potisat of Bonaparte was suffered. because it led to
honour and glory ; but that despotism which has no
other object than to replace the nation under the feu-
dal yoke, under the axes, the saws, and harrows ef the
Church, will never be tolerated. It is only by a
strict adherence to the Charter, that the House of
Bourbon can hope to remain on the Throne : let it
secure the love of the nation, and not excite its hatred
or contempt. The danger is great; it is imminent
with respect to the Regicides—all France i 3 regicide,
and most of alt those who cr y out so much against
them. Certain letters are not forgotten : they are
too precious documents to be neglected, and were. we
to produce them, the real Regicides would be found
where they are least suspected; but even grantiv,g the
charge to be true, and part of the exiles were Regi-
cides, the will of Louis XVI. expressly forbids all
his family either to avenge or punish ; and the Char-
ter declares, that no one shall be troubled for any
opinion, or votes emitted before the restoration. Here,
then, oblivion of the past is recommended by the
Charter: there was no pardon to grant, no person to
pardon; the faults, errors, and crimes, of all parties,
Royalist and Republican, were equally to be buried
in oblivion. But say the others, the Regicides re-
lapsed and brought Bonaparte from Elba ; we deny
the charge, and we defy them to produce the slightest
legal proof of the fact; indeed, four years have
elapsed, and it has been impossible to discover the
slightest trace of any one having co-operated with
him. The cause of his return is very s'mple : he ceded
the crown on certain conditions, those conditions
were refused to be fulfilled, and he returned to re-
sume possession of what he considered his property ;
every man would do the same Its an estate, why not
fora kingdom? But, add the Ultras, the Regicide.-
did not defend the King in March, 1815 ; true, znd
we should like to discover the name of one sir.gl?
person who did defend him : it ought to be hung up
in the Temple of Fame, and thus pronounce the con-
demnation of all parties, from the Ultra to the Jaco-
bin, who deserted their Monarch in the hour of ncel.
The Ultras, indeed, s•xote to defend him ; these gen-
tlemen in pace Lconcs, in prali9 cerri, sheaved that
the old parable was preph;:tic as to them ; for no deer
could run so fast, or so ftr as they did when the
moment of danger approached. It is to the advice,
the wretches that N pions pension was not
pi.l; dint he returned 'coin Elba ; and that sixty
millions sterling of 13titish property, and much of her
best blood was shed to replace matters as they were.
Thee are the wretches whom England fed with the
bread of her children during twenty-five years, and
who, after .all, are seeking, even at this very moment,
the downfall of England, and intriguing with Russia,
who strives to be prepared for all circumstances ; but
-a previous operation is called for by certain ti.en ;
viz. the dethronement of Charles John. This has
long been meditated, but a certain Power is not yet
strong s ough to attempt it, and England knows her
own interests too well to be cajoled by the sycophan-
tic promises of the parries to the Sainte Allitrnce; she
will not forget that the league was formed under a
similar name, La Sainte Union.
etr The expreulons of M. Bignon, alluded to by onr Corres-
pondent, appeared in a speech which he published as intended
to have been spoken upon Cie Ea* question. The following is
the passage literally :
Independently of all the other considerations which I have
had the honour of presenting to you (the Dcputica), there yet
remains, in favour of the proscribed exiles, a particular argu-
mert,fusuided upon a fact with whickfe:cpcee are acquainted ; a
ter-nide argument, the echo of which I dread in the Chamber,
and on which,fcr the sake of Me Government, I think it my duty
to be silent. I check myself. The dart, once discharged, will
not return. I abstain from using, for the present, a weapon so
tfangerosa, and nothing shall force me to employ it at a later
period, unless invincible obstinacy, on the part of the Govern-
ment, shall compel me to dose in the fulfillment of my rigorous
duty. I persuade myself tLe Ministry will duly appreciate my
present silence.'
" Such is the mysterious menage thrown out by M. Bignon.
The Journals pronounce it beyond their penetration, and call
upon the author to explain it. The Ministers have not dared,
eltlizr In the Chamber or in their Journals, to demand ar
expli-
cit stawrnent of the accusation with which they are threatened.
a is stated that a Membe: of :he Chamber has intimated to M.
Pignon his intention or cziHng publicly for an explanation of
what he meant, in 'his place as a Deputy. M. d'Argensdn also
thrcatzns a disclo,,ure in his printed speech. lie has in his pos-
session a sufpleincntaty pros:rlption list, drawn up and duly
signed by the French 'Minister, under the influence of, and in
concert with, foreign legations, but which was not enforced."

We have this day received New York P. pens one
Jay later than those of yesterday.

Arrived la Irresistable, from Sea, brought by Cartaia Child
from Patuxent, where he took charge of her. Thc re was found
on hoard none but the assumed Captain and five men of 92 who
went off with her from blargarita. It has been found impoulble
to get a true narrative of their cruize after leaving Margarita,
but judging from the quantity and the various objects slkwn
and offered for sale by them in the Patuxent and other parts of
the Bay, they must have robbed several vessels, which nothing
but time will bring to light.
