On the subject, and upOn the suggestion of the
hest informed and warmet of the friends of the
'''ußßoNts, we must state, that tlre plan is altoge-
ther destitute of feasibility and good foundation.
No arms' can be sent from this country without
the permission of Government, .and' an Order in

means to the Royalists therefore,' private exer-
tions might be used to further and aid'the public

gme that it could sanction that in anrsub-

We' trust this suggestion* will have the. effect of
Illencing a discussion upon which it cannot be

SECOND PDMON

SUN OFFICE, HALE-PAST ONE.

French Papers to the 13th have reached Town,
being one day later than those of which the pub-
lic are already in possession. We have not seen
them, but we rely on a friend who run over their
contents in a hasty manner, that the Paper of
the I`2lth announces in effect the following intelli-

Bence :

The Parisians are assured that BUONAPARTE
had- defeated MarshaflkucHE a, and taken 12,000
Prisoners, and thirty-one pieces of Cannon. it is
admitted that three French General Officers had
been wounded; VICTOR, GROUVELLE, (not Gaou-
cuv, as stated yesterday by mistake), and LAVAL.
This is the magncation of the Action at Craone
of the ith, and its results.

On the other hand, a Hague Courant of the 14th
has been received, which states that the gallant
Ikucti ER had completely defeated BUONAPA RTE
on the Ilth, with the loss of all his artillery, and
that the Tyrant had fallen back on Paris with the
wreck of his army, reduced to only 15,000 men.
Upon this news we place more reliance than we
usually do on intelligence througli the same chan-
nel. All previous 'cirennts•t flees tend to. give it
the air of probability. It may indeed be exky-
gerated, but it the main tact of the defeat be true,
we need care little for a difference of . ten, or
twenty, or thirty thousand men, in the details.
Omnium has advanced from 252 to 27. -

TWO O'CLOCK.

We have since seen the Moniteur of the 12th.—
Our statement is correct. Even from the details
in the French account, it would appear that BLU-
CHER had not beeti more severeljj annihilated on
this occasion than on former occasions, when be
had the best of the battle.

We have this moment received a private and
most cheering letter from near Rheims. —lt
describes the condition of , the French army ;
Fatigued by rapid and forced marches ; exhausted
and 'worn out by•everlasting action—and i❑ a
most deplorable state, from the want of even the
common necessaries of life. We can depend on
thi's information ; it ,is neither fallacious nor
overcoloured.
