The desire to lay before our readers
az early as possible, all the late imporr
tant news from Europe, has induced US
10 appropriate nearly the whole OF this
mornings PAPER to that purpose. As
the majar part OF our friends, are more
competent than We are, to make correct
deductions from these wonderful events,
we shall not ob.rude any comments OF
our own, upon their attention. We
do not pretend to so much sagaci-
ty as some of Our neighbOrs profess
10 be enducd with; for although we
have our own imtressions, we confess
we cannot see Plainly, the end of the
marvellous revolutions which are pass.
ing, in the moral and political estate of
th& French people. We think it best to
adopt the safe course, and reserve our
n cothec,es Until after the events 70 which
they relac, are pretty we'll accomplished
We live in an age of 7vonders, and he
must be a wonderful man, who is able
TO tell US "what day will bring forth"
The Letter Of MarQue "Regent,"
arrived at New-York from Europe, has
it seems, brought solitary letter, STAT
ing, as the rumor of the day, that Bona.
parte, at the head of 100000 men, had
regained possession o. bis Capital. The
Regent sailed from Nantz ON the 9th
Of April, and the letter is dated at Palm.
beuf the 10th. Some OF the North
ern papers consider this fact alone
sufficient tn discrcdit the reports
We should be sorry hswever, if this
were the only circumstance which goes
to sbew its incorrectness. PaimbGufis
seaport Town, situated 20 miles below
NantZ and the place where slips des-
tined to or from Nantz usually stop
The Regent might therefore have left
Nantz on the 9Th April, and yet receiv-
ed letter written at Paimbeuf The day
after. But the tale itself is not credible.
The Regent brings accounts conhrma-
tory in almost every particular, of
those bro't BY the Ida & Fair American.
These &C counts left the Allies in COM
plcte possession of Paris, and to all
appearance in possession of the conf
dcrce ard coed wishes of the people Of
tha; Gig, Bans paste's army vas redUc-
ed to 10000 men, and according to the
most exaggerated account did not ex.
coed $4,000. The white Flag was flying
ia all quarters OF the En-, pire, and every
bug Indicated the hearty cooperation

OF the Bourbons With these facts be-
lore US, cen it Ge expected that We
shall credit rumar which reinsta,es
Benapsr;e as il were in a moment, in
the possession OF his Capit1l and in
the cot 6dence and hearts of his sub.
iects; rumor not believed at Pam
b9f, the place whence we derive it
We do not think it Improbable, that
Bonsparte may get possession OF Paris
but if he does, it will be by the consent
ofthe Allies. Itsppears, that the French
nation are TO DE at liberty TO cbuse their
own master. If so, they may again
chuse him, when he will of course be

THE FIELD OF BATTLE.

THE FIELD OF BATTLE:
'Tis night the combat's rage is o'er,
The watch fires blaze from hill 10 hill.
The bugle note Is heard no more,
But Ill is solemn, hush'd, and still
Save where some faint aud mournfui tone,
Swells on The midnight breeze. dying moan.
How chang'd the scene. where morn beheld
A gallant hos, in bright array;
While martlxi notes exuitng sweild,
To cheer the brave on danger's way,
and hope ard vslor babe the pulse beat high,
Tbr,ld the warm heart anc iii ed the klndiing
eye.
Now the pale beams by moonlight shed
A field of blood discloses
Where on their chill aud lowly bed
The mar,y''s brave repose,
And the dead calm, the de- oiste suspense,
With nameless horror chills the shuddering
sense.
Thousands are here who sprang to arms.
When the shrill clarion peald the strain
By dangers call or glory's charms.
Ne'ec,o be rous'd sgsln,
Zen now, while shades aud stiffness reign,
A yiewless baud are nesr-the spirits 0t the
slain.
Whence came tha, deep Tremendous sound
Whence broke thst fash ia,en-ely bright
Bursting he midnight Calm profound,
A cannon peal dstu bs the night;
IT'S past, and deeper Is The gloom,
And all again is silent ss The tomb.
Clsncing by fits OH shiver'd Steel.
A qui.'riug light the moon beams throw
And TIM ough the broken clouds reveal
Full many sight ofd aud woe
Cleaning on pslid forms ~rounG.
S,re,ch'd on The soldiers bier, the cold s dewey
ground.
Midnight and death Ger all the soil
fearful deep repose have spield;
Worn with long hours ot martial toii,
The living slumoer with he dead,
Nor hear he wounded family Sigh,
Nor dream OF those who round them bleed aud
die.
Rest, slumberers, rest '--thc morn shall wake,
And r 20 arms again shall rise
Tour sleep the clarion Call shsl II break,
And life and hope shall fire your eyes-
But. oh! what tn housands strew he battle plain.
Whom day spring ne'er shall wake, nor war note
rouse again
