YESTE RDAY we received ' Paris l'a pers to the I t tit itistaor, and Dutch . 7o;insar's to the, t sth. They contain very little intelligence of imrortance. BINAr Att.TE arrived at Calais on the 6th, where he inspected the Vessels and Fortificationa ; and reached Boulogne on . the 9th, where he likewise reviewed one of the Divisions nf the Army. CHAVTAL, the Minister of the Interior, has sent in his resignation. ife•is succeeded by CuAtbAr 1G Ny, 'the present Ambassador at Vienna., Another account is given of the second Born- bardment of Havre, by the Squadron commanded by Captain ()Livia, in which it is reluctantly ad. minted that a number of houses were destroyed, and many of the Inhabitants killed and wounded. From this we may fairly infer, that the dam ige caused by the Bombardment was much more extensive than the French Joutnals have yet thought propel to admit. ' A contemptible Libel tipon Mr.SPVNCER SMITH appears in the French Papers, of Which it is sufficient to say,, that it is in the usual style of those Journals. The 1114nitel4r confirms the account of the attack made by some coats of, Lord NELSON'S 'Squadron on some French and Ligurian Ships in the flay of Lavandon, and admits that out of twelve vessels, Lye 'wetc burnt and one captured. Our 'Readers wilt find a very interesting article in'; nother part of this Paper, relative to an atrocious design against the life of the rightful Sovereign of Fiance, and those branches of his Family who re.. sided with ,him. There can be no doubt that the same horrible, design was t 9 be ptit in ,praCtice againA every other Member of the BOURBON race, in order' to remove from the world the chief cause elf jealousy in the mind of the execrable Usurper of rrance. From that Monster in human shaPe every thiwg horrible may indeed be expetted ; and it May he iai+.y conceived, that any Potentate in Europe who attempts to cross his views, 2tod who might be tectite from the tiperarions of warfare, would . be exposed to the samedanger, from the miscreants• lit is likely to employ, to effeet, if possible, the pulposes of his vengeance, by means of poison or assassination.
