Troyes, which he reached on the 3d, BUONA.-
PARTE retreated to Nogent-sur-Seine, being
between thirty and forty miles nearer Paris,
which was, however, more directly threat-
ened by the left of the Allies, which had
out-flanked him. in the coal by Sens, than by the
victhrions corps which were following him up
from Brienne. On their right, the Allies haie
been equally successful. The twelve battalions
we heard of at Vitry, turn out to be the division
of the brave VON VOaCK, who advancing to meet
MAcnoNALo half way from Chalons, has defeated,
him at Chaassee on the Marne, and taken three
pieces of cannon and several hundred prisoners.

To the final moment the French press is the
same ; blowing hot and cold, and resorting to
every falsehood and artifice that may encourage
the people to resistance. At Dijon they are
told that the Allies " seem in general very
distrustful and feai:ful of events," while at St. Di-
zicr, they are told' the Allies " talk openly
of dismembering France." These inconsistencies
are however nothing to the Abbe MAURY, a fel-

The City is indeed in a consternation. You
will, no doubt, have heard that the Custom-
House is burnt to the ground. The fire brGke
out about six o'clock this morning, it is said, in
the Housekeeper's room, and it has already ex-
tended to the opposite houses in Thames-street,
which. are at this moment in one blaze. I fear
few of the public. records are saved, Many peti-
tions, and other papers, were found as far as
Stamford Hill and Hackney. A quantity of gun-
powder exploded soon after nine o'clock, From

be seen.

also caught fire, and were burning • rapidly when

CIVIL WAR IN NEW MEXICO.

[PROM AN AMERICAN PAPER.)

The Spanish or Creole revolutionists, with
their American abettors, having been compleC'ely
discomfited in Texas, by the loyal and royal Spa-
niards, and the affairs in the Peninsula wearing au
aspect favourable to 'Spanish independence, the.
mouth-piece of Administration, the National In-
telligencer, after having most violently abetted the
insurrection, now comes forward with a whining
declaration, that the Government of the United
States has always recognised the authority of the
Royalists ; has declared its- indisposition to aftord
the insurgents support 5 has never authorised Dr.
Robinson (their late agent in that country) to
make the invitation to insurrection which he did ;
and that " no- person was authorised by them,
directly or indirectly, to give or promise their
countenance or support in any insurrection or ar-
mament against the constituted authorities of that
country, or any other country, or territory, of a
foreign power, with which we are at peace."
Now, if •in ail this the Administration were
frank and honest; how came it, that when they
saw hundreds of the citizens of the United States,
continually embarking in war operations against
the Spanish " constituted authorities" of New
Mexico ;—authorities in peace with the United
States—that it did not, as was its bounden duty,
issue its prociarttutii;:., recalling those citizens to
their allegiance as neutrals, punishing tifeui

When Mr. SYLVESTER left 'Chittillcin, there
were at that place, Sir CUARLES STEWART, our
Minister. to Prussia , Lord Viscount CATHCART,
Ambas:sador Exttaordinary to the Emperor of
RUSSIA Mr. THORNTON, Envoy Extraordinary to

paid to Mr. SYLVESTER, on his way thro' Franee: •
The name of Lord CASTLEREAGH seemed to ani-
mate the desponding Frenchmen with the hope of
Peace. We trust their hopes will soon be realised,
and that a peace, real, beneficial, and permanent,
will ere tong be consolidated. •

that port without interruption on the 6th instant..
The intelligence she brings is, that the French
garrison at that place, after effecting a partial
inundation of the neighbourhood, left it to consult
their own safety.

ferences at Chatillon-sur-Seine, that the Count

THE THEATE!,:',S.

Diturnr-LANE.---The Comic Opera of Fonta:n-
bletna, written by 0' tELFFE, and originally brought
forth at Covent-Garden Theatre about 27 years
ago, was revived last night at this theatre, before
a tolerably numerous audience. It had the strong
musical support of BRAHAM, Mrs. DICRIONS, Mrs.
MOLINTAIN„ Miss KELLY, and Mrs. BLAND. An
apology was made by ELLas-rot; for the omission
of the Songs in the part performed by Pl:nurs,
who was indisposed. The Songs were in genera
encored. EwsTotsi was very easy and humor-
ous in Lacklan4 ; LOVEGROVE was• not less cha-
racteristic and diverting in Tallyho, and exerted
himself so effectually as to spew no trace of his
recent illness. The Opera altogether went oil
very well.
