/ The Paris Monitew OF Wednesday the 18th uIt \.
conveyed the following intelligence as received by
i the Government from Tahlta, dated oath April -
/ "Atter having valnly endeavored 10 bring back TO
their obedience the rebels who made the attack al
| Taravau, Governor Braut went OUT to meet them
| at Mahahan, where they had made themselves
entertainments, defended by three thousand men
and three pieces OF cannon. On the l7th, Governor
Braut landed with four hundred and forty. one men
OF arms. The redoubts were taken with the bayo
| net the enemy having lO2 men killed, their c0lOTs
akea from them, and their cannon spiked. The
next day we destroyed their works, and carried

| we have TO lament the loss OF two officers, M
| Nausouty, enseigne de vaisseau, and M. SeIgnette
Of the Artillery. We had, besides, 81 men wound

| The most prominent feature in the intelligence is,
that a treaty had been concluded between the
United States and the Celestial Empire, based upon
| the same principle as dictated that between E0g
land and Chlna-ln which America will enjoy all
| the advantages which Great Britain, by her arms
| secured after an immense outlay OF blood aud rea
sure. This hardly fail TO be gratifying IN
| America. Every one Interested in the United
| States will be delighted AT the result. The com

| will, doubtless, from this time forward. be more
| direct and continuous, and the success which has
accompanied American diplomacy, must stimulate
our transatlantic neghbors TO fresh energy, and
necessarily. TO future achievements. The sub
stance Of this has been received, we ought to
premise, through the medium OF a private letter
