MADRID, MARCH so.
In the Earraordinary Sitting of the Cortes on the
'4th, when the arrive) of Ferdinand was announced
to that body, the following letter pt his M4jesty to the
Regency, written in Spanish with his own hand, was
also read;

• " Ocrena, Ma; eh 24, 1414.
44 I have just arrived here, thank FILAVESI, in per-
fect:health; and General Copons has this moment
delivered to me the letter of the Regency, 'Mid the
documents with which it is accompanied. I will
puke myself acquainted with the whole of their con-
gests, having to assume the Regency that [ have
nothing so much at heart as to give them proofs of
try.aaftsfacOon,.aod of my anxious wish to do eyery
thing that may conduce to the welfare of my subjects.
It is a great consolation for me to see myself on
my own territory, and amidst a nation and an army
to whom I am indebted for a fidelity as constant as
generous. (Signed) " r 'ruts KING."
[Then follows the letter of General Copous to the
Spanish Government, the substance of which is given
in Sir H. Wellesley's dispatch.]
The Secretary at War then acquainted the Cones,
;by order of the Regency, that the latter were anxious
so inform the Congress of the tollowi,ig circumstance :
....-General Socha wished to stipulate with General
Copons, that the possession of the person of the King
alsould serve as it guarantee for the delivering up to
Sachet of the French ganisons of the fortresses of
!which we are not yet in possession, as !Al as those
of Lerida, Monson, and Alequisenza. Ouch a pro.
position was insidious,. as the enemy thus reinforced
with '20,000 men, might have proved an oyermatear
for Lord Wellington, and•the sprea:li:ig of the insur-.
rection 44 favour of Louis XVIII. in the southern de.!
partments of France, might have been impeded. Ge-
neral Copons, however, m tnaged this m suer with
great dee:;:rity, succeeding if obtaining the person of

longing to his old guard. It is only within these two
days that the Paris Papers have found their woirib'

acquainted with their contents, a great number of [he
military hastened to leave Bonaparte. The procla-
mation of the Emperor Alexander, the acts of the Pro-
visional Government, &c. were not placarded at Fon-
tainbleau till last Saturday. Bonaparte was still at
that place yesterday, at noon • hut it is said for cer-
tain that he is preparing for the Isle of Elba. A great
number of troops belonging to the allied armies sur.
round Fontainbleau.

PARIS. APRIL 12.

The 12th of April is destined to furnish to the his-
tory of France one of its brightest pages. The en-
trance of a descendant of Henry IV. into the city of
Paris—his arrival at the church of Notre Dame, to
return thanks to Goo for the mioculous events which
restore to the French the paternal sceptre of he
Bourbons—his return afterwards to the palate of his;
fathers, after such protracted misfortunes: such is the
picture that historians will have to paint, and of which
we can only give a short and imperfect sketch.
At mid-day, the Members of the Provisional Go-
, vernment, and the Commissaries of the several Mini-
sterial Departments, preceded and followed by the
Municipal Body, and numerous detachments of tl:e
National Guard of Paris, repaired to the barrier of
Bondy, to meet his Royal Highness Monsieur, bra
ther of the King and Lieutenant-General of the
Kingdom.
A little before lne o'clock his Royal Highness ap.
peared on the outsi ie of the barrier, surrounded by
several grand officers and officers of his houselvld,
and a group of Marshals of France, who had gone
before to meet him. Monsieur, .and all the persons
wit.) surrounded him, were on horseback. His Royal
HiAliiiess was dressed in the uniform of the National
ard.

At this moment the Members of the Provisional
Government, preceilAl by Masters of cheCeremnnies,
advanced towards lus Royal Highness. The Prince
of 13:nevento, in the name of the Provisional Covet n.
ment, addre►sed the Piince in these terms ;

" MONSE4NEUR-111a happiness which we feel, On
this day of regeneration., is beyond all expression, if
Monsieur receives with that celestial goodness which
d stinguishes his august house, the homake of our reli.
gious tenderness, and of our respectful devotion?'
Tile following is aearly the answer of Monsieur,
as far as could be recollected :
" Gentlemen, Member; of the Provisional Govern'
ment —I thank you for all you have done for our
country. I experience an emotion which deprives me
of the power of expressing all that I feel. No more
divisions ; Peace ; and -France. I see it once more,
and nothing is changed, except that there is one
Frenchroan more amongst you."
The cries of Pivc le Roi ! Pive Mier Amite
de, Bourbon: ! resounded on all sides. His ItAyal
Highness having already entered within theft) mite,
condescended, himself, to requeit silence, and inar-
rupted the acclamations of which himself wits the
object. Then M. Baron de Chabrol, Ptefect Of the
Department of the Seine, presented to his Royal
Highness the Municipal 13ody of
Paris, tad pro-
nounced the following speech ;
M.INSF4ONILUR--4tter twenty years of misfor.
tune, France sees again with transport the August
Family, which, during eight centuries, secured its
glory and happiness. The City of Paris, the con-
stant object of the affection of its Kings. ranks this
day among the most gloi ious which have shone upon
it since the commencement of the Monarchy.
" The whole of France sighs t,,r the return of her
King : she is at last permitted to indulge the pro.
spect of repose under the p:otection of the paternal
authority of the descendants 01 saint Louis And of
Henry IV. She expects frptu them the same af;
fection.
0' Times of disaster, which were neither withnui
glory nor without eclat for the honour of France,
have not altered the character of u generous nation ;
a ttrelary power is about to smite all wishes, all inte-
rests, and all opinions : warriors, magistrates, chi-,
rens, ell Frenchmen, feel at the bottom of their hearts
that transport of affection which attaches the French
to the noble blood of the Bourbons anirnniedby the;
same spirit, they will form only one family.
't your Royal Highness will gratify the wishes of
a whole people, who are eager to crowd around you;
you be affected in aglin beholding those places
full of the memorials of your august ancestors, and
which were always so dear LIS you: you will hear the
joyful acclamations resounding on all sides; you will
scr 1101)e again inspiring all hearts, and the happiness
of the country will console you for yor lops and
protracted sufferings "
Monsieur listened to this speech with that Affecting
goodness wino characteries a son of. tfie great
Henry. He discovered the deepest emotions;''and
'employed'M in his &OW
those engaging manners and
those French graces which are so familiar to him,..'
The cavalcade then advanced from the barrier of
Bondy to the suburh.,and the street of St. Penis,
through which it repaired to the metropolitan church.
The advance of the Prince was retarded hy the trans-
ports 'of aoy of an immense crowd eager to see him.
iielA/ fries of Five le Rai .Pive Monsiear ! resounded
every where as he passed. His Royal Highness an-
swered by demonstrations of the wai roes; benevolence
those wishes universally sent up by French hearts,
and manifested with art enlln impossible to he
described. It was nearly three hours before the ca-
valcade reached the church of Notre Dame.
l'he church; which could Rothe Very magnificently
prepared for the occasion in the short space of scarcely
21. hours, presented an appearance much superior to
all possible decorations. In the sanctum/. 'were as-
sembled the Cardinals, Archbishops, and Bishops;
that were at Paris, and the Clergy of the metropolis
and itX envirpns : in the choir and in the upper part
of the Mae several 'of rhe*Kincip4.lotidibs of the State
an I .comaderable number 'of Geiverili and officers,
both 'French and foreigneis. 'Thepave, the passages,
antalles, were filled with imluefise ceoerd of specs
tat Ors, 'waiting for dig ;p4o,cp xvi!h, the most lively
Itliotibn, whim some were cagey to recognize, and
:bents to mfor `tat 6nt Cu*. 'Arlan tin arrival
. , .

'as announced by long continued acclamation'.
The Canons, in their robes, waited for his Royal
Highness at the great gate of tl e Ourch. He was
received under the canopy, and his first movement
was to throw I itnself on his knees to return thanks
to GOD. The angelic expression which was painted
at the moment on the august features of the Prince
„annruniced that his gren4oul concsive44.. thought'
of affection and generosity,. It was-easy to perceive
that Monsieur was asking of Goo the bappi,ness of the

The Abbe isemire, in the name (idle Chapter of
the Cathedral, pronounced a speech, to which the
Prince made an answer, full of grace • and goodness.
On the passage of his Highness into the nave and into
the choir the cries of Five le Roil Five Notati,w•
were repeated with an ardour that the sanctity of the
place could not restrain.
Monsieur was conducted by Baron de eramaycl,
performing the oflice of master of the ceremonies, t.
the chair and desk which were reserved tor him unde-
' a canopy in the middle of the choir. His Royal High.
ness took his place there, surrounded by leis officersl
and almoners. Behind the chair of Monsieur Were
chairs, on which were placed the Members of the Pro.
visional Government. Around the Prince, on his
right and left, were General Desolles, Ci.mmandant
of the National Guard, and of the Department of the
Seine, the Marshals of France, and the Commissaries
for the 'Ministerial Department : in front of the chair
of his Royal Highness wete the Masters of the Cere.
monies, with their assistants.
The enthusiasm with which all the French were
animated was rapidly communicated to the Russian,
Austrian, Prussian, English, Spanish, and Porn.
geese Merl, stationed in the choir of the cathedral.
Many shed tears of joy. It appeared'as if the whole
of Europe, represented by a selection of French and
foreign warriors, swore at that moment peace, the
blessing of which is about to beat the deep wound, of
France ; our generous Allies expressed by the most
lively demonstrations, that Europe is henceforth to
Corm only one family. Old servants of the Prince
approached him, melting into tears and kissing his
iiands, while a sage look from Moneteur repaid them
for all the calamities they have suffered.

The Canons having taken their stations in the
sanctuary, the Te Dana was performed at the grand
orchestra. It was follreved by Amine :alma fie
rqre, >f hich all hearts repeated.
'The ceremony being over, his Royal Highness was
ennducted back under the canopy, aspid acelsunations
still louder, if possible, than those which were heard
at his arrival. He again mounted his horse, and the
cavalcade that had gone to meet him at the barrier
conducted him to the Palace of the Thuilleries, amidst
the transports and effusions of a people abandoning
themselves to the most lively enthusiasm.
At the moment of the Prince's entering the palace,
the white flag was hoisted over the pavilion of the
centre, amiJ the acclamations of the innumerable
crowd who covered the gardens of the Thuilleries....
His floral Highness, before entering hie apartments,
went throagh all the ranks of the national gland,
with which the court 01 the palace was filled. He
conversed aid) a great number of them, took them
by the hand with and to all used the most
affecting language, which Trench Darts eageriy rest.
ceived. Being conducted to hit apartments by his
at tendants, he gave several audiences; at the conclu-
sioa of which the cavalcade retired, carrying away
those lively impressions, the memory of which
never be effaced.
When his Royal Highness had reentered his apart-
ments, .one of his suite said to him, Your Royal
Highness must be much fatigued." if How," re.
piled the Prince, 44 should I be so fatigued on such a
day as this—the first dap of happiness which I have
experienced these twenty-five years past."
In the evening the greater part of the public edi%
fices, and a great number of private houses, were
spontaneously illuminated, and decorated with inge.
eioux emblems.
At the Thwart Frosair, in the evening, was per.
foe/lied the piece called i he Bvseieg Party of Harry 11.!..
which had not been performed ter twenty years be-
fore. The allusions which it presented to the ex;st-
frig state of affairs, were eagerly seized wad cheered
with indescribable enthusiasm. The natioesl air of
Pot Henry V. was joined in by the Audience with
exclamations of Ply( le Roil Ville Owings. l and ta
the scene where the health of the good Henry is
drank, the spectators, amid the loudest acclamations,
made the performers follow it up by giving the healths
of the King and his august Brother, and of the Em-
peror Alexander and the Allied Sovereigns.
