The Britith prifoner of wit, Chevalier Cum:-

all perrnitflons iir.tracki to Englilh p:ifuners to be re-

"l'he Minitler of Police, Senator FOUCHR, has

the times, which would convince opt pollerity that
this is the ne of ambition and egotifm. Village.
citrates have demanded bilhoprics, and borouglx
fcribblers (greyfieri ) !tars of the Legion of Honour ;
old maids have diced for huibands, and old bache- ,
lors for wives, and both for prefent penfions to fop-
port future families. There is not a place at the
Imperial Court, or in the Imperial Palaces, that has
not thoufands of pretenders, from that of the Prete&
of the Palace down to the fcullioa in the kitchen—
from that of the porters by the gates up to that of
the Commander of the Guards in the anti-chambers.
Were the Emperor to accept of as many maids of
honour as have offered themfelves, the Thuilleries,
St. Cloud, and Malmaifon, would Coon contain more
women than all Paris now does ; and were he to in
creafe his gentlemen of the bed•chamber, gentlemen
in waiting, pages, &c. with all thofc who have pre.
tenfions to theca places, they would furpafx in num-
ber the foldiers of the army on the coati Were
his Majefiy to appoint as many fenators, legiflators,
tribunes, counfellors of Rate, &c. as he has been
petitioned to do, hardly a Frenchman pall 3o would
be found who did not belong to one or other of there
conflituted authorities. If every officer, who claim-
ed it, were promoted to a General, and every foldier
who Liefired to the rank of an officer, France would
Court have two numerous armies, one of Generals, and
another of Officers ; but the would have none compo-
fed of foldiers. As to the commanderies, cohorts, and
croffes of the Legion of Honour, hardly a perfon is
found who undertlinds how to read and write ; how
to draw a (*word, or prefent a &clock ; bow to row
an oar, and Deer a boat; how to compofe an epigram,
or arrange mufic for a ballet ; how to play a tune,
or dance a talks ; how to ling a mats in churches,
or to pronounce a fpeech before Tribunals ; how
to afcend in a balloon, or to dive in water ; how
to cure a cold, or dcftroy rats; how to paint a
figs' poll, or build a furnmer-boufe ; how to make
cradles, or fie's coffins; who has niaeloAy enou,;h to
meal upon them, not as favours granted, but as re-
wards due to merit or eminence. We can affure our
readers that this Ratemeat is not exaggerated ; and
as we have infected it from the mob patriotir of mo-
tives, we fincerely hope, that every difappointed pe-
titioner, who, in reading this, will find its 'idiotic, in-
Dead of grumbling as neglated, will Laugh at his
own vanity and prefumption as titlicillous.-7Jornal

The Spanifh Ihip St. Antonin, arrived IA week at
Bnurdeaux from Cayenne, and has brought fcveral
lltters, all confirming the flniiiifhmg Itate of this en.
bony. Several tranlported perfons have etiablifhed
new plantations, and all tue oid ones arc drily im-
proved. The precious (piece of India prolper by the
fide of the indigenous produition. of America, ,nd
the fame hand gathers upon the fame ground the
cocoa carried from the (orals of the new world, the
cotton and coffee of Arabia, the cloves of Ceylon,
the pepper of Malabar, the cinnamon of the MAuc•
ca Wands, which form exaaly the antipode. of Ca,-
cone. The fule plantation, Cotaielle, the property
of Government, furndhec alone more doves than all
France can confume. Bread-fruit trees- are multi.
plied in manner, that in Come few years they will
produce fruits enough for all the inhabitants of the
Colony, and will procure to the nave, as well as tn
the matter, wholefoms nutriment: Thefe blellings
are fomewirat diminilhed in their'valne, by the con-
tinual diffentions among the ttanfported faainns.--
The Royalifis and Jacobins are mote irreconcileable
in America than in France ; they not only kill each
other in daily duels, but burn each other's propetty,
and excite the Negroes againtk each other. The
1%411161i Jacobin, of terrible memory, GeandMaifon,
in the middle of the night, let fire to the habitation
of the Royalill Benoit BA, who, with his wifq,
three children, and two fillers, perifhed in the flames.
GI ainlmailoa has fence been executed; but the rage
of parties is always the fame, and the Governor,
ViCtor liti:;nes, has therefore been under the neeeflity
of propoling to the Government, either to fend away
the Jacobins or the Royalifis to fonie other Colony.
