__.r Napoleon, pre^nts an alarming
picture of the state of the public mind in Fra- ce.
It states that there existed a correspondence ,
tarried on, in concert with foreign agents>
throughout France, for the purpose of exciting
disaffection towards the government and bad
in several instances occasioned some acts of re-
bellies, especially in the departments of the
north and west; lint that nothing more was ne
ctary than to call forth the existing laws, and
determine their application. The emperor, in
General Lecouroe, command] _
of observation of Jura, has his bead-quarters
at Before. Franche-compte and Burgundy
■end to that place ndmerous battalions, to rein
force this corps of observation.
Prince Joseph transacted business on Sunday
with the emperdr.
It appears certain that there is at the present
moment an exchange of couriers between the
cabinet ef Vienna and that of the Thuilleries.
We are assured that the emperor has said to
* count Carnot, “ I hope stilt that peace tsill
not be interrupted "
that Tpesday there K*s a general; fhnruacM its.ad
vancefromtheinterior of Flanalr.Mhe French
frontier. The Prussians and Belgians, 'who
have hitherto been in the rear, were then advan
cing in the direction of Mans end Valenciennes,
with their trains of artillery, and in every res
pect eqoipped for instant service. It items-
probable, that while a sufficient force is left to
watch the Garrisons of Lisle and the other for
tresses in that quarter, the Duke of Wellington
will enter France between Mauherge and Valen
ciennes, while Marshal Blacker advances up
on the French corps at Meizeres and Sedan.
If Maaberge were taken, and the French dis
lodged from the latter places, the Allies might
turn, as they did last year, the triple lineof For
tresses ; and the armies of Wellington and Blu-
cher would remain in communication with each
other, notwithstanding their advances.
Brussels Papers of the 10th arrived last night,
bringing some material intelligence. It ap
pears certain, that the King of Prussia, who
empress Maria Louisa, was to set out from .
enna on the 26th of April, on' bis return to
France.
We are assured that the count de Lille has
finally withdrawn his confidence from M. M.
Blacas and d’Ambrmy, the two most incapable
ministers that ever existed.

“I am informed, M. Prefect, that in many
parts of the empire the secrecy of correspon

it is said, wishes to serve government—to seek

A Flanders’ mail arrived at a late hour last
night, with papers from Frankfort to the oth,
and Brussels to the 9lh ir.st. The duke of Wel
lington was at Brussels on the Slit, at which
date there was no appearance of a speedy com
mencement of hostilities. The public papers
and private letters abound with accounts of the
attachments of the departments of the north to
the Bourbons. The citizens of Lille are repre
sented as furious against Bonaparte, and the
zeal of the army in his cause has been succeed
ed by apathy and desertion. We hope that
this is not all delusion, and has some real exis
tence.

Truro, May 12—On the Hth ult. Murat »-
bandoned the” Panaro, and, continuing his re
treat in all haste, fell back to Bologna, which
he evacuated on the 17th, and the Austrians en
tered it on the same day. Two Austrian corps
debouched du his right and left Hanks, and made
him accelerate h'S retreat. There was a sharp
action at Castle Fracco. in which the Austrians
mc.de many prisoners. On the 16th. in the e-
vening, Marat had reached Imola. On the 17th,
he is said to have been at Faenza. and the Aus
trians were still purstiiil!: him His army is said
tobe in a stateof great dissatisfaction, complain

they began their march they were told it was to

An Austrian corns is said to have landed and
taken Rimini and Pesaro—whilst a strong
glish and Sicilian force has debarked near Na
ples. obliging Murat’s wife to fly from Naoles
to Ancona. It was even reported onr troops
had entered Naples, and that Murat had been
made nrisoner.
Whilst the main Aus'rian army w-.s pursuing
Murat, Gen. Nugent drove Pignattelli before
him and entered Florence on the 15th, amidst
the acclamations of the people.
In a letter from the Netherlands it is said, that
from the moment the troops of the allies en
ter France, there is to be no regular commissari
at to issue orders of payment en British agents,
or to draw bills of exchange on the British trea
sury ; but clothing, provisions, and every article
of necessity and convenience is to be levied in
the way of contributions on the cities, towns
and villages of the invaded territory; and thus
on the enemy is to be retaliated his own oppres
sive svstera of exactions, and the expences of
the war will be, by this expedient, largely dimi
nished. Some indulgence, however, is intended
to be shewn to those places in France on which
contributions are levied, when loyalty shall be
manifested to the legitimate Sovereign, and
ready obedience is paid to the orders of the com
minders. In such eases, a sort of payment is to
be made to a given extent, in the shape of bills
drawn by Louis, and countersigned by his minis
ter of finance, which are to be made payable at
the public treasury of Paris. 5 *
Accounts of insurrections, principally among
the conscripts, in the cities, and of desertions
from thearraies, are received from various quar
ters. An explosion at Peris is talked of in the
Dutch papers wi’h increasing confidence : the
reign of the Jacobins and Terrorists appear on
the eve of commencing. At Havre, Lisle and
Rouen, the disturbances have been serious, and
several lives have been lost. La Vendee is also
said to be in a state of ferment.
May 13.—French papers of the 6th inst
have arrived, and with them several private

Bonaparte would nominate a regency before he

Valenciennes, Conde, Quesnio. Mauberge. and
Avesnes, in a state of siege : and that the Mam-
lakes, were to be re-organized ! Private let
ters from Paris state, that Bonaparte had order
ed all the cavalry there to proceed to the fron
tiers with all possible speed. It was supposed
at Paris that he would immediately attempt a
dash into the Netherlands.
There was a considerable sensation produced
in London on Wednesday bv the accounts re
ceived at Lloyd’s of the capture of two French
vessels loaded with stores, proceeding from
Breast to Dunkirk ; they were detained by a
sloop of war, and (it was said in the city) in
consequence of orders from government.
A declaration of war against France, on the
part of Great-Britain, was expected to he pro
