Mjrning Chronicle•’ _ Admiralty-Office* April 30, 1814. 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 tertain of their gallant and glorious 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 ed the noblest triumphs of tberoun fry* entitle them to the gratitude, not tttily of their niitive land, widen they bave preserved inviolate, but of the other nations of Europe, of whose Ultimate deliverance their successes maintained the hope, and accelerated the accomplishmer*'.. Their Lord* thips regret that the unjust and un provoked Aggression of the American GOVERNiIEW TANARUS, in declaring War Upon this country, after 41! the caus es of its original complaint had been ftmoviJi does not permit tht m to re duce the fleet at once to a peace es tablish trie nt ; but.as he question now issue iu this war is the maintain anee of those maritime rights, which are the sure sou id itioh of our naval glory, their Lordships look with con fidence to that p«rt of the fleet, which is may be still necessary to keep in com nission. for a continuance of that spirit of discipline an 1 gallantry, which has raised the British navy to Itsp esem ore- *m icnce l i red i cing the diet to \i ,itzr. necessary for the American war, the acumen and marines will had their Lqrflships attentive to the claims of their respective services. Tie duction will be made in the qrews of those ship* wh on it may be found expedient to pay off, and from them the petty officers and seamen Will be successively discharged, accor ding to tne length of their serviced; beg* hi vg in the first instance with all those who were in his M ijesty V service previous fid the 7th of M troll. 88 1 3, and nave since continued in it. W nen the re ! notion shall have been thus made, as to tie ships paid off, their Lordships will direct attention to those wnic i it itav oo found ne cessary to keep m c > a mssion, and as #)|i as the circumc mces of the wir will ad nit, will bring home and discharge all persons hiving the same standing and periods of service as those discharged from the* ships paid off, so that in a few months, the situation of individuals- will be equalized ; ail men of a certain peri ad of service will be at liberty to re turn home to their families ; and the number which it may be still neces sary to return, will be comp >sed of those who have bean the snortes time in the service. An arrangement in itself so just, cannot iut their lordships* opinion,.fail to give, uni versal satisfaction ; and they are in duced to mike this com minication to the fleet, because they tamk Mat the extern pi ary-good conduct of all the petty officers, sea n- i uoi .n t xines entitle them to every ifi deuce. and to this lull an 1 eniffl ex planation of their uordships inten tions. Their Lordships cano »t con clude without exprca-ong Men* hope that the valor his Majesty’s fleets said armies- will speedily oritig cue American contest to honorable to the British ha lie, safe for the British uuerfcst, and condu cive to the lasting repose of the civ ilized world. “ By command of thcirLdrdships. “J.

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.

It is said, that all the powers have pledged themselves not to interfere ip the dispute between this country and America.

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.

From England, April a general convention be tween the allied pbwers was signed at Paris, settling some of the bases of the intended pacification. We shall give the document at full length to-morrow.

The time for convening the Sen ate and Legislative body of F ranee i has been altered from June 10 to May 31. Louis XVIII left London, April 23 embarked at Dover the* next day, and arrived at Paris, May 3, accom panied by the duchess of Angoultme ■ and many other members of the Roy* al Family. He was received there and every other place which he 1 pas sed with demonstration* of joy. The white flag has been hoisted at Hamburg, and Devoust has a greed to surrender to the general of the allies/ Louis the 18th has refused to ac knowledge the constitution proposed by the French Senate, and has pub lished the basis of such an one as he will sanction. . it appears that two partus have already arisen in Franqe. One par ty is in favor of the New Constitu tion, another wishes for the restora tion of feudalism, priestcraft, inquisi tion, bastile— in short, the whole an cient system of fospotism and slavery. Inflammatory pamphlets on both sides were in rapid 0 circulation, some criminate the Senate others the Marshals. Some advising Louis to confide in the army, others in the Senate. FdNTAiNBLEAU April 21* 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.

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 my generals have betrayed their da- ; ty ; France herself has betrayed it. ** With your assistance and that of the brave men , who remained faithful to me, 1 have lev three years preserved France from civil war. v * t, Be faithful’ tp the new king whom France has chosen :—Be obe dient td your, commanders, and do not abandon’yom\ dear country which has suffered*.

I hen the staff, always accompani st by the lour commissioners of the 5 lied powers, formed a circle a iund him. 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.
