opportutity of subscribing before the price is raised. As many
do not understand the reason tor an advance of price, as was
the case with Stephens Greek 77tesairrtus, it should be stated that
it it done not only as a bonus to Subscribers, who alone enable
a work to be printed, but also. to precut a future fall in the
price, by printing a very few copies over the subscription, which
' being uncertain of immediate sale, must of course be charged
higher.

PRIVATE LETTER. •
' .. Par.is, $17773111211. 30.
" The following intelligence concerning Bonaparte
is widely circulated at Paris. It proceeds from a re-
spectable individual who has just reached Marseilles.
He embarked at Bengal on board aii English vessel.,
On touching at S. Helena to supply the ship with'
water, orders were dispatched for the vessel to quit
the anchorage ground. and lay to at cannon slit't
from the batteries until what was wanted was • sent
out. Several Officers from the island dined on board f
I from them the particulars I subjoin were collected:
" Bonaparte seems in better health since he has re-
solved to walk out and take occasional exercise in'
hunting and fishing. To render this latter att:o..e-.
ment compatible with his safety, a circuit has been
prepared at the mouth of the river, and one end of it
barricadoed with an iron lattice, in order to close op
the passage of boats to the ocean. Four handsome
fowling-pieces nod six pointers have been sent out to
him from London. Bonaparte is permitted to carry
a sabre, as a defence against dangerous or trouble.,
some ;mini:lfs when he walks in the interior of the
isioaid biithe•ii not allowed to wear a sword.
" The English Officers amused themselves with
relatidg the abrupt manner in which he pays his court
to the women. The persons composing his suite are
not permitted to accost him with the titles of Sove-
reignty when strangers are present. The prisoner is
believed to be more resigned to his fate, since he ht.s
he entire conviction of the irrecoverable loss of his
liberty. His re<idence is daily improved by the nr-
rival of costly furniture ; and every month a frigate,
which sails from England, is charged by the cure
aid attachment of some of his partisans with .all the
precious novelties that kingdom produces.
" No human power can imagine a mode of evasion.
The garrison is perpetually on the alert. The service
is so i.ctive, that the troops are relieved every six.
months, and that independently of the high pay, thii
