example ;, but it appears that the spirit of the sot. i
diery . and of the ciitizens is daily rising, and that I ,
Bonaparte, consequently, has found more obstaelsi i ,
than he expected in executing his projects;
Those movements which have taken place in seve.-„
ral departments that have joined Bonaparte, resulted ! ,
from the false telegraphic dispatches which were con. ;
veyed to several of the Chiefs, unknown to Govern-
ment. . In these dispatches it was said the King was 1,
dead—that the Princes were in ilight-that a Novi. `, ,
'iota! Government was established in Paris, &c. &c, ',
It appears that all this was arranged before hand by
those Generals who were in the plot.
The cries of 66 rive Napoleon !" are heard from
time to time ; but they are instantly stifled by the
cries of " Vioe le Roil" It cannot be denied, how. ,
ever, that there at Paris a great number of persona 1 ,
attached to the dethroned Tyrant. The Students al
the Pyrotechnic School have had battles among ! ,
themselves about his cause ; and his adherents were I ;
the stronger party. Generally speaking there is aI!
great fermentation in Paris, but every thing is calm i ,
in appearance.
There was a talk last night of a total change int 1
the Ministry. M. De flichelieu was named foe thej
/ideate, idaWtotetage forrhi 'Ma rill'', M. GodiAT'
for the Finance, and, wonderful to say, M. Fourhe I ,
for the Police. But the Mositeur this morning
mentions only the nomination of the Prefect of Po. I I
lice.

. P. S. Bonaparte arrived at Lyons on the 10th, at
eight o'clock in the evening. The next day he re-
viewed his troops, as well as the National Ly.ifinese
Guard, to whom he has given arms, which he took
from the manufactory of St. Etienne. He has dis-
tributed Crosses, and nominated Prefects and other
functionaries. He has issued bills upon the public
Treasury, and performed other acts of Administra-
tion. He is preparing to advance. All these details
have been communicated to us by letters from Lyons
of the 10th and 11th, which arrived last night in
Paris. Bonaparte permits the Couriers to depart from
Lyons as usual. He makes his arrangements with the
greatest confidence and as if he did not anticipate
any obstacles. . '

EXTRACT OP A PRTVATE LETTER FROM FAITS;
DATED 16TH INST.

Political dissensions are again at their height. here.
A plot of the deepest cast is developing. The re-
iteration of BONAPARTE seems to have been planned,
and determined on at the very moment of his abdica.
tion. The accomplishment of it, however, is not
found so easy uit was believed it would be. The
King's party are very strong, and the premature dis-
covery and failure of some of the ramifications, cif
thb plot have given additional strength to the Rpyei
Party. TALLETRAND not free from suspicion.—
It is believed that he has been preparing the way for
the return of ISTAeor,EoN. His protest against the
encroachments of the Sovereigns at the Congress af-
fords a colour for such a belief.

SOULT, wbo has been dismissed, came into office at
the desire of TALLEYRAND. BONAPARTE'S delaying
to visit the capital, is owing to theplot not having suc-
ceeded in alt its parts. He is evidently waiting the re-
sult of some efforts here and elsewhere. The struggle
will not be long. Both the former and present pos.
sensor of the French Throne are Very critically situ-
ated. .

Implicit credit is not to he given to the statements
in the public Papers—indeed the real extent of the
danger now menacing the general tranquillity, is much
concealed.

A letter or the 3d inst. from Leghorn, gives the
following particulars telstive to Bonaparte's clever,.
tore from Elba :

66 What little detail we hare of the manner and
time of Bonaparte's escape is as follows :—Vague
and doubted reports had been circulated here, and
at Porto Fermi°, for some days previous fo his em-
barkation. lie took the opportunity of tire Part
fridge sloop of war leaving the island for this place
on Saturday last, to carry his plan into execution.
At seven in the evening he began to embark, and at
three o'clock on the Sunday morning he sailed bills
own brig, the inconstant, which the Allies and France
had allowed him to retain, accompanied by a large
bombard and four felaeras, laden with artillery, his
carriages and his troops, forming in 1011000 Men.
In the meanwhile, Colonel Campbell had arrived
from Fit:lnce, expressing Much tosiety to get over

Amongst the many gallant officers who &Min.:
guished themselves at the late unfortunate ettick on.
New Orleans, the conduct and bravery of Lieut.
AUGUSTUS FREDERICK ESTE, the DUKE of Siisaax's
Son, has been mentioned ; and a particalar comet&
nication made to his Royal Highness the Duke of
YORK by General LAMBERT, expressive of his high
approbation of this gallant young officer, whilst act.
ing as his Aid-de-camp.
We regret to learn that there were some disturb=
antes at Norwich on Friday the 11th inst. The only
particulars which have yet reached 'us, are given la
the following communication from that city :--;•
" FRIDAY. TORRE O'CLOCIL.—Mr. Coat. of Holkhasa,
having attended here a cattle-show tieday, the Norwich rabble
availed themselves of the oppnrtoitity to commence a tint they
threatened him vehemently, and he took shelter at the Angel
Inn. At present he limits., but the mob have broken to ;titres
SIM gates, and um likewise stoning the Mayor and posser the
Sheriffs have br.iught in here (the Angel Inn) three of the lead-
ers of the rioters. So many of Site respectable imitmbitaals are
assisting the Mayor and Sheriff; Inane, that the rabble alit

VIRE.—The wife of a journeyman carpenter, in`
Tyson.street, Saint Catharine's, went out on Se.

age, with a candle burning upon the table. A short
time after she was gone, the neighbourhood wet

and its life was happily saved; but the house was
