rostatice :. an article appeared in an Englislinews-
p4ier'"about five yars ago, Stating, that ' an
defachtniatt 'was at Dover, and it Was repifrted there
that the French had "landed near. that plaCe, upon
-which the troops cried out huzza !' This article
appeared in. the l'obliciste, properly traWslated. The
next day -an article appeared in the aiL'ette!'de
France, accusing the editor of the Publi-ciste of
being disaffetled, '‘ and that when the -English
troops. cried out huzza, they did not 'mean, as the
•PubliCistehacl translated it;' "vi vat, and by which .it
would imply that they were pleased, 'but on the
contrary, huzza signified in that language, " -Alas!"
The next day the Pubticiste eXposed the ignorance of
the Gazette de France; by giving the word huzza
and its • meaning in French floln Boyer's Didion-
ary. .The day after Buonaparte interfered, and
wrote in the Noniteur, that the editor of the, Pub,
liciste was an ignorant fool, and that he ought to
know that the.Sameiwoid may have two meanings,
But continued Buonaparte, the ma/veillance of -that
"journalist is known, as also his attachment to the
corrupting"gold of England; &c. -.Now this- very
article the Publiciste was.obliged to copy-in his own
paper the next day. It happens repeatedly that
government. sends an article to one of the minor pa.'
pers for insertion ; the next daythe Mouiteur abuseS
him. fur it, after which he is obliged to coe) the ar,
tide:written against himself.
" This is what the French call' mystcation, and
the object ..is 'this : whenever they 'meditate some
-mischief against- a foreign power, 6t,t wish to have
it believed by that poWer that Buonaparte's inten-
tion is to live on terms of harMony with her; an ar-
ticle is' fabricated in the harsi.eA terms, imputing
hostile views to her, such•as. '''that she gives tals,
statements Qt her condmit, but that in truth
.she . is

mining ,or giving ncoutzigernent to the 'English, ,
'£,:c.' 'fhis article is s to some of the ininor

, .
newspapers,:. in which it is inserted, as copied from
a-foreign continental loornal.'
-" The nest day the MOniteur attacks the article
alluded-to ;' accuses the editor of being in the 'say of
the'English 04ertunela, and this tirade lire editor
is -obliged to copy, although it is an attack upon
his 'chata&er. By this manoeuvre, Bucapat to moans
that the-state- whoni he kitishei to lull into security
may' havean opinion of the pacific intention of the
French GOVertinient.

" For the most trifling article's journalist is sent
to prison. Not , long sauce a speech of Sir Francis
Burdett, relating to -some new law in Ireland about
her 'Militia, appeared in' the Paris Argui This
speech; Which. was virulent: attack upon the
mi-
litary systeth, was not well snited for the meridian
of Paris ; Orders were therefore sent to all' the news;
papers -not to translate' and 'insert the article froth
the Argus. The Courier de l'Europe received the
order -too late, the paper was already printed and
published : in consequence of Which, the edittir, M.
Salgues, was sent to:Bicetre (the receptacle for fe-
tons) for three months."
t When I say Buonaparte interferes, I wish it may be well
understood, that all notes in the Moniteur are of his compo-
sition ; they_ are all first corrected as to spelling and style by
Maret,. I have already noticed in the preceding pages.

We have received a letter from Halifax, of which
the follolking is an extract
" 'HALIFAX, JULY 31.—A vessel is just arrived

from Poit-au-Prince, St. Domingo, and was in-
formed that Peace was negotiating between Chris-
tophe and Potion, and that the two chieftains had
agreed to acknowledge Louis XV111../Cing of France
and N.ivarre, and 'Emperor of Italy, as soon as this
agreement. hdd been approved,by the Court of St.:
James's. They were freighting several vessels: with
colonial produce, intended to be offered as voluntary
donations to his most Christian Majesty."
The Leopard. man of war arrived on Sunday at
Portsmouth-front the Cape of Good Hope, frOm
whent.e she brings accounts to the 4th July. We
are sorry. to find by these that the garrison of the Isle
of France has received a very considerable addition.
Three frigates, filled with-troops, had arrived there
from France. The Leopard had also brought intel-
ligence of the safe arrival in India of the Georgiana
packet.* the 4th of February. She had received
directions to be in readiness to sail at a short notice
with dispatches for England.
From the North of Spain we learn that the Cal-
lician army increases every day,. and that large sup-
plies of every necessary
.have been-sent thither from
this..country. Thus have we the satisfaction of
knowing that the adivity and energies of the Spa-
niSh people in resisting the invaders are uurelaxed,
and the liberality and attention of the British Go-
vernment, in stimulating and seconding. their- gal-
lant exertions, honourably and generously unabated.
Yesterday the body of a respectable person, seem-
ing& between 40 and 50 years of,age, was picked
up in the River Thames, near Vauxhall, and was
'afterwards. cOnveyed 4othe. bone-house, Lambeth,
where it now lies for a Coroner's Inquest.
A few days since, a young man of the name of
Thornton, clirithed The spire of the parish church of
Aloulton,,in Lincolnshire, and having safely reached
the fiat stone which caps the summit, he determined
tO.substitute a cloth apron which he wore, for the
lane, fixed at the extrernity•ol a lofty staff: whilst
he Was ascending this staff, it broke with his weig.llt !
but, ,strange to. tell, his body balanced upon the

steeple, and.he was enabled to descendsafely to the
fiat stone, The fane and part of the staff fell to the
ground, with a trementhius crash. Thee-young man
