I 0 Weare assured that Mr. MILES PETER AN - bums is nor, as is reported,/the Author of the Epilogue to Itertetne,s's expe&ed Comedy. Mr. ANDREW& has been for vane time too much intlis. posed to think of the Muses. Mrs. Pow ELL, the ACtress, has been very seri- Ously indisposed; but she is in.a convalescent state, and will probably he soon able to resume her station on the Boards of old Drury. Lady LADE contends that she deserves the credit of having put a .stop to the appearance of the Male Bathers in the sight of the Town at Brighton, and that such conduct is the more meritorious in her, considering that she only interfered from regard to the Public. The questiws was lately agitated in a large com. pany, " What would amount to a competency in these times P' One Gentleman said, that he should be satisfied with a House, a Field, and a Gaiden.

Military Cbgplaiv. • The conduit of the KING of Sw EDEN is very na. tural in refusing to recognize the French Emperorship, Bs he has the greatest reason to eom, , lain of the sty li which B MAPARTE has lately assumed. The Official Advocates of MORI/so, in their written defence of that General, make one observe. tion which seems to be intended as an indirect at. tack upon BoNAPA ‘ RTE's elevation to power. They say that MottrAti, however animated by a desire of serving his Country in his military charader, loved private life, and wished to avoid the arduous but indispensable duty of those who, " in accepting the Supreme Magistrney, cannot find an excuse of having the misfortune of being born to it," It is only in this indirect manner that any body in France could presume to allude to the obscure origin, and dariftg , presumption of the Usurper, but the applica. lion is so strong in this instance, that it was likely to bring the Advocates into equal danger with the prisoner. It has been truly said of the Corsican Savage, that having tasted the blond of the BOOR 13 AO in' the instance of the ami .ble Duke DT:NCI-11EN, he will never rest till he has laid his fatal paws upon. the rest of that unfortunate family. Courort, who was • chosen by BONAPARTE' S Agents, as the mNlitim of their int toduCtion inns the kitche n of Louts XVIII. was formerly servant to Mr. Mat,Ltsit. T he French journals tell us, that the POPE is "be indemni fi ed for the expenses of hi s j ourney to Paris so that the impudent Possessor of the French Throne, after having dragged the I-lead of t he Catholic Church to Paris, in order that he may disgrace himself by anointing a Usurper, will gene.

YESTERDAY evening His Royal Highness, at. tended by his Son, PRINCE WILLIAM FREDERICK, and a number of Militate Gentlemen, went to the Theatre to see ,SHAKsPEARE's Comedy of The Mrrcbnut of Venice.. They were received, nn their entrance, with every mark of the most enthusiastic loyalty and affenion, by one of the most crowded and brilliant audiences we ever witnessed, The Performers; as usual, sung God 'Save' the King, at the entrance of the Royal Visitors, •and the spetia tors, standing up, loudly joined in the chorus. A transparency of His MAJESTY, with emblematical figures, was suspended from the'Cieling over the Stage. The . Play was performed. exceedingly well; and appeared to afford a high gratification both to the Illustrious Visitors and to the whole house. This morning all the Military in the Garrison will assemble, at eleven o'clock, near' the Botanic Garden, and fire a Feu-de.joir, in honour of the Annive'rsary of His Majesty's Coronation*: Yesterday afternoon Their Royal Highnesses, at.

On Friday evening last,•at Hrightorr, •a' very great crowd of people were assembled on the.

The • British Officers treated us. very politely.— They did every thing in their power to keep psis. session of the Ship, but the intrepidity of the Cap tain and Volunteers prevented Them.—(Nrwitod Morning Chronicle.)

Jtaotet BONAPARTE.—We mentioned yester day that JERomE BoNAPARTs had been comp. mented at Boston, by the Seledmen, with an invi. tation to join their annual visitation to' Deer Island. The, following particulars are from The Cbronith of -:tVlunday : :” The. setalmen, agreeable to annual usage, visited Deer Island, in the Outer Harbour, .on Fri. day last. Besides the principal Municipal Officers, amongst the guests were M. jilkOME BONAPARTE, (Brother to the Emperor of the French) and Suite, the Hon. Mr. KING, his Honour the Lieutenant. Governor, the Attorney-General, Judge BENSON, the Hon. Mr. Goa s, several of the Clergy, and many distinguished Federal and State Officers." PARIS, SEPT. 10. GENERAL MURAT has arrived here, rather mi. expetedly, from the-Coast. His return was caused by dispatches he received from FOUCITE, of which the contents can only he matter of conjecture, even to those who ob s erve with accuracy what improperly is called the Public Spirit. During Bostaresitres absence from the Capital, his secret Enemies, as well as those of the Roya: list and Jacobin Fadion, have not been idle.— The almost certain rupture with several Continental Princes, and the evident impossibility of any sue cess in his grand •Expedition against England, have been useful means in their hands, to agitate, if not to excite the people. Their disaffedion and dis content have shewn themselves on several occasions. Caricatures, pasquinades, and ball ids, have, not withstanding the vigilance of the Police, been ex. hibited, published, and sung ; in as hich the crimes and treachery; the plots and ambition ; the con spiracies and atrocities of the BONAPARTE family, have been exposed to public view, cpntempt, and vengeance. This has been carried to sucll an cx. cess, that even FoncliE himself apprehendfd serious cori:sequences ; particularly, as of the eight thou Sand Troops remaining here, many were suspected to have been seduced, and ready to join the colours of insurgents, had they been ,eteCted. It can hardly be credited, in foreign Countries, how much the new Emperor, his new dignity, and his Imperial relatives have been turned into ridicule, in the public walks, as well as in the market places ; in our streets, as well as in DUE churches ; in our gardens, as well as in out theatres. Since the summer of 1797 the public opinion never pronounced itself, more • openly against all the heroes and heroines produced by the Revolu tion—but, as at that period, terrors- not only silenced clamour, but changed our Patr;ots into the most abjed of slaves. Six thousand men from the Camp near AMiens, and four thou sand from Compeigne, preceded the arrival of MURAT, who, with Foucnt, immediately ordered some imprisonments aradeportations. The Patroles became more numerous, and the Police Spies mote audacious • not 'a voice was any longer heard, exc e p t in praise o f the BONAPARTEI; and the " Emperor for ever!" was again the Order of the Day, in those very places, and among those very persons, who, some feW days before, were the most vociferous and violent in their execrations against the present order of things. It is even reported, that several of our' Pate;ltr, who were noted by the Police fur their dis ,affeetion, have become informers ; and, to save themselves, have done every thing in their power to have their associates guillotined or transported.— . Such a vile and fickle people do not deserve the blessings of Liberty ; and, as long as a man is found who his ambition and audacity to usurp power, if backed by the. bayonet,, he will never want here, either executioners, victims, or slaves. From mu. .drrn France, Europe has, therelane, every thing to fear, but nothing to hbpe; hecause the late mu tinous disposition was not confined to Paris only, but extended to all the Departments ; and, with the exception of "soo,orso Soldiers, and so.oota Place. men, there was not an inhabitant of France, who did" oot equally" detest and despise BONAPARTE • who, notwithstanding, had lie only half the number of bayonets and sycophants, would, with equal ease, he enabled to oppress thirty millions of his slaves, as he has done for these last five' years. It is said, that •MireAf is to join BONAPARTE at Mentz.
