501.T/4 QUIS DICTItS F A I.Stliot AUDICAT

LONDON, FEBRUARY 17, 'Sol.

WE this morning received Paris Papers to the
13th inst. They were brought over in a Flag
of Truce, the Captain of which reported, that
great rejoicings had taken place at Calais at the
moment of his departure, on account of Peace
having been concluded between Austria and
France. The Paris Papers of every day are
filled with rumours of the arrival of Couriers with
the Ratification of the Preliminaries by the Court
Of Vienna, but no certain information is given on
the subjea in any Article.
The length of the Debates, in the House of
Commons last night, does not allow us much
space for the contents of these Journals, which
are, however so far uninteresting, that our Read.
ers have not much to regret on • that account.
The Chief Consul has left Paris, for what pur-
pose it does not appear, and has been to St.
Quintin. He had not returned to Paris at the
date of the last Papers. His family, during
his absence, have been exposed, to dangers,
which, though the Paris Journalists attempt to
represent as accidental, may be considered by
many as connected with the plots which have
lately becn discovered against himself. On the
26th, a fire broke out in the apartment of Ma.
dame BEAUHARNOIS, the daughter of Madame
BONAPARTE, which was extinguished before it
had clone much mischief. On the following day
a fire took place in the Thud/fries. The first or
these is ascribed to a spark having fallen on a
table covered with paper, at which Madame
BEAUHARNOIS had been reading, previously to
her leaving Paris, which was on the 23d, so that
the fire must have been smothered for three days.
The latter is said to have been occasioned by a
stove setting- fire to a rafter, near which it stood.
We do not find any account of the progress
made by the Congress at Lunezille. If the in.
telligence brought by the Captain of the Flag-of
Truce be correa, this silence is unimportant. —.
The Politicians of the Continent amuse them.
selves with speculations on the fate of Eu.
rope, which; according to Letters from PraaL
fort, is now to be decided by a grand Al.
fiance, consisting of Austria, Prance, Prussia,
and Russia. Prussia does not, however, appear
to furnish any real grounds for supposing that she
is to be One of the tools employed by France
in any of her designs ; and it is curious, that
while LOUIS BONAPARTE is quitting Berlin,
after a fit of sickness, during which he saw no
one but his Physician and the French Ambassa-
dor, the Marquis de LVCHESINI, the Prussian
Minister, has left Paris. lie is gone, it is said,
to Chalons stir Marne, through which he may in-
tend to proceed to L une'ville.
The KING of NAPLES, it is said, is to be
permitted,,,on the intercession of the Court of
Vienna, to send a Representative to the Con-
gress.

The late change in our Administration was
not known at Parif, hut the rumours which pre-
ceded it, had reached that Capital by the way of
the Hague.
The French Tien Connlide were on the 11th
inst. at 63i.
