.Now, who but a downright BlOckbead would,
in a dozen of lines after this, have made the for-
lowing statement ?

" There are also Journals, as free in their re-
marks on the Government as in Englan,i. This

we are assured of by our Correspondent, though
we have seen no such papers'; and be says, that it
is no slight proof of-the confidence whichBUONA-
PARTE feels in his personal security, that animad-
versions which nu other Potentate in Europe
would permit, are suffered freely to circulate. It
is only against the commission of overt acts against
the Government that measures have been talecii."
14 hat does the driveller mean ?—first, the land-
ing in La Vendee offers. BUONAPARTE a handle lot
issuing " rigorOus orders for the arrest of .all
SUSPECTED Partizans of the BOURBONS"--and
the next paragraph it is " only against the corn-..
mission. of OVERT ACTS dgainst the Government
that measures havebeen taken." This is.the earliest
opportunity we have had of learning, that 'being
a suspected Partizan was an Overt " Act ! ! Oh
admirable Logician of the Morning Chronicle, how
difficult is the task of making opposite lies square
in all their trines, aspects, and hearings. But
gd on ;be not discouraged—if BuoNarattrE sur-
vive, he will recompence your intentions, if not
your services, with more substantial rewards than
the Ribbon and Grand Cross of the Legion of
Honour !

We are assured of the following fact, from the
most respectable authority :—A Gentleman who
held an office in a provincial town of France on-

der Louis XVIII. resigned his• etnployn►ent on
tl►e return Of BUONAPARTE, and receiving a hint
soon after, that it vioas probable he would bt . arrest-
ed, be thought it the best plan to go immediately
to Paris, where he solicited an intel view with
Foocnz. Being admitted to an audience, he re-.
quired to know why be was to be arrested, alledg-
ing that lie was permitted •to leave the country
under,the decree of the ,Emperor, and intimating
that if not prevented, it was his intention to de•L
part for Ghent the next day. FOLTCHE answered
him neatly in the following manner, after assuring
bins of his safety:---" Ottr Tyger has returned,
and makes sucl► a roaring at present, that we know
not what to do with him; but, after he has served
our purpose, we, shall soon contrive•to get rid of
him." It was inferred that this answer was in-
tended by Foucus as an overture to the King of
France, which he took that opportunity of pre-
Seating to his Majesty.

By a Private Letter from Paris we learn, that
some of the Leading Men under the Ustirperre-
cently represented to him, that after hariag
adopted every practicable measure for the defence
of the country they found it absolutely itupossible

every private circle Where it is thu subject of con-
versation ; from every"individual' who is induced
to speak of it ; from thos-e even esteemed its
friends) and persons Whom ti 4 consider far too
violent.Oppositioni,its; nothing. is heard but si-
milar remarks. :" It is too bad"—" Such lan-
guacke is indefensible."" We dislike the present
.Ministers -as much as possible.; but every man
must be shocked at this devotion to the ene-
my, and not palliated hatred to its own Coun-
try.- --These, and other observations of the
same unture, Nse will take upon us th assert, ar;.4.
'common to every society where the topic of News:-
papers is broached; and these vehicles of informa,

tiou hare become so common as to occupy pretty

general attention.
'We have ourselves been rathei• ain used than
outraged by the labours of this London Menteur,
during, the last few days. The folly has so over-
' shadowed even the iniquity, that though we were
incensed at the bitter, we could not help being
more inclined to laugh at the former. The facts
seem to be addressed to the imagination
.of Ro-
mance Readqrs, the politics to the loyalty of
Traitors, the arguments to the understanding of
Idiots. Of the first, a specinten is to be found
in the- assertion that BUONAPARTE has 600,000
regular troops in arms—his own Journals (we
mean in France !) with all their exaggerations,
state the number at exactly one half, viz. 300,000 !
—A specimen of the second is to be found in an
odious comparison of the British Sovereign with
the Corsican Usurper—And a specimen of the
third is to be found in the following reasoning,
(if we can Call the ravings of brutal ignorance
and Jacobin stupidity by the name of reason),
which adorned its columns yesterday :—.
" Private letters from Paris state, that the land-
ing of the Chottan Leaders in La Vendt-e, with
the supply of English arms, has enabled the Go-
vernment, without jealousy, to issue the most ri-
gorous orders for the arrest of all the suspected
partizans of the BOURBini Fatuity thr-oughout
France ; and it is said, that if the Allies shall
defer the commencement of hbstilities but tor daS's
more, they will find every one of their confede-
rateS in custody."
