PARIS, JUNIVet:
The only official news published yesterday, k
tained in the following dispatch, addressed to the
Minister at War
(LETTERS WRITTEN racist IPLEURUS, JUNE 17, 1815.)
14 The French armies have again Immortalized
themselves on the plains of Fleurus.
4, \Ve entered Belgium en the 15th. The enemy
was overthrown in a first affair upon every point
where he attempted to resist us.
" Before Ch.trleroy several of his squares were
broken and taken by some squadrons only ; 1,700
prisoners only could be saved out of 5 or 6,000 men
who eomp sed those squares. Yesterday, the 16th,
we encountered the whole of the enemy's army in its
position near Fleurus ; its right, composed of Eng-
lish, under the command of Wellington, was in
front of Me;let, its centre at St. Amend, and its left
at Sombres, a formidable position, covered by the
Ligny.
" The enemy occupied also -the little village of
Ligny, in front of this river. Our army 41,1boticlietl
in the plain ; its left, under Marshal Ney, by Gosse.
lies ; the cei,tre, where the Emperor was, by Fleu-
ins ; and the right, trader General Gerard, upon
Sombres. The action began at two o'clock upon the
left and centre. Both sides fought with inconceiv-
able fury. The villages of St. Amand and Ligny
were taken and retaken four times. Our soldiers
have all covered themselves with glory. At eight
o'clock the Emperor, with his whole guard, had
Ligny attacked and carried. Our brave fellows ad.
vanced at the first discharge upon the principal posi-
tion of the enemy. His army was found in the
centre, and obliged to retreat in the greatest disor-
der; Blucher, with the Prussians, upon Namur, and
‘Vellington upon Brussels.
44 Several pieces of cannon were taken by the
guard, who bore down all before them. All marched
with cries a thousand times repeated, of Vile l'Em-
pereur.'—These were also the last words of the
brave men who feil. Never was such enthusiasm—
a British division of 5 or 6,0(X) Scotch was cut.to
pieces • we have not seen any of them prisoners.
The doble Lord must be confounded. There were
upon the field of battle eight enemies to one French-
man. Their. low is said to be 50,0(10 men. Tile
cannonade was like that of the battle of Moskwa.

it This mormag, the 17th, the cavalry of General
Paygol is gone on pursuit of th: Prussians upon the
road to Namur. It is already many leagues in ad-
vance ; whole hands cf prisoners are tAkeii.—They
do not kn:iw what is become of their Commanders.
The route is complete on this side, and -I hope we
shall not soon agam hear of the Prussians, if they
should ever be able to rally at all.
As for the English, we. shall see now what will
become r:l' them. l'he Emperor is hem."
Some private letters from the army give the fel-
lowing particulars:
" Tare English are retiring upon Brussels by the
forest of Sqignies; the Prussians are falling back
upon the Meuse in great disorder.
" The 17th at eleven, P.M. the Emperor had his
head go ii ter s at PlAncheny, a village only five leagues
from I.lruss: :f. The rain fell in toi rents.
.His Ma-
jesty was fatigued, but he was very welt.
"-Count Lobau, who was marching 'with the ith
corps upon• blamer, was, with his vanguard, only
half a leaguilrom the town. Five battalions are
goite from Lille to escort the prisoners taken on the
15th and 16th.

“ We are assured, that Marshal Mort:er, whose
sickness vas become more serious, has arrived at
his estate called Plussis-les•LAndes, near Penis.”

PAM'S, 11311/47E 21.

A report, dated the 15th and 16th June, made by
General Schramm, commanding at Angers, and in
the department of the Maine and Loire, states what
follows :

The General in Chief must be at Chalons: the
communes from Nantes to Napoleon give up their
arms. The inhabitants have pointed out five pieces
of cannon, which were concealed, and which luve
been brought to head-quarters ; the cannon and the
muAtts ate of toglish manufacture.
'the General• in Chief hopes he shall soon restore
tranquillity in the country.
Lieutenant-General Puthod gives a satisfactory ac-
.count of the organization of the national guards in
the 19th division. Two battalions of the national
guards of the Loire left Lyons on the 14th, and by
the orders of Marshal the Duke of Albufera, repaired
to the camp of Chatillon. Another battalion of the
Loire, and four of Puy de Dome, are gone to the
same AlebtinAtion.

The Journal of Nantes contains a Proclamation by
General Travot, dated Cliallans, 15th June, in which
he announces to the inhabitants of the West, that the
legion of that name is going :o be re.orkanised by
an Imperial Decree. Tnis corps, as well as that of
the chasseurs of LA Vendee, is to be exclusively em-
ployed- in tluse countries, and dissolved as soon as
tranquillity is restored. •
A journal mentions Oetrral Dui°lles and' M.
Turpin de Crisse, as two of the principal chiefs of the
Insurgents.
It is annonnced that M. Jules de Polignite has
been arrested near Montmelian. A letter from La-
val announces, that great hopes were entertained of
.rt 61 that country i and that it is al.
Commissioners from the Vendeans are

French fugitives, et destroying the niagazinea, par-
ticularly of gua•powder, and the manufactories ton-
neetad with•theut.
The irtnr Prefect has also put the description of
several persons who have been sou towards Lyons,
and a list of IS persons who escaped from the pri-,

• CH A MUIR OF REPRESENTATIVES.
• SITTING 01 tall 19111
The principal subjcct brought before the Chamber
this day, was the Report presented by M. Duter..
Montt nu the etbninistratieb finances in 11113

and 181+. The projects of the Budget for 1815;
which have not been fully executed, with the project
of a 14W which is the euoitseence of this, are an-
nexed to the report.
The reporter, states, that, there was a great d.•fi-
ciency in 1813, on swung of the invasion, &c. lie
accuses the late Government of having exaggerated
this deficiency beyond all bounds, by stating it first
at 1,700 millions, and afterwards at 759 millions,,
though it never exceeded ISO millions ; thereby ob-
taining a pretext to issue the royal bons, which, de.
preciated from the beginning, would infallibly have
led to the introduction of a paper currency. Tne
Minister proposes to inscribe the amount of these bons,
as well as all the debts of the late Govemment, in
the grand Livre, with interest from the `a2.l of
March, 1815.
The Caisse d'Amortissiment, which the lite Go-
vernment converted into a mere bureau of the royal
treasury, to receive the funds necessit y for the cur-
rent expenses, is proposed to be restored to its origi-
nal destination of a sinking fund. Adding to the 14
millions which it still possesses, four millions of re
venue taken from the forests belonging to the Royal
Family, and a million from other forests, it will be
able to conti:sue its operation of reducing the debt.

Tlic dent is stated at 303,605,000 trAnc., which,
with the indonoities to be paid to the Communes #or
the lands, amounts to 316 millions. The funds 04
the C.tisse d'Amortissimeut m.ty reduce the annual
expense by 24 or 25 millions.
To cover the arrears of 1814, the Mintster pro.
poses to apply the produce of wood to he cut di,wn,
observing, that the I.tte Government exceeded aia tiuv
bounds in this meAstire.

The Budget of 1815 is as incorrect as that of 1814
was, promising an merplus .A 70 milliui,s, while there
is a deficiency of 110 millions.

lhere is ni' tem- about the receipts, except in the
indirect contribta 11113.

The expenses of the war wal occasion an additional
impasse of 120 millions.
As the means destined to meet the extraordinary
expenses, and pay the arrears, though solid, do, not
oiler an ,immecitate resource, and the Goverment
c‘insaluently appears to be poor in cash, though in
the midst of real wealth ; he proposes a national loan
of 150 millions according to the scale of the dip-et
conttibutious, and payable in the same manner from
the Ist July. -[he anisaint of this loan is charged
upon the produce of the tomtit to be felled.
The equipment of the National Guards makes an
extraordinary expellee of 41 millions. This may lie
awi by raising all the sureties (cautionnimens), one-
hfih of wlllcti %%ill produce 30 millions, and be
c:cting a 20th from ail salaries for 2,0%1 to 6,000
moles in ail France, lend a 10th from all salaries
above 6,000 francs.

Au acljdnrnment being proposed, M. Regnault de
jt.lll d'Ani;ely opposed it. 84 The Ministers of
the Earper.-4," said he, 44 have prepared a statement
of the necessary measures in the present ciscum-
stances, sclicli will be immediately presented you in
the mime of the country, in the name of all that is
most sacred to you. I conjure you to lose no time
in adopting the regulations necessary to organize
your prehnitiary labours. Don't you see that cur
enemies, in haste to repair the disasters they have
just rail rienced, are again busy on all sides. Laws
are neeessary to organize our Constitution—to esta-
blish the transmigration of our system into the tour..
tries .which are stretching out tl:eir arms to us. Laws
aft necessary to secure the freedom if the press, to
repress crimes. Have you not even to-day seen it
tnalicinusly stated in a journal, that General Travot
has been made prisoner, and exchanged for M. de la
Tremeille: And this news is published, when La
Vendee is almost pacified, and when they are, per-
bap. disarming at Portsmouth, the vessels intended
to effect landings on our coasts. I protest against
any adj.nnument, till you have improved the mea-
sures, necessary under present circurnst:inces."
M. ReGNAULT afterwards stated tnae was no rea-
son to fear any thing for General Travot, and that
all promises the happiest result.

Cti AirillEft OF PEER!, Mat co. •
After some unimportant discussions, there being
nothing niore on the Order of the day,
M. LATOUR tlaunocao expressed his surprise that
under such important circumaance• there should be
nothing on the order of ti e day, while there were num.
bet itss ohPcts of importance that it was urger .t to put
there; a most important one is this—the Emperor
deductl that he bad ltid down the absolute power
which circumstances had forced him to assume. and
the Constitutional Monarchy WAS put in activity.—
Now the Constitution allows of none but legal ar-
rests. Are those that have taken place for three
months been legal? I require that the Minis'ers make
a report upon all these arrests, that the citmats Who
are tint c allied according to the Constitution may
be res; 'red to their liberty anti to their families.
This unexpected demand excited a degree of asto-
nishment.

M..THicEAUCISAII thought the MOtioll ftenliltAte,
because the Orders of the Mangier, regidreir, Thai,
in make it, an adjournment to a attain day shall
take place.
,M. LATOUR•MAUBoURG Proposed to adjourn to
the next day.

After some &mission, the Chamber adjourned to
Thursday.
