and nothing was wanting to the splendor
of the most delightful fete that we have ever
behelt:
On the arrival of the Emperor and EN-
press at the avenue of NeuriIiy, the drums
began to beat, the bands of music struck up.
the cannon fired, &c. Their Majesties
stopped about ten minutes under the trium-
phal arch at L'Etoile, where they were
complimented by the magistrates of Paris.
The Emperor and Empress reached the
Ihuilleries at two o'clock amidst the same
acclamations.
!. The ceremony of the chapel having lasted
nearly three quarters of an hour, was sue
ceeded by repetition of the same accla
nations and the same tokens of respect and
attachment. Their Majesties returned to

1t rs also impossible, except for those who
saw them, to form an adequate conception
OF the richness and elegance of the illumi-

FROM LISBON.

Captain Aswell, who arrived at this
port on Thursday, left Lisbon on the 14th
April.
The French had not advanced towards
Portugal. British reinforcements arrived
frequently.
No vessels from Portugal are admitted
in Russia but vessels from the Brazils,
and the islands, except Madeira, are.
BY captain A. we are favored with pa.
pers to April IA. They mention the posi-
tions Of different French corps in the int
rior of Sham. They had each patriot ar
mics opposed,to them.
Parties of patriots were active in many
places. and were constantly making prison
ers OF. or destroying small bodies of the
French. There appear to be frequent de
sertions from the invaders. The Duke OF
Abrantes was at Assorga.
