LONDON: TUURSDAY, ZVn 1, 1315. • The French Papers of Monday last (the 29th) &deed this morning. IVe shall subjoin their prin. tiipal contents. They furnish little news, except I Bulletin aanonce of a victory by Monsc over the Austrians at Ancona, but they afford interesting matter for reflection ; and some articles, which will go far to OW* the utter falsehood of the statements confidently put forth in this country relative to the French Emperor; and what it of still gteater im portance, if men corld see it, the folly and the hope lessness callus attempts making, with the aid of the Bri tish Government, to brings') France the horrors of a evil war. In regard to the French Emperorhimself, the safety and stability of his Government may be pretty well inferred from the personal safety which be moms to possess, and of which he appears so well 'mend, even iA the midst of the insurrections which Weareteld have broken oat, that it is officially de tiered any and every Frenchman who has a petition to present may now approach the throne, and address himself direct to the Sovereign,—not be soder the necessity of entrusting the expression of his wantsor sentiments to, perhaps, some courtly sycophant, who may be interested in shutting up their passage to the royal ear—to men who may be Rite the heathen gods—have ears and hear not, eyes old cannot see. NArot.tost thus shows that be is out afraid of the daggers of the aes t assin, and that he can listen, not by proxy, to the voice of his people. Whether he is disposed to obey that voice, which it is certainly his interest to respect, is another question. This is certainly the way to make himself acquainted with his people, and all their mitts and wishes. But our attention is still more strongly directed to the fate of that wised of expeditions, which we are given to understand went from this country to IA Vendee, to enable the hands of the agents of insurrection there to renew the hor. rid scenes of devastation and slaughter which con stitetes the bloodiest picture in the eventful history of the Frooth Revelation. Ca. it be that any civilized Government, without any 'declaration of war, nay, whilst it professed peace, and a desire to see social order immersed among nations as well as indi viduals, could openly show so little of morality is its polity, as to endeavour, in the face of iternise, to excite a civil war in a neiehbour iug State, to area sobjeets against their Government, and he the cause of blood being shed in ass attempt, which every one who has reason could perceive to he hopeless I What better cause of hostility, of endless hostility, between nations.—stations which should be friends, and go hand in hand in the improvement of the human species, and in proving to the world the benefits of virtue and refinement—what more justi fiable mow of war, the bitter source o(all oar miss. rin e ran Frusta-have, than this endesesser to give her op a prey to the mole dreadful of dissensions— to teach and urge her own children to tear her very vitals ? What more justifiable ground than this, and the intention avowed in the Prussian Proclamation to divide France among its conquerors, like Saxony and Poland, can the military power of that country Lave for overrunning other States, and making them the scene of war and all its calamities ? Let us pass from the moral guilt of this act, which we see has been committed, and bid the Reader lift up his hands sad wonder, not at its failure, but at the folly of squandering away thousands of pounds, wrung from the hands of a much suffering people, to furnish the Imperial army of NAPOLEON with mili tary stores, and the requisites of which we are told be was so very much in want. The toss of enAtterxe, the head of the revolters, who was killed at the first discharge, is a death-blow to the hopes of the insurrectionists. His father was shale the old La Vendee war. We cannot say 'all that ought to be said on this subject, and shall pro ceed to give our extract s : —:" PALM, MAX 29.—Yesterday, after Mass, his Ma jesty reviewed a body of '25,000 troops, cavalry, in fantry, and artillery. Prince Jerome arrived at Paris on the 27th. . The Duke of Ragusa (Niartnont) is expected daily at Basle, where his house is prepared for him. Some Austrian Officers presented themselves lately *Schaffhausen, to demand permission for a body of troops to pees, which was refused. • By • 'sew arrangement, as to the right of Petition, every ifeelelekan , can now approach the throne, ad-, Owl kilossif direct to ail Sovereign, know as aeon es possible the fate of his Petition, and the degree*, lope which he may encourage. LTOXI, MAT 264.--A Bulletin was affixed to our *schene yesterday, communicating the pleasing in., telligetsce that Kin Joachim bad obtained a victory over the Austrians at Almon*. Aspens; M 25. We have learnt with FRO , I - yr* - THE STAITSMAN. sai ',fact i itu, that the Emperor has formed" a beantiM army, called the Army of the Loire. Count La marque will , command it. Coltish have landed arms and inattrreetlimal aunts in IA Vendee, and unless precautionary re-' sources are adopted, they will re-illumine the flames of civil discord there, with all its attendant horrors. In consequence, General Travot having learnt the precise spot where the English were employed in landing arms, &c. to Laroche Jacquelin, who had with him upwards of 5000 men, marched against them with about 1200 National Guards. lie at tacked them, and defeated them, leaving three hundred dead on the Field, including a person of the name of Charette, and obtained possession of the Lhok lading of the English squadron, consisting of two frigates and two sloops of mar, being upwards of four thousand English muskets, and six hundred barrels of powder. The Insurgents were completely dispersed, and have not since been heard of. VIENNA, MAY it—King Joachim has quitted Ancona, and has retreated on La Pointe. BEacix, MAT 16.—There is a great agitation in Poland. A Russian Officer, of high rank, has been sent to Siberia as a traitor, and for having been is correspondence with Polish discOntents. It is said that Sweden will join the Good AM r ance; but it is impossible that Bernadotte can do so in good earnest. and Atlas transports, with troops on board, and parted from them two days after sailing. The Spencer spoke, about 120 miles west of Scilly, the Recovery, from South Georgia, for London, with •300 tons of oil ; out about seven weeks from St. Helena, where she left '2O vessels waiting for con voy to England. His Majesty's ship Perseus ar rived at Halifax on the 25th of April, with an ac count of Borrxemexx having landed in France. The certainty of the speedy commencement of hostilities on the Northern frontiers of France, gave rise yesterday (in the absence of real intelligence) to a report of a battle having actually been fought, in which the French were defeated with the loss of twelve or thirteen thousand men. No such ad sice, however, has been received by Government. — Another report, of a different nature, also obtained circulation yesterday, bat with no better founda tion. It was stated that Government had re ceived such intelligence as had induced them to suspend the contracts for clothing, victual ling, Ste. but we find that no such measure bestehen place. Ministers have resolved not to permit the slightest relaxation, in any department, of the neces sary preparations for war ; aud, we understand, that as soon as the Militia Bill shall have passed both Houses, the whole of the militia force will be called out and embodied, agreeably to the usualipractice. The following paragraph from the Hamburgh Car respanderacn acquaints us with the terms of the sub sidies which our Government has agreed to give to Wirtemberg:-- " Ilmanuacu, MAY 19.—According to accounts from Wirtemberg, the King of that country will re ceive from the British Government 1 11. 2s. sterling for each man of the number of '29,000, which his Majesty has bound himself to brin into the field against the common enemy. These oyments cam meoce with the Ist of April, and are to continue for one year, in equal monthly instalments." ' According to late advice, received yesterday from China, matters bail been arranged between the British and the Chinese Government. A long article is inserted from Epinal, of the 14th May, in uhich it appears, that the Prefect of the Vosges has re-published a Proclamation of Grauer, the Prussian Governor of Berg, in which Procla mation, it is declared, that the Impious French na tion is no longer to be 'offered to exist, bet is to follow the fate of Saxony, its ally, and is to be di• Tided amongst the Allied Monarchs. The following is quoted as an extract from the Prussian Proclama tion : " It was of no importance whether the Royal fa.) tally of Saxony was guilty or innocent, the people must safer for the faults of their Ring. Saxony was necessary to us. We have no right to par outaelve the expeoce of the war, and we are thus indemnified for a* many sacrifices which we hale made for up• I wards of 25 years." Count Grouchy commands all the cavalry. The ! Countess has given 4000 francs towards the equip• meat of the National Guards. Hamburgh and Corunna Mails arrived this fore. noon. The state of France cannot be acceeetely judged from any thing we have through these than. nets. If we can believe the information in the Papers thus furnithild, BoNAPAItite has returned to France for very little purpose. The Hamburgh intelligence represents the public mind in Freuce as net at an disposed to support- NAPOLEON. It is even said that Fovea's has made overtures for his OWli account, expressing a disposi. tion to abandon his present master; and that Bona- PARTE has caused frigates to be fitted out in several ports, with the view of thereby seeking, in case of need, •n asylum in America. It seems his frequent conferences with the American Ambassadors give rise to this conjecture—and it is „sagaciously re marked, that these conferences can relate to nothing but this dernier scheme, which proves the desperate state of " the usurper's of It is further stated, in proof of this, from Barcelona, that the tricoloured standard has been banished from Mar. seilles, all but from " a Mae part" (which we au,- poet is that valuable little part called the garriron), /'where the tri.coloored flag is still flying, sopported by the troops of Napot.sow, who ate said to lie " not above 200 in all," against the whole of the po• potation of Marseilles and the country people, who keep up a constant fire upon " the rebels ;" and that like people in the frontier provinces all call out for the Bounnows, and will take up arms for nobody else. This intelligence, however, from Marseillei is so old as the beginning of last month, and that city, though some time ago declared in a state of siege, has ceased to be mentioned in the French Papers as / among the disaffected places. From Vienna we have articles in the Hambergb Journals, stating that the Emperors of AUSTMA and RUSSIA are to repair to the armies together about the 27th. Meantime it is stated the " most important affairs are aegeeiating bete (Vienna), jest at the clew of Congress ;" and the marching of troops to the Rhine is still announced. We lately stated, that the Bloomsbury and Inns of Quirt Association had offered their services to Government. To this offer Government have an swered, that 46 though fully sensible of the zeal. loyalty, and public spirit which dictated the offer of service, it is not thee& at present necessary by Go. cerement to accept such offer." Dr. Runde°, the Dean of Peterborough, has in. formed Mr. Lixo.tne, a Romisb Priest, who has itiguatited the Protestant Church, as a 46 new Church," that unless he shall show by argument § 46 that the stractor• of the Church of England and lboleaterials of which it is composed, are new a n d Modern," he will be summoned to answer for his brinslve demeanour in Westminster Ball. It appears from ifswates's Pleas of the flown, that the wor ds , • es* ledktable.

The latter of these statements we can well eredit, but we have no belief whatever to give to the (Drew. No people on earth have less of nationality than the Brabanters—they know not what the lore of country is—their country has scarcely ever been in t h eir lawn keeping, and they invariably side with the strongsst— hence their predilection for French protection. It is stated from Vienna, of the 18th inst. that " According to the latest accounts from Italy the tjti dam of Ancona, consisting of 3000 men, hid oirerett to capitulate on the condition of being attowall to depart with arms and baggage.
