Marshal Serrurier, [uncle to the French minister in this country] governor of the invalids and senator, concurred in the dethronement of Bonaparte. On the 4th April, Bonaparte reviewed the troops at Fontainbieau, and the marshals and generals having learnt the revolution which had ta ken place at Paris, copferaed togeth er* <nd spoke so loud that Napoleon heard them. He affected, however, not to listen, and the review being ended marshal Ncv entered the pa lace with him, anti folio wed him to his cabinet.’ He asked him if he knew of tho great revolution that hap pened at Paris ? Bonaparte answered that he knew nothing of it. Ney then handed him the Paris newspa pers. He seemed to be reading them with attention, in order to gain time for an answer. Marshal Lefe bre entered, and said with an hnima,;* ted accent, to the ci-devant emperor —“You are lost I you would not listen to the adviceofany of your old se- vants: the senate has pronounced your destination. ,r These words made so awful an impression upon the man who was accustomed to re gard himself as above all laws, that he burst into'a flood of tears. After some moments of reflection, he wrote an act of abdication in favor of his son. Afterwards he proposed to march for Italy with the 20 00 0 pven he had at Fontainbieau, and join p! mte Eugene, He repeated several times—“ If I arriva l am certain of being ackowledged by all Italy. a He - am reviewed his troops* and his countenance was ‘ pale and altered, lie remained only eight or ten min utes upon parade, and having re-en tered the place, sent for the duke of lfeggio. and asked whether the troops would follow him ? w No, Sir!” an»- Hvevtd Victor ; “ you have abdicated.** *1 o which Bonaparte replied, “ Yes—but upon certain conditions.’’ Victor, replied—“ The soidiers will not understand such subtleties.

Harrison, to the relief cf Fort Wayne. TSte f 0 > haring, retired at the dose of that cam paign. the Colonel repaired to his seat in Con&res , where he bestowed his usual uu.- r nu 1 attention on the subjects that came* un ier .kdiberanon, particularly on questions connected with the prosecution of the war, and on the deliberated question of remitting the m -rchams’ bouds Amidst these pursuits he found time however, to add to his stock of mihtOrv information.

He at this moment was about to eogage in a dangerous service, in a subordinate command, wh*ch might sub ject him to disagreeable responsibility and mortification, But his resolution was unalte rably taken, and he repaired to the field, which for a long time promised few laurels. This time however was wisely employed in discip lining his corps, the important advantages of which were most happily illustrated in the battle of the Thames. The official letter of Gen. Harrison to the Secretary of War has made known hoy honorable a part the regi ment sustained in that conflict. The regulars of the enemy were vanquished at an single though a desperate and hazardous charge When the routed line of their sayage allies was about to be rallied for anew conflict by their leader Tecumseh, Col. Johnston seeing the necessity of a bold and instant onset, re paired t o the spot where this force was assem bling With a daring band of followers. Ad vancing, they received a most destructive fire from them, which deprived Col. Johnston of his friend, the intrepid and venerable Colonel Wheatly, who fell by his side. After the fire but one man remained on horseback near the Colonel. This man‘escaped this imminent exposure unhurt. The Colonel himself was pierced with four bullets. At this instant he saw tlie savage chief (Tecumseh as since ap pears) presented his rifle, at his breast at not more than 12 yards distance. With a resolu tion, rare in so great peril, he faced his horse upon him and received the ball, by this change iof posture, in his left hand The savage | drew his tomahawk and the Colonel at » tempted to spur his horse to meet him. He \ wore a spur only on his left foot, and having received three gun shot wounds on this side ihe wasunable to use it His horse too pierc -1 ed with many wounds, advanced slowly upon his adversary. In these moments of danger he, with heroic presence of mind, preserved \ his right arm from exposure, by keeping it close to his side. In that hand he carried a weH pbarged pistol. Thfreyes of his antago- fixed upon him with the fiercest in tent,his hand in act to throw his .deadljr weapon at five yards distance. For a savage shrunk \yith terror at this ’» unexpected danger, and in that moment the . Colonel lodged its contents in his bosom He felH, and his warriors gave contest instaifcly. Col. Johnston now retired within hisluae; for in this moment of peril, he had been jp advance, faint with the loss of blood, which streamed -from five wounds. The horse .he rode expired, pierced with fifteen bullets, and his coat Was literally torn to tat ters by the balls of the enemy, j “ During the return of the army the Colonel was exposed to an inclement and stormy sky, in an open boat for four days, descending to Portage in the state of Ohio. His uncom fortable situation and the torture arising from his inflamed wounds was such as truly to put a hero’s soul to trial. On landing, however, painful as his case was, he resolved to prose cute his journey home without delay. By i this Step he hazarded little less than in the i bsfcttle, though happily he eflfecredit without material’ On hisjoilrney he had the gratification to be every where received with the utmost kindness and attention It was a controversy among his fellow citizens who j should give fealty and comfort to him as he passed On the 12rh of November he reach ed his residence, where fie received that wel come from parents and friends chat is the re.

He j started under much debility of body, but he j continued to acquire strength during his j journey, which he performed in 17 days.-—— j \s he passed along, wherever he was known, j hfe was rewatded as became the brave. Ar j rived at the capi>al of the Union, not the gal | Jant and fortunate Perry was hailed with ■ more flattering approbation or more marked distinction. The naval hero had achieved the wreath of triumph without a wound, though he passed through perils* that made the event little less than a miracle, but the military commander equally successful in vanqujshing his country’s enemies, bore on his Mutilated frame the honorable testimonials of the migh ty dangers through which he had passed to victory. By a resolution and presence of mind never surpassed, he slew his ferocious adversary hand to hand, while the latter had greatly the advantage in weapon. His valo rous deeds reflected not more lustre on his character than did the modesty with which he sustained his country’s applause. In this the two Illustrious competitors “for fame were equ&l. That constancy of soul which bore them through- doubtful battle, was equally conspicuous under the well-earned praise bes towed upon them by their grateful country men. Os the five wounds received by Col. Johnston four were severe and dangerous.— He urvives, a monument of the wondrous I goodness of a Guardian Providence.

This afternoon the most illustrious arch bishop entered this city, and was received by the people of Caraccas with the most joyful acclamations. This illustrious pastor wit nessed in the city of Valencia (where he was when vigorously defended) the most horrid and sacrilegious deeds perpetrated by the banditti of the west, led on by Cebakos, Cal zado and other Spaniards. He has seen the \ tabernacle and other sacred vases taken out ; \ of the filthy places, and knows also that a * woman has been violated and murdered with in the church of God; he is finally shocked at the irreligion , and- sacrilegious attempts of our ferocious enemies, who profane and set fire to the churches wherein we have received the sacred religion of our fathers, a religion which we respect, and for which we would sacrifice out lives. The illustrious archbish op has declared the most lively satisfaction in finding himself among a religious and Chris’ lun people, who love his virtues, and *the zeal and interest manifested by him in the salvation of the country.

Head Quarters at Valencia, April IS, 1814. Translated for the New Tark Evening Post • Paris, April 7. All Paris have h.-en struck with horror by reading in'the Journals, that Bonaparte had given orde- s on the 30rh,of March xo explode the powder magazine of Grenelle ; this mag.’ azine contained 240,000 pounds of powder, 50,000 infantry cartridges,2s,ooo cannon cart ridges, with 3000 ball shells loaded and a great quantity of rockets Those who remember what happened in 1704, the explosion of the magazine in the plain of GreneUe, when there was only 30,000 lbs of powder, can easily re dal to their minds the frightful disaster which would havd resulted from the explosion of a magazine of one hundred times the quantity. The greatest part of the capital would have been entirely ruined, and it was without doubc this last shock, which they mehaced us with some time since, and which would have been felt by present and future generations This plot was so atrocious and contrary to human ity that many persons could not credit it. Not ro leave any doubts on the subject, how ever, we shall transcribe a letter which has been addressed to us by the officer who had the charge of the magazine itself His majes ty the Emperor Alexander, has been so much pleased with the noble conduct of this, brave officer, that he has expressed a wish to make him his acknowledgements ip person, and to recompense him for the inestimable set vice which he has rendered the capital, promising to honor him with the decoration of the order of St Ann, of the second class. Here follows t he letter 6f M._ De Lescourt. Pan's April 5, 18 ‘4. “ My dear Sir—“ I have communioated to some friends only the good fortune which I have experienced in preventing a horrid catas trophe from befalling the city of Paris From those friends you probably have before this time learnt the fact. A simple act of duty ought perhaps to have remained unknown j but since you have given it publicity, I beg you will receive from me the details, and publish them in your ne^kt. ** I was engaged the of the attack upon Paris in assembling at the field of Mars the horses necessary to carry off the artillery. About nine o’clock in the evening a colonel on horseback arrived near the gates of St. Domt* nick, where I then was Stationed, asked to speak with the directory general of artillery. I presented myself. -Sir said he to me, is the magazine of Grenelle removed ? No, I answer ed) nor can it be done. Then, replied he “ *we must blow it up immediatelyP At these words I shuddered without reflecting that I need not,be alarmed since the order did not come from proper authority. Will you hesitate sir, said he to me ? After a moment’s reflection I recollected myself, and fearing that he might give a similar order to other per sons in and about the magazine, I replied that 1 should set about the business immediately. He disappeared. Master of this terrible se cret I kept it in my ojvh breast. But knowing that the minister of war, and the genera! in chief of the artillery had quirted Paris some hours, I waqconfident the order could not have originated with them, and determined not to regard it.
