PARIS, JUL'i 28.—The Minister of the Interior has addressed the following Circular Letter to the Prefe&s of Departments : ".'You have been already made acquainted' with the Decree of the !loth of February, relative to the religious ceremonies which are to be celebrated on the 15th of' August, for the festival of Sti;NATO LEON, and that of the 're-establishment of the Ca tholic Ileligion- in France.

The frlarn,l(t ysE R,which arrived at Liverpool on Thursday from Barbadoes, whence she sailed on :he , . Bth ult. brings intelligence that the .French Squadron c.allecl from Martinique in tWo Divisions, of three Sail . each; the first Division on the 30th of June, and the other on the. Ist of July. • Admiral CocH.P..A.7e; was Soon informed of the escape of the Enemy, • • and sailed in pursuit of them, with four Sail of the tine. No other English Squadron had then arrived in the West Indies. It was supposed that the French hid shaped their course for the HaVannah. r • Then; can be nodoubt that, after being so long at sea, they must be greatly in want of supplies of every kind ; - and_from the' very short stay they made at Martinique, it may be conjeaureg that they found ' it impossible to procure what they wanted at Mar tinique, and therefore sailed for the Havannah in bouei of being there better supplied. It is, how- , . e‘er, supposed by some,' that they would endeavour to Make the best of their way homeward's. After the w.perience we hive had of the condu& .of other French Squadrons, it is certainly not at all improbable that this aiSo, under the influence of panic, may en , fleavour i to reach its own ports with% having attempt ed. to car:y into effea any objea for which it might be supposed to have Been sent 'out., If Admiral COCH .. .RANE should be fortunate enough to overtake them, .there can be no doubt of the result. There are be sides, the - Squadrons of Sir J. B. WARREN and Sir 'RICHAR.I? STRACHAN, as well as other. Squadrons, on the Ahr:fp look-out. Added to this, all the principal 1 )- orts frrim Brest to Cadiz are closely watched by our gallant Tars. The French Admiral and Prince ROME must therefore be fortunate, indeed, if they do not find their way into a 'British Port, altbou , 4ll we have_ no doubt they will try 'every manoeuvre to escape that fear can suggc-st. SINCE writing the above ,we have received the Barbarities, llierctir 7 y of the Bth-ult. which, after an nouncing the escape of the Enemy ; as above men. tioned, states, that Admiral COCHRANE sailed on. the 2d ult. in pursuit . 'of them, with the Northum . , L'erlavi d, Elephant, And Agfumemnon. •Three .of the Enemy's Ships ofihe Line:were seen to the lee ward of Dominica on the 30th June, and the other three and some' Frigates off the Diamond Rock on' the Ist of July.-- 7 • They were supposed, as above stated, : to. be shaping their course for the Havannah, where it was stated they were to be joined by two 'Spanish Ships of the 'l..ineand two Frigates. The divi sion under the immediatU command of the French Admiral, bad On board six light -field-pieces, and eight 42-pound carrotiacles, in addition to their com plement of metal. The other division wa's under the command of JErtoistE BONAPARTE. Admiral COCII.- RA - Ni . bad taken on board 350 chosen Troops, _from the Garrison of St. Ann's: The Admiral had given notice to the_ Merchants, and Shtp-owners, that in • , consequence of not having sufficientiorce to send with the trading Vessels, the June Convoy ww. , to wait and to be sent with the July.convoy.. • The same .Paper ',states, that General MIRANDA • had arrived at Trinidad, ,and that, an Embargo had been laid on in the Ports of that Island on his,arrival. The General had been very successful in recruit ing his force, who were all in high spirits, and, to gether with their Commander, entertained the most sanguine hopes of success. TrIE preparations which- have been making' at Boulogne, apparently for son le hostile purpose, have induced some. of our Competitors to suppose, that whatexer BONAPARTE may pretend, he is not sin cere, in his Neotiations . fer Peace with this Coun-. try. As to his sincerity in those Negotiations,' or in any other transa6tions, his cbara&er is too well known to raise much confidence ; but as it is evidently his interest to make peace, some reliance may be placed in his efforts for that purpose. It would be absurd indeed if he were not to be prepared for a failure ofthe Negotiations; and the sincerity ofour own AdMinistration might be equally distrusted upon the same gxounds,as they omitnothing which may contri bute to supportthe honour, increase the strength, and extend the triumphs of the Country. None, how ever, can.doubt that they are animated by an earnest . . desire to put an end to the miseries _of War, if they . can, according to the words of: the late Speech froin theTbrone, meet "2a corresponding dis position on the.part of the Enemy," Besides;, rante has a&ually laid the foundation of Peace with sia; and it certainly - cannot be. less the - interest of, BONAPARTE to be,upon good terms with Great thin.• • THE Vulture Sloop of.
