" ADMIRALTY OFFICE, JULY t.i.
Ettract of a Letter from Captain Maitland, of his Majesty's ship
Bellerophon. to John Wilson Croker, Esq. dated In Destine-
Roads, the lttb Instant.

44 For the information of-my Lords Commissioner,.
of the Admiralty. I have to .acquaint you that the
Count Las Casses and General Allemand, this day
came on board his Majesty's ship under my COM-
with a proposal for me to receive on board
Napoleon Bonaparte, for the purpose of throwing
hiimelt on the generosity.of his Royal Highness the
Prince Regent.
44 Conceiving myself authorised by their Lordships'
secret order, I have acceded to the proposal, and he
is to embark on board this ship to-morrow morning.
64 That no misunderstanding might arise, I have ex.
plicitly and clearly explained to the Count Las Casses,
that I have no authority whatever for granting terms
of any sort ; but that all I can do is to convey him
and his suite to England, to be received in such man-
ner as his Royal Highness may deem expedient."

ARRIVAL Or BONAPARTE IN ENGLAND.

We have now to state, that the Mail of this
morning has brought intelligence from Torbay of the
.actual arrival of the BELLEROPHON, with a cargo of
outcasts. The folio% ing are the accounts that have
been received :

" TORBAY, JULY 24.
" Arrived this day his Majesty's ships MYRMIDON
and BELLannettos, on board the latter is NAPOLEON
BONAPARTE, General BERTRAND, his wife, and three,
children, the Count MOUTIIRLOND, his wife, and one
child, SAYARY, LAS CAMS and his son, General
LALLEMAND, and several others, in all about thirty-
four. The Port Admiral at Plymouth and Lord KEITH
are expected ~his afternoon from that port, when it will
be known what is to become of NAPOLEON and his
party: at present we know nothing of what is intended
to be done with them.

" No strangers are permitted to go alongside the
BaLtraorrion, but Naror.noN is seen plain enough by
all at the stern gallery, and those that go round the'
;hip have a full view of him."
Another letter, of the same date, from Torbay, after
confirming all that is said in the preceding, states—
" that the Duke of Roviao, Count „Las Cisme,
Count MIWTHELeND and family, two Lieutenant.
COlonels, three Captains, and two Lieutenants, are
on board his Maiesty's ship Mumma." It then
states—" that boats may pass round the BELLER°.
PITON, but are not permitted to go alongside. That
NAPOLEON is almost constantly in the stern-gallery;
and the parties who have been off, have approached
near enough to cri-linguish that he has greyish eyes,
brown hair," &e. &c.

Our Readers have been informed,that BONAPARTE
had written a letter to the PRINCE REGENT. We have
already stared the leading points. The following
copy of it is given in one of the Paris Papers received
this morning. We are not informed how they received
it, but we suspect it was Carried to Paris by Gentral
BECKER, the one who was appointed by the Provi-
sional Government to see him lately off:
NAPOLEON'S LETTER TO THE PRINCE REGENT.
" ROYAL HIMINESS—.Exposed to the factions
which divide my country, and to the enmity of the
great Powers of Europe, I have terminated my poli-
tical career, and I come like Themistocles, to throw.
myself upon the hospitality (m'aneoir stir Sc foyer) of
the British people. I claim from your Royal High-
was% the protection of the laws, and throw myself
upon the most powerful. the most constant, and the
most generous of my enemies. (Signed)
" Rochefort, July 13." NAPOLIOL"

BONAPARTN has always aimed at being classical in
his compositions, but has invariably displayed a most
unhappy perversion in bis application of historical
facts to passing circumstances. The circumstances
of THII34ISTOCLIIS' political degradation darer widely

from those of NAPOLEON, and the relative condition
of their respective enemies is equally dissimilar.
Even in their previous-career there appears but little
in common. Toesorrocm was born in a free court.
try, where the path to glory and clistinction• was also
that of honour. Opposed in his political course by
men of distinguished integrity, he was compelled to
exert his powers to ensure the civil liberty of Athens,
while his talents were successfully exerted against the
Persians to es.s:ritsit the independence of his country.
After having discomfited the gigantic efforts of
the public enemy by his courage and prudence, and
raised his native city to eminence and splendour, he
fell a victim to the unworthy jealousies of his count
trymen, and being denied an asylum within the ter:
flurries of Greece, fled to the Monarch whose arma-
ments he had defeated. On the contrary, Boo*.l
PARTS appeared in France as one of those portentous
meteors, which the convulsed system of that country
shook from its orbit. to pursue a devious and eccen-
tric course, threatening the desolation of mankind.
He arose, at that fortunate period when the revolu-
tionary mania had almost subsided—when wearied
nature sighed for tranquillity—and fortune, in a ca-
pricious mood; delighted to encourage him. Chosen
by a party-as the contemptible agent of an infernal

from his throe% and to England, his conquering

of this picture does BONAPARTR resemble the Athe-
nian Statesman f Perhaps in the secondary qualities
by which THP.RISTOCULI effected his great purpose,
BONAPARTE beholds his owns military talents, his cun-
ning, duplicity; and ambition, but in those primary
attrii.;utes which form the moral character of a great
man, he mdst mark his dist4neervointervallo!

French Papers of the 22d ht,e arrived, from
which we have given large extracts. The letter
signed by the Prince of Ecaatunt., as DAvousr still
Galls himself, and which he entitles—"" Addrets to Me
Kig by the Array of the Loire," is perhaps the most
impudent production that has appeared for years.—
It professes to be 48 a pure and simple lubmission"
to the KING, and yet asserts, that it has no occasion
to change ill spirit or sentiments," that it is
only necessary for it to consult those sentiments
which have animated it under all circumstances I"

—HAG the man last his senses ? Does he conceive
mankind to be as low in intellect as he would have
made them in energy f Or does he mean a direct in-
sult, and to say that, though compelledto submit to
their conquerors, the army still retains its treasonable
and rebellious sentiments ? Whether he meant to
make-such an avowal or not, we have no doubt
whatever, that they are as unchanged in their princi-
ples and their desire to perpetrate evil, as the degraded
idol whom they so long supported. We believe him
sincere, however, in his desire that 14 a general and
absolute oblivion of all that has passed, should efface
every trace of distention :"—that is, it would be very
convenient for M. Davourt that his misdeeds should
be forgotten ; that those of whose property he has
possessed himself should cease to remember that it
once belonged to them ; that the KING should per.
suade himself that Davousf has never violated his
oath, but ever remained true and 10ya1...

Private letters from Paris state, -how truly we kilns
not, hat the French have agreed to a contribution in
payment of the expenses sustained by the Allies du-
ring this war, to be levied in four years. We recal.
kct that when Jumrr entered Portugal, he at once op.
pressed that people (.4
_Pal:tole' was the word in the
Meniteur) by a ri.quilition ut ore hundred millions of
frantsi above four mill'ors tatritng. It was at the be
ginning of July, 1807, tl:az Ow treaty of Tilsit was con-
cluded, every species of extortion and rapiie was af-
terwards exercised on the Prussians for a year and a
half. Their Sovereign was subjected to all the insult
that oppressed greatnebs could sustain from vulgar

insolence, inflated by almost unbounded power. On
the 29th of November, of IbtA3, the Convention of
Berlin was signed for the evacuation of the Prussian
States; but BONAPARTS still retained possession of
Stettin, Custkin, and. Glogau, in order to enforce
pnment of the contributions which he pretended 'o
be due to hiEn. • •
Other letters state, and we think this aaceedingly
probable, that the proceedings of the Allies have Been
not a little embarrassed by the circumstance of the
KING hav,ing so soon made his appearance in
Less difficulty, it is said, would have been experienced
in settling the Government, even liar the KING'S ulti-
mate and personal interests, if he had "realtined at
Ghent.

Webave received Boston Papers of the 25d, and
New-York to the 20th of June. 'They contsiano for
telligence of interest, if we except the details which
they give from Martinique and Gusidalotspe, respect-
ing the movements of the Bonapartist% in those
Islands ; but these accounts are rendered unnecessary
by the contents of the Gazette of last night.

Yesterday the Baron Snow., the Aid•de.Canip to
the Prince of SCRWARTZINBERG was introduced to
the PatacikaGlNT at Carlton House.i Count Mus.

The Princess CUARLOTTI of WALRI, after an airing
to Fulham and an early dinner, was present at the Opera
last night, to witness the third representation of Ma-
dame Varrats, in Prousities, and she appeared to be
highly delighted. It again went off with high and
universal applause.

Yesterday morning, Lieutenant Arrarma, Flag
Lieutenant of Sir H. HOTHAM, arrived in Town with
Dispatches, grins an account of the arrival of the
Bat LRROPTION at Torbay, 'With BONAPARTE and his
suite. Colonels FRAZIER and PONIONSIfy and the son
of Sir ARCHIBALD MACDONALD, and several other
Officers, came passengers on beard the Bzu,SROPHOSIsI

Town yesterday evening, states, that BONAPARTE
was almost constantly upon deck, with his glass, re-
connoitring, frequently walking backwards and for.
wards in a hurried step, and incessantly _talking to
himself.
