Bonaparte, though sick, reads eve
wy day the PaVis papers. His hand
tre nbles while he reads them, his
unsteady eye rapidly funs over them.
He seems to look for the extravagant
and rediculous praises, with which
they did not cease to load him. Alas
be finds there only tardy and painful
Ruths. His physical arid moral de
jection shows with what anxiety he
supports the burthen, and how impa
tient he is under it.
Sometimes forgetting that he has
acted his part, and that he haS ceased
to be the hero, par excellence y he flies
into a passion, and threatens with
} «he height of his anger, the audaci
ous wretches who dare to speak to
him so disrespectfully.
Then coming to himself and recol
feciing that he is no longer the re
doubtable Napoleon, he exclaims m
agony, “If I had been told three
F;ars ago, an hundredth part of wnat
hear now, I should be still upon
the throne.” v \'~

Extract of a letter fronT Commodore

dated Patuxent St. Leonard's Creek,
fjuns 9/6,1814.
a “ Since mine of the 3d and 4th
enemy has been reinfor
ced with a Razee and a sloop of
war brig i> I then moved up to the
; mouth of this creek. At SA. M.
I yesterday we perceived one ship,
a brig, tWoschoonprs.and 15 barges
coming up the Patuxent, the wind
at East ; l got the flotilla under
way and moved up the creek about
two miles and moored ih line abreast
across the channel and prepared
for action. At 8 A. M. the enemy s
barges came up the creek ; the ship
&c. anchored at the mouth of the
creek ; a Rocket barge was advan
ced upon us ; we fired several shot
to try the distance which fell short.
I got my barges (13 in
under way, leaving the Scorpion
and gun boats at anchor, and row
ed down them, when they
fled from tneir por
tion behind a point and sailed and
rowed off with all their means.—
We pursued them until near the
shipping—fired several shot among
them, when we returned to our
moorings. In the afternoon they
came up again—again threw rock
ets and were again pursued out of
the creek. The militia under Co
lonel Taney are on the alert. I am

Extract of a letter from Joshua Bar
ney, Esq . commanding the U~ States
flotilla in the Chesapeake , to the Se»
cretary of the Navy y dated St. Leon
ard's Creek , Jvne 13, 1814.
“ I had the Honor of addressing
you on the 11th inst. giving a short
detail of our action with the enemy
on the «Oth. By information, they
suffered much. The large schoon
er was nearly destroyed, having se
veral shot though her at the water’s
edge ; her deck torn up, gun dis
mounted, and mainmast nearly cut
>ff about half way up, and rendered
unserviceable. She was otherwise
much cut, they ran her ashore to
prevent her sinking. The Commo
dore’s boat was cut in two ; a snot
went through the rocket boat; one
of the small schooners carrying two
32 pounders had a shot which raked
her tram aft, forward; the boatyge
nerally suffered, but I have not as
cet tamed what loss they sustained in
men.
■Yesterday a gentleman of this
county by the name of Patron, who
lives fit the mouth of the Xreek,
came up, and said that himself and
brother had been taken and carried
on board. That he had been landed
from the,Commodore, to inform-the
inhabitants that if (hey remained at
nome quietly, they should*,not be
molested, but if on landing he found
tntjir house* deserted he would buru
uiem all, as he had dope ‘he house
of a Mr. Patterson, and the barn of
Mr. Skinner four parser.^—s A i ur
‘lay and yesterday the enemy wer •
1 employed on the Patuxent river* in
if)ding on the banks to plunder
>»ock, &c. it was on oatuiday even
i *iK they burnt the property of M
Patierson and Skinner. Mr. R*
ron informs me that Commode,
Barrie of the Dragon always com
manded and is much disappointed a
nis defeats, for that he had wro e t -
Admiral Cockburn that if the .Adm
ral would send him a frigate and
brig he would most assuredly de
stroy the flotilla. The frigate is the
\casta, the brig the Jasseur They
left only 20*) men. and one smau
boat on board the Dragon, at tht
mouth of the Patuxent, so that there
must have been in the affair on Fri
day up wards of 800 men ! they came
with a band of music playing.’*

©nr columns of to-aay will be found to con
tain some further interesting details of Euro
pean news, which still go to confirm and ej«-
cida e the facts, already communicated, pf
the dethronement of Bonaparte, and the res*
toration of he Bourbons,
In all this England has taken a conspicuous
part. She has aided the cause of the Allies,
or of the Bourbons, with her counsel, her
men, and her money She has done’this
with much zeal and energy ; and she has
*een he> endeavors crow-ied with the most
astonishing success. * The subjugation of 80.
naparte. & be restoration of the former Uy
na&T >’ of Tranee, have been as thoiough and
C mplete as she could have wished; fid have
been ultima r el> effected more instantaneously
and with much less difficulty, than she could
have calculated on The triumph of her pians
has been unexampled. It is natural to expect
tha', now, flushed as she is with success,
she will rise in her terms with America
It may, however, be otherwise In her late
success, she has been assisted, or rather the
of her wishes has b4n effected by
the combined moral and physical force of
the Allied Powers Their interest induced
them to combine with England to reduce the
gigantic power, which threatened the liber,
ties of Europe Bur that effected, the* may
nor be without motives to unite with us, in
attempting to restrain a naval power no less
enormous and oppressive , Such a co-opera
tion of the Allied Sovereigns at the Con
gress soon to be held a= Paris, may perhaps
make it the interest of Great Britain, to low
er her terms, so far, at least, as to admit of
an honorable peace with this country This,
however, is merely problematical We pre.
tend not to be able to fore»tl what results
and consequences will arise, from the various
political principles, opinions, and interests,
? embraced and felt by those who wil compose
j* that Congress. *.** ,
I Should the war continue, it will doubt
l le ss, be prosecuted bv the enemy, with more
vigor—with more destructive energv than
heretofore Our government will an icipate
this circumstance, and prepare t*> meet it j
and the consideration will tend to annihilate
party animosities, and to unite our countrymen',
lirt a common cause for the common safety!
It ifc understood that Mr. Craw*
ford, our minister at Paris, has
written to our government very sa
tisfactory accounts of the attention -
shewn him, and of the disposition
manifested by the provisional go
vernment of France for the main
taining of the most friendly relati
ons between the two countries.
It also understood that the pro
visional government of France has
made Mr. Serurier the organ of si
milar communications to the De
partment of State. That he has an
nounced the change which has takeu
place, in the French government
and expressed a desire that the new
Sovereign might be recognized, and
that due respect might be shewn to
the flag, under which the national
vessel which brought the dispatches,
sailed. From what we have been a
ble to collect, the most satisfactory
answers have been given on those
points. ‘We are happy therefore to
state, that, so far from any ill conse
quences being likely to result fam
the late change in France, it is pro
; bable that the amicable relations be
tween that country and the U. States
will be improved.
1 he new sovereign had not arrived
on the 20th of April, the date of
despatches. He was however d<uiy *
expected, and there was much rea- 1
son to believe that he would confirm I
the assurances which had been given
by the provisional government, of
friendship for the U. States.
