It is said that the Congress of Vienna, on the 13111 of March, on hoar.
ing the news of Napoleon's return to France, declared that all the
Powers are ready to give the King of France and the French nation, or
any other Government attacked, on demand being made, the neees..
sary succour for restoring public tranquillity. There are strung reason*
for believing that the Powers which have neither inclination nor right to
interfere in our affairs will, on hearing the triumphal march of the Em.
peror through France, and his entrance into Lyons and Paris, amidst
acclamations, change their language and respect our independence.
Should it be otherwise, the French army is ready to accept the cld.
lenge —Gazette de France.
The Journal de Paris of the 4th instant contains an article
entitled "Observations on a Declaration of the Congress of
Vienna,".. It commences thus :
" is pretended that the Congress of Vienna has decl ired, on the
13th March, upon receiving the mews ot the entrance of N.!po.leon halo
France, that all the powers were ready to give to the k ot Fiance
and the French nation, or to any other government that might h:
attacked and demanding it, the ir cessary assistance for the purpoze of
restoring the public tranquility."
The writer then says, that th's Declaration must have been made on
the assumption of the following hypothesis :
ht. That the Kirig of France was still upon his Thtone ; and had
not renounced the defence ot his throne and his country.
1. That the French Nation was fncibly ievaded, and implored
aid. '
33. That the public tranquility was disturbed, and that the inter-
L. vcaticqa ot fAeigli power was necessary to IV-C4taUlish lt.

downfall of the reigning family in France.
Each of these. hypothesis is then denied. Then folio*

they may be considered as demi-official,

The Duke of Wellington is arrived at Brussels, and the

There was a report yesterday morning of the arrival of

We have papers from M.,iseilles, and accounts. to the 27th

Tuesday evening, Paris Papers of Saturday last arrived, as
well as Bordeaux Papets of the 26th ult.—The latter are im-
portant, as they contain an address from the Pt elect of the
Department of the Gironde, to the persons within his juris-
diction, informing them that his MAjestv Louis XVIII. per-
ceiving that a battle was likely to be feught undet the walls
of Paris, and wishing to avert the chances of pillage and de•
vastation, had departed to the Northern frontier. The
Prefect, therefore, announces, that the Departments of the
South will form one Government, under the Duke of An-
gouleme, and calls on the Volunteers of the National Guards
to rally round the standard of their legitimate Sovereign.—
The Paris papers arc silent on the subject, as an address so
loyal and unexpected must be extremely galling to Burma-
parte, who was still in Paris on Friday. Ney has been dis-
patched from Paris to command the army on the side of
Belgium. It is admitted that about 2000 cavalry, com-
manded by Mat moat, General Law iston, and twenty other
Generals, accompanied Monsieur and the Duke de Berri out
of France, taking the road from Estan es, in the Department
of the North, to Menin. Buonapatte, in his present situa-
tion, finds it necessary to dissemble and to exhibit symptoms
of affected magnanimity, as a proof of his moderation and
the extinction of his former rancour and hatted against the
Bouthons. Ile has rewarded one. of the National Guards
with an Eagle of the Legion of Honour, who was the one
who offered to escort Monsieur from Lyons ; and speaking
of the authors of what he calls the libels against himself. re,
quires that they should in future wri!e nothing good of hint,
nor ill of the Bourbons. The Palk Papers continued to
hold out the expectation of the return of the Empress Maria
Louisa ; her equipage set off from Versailles on the 27th last.
Letters from Rome of the 14th last, state that the Neapoli-
tan troops which surrounded that city were preparing fur an
expedition.

The Paris Papers of Saturday and Sunday last arrived on
Wednesday. Buonapatte is at length obliged officially to
admit, that a civil war against his authority has broken out
in the South. The Monikur of Saturday contains two tele.
graphic dispatches received that morning from Lyons, which
state that. on Thursday last an engagement took place at
Montelimart, in the Department of the Monte, between the
-National Guards of that Department, and a body -of the
people. According to the dispatch of the Prefect, the Na-
tional Guard consisting of 600 men, were, attacked by a
considerable body of Insurgents of. the South, who are de-
nominated rebels by the Usurper, but whom, we are told,
were dispersed in a moment. The Duke of Angouleme was
on the 29'h at Montelim Al, but it is said, made his escape.
A subsequent dispatch states, that the Alareiliois fly in all
directions, and that not a shot has nor wilt be fired. This
statement, however, contradicts the former, in which it •
was admitted there was an engagement ; but the Moniteur,
of course, is not permitted to detail or disclose the facts.
The Doke of A ugouleme, it will. be recollected, wac sent
from But deans to Nismes, to organise a force in the tear of
Buonapat te.—Of the fact of insurrections existing in the
South, a further corroboration is received by the art ival of
dispatches front Bordeaux brought to Falmouth by the
French lugger L'Esperance. In this vessel came over Col.
the Baron Labadayse, hearing dispatches from the Duchess

at Bordeaux to have arrived in. London), The accounts
