A pretty good carimsLof the assurances that this fellow is a harm -I?s4 diameter, who quarrelled with his brother "./Nicholas, . or Napoleon, on account of his abhor rence at !iis conduct during the first period of his usurpation. It is to be hoped, that this scoun during his abode in this country, was so vi gilantly.watched, that be was not able to' effect the tnischievolfs purposes for which he came here, at the time of his pretended quarrel. The- . Flemish Mail, which arrived late yesterday .evening, *takes mention of a circumstance likely to: give the rebels much uneasiness. The Clergy of Paris have refused to give the Usurper their countenance in any degree. They are sensible of the importance of the oath of (i'legiance which they have taken to their lawful Sovereign ; and their example probably .will not appeal in vain to the consciences of their countrymen. Yesterday morning Lord Viscount CASTLEREAG tt had a long audience of the PRINCE REGENT at Carlton-honse. Lord CASTLEUEAGII will give . a grand dinner to-morrow. The Royalists arrive in numbers frorn,Franee, order to proceed to Ostend, to join t he King's forces.

The following is an Extract of a Letter received yesterday ,from Calais, ‘thich we consider means to express inure than meets the eye : Calais, Sunday, May 14, 1815. Nfortier passed here a few days ago on a tour of inspection. Hie inade such a cold speech to the military, that they do not hot-At:what to make of it, but appear evidently displeased: Ihe.sabstauce of it was—" Every Frenchman ought to he usi fill to his country; and in case of danger;the military espe'cially. I have served Louis, and I glory in it.

(From a Horning Paper.)—lf we turn our views to the French frontiers, where a more tremendous conflict is on the very eye• of commencing, we shall see reason to believe that a very short period Will elapse before the great blow will he struck. We, however, doubt whether it is likely to be so soon as next week ; since it is evidently the object of all to 'move forward on one great preconcerted plan, probably the plan of the Duke of Wet-LANc- TON, received and discussed in a grand Council of 'War at Vienna on the 19th ult. Since that pe•• "riod, another attempt at •negociation with Austria has been made, and has tailed. The present • mail affords us assurance of that highly satisfac tory fact. The Sovereign, however, were not expected to leave Vienna before the 15th inst.; nor would their head-quarters be fixed at Frankfort before to-morrow. Besides the Rassians that have already arrived in the neighbourhood of the Rhine, an army of 85,000 is in march from •Gallicia. - The Austrian- army will in gs eat part have reached - the Rhine by this day. ; They iire preceded by the Bavarians, 66,000 strong, avhose Commander, Prince WREDE, left Augs bittg to: take the command on the 2d inst. Not withstanding all the arts of BtioNarattfE, aided by the efforts of a traitor named STOFFEL, to de tach the Swiss troops in France front their du ty, these brave men have resolutely adhered to it:s and site to form part of the army of the C on f e deration, which is assembling on the fron tiers to watch and prevent the projects which the ,F.ilench Rebels may entertain for getting posses "Siot of Geneva, or other parts of . the Swiss ter ritory. The Prince Royal of ‘VtL.e.TEmßur i n, who difitinguished himself so much in the last cam paign, is to have tinder hiS command not only the whole \Vurtentberg force, but also an Austrian corps of 7 or MO men. .• • b •• Yesterday tiei:gr her MAJEST.''

'Sin—The period not having yet arrived, when thelic Service will admit of the disembodying of the Regiment under y.pur command, I ant to signify to you his Royal Highness the Prince Regent's pleasure, that those Volunteers and Substi tutes now serving therein, who have completed their period of Five Years Service, shall he discharged at the following periods, and under the following regulations, viz.:- - One fourth on the 10th cf May next; Another fourth on the iotis of .tune; Another fourth on the 10th of Jule; and Another fourth on the 10th of 'August: And they are to be discharged in the order in which theymay have been enrolled, commencing, with those who have heen lon s• est in the servi,e.

The Public, we are assured, will hear with plea sure, that the most alarrnin symptoms of Mr. )RUBLE'S indisposition have subsided, and con sequently, though not out of danger, affords stronger hopes of recovery. He was evidently better, we understand, yesterday morning, but re mained stationary during the rev - of the day. Mrs. SIDDONS has attended him since the first serious alarm, and has continued in his house ever since. • Mr. and Mrs. C. KEMBLE concluded their en g'agement at the Plymouth Dock Theatre on Tuesday last, with the perlottnance of Handet and Ophelia. We inserted a letter, signed " PomAcus," in this Paper on Wednesday, respecting A SWORD presented by the Corporation of London to a Military Officer for eminent services to his coun try, and ..which had been the day before sold by Mr. Itoßtxs, of Covent-Garden. AS the follow ing article is stated to come from authority,.we deem it our duty to insert it, just observing that the name of the Officer was not mentioned by Mr. ROBINS, or in this Paper . :— " Shortly after the taking of Buenos Ayres, " the City of London voted their Thanks and a " Sword, value 200 guineas, to Lortl BEREsFoRD. "-In consequence of this vote, a sword was or " tiered of a Mr. A. which, when finished, was " thought by the City to be so ill execnted, and " so inferior to what was their wish to present to his Lordship, that it . was returned upon Mr. " A.'s hands, and another ordered elsewhere-, " which was presented to Lord I3EROSFORD, and " which is now in his possession. The sword " lately sold is that which was returned to ME..A." SurctnE.—We are sorry to learn that arespect-_ able Bookseller, in the neighbourhood of Soho square, shot himself yesterday, and died Imme diately.. Whilst the French rebels are straining every nerve to procure signatures to their jacobinical federation of the Fanxbour St. Antoine, the Ad dress of the loyal and independent Livel:g . of Lon don, which lies at the London Tavern and Lon don Coffee-house, obtains daily some hundreds of voluntary signatures. This being the last day of its remainin g open, we have no doubt the num bers will be greater than on any preceding. day. .The two late abortive attempts to prOcure some thing like respectable Meeting's ina ..vour of 800- NAPARTE: at tVestminstel' and in the Borough, afford only additional motives to those who pos sess the spirit of Englishmen, to declare their ab horrence of j aco hi n i stu .and sedition, by subscrib ing a loyal and independent Address.

With respect to the other points referred to by the Noble Earl, he was averse from entering into any thing like a discussion at the present moment ; With regard to the overture, he had said it was decided that no steps . should be taken in consequence of it. As to what, respected the King . of France, no Act of Aceess'ion on Isis part had been received by this country ; and as to -the extent' of thit Sove reign's: itieans.v.nti reference could he made to them, ,sp tfp ,•;79 render that consideration any grnind for farther delay. • Indeed, lie believed there were scVerai Who thought there had already been trio much delay . in the decis'ion— [The Noble Earl here being about to sit-down; Earl Grey reminded him of his question as to the proceedings at the Congrcss.]--As to the,pro eeedings,at the Congress, the Noble Earl observ ed, that until ['hey were reduced to the form of a Treaty, he should not be enabled to lay any mes sage on the subject before the House.
