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 \'~ Paais, April 16. / R is said that Bonaparte set off at i length on the 15th, at four in the afternoon, for the isle of Elba, i - ‘ Nuv-Tqrk, June 7.

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.

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.

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.
