FROM FRANCE.
We have received the following
extract of a letter from Paris which
as its details are highly interest
, ing, and seem to throw light on the
’ causes and effects of the . late re
volution in France, we have thought
proper to lay before our readers.” It
j Will be found to realize in a great
! degree, our speculations ou this
subject—especialy as relates to the
adjustment of continen.al affairs.
As regards the rights and interests
of the United St ites, it is well khowa
that our fears have always predom
inated over our hopes of any good
resulting to us from the pacifica
tion of Guz.
mW-Y)RK June 16.
Extract of a letter from Parish received
by the French National brig Oliver.
4 ‘ You will have heard of the” won
derful changes which have .taken
place here—nor will your aston
ishment be diminished by knotting
the grand result has been, in
degree, the effect of.accident. _
Napoleon had made an attemto to
carry the position *t Bar sur Apbe.
which was'occupied by the main ar
my of the allies, in this attempt
he failed. His next endeavor Bus
to turn this position and attack tpeir
magazines—arid if they pursued, to
fall back on his fortified places—re
inforce his army with these garri
sons and then give another general
battle i Marshal Marmont, in’ the
mean time. covering and defend
ing Paris., He had marched near
ly a whole day in prosecution of
Jthis design. Some hesitation fol
lowed on their part, and more alarm,
when, as report says Alexander sug
gested an immediate march upon
Paris. ’ The idea Weis adopted and
executed—and. on the 30ih March,
a battle was fought which decided
the fate of the city and the war.
‘-Marmont commanded on or.e side
and Swartzenburg on the other.
‘The firing began ‘at four o’clock in
the moaning and ended about the
same hour in the afternoon, when
Marmont entered into a convention
to evacuate the city, and carry with
him his troops, baggage, artilleiy, j
&c. No capitulation was made for
the city, either by Marmont or oth
ers— but all possible care taken
to preserve it. ,/fhis battle Was
fought with great obstinacy on both
‘sides, and with great loss to the al
lies. as they were obliged to carry
many strong places by assault, it
is a most extraordinary fact, that
Bonaparte was for four days igno
rant of the movement of the allies
from Bar Sur Aube to Paris. This
lost time he endeavored to retriever
by forced marches, and had actually
reached Fouptainbleau when the al
lies had carried the capital. H Mar
mont had been able to hold Paris,
as he believed he was, for four days
Or even two, Bonaparte worild have
been upon the rear of the allies—
and no doubt, still Emperor. The i
events which followed the capture of
the city; made his continuance as ]
such impossible. On the 21st, the !
emperor of Russia, King of Prussia, ;
&c. entered Pans. The former rode j
direct to Talfeyrand’s Hotel; where
remains with his minister Count
ifesselrode: On the evening of the
same day Tajleyrand convened the
Senate* A act, as
called here, was drawn up, and a*
provisional government declared—
consisting of Talleyrand, Janecourt,
Mantesquieu,'and* Dalberg. At a
Subsequent session, Napoieon wus
deposed, on the ground of his hav
ing violated the constitution, and the
army and nation invited lb unite in
approving the act. Sc ( so on as
these acts of the Senate were made
known to the array, corps after cor. s
declared against the Emperor, un
til he was actually left without oth
er troops than the old guards, and
a few general officers. He then
abdicated in favor of the King of :
Rome his son—but the abdica
tion in that form was not accepted, j
He now negociatedior his own safei ;
ty and mamtainance—and m doing
s6, has become contemptible to all
parties.
The constitutional act, mentioned
above, of which the enclosed is a co
py, was adopted by the Senate, tic is
the basis of the restoration of the
Bourbons. If Louis’ accepts and ad
heres honestly and fuilj? all will 0e
well—that is all will be quiet. Une

by marshal Ney, and accepted the
invitation; Bonaparte has’ deman

tronomer to go with him into the isl

will have the romantic generosity*
to accompany him. He reads
looming ihe Paris newspapers, blames’
or approves the acts of the new
government, and if any thing dis
pleases him so much, breaks out into
a furioiis storm of passion. He says
that when be arrives in the island of
Elba, he intends to be very busy—
to write his own life—to dr vclope
