JULY 7.—. We this moment learn from the ensi rons of Lille, that General Lschtype has roceiv-fl by the 'Telegraph, the nears of the entrance of the Allies into l'aris, and that he seemed disposed to treat for the surrender of Lille. FRANITOST, JULY 3.—By the accounts we have received from the head-quarters of the Allied Sove reigns, the Deputies of the Provisional Government arrived at Bagenau on the Ist, before the departure of the Monarchs, and announced themselves to the ISittli•ters of the different Powers. The Ministers did trot receive them, but Commissioners were named , to 'hear their proposals, viz. :—Count Walmoden, for Anat . :is ; Count Capo d'lstria, for Russia ; and General Kiiesebrak, fur Prussia ; General Stewart was invited to be present at the conferences.— The D.pnties showed their full powers signed by M. Mignon, to whom the Provisional Go. vernment had given the portefeuille of the Fo. reign Department. They said, that the abdi cation of Bonaparte having removed the only reason which had induced the Powers to take arms, they hoped there would he no hesitation in concluding an Armistice, to confer afterwards on the means of re establishing a solid peace in Europe. The Commia. sinners answered in writing, that the Allied Powers having agreed not to treat except in concert, these proposals would he communicated to the °diets as soon as possible ; that linnapntte's abdication only placed things in the same state as in March, 1814 ; and that the Allies could see no guarantee, except in the delivering up of Bootpparl... At the same time the Deputies were informed, that a< the armies continued to advance, they could not remain in the sear, and that they would therefore be sent to C.e advanced posts. They were accordingly sent the Pine day to Basle with an escort. An elegant and affecting tribute to the memory and virtues of Mr. WHITBREAD was paid in the !louse of Commons last night by the Marquis of TATtrrucx, who, in moving for a new IVrit for a Member to serve in the present Parliament for the town of Bedford, in the room of Mr. W., was so much affected by the melancholy reflection of the loss lie had sustained by the death of his friend, that he could scarcely give utterance to his feelings. The long and close intimacy which subsisted between Mr. WHITBREAD and the late Duke of 13elarono, as well as the present Duke and the other branches of the family, were of such a nature as must render the loss of their revered friend an event distressing to these Noble Personages, as well as to the country, in the highest degree. The Members of the [louse of Commons, without exception, sensibly partook of the feelings and sentiments expressed by the Noble Marquis ; and the conduct of Mr. WIL. BERFORCE and the CHANCELLOR of the Exerts:twee, on this occasion, was highly honourable to them.— The uniform candour always shown by Mr. IVIIIT. BREAD to his opponents in the most impassioned de bates, must have disarmed all who have a particle of liberal sentiment of any lurking portion of hostility against the illustrious deceased, and with the excep tion of a few senseless and slanderous scribblers, ho would deprive the world of the strength of that reason which enlightened wherever it was heard, and the purity of that integrity which will remain unsul- Feil to the last in spite of such malignant efforts, tie euate and the country are of one opinion on the sul , ject of the virtues we have lost.

The Duke of York took the Chair nt one o'clock. Mr. Wit.una suttee stated shortly the object of the Meeting. It sometimes h:.ppero.d that the victories of our eanics 'Hided to the glory of the British arms, with out being attemled %vitt' consequences which could be said to compensa te for be loss with w hie!' they were at tended ; but the Vortory of Waterloo had nut merely been productive of gin: y, but also of the most im portant re,elts ryr the ieterests of this country vied of Eurov.. The widows and orphans nt those brave men who had conferred such lustre on the British arms, had the highest claim to the affection arid gra titude of their country ; for it might be said, that they had lint merely added to the niatioual gloy, but also to the comfort and security of every member of the community.—[Applayse.]--fie should only be wasting time in occupying any more of their atten tion, and he therefore concluded with moving the first Reso.lutiou---" That a general Subscription be en tered boo for the special Relief of the Relatibus of the Soldiers of rho British Army, under the command of the Doke of Wellington, who fell in the Battle of Vaterion, Scr. and that the subscriptions so raised should be consolidated into one Fund with those ob• tamed in the City of London." Sty. On a suggestion by a Gentlemitt, that the Ge: man Legion onight to he iricindoil in the Resolution, Mr. ‘VtLeEnroncr observed, that he considered the German Legion, Banoveriatis, cod Belgians, as really part of the British army. Mr. 110\%eitorT said, he believed that when the subscriptions ero begun in the City, the British suf ferers were alone thought of ; but whether all those who were serving uutlFrr the Duke of Wellington were to be considered as making a part of the British Army, coil should, on a fair constructien, be in. eluded wider the Resolutions, was a matter for after determination. lie hoped that so meets wool(' lie raised by subscription, us to he enough not only for our own sufferers, but also for the lianoscriani and ethers. AI r. Ross thought this matter might he ntlidsted with the concurrence of the Cit v Coinmi'tee. Mr. Rowcaorr thought it was hardly possible there conld he difficulty ns to th e technical meaning of the British Army ; hut this wa n matter for the deteimittntion of the Duke of NVeilingtoit. A Ge n tle man ohservetl, that tho Gerinitt Legion was at much a part of the Biiikh Army as the Guards. Th e it , :oltrion was then put and unanimously .4reed Mr. Wit.acttronce then propos-pi] another Re ontiiiiios••••••" Thht it he recommended to the Com mittee to confer w ith th e Committee of the City of I. , inloti, on the propriety of m 1,10414 some pt:1111111 of Ili , . Soh.criptions to the relief of the Prubsiiin suir,rer4.9. Mr. Rowcuovt observe", that in the City the only sufferers whom they thought of relieving were the British; and such w,ts the number of those who had claims on them under that title, that he feared they would be found equal to all the attempts cf their munificence or their ambition. %Vilest the City sub scriptions were firs► proposed, the Prussian Charge d'Affaires waited on him with a letter from Nlarstial Blucher, in which he stated that he had been en gaged in eight battles and a number of sieges, &r. and that for till this he had paid the price of tit.,ooo men. Be then (old the Charge d'Affaires, that at present it was impossible to devote any part of the subscriptions to the relief of the Prussians—.that they ought to do all they could in Prussia fur their poor people, and when they had done all they might then crone again, and a separate subscription would be entered into in this country—that•if a separate sub. scription could not be raised, the House of Com mots could take their claims into consideration, and in the great concerns of this nation a hundred thou• sand pouods or two were next to nothing. Ile con ceived, that without intruding on the present sub scriptions some!hing might be done for the Pru , ,iians. Oar first duty, howeser, was, to look after our pen. ple at home—they might trust to another sutucrip tins), or to Parlinment, for the Prussians ; and all these means would surety not fail. Gen!le.nen must wait with more patience till they saw what could be done in the remote dependencies of the Empire, where the fuelitig% were warmer than ours, as they were ripened under a warmer sun. When in [tuba they heard of our suf f erings, he was sure they_would not desert us. SPURTING INTE L LIGE VUP. NEWMARKET JULY MEETING. TUESDAY, JOLT 11.

RlNES.—Accounts have been received from Carthia gene of the defeat of the Algerine fleet by the Ame rican squadron under Commodore DEcArutt. action which took place on the 20th of June, lasted two hours. The Algerine frigate Metoura, 4) guns, is taken, and carried into Carthagena. She was commanded by. the Admiral of Algiers, who was killed. Next morning, between one and two o'clock, another Algerine frigate was driven on shore by the Americans, near St. Xavier, three leagues to the east of Carthagena. The crew escaped on shore, and were pursued by the Spanish peasants, who had taken sonic of them when the accounts came away. A corvette was chased, and would probably be taken. The intercourse is now, we understand, perfectly re-established between this country and the neigh. bouring parts of the Continent, and notice to this effect was given ) esterday at the Po s t-offi ce . An additional Batch of Knights Commanders of the Bath is expected to make its appearance immedi. itchy, in which will be included all the Generals a n d Officers commanding Be igades at the Battle of Water loo. !
