FRENCH PAPERS. IS.—,The King of Prussia has afhlressed the following Proclamation to his Artily :- When I summoned you to combat for the defence of the country, I was confident that you .would conquer of die. War riors, you have justified that cbtifidence, and the 'expectation ;of the nation. Fifteen battles, almost.d.tily combats, a great number of towns taken by assault, and of strong places con quered in Germany and in ijolland, &C. have signalised your progress. Receive the testhribuiies of my satisfation; and of your country's gratitude. •You have established her hide ,- pLudence, guaranteed her honour, and laid the foundation of peace. You are worthy of the name yOu bear. You are oh jeets of the attention and the esteern'of Europe: Yon return from war crowned with glory, and your country will receive you with love and gratitufle. Paris, June 3. FREDERICK WILLIAM. BERLIN, JoNE IS.—The following article also aopcared in - The Court Gazette : "'7o PeQp7t,—Tlfe combat is ended for which my peo ple took up Milli with me ; gloriously terminated, by. the help of. God and the assistance of my faithful Allies, by the strength, time courage, the resigniition, the privations of ecrry kind, of every one who can be called a Prussian. Ac cept my thanks. Your efforts have been great, your sacri fices immense : I am sensible of them ; I am gratefdl for them. Ger!, who watched over you, protected you. We have obtained what we desired. Prussia presents herself crowned with glory to the present generation, and to pos terity, obtained by the valour which she displayed, and the firmness she manifested in prosperity awl in adversity. The Nation, as one man, ran to arms. One sentiment alone ani- - Mated the whole nation, and God has rewarded that noble feeling. He has recompensed you in effect, by the peace which you have acquired ; that peace will bring hack pros perous times. The husbandman will no longer plough for a stranger, be will cultivate for himself. Commerce, arts, and sciences will flourish again . competence will secure the hap piness of all classes ; and, in a new order of things, will heal the wounds occasioned by such Jong sufferings. " Paris, June 3, Isl 4. " FREDERICK WILLIAM." ROME, JUNE 6.—lt is proposed to erect here a lofty Pyramid, in honour of peace and the de-, liverance of Europe. On the top will be placed the Statue of Religion triumphant. The base will be quadrangular, awl formed of massy squares of .marble. The, principal face will bear a -like ness of the present Pontiff ; two others will present likenesses of the Allied Sovereigns ; and the fourth those cat the most illustrious Generals a nd Ministers,. whose arms and councils contri buted to the result. All the nations of Europe are expected to subscribe to the erection of this Monument. NAPLES, JUNE 6.—The -English ships in the Bay of Naples fired a salute on the 4th of June, in honour of the King's Birth-day. The King of Naples, upon the same occasion, ordered his ves sels to hoist English colours, and join in the re joicings. At night the - Duke De Gallo, Minister for Foreign Affairs, gave a grand Fete, tb which all the English Officers, the Diplomatic Corps, the Ministers, &c. were invited. The first toast after supper was, " The King of England." ---- Oxford, in the name of the English, gave, for the second, " The heath of the King of Naples, and his family." HAMBURGII MAIL. HANOVER, JUNE 21.—A Westphalian Officer, who is just returned from Casan, where he was a prisoner of war, affirms, that the day before he lift that place, Vandamme hanged himself in his chamber. It is supposed,that the receipt of the Ukase, ordering him to be sent to Siberia, led him to this extraordinary step. HAMBURGIT, JUNE 24.—General Benningsen has appointed a Commission to examine and de liver up the private property taken by the French in Hamburgh, and the environs, for which re ceipts were given, which property, or,such pact as is still in the magazines, is to be restored to the owners on proving their titles. The new Norwegian Constitution excludes the Jews from the country. Waldstadt, from which Marshal Blucher takes his title, is a village near Leignitz and the Katzback, built in commemo ration of a great battle in 1241, between Henry IL Duke of Silesia, and the Tartars, in which the Duke was defeated and killed. I-lAWBURGH, JUNE 21.—The 5000 sick whom the French left behind them in our hospitals are all to he conveyed by sea to Havre and .Dunkhk. The greater part of them have already been em barked and sailed. Of these poor•creatures, be- tween 30 and 40 stilt' die daily.—Since the Ist of June last year, 66 public and private buildings in this city have been employed as hospitals, which, during the months of January and February, con tained nearly 10,000 sick, of whom from 60 to 70 die daily. We had to supply all their wants of every kind, and are still charged with this bar then.—Of Davonst's army corps alone, estimated at 35,000 men, 9,546 have, from June, 1813, 'to June, 1814, been buried f'r'om our hospitals ; and there still remain between 8 and 9000 raw • youths, whose recovery'is extremely doubtful.-1 a pro portion as our hospitals are evacuated by the sick, they ate delivered tip to ki Commission of Health, uito are charged with the care of seeing- them cleansed and -put ified.

We give some further gleanings from the French Papers of yesterday, in which there is one para giaph not a little astonishing—we'allude. to the effrontery of some person at Naples, mentioned as Oxrottp, who, at a Court entertainment, ook the liberty to assume the responsibility of he British present, and in their name, drink the licalth of JoActum MURAT, V t s " King of Naples." Whoever this person may be, (and we trust he is not the English Nobleman with the title of Ox- voaD), he ought to be severely called to ac count for .so impudent and iMproper an act. As a British Subject, he. must have known there is only one King of NAPLES yet recog . nized by his Government, and that till' the ti tle of the Upstart Postillion is acknowledged by this Country (which may it never be), it is not only indecorous, but criminal, to have afford ed such an eNample of recognition even in an un authorized individual. Since writing the above, we ha :e at a late hour of the forenoon received French Papers to the 29th, of which the following are the chief con- tents :—ln the Chamber of Deputies on the 27th, Mr. DE-LnoamE proposed a resolution, " to be seech his DI,I..ILSTY to- present, in conformity to the 23d article of the Constitutional Charter, the proj@ct of alays. for 41xing the Civil which was to be discussed on the following day Mr. Lava proposed the discussion of the subject of direct taxation, by moving for several Accounts connected therewith, and an Address to the King to order a new repartition of the contributions in the Departments of France ; this was fixed for Wednesday.—Mr. DUMOLARD moved to beseech his Majesty to form a law, "declaring that the three branches of the Legislative Authority, recognized by the 15th Art. of the Charter, should form essen tially and exclusively the Parliament of France, and that no otherbody could attribute to it self,or receive that title. , Thursday was appointed for the consi deration of this subject. Mr. DURBACII proposed a similar Address to the KING, to request his MA JESTY to re-arrange and complete the laws rela- tive to the abuse of the Press, and to produce a law which would reconcile the rights guaranteed to Citizens by the Constitution, with the punish-. ment of offences.committed by the Press. He sug, gested that this law ought to prescribe• the nature of the responsibility of authors or printers, and - define the penalties applicable to offences, With out giving any Minister an arbitrary authority an terior to the commisson of the delinquency, which could not be exercised except at the ex pence of the liberty of the Press ; the Chamber declaring at the same time, agreeably,to the 68th Article of the Charter, that the laws actually in -existence, not contrary to the present Charter, should continue in force ; and those contrary thereto should be abolished ; the regulation of the sth Feb. 1810 (he obseived) had been so abo lished • by the - Constitutional Charter, and could neither be revived nor acted upon in any of its provisions, general or particular. The discussion of this vitally interesting question was appointed for Wednesday, after that on Mr. DUMOLARD'S notice. The new Rules for the House of Depu ties are given in the Moniieur, and consist of Ninety-four Articles. The Duchess of ANGOULEME left Paris on the 26th for Vichy, for the benefit of the .waters. Her Royal Highness was, according to the ancient custom accompanied, through the first post' by a detachtneet of Gardes-du-Corps. The KING has made Prince SCHWARTZENBERG a present of forty Merinos. On Monday morning many carriages, with the livery of BOURBON CoNns,' arrived at St. Maur, near Paris, to appear in a solemn Funeral Service for the Due D'Exo.tuctl.—The Church of St. Maur is hung with white drapery, and is otherwise appropriately fitted up for the occasion. Beneath the principal entrance is the following inscription : "To the Great and Mcgnanimons Louis-ANTOINE-1 - hsat BouRBON-CONDE, Dec D'ENGIIIeS, not less lamented for his personal valour and the renown of his ancestors, 'than for his infamous murdek: be was destroyed in the floweiof his age." The Emperor. ALEXA:ZDER was expected .p,t the Hague on the 28th, whence H.I.M. would con tinne pis route by AmVerdatti ; Cuehire Cob lentti Mentz, and Bisushall, which he would reach July sth ; there, it is conjectured, be tnigh( be joined by the Empress, and thence take the road by Leipsick to Petersburgh. L 1 Majesty, is ex pected at Vienna about the middle of September. The Duchess of OLDENBURGII, it is said, jour ❑ies by Tournay, Brussels, Liege, Cologne, Cob- Lentz, Wetzlar, Aschaffenberg, Wurtzburgh, and Bamberg, to Egra in Bohemia, where she intends spending the summer. This Princess will visit Vienna about the period when the Congress meets. The rumour of a pestilential disease having ap peared in some parts of France, is expressly con tradicted by the Journal de Paris.. " RAsTADT, JUNE 21.—Baron HESS is named Governor of the German district, between the Rhine and Moselle, seperated from France. He will be assisted by a Bavarian Commissioner. The Austrian General FRIMONT is appointed Gover nor, and the Prussian Colonel KRAUSENCK, Com mandant of Mentz. gr ASCHAFFENBERG, JUNE 23.--To-morrow Marshal Prince of WREDE will take possession of our City and Principality in the name of the King of 11AvARIA. " FRONTIERS OF BRANDENBURCII,-JUNE 13. It appears certain, that besides the great acquisi tions which our Government will make in Ger many, our eastern-frontier will be considerably extended; but we are assured that we shall cede to Russia the small District of Prussian Lithuania, situated between the Niemen and the frontiers of that Empire. All the roads through the Prussian States are covered with French prisoners returning to their Country. They all look well, and are very gay. The grand Fete in honour of Peace will be celebrated at Berlin on the 3d of August, the King's Birth-day. The fa mous Arch, carried away by BUONAPARTE in 1806 arrived on the 10th June, at Grunwald, two leagues from Berlin. Multitudes of the peo ple had gone to pay their respects to this favourite national monument. FRENCH FUNDS. 5 per Cents. 66, £lO-50. Bank Action , . 1095. The Emperor ALEXANDER and the Duchess of OLDENBURGH were received at Calais on Tues day amid the roar of artillery. ,On hisMAsEsTv's leaving the Royal Charlotte, for the Queen's yacht which landed him, he called out in English for all the sailors to come on deck, when he said, " Fare well, my boys !" which was returned with enthu siastic cheering. He presented Captain ScorT and his Lady with each a valuable ring. He set off about half-past ten for Ostend; after remain ing only a few hours at Calais. The Duchess was to follow her illustrious brother at three. The King of PRUSSIA travelled incognito.— He quitted Calais at an early hour of the morning. The new Navy in the Serpentine has this morn ing received an accession of strength by the launch of another vessel. The squadron now con sists of four sail of the line and one frigate ; and so extraordinary has been the dispatch used, that three of the former have already got their masts up, and no casualties have yet occurred, with the exception of one Rigger, who fell from the yard arm overboard,and was unfo7tunately—ducked I It is not -surprizing, that a matter of so much national importance as this is, should not only have occasioned much discussion out of doors, but should even have occupied the attention of Parliament. The Opposition, observing that the steady and persevering measures of the PRINCE REGENT have overpowered ButnsArAnTr, in every point, have taken it into their wise bead's to ima gine that our Government had actually determined to surpass the Ex-Tyrant in, his last grand design for a " page of history ;" and, as he failed in his purpose of blowing up Paris fr;ml the Catacombs, that we are resolved to shew our.piperiority over him, even in this respect, by blowing up London from the Park ! We do not believe this to be the fact ; but there is certainly reason for thinking that it is a fair subject for investi gation, the explanations offered by the CHAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER being by no means sa tisfactory. He preteoded, indeed, not to know whether the LORD CHAMBBERLAIN or the FIRST LORD of the ADMIRALTY had the superintendance of this gallant equipment ; but weliave it from au thority, on which we can rely (though at present kept secret for considerations of State), that the whole is under the immediate direction of the latter, and that the Serpentine manoeuvres, how ever scoffed at, are preparatory to evolu tions oo a more extensive scale, to accom- plish these vessels in tactics suited to the ser vice on which they are about__ to be employ ed. That service is for the Lakes of Canada ; and when we recollect the mighty force against which they will have to contend, it is evident, that though their large canvas sides and _imposing sham-ports will most , probably fright, yet they should also have a notion, in case cif necessity, how to fight the Elnany: THE LATE LORD MtLVILLg: The Subject of the following anonymous cow' munication meets so entirely With (Mr a )toba" tion, that we ILA m only recomend it to the 156'. fish Navy, but promise, our CorteSpondent, a"a all those who agree with him and us in opinioni our warmest support in bringing the objcct trs view to the desired conclusion.
