VERY LITE FROM FRANCE.
The French letter Of marque L'iE
terence, Capt. LebLree, arrived here
on ruefaay. in thort paiage from
Bordeaux. A French gentleman, a
pafcnger, politely favored us with a
file of Frerch papers to the 10Th OF
'laft month and a manulcript copy
of a new Imperial Decree. A few
tranflations from the papers, and the
decree, will be found below.
The accounts from the European
continent, in the(e papers, are nearly
month later than before received.
War between France and Aultrla had
not commenced, though the declara-
ton of it was daily expected The
French Ambanador, and Minilters of
the Confederation of the Rhine, had
Quilted Vienna and all the troops
in the North, under the, controul Of
Bonaparte, were in motion, Ioo,eoo
of the troops, which were in Spain,
had returned into France and were
moving ,na.ar9s bavaria, The Em-
was in Paris at the lalt date.
We find but little mention made of
Ruflia and that little did not indi-
cate any thing like her taking part
IN the war againl Auitria. The peace
between Turkey and England is at
tributed in the Paris papers to the
interference Of Auitria.
The tidings from Spain, are late.
Sarragona surrendered the a4th Feb
ruary after a memorable Gege the
particulars of which fiji three of the
papers About 10000 Of the gar
Iiion had paiIed Bayonue.-Thc fouth
OF Spain had not been overrun, nor
had Cadiz been inveited The
