations of cavalry at Dover. The people wish for peace, and hope it will be preserved. Prince Lucien Bonaparte has Hot set out again as some papers have announced. " It has been reserved for the present epoch to see a society of Kings interdict, simultaneoosly, all coin munication with the Great State. The Couriers tent from Paris, on the 30th of March, to the different States, have not been allowed to reach their desti nations. One was refused by the Austrians to pass beyond Strasburgh ; another going to Italy could not proceed beyond Turin; a third, destined for Berlin, was seized at Mayence, an ill-treated by the- Prussian Commandant ; he was robbe4 of his dispatches by the Austrian General who commanded there. We are ignorant of the result of the Courier to England. While an impenetrable barrier is thrown ' between France and its Foreign Agents, it is impos. Letters from Vienna state, that the Empress and her august son are in good health. The Empress often goes to Vienna an horseback to see her son, who frequently returns her visits at Schcenbrunn.— Thersame accounts state, that the child is wonder fully intelligent, and speaks French, German, and ttallan. M. Flimbert de Plegny, formerly Prefect of tit, Vines, and who was in 1814 condemned to death for hawing defended his department, has just been ep.. pointed Prefect of Tarn and Garonne. A great number of soldiers übo had retired from the Imperial Quord ask for re-admission. The Members of the Court of Cessation ha ve taken the oath. Frenchmen cannot read too much the following article, inserted in the Mercury of the Rhine.-- They will see the frank. avowal of a Journalist, wh o supposes that Prussia, Austria, and jio lland are not sufficiently aggrandised, and that it is in the Power of France alone to do It :—" It is no longer Napo. leon that is to be overthrown—it is France :illicit they wish to destroy. This nation is, however, too much upon the alert for such an attempt. Lo rra i ne and Alsace might suit the Allies, and furnish charm. ing indemnities for Princes who are not satisfied with those allotted to them in Germany." The Count de Dames, and his two Aid-de-Camps, passed through Pau, on the sth April, under e4orc of a chief of battalion, who was ordered to coa(luct them to the frontiers.
