The junction'o( Austria with the Powers who are allied for the liverance of Europe, as well as for sell-preserva tion, has placed. this Princess in avert' unfortunate and critical predicament. On'the . one . hand, she has reason to dread the effects of the irascible and furious temper of her tyrannieal Lord, and on the other, the horrible excesses: of pdpidar vengeance. It is ,confidently said, that, after • the disasters which the French had experienced in the Russian Carbpaign, when it WaS Uncertain whether the Usurper had fallen or had been taken prison&r, she .was naturally apprehensive of the . fury of the pp plane, and had endeavoured to effect an espape to Vienna, leaving Paris for St. Cloud, to avoid immediate danger, but that she was so envlicined by spies, partiCtllittly GAMBACERES, • who slept at the latter place ..on purpose to keep guard over her till the Tyrant's return, that she was obliged to relinquish all hopes of liberation.— BUONAPARTE, of course, was informed of all that had happened, and, therefoie, to prevent her from being under similar alarms, and forming; the same designs, he appointed her . REGENT, anti gave her supreme power during his absence, be fore-he entered upon the last campaign. it is fur ther stated, that she . has since - endeavoured to avail herself, of this sovereign power to favour her escape, and suddenly departed for Mayence. But, though absent, BUONAPARTE had surrounded her by so many, emissaries, that immediate informa tion was conveyed to him, and, in consequence, he gave orders to permit her to proceed, and, with his usual craft, he met her at Mayen-cc, for the pur pose of exciting a belief that: she came by his di , rection. Bnt since. the dereliction of her father from the interests of the Corsican, it may he ex pected that the latter will throw otf the mask, and that she will feel the full force of his brutal.ven geance. - By the last accounts it appears that she reached Cherbourg on the-25th.

Some say that an armistice is to take place on the I:,th instant, others on the contrary assert, that Mar quis WELLINGTON will certainly invade France as soon as Painpeluna and Sin Sebastian - surrender. Indeed, I begin to be of the latter opinion, see lag preparations already making for crossing the river since the 6th ; we bad constant arrivals of tillery and pontoons ; the cavalry alsO .contmenced approaching us ; oar present position is very formidable - ,--all .the divisions of infantry are place4l along the passes of the Pyrennees ; my di vision is stuck upon a mountain, and literally in the very"clouds ; when clear we see France as tar as Bayonne. The whole of the enemy's camps and lines, just in front of San Sebastian. (now besieged), lieon the left 'under us. To the right we have a continuance ot the stupendous reach of the Pyrenneel on the Bay of Biscay ; from oar left flank at In], the , tvhole,forms Most - grad n and interesting, sight, such as few mortals ever 'saw. The French in front of us keep very quiet ; indeed, one would suppose all hostilities ceased. However, since. SOULT'S defeat near. Painpiuna, of which you must lia,ve heard by this time the detail ot, there is little or no apprehension , that they will again attempt to attack our position.
