Mr. LoRD-I have the honor to annex
herewith copy of the capt. ulation of the
City OF Paris. j feel it impossible to convey
to your lordship an accurate idea, or Just
description OF the scene that presented it,
self yesterday i'll the capital, when his I'm
periai Majesty the Emperor of Russia, the
King OF Prussia, and Prince Swartzenbnrg,
made their entry at the head of the allied
troops. The enthusiasm and exultaton
that was exhibited must have very far ex.
ceeded what the most sanguine and devo>
ted friend OF the ancient dynasty of France
Could have pictured 10 his own mind, and
those who are less personally Interested.
but equally ardent in that cause, could no
longer hesitate ia pronousc;ng chat the res.
toration of their legitimate King. the down
tall OF Bonaparte, and the desire Of peace,
has become the first and dearesc wish Of
the Partisans, who have by the events ON
the two last days been emancipated from a
system OF terror aud despo,ism impossible
TO describe, whils they have been kept in
an. ignorance, by the arts of faisehood and
deceit, incredible for an enlightened PEG
pie, and incomprehensibie to the rejecting

Grand Duke of Constantine, and the guards

together with the Prince Field Marshal ana
the Austrian Etat Major, passed through
the Fauxburg ST. Martin, and entered the
barrier OF Paris about IL o'clock, the Cos

great, thatit was difficult to move forward;
Out before the monarch reached Port de ST.

hapds on all sides, it was in ain 70 attempt
to satisfy the popuiace.
nave the honor to annex the declaration
OF the Emperor Alexander. Bonaparte, it
now appears, moved his army from Troyes

regulated by the movements Of Bonaparte
