' The ship Deepatch, capt. Lnﬀon, arrived
yesterday from Bortleauic, which place she
left on the 20th of ]une.
We learn from the sic-aptainsi and passen
gers, that no favorable change had taken
place in France relative to American assairs.
Bonaparte still continued his hostility to
this country 'Mrsi. Armstrong had not yet
left France ; butsi was waiting the pleasure
ofthe emperor. , ss
- A few days before the sailing nfthe des
patches Bonaparte was at Paris, his time
was principally occupied, with his new em
press, and attending little to the cares of
state. A bundle of state papers had been
sent to him at the empreSs' private apart
siment, by the Duc de Cadort, but he ecnt
them back unopened.
The Paris paperr. contain the particulars
of an assair which hacl'excited considera
ble interest.-—General Saracen, an'officer in
the French army at Boulognc, bribed :]
sisherman at that place to put. him on board
of an English man of war, at anchor on
the outside' of the harlmr, & succeeded in ss
eﬀectingsihis escape. Up to the time of his
leaving Boulognc, Saraccn's conduct had
excited no susPicion, and he had regularly
corresponded with his commandcr in chief.
