FOREIGN NEWS.

From the New-YCrk Evening Post, May 10. /
Oar London dates BY the packet ship
Manhattan, Capt. Croker, are brought
down TO the 9th of April. War had not
yet commenced. The London Sun Of
the 4th of April, persists in the state
ment that the British government had
received the French declaration of war,
and adds that Mr. Canning and the
French Ambassador had been closeted
two hours on the important subject at
Gloucester Lodge. The Courier of the
9th April ridicules the statement made
by the Sun-calls them untrue and alb
surd, and declares that no declaration Of
war had been drawn up by the French
government. Thus matters stood at the
last date, on the great question of peace
or war, as near as we can understand it
from the papers. We only remark that
The Courier is no longer considered the
ministerial paper; the Sun has sue
ceeded TO that honour.
Parliament adjourned on the Goth OF
March, for the Easter recess, TO the
10th of April. From what fell from
both Lord Liverpool and Mr. Canning,
previous to closing the session, it would
appear that the British government pro-
TESS TO act strictly neutral part. To a
question put by Lord John Russell, in
the House of Commons, to Mr.. Canning,
as to the nature of the treaties with the
Allied Powers relative to France, the
latter replied that they were bound, in
the event of a revolution occurring ia
France in favour of any of the Bonaparte
family, to repress il by force of arms
and that, in the event of any other rev
olution, they were bound TO consult
with the Allied Powers as to what meas
ures it might be expedient TO, pursue.

70 tie Editor Of HE N. Y. Ereni,g Post.
Sir-On my arrival here yesterday,
inthe Sea Gull, accompanied bv barge,
from among the haunts Of tue pirates,
near where Allen fell by their hands,
the Evening Post of the 10th inst. was
handed 10 me, containing paragraph,
which, as il IL written in Terms both
complimentary and courteous, and APP
pears 10 have been dictated by re-
gard for the pubIick interest, shall
answer; and hope TO satisfy you and the
publick. 10 whom your inquiries were
directed, that every effort has been
made, not only by myself, but those
under my. command, 10 fulfil the benev-
client intentions OF our country, in send
ing a squadron Of small vessels into these
seas for the suppression Of piracy, and
that those intentions have been fully
complied with, and executed with a
promptness rarely instanced,,
The paragraph alluded 10 is as fol-
lows -" Alter reading the above narra-
tive, at which the blood runs cold, will
it be thought unreasonable if we now
ask, where is the American squadron
under the command Of Com. Porter,
which promised US so much, and has,
asyet, we must say, performed SO little /?
About the middle of Feb. it saiIed from
Norfolk ; the Sd of March it arrived at

gence that has reached us respecting
Com. Porter's squadron, that was, we
were told, destined TO cruize off Cuba,
Tor the purpose Of cfiecting the sup
preston Of piracy in that quarter but
which is prosecuted with increased and
triumphant success every day. If we
did moi know that all confidence may
be placed in the resolution, activity and
sagaciiy Of Com. Porter, we might be
led to entertain some doubts whether
bis squadron had been disposed Of in
the most efficient manner for securing
the object declared and intended. BIT

We stated, Yesterday, that we had not
then received any information ourselves,
either from French papers or from pri-
yate letters, Of the extent or of the ex-
istence Of conspiracy in the French
army, TO attempt another revolution
We conttnted ourselves, therefore, with
merely ailuding to the reports that had
been circulated in,the city. We have
this morning, however, received &C
counts upon the accuracy of which our
readers may rely. They are not ex-
tracted from the Paris papers, which
are very imperiecfly informed the
evening paper of Monday stating moth
ing more than that diligence, going
from Paris, was stopped at the tarrscr
d. En- fer, and six persons takeh out Of
It, carried to the Prefecture Of Police,
examined, and three more persons ar.
rested after their examination.

There has. Jesa conspiracy, which
had for its objectto re-plunge France,
aud consequently other parts of Europe
into all the miseries and guilt OF another
revolution. But the conspiracy did not
break out in the army Of the Pyrenees,
though the conspirators hoped to make
it the instrument of their criminal prof.
ects and, with that view, meant to de-
spatch their emissaries from the differ
ent capitals of Europe TO the Pyrenees.
The secret councils Of the conspirators
were held in Paris, London, and other
capitals.
The attention Of our readers was G-
rected, yesterday, 10 some very impor-
tant information communicated in let
ter, which stated, "that all the French
and Italian exiles, and those disaiiected
TO the French government, are IN Spoin
or hdsteniag Mither''
The letter enumerated the names oil
those who had left America-and OF
others who had sailed on the 18th oil
this month, in the brig Fanny, from
Grayesend for Corunna, I" several OF
whom were under sentence of death for
conspiracies in france. They were
provided with TgI-coLoUaED cockADEs
AND TRI-coIouRED FLAGS; - and their in
tention was 10 send down the tri-col-
cured flag from the heights Of the Py-
renees--to bring back the son Of Buona-
partc"-to put down the Bourbon flmi-
ly in France first, and afterwards 10 put
down the Bourbon family in Spain.
A correspondence, kept Up between
the above persons and several other of
ficers of the same principles in Different
towns in France, and particularly in
Paris, gave the signal for active opera
tions and at the time the Fanny sailed
from Grayesend, several diligencies set
out from Paris, and other places, con
yeying tri-coloured flags and cockades
and some of the conspirators Most OF
the principal ringleaders have been
taken up-the names Of the other ring
| leaders are known, and the number
does not exceed twenty-five. The
| French army itself is perfect stranger
TO these and to ali other conspiracies
and perfect reliance upon its fidelity
and lis honour is placed by the Govern
ment of Louis XVIII.
Since writing the above, we have
received later. accounts. Our readers
may rely on the accuracy Of the fore
going information.
1t was not conspiracy in the army,
but against The army, contriycd at PARIS
and at London.
