The following is an extract of n letter from Bordeaux, to the ed itor of the Boston Patriot, dated February 13, 1816. “We had a pretty scene here vhis week,—The schooner Kemp, Baltimore, having droped down the river to proceed to sea, the mate in the absence of the captain, thought he would hoist id bundle of signal colors they had on board, to dry them, It happened, that among these co lors was the old tri-colored flag ©frepub 1 ican andimperi?,l Fi ance. The whole city bordering on the river was immediately in move ment. Some said that Bonaparte had just arrived in an American schooner, and that ail was lost— tious somtiiesperdu. Others said it is an insult direct, and intend eel by the Americans, and that they ought to be hung, consul & all. The marine soldiers and ci ty guards all flew to the spot. The prefec* wrote to the consul. ‘The commissary of marine took tip the affair, and the governor f.ppoared disposed to make an examph* of the captain and mate. The captain a very worthy man, happened to be on shore, and on hearing of the affair, flew to the consul’s house for protection. The consul went to the authori ties, and calmed all parties by 1 • node r ft- ex an and greu t j forbearance. He lias a sorrvj time of it: indeed we have all I j suffered too much these six] months past in this mad dlty. A mart must have the patience of; Job, and the courage of a iion, to support the Continual insults which have been heaped upon\is by the vile English faction and their satelites in Bordeaux; and j yet the very Beiglishmen who nre\ at the head of this gang of wretch es, would be obliged to shut up their-counting houses , were it not for the consignments they are daily receiving from the United States 7. —Shame to our merchants who\ thus encourage and support them ! Our consul, in particular, is hard run by them, on account of the truths he told this nation in the book he published against the English government* iYMr. Ma nieur, fcf Nefw-Orleans* arrived here yesterday from Paris. Ij was at the con sul’s office when he j presented himself there. He sta ted that he was arrested on the j road from Paris, and carried be-] fore the mayor of the town, on ac-j count of wearing a cockade in hrs hat with the American eagle in the centre. That the mayor ex cused the measure, and said re ports were circulating in the coun try, that Bonaparte had landed in France, at the head offif ty thou sand Ameiicans! Y6u will hardly credit such ridiculous stories in the United States A priest in a village near this, in preaching to his hock, told them, that Bona parte was walking on the sea shore at St Helena with an um brella over his head, when the de-\ vil descended in a cloud of smoke,! and in exchange for his umbrella, gave him a pair of wings, with which he flew into the air, and di rected his course to the United States, the sink of all republican -j ism; that all the British fleet had sailed in search ot him; that it be-, hoved them to keep a good look, out, for he might yet one day turn- j hie on France. Can any thing; be more ridiculous than such a I dis course, except the credulity of] the peasants in believing it/ I “With all this nonsense, tSte ; thinking part of the population of this country look towards us with j great affection and favor, and be- j gin to detest the English most cor- j .dially* We shall, before long, i be cherished by the whole nation j Some of the most influential men • at Paris have already taken a high ’ tone in our favor. Complaints have been made at Paris against us, and against our consul here, and have been treated with con- Itetnpt by the minister. Libels! have been pointed and circulated’ through this town against the con-’ jsul, his family and the govern ment and people of the United | States. The authorities have ta-1 j ken the matter up very seriously,l ] and have assured the consul, that i j the authors when discovered shall Ibe severely punished. Instruct I tions have actually . been received by the authorities here to treat the Americans with more respect This looks well,and l state it with ! pleasure, bee mss I know it to be ; a fact* • n The re p h’rts eh Curating aii y in this city are unfavorable to the present government, but you must be “cautious how you give creditthe them. The country is in a dreadful state, but Ido not see much probability of a ‘change at present The Chambrt ties dcpiitees are going too far, and thereby do injury to the reval party. I recommend to your careful perUsal the debates in that ] body relating to me priests by I ‘which you will find that the ru- j ling party aim at nothing short of ] a colitre revolution . The best in formed men think there will be an ] explosion this spring, an event which all parties ought to dread, viewing the present state of France,without an army-—with out miliitary chiefs—without mo ney—and divided and distracted by the intrigues of their enemies, who are the enemies of the hu man race. The protestants are not yet without tears. In some of the departments, the royal Ca tholics treat them with great rig or. This government has for bid the circulation pf foreign jour nals. The police seize them where ever they can be found. 1. fear we .shall in future from this meafiure be deprived of Ameri can papers—against which, as well as the English gazettes, much is said, on account of the obser vations cdntained in both, of the Bourbons and their measures. Though We have no liberty 6f : the press iiere, these articles are ■ translated and circulated in man- ■ usaipt. —The effect they pro-; i duce among the patriots is aston-! lishing. The government had better admit the liberty of the •press, and the open publication 1 of these things, for then their’ ;friends could answer them. But’ while they are secretly distribu ted, they produce a Sensation be fore the police detects them— . when it is too late to counteract . their influence. ! It is said Austria is at variance ;with France, on account of their | not having given satisfaction for i their hanging and burning in ef i figy the empress, and her sen, the king of Rome, at some place near Vallenciennes.—Bavaria, it is I said, joins with Austria. Others j say that the former is at varience ■ with the latter, but it is thought I by some, that the difference is on- I ly apparent in order to cover their proceedings. This is most cer tain, that the prince Eugene is named duke of Bavaria, and gen eral in chief of the army. The party in this country in favor of Napoleon 2d, is gaining ground, ! as is also that of the dukt of Or • leans, who appears to be sup ‘ ported by the English. Even in this part of France, the Bourbons have lost much consideration, and ! ’ the British are now entirely de tested ; so much so, that the indi j vkluals of that nation dare not ap pear at the public places, j By a letter of a distinguished ! officer to a friend of mine, dated Paris, 24th of January, I And five marshals, one hundred and twen ty lieutenant-generals, one hun dred generals of brigade, and up [wards of two hundred superior -jfPirx: rs, have Veh eklkd. are the blessed effects of the am nesty / —The lower house ate oc cupied in rewarding, beside the clergy, all the rnyVlbts who likvc distinguished themselves in favof of the king and family. A storm’ is thought to be brewing in Italy, Hie? English it is said, are ing Montmatre, to keep the Far* isians /in awe, while they are sowing the seeds 6f civil war through their agents in the de partments. The provotal courts* those infernal engines of depo nkrh, are beginning tfleir opera* tions. of the Paris papers tells us that on the ceiling of the hall of the court in Paris, is rep resented the late judgment, with hell and ail its horrors I—The provot, in his address on opening thfe courr, says another Usurper is about to raise his head!^—The prisons throughout France tfre full of victims : since the commencement of the revolution was terror more depicted ill the countenances of Uie people, and. never during Napol on’s time, was thj public d’stress half so great from taxes, and every eresof imposition. In short we are in daily expectation of new scenes, which I t&sure )oti is not pleasing; for ah hough Our cout>t try men conduct themselves with much caution', still they are so ha ted by the royalists, that 1 fear in another revolution they would, suffer. The most shrlous charge of the royalists against us* is, that jive are ungrateful towards the | Bourbons, otherwise we would j rejoice in their tumult.
