another, with a' .ti executions, gone over to
Boonaptrte's 9 tand..rd. ‘tho yesterday evening

a jaunt to St. Cloud.
" The too great goodness of Louis Xl9ll. has
worked his own downfall. Three hundred thou-
sand prisoners, whom his restoration brought
back twin England, Hungary, or kind
%rho, without hnu,. would have remained for ever
in captivity, far trout their native land, have raised
their sacrilegious l).nds against him, and given to,
the world a specimen of the blackest ingratitude.

" Yogi have doubtless read the Moniteur of to-

day : nothing can be faiher from the truth than
its representations. When Buonaparte entered
the capital, surrounded by his'hands, all the inha-
bitants, full of alarm, had shut themselves up in
their houses ; all the doors and windows were
shut. Buonaparte, iu his proclamations, speaks.
of btinging to us happiness ; but what does this
mean but the conscription and foreign and civil
war-?: France will (bus again fall a prey to the ha-
tred ;Ind vengeance of other nations, and must
I. contend with the united force of all sovereigns.
Twenty millions of 'men have suffered themselves
to be subjugated by a handful of banditti."

PRIVATE LETTER VEONI PARIS, 23D MARCH, AT

SIX O'CLOCK,
" I teas not able to write to you yeFtetday, as'
I promisyd, beingc;lled upon duty, as .a member
of the National Guard. I returned ho:ne au hour
ago, and though much fatigued, I has;en to fulfil
niY promise. The disposition of the l'arisians,
and tr; authentic accounts, that of all tue iuha-
bitant;ot France, is still die s,atne. 'Weary of re-
havelookyd upon the runid progress
of Napoleon with a kind of panic terror, which
has paralysed. every arm. I- have seen Buona-
• patte— I will not say in the midst of the French
-
troops (for all those by whom he is surrounded
are unworthy of the name of Frenchmen), but in
the midst of his satellites, of that kind of bri-
gands, for whom the name of country has no
more that charm which was formerly the basis of
the French character, and constituted the strength
of the nation : I have seen, I say, this monster,
who brings all the evils that issued from the box
of Pandora, traversing with a haggard eye the.
rank of those phalanxes, formerly invincible, and
---the terror of nations-, now astonished themselves
at obeying a Chief whom they arrad *aid' more
than . they, esteem him. Never, during. the ten
Years that I have had an opportunity of Observing
on such occasions the features of this monster,
did I ever see them so disordered and s,) horrible.
Li the midst of his greatness, he seems to feat
his shadow. At the slightest Motion, at the least
noise, I have seen him start, and roll, in their
narrow orbits, his eyes, in which fear and rage
were at the same time expressed.
"'No ; never can the reign of such a Tyrant he
of long duration. Neither Dionysin., nor Nero,
nor Attila, nor-Caligula, nor any of the Tyraws
whom history has described, bud in their• looks
that which distinguishes the Usurper of France,
or rather the Scourge of Europe. However,. we
must not yet despair of
.the salvation of our flue
country ; single,moment suffices to deli vee it.
.ssapor, the torpor which seems to have
fdi minds win be dispelled ; it is not pos-
sible to doubt of it; and .all France nrom,ing
from a pa-nful -dream, will surely recover that
energy which has always characterised it ; and Its-
numerous inhabitants, surprised on their awaking
at their debasement, will again display their na-
tural vigour, and will thernelves exterminate the
monster who is the author of all their misfortunes.
Then the satelliteswho no longer deserve the mune
of Frenchmen, will be unable to defend him from
the vengeance of the. nation. Believe only a.
leader is wanting to set the national vengeance in
motion, for. where. is the Frenchman or the-fa-
mily in the whole extent of this gieat empire, who
has not -a brother, a relative, or a friend, to
inooro n:od to avenge ?
" Buonaparte is so little at his case, notwith-
standing the efforts which-he makes to hide the re-
morse of his conscience, that he cannot look with-
out confusion even at those to whom he owes his
ephemeral successes.
" Marshal Ney, that wretch, who by his
limo us treason has- delivered the kingdom to the
vulture that f0r,16 years has fed 'Ort-fbe blood of
the French, this traitor, I say, arrived yesterday
at Paris, and the bare sight of him made Bitona-
parte turn pale. I-have this fact from an eye-
witness, who, like me, deplores the fate of our
unhappy country.
The wish of all the French now is to see,
what we have always feared, what we haVe at all
times opposed, 150,000 leoeign troops enter upon
the soil of France; then be assured the French
will recover their ancient energy,and will do them-
selves justice on their Tyrant, and on those 11 ti•
natural children, who, accustomed to rubbery,
have sacrificed their country to the temptation of
gold, or of a bit of ribbon. If it were otherwise,
which cannot be stispeeted, then, I say it with
shame and regret, this beautiful France, the ob-
ject of the envy of all nations, would deserve to
be erased. from the list of Eirropean Powers.
"" I was.yesterday on guard at the nuilleries,
and who do you think commanded in' that Palace?
My soul revolts at so much perfidy; it was tha't
same Ey:cell-flans, who, after haying forfeited his
honour and his life, had been recently pardoned.
and reinstated in his honour by Louis XVIII.—
Alasl I cannot too often repeat it, it is the good-
of this excellent man which has precipitated
him from the throne, and plunged us into an abyss
of misfortunes, from c'vhicli God knows how we
shall he delivered.
• "On the 20th, at nine in the morning, there
was published, as I told you ill my last, an order
to illuminate.
.I wish you hash seen this illumi-
nation. Neyer in my life did I see any thing so
melancholy-7-never was Paris plunged into such
'despondency as at that moment—all the houses,
all the • shops' were shut, and the streets nearly
deserted :.here and there. were seen some strag-
ghug parties intoxicated with wine; composed Of
the dregs of the populace, on whom money-had
been lavished; and sonic soldiers returned trout the
prisonsof Russia and England running,in the dress
of citizens about the streets, and singing the praises
of their Emperor, Ou the 21st and 22d, all the
