STATESMAN, 4 LONDON: THUSSDAY, APRIL 6, 1815. The Paris Pspers still arrive regular. We have to-day Monitcurs and the other French Journals to the 4th just. They do not confirm the" important and. 'gratifying intelligence" • which the Ministerial Papers give out with such triumph--namely, that a eiv4 war his begun in France! On the contrary, all is stated to be quiet throughout the Empire ; and we have just as much reason to believe the French Papers as any other of the accounts we see coming from France. They are certainly entitled . to fully es much credit under the present Government, free as the Press has been proclaimed to be, as when the Bourbon Censors were filling them with their ab surd narratives. The regular arrival of the Mails shows that there is no disposition on the part of the Vanch Government to conceal the real state, of shirs. The most important statement in the Pape,. received to-day. is, that the EMPEROR, who still con• tinucs in Paris, announced at his Levee, on the 24 inst. that he had received 44 very favourable news fi um Vienna." What further may be the . natant of these " news " we are not informed. There can be no doubt that the Duke of ArtooutimE has (tiled in his endeavours to organize a formidable in surrection in the South. The few troops of the line 'which, us the statement runs, " had been made to Kith him," left him in the lurch when the Notional Guards' came in contact with his motley force, and joined the eagles.--The Bovesows, by these attempts to stir up the ignorant peasants to insurrection, may cause the death of a few of them ; hut whilst the whole power of France is de voted t o th e man who has so often led them to the .conquest of nations, the efforts of the BoußßoNs t• regain the Throne will only entail misery on France.
