the ends of their miisquets with flowers, and the shouts, to
which they hare so often been faithless, were again heard on
all sides. The Fan xbourg St. Antoine, the focus of a hun-

pair to Sr. Helena, to reside near Buonaparte.—The French
Commandant at Montpelier has addressed a Proclamation to
the inhabitants of the district, which goes in some degree to

war in the south of Fiance. This is the first mention made

Mails from Brussels and Tiamburg-h arrived on Monday;

state of the Eastern departments, we are informed by the
Cerman Papers, that Lecourbe has recommenced hostilities
against the Allies; that a heavy cannonading has been beitrd

The Emperor of Russia and the two Archdukes, with
their suites, occupy the magnificent mansion of the Duchess
de Bourbon, in the Fauxbourg St. Vonore, the gardens of
which extend from the house to the Champs Elysees.
There the Emperor holds a levee on Tuesdays and Fridays,
from ten in the forenoon till half-past one. At two, his
Majesty and family sit down to dinner, which commences
with a quantity of oysters. After these comes soup, and
thus the dinner proceeds by dishes, not by courses, one after
another till the whole is served up. The desert and wines
are, however, all put on together. About five, the dinner
concludes, when the Emperor retires to his study, takes
coffee there alone, and afterwards occasionally visits the
theatres. His Majesty goes to bed at an early hour, rises at
five in the morning, and rides or walks till half past eight,
when he breakfasts.

" without delay to the measures necessary to execute these
dispositions, and it is our particular resolution, by a speedy
convocation of the two Chambers, to enable the St tie.-Ge-
neral to execute the legislative power. The oath which we

persists in his defence he is to be made responsible for the
consequences.—Verdun has hoisted the white flag, but re.
fuses to admit the Allies.

The whole family of the Buonaparts appear to be dis-

he seems to remain undistw bed ; and he deserves in every
state a quiet and honourable asylum, not only on account
of his private qualifies, but on account of the mild exercise
of his authority when he tilled the functions of Sovereign.

the King of Wurtemburg to reside with his wife in that

appears they had received the account of the total de eat of

his friend in that neighbouthoed, and which is vouched to
be authentic Sir G. Cockburn and his pris neis per-
fectly understand each other: at first they endeavoured to
get him to give up his cabin to nuoosparte, and would not
desist till he positively said he could not spaie it. Thu first
day the Ex-Emperor and his companions dined with him,
and ate a very hearty dinner. In the evening, they pl,posed
cards, and played at Vingt un till eleven o'c'ock The next
day the sea was rough, and the General sick, and not ready
at the dinner hour. Sir George did not wait, but sent him
his dinner, with a kind of message of regret for his indispo-
sition. He has given them to understand, that so long, as
they consider themselves his prisooeis. be shall treat then
with every attention as his guests; and they are cunning
enough to avail thccuselves of this notice
