PROBLEMS ON MA'S.
This day was published, price 12.5. half-bound,

M Latitude and Longitude.
By the Rev. 7. GOLDSMITH,
Author of the Grammar of Geography, &c.

Little nerd be said to recommend Irolilema on Maps ag a
branch of liberal education, and as Supplementary to the study
of Geography. 1 hey will rank in superior usefulness above Pro-
blems on the Globes, in the degree in which Maps are more
common, and more frequently consulted than Globe,. They
form a novelty in science and in education, for which the Author
claims credit with the pubic, and for which he expects to reap
Ids reward in the universal preference of this useful sad com-
pendious Atlas.

INSURRECTION IN PARIS.

Private letters are in town from the French coast,
of the date of Wednesday. They state that the
Barriers of Paris had been shut during three days
in the week preceding, and that every possible pre-
caution had been taken to prevent any intelligence
from reaching the Departments from the Capital. It
was,however, generally known, that there were serious
disturbances every night at all the Theatres in Paris,
and that in consequence three of them, namely, the
Theatre Feydeau, Theatre du Vaudeville, Rue de
Chartres, and the Theatre des Varietes, Boulevards
Montmartre, had been shut up. A great number of
unhappy persons (mostly females), relatives of those
who had perished in Russia, were shot while besieging
the doors of the Office of the Minister at War, to
obtain information respecting their unfortunate mili-
tary friends. Since this infernal massacre, an appa-
rent tranquillity had been restored, and large pa-
troles of cavalry occupied the principal meets, who
were directed to disperse every group of persons ex-
ceeding two in number.

The extent of the French loss in Russia had been
made known with great assiduity, by means of pla-
cards chalked on the walls. It was whispered in
Paris, that Prince EUGENE BEAUHARNOIS, during the
retreat from the Berezyna, had snapped a pistol at
BONAPARTE. He was immediately put under sur-
veillance, and declared to be insane ! No person knew
what had since become of him. He was regarded as
a young man of an amiable character. Our Readers
will recollect, that a few weeks ago a State Prisoner
passed through some part of Prussian Poland, on his
way to a fortress in Silesia.—Was this the Son-in-
law of BONAPARTE ?

It appears from the information communicated
from time to time by the much lamented Lord TYR.
CONNEL, to his friends is this country, that the hor-
rors attending the retreat of the French from Mos-
cow, far exceeded any idea which the official details
of the French or Russians have been calculated to
excite. However singular it may appear, it is ne-
vet theless true, that whole regiments of cavalry,
men and horses, were frozen to death in march-
ing order ! It was no uncommon occurrence for
mounted patroles, or advanced guards, to be ar-
rested in their progress in this manner, regularly as
the files ascended the brow of a bill or other exposed
situation ! As to the infantry, they were generally
found in heaps of several hundreds at a time frozen
to death, generally under the shelter of any eminence
which lay is their route—they were all without arms
or ammunition, and had neither boots,shoes nor stock-
ings, but the clothes of their dead comrades generally
furnished them with clumsy coverings for the extremi-
ties. The fetlock joints of the horses of the 44 Sacred
Squadron" and Imperial Guards, and of those which
drew the carcase of BONAPARTE in the sledge, were
secured in this manner. They were fed upon the
slender allowances of coarse bread which were found
in the haversacks of the deceased men and officers,
to collect which, parties were regularly sent out the
instant that the bivouac for the day or night was taken
up. The human beings who composed the remains
of the retreating army were not allowed to touch a
morsel of bread ! Their food generally consisted of
the entrails of the dead horses, and it was only the
officers of-high rank who were indulged with pieces
of horseflesh which had been previously roasted,—
The fires kept up during the bivouacquing, were
usually made of tumbrils, baggage-waggons, and
gun-carriages, with now and then the dead bodies of
such men or horses as lay within their reach.

Among other interesting anecdotes related by Lord
TYRCONNELL, the following is absolutely without pre-
cedent in military annals. We have met with similar
incidents it is true, but it was in the regions of ro-
mance :—His Lordship happened to be in a position
upon which the enemy were advancing. The cavalry
had just come in sight with a tolerably quick pace,
when they appeared to be arrested and fixed in their
places as it were by magic. The leader of the corps,
horse and men, stopped short, and all in the rear
stopped with him. Their continuance for a consi-
derable time in this situation, induced a suspicion of
the cause. His Lordship and several others went up
to this corps of cavalry, when they found all stiff,
and frozen to death. It would seem that the Captain
or leader of this small corps continued to move until
he became quite exhausted, and that as soon as the
motion which enabled his followers to keep up with
him ceased, the cold laid its leaden hands upon them,
and fixed them immoveable to the earth.

COMMODORE RODGERS
AND HIS SQUADRON!

By the subjoined letter, we are incline] to believe
that this great champion of maritime rights is now
on his way to a British port.—Bon voyage 1

•• SCILLY, JANUARY 26.
•• Arrived the Flying Fish, Captain FROUD, from
St. Michaels', bound to London—sailed 10th instant,

and on the 12th tell in with Commodore RODGER'S
squadron, consisting of three frigates and two brigs ;
was within gun-shot of one of the frigates, but being
a fast sailer, she escaped. On the 15th fell in with a
British squadron of three sail of the line and two fri-
gates, to whom Captain FROUD gave the information
of the Americans, and they immediately went in
chace, and he has no doubt but our ships would fall
in with them."

We subjoin two most important documents on the
subject of the great question at issue between Mini-
sters and the East India Company. The principal
object in the view of Government seems to be, in the
first instance, that of giving encreased facilities to
the importation of rice, a measure which certainly
promises the most beneficial consequences to the pa
pulation of this country. Every home cargo is to be
made up of threw fourths rice, and one-fourth India
goods; and although the out-ports may export, the
importations are confined to the Port of London. We
are glad to find, that a most deserving class of men,
the Captains of regular Indiamen, are to enjoy the
exclusive privilege of carrying passengers to and from
India.

There is, in short, a spirit of conciliation through-
out the whole of the subjoined articles, which cannot
fail to have due weight upon -all temperate men,
however they may conceive their interests to be
affected
