FROCLAMATIO:st OF MARSHAL PRINCE SCIIWARTZEN• BERG TO THE INHABITANTS OF PARIS. Inhabitants of Paris !--The Allied Armies are before Paris. The object of their march towards the Capital of France is founded on the here of sincere and lasting reconefliation with France. 'rue attempts made to'put an end to so many mis fortunes have hcen useless; because there exists, in the very power of the Government which op presses You, MI insurmountable obstacle to peace. What Frenchman i 3 there who is not convinced of this truth The Allied Sovereigns seek, in good faith, a ;salutary authority in France, which may ceinent the union Of all Nations and of all Govermnents with her ; it is to the city of Paris that it hits under the present circumstances, to accelerate the praCcqf the world. The wish of this city is looked for with that interest which a result of such int- Turtancc must inspire. Let her declare herself, and tram that moult at -the army before her walls becomes the support of her decisions. Parisians, you know the situation of your coun try, the conduct of Bourdeaux, the friendly occu pation of Lyons, the evils brought upon France, and the real dispositions of your fellow-citizens. You will find in these examples the termination of foreign %var and of civil discord ; you cannot search it elsewhere. The preservation and tranquillity of your city will be the ohject of the cares and measures the Allies are ready to take, in conjutiction with the A uthorities and the Notables, who rckseßs the largest share of public estimation.. No troops shall be quartered upon you. • Lii these sentiments, Europe in arms before your wails, addresses you. Hasten to reply to .the confidence which she places in your love fur the country, and in your discretion. The Commander in Chief of Ge Allied Arrnieg, Marshal Prince of Sell WARTZENBERG. Heights of Belleville, above Paris, March SO, 1914, Seven u'Clock in the Evening. ilig. Lotto,—l seize an opportunity which offers at this instant, to transmit to you an account of I the successes of this day. After the affair of Fere Chainnenoise, the tie tails of which I had the honour of giving to your Lordship in my last dispatch, the united Army of Prince Schwartzenberg and Marshal Blucher passed the 'Manic on the 28th and 29th, at Tri port and Meaux. The enemy opposed a feeble resistance to Ow passage of the river ; but on the 28th, in the evening, General D'Yorck was severely engaged. near Clove ; he drove the enemy, however, at last flow .the woods about that place. with very consi- Acrableloss. Yesterday the whole army (with the exception of the corps of Marshal Wrede'and Gen. Sicken, which were left in position at Meaux) advanced upon Paris. Continual skirmishing took place whit the enemy; hilt he retired, giving up Pantin - on his right, and the ground in front of Mont martre an his left. It appeats, that during last night the corps of Marshals Mortier and Marmont entered Paris.— The garrison,'which previously was assembled in it, was composed of a part of Gen. Gerard's corps tinder Gen. Compans, and a force of about eight thousand regular troops. a nd thirty thousand na- Ititnal guards, under Gen. Unlit', the, Governor of the town. With this force, the enemy, under the com mand of : Joseph Buonaparte, took up a position this morning, the right on the height of Belle ville occupying that town, tile centre on the canal Dc l'Ourque, the left towards Neuilly. This position was strong, from the intersected nature of the ground on its tight. The heights of Montmartre commanded the plain in rear of the canal of L'Ourque, and added strength to the position of the enemy. The disposition of attack for this morning was, the Prince Royal of Wirtemberg, forming the left, marched upon Vincennes ; General lteitlsky upon Belleville ; the guards and reserves upon the greatchaose leading from Bandy to Paris Marshal Blucher was to march upon the chauss6es from Soissons, and attack Montmartre. All the attacks succeeded ; General Iteiffsky possessed himself of the heights of Belleville ; the troops under his orders particularly distin guished m ished them in the different attacks made 'by them. The village of Pontin was carried at the point • .of the bayonet ; the heights above Belleville were carried in the most gallant manner by the Prus sian guards—these corps captured 43 pieces of cannon, and todk, a greatnumberof prisoners; Nearly at the time these successes' had been obtained, Marshal Blucher ,commenced his attack upon Montmartre. The regiment of Prussian black hussars made a must brilliant charge upon a column of the enemy, and took 20 . pieces of cannon. At the moment of these decisive advantage-s, a flag of truce was sent from Marshal Marmont, tin tirnating a desire to receive any propositions that it might have been intended toytaaketo• him by a flag . of truce which had previously beed refused 4'111 ! mittance. 'An armistice Vvas all4 . proposed by him for two hours, to obtain which, the consented $o ahaadon every position he occupied without tote barrievs of Paris. _ _ PLince - Schwartzetibevg .agreed to tinsel terms. Count Nesselrode, .on the part of the Emperor,of and Count Par, from Prince gthwartzen• berg, were sent into the town to demand its sure render.. An answer is just arrived ; the garcisoa will :•• • • • - evacuate Faris by seven o'clock t o-morrow morn- I may therefore eongr.iiiiiate your Loidship nn the capture of that capitid. The allied f iroops will enter it tomorrow. .• „Your Lordship will excuse the hurry in which this letter is written ; I have only time to giye you the general details of the great events which have taken place ; at such a moment it would be difficult to express a feeling of exultation. The Emperor of Russia and the King of Prussia were present in all the actions. Prince Schwartzenberg, hC the decision with which he determined to march upon the capital of France, as by the mode in which he hAS conducted its advanci. , , has obtained universal admiration. I have the honour to be, &e. !WWI t; us' eat.-Col. 63d itegt. The night lion. Viscount &C. • Heights of Tlvfleville, March 30, 1 Sl.l. Lonn,—After a brilliant victory, God nas placed the Capital of the French Empire in the hands of the Allied Sovereign., a just retribution for the miseries inflicted on Alo:,icow, Vicuna, Madrid, Berlin, and Lisbon, by the De.iolator of Europe. I must very imperfectly detail the events of this glorious day at such a moment as the present, a ad therefore throw myself on your Lurdshie's Maul- genee. The enemy's army, unrier the command of Joseph Buonapartc, aided by Marshals Murder and Marmont, occupied with their right the heights of Fontcnov, Itowaineille, and Belleville their left vas On M'nutul,atre, and they had sere- ral redoubts in the centre, :turf ou the Whole line an immense artillery of übove one ht u idred aud fifty pieces. In order to attack this position, the Silesian army was directed :\loattnartre., Si. Denis, and the village of La Valette . and Pantin, while the grand army attacked the enemy's right on the heights before alluded to at Romainville and Belle ville. Marshal Blucher made his own dispositions for his attack. The Gilt corps, under General ReifFsky, moved front Bondy in three columns of attack, supported by thc guards and reserves, and leaving the great route of Meaux, attacked the heights of Romain silk and Belleville. These are. very commanding, as well as Montmartre, the ground between being covered with villages and country seats, and the possession of them commands Paris and the whole country round. Prince Eugere of ,Wirtemberg's divisions of the Gat corps commenced the attack, and with the greatest spirit endured for a long period a very galling fire of artillery, being sup ported by the reserves of grenadiepo ; his Serene Highness, after some loss, tarried the heights of Romainville, the enemy retiring to those of Belk vine behind them. The •Ith corps supported this attack more to the left, and was directed on. the heights of Rosily, and on Charenton, by their gallant Commander the Prince Royal of Willem berg. The 3d corps of the army was placed in echelon near Nettilly in reserve, as well as the cavalry. The attack of the grand army ha‘l C0111:11cuced srs,rap tiina. before that of the Siksi,o,. de, hived by b+it. it vrix.a tiQt. baOre (;metals D'Yorek and Kleist dehuached near St. Denis on Anbeville, and here and at Pmitin a very obstinate resistance was made. Ills Royal High ness Prince William of Prussia, with his brigade, together with the Prussian guards, were mach distinguished. The enemy's cavalry attempted to charge, but were brilliantly repulsed by the Bran-. denhmgh and black hass.:r regiments. A strong redoubt and battery of the enemy'i in the centre kept General D'Vorek's corps in check for some part of the day, but their right fian'h being gained by the heights of Romainville, 'as well as their loss in every part of the field, and finally, the complete discomfiture on all sides, reduced them to the necessity of sending a flag of truce to-de mand a cessation of tostiliti-es, they giviag up all the ground without the Barrier of Paris, until farther .arrangements could be made. The heights of Montmartre were to be placed, by the generosity of a beaten enemy; in otq pos session (Romainville and Bellville), being carried at the moment when Count Lan r ,.. , eron's corps was about to storm them, and had already taken pos session of the rest of the hill. ' Count Woronzow's division also carried the village of La Villette, charging with two batta lions of chasseurs, and possessing themselves of twelve pieces of cannon, were also stopped near the barrier of Paris by the flag at truce. However, hi; Imperial Majesty, the King of Prussia, and Prince Schwartzenberg, with that humanity which must excite the applause, while it calls for the admiration of Europe, acceded to en tertaining a proposition to prevent the capital from being sacked and destroyed. Count Par, Aid-de-Camp to the Prince Field-Marshal, and Colonel Orloff, Aided.e-Canip to his Majesty the Emperor, were sent to arrange the cessation of hostilities ; and Count Ness elrocie , his Imperial Majesty's Minister, went in at four o'clock this evening, when the battle ceased, to Paris. The.result of this victory cannot yet be known; numerous pieces of artillery taken in the field, and a large number of prisoners have fallen into our hands. ,The number of guns in the margin * are already reported. Our loss has been something considerable ; but we may hare the consoling hope, that the brave men %dui fell will accomplish the work of the downfall of despotism, and rear the standard of renovated Europe under a just equilibrium, and the dominion of its legitimate Sovereigns. I take the liberty of sending my Aide-de-Camp, Capt.'
