4t The Lords Commissioners ofthe
Admiralty, cannot announce to the
Fleet the termination of hostilities
with France, without expressing to
the petty officers, seamen and royal
marines of his. Majesty’s ships, the
high sense which their Lordships en

services during Hie late war. The
patience, perseverance and discipline
-the skill courage and devotion,
•with which the searqen and marines
have upheld the best interest, achiev

In the Gazette de France , we rea l
the following curious and important
paragraph “The delightful name
of peace is heard on all sidei, Europe
is awakened to the enjoyment of its
benefits. Negociatiobs have also bet n
opened-to bring about the reestab
lishment of a good understanding be
tween England and the U States
which has only betn disturbed by
the effects of the disordered system
adopted by Napoleoni It is known
that the Plemporentiaries of the
two powers are to meet at Gnuenburg
perhaps even they may negotiate in
London. We have learnt with plea*
sure, that the Chief of one of the first
tribunals in France, invited to his
house Lord Castlereagh, and Mr-
Crawford, the minister of the Uni
ted States, several persons of consid
eration, both French and English'}
were present. It was remarked that
the two ministers, on .seeing each o
therfor the first time, did not behave
with any distance of manner. The
toast of Universal Peace was propo
sed to them, and they accordingly
replied to it.”
London, May 3.
The arrangement with the ajlied
powers, which there*’ is to be
no interfer ehce by tfie sovereigns Os
the corttinen.l in the pending war
between Great Britain and America,
has, in the political circle*, attract
ed, much notice, and some are dis
! posed to attach much importance to
! it as implying an intention or de«”
termination ot ministers resolutely
to persevere in the contest* It is
we believe completely ascertained
that the British government will not
treat with the American Plenipoten
tiaries until the hostages* in the U.
States are set at liberty.
■ The detachments proceeding to
North America have been ordered
an extra supply of accoutrements, for
which the cdls. are to receive an in
demnification.
At the beginning of the last month
the Messenger bearing , dispute li
es to the American minister, Mr.
’ Adams arrived at Petersburg, and
that gentleman was preparing to
proceed to Gottenburg to undertake -
his new* functions as plenipotentiary
for the restoration of peace with
Great Britain.
It is understood that the island of
Martinique will be restored to
France, and that Tobago and M. Lu*
, cie will be ceded to Great Britain,
Sweden will, it is said, relinquish
on receiving some e
quivalenu , ‘ . j
From the London Courier of May 3.
It is said, that all the powers have
pledged themselves not to interfere
ip the dispute between this country
and America. France is to sub
scribe to this pledge Adieu there

some of the European powers to
take up their principle of free bot

r London, May 4.
It is noW said that the powers of
the Plenipotentiaries from the Uni
ted States are sufficiently extensive
to justify them in the removal of the
seat of negociation at Gottenburg to
the Hague or London, and that
Messrs. ‘Bayard and Gallatin have
been urgent with our Ministers, but
we believe fruitlessly, to allow such
remova 1 . ■
We understand that Loyd Gam
ble r, Win. Adam, m. p. and Mr.
Hamilton have been appointed com
missioners, and that they are invest
ed with full powers to I negotiate a
treaty with the United States. It is
said however that they have instruc
tions as to the settlement of the line
of boundary between the United
States and Canada, Which may make
it necessary for the American com
missioners to refer to their govern
ment for fresh instructions.

** In our opinion no peace with
America will be concluded so ear

departure of our ships from Russia.
Much, however, will depend on the
comprehensiveness of the instruc

will met soon by commissioners

From England,

it appears that two partus have
already arisen in Franqe. One par

Inflammatory pamphlets on both

v Departure of bonaparte.
.Bonaparte left thjs town yesterday
at 11 in the forenoon* followed by
fourteen carriages. His escort em
ployed sixty post horses. The four
commissioners of ,tbe allied powers,
who accompanied him* were JVf. Sou
warrow, the Prussian general Kol
here, an English general, and ano
ther general, supposed to be an Aus
trian one. Four officers of his house
hold, among whom , was his baker, i
formed part of h\s suite. Few of the
military departed witty him, and e*
ven those who did. will, it is said, j
leave him when he embarks. , ]
The following are nearly the j
words which he addressed, on setting
off, to the officers and subalterns of
the old guard, who were still with
him :
I bid you farewell. ~ During the
twenty years we have acted together >
I have been satisfied with you. I j
have always found you in the path I
of glory. / AH the powers of Europe I
have armed against me: apart of

Bonaparte now gdt into the barri
t ‘C. At that moment he could hot
aide his confusion, and he dropped
some tears. In going he called for
Constant, his first valet de Chambre ;
but the latter hadi concealed himself,
probably in order that he might not
have to follow Bonaparte, though he
had on the preceding day received
from him a present of 50,000 francs*
Bonaparte demanded 200 piebes of
cannon to fortify his isle, and an
English frigate to protect him from
thfc dangei 4 of the Corsairs. This
■'was refustdehim. He himself over
looked the package of his effects.—*-
He had demanded one hundred and
sixty waggons to carry them.
