TARBES, MARCH IS.

The measures adopted by the Duke of Dalmat'a
have produced complete confidence in every quarter
where any alarm had been conceived. Ail one r
pulation, as well as that of the adjoining Depart.
ments, is perfectly disposed to second the effcrts of
that able General, whose courage has never for a ma
me nt yielded to the obstacles he had to enccuuter.

LONDON.

SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1814,

We have to-day given some extracts from the
Paris Papers which we announced yesterday. Ut
to the 27th ultimo, inclusive, nothing of importance
had bee. announced ti the Parisians. The events
which have occurred in the South could not, how,
ever, be entirely unknown at Paris; and the very
silence of their own Jotirnals, must convince
People of the danger to which they are exposed by
the obstinacy of the man who boasts that he holds
not only their destinies, but those of Europe, in his
hands.

The obstacles which the Tyrant has thrown in the
way of Peace are fully established by the PrOC111113•
tions of Prince SCWARTZVBERO and Marshal DLL..
CHER:. and the fact is now fully proved, that in every
step that has beentalcon there bas. been the most per.
fect understanding among the Allies. The prolonga-
tion of the war is therefore to be imputed entirely t'
the enemy—not to a spirit of dictation on the put tof
the British Cabinet, as some of our contemporaries'
had endeavoured to persuade the Public to believe.
It is said that BONAPARTE has ins;sted that he shall
nominate one of his own relations as King of itidy;
that he shall retain Antwerp and the navigation of
the Scheldt ; and that France shall receive a:1 acco-
sion of territory beyond the limits Jto had in 17b9:
and it has been stated in letters from Holland, diAt,
in con sequence, the negociatioxs were broken off on
the 22d ult.

However this may be, we are fully convinced that
the present Negociations will not terminate is Peace.
the Tyrant not being yet sufficiently humbled.- Let
us hope that the delay will be followed by coast;
quences very different from what he has Fron"'
himself. But for these interruptions, the iiihabitaas
of France would not have the opportunity V\ hich
has been afforded them to declare for their legitimate
Sovereign ; nor world the same proipect have opened
which now ?MIMS itself to tie eye of huliLlniti•

. •

ict the Allies continue to act vrtth e sake spirit
and i.tessintity which has hitherto guided theft pro-
keedings ; and, now that they may be Considered as
ethancipated from proposed stipulations, the enemy
t.:.%-log obstinately re)etted them, let the French in
every quarter be called upon to rise for their .own
'f:rnahcipation, and there seems no ground to appre-
hend that the wretch who has caused so Many tears
iv it lea.; continue to scourge the earth.
'lle report of General AVESSE to HULINI IiONA•

mew, of Paris, proves very satisfactorily that Paris is
literally surrounded by the Allied troops. The affair

A,.-Esz, in the complete deroute of the enemy, ac*-
counts for the stoppage of intercourse between Paris
and the Cowl, as stated in the letters fret France

the line of road from Paris to Calais and Boulogne.

At Tarbes the inhabitants evinced the best ditpo-
sitions to support his Highness of DALMATIA. Their
exertions were, however, fruitless, for Lord WEL-
tiNoroN drove Sotwr out of the place on the 19th,
being precitely .the day after the inhabitants had
evinced their determination to support him.
The zeal of the inhabitants of Rennes. and of
Caen, in Nor Mandy, is precisely the same character
4rith that of the dordelais. Nothing but cries of eve

Sitce yr lass the above, Paris Papers o 1 the /3th
ult. being one day latei than those above noticed, '
have arrived. The 7 contain no official report to the
Estratis, but state, as an article of intelligence, from
the army, that the French armies occupied Douleveut,
Brienne, And Chaumont. They are in communitation
with Troyes, and their advanced posts have been
pushed towards Langres.

Tournay is already occupied by Prussian and
Saxon Landwehr and Volunteers In order to dis-
turb the enemy's line below Maubenge, considerable
detachtnents have appeared before Ghent and Phi-
lippeville. Maubenge lies on the Sombre. Its chief
strength consists in the entrenched camp which lies
near it, and commands it, but as this camp is not pro-
perly flirnished with provisions; nor sufficiently
armed, and is, besides, not occupied by any conside-
Lible body of troops) It is Intsumed that the place

The important fact is nOiv officiahy

announced, by dispatches received
this morning from Lord CAsTxx-
REAGH, that all Negociation with the
-Usurper of the 'French Throne---the
Oppressor of France---the Enemy of
Mankind, is broken off. Mr. Vim,
the Messenger, was the bearer of fir
gratifying intelligence : he came bj
the way of Holland, and arrived at
the Foreign Office early this morn-
ing. Ministers lost not a moment in
apprising the Public of the event---a
a letter was immediately sent' from
Lord EATHIIRST to the LORD Mi6roß,
by whom it was communicated to the
Gentlemen at Lloyd's and the Stock
Exchange by half-past 11 o'clock.
The following is a copy of the

LETTER TO THE LORD MAYOR
44
FOREIGN OFFICE, APRIL 2.
44
Lord BATHURST presents his
compliments to the LORD MAYOR,
and thinks it right to inform his Lord-
ship, that dispatches have arrived this
morning from Lord CASTLEREAGH,
stating that the Negociations at Cha-
till on are at an end." •

Immediately after forwarding tht
above letter to-the LORD MAYOR, the
following Official Doeunient was is-
sued from the Treasury:
BULLTErg.

Letters are received from Lord
CASTLEREAGH, dated Bar•sur-Aube,
22d ult.

The Negoeiations were broken
off on the 18th.

44 BONAPARTE was defeated at
Arcis on the 21st by PrinceS CHWART•:,
ZENBERG, and retired on ihe roads to
Vitry."

By the letters received from Madrid we learn that
the French had evacuated Olntt, having blown up the
fortification, and that it was believed they were pre-
paring to.evacuate Gerona.
Letters from Bremen, dated March 29, say,
" Cott& Von Essen, the Swedish Governor of
N.Tway, has entered that country With 19,000 men.;
The Danish Commandants of the fortresses of Kens-
winger, Frederickshall, Frederickstadt, and Agger-
haus, are preparing to deliver them up. Prince
Christian is still there, and some malcontents are,
%ally endearritiring to excite commotions."
A letter front an Officer of Engineers (received
yesterday), dated near Bayonne, `loth March, states,
" That the siege of the citadel had not then com-
menced ; that the undertaking was deemed arduous,
and that the troops there were unacquainted with
Lord WELLINGTON'S operations subsequent to his
head-quarters being at Aire. Reinforcements have
arrived, but are not yet ep with us."
Yesterday a Court of Directors was held at the East
India-house, when the following,Commanders took
leave previous to departing for 'their respective desti-
nations, via. Captain B. KAY, of the Marchioness Of
Ely, for St. Helena and Btegal ; arid Captain HARRIS,
of the Prince Regent, for Madras Ind Bengal.
The Fenhryer, EvAxs, from Liverpool to Rotter-
dam, was taken by two French loggers ; retaken by.
the BEMIS sloop of war, and carried into Rams-
gate yesterday.
L'Etoile French frigate, arrived in Hamoaze, is
represented as being more au to than any vessel that
has arrived for some years at Plymouth. She went
into action with the HERRUS with shot-holes patched.
up in every part, in consequence of her preeious-mbe*
gagement with the CREOLE. The HEBRI/3 almost,
eonipleted her destruction, although l'Etoile is seven
feet longer, and has guns of a larger calibre. Few
of the crew of the latter are seamen, but are very fine
young men, mostly cannoniers. The Frenchmen I
vaunt of having beaten 'the Cutor.r., and confidently
boast of having caused much slaughter on board her
in their contest. The latter boast is, however, disbe:'
lieved at Plymouth. L'Etoile has on board the
choicest of the plunder of 19 shiPs and it would be
a most distressing sight to our manufacturers and
merchants to behold the waste of so much precioaa
property as is exeinplified on board l'Etoile, in Ha-
moaze. Manchester goods, cloth, muslin', silks, kc.
scc. &c. lie in indiscriminate confusion on the enemy's
decks. Instead of slinging the wounded in ham-
mocks, immense layers of broad cloths, kc. were
stretched fore-and-aft, on which they lay till the ves-
sel's arrival in port. The Frenchmen have, however,
been prevented from taking any part of the plunder
away, and many of the prisoners having 'wrapped
cloth, &c. round their bodies, have been recoiled....
There are on board 17 Portuguese, taken out of a
slave-ship; and there are also two pretty negro girls,
one of nine, and the other of 11 years of age, taken
from the same vessel, whose situation should coin-
Mad the notice of the philanthropist.
