Paris to be takes—disgust, occasioned by in fractions which her chieftian bad made upon her rights, alienated him from her affection— he fell; and she received her old dynasty.— Unfit to rale, given to falsehood, add slaves of superstition, they began to subvert the few li berties her ferraer master had left—they, too, have been rejected, and their predecessor re called. He heads her armies, prepared to en counter the impending tempest. It is dark, in deed—the cloud* arc many, the wind violent, but who will assert that the nnweildy northern nations will face it with more safety than Prance. Poland, Saxony, the Netherlands, Italy and Ve nice remember with rapture their days of liber ty—they fondly retrac^their acts of valor until they see them amidst the clouds of antiquity, like flashes of lightning in n stormy night.— Comparing those days with the present, it will not be wonderful, if they make efforts for their liberty ; and who can stop the progress of valor and resolution led on by the dictates of genius t Neither the principles that we profess nor our own inclination induce us to advocate tli« j aggressions that Napoleon Bonaparte commit- I The following is an extract of a letter from ♦ed. previous to the cenvenUon ef Fontainblcan- I *»*>" Hinton, of Petersburg 1 !, to his friend Partiality or reverence for any being who ap- j ,n a e, « » ‘ tc „ A Jui , 7 pears la the habiliments of royalty we solemn- [ <• Dba* Fnir.jfD~Al leas* two-thirds of this ly disavow.

We have seen Caracas Gazettes to the er.d of May, which contain little that is new ; how ever, we extract from them the proclamation addressed by general Morillo to tbo inhabitants of the province, on his assuming the reins of government, which may furnish matter for re flection' to the emigrants from the Maine who may wish to return thither.

What can be expected (say the federalists) from that “ man of bloed,” the murderer of D’Enghien, the betrayer ef the Spanish prinoes, the lacker of Moscow, the oppressor of Germa ny and of Prnssia, the perjured wretch who broke the sompast of Fontainbleau? Only so much, wo answer, e* fear extorts from other ambitious crowned heads, who turn deaf ears to justice, nnless hacked by resolution and strength. This is eur opinion of Bonaparte.— And what, we ask, is to be looked, for from the jartilioners of Poland and Saxony, and the sub- verters of the Venetian republic, and the robbers of Danmark, and the despoilers of Ireland?—Are they not equally as culpable of subverting the independence of their neighbors, us the empe ror of France ? And have they not rendered the subjects of their rapine equally as miserable. lay _ John Walker, and destroyed the whale of tSol- lingbrook to Barrester’s, where Tucker kept bis factory and the whole of the north side of Back street, Maxell's Vendue Office, the Mar ket House, and Old street, as far as Read’s new house on the south side, and Simpson’s on the north ; the whole of Sycamore street, from Old to Clark’s corner, and extending to the house occupied by Love &.

The heaps of rubbish, and once in a while a small remnant of a human carcase, al most consumed by fire make it truly melancho ly to behold. Poor Lrrrcri—I do not suppose his loss was less than from 50,000 to 60,000 dollars—Brag & Jones about 20,000 dollars— and a number of others in proportion. I am so completely bewildered, J don’t know what I have said.” The late dreadful calamity, notwithstanding its extent, has not broken or even diminished the spirits of our people.

Pallas, the celebrated traveller, found in that remote wilderness, a tribe, the r« mains of a vast siumber carried thither on a scheme of this de scription. They were living in wretchedness ; and, no longer hoping to see their country, had only one request to make, tjiat their land wight not, as heretofore, be seized by the gov- -eriimcnt, as soon as they had brought it into iCultivation.

An imperial proclamation, dated if I Jgt.

Indeed we are informcl several families have already arrived at Puerto Cirello and La G 0 ayra from the island in which they had taken refuge; and had suffered uo molestation either on tbs part of the government oi of the individuals.— Many of the unfortunate fugitives who accom panied the retreating arm' of Bolivar to Cn- raana, have also ventured to their homes—vie speak of women ar.d chileren only. The Re counts they give of their sufferings on this dee per a'l march are truly distressing • hundreds perish through absolute falifue, hunger and ex posure to the inclemency ol the weather, and such as have escaped these are so wasted by disease, and so changed'as tearcely to be re cognized by their own family! Early in the month general Morillo set off by land for Puerto Cabello, accompanied by tho regiment of Victoria, and a great part of that of Fernando 7th. Before he left Caracas, how ever, he was obliged to have recourse to a forc ed loun. to provide for tie immediate exigen cies of the army. The sequestered estates too, it is said, are to be sold for that purpose. The loss of the treasury in the ship of war at Cocile will be total; experienced divers were procured but’t appears they were not able to get any thing of the least conrequence. A part of the wreck of this vessel was discovered a short time ago drifting on the northern coast of this island. General Morillo*i army preceded the march of the other troops. General Cavallos remain ed at Teniente Rey »» deputy captain general, whilst Cagigal goes home, carrying the regrets of the community with him. Provisions, owing to the increased consEmp- tion, Lad become very scarce and dear. Tie Fisheries.—It is probable that ths right of the U. States to fish on the banks of New foundland, will soon tiecoma a subject of dis cussion betweon our government and that of Great Britain. We learn that some of our fish ing vessels have been ordered off the banks by British government ships, that they have en forced tlieir orders and the vessels have return ed to our ports.—Demo.

The <-mployment of these men so long unfriendly to Bonaparte, proves the rscighi of the old rcfiubli cen party iit Prance, to concilate which more liberal constitution has been presented for uat-onal acceptance. Th* present goverment i3 a compromise hevwoen the aristocracy and the democracy «f France. The prefect of the northern departmet has made known to the snb prefects »nd mayors of this jurivdiction, that the resources of the government being beyond its wants, it was the emperor’s intention tn provide far a!l services without imporing any charges on his sukjepts. In the ftr greeter portion of departments in France, the patriotic paroxysm h-s prevented the wants of goverment, &c. The emperor by a decree of the 3d of May, hid reduced by more than one-third the quanti ties of supplies previously demanded. Ilis excellency the ministerol war had jo-.!placed at the disposal of the prefect, a sum of 2,000,000 francs, to, defray certain expenses, then enu merated. An article from the frontier* of Switaerland says, that Alexander was averse from opening the raaiDaign until all the allied troops should be in line; that therefore hostilities woutd probably not commence before the 1st of July, unless the emperor Napoleon should be unwil- ling tn wait till thi allies wire thoroughly pre- pir»d to attack him.
