Yesterday at St. Cloud, Madame Polignac threw herself at
the fest of the 'Emperor, a: he was passing through the
Hall whzre he receives the Ministers to the apartment of
toe Fineness, and supplicated him fur the pardon of her hug-
bn.l She had been fiorn six in the morning with the Em-
press, who, in the kindest and moat 'feeling mariner, had not
only supported cud micouraged her, but had eontin eel the means

in a place which women are not permitted to tuner, occasioned
✓uins surprise in his lonic, ial Majesty, when, bursting Otto
tee", she informed him that .he was Madame Polignac. The
Emperor stopped, regard,. I her with attention, and expressed
hit astonishment that Si. Dc Polignac, whom he remembered
as the c mil:anion of his youth, at the Military School, shnuld
beet engaged in such an odious transaSion. Madame Po!ignac,

the term. oas of her gratitude, he said, " They are very col•

criminal mil dl-emitrived undertakings. They cannot justify
the exposure of their young ; eople to dangers wh.ch they do

EXTRACT OF A DISPATCH FROM flit CAPTAIN
GENERAL OF MARS IMICO, DATED PLLVIOSZ 25TH,
YEAR 12, FIRRUARY 14.

Commodore Hood employs all his force in the blockade of
Martinique, and by means of the great number of his light
vessels he endeavours to surprise some insulated parts of the
coast ; but hi, blockade gives us as little uneasiness as his in-
cursions. One of his galliots the Kent, was sunk by the bat-
tery of Cape Solomon, in the night betw.rsai Cie I ttli and 15th
of this month. Two negrees escaped by swimming, the :rest
of the crew, sad 37 men of the Garrison of Dominica, with
three officer., perished. The Vigilant cotter blew up before
Saint Pierv.r, on the 16th at noon, and can taa n. flit of the 17th
all the beats on the station, having been assembled to at-
tempt, with SOO men, a coup•de main on a small camp which
1 hal estaalislaerl at Cerun, to proted the quarters of Diatnant
and Saint Luce, the former pest, consisting of forty sailors,
fell upon tlis body of szarnen and soldiers killed the
Lieuteriaot of the Centaur, who coin in orded the evpsidirion,
an ogres of the troops, two serjeants, e.g.it or ten sailor', and
wounded at least forty.

Tho repent, .n. 41: by six nrisoners, was confirmed by the
offic ,r of the last flag of iluce sent to hie If the company of
the grenadiers of th,.• marine, that of the 84th denii-hr,gade,
and that of the oat...nal guard, could have arrived in time, that
is to say, mad the enemy made the smallest resistaisce, not one
of them woull have escaped ; and, what will appear very extra-
ordinary, Citmen Minister, is, that we did not lose a siiitl•
non, nor ind we any wounded, because our detachment had
time to throw themselves into the cane fields and bushes which
Wider the high road. The attempt of the 19th on Dunkin k
Point was not more successful ; the boats retired on the first
musket shut, and the cries heard on boatel, Icaec us 111.1 doubt
that a great many were wounded.
No one can be better satisfied than I am with the courage of
the troops of Martinique. I cannot bestow two high praises
on the fidelity, seal, and courage, of the peu,le of colour, who
hove all %hewn themselves re. I.y w 'ally of tins proteCtion of
Goveniment.
We have some sick in these Antilles, but the number is
very laconsidessUle, in companion with those destro ed by the
epidetay at the English colonies.
