" The Prince knew that this place, tnttre_thati,
any other French sett-port, was attached to
NASAS±S, and his Empress •(particularly to the
latter) front the circumstance of the Conscription_
never having been extended to it : yet the Prince
deteimined .instantly to land there, that be might •
put the representations of the Deputies, as to,the .
renovated state of the•ptiblie mind, to the severest
test. '._The Moment the 'Eurotas anchored,. the
batteries and ships of war in the port commenced
firing salutes of cannon, and the French Admiral
(TaoanE) and General in command, with the
Mayor, Clergy, and all the Municipal Officers-,
came off to welcome the Duke, who landed
amidst the shouts, acclamations, and joyous
expresSions of thousands of persons. The
mhid of the Duke was electrified by the scene
—it. far surpassed the thoughts of. his most•
sangitine moments. He • frequently remarked,
Who'eould have suppoSed such a change?' .The
Duke Slept at Cherburg that night. About noon,
oil the foll Owing day, he set off for Paris; accom-
panied by'hiS suite and the Officers of the Eurotas.
At the outside of the gates the soldiers anti inha •
bitants erected a triumphal arch ; 'and .as the Duke
proceeded, the young women, gaily dressed with
white ornaments, strewed the way with flowers :
there was not a house in the town that did not
show.the nevo white ensign of royalty, and ac-
clamationaxent theairthiscene, indeed, touched
the ,finest sensibilities-of the heart-7-"it was affect.
ingas well as-most exhilarating. .
• The• Duke. ..continued • his journey, . almost
overwhelmed-with his feelings, to' Valognes,
place About 15 miles from Cherburg, where he--
was received in a similar manner by all descrileo.
tions of persons; of all ages. The Vicar-General
and .the. Clergy, in their canonicals, %vete wait.•
ing, supporting a triumphal arch, under which the
Duke entered the town. lie was immediately
conducted to the Church by the Clergy, where High
Mass was performed, and God Save the King' (in
Latin) was sung.. The Vicar-General then address-
ed the Duke, congratulating hitnonhis.restoratiort,
to his own country, a:HlS:tin, although the Bourbon
family had been so long absent, they were atoll times.
• present in the hearts of the Clergy and their fait'o.'
NI subjects ; that the iron hand of despotism,' a
military government, and a. cruel and ungenerous
police, bad kept down every individual,expression
of their feelings.. The Duke replied, that the sole
wish of his august Uncle and King was to diffuse
happirtess.among the French people ; that he could
not find words whereby to express the feelings of
his gratitnile for the isind and affectionate recep-
tion he had met.with.
" Here the Officers of the Eurotas left the Duke,
and the procession ; he continued on his Sourney
to Paris, attended .by a vast company of persona
on horseback. The_Duke expressed, in the hand-
,somest terms, the thanks of the Illustrious House
of Bourbon to the Officers of the Eurotas, for their
most obliging and delicate attentions to him. lie
would reach Paris in the course of Thursday last.
" Timis noble Duke is about 35 years of ate---.-of
manly and elegant manners, and possesing a vi-
goroas and well-informen mind : his heart, too,
scents it, the right place. ' Whilst at
_Cherburg he
refused a guard of honour, 'nobly replying (not-
withstanding the reputed disaffection of the' place
to • his family) that was in his Own country,
and wauted.no guard.' - Paper was paited over all
the initials of Buonaparte at Cherburg, and the
letter N, with which the Officers' uniforms were
marked, was torn off. It was in. report amp', that
BUONAPAETE had behaved in the most trithec4,
manner since be was deposed, frequentiy crying:l3,,
a child. ,They would not bear him called NA,
',OLSON, bet Vicolais, which, they say, ;is 4.7{
mime. The child called the King o fßonte, it flak
ever b.een a .prevalent belief in France, was nut his:
child, but an adopted one."

PARIS; APRIL 12.—the Day of, the 12th
April is destined to furnish, one of the .most
brilliant , pages .of the History of : France—
the Entry bf. a Desundant of I-lEt4RY. IV.
'into the City of Paris, to return thanks to

. .
God for:the, miraculous- events which have re-
' stored the Sceptre of France to the paternal
hands ,•of .the 'BOURBONS—his return to the
Palace 'Of. his Ancestors, after so many calamities.
Such is the picture which our Historians will have
to paint, and of which we are now about to give
a faint 'account.
At twelve o'clock, the Members of the Provi-
sional Government, and the Members of the Ali-
nisteritt Departments, prededed and followed
by the Municipal Body, and .by -numerous.de,-
tachments of the National Guard of. Paris, went
to the barrier of Bondy to meet his Royal High-
ness MowstEuß, brother of the King, and Lieu-
tenant-General of the Kitgdorn. A little befoee one
o'clock his Royal Highness appeared without the
Barrier, accompanied by a great number of the
Grand Officers, the Officers of his Household.;
- and a number of the Marshals of France,
whd had previously advanced •to receive him.
MONSIEUR, and all the Persons who accompanied
him, were an horseback ; his Itoyal Highness
was dressed in the uniform of the National

Guard.. • • . '
At that moment the Members of the Provi-
sional Government, preceded by the Master of
'the Ceremonies, advanced near his Royal High-
ness. The Prince of BtmEvENto, in the name of
the Provisional Government, addressed the Prince
in the following terms :
" MossteGismun,—The happiness which we
experience on thiS day of regeneration is beyond
all expression, if MONSIEUR receives, with the
heavenly bounty which characterizes his August
House, the homage of our religions attachtuent,
and of-our respectful devotion to him."
The following is nearly the answer returned
)Dy his Royal Highness : •
" GENTLEIYIENi Members of the Provisional
Government",-1 thank you for all that you have
done for our country. I, experience a degree of
emotion which incapacitates me from expressing;
what I feel.—No more . divisions—Peace and _
France..-At la'st I see it again—nothing is
ehange.d,-. except- that there is now in it one
Frenchman more."
The -.:cries of Vive le Roi! Vive MONSIEUR
Vire les .BOURBONS were heard on every side-:
Hie, Royal Highness then entered the Bar-
rier, .'and deigned to request silence, and to
interrupt the acclamations of which he was
the object. -M. Le Baron de CHARROL, Prefect
of the, -Department of the Seine, then firesented
to hisz•ROyal Highness the Municipal -Body of Pa-
ris, and pronouJced the following Speech :
NONSEIGNItUR,-After twenty years of mis-
fortunes-, France ,sees again, with transport, the
August Family which, during eight centuries, se-
cured its glory and its happiness.
" The City of Paris, the constant object of the
attachment of its Kings, considers the preseht as
one of the most brilliant it has experienced since
the commencement of the,Monarchy.
" All France sighs for the return of her King,
and she looks for peace under the paternal autho-
rity of the descendants of ST Louis,and'HENßY
IV. She expects from-them the.same love. '

" A period of disasters (which was not unpro-
ductive of glory and honour to FranceYhas not
altered the ancient generous Character of this
getaqott; nation. A tutelary Power. will reunite
all our wishes. Warriors, Magistrates, Citizens,
in a word, all Frenchmen, feel in their hearts
energy of love which. attaches them to the noble
blood of the Bouicsoss. Animated by this spirit,
they will form but one family. ,
" Your Royal Highness will accept the vows of
a wholer'nation. He will everywhere hear aecla-
)u&u:m(B; He will see hope revive in every heart ;
arid the happiness of his Country will console
Is int. for his long suffetings."
MONSIEUR heard this Speech, with that
goodness ctillich characterises a descendant of
the Great HENRY. The' PrOCESSiOI) then passed
along the street of St.. Dennis, by which
ilpassed to the, Metropolitan Church. It was
near 3 o'clock when it arrived at No Dame.—
The ChurCh, which could not, in 24. hours, be
adorned with sufficient splendour, •presented
spectacle Tar beyond. al! decoraticins. In the •
Sanctuary were assembled the Cardinals, Arch-
bishopS, and Bishops, in -Paris, and the Metro-
politan Clergy—in the choir and upper part of
the nave,, several of the principal Officers of
State, and a great number of Generals, both.
French and Foreign. The nave 'and the cross
aisles were filled with an enormous crowd of spec-
tators awaiting 'the Prince. At length his Royal
Ilighnes arrived.

The C4nons, in Chapter, attended S. A. R.
at OA great gate: 'lie was there received under
.a tapestry, and his first motion, after being so
placed, was, to thrpw himself
.upon hiS knees
to return_thanks to GOD. The -angelic expres-
sion which was painted at this moment on the
auv,ust fe„rurs of. the Vrince, evinced that his
great soul only conceived ideas of love and gene-
rosity v#,-is easy to see that MONSIEUR prayed
to GOD for the happiness Of the French Nation.

-The enthusiasm with which the French Were
etiolated was rapidly communicated to the Ros-
e 41, Atf3triall, Prussian, `4Englith, Spanish, and
Portuguese Officers, placed in the choir of the
' Cathedral. Many of them shed tears of joy. It
seemed that all Europe represented by the elite of
French and foreign soldiers, swore at the moment
that peace) the benefits of- which are to heal the
profound wounds of France. Our Allied Generals
expressed, by the most lively demonstrations, that
Europe will henceforth form only one family.
The old servants of the Prince approached him,
shedding tears, and kissing his hands, and, one
look from •MoNsmun repaid theM all the evils
which they had suffered.
The 'Canons had placed themselves ins the
sanctuary. Te Deum was executed in the grand
orchestra. It, was followed by Dominesal6untlac
regent, to which every heart beat in unison.
The ceremony being finished, his- Royal
Highties was. 're-conducted under the canopy,

those whichqook place on his arrival.' lie mount-
ed !cis horse, and the escorr; conducted him to
.the palace of the Thuillerieg,, amid the trans-

selves to the mOst lively enthusiasm.
At the moment. of the eptry of the Prince
into the PalaCe;the White. Flag- was hoisted on
the Pavilion, in the centre, amid the ionumerable
crowds whielreovercd the Gardens of thi
'cries. His Royal Highness, before entering his.
apartments, ran th;•ough all the ranks of the
National Guard, with which the Palace was filled,
conversed. with the greater part of them, shook,
hands with them with- affability, and spoke to
them in the most loving strain. HiS.
Royal highness, -in. a»stver to an obseiq•a-
tion that he 1111Ist be much fatigued, replied, _
It was impossible, it was the first_ day's happi-
nesg he had experienced for 25 years.'
Int the eycning the greater
.part of the public
edifices, add a great number of private !menses,
were spontaneously illuminated, and decorated
with ingenious. emblems.
At the Theatre Francais, ilk the evening, was
performed the piece called The:Hulqing Party of
Henry IV which had not been perform.: for 20
years tvelote. The allusions which it presented to
the existing state of affairs were eagerly seized
,
atm cheered with indescribable enthusiasm. The
national air of Five Henry IV. was joined in by
the audience with exclamatians of Vice le Roi !
Vice Monsieur'. and in the scene where the health
of the good Henry is drank, the spectators, amid
the loudest acclamations, made the performers
follow it up. by giving the healths of the King and
his august brother, and of the Emperor Alexander
and the Allied Sovereigns.
The Emperor ALEXANDER had received a De
-
/notion from the French _lttstitute. M. C. LA-

bleau, with some men belonging to his old guard.
It is only within these two days that the Paris

their contents, a great number of the military has-
tened to leave Buonaparte. The proclamation of
the Emperor Alexander, the Acts of the Provi-
sional Government, &c. were not placarded at
Fontainbleau till last Saturday. Buonaparte was
still at that place yesterday, at noon ; but it is

pleasure.

PARIS, APRIL IQ.

Letters from Blois inform us of a hoar which
has been played oif at that town.. A Proclamation
had been published by torch-light, signed Mon-
Clarl:e, Mole, and coniorts, which de-
clares the City of Paris ont at the law ; promises
the soldiers of Buonnparte six hours pillage ; and
announces that he is marching against that rebel
city at the head of 150,000 men. Tliesc
men have been keeping the carnival in the holy
Week.

The following .is the speech addressed by Mr
Ch. Lacretclle, President of the Institute of France
.to his Majesty the Emperor ontassia _

Sirc,---Dtfringthe long series of wars into which the am-
bition of one man plunged ns, the-Institute of Pvance has
been constantly at peace, and in an amicable inf-ercoursc
with the men of litters, the artists of Europe. We have not
despaiied of the progress of civilization. at during this
time, Sire, aided by your august Allies,/by the worthy suc-
cessor of those two philosoiibieal Elinulrors Josepli and Leo-
pold, by the worthy heir of the great trederick, he the Prince
Regent of England, and- the English nation, ware la-
honring amid the. din of aruss in bringing to perfection social
benevolence, the object of the wishes of all our s_tges. Never
did this benevolence accomplish such miracles, lint itever.did
,efounate- from ruute noble hearts. Attempts had been made
to persuade' us, `;ire, that when a conqueror, you would nut
spare the monuments of art among us. Sire, we never be-
lieved it. Von. do not place your glory in destroying. Our
monuments 'are preserved. This' enefit, so previous to the
institute, almost vanished before such benefits as no So'vereign
ever dispensed to. the world. Von have saved Paris and
France. With our liberty we reeovcr the King whom our
wishes called for.

• We were always a proud nation; we shall become again an
Affectionate nation. Tbe love of biters has been to the King
whom we now prodaiin what it has been, Sit 4•, to your noble
soul; Letters, which hive sdprated biro in adversity,
counsel him upmi the throne. IVU will soften by our can's
the remembi Alice of his past-pains, as Ire will alleviate our
too recent tu:••fortunes. • We snail respect his pov,•er ; the
,heir of St. Louis and Henry IV. will know how to -lop thoie
wise, boundaries of power which are frequently its support.—
A father is never better received among his factily than
when it has been very unfortunate during his absence.

- ,
These words,. Sire, tednable oar emotion; our happille,,S is
your benefit, your COINUrit. You have taught hierccs a new
way to triumph. People are easily .deteivect to. respect to
greatness; the misfortunes of the world have too titz.vis ate-
tested this truth ; but what hetirt can be deceived in re;pct
to magnauitnity? ilenceforwat•d people will distrust all ad-
miration that is accompanicil by terrnr. • Admiration cannot
be well founded but when it is wiug!cd with loco. Oursis
very pure;. we do Out praise, Sire, we bless.

'The proprietors of several journals had been
stripped orthe whole, or part of their property,
by Buonaparte's police : the Journal de c.P.;mpire
has recovered its rights by a decree of the Provi-
sional Goveinment ; the others will soon recover
theirs. The tyranny of ,Bnonaparte extended,
to all kinds of property,; nothing escaped his
avarice and .cupidity ; he coveted every thing, he
seized every thing ; the most sacred institutions
were not secure from his usurpations.
One of the most useful and prosperous,esta-
blishments in Paris was that of Saint.Piritute, for
old people of 70, of both sexes ; it was managed
with equal prudence, economy, and liberal:ty ;
and from eleven persons with which it began, it
had in seven or eight years increased ,to 220, •
wholly by the vigilant- management of, its foun-
ders. Well, the same man who said " there. are
in France some ham People who live on their
estates with 30 or 40,000 francs per annum ; I
shall get at them." - This man envied the happi-
ness of the old people at Saint Perrine,, and. the
founder of the establishment the honour of hav-
ing erected it. He took it from hiM without dis-
cussing his rights, or regarding his remonstrances,
turned it into an Hospital, and reduced to distress
persons, many of whom were connected with -the
first families in France ; took from him even his
furniture, his plate, his income in Government
securities, and turned him out of•a house which
he hired for his own abode.

The founder had the dangerous courage 'to
complain. He was persecuted in various ways; he
was without resources, and being ill, was refused
a bed in an hospital—he wh6'had founded bile
for 200 victims of the Revolution. It was not
enough for the tyrant. Mr. Duahayle was taken
from the asylum a friend bad A fib rd e d him, and
privately thrown into prison, upon straw, with
no food except bread and-water; and had not the
victorious, and. 'protecting arms of the Allies ret
venged humanity, and restored France to libet'ty
and Justice, we cannot say what fate was in ret.
serve for him.—VpuTnal de Paris, April 12.)
