PARIS, SEPT. 10.

GENERAL MURAT has arrived here, rather mi.
expetedly, from the-Coast. His return was caused
by dispatches he received from FOUCITE, of which
the contents can only he matter of conjecture, even
to those who observe with accuracy what improperly
is called the Public Spirit.
During Bostaresitres absence from the Capital,
his secret Enemies, as well as those of the Roya:
list and Jacobin Fadion, have not been idle.—
The almost certain rupture with several Continental
Princes, and the evident impossibility of any sue-
cess in his grand •Expedition against England, have
been useful means in their hands, to agitate, if not
to excite the people. Their disaffedion and dis-
content have shewn themselves on several occasions.
Caricatures, pasquinades, and ball ids, have, not-
withstanding the vigilance of the Police, been ex.
hibited, published, and sung ; in as hich the crimes
and treachery; the plots and ambition ; the con-
spiracies and atrocities of the BONAPARTE family,
have been exposed to public view, cpntempt, and
vengeance. This has been carried to sucll an cx.
cess, that even FoncliE himself apprehendfd serious
cori:sequences ; particularly, as of the eight thou Sand
Troops remaining here, many were suspected to
have been seduced, and ready to join the colours of
insurgents, had they been
,eteCted.
It can hardly be credited, in foreign Countries,
how much the new Emperor, his new dignity, and
his Imperial relatives have been turned into
ridicule, in the public walks, as well as in the
market places ; in our streets, as well as in DUE
churches ; in our gardens, as well as in out theatres.
Since the summer of 1797 the public opinion never
pronounced itself, more • openly against all the
heroes and heroines produced by the Revolu-
tion—but, as at that period, terrors- not only
silenced clamour, but changed our Patr;ots into
the most abjed of slaves. Six thousand men
from the Camp near AMiens, and four thou-
sand from Compeigne, preceded the arrival of
MURAT, who, with Foucnt, immediately ordered
some imprisonments aradeportations. The Patroles
became more numerous, and the Police Spies mote
audacious • not 'a voice was any longer heard, except
in praise of the BONAPARTEI; and the " Emperor
for ever!" was again the Order of the Day, in those
very places, and among those very persons, who,
some feW days before, were the most vociferous and
violent in their execrations against the present order
of things. It is even reported, that several of our'
Pate;ltr, who were noted by the Police fur their dis-
,affeetion, have become informers ; and, to save
themselves, have done every thing in their power to
have their associates guillotined or transported.—
. Such a vile and fickle people do not deserve the
blessings of Liberty ; and, as long as a man is found
who his ambition and audacity to usurp power, if
backed by the. bayonet,, he will never want here,
either executioners, victims, or slaves. From mu.
.drrn France, Europe has, therelane, every thing
to fear, but nothing to hbpe; hecause the late mu-
tinous disposition was not confined to Paris only,
but extended to all the Departments ; and, with the
exception of "soo,orso Soldiers, and so.oota Place.
men, there was not an inhabitant of France, who
did" oot equally" detest and despise BONAPARTE
• who, notwithstanding, had lie only half the number
of bayonets and sycophants, would, with equal ease,
he enabled to oppress thirty millions of his slaves, as
he has done for these last five' years.
It is said, that •MireAf is to join BONAPARTE at
Mentz. Ile has now increased our Garrison to

The-late' Mr, IliAtio 1-1(4.1. is derived the ch;er
part of his fortune from the well.knowo Republican,
Titot.tm liULLIS. 'The latter lodged in Henrietta.
street, Govent.Gliden, and his apartments being
,nn fire, he rushed into them with great eagerness,
in order to recurs:, if possible, a picture of MILTON.
When he had obtained this portrait of the litmus
Republican Peer, lie walked quietly away from the
promises with the picture in his hand, wholly WV.
ferent ro the tate of the rest. of his property, though
it was very valuable. He left Mr, littANn HOLLIS
the bulk of his fortune, on Recount of the supposed
devotion of the latter to pi/Mc-pint-4hr; and six
.flinnths after the death of the..Teqator, BRAND

memorable Shafithriri
