LONDON,
SATURDAY, If,,RCI! ii, 1815.

To meet the general anxiety as early as possible
yesterdly, cec issued a portion of our Publication
with the OfEeinl Bulletin of Government, and
tvery knoltn particular or the extraordinary intel-
ligence received, while ive were preparing the
French Official Dochments for the Press. 'these
c•refore reprint to day, for the benefit of such
Of our Readers as obtained only our first Impres-
sion, the demand for ‘-.hich was unprecedented,
even in the crisis of the late war.

I,Ve now turn to the surprising news of the

Encp,Fion of France by the Emperor of

Elba !—for thoug'h the Country will cOneede'to
n 3 that we have ever vehemently foretold that the
mischiefs to be dreaded from the plots of this
turbulent and anibitious individual were ob-
Vinus and palpnble, vet we do confess that
we art; surprized they s'ionld have 50 SOMI become
manifest. The Soverciens of Europe have much
to ancwcr for in their treatment of.-this Man—so
inuch; thit were they alone to sillier from his ma-
chinmionv, even till their crowns trembled on
their heads, there wool! be few to say, that their
punishment was not richly tricritcJ. Hirt untortu.,
natelv their, people must endure in common with
their rulers ; the world must weep the improvidence
of the Mighty in tears of blood. Had common
tcspect been paid to the laws of God and Dian,
u lien this Criminal, was arrestt d at Fontailibleau,
shonld not now have had to dread the re-
kindling of the flames .4- discord in Europe. But
1R: was spared l—the living Object to which ever y
,dis,contented eye might turn, while every dis-
tiontented soul dwelt in hope upon its reac—
tion; was not only spared, but placed in
the very centre of the space where be was

niost ceq,AL f harm. And there were those
.rl;o applaufl;:d this moderatiln to the echo--
Thank Heaven, we never so greatly compromised
our title to the rank of rational -beings.
Ile1Ni:1i, we never approved of that forbearance
cvhiCh was inconsistent with wisdom, of that
nuigninimity which wasoblivions of prudence, of
that generosity which was incompatible with jus-
tice, of thilt lenity to an usurping assassin which
was barbarity to the human race. We well re-
tnembel cd that in the revolutions of Fortune's
restles wheel, as has been quaintly said by one of
our old- Poets—

" Same raised aloft come titmLlinr, down amain,
And fall so hard, they bound and rice again."
But this portentous truth the Potentates of Eu-
rope seemed to have torgotteu—the reward of

their folly is developing itself, and they may set
about renewing their labours for the general pa-
eitication oldie Continent :—we trust, indeed, they
will find them less difficult to be overcome than
the ”pprehensions of many lead them to anticipate.
The step taken by BUONA'PARTE is decisive, bold,
and desperate. Ile has set hiS all Upon a cast,
and must stand the hatrd of the die. la our yet

iMperfeet information, the question which comes
to he silted is, whether the ex-Tyrant would have
r. corted to this measure without assuraaces of

ppOrt

, with the nature of wi►ich we are unite-

cpaini cd, and who arc those likely to attach them-
selves to hiS destiny. In Italy we are convinced his
first: and greatest hopes rest. MunAT is his near
kinsman, and. feels that he can only sway a regal
sceptre in concert with Usurpers as low-born as
liAuself, The struggle for dominion is between the
class- of Adventurers ‘vhom the French Revolu-
tion elevated, and th(7!‘legitimate Monarchs of,
Fel rope .3 and every man of ordinary understand-
ing in Europe has long been convinced, that
‘Chenever their pretensions-come into conflict,

there would .he commou cause Inade.antong these

trpstart vagmbotick .against all that was 'honour-
able and respectable with better trAm. The• North
of Italy, too, is ripe for the plans .of 111,10 NA.

PAUTE. TUrill, the very focus of the.conspiracies
ifi that quarter, is before him, and Parma,
_and Genoa, widliu his reach. Here prohality will
iris earliest efforts be directed 3—here, the very
theatre of those military exploits which
first st-amped hirn a victorious Ciencral, and
laid the foundation• for his ack;anceinent to the

Throne of France'. Tice country is very strott.;.,;,
