L , We stepped the Press yesterday to announce the la siva' of Mr. 'mimeo, the Messenger, with dis iPmches from the Karl n 4 Latinists's at Paris• Basses.. lek Faris at three o'clock en [Monday morning t anritmal; at half-past debt, on Wednesday swernieg i and railed from thence in the Flory gun.brig, from which he landed at Deal between dine and four o'clock in the afternoon of the sane day. After waiting upon the Port Admiral, Mr. Basttaco proceeded in a chaise and four eit London, where he arrived at es* o'clock last morning, having completed his journey from Paris to Deal in forty-eight hours, a dares of speed unexampled in diplomatic history. Odi his arrival in London, Mr. Bamtco went so the Tesasign O&ce, in Downing-street, and, taking up a Messenger there, proceeded to Sir Fear:cis VlN cant's, froth whence the dispatches were sent by the second Mesas:nor to Lord Gessett.t.x's. TM last +receding Messenger from the Earl of LACI DIRD ALL arrived cm Saturday, tke 23d 'of Au gust ; and the long interval which succeeded, without any accounts from his Lordship, has been accounted for, by supposing that the French Government wished to procrastinate, until it !tad learned the determination of the Emperor et Rout a upon the Treaty signed by M. 'YOU BIM at Paris, and that consequently until then his Lord ship could have nothing important to esponsueicate. From the arrival of bit. BASILMO, therefore, it is concluded positively, that the French Government had learned the determination of Russia, before his departure from Paris, and that the dispatches con tain intelligence to that 'flea. Indeed, we did not want this evideqce to prove that the sentiments of the Emperor of RUSSIA upon the subjea must be some time known to BON•P A ITS. We have re ceived 7hr Leydea Gazette, of the 23ch ult. contain. ing an article dated Berlin, the 19th, which is de cisive of this question. It states, that M. D'Ousest. arrived at St. Petersburgh in the beginning of the month, we believe the 6th, and immediately deli vered the Treaty signed by him at Paris, which was without delay taken into consideration by a Grand Council of State. The result of the Coun cil is not noticed ; but the Berlin article adds, that subsequent to the arrival of D'Ouaaae, the Maltese Chevalier, Geosnowsee, set out from St. Peters burgls, and passed through Berlin on the 18th, on his way to Paris, where he must have arrived some diyi previous to Mr. B/W I !CO'S departure from that city. Of the Emperor of Russia's determi nation we are not informed ; but whatever it may have . lseen, we have the pleasure to think, that he was not taken by surprise, as the moment our Go vernment was informed of the treaty being signed at Paris, they dispatched two Messengers to St. Fe tersburgh, one by sea, and the other by land ; the former of whom arrived in ten days, and returned to this cr-;ntry on Saturday week. We understand, the dispatches which he brought in answer to our communication, contained strong assurances, that the Emperor would nes ratify the treaty. On the other hand, however, it ass reported yesterday, that it had adlually received his ratification. This ru mour did not teceive much credit, and a repast hav ing been set on loot of the arrival of a second Mes senger, the funds experienced, in consequer.ce. a considerable flultuation. The (MAIM opened at 61 premium, being a rise of I per cent. and in this situation it remained the greater pelt of the wont ing ; but some large purchases of stock having been made about one o'clock, a belief gained f round, that the dispatches brought by Mr. Bast Lico were of a favourable nature, and tke thenrann rose immediately to $..

We find, however, that it is only a very imperfeB sketch of an article in the Hamburgh Cos reyonelenten, and although it may not be authentic, it will be found interesting. It is as follows t— ,' It is reported, that in the negotiations bet .veen England and France, the former power has insisted on the stipulation, that both stall retain what they atlually possess at the mome.. , of the conclusion of a peace, exce,pting that the German dominions of His Britannic 111,1j..,ty shah be restored; but to this obj:fliuns A hare been made by France.

The French Plenipotentiaries, however. continued to negotiate till the eight of the 10th ; but, on the 1 1 th, during the whole day, Lind Lauder dale was in readiness to depart, and repeal.* demanded his passports. It Iva , not tiU dse noon of the 11th, that asy hot.* of accusegsdatips matters appeared. The people of Paris 11110011 themselves with the continued gay of Lord Lauder dale ; and during the whale of yesterday, they trusted to the restoration of a blessing which they already thought is their possession, and which they are extremely loth to low, after their hopes had been so highly exalted. " The Exchange, on the 1 tth, felt the conse quences of the equivocal state of the negotiation.

The Hotel which he frequented was not far distant from Mr. BASIL ico's lodgings. Some late French papers have been received by Government, but with the ex ception of Janomes escape, they contain, we under stand, nothing of importance. The Veteran, Ja aomx's ship, was chaced two days by the Glaretear, but unfortunately escaped into L'Orient. We have received, by the last Leeward Island Packet, letters and papers from Barbedoes, to the 9th July, stating, that ignoble BOP • r art's squa dron had taken the defenceleu island of Montserrat. The contents are given in the first page of this paper. We must observe, that the French squadron sailed from Martinique in two or three divisions, previous to the Sd July, and was pursued clear of the West Indies, standing North. by Admiral Comta.us a, on the 7th. Upon the first appearance of the French, there was a report of their having captured St. Kitts, Nevis, and Montserrat. The account in the Barba does Paper appears to be a repetition of that report. .....malg..•• We have already announced the arrival of a Ley- Jen Gazette of the *9th. In addition to the Betlin article which we have noticed, it contains several interesting particulars, chiefly horn Paris, to the 25th. They state that BOhAPAIITE, at that date, still remained at Rambouil!et, and that orders had been definitively issued for the return of the several corps of the Grand Army to attend the Triumphal Fires in that city, at the end of September. Three camps have been traced out for their recepti m, one at Meudon, one at Charenton, and one at St. Denis. lhe fist corps cf troops from Germany, including Ithe 30th, 93d, and 39th regiments, entered Paris on die 2ga and 23a, where they were received with every possible demonstration of :oy.
