The most prevalent reports are, that the EMPREsS 'lnd King of Roz-ft have left Paris, and set off fur amboniliett, about 30 miles from Paris ; that :rosrpa Pt i oNAPARTa had issued a Proclamation, epon the Parisians to defend themselves, as the.Enemir - was at their gates.

It seems to be universally credited that elllrs is, betore - now, in possession of Paris. Tile %hole tone of the intelligence and ru !tours of this day is most cheering.

Let them the 'Present bury every thought but that of 2 4vin g . their country ; l e t t h em - s i n k . e - very recol ecti°n but that of her wrongs ; let them forget !et), inutive of action hut that of her misery ; let them set no o th er o bj ect with i n the i r gale b ut Pt of the overthrow of her Tyrant, and, with the restoration of'her rightful King, the return of Peace and concord, to medicine her w re t c h e dness, i nat l l he a l the bleedi ng wounds of Europe. This, , % ( l e(i ' were publi c Vi rtue, and God and man ' r eward their exertions to the fullest extent of Vovir desires. lu The folio I,`-'t • -ng, are extracts translated from our 1 grieve to tell you that the Proclamations i's;led of icy the name of hi s Majesty, and the cavils ation the views .of one part of the 1/49a1411. have been iv oductive of' 1 fear that t4cy will not 1 ' on.y wimp the rising very bad effects among ' us. 1)4 4 of the po!ople, but certainly make solis of the the per greatest infl uence i n this quarter averse t l ° any co-ope rat i on in the counter-revolution.— " 'Ave, no doubt, been informed, that .at the : I.l 'lti m eet i ng here, preparatory to the coinmenee• Pe nt of this wig4ty work, th ere Were present not i ew er , than 'rbirty-twn Menabers of the Old Par. lallent, the chief Landholders in all the district t louto i -iourdeau x , and most of the principal mer that ° ''lnts of the place. They agreed u nan i mous l y , w henever t he British crossed the Adour, 4r1(1 Were advanced_ to support them, they should er c'et , the 'Bounso,t standard, declare for the Itestoration of the exiled Family, and ern . Ploy all their power, i to bring about that much 141311 e(1 -for- object. Every thing proceecied most harinoniousl - till the D - claxn . tion ill the , y 14allie Of the King and the other 05cial Procla . . mations and Acts appeared: We then found that Mr. Lynn, the Mayor, and those who agree with him, entertained very different notions frOM•those • .. , . . of the L an d owners, and men Of rank throughout - -- the Conntry. The former are partiiatiS of .a re volution, whii. 4 tpiglit continue, a majority of the adberentS oldie USurtict in place and power; thelat ter will hear ° N o thin g S h ort o f the entire subversion of tkese intruders, and the re-establishment cif. the ancient regime, as nearly as niay lie, in every point: They ridicule the idea of any compromise withthe Corsican's followers, and will take no steps in . any revolution which would associate them with these persons. Mr. LYNCH and his, friends, on the other hand, think it most prudent and likely to- be successful, to adopt the moderate middle . course, and endeav our t o d etac h t h em f rom the interests of the new dynasty, by seeming them re= wards for abandoning it in favour of the old. " In consequence of this disagreement, the An cient Regime Party have given up the cause, and retired from Bourdeaux to their estates. The NArbite Cockade has beets discontinued by many of those dissatisfied with the compromising system. Asa number of these Gentlemen were leaving the City, they were met by Marshal BEaisp9aD, who entered into conversation with. •:iein, and en quired the reason of their withdrawing their support. They answered him, "If we are to have . a Jacobin ,Government, the one under which we now lice iy as good as any other that can be devised to succeed it ! Wherefore should we plunge into a Civil War, in addition. to our other miseries, only to ex change one Jacobin Government for another."--- With this they departed. " A subscription of six millions of livres in aid ofthe.Revolution, which was before entered into... has been greatly reduced by this unfortunate oc currence, as many of the dissentients were among. the principal Contributors,. and have erased their names from the list. Gb& knows how . matters can be restored to their first unison. " - Among other fruits o► this untoward schism, we have exhibited, caricatures of Mr. LYNCH and the chief supporters of his side, with the Cap . of Liberty (Bonnet rouge) on their heads, andrlaggers in their hands. In, the Red Cap is the White Cockade—in scorn of the plan which Nronld assort together principles so irreconcilable -as those of the Revolutionists and Jacobins of the present day, and the Roy alists.who desire a counter-revo lution." By Letters from the Coast we are informed, that the firing heard on the opposite side OIL Sun day morning, proceeded from dig Briseis and other British cruizers attacking spine Freiich res ult which were skulking along their own shore. Of the victories gained over BIJONAPAUTE by Prince SCHWAKTZENBERG, on the 21st and 22d, the following further particulars have been stated to us, on authority upon which we are always in clined to rely : " The Allies took on one day forty-seven pieces of cannon, and have finally succeeded in prevent ing the junction of BUONAPARTE and MIGE- LEAU." To this we have to add the information con tained in Dutch Papers received this morning.— These affirm, that AUGEREAU had been again de feated by BIANCHI, subsequent to the deteat at MAcoNT ; that the Corps of MA RMONT nud MOR TIER, left to protect Paris from 13LtronEn,. were, nearly surrounded ; that the Head-quarters Of the Prussian Veteran were, previous to the 23d, at Fismes (half -way between„Pxheims and Sols,- sons), and that the latter place was heavily bom barded by General Boum , . It is evident . from I.3l.uonEa's movement, that Paris was his object and even supposing the 20,900 men reviewed by JOSEPH to }ive marches; to the North, instead of the main army, we see no reason for ‘vithliolding our belief front the rumour of the approach to, if dot the actual capture of, the Capital by the int sistibbs artuy of Silesia. A report is indeed strongly prevalent this (12 , 4 that Itit.ucust had reached the gates of Paris on the 2. 4 th uk.; that KiIIgJOSEPII, with his Sister in.Law dot Empress, and the King of ROME, had in consequence hastily removed to Rain bouillet. SOSJOH, hOWevei, had previously ad dressed a bodTbf the people, earnestly exhorting them to defend the Capital, air', assuring thew that, if they did so, the limperor would Stion re turn and support6ern The rcikkt.of the defeat of Buot4APARTE on the 25th also continues to gain ground. A defeat, which, if it is confamed, must, iu his present pe rilous circumstances be conclusive of his career. God• Almighty grant it may ! There seems to have been a very general and successful plan of offensive operations commenced against the Enemy in Italy by MURAT and G en . BELLEGARDE. BO ONAYARTsE cannot protect the heart , .—the extremities must fall. The notice of the ;a - airs of Flanders in . these Papers is very ccinfused—Gen. MALSON bud no sucli ccirce 2S is MClltiolled. . . An Evening Paper state, (.fe know not on ‘7l)ot authOriii,r) that, in return to the Ultimatum or the AMU, BUO;sTAPARTE sent a counter-projet, in which he veqUired them to give up n(..t only, all that they had conquer(' in Alsace, Lorraine, Chanipagne, Picardy, Franche Comte, and Our gundy but the whole territory from the frontier s of France to the Waal, inclUding the fortress of Ni meguen on that river: they were to restore theVene- Sian territory to EUGENE BEALWARNOTS, and make bins King of Italy : and lastly . , they were to find in dethnities for JosEmes kingdom of Spain, 3E• ititmes kingdom of Westphalia, young Louis's Grand Dukedom of. Berg, and EUGENE'S contin gent succession to the Grand Duchy of 'Frank for‘t. , Till we have official documents, instead of conjectures, to go upon, we shall refrain from entering into the discussion of this important sub ject. Ministers do not give to Newspapers what they think it right \ to .withhold from Parliament. In the House of Counnons, last ,right, Mr. PONSONIBY seemed -, desirous of sliming that he was at the head of the Opposition. His arguMent appears to us to be the most unreasonable and unsustained of any we ever heard iu that House. Would he wish our Cabinet to act without the. Allies ? Surely, whe•'e there is su grati fying •a concurrence of s•entisnent, there may be allowed a few days frothcuriosity for a con currence of measures ; and the British public, and the rest of Europe, may be simultaneously put in pOssession of the information, alike in teresting to all.
