PARIS. JAN. 13.—We have already said, that
the enemy committed- many Excesses on their
march. New letters from the department of the
Saone and Loire confirm the news. On the 6th
the enemy entered Lons-le-Sauriier to the.;num-
ber of about 800 men. They had givem*tice (?f-
-.their coming on the 3d, and dernanded - rations ftlsr,
4000 men. It seems to be a part of their systeim
to exaggerate the number of their:forces. .:Theiv•
first eare was to take possession a the public
money, and to impose on private persons requi-
sitions of every kind. They carry away by force
the corn, the cattle, cloth, linen, boards, in sh6rt
every thing that can satisfy their wants, or tempt
thir
The Allies have taken poksession of Lons-de--
Saunier, in the name of the Emperor. of Austria..
His arms have been put up at the Prefecture, and
at the Salt-works.

On the sth, the enemy pushed some parties
towards Bletterans and Beaurepaire. An express
sent from Lous-le-Saunier announced their ar-
rival at Louhans, and bespoke quarters for four
thousami men. All at once, at night-fall, these
detachments fell back on the heights of 'Mon-
taiga!, where they placed cannon, and posted
themselves. Lons-le-Sannier has been evacuated.
It seems, that these measures have been taken in
consequence a a dispatch directed to the Prefect
of the Jura, in which the speedy arrival of a corps
of French troops was announced ; which dis-
patch was intercepted by the enemy. On the 6th
they had quitted Louhans.
The motions of the column which has pene-
trated to Geneva are slow. The enemy ore not
at Bourg.

The castles Of Jour and Salins bold but. The
town of Salins has been very ill-treated.
On the 6th, at nine in the morning, a column
entered Dole, and took pdssession of it in the
name of the it mperor of Austria. The strength
of this column is estimated at about 7 or 8000 men.
The cavalry is in good condition, but the in-
fantry is composed of yotkng recruits badly ex-
ercised.

The enemy are guilty of many excesses which
nothing can justify. A farmer in the environs of
Beaurepaire, expresses himself thus :

" They were said at first. to be tame and gentle ;
now they chew roughness and malice. On every
occasion they clap a pistol- to your breast, to
know where you have
.concealed your valuables."
The Mayor of Villevieux, who was not able to
.
collect in two hours 200 setiers. (a seder is twelve
bushels) of oats, was cruelly beaten.- -,The corn-I
mune of Selleres has been very ill treated ; several
of the inhabitants are dead of the blows they have
received.

This, then, is the peace which our enemies
bring. This is the moderation announced in their
proclamations. They have thrown Off the mask ;
they no longer take the pains to dissemble their
projects. It is to tear France in pieces, to seize
on our provinces, to subject us to a foreign yoke,
that they have invaded our territory ; that they
have let loose upon us those swarms of barbarians
who live only on pillage, and are strangers to every
sentiment of humanity.
Can the French nation be mean-spirited enough
to stiffer such outrages to go unpunished ? Can
there be among us men debased enough to he in-
sensible to the national honour ? Cau we repase
