A dispatch, of which the following is an extract,
his been this darseceived from Lord Viscount CA.s•
TLZRZAGII, addressed to Earl BATtit:u..;r :

Paris, April 1.3, 1814.
• I have the honour to acquaint your Lordship, that
Monsieur made his public entry yesterday, and was
xeceived with the utmost cordiality by' the whole po-
pulation of Paris. It was deemed more expedient
that the solemnity should be purely French, the Allied
~oveteigns did not tbei'efore attend, nor did any of
their troops join the cortege; but as theillourbon fa-
:nil/ had been to long resident i England, I thought
I should neither incur the displeasure of the Prince
Regent, nor give occalion to any injurious comment,
loy meeting his Royal Highness at the hairier? and
accompanying him into Paris. The whole of the
British Fni4ions here present attended, and, With the
Field-Marshals of the Empire were close tp his per-
son, whilit he traversed the town amidst the applause
of tie people.
