THE MUSEUM. ; .1, ( From the Boston Evening Gazette. < LATEST FROM EUROPE. Bjr the arrival of the fast •ailios; brig , Orion, captain Smith, we are favored with ( the perusal of a file of Bordeaux papers as ( Vat* as the 17th of March, containing Pans dates to the ISth. UTANiLATIONS. One of the officer* of the detachment sent in pursuit of Berton, was upon the -point of taking him.on the 7th inst. at a solitary farm-house, where the fugitive, dis guised as a peasant, hud pawed the night. Berton had departed before day—he had no followers with him, and manifested the most lively uneasiness. The rebels in Tours, Saumer and An ger* have been dispersed without difficul ty; several have been arres ed, and the troops have manifested the most loyal dis position- The first chamber of the tribunal of the First Instance, pronounced judgment, on the 12th ult. in the case of Mens. Montho lon, Bertrand and Marchaml, against Mods. Lsfitte, the banker, by winch they recognized his Offer to deposit the sums re ceived by him from Napoleon Bonaparte, into the court; authorize him to make the deposit’at the expense and risk of all whom it may concern. They also declare that 4jouata Montbolon, Bertrand and Mar chaod, cannot for the present receive their demand, and amerce them in costs of suit. It is mentioned that the King of Eng land will visit Paris in the month of June next. There appears to have been large col lections of the people ol Paris, in different streets, hostile to the missions, which has nroduc**'! the necessity of ordering out ho mes of infantry and light cavalry to be sta tioned iu different positions. The acts of the populace have been confined to cries and hisses. A proclamation was issued by the prefect of police, dated tlte 12th March announcing thedisturbances occasioned by the mobs, the determination of the govern ment to disperse them, and requesting all good citizens to abstain from mingling in the crowd. The chamber of peers continued on the idiscussion of the bill regulating the public journals. The first and second articles have been adopted without discussion, and the third, alters long debate, has beer, a ?;recd to, 121 to 79. An amendment of the uurth article, proposing to limit to 5 years, ihe power given to government to re-estab lists the censorship during intervals be ■K tween the sessions, was negatived 119 to BPs?".. The same article was adopted after * some further dicusion. It was expected that the final vote would be taken the next day. An Augsburg article of the 7th of March, Kteutions the arrival of a courier from Vi enna, bringing letters confirming the ca tastrophe of the Pacha Janiua. In cut,se quence of some acts of violence of Ali to wards some of his men, they seizud upon his person, cut off his head and sent it to Uhurscliild Pacha. This commander ol the Ottoman forces immediately despatch ed some Tartars to Constantinople with the bloody trophy, to the Grand Seignior, where they arrived on the lJth Feb. anu where the event excited the moat extrava gant joy. Letters from BelgiJrie even go so far as to say that the presenOrizier, Selim Pacha, has uetermined with the army assembled in tlie environs of Constantinople, to take up his march for the banks of the Dinube. It"this should take place, no doubr would remain of the intention of commencing hos tilities against the Russians. A W arsaw article of the 19th Feb state the total nf tlte Russian army ready to take “the field exclusive of the corps stationed in Bossarubies, at 80 to 100,000 infantry, ;20 to 40,000 cavalry, 50 pieces of heavy lutd 80 to 100 pieces light artillery.— 10,000 men ut least are attached to tlie dif ferent. parks of artillery. Under date of the 20th Feb. from Stock holm, it is said, they write from St Peters burg, that the rivers are already free frotft ice—the navigation is re-opened. There u<e vessel* loaded for Copenhagen, Ameri ca, &c. They have had there an Italian winter; but they apprehend a bad harvest. STILL LATER FROM EUROPE. The slop Natcha**, Cspf. Cook, arrived 8t New-York, on the 22d insf. in SO day* ■from Greenock, bringing Greenock paper* to the 29th, and London to the 17th, five d-iys later than those received by the Her ald, at Boston. The following is the latest dale from Liverpool: LIVERPOOL, MARCH 16. The market has been rather inactive throughout the week and holders have beer, induced to submit to a decline of about i per lb. forthe middling qualities of Uplands- The Detneraras sold by public auction at a similar reduction. In other descriptions we scurcely perceive any alteration. Sales 6420 bales, imports 9429. GLASGOW, March 16. Cotton has been in limited demand thifc week—prices unaltered. Nothing of con equence doing in Tobacco or Ashes; new Rice 19s; Flakseed 60s. The navy five per cent, stock bill was pasted in the House of Lords, and has re seived Uie royal assent. The holders who have signified their dissent to the commu tation are few in number, and the amount of their stock animporUpt. It vaa said that Sir Benjamin Bloomfield, the favorite of the sovereign of England, has been dis graced, and was about to quit Carlton house. On the 16th, at London, 3pr eent. Consols were 795: do. for Acct. 79i. A letter from Paris says, the Chapels at night, resemble theatrical O. P. row in Lon don. When the missionaries begin to chaunt s psalm the congregation rise up, waving their hats, and interrupt the ser vice by singing songs, accompanied with every kind of noise. An article from Angers, states that the drawbridge of the castle was up every night, military dpty was performed as in time of war, and couriers passing. The greatest alarm prevailed at Paris.— The streets wen paraded by large parties, frying Vive la Charts, Vive la Nation,Vive Napoleon. Ireland still continued in commotion. It is reported that a secret marriage has taken place between the King of England, and a Princess of Deinnai k. SPAlN.—Accounts from Spain state that some trifling disorders bad broken out among the isbbleat Madrid. Riego was iu great favor with the King. RUSSIA—The Grand Dukes Nicholss and Michael, had arrived at Minsk, the head quarters of the Russian army. The Kmpeuir was expected. Great activity prevailed in ths different corps. PERSIA—The Schah of Persia is dead. His two sons besieging Bagdad, had raised the siege, and repaired to Persia, to con tend for the throne. From the Norfolk Herald, April 22. FROM CAPE HAITIEN. Capt. Conkling, who is a passenger on boaid tlte Good return, arrived in Hamp ton Roads from Cape Haytien, states, tbat on his passage in the Malvina fiom St. Ja godeCuba to cape llaytien, on the 7th Mi>rcii, in the Tortugas passage, lie was boarded by the U. S. sci.r Alligator, Capt. Stockton, out 7 days from Charleston, who stated that they had fell in with hut o e vessel since they had sailed. Capt. C. to fronted them that he had been chased the precceding night off Curnbe'Urd Harbor, by a piratical vessel of 100 or 120 tuna, but escaped by superior sailing.—On Capt. Stockton’s learning this ciicuiustace, he immediately sailed in pursuit of the pi rate, and toe next dy armed at Port-au Paix. About three days afterwards it was reported at the Cape, said to be on the au thority of Capt S. that he had captured the pirate, had put a prize crew on biard, and ordered her for the United States.— This latter intelligence, however, being on ly a report, Capt. Conkling doe* not touch for its correctness. Capl. Stiiichcomb. of the ijchr. Mercury, from Georgetown, on his outward passage to Cape Haytien, war boarded on the Ist of Aprii in the Caicos Passage, by a privateer schr. under the Patriot ti.ig, commanded by Capt. Northrop, another schr. at the name tune in sight, commanded by Capt. PeU—on capt S. making this circum stance known to capt. Kli*, to avoid tail ing in with them, the Good Return came through the Turks-bland passage. Saw no vessels at Turks-lsland, and a boat came oft'from the shore and ivpmted nothing new. Salt down to 14 cents per bi'Jiel. About the period that the difficulties oc curred in the Spanish part of St. Domingo, the French settlers,with s view of escaping the troubles which threatened them, with as many of their effects (among which they included their slaves) as possible, sought refuge on board nf several vessels, inclu ding some in Samana Bay composing part of a French squadron which were at anchor in the Siffcrent harbors ; to prevent the es cape of which the Haytien Government laid an embargo on all merchant vessels, which they continued until the 29th of March— and it was even continued on all vessels suspected of being really in the French interest, until the sth April, before it was generally raised : and the termina tion of it ultimately may be ascribed prob ably to the circutn-lance of the squ idron, before mentioned, having landed the slaves at Samana, and then sailed for tome un known destination. President Boyer was at the Cape on the 7th inst. with a part of his army, where it was expected he would remain three or four weeks.— I'he Haytien squadron was also there, consisting of a ship, a brig and a Schooner, (the latter formerly the Malvina of Baltimore,) which was to sail *>n the Bth for Port-au-Prince, with troops. M r . Armstrong, the American Commercial A gent, was also at the Cape, and would take a passage round to Port-au-Prince in the a bove mentioned government brier- It was the general beliefs’ the Cape that the troubles of the Island had blown over, and that quietness was about to be resto red.

So many persons, it is said, were never before present at a trotting match—indeed it was like a public race— For upwards of a mile there was a string of carriages of all descriptions along side nf the road; and numerous horsemen were stationed in the adjoining field. ‘lhe bay mare was trained by the owner, at Bed fort, and the chesnut by Jonathan Chalk ley, and each carrieil 11 stone. ‘lhe um pires were a Mr. Hill, for the bay, and Mr. Lawton, for the chesnut Betting 7to 4 on the fin mer, and 5 to 4 that the winner did the mile, (from the third to the fourth mile stone from Hampton) within three minutes. At the anxious moment for start ing (12 o’clock) all the spectators were on the alert to get a view of the American mare, more espicially on acount of the sec recy which had been observed resptec ting her. “It is stated, in order to keep the sportingworld in the dark, that she was brought by a circuitious route, of 800|miles, that an opinion might go forth that lite A-, mercsn mare would not be produced for this match. She is far from a sightly, at tractive animal, but on the contrary, rath er a rough looking creature, and her action cornea nearest tofthat of a scrambling one. than any thing else. She was not id the best condition neither.—On the office be ing given to start, ahe raised up her fore legs, as if to gallop ; but instantly collect ed herself on her hind quarters, as to that appearance of mistake ; yet, nevertheless, she was at the distance of 30 feet before a spc.md transpired.—The American had scarcely got a quarter of a mile, when, the rider of the other horse called out, that she had broken into a gallop. This cricum stance, it seems, is quite a matter of opin ion ; many spectators insist she had never broke. The rider of the American, how ever, obeyed the call ; and here was the great danger of losing the macth as it is well known to the trotting world that a horse cannot turn with any thing like safe ty at tlie rate sue then appeared going, of upwards of 20 miles an hour and must therefore drop into a speed of about 6 miles an hour, before the turn could be ef fected. The American mare was, however, turned round well,almost without a k*owl edge of what she was doing; indeed, it was fine to witness her sagacity in turning found on one leg like a pivot; wheo the rhesnut got up and was close at her heels. The American took the lead and won the match by about twenty yards; but towards *he latter part nf the race he speed” as not above 14 miles an hour, and site came in to a 1 ! appear mce dead beat, her rider whipping and flogging her along to reach the post. It is supposed, that had not the breaking occurred, the American mare would have accomplished ihe task within S minutes; —it was nevertheless won in three minutes and two seconds. A small trifle of Want was dropped upon the time,* s well as the match; and some of the “ best informed ” upon the subject are now ready to confess ti.eir error. The party on the side of the chesnut expr;* >ed diasotisfac tion at their rider, and offered to match a gain for 200 guineas a-*ule, and another race was expected but it was off again. The performance of the Boston horse was not remarkable,excepting ai allowance of 20 seconds be made for the diminished speed required to turn the auimsl roued, snd the delay occasioned hy that oiieurr stance. However, the feat seemed to astbj’. >sh the ** knowing nob*,” as w-!l a “jo tiyiaws.” The collection of the sp.. g world to witness the match, is On: ■'... , in technical language to li*s. > . •. y numerous in trotting horse- t : prime gigs, carrying their sir” is *..■! i > up sufferers, whoso white uppe tog- lion rioik-arid swe|) Benjamins, guv- ■ t'ut ensemble a feature ot finish. ra man knowing t oes and so much h>aiu had mb been collected for many a day, and there was scarcely a prti g-man present but what might be •*trusted alone.” [ltosfon.Bve.
