FROM FRANCE.

By passenger in the brig Alliance, from

Is His majesty the emperor Of France
and king Of Italy lief, Paris the sSth March
for Milan, there TO be crowned king: the
25th of May was appointed for the corona
ticn. Previous to his leaving Paris he
was pleased to order the long pending A..
merican claims to be closed, reserv,ng
millions of livres TO be applied to any IN.
substantiated claims that remained behind:
the American minister had given notice to
the several American claimants, thar he
was ready 10 draw on the American govern
ND for the amounts of their respective
awards, in such sums as they should chuse,
and il. francs. ~..y
Mr.. Livingston, our late minister TO
the French court, had returned to Paris
from Italy, and with his family was ex.
pected ar Nantz, in order to embark for
New-York in the ship Mississippi, captain
II. Skidmore, to sail the 10th or 15th Of
MAY. 81
he Pope lett Paris the Sd OF April.
''Gen. Murat has been created Prince,
and appointed Grand Admiral of France.
"'The Toulon Fleet had been out 10
days, when the Alliance sailed.
Business vas exts eme!y dull at Nan,z,
there. was a total stagna,ion; Colonial
Produce pouring in from all parts Of Ame-
RIGA and Lisbon; Coffee was 4S soils, Cot.

"Some warm notes had passed between
Mr.. Armstrong the American minister,
and NJ. Talleyrand, respecting the conduct
of che American Government towards
Spain. Dispatches respecting which are
brought by the Alliance to the Secretary of,
State. Imperial Napoleon has told Mr..
Armstrong, that the Spanish Government

Il is<epnrted that the French govern.
.ment ordered $4,000 troops to cater t'ar-
tugal immediately.
Liable Alaric is said 10 be among the
persons lately arrested at Paris, charged
with being concerned in the newepretended
conspiracy.
We learn thar Nj. BATE, deputy for the
states Of Wirtemburgh, at Vienna, vas
arrested there upon the requisision of the
elcctor of Wirsemburgh, being accused Of
a conspiracy, of which it was the object to
assassinate the elecssr, and his principal

IL Opinion IF the Ffeash plaa.

The plauoa which Bona2arte now chuses
10 conduct the war,is sufficiently apparent.
He Will venture oat aeither with his feet
nor his lntilla ia the face of the. British
navy. His saan and detached squadrons
cal do more essential mischief by annoy
Fisg US ia different quarters anl distr acting
our attention. He has msn IN sufficient
numbers for any enterprize. He values,
them only as counters, with whichhe plays
IA. yraad game that thar is to make him
dictator Of The world. When he has de.
ashed them for a givenpurPose, he neither
expects nor cares for their safety or their
reiurn; all he hopes from then, is, thar
they may do Us essential mischief. With
This view we have not doubt, Limos was
dispatched 10 the East Indies even before
the corr mencemsnto of the var, butin the
expecsatiss, of il. Upon the same princi-
pies the. Rochefert squadron directed It's
course e. the west. Bonaparte has no ex-
psctauons Of making conquests there which
ne can retain !; enough doRe If he can
distress our commerce, and arm the blacks
against US. In pursuance OF the same poll
az he will probably send reinforce mens
. 20 the East Indies he Will endeayor to
land force in Egypt: he will then make
an attempt or at least diversion in Ire

This varied and active warfare, and country
drained of It's regular troops. and deprived
perhaps in part of its protecting fleets, then
