LETTER OF M. SENATOR nARTHELEMY OM VIE (DECREANCE)

FORFEITURE OF TIRE TrtRODIE.
Gentlemen, Members of the Provisional Government—The Se•
nate Commi,sions me to request you to signify to the French Peo-
ple to-morrow, that the Senate, by a Decree passed in its sitting,
this evening, has declared, that the Emperor Napeleon and his fa-
/nay have forfeited all right to the Throne, anti consequently ab-
solved tli: French people and the atmy from their oath of allegiance.
This Act will be sent to yon tobrnorrow. with the motives and rea-
SOUS of it. I have the honour to salnte your
• The President of the Senate,
BARTfinamir.'

PAan, APRIL t (Ralf-past nine in the eveuingo)—Nothing is
more interesting and more affecting than what has passed this even'
in at the andience which the Emperor of Russia has given to the
%elate. After having received the homage of this body,
6 A man who called himself my ally. (said the Emperor Alexan.
der), entered my states as ati unjust aggreasor ; it is against him that
I have made war, not against Prance; I am the friend of the
French people; what you have just done redoubles this sentiment;
it is just, it is wise, to give to France strong and liberal institu-
tions, which may be conformable to the prese..• state of k.lsse..-
ledge ; my sillies and myself tome only to protect the liberty of
your decision'
The Emperor stopt a moment, then his Majesty continued with
the most affecting emotion—
'As a proof of the durable ,alliance which I mean to contract
with your nation,/ restore to it 01 the French prisoners who are
in Russia* ; the Provisional Government hal already asked this
of me; I grant it to the Senate in consequence of the resolutions
which it has taken to day.
• The Senate withdrew, penetrated with sentiments of gratitude
and of the highest admiration.
* The number of prisoners amounts to near 400,000 men.

%;ENERAT. ORDER ISSUED BY MARSHAL COUNT BARILAY DE
TOLLYI GENERAL-IN-CHIEF OF THE COMBINED RUSSIAN
AND PRUSSIAN ARMIES.
Sohliets !—Yonr perseverance and bravery have delivered the
Vrenit notion, oppressed by a Tyrant who acted only for himself, and
who forgot what he owed to an esteemed and generous people, The
French nation has declared itself fur I,s ; our CHUM.: is become their's;
and our magnanimous Monarchs have promised them protectiou amid
support. Fro o this moment the French are our friend. ; le.t your arms
destroy the small number of unf prtimates who rill surround the anibi-
.tious iVapoleon ; but let the cultivator aad peaceable inhabitant be
treated with consideration and friendship, as allies united by the same
.1.11 crests.

Given at head-quarters, Paris, April 2, 1814.

The General of Division Count Legrand has notified to the Provi-
sion:ll Government his adherence to all :he measures that have been
talien by the Senate.
Toe persons enoloyed in the Treasury, and in several other pfildic
dep:uinients, who had nut . .ceived atiy salary for three months, were
paid yesterday.
The body of market women, nccordine to rotciont custom, this morn-
ing presented themselves ut the lt,del of the Pritice of Br nevento, and
solicited the honour of preseinittu a tiosevay to the Emport:r Alex older.

accepted their nosegay with the most graceful and touching affahilvy : -
in the intoxication of their joy and happiness, they made the air re-
sound with prolonged shouts of " Long live the great AU-sander ! ,
Long live the Allied Sovereigns ! Long live Louis XVIII! Long live
the Bourbons !"
A great number of youtle men, both on foot and on ho-sehadt, with
cockades in their huts, and beefing white flags; had yesterday the ho-
nour of being admitted to an audience of the King or Prussia. Th.,
departed full of veneration for the virtues of that illustrious Sove-
reign, so beloved by his brave subjects, and so worthy of being so.
Versailles has aimed the example of the Parisianc. No sooner
was it delivered like them, then it recollected that it had been the re-
sidenCe of Kings. It will send a deputation to the Provisional Gos
vernment, to express to it its wishes.
We learn front all the districts adjoining the capital, that the con.
scripts who were on their march to join the army of Buonapartr are re- ,
ttirning to their homes A great nuniber of others daily abandon his
standard. Many villages have already presented the affecting spec-,
tacle of mothers embracing with tears their sons whom they believed to
be dead ; they reenter their homes with bonglis in their hands, co-
vered with white ribbands, and shouting " give le Ttoi ! Down with
the tyrant l" Paris is d lily receiving within its walls soldiers who will
no longer shed their blood for the ferocious ambition ut a single man.
They Are received with tenderness:' every one hastens to supply their
wants, and to efface the long snfferings which they have experienced.
A crowd of distinonished youth was repairing the whole of yesterday,
to the house of M. Cberles Noalles, in the faubourg of tit. Honore, to
enrol their names in the list of Royal Guards.
It is M the Senator Lamloreschts, end not M. Garet as some Tour.
mils hare announced, who is charged with the drawing up the plan of
the new emstitution. _ _ .

-
The following addresq, signed by a grelt tititabcr of thesinhabitant,;
was this day posted upon all the wails of Paris :
TO THEIR MAJESTIES THE EMPEROR OF RUSSIA AND
THE KING OF PRUSSIA.

Si R EB,—Paris is (recopied by your triumphant armies.
Receive the homage the most flattering to gener,us cenquerors, the
reward of victory, the most pleasing and the most rarer—the beuedic-
iirireof the vanquished.
The vanquished, all ! that appellation, which does not however ex-
clude every idea of glory, cannot belong to us.
Our wishes invited you ; they seconded your holy crusade against the
sc,iuree of nations, ag:iinst that Monster, an alien to our eounlkil. *ht,,
raised by a good .fortune of which he was unworthy, to the helm of a
State torn by factionw; had perverted the energy of a generous people, •
had alm.ed that energy in order f iolishls to declare war against the
liberty of the world, and even, go to speak, against the human race it-
self ; against that MOllider, to whom by way of eminence it was given
to dispeople end destroy ; who, from the Baltic to the Pyrenuees, tore
children from their parents to make them the iwitnitllCßlS or ,the victims
of hi% devouring tyranny, and compelled even ;fathers to put up ?Vitriol
against the success of the arms of their sons.
These prayers have been heard by Providence, and -realised by your
brave armies. You triumph, Sires, but we are not vanquished ; Ise are
delivered, and your triumph shall be the eternal object of our gra-

titurie.
Deliverers of our unhappy co-ntry, deign to accomplish your walk,
and .o MI up the measure of,yonr benefits.
France cannot enjoy repo.e, she cannot. resume her place in the rank
of the other European nati,nts, she cannot (we say it frankly) inspire
them with confidence in her treaties, but under the tutelar shade of le.
eitimate authority.
Ah ! at least, timid long and culpable errors, this justice•shall at
least be done us, that 9:u Frenchman (bred to sera !anal" on the
thrown of Louis XVI.
The brother of that tinfortunato—of that sainted monarch—his le-
gitimate successor. the descen,tint of the good Henry, the Sovereign
of the French, is not yet amoini us.
Permit. Sires. that tinder; your auvices, a deputation of faithful
Frenchmen go to throw themselves at his fret—to offer to him an ex-
piatory homage—to beg him to restore to FrAnce the presence of her
King, and to fix with yrur Alaje,ties in his heneeloith purified capital
the unalterable bases of the tralpiillity of Europe.
