The Rhode-Island Republican. [volume] (Newport, R.I.) 1809-1841, 1815-08-30


English loss is not so great, as was q, first ie-
poried-the grand total being only B4ss.
Private letters from Paris observe, Sc thac
fears are entertained OF the dismembermen,
Of the country by the allies" These fears
we consider nfounded-though 1t is highly
probable, that one or two of the frontier pro-
yinccs may be taken from that kingdom,
most cf It's war implements removed, and
some Of its strong places razed, or garrisoned
by foreign troops.

nSparte into the hands Of the Prince Regent Of G.
BritNin, as prisoner Of war, decides all question
TO his treatment. It is only to be cnquired where he

has been ordered TO proceed with his prisoners d-
rcctly to the Clyde; and that Napoleon will be sub
jected to close confinement to Dumbarton Castle sit
