The town of Placentia„ Seconding the zeal of the Sub-Prefect and the Mayor, has sbewn its good will by the aid of every* thing which it has offered to our brave defenders.

THE" FRINCII PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.] PARIS, FEB. 17.—T0 - -slay,, atone o'clock, the Russian General Alsittlien, mid two other Gene rals taken prisoners in the late battles, entered Paris on horseback by the barrier of date Saint Martin, escorted by son►c gens d'artnes.'' They wire all in uniform; one of them is deedrated with several orders. From the entrance of the.suburb to - Place Ven. dome, they zdightecl, they were followed by all im meme crow(:, Which continually made the air re sound with cries of " aive t'Entper . eur !" 'The_ tops of the houseS, situated upon the 13ontevi - Fds,. and in Castiglione -street, were filled with people. The public joy was manifested in the most ex pressive manner, but it had nothing uncivil in it towards the prisoners. Frenchmen triumph over their enemies, and know how to respect the Con quered. After having passed some moments with the Etat-Major-General of the place, the • enemy's Generals went into a carriage, and set out fur their destination._. The principal Places of the different Mit'yoral ties, at this moment," present a. spectacle well . eal ciliated to interest the friends of humanity. There are seen arrive from morning till night carriages or porters laden'with voluntary gifts, offere' . by citizens of all classes. Some send beds complete, others shirts,_ handkerchiefs, stockings, caps, in short every article which an be useful to the sick or to the wounded. In many Houses the women and young girls abandon their usual employment to make bandages and lint. The sums of money that have. been depositcdior the same purpose are already very considerable. Every one has hastened to bring his offering. Persons who live by the labour of their hands, and who are scarcely above want, have deprived themselves of many necessary things to dedicate them to the service of suffering humanity. They expect no other recompence than that heartfelt a tisfaCtion which accompanies virtuous actions. They now that their brethern, their defenders, are in want, and they fly to theft assistance. , •. It benevolence is a duty, it is especially so when it is exercised towards those brave warriors who shed their blood in a cause so just as that which we maintain. We are threatened by enemies who wish to de prive us of all that is dear to us. The Cannon no longer thtwders- on a foreign land—blood • flows in our towns and in our fields. It is not to de liver some of our provinces only; ;t is, to save the country itself, the bosom of which is torn by cruel enemies ; it is to defend our hearths, our wives, our children ; it is to prevent a stranger from treating us as an enslaved and conquered people, that the Sovereign calls us to the field'ol honour. • _ Whet gratitude do we not owe th9se brave men who repel with such magnanimous courage all the attacks of the enemy. Our armies have shown him that the French are'espeCialiv inVrnei- • ble when they fight to deliver their territory tin der the eyes of their Sovereign, The successes which we have just gained have animatedour ar my with new courage, and ought to be a presage' to the other armies of the coalition, of the fate that awaits them. Let us deserve then the atti tude which becomes, the French. Each of us has duties to fulfil, and it is by fulfilling them that we shall prove to all Europe that the French na— tion is worthy of the high rank which it occupies among civilised nations. What sacrifice can be . too great when it is made to second the views of Government—assist our brave defenders and save the country LISLE, FEE; 21.0 n Sunday, the 13th of this month, the General of Division Baron de Salig nac, Superior Commandant of the fortress of Lisle, reviewed three companies of grenadiers of the ur ban cohorts, and afterwards invited to an 'enter tainment the General in Chief raise, who was in. the place, General Brenier, Commander of the 16th Military Division ; General Maeors, 'Com mandant &Armes ; the Mayor of the town, the superior officers of the different arms, the chiefs • of the cohorts of the national guard.. The toasts drank were—His Majesty the Emperor—The4m perial Family—The brave men who contributed to gaining the victories of the 10th and 11th of this month, and disappointing time hopes of the enemy. In the evening the Mayor caused to be pub lished by the light of flambeaux the second, te legraphic bulletin, announcing the continuation of the victories gained by his Majesty, The people of the good city of Lisle, received the news with the most lively demonstrations of joy, and with repeated shouts of " Vice l'Emperor !" At the same time these bulletins were read in the theatre, and inspired extempore songs, beatiug the .stamp of time purest patriotism, amid the nrost „entire , :onfidence in the genius of time hero who has sworn to save France.
