LONDON:
MOND tY, VEDILV %KY 28, 1814.

iette of &dimity night contains the vari-
ous dispatches brought by the Right Honourable
liir.,Roassaon from France. These, as their whole
Conte is had been previously published in the Go.
vernment OQicial Bulletin, are entirely without in-
terest. There is one dispatch, however, a copy of
Which appears in the Gazette, which is of a nature
the most extraordinary, and which appears to us to
warrant i:.ferences of considerable importance. This
is no other than a dispatch, addressed by Mr. Ro-
nINSON himself to Earl BATHURST, dated London,
Feb. 21, the day of his arrival. This is to be dis-
tinguished from the other dispatches, in as much
as the latter are written for the purpose of con-
veying ieforrention to Government', whilst the
sole object of the former, must have been its pub-
lication in the Gozctle for the information of the
public. It will be remarked, that in the official
Bulletin, issued on Thursday last, no mention
Whatever is made of any written communication
made by Mr. Itumsors ; the other dispatches am
distinctly mentioned, whilst the intelligence con-
eyed by hits is clearly understood to be- merely ver-
bal. From this het it evidently nppears that the
dispatch must have been manufactured subse-
quently to the publication of the Bulletin, on
what day we cannot be certain, for though dated on
the t lth, it does not meet the public eye, its exist-
ence is not known to the public, till the night of
the 2eth. Ft what purpose, then, is this very un-
usual course pursued: To add any thing to the in-
formation already possessed by the Public ? Such
would appear to be its purpose, if, in reality, it did
add any thing to this information. The chief facts it
narrates—the successful attack on Fontainbteau—the
overthrow of WITTGENSTEIN'S advanced-guard—the
positions of the Allies at the bridges of Moutereau
and Bray, being forced—and the consequent return
of SCHWARTZENBERO'S head-quarters to Troyes,
bad been already set forth with sufficient clearness in
the Bulletin. Why then this supplementary
dispatch ? Why this new and improved edition
of w account before sufficiently explicit and
mtis&ctory ? These questions will be best an-
swered by considering in what the improvotheats
