trEnghein, is about to appear among you ; Mon-
sieur, the Brother .of Louis XVIII., and his illus-
trious Sons, have already preceded him in the
East, South, and West of. France ; they make
knoWn the paternal views of, your King, and gua-
rantee to you, -in his name, the restoration of
happiness -and peace, under a ''navernm-ent WhiCh
shalt be the protector of the • lams and of public
freedom

" The cry of fire la Roy, so dear to our fore-
fathers,- rises on all sides, and re-echoes• in all
hearts !. The White Flag waves over your towns.
It wakes known to the inhabitants the return of
order, the revival of commerce, the security of
Ninnies, the union of Frenchmen.

" Ye shall no longer have to dread War, the
Conscription, the odious grievance of the Conso-
lidated Duties every thing that causes the misery
of the Nation, shall cease with the existence of

[le Tyrant:

Tile king wilt secpre to the imperial guards,
and a!1 the generals, officers,

" Frenchmen ! such is the eminter-revolution

It is with un&omtnon t-"atisfiiciion we call OF'

explaining this point :4--

" DEAL, MAIICH 25.—The heavy firi.4'

Peril, on the brink of which we have slind-
q('-1.61 for the last tea (lAys—the peril of a, corn-
Pr9mise with the bloody tyrant who has so long
l'rtfed it over prostrate France. The danger from

pith the fell Corsican :—Ccntanion itself, hug-

,;,..We have • French Papers to the 22d (last Tues-
Oity .
UP to which dat no-signature of Prelimina-
s was known at Paris : and on that day the
IluPhlation of London were rejoiced by the pub-
c`ltiall of an Official Bulletin and Gazette Extra-
c'rdinary by the British Government, notifying
the
g lorious news of the Bourbon Cause having
een proudly, and openly, andwidely espoused by
a most important portion of the Population of
F'a'ke. It is i'mpossible that this gratifying in-
tell;genee :should not have umade im way to the
Commanders and the Allied Negociators

it is -equally imposible that, it ,shotild not have.
Pr°llueed that pause in the proceedings of the
lat-
t~r'Yhkh, in our mind, is alone necessary for the
:74throw of the Despot and the salvation of
"`"rope. We could not help fearing lest BuoNA.-
_
possessed of information superior to that
‘31.111e Allies on the subject of events in the South
°l' Prance, should act upon that knowledge. and
(Itlude them into some agreement by whiCh they

battle of Orthies, and A fortnight from the trium-
phal entrance, into Bourdeaux, of the Son-in-Law
of

succeeded. _and. 'the most brilliant hopes have

The 'contents of the French Papers are very sa-
tisfactory. It is pretended, that the return of
BuotqAPARTE-towards the east and south-east of
Paris, and the occupation of Rheims and Chalons,
had convened the grand Allied force to retreat
from Pont, Nogent, and .Arces-stir-Aube, on-the
17th, and resume its positions successively at
Troyes and Bar-sur-Aube. It thus appears that
there must have been some mistake in the intelli-
gence that Prince SCHWARTZENBERC was ad-
vancing on Chalons. His course was direct
towards
,the Capital, and not lateral, on his right
wing ; and the present affairs is distinctly a
second and improved edition of the game
formerly played. But BLUCHER is left by the
Tyrant in a much more imposing and dan-
gerous condition than he was in the former iu-
stance, inasmuch as the victory of Laon is tar
different from the hard-fought' action of Mont-
mirail. Noyon.is in the bands of the Veteran ;
Compeigne has been attacked ; and there is every
reason to believe that the Advances of the Sile-
sian Army on the North of Paris, are carrying on
by the Seulis road (which is a line east of that of
Soissons) so succesfully, as to threaten the very
existence of the Capital.

The same reinforcements received at Rheims,
and the same reinforcements from SUPHET: at
Lyons, are mentioned over and over again, as if
the'repetifion of their names could multiply-these
corps,-and thus beat the Allies. •

An article from Meaux, states, that Colonel
Stmoti had ,sounded the tocsin,- and marched to
clear the country from that City to Sezanne, of
the brigands which infested it. This sheers, that

we were accurate in our supposition, that the
communications between BUONAPARTE and Paris
had been intercepted on the Lower -Marne. '

But,, perhaps, the most impudent piece of chi.
,anery attempted in these papers, is an assertion
that " the Marshal Duke oi DALMATIA has made
a movement in advance. His head-quarters are
beyond Conchez at Catlin."

Well clone, MONSIEUR! If SOULT goes on ad-
vancing in this' manner, lie will soon beat Lord
WELLINGTON all the way to Paris,, and have the
glory besides of entering the Capital first ! !

LANGERON is said to be dead—so was WitEDE

The Extracts from the Dutch Papers are some-
what important. humours of the vacillation of
the Eniperor FRANCIS had prevailed, even in his
own Capital, but, we trust, with RS little founda-
tion there as here. It is ,true be may not desire
to go so far as others ; hut to hint at his joining
the foe of mankind and the scourge of his race, is
to suspect him of treachery and mad:gess too gross
to merit one moment's attention.

The port 'of Leghorn is open, and a Provisional
Government for the family of ESTE haV•e abo-
lished Conscription, and all the Corsican's odious
rneastues at Modena.

A Mail from Holland, brought to 1-Lirwielt by
the Dille, Capt. SHERLOCK, from llelvoet, is just
arrived at the Post-Office. The packet sailed on
Thursday morning, at half-past eleien o'clock. •

" BRUSSELS,' MAacn 17.—We 'have news from
th.e•Head-quarters of Marshal BLucnca up to the
12th at noon, at which time be still occupied the
strong position before Laon, while his light
troops made excursions far and wide, even to,the
neighbourhood of Paris'. The army of the Duke
of RAGUSA had retreated 10 miles after the bloody
battle of the 9:11 and 10th.
!` On the sth the French were not in posses-
sion of Geneva, and had been repulsed with loss
in several actions."

Mr. SMITH, the Messenger, arrived in town
this day, and a report, in consequence, prevailed
that he had brought dispatches from the Crown
Prince Of SWEDEN. The simple fact is, that
he came from Gottenburgb, "where be has been
relieved by another Messenger.

The Mosquito schooner, which has brought in-
telligence from Bermuda, to the 26th ult. has con-
veyed information from the United States, trans-
mitted by the Acteeon, Which had arrived from
the Chesapeake on the preceding day. The dis-
cussions in Congress had been animated, hut the
majority continued with the Executive Authority.
The Embargo Law seems to have' been carried
into effect so completely, that few., if ally, captures
had been made by the British navy. Sir JOHN
WARREN was at Bermuda when the Mosquito left
the Island. Messrs. CLAY an d• RUSSELL had not
taken their departure,' and it was not expected
that they would sail for Europe for some weeks,
but the precise time had not been ascertained.
Advices from -Holland state, that the brubartl7
ment of Bergen-op-Zoom had been recommen-
ced, with the hope that the present attempt will.
be more successful thanthe'fimner. In the night
of the 14th the discharges were confirmed for
four hours, supported by a train of heavy artillery,
which had lately arrived frorri the army of the
CROWN PRINCE.

Since'writing our observations for the day, we

learn, that SMITH, the Messenger, passed through

the Head-quarters of the CROWN PRINCE, on the

20th, at, Leige, but he was about to advance.

The country ship Rrsdnor, Capt. Wm. BERRLEY,
arrived at Portsmouth the 25th inst. direct from

The Marquis of Wellington was in the pengal

down to Saugur in a few days, to complete her

cargo.
