SIR-The voice OF the French nation had
not ceased to recall the sovereign of their
choice, the only prince competent TO conserve
and guarantee its liberty and independence
The emperor has appeared, and the royal
government exists no more. On the appear
ance of this universal movement in favor of
the legitimate choice of the people, and the
army. the family of the Bourbons were too
well convinced that they must once more be-
come refugees in Il foreign land. They have
fisd from the French soh, and their flight has
not been interrupted by the noise of single
gun, nor has drop of blood been shed in
their support. The military escort which
accompanied them, has DISCHARGED it's duty,
and returned to Bethune, to receive the or
ders OF the emperor. More than half of them
have entered the ranks, the rest having given
up their arms and horses, have, without i'm
Eediment returned to their fresdes, happy
TO have found in the generosity of tie
emperor, a safe asylum. The most profound
tranquility prevails throughout the empire.
In every direction the same exultation is

Gle OF unanimity so perfect. nor expressions

You will see that the tri-colored cockade be

II, at any time you should have occasion to

are assured that the emperor has nothing
more at heart than to maintain peace that
his majesty renounces all projects of gran
deur which may have formerly entered into

You will no doubt consider it your duty to

L4TEST FROM EUROPE.

(NHOOCItAlU, JHNe 4.
Yesterday arrived at this port, the ship
Robert VAIN, capt. Michael Dixon, from
Amsterdam. This vessel left Texel roads
the Goth April.
By this arrival we have been politely favor
ed with Leyden Gazettes up to the 18th A
Dril, but on hasty examination we find but
few articles Of intelligence of an interesting
nature such as they are, however, we shall
translate them for our next.
On the 18th April a report prevailed at
Amsterdam, that hostilities had commenced
in Italy that battle had been fought be-
tween the army of the king of Naples & that
of the emperor of Austria, and that the Aus
trians were defeated with the loss of above
5000 men.
Official information reached Amsterdam,
prior to the sailing of the Robert VAIN, that
the troops which the duke of Angouleme had
collected, had been forced to capitulate, and
that the duke himself was preparing to en-
bark at Cette for England.
The Leyden papers, OF course, speak of
Napoleon in abusive terms, but their columns
prove the reason of it-they contain hume
rous details of the devotion of the people of
France towards the Chief whom they regard
as their shield against the deliverers of inqui-
sitors and monks.
The Robert VAIN left at Amsterdam the
schooner Herald, Captain Williams, to sail
for Baltimore in few days; also the brig
Paulina, formerly Anne Elizabeth, Captain
Doane, to sail IN ballast for Philadelphia in
few days The schr. Sylph of Bait. arrived
from II. York, in the Texel, on the goth A

The followingis the letter written by the
Emperor Napoleon to the allied sover-
egns.
Original letter cfhts Majesty TIE EMPEROR of
the French 10 The soUereigns.
Dir, MY BRoTHER--You must have
learned IN the course of last month, my re-
turn to the shores OF France, my entrance in>
to France, and the departure of the family
OF the Bourbons. The true natare of these
events must be now known to your ma
Jesty. They are the work of an irresistible
power, the work OF the unanimous will of a
great nation, which knows it's duties and It's
rights. he dynasty, which force had res
tored to the French people, was no longer
htted for It. The Boui bons could not asso-
ciate themselves with either its sentiments or
ITS manners. France has sought to separate
itself from them. 1t has called for deliver
err L he expectation which had decided me
10 the greatest OF sacrifices, has been disap-
pointed. L am come and from the point
where have touched the shore, the love of
my people have carried me to the very bo-
som OF my capital. The first wish of nv
heart IS to reward so much affection, by the
maintenance of an honorable tranquility. The
re establishment of the imperial throne W as
necessary for the happiness of the French
NiE 5"eeteSt thought is TO render it at the
same time useful to the security of the repose
OF Europe. Sufficient of glory has, in their
turn, rendered illustrious the standards of the
several nations The vicissitudes of fortune
have sufficiently made great reverscs to sue
coed to great successes. A much finer arena
is tins day opened to Sovereigns, and am
the first to descend unto it.
Alter having presented TO the world the
spectacle of great battles, il will be much
sweeter to know i'll future no other rivalry
than that of the advantages of peace, no o.
Their contest than the holy contest of the hap
piness OF the people. France is pleased to
proclaim, with frankness, this noble end of
all its wishes. Jealous of its independence,
the lnvariable principle of its policy, shall be
the most absolute respect for the indepen-
denCe of other nations. If such are, as en-
tertain; the happy confidence, the personal
sentiments of your majesty, the general tran
guilty is secured for long time and Jus
tlce, seated at the confines of the several
states will singly be sufficient to guard their
frontiers.
