NEW-YORK, October 24.
Our attentive correspondent at Phila
delphia, has put us in possession of
advices from Paris to the 6th of Sep
tember, received at that port by the
arrival of the ship Ocean, in 35 days
from Bordeaux. The intelligence
we have received is extremely inter
esting. The Emperor of Russia, it
seems, has refused to ratify the Trea
ty, which his minister D’Oubril, had
formed with the French government;
& Bonaparte,in consecjtience, has or
dered a new levy of eight thousand
men in the southern departments of
France. The British Ambassador,
Lord Lauderdale, was at Paris on the
6th of September. Whether the
negociations were going on at that
time, we cannnot sny ; but by verbal
intelligence from Bordeaux, as late as
the 11th of September, we learn that
Lord Lauderdale would certainly re
turn to England without a Treaty. It
is said that the differences have been
settled between Prussia and Sweden.
The following art extracts from the
latest French papers :
Paris, September 6.
1 lie treaty of Peace between France
and Russia, has not been ratified by the
Emperor Alexander. It would be diffi
tult to find an excuse or a plausible rea
son in the laws of public or private mor
tality, for this strange refusal. We see
no pretext, nor even any subterfuge, for
difaith. It cannot be alledged that the
Russian Plenipotentiary stepped be
yond his authority. Never were pow
ers more unlimited given, nor was there
ever u promise to ratify a Treaty more
formal or more positive. A constant
intelligence was remarked in the course
of the negociations between the Courts
of St. Petersburg!! and London, to ad
vance, delay, or break them off. The
moment when the Treaty was signed,
Mr. D’Oubril sent a courier publicly to
London, to inform the Russian ambas
sador of what had just taken place, but
this might be considered as the prema
ture notification of a Treaty, which the
Imperial word naturally held out as rat
ified. In these circumstances, Russia
made extraordinary levies ; England, it
was well known, was preparing expedi
tions ; but still upon the Imperial word,
it was naturally to believe that the Trea
ty would be ratified : and the Emperor
Napoleon, gave so far this testimony of
confidence to the good faith of the Em
peror of Russia, that the directly issued
orders for the cessation of all hostilities.
This generous precipitancy reminds us
of the sending back of the Russian pris
oners to Paul I. and to those sent back
to his son last campaign : this continua
tion of generosity forms a singular con
trast with the perseverance of hostile
sentiments which the Emperor of Rus
sia observes towards the Emperor of the
French, and would alone suffice to mark
the difference of their.causes.
The Emperor Alexander may open
ly Set forth the new grievances he has
against France. Faithfully to the prin
ciples of the Treaty of Presburgh, she
has only completed its execution. The
organization of the Gemanic Confedera
tion, was its inevitable consequence ; it
consecrated the independence of the
States which compose it, irrevocably re
gulated their regulations, and put them
in harmony with their interests. This
association had been long foreseen and
called for, as essential to the future re
pose of Europe. The communications
made in this respect between the Mem
bers of the Germanic Body, had com
menced several months prior to Mr.
D’Oubril’s mission to Paris. The fact
was made and known previous t» the
signature of the Treaty of Peace, and
France was in the same attitude; she '
fdone had a right to complain, that a
Russian division persisted in the occu
pation of a neutral division.
For want of plausible reasons, we
may seek for the secret motive of this
rupture—we shall find it, however, to
be no more dictated by the interest of
Russia, than it is by the laws of honor
and justice.
For these fifteen years past, a war
has been carried on against France,
which has indeed often changed its
name or its pretext; but the constant
aim of which has been to lower and
destroy the French power. However,
the obstacles set against her have only
served as steps to her elevation ; the
fate of arms has left no other bounds
k- her preponderance than her own mo
deration ; and such has been her for
tune, that the most obstinate of her
enemies saw peace as the only resource
and the sole means of stopping the i
flight she had taken. At the time of <
the organization of the New Ministry, i
there appeared under their auspices at <
laOnrlnn. a WVirLr. in *
nouhced perhaps less the djsire than
the necessity of making peace. Whilst
the author reproached the former Min
isters with their inconsistency, their
precipitation, their coalitions ill-formed
and ill-conducted, he considered peace
as the best means of one day attacking
France with success, of extinguishing
by degrees her military spirit, of ruin
ing her alliances, and repairing the loss
of her allies ; of concerting more feasi
ble designs, and of waiting for more
favorable occasions. The Morning
Chronicle of the 21st and 22d, follow
ing the same principles, does not fear
to affirm, that no power is now able to
attack the prosperity of France, and
advises her enemies to adjourn the re
sentment. Thus, according to the
most moderate writers, the English
government would never see any thing
in peace but a means of more advanta
geously making war. The negocia
lions they open would be snares ; the
olive branch they hold out, would be
poison. Under such circumstances,
with such enemies, France owes thanks
to him who, penetrating their designs,
has found means to secure himseit a
gainst them. But from the fatality ev
er attached to their plots, after reveal
ing their secrets, they have again be
trayed their cause. Their position is
not more favorable than at the end of
last war.
They have neither more skilful gen
erals, better exercised soldiers, nor bet
ter concerted designs. If they again
find allies on the continent, they devote
them to certain ruin. The Emperor
Napoleon has read their thoughts ; he
has known how to avail himself of the
advantages ol his victory; he has been
obliged to keep his military attitude;
and, happily, for the future tranquility
of Europe, those who wish oidy for tru
ces, those who waited for his sleep,
and can keep neither their word nor
their treaties, will find him still more
formidable than in the plains of Aus
terlitz.

PROCLAMATION.
Anxious to give proofs of modera
tion and affection to my fellow-citizens
and countrymen, we have resolved to
withdraw from the city of Coro the
small number of troops which we had
brought, in order to remove the fears,
who'll the fugitive commander of this
district, and other agents of the Span
ish government, have endeavored to
iniuse into the minds of the inoffensive
people, and particularly the women and
children. Ihe inhabitants may re-en
ter tranquilly their own respective dwel
fings, without fear or suspicion. With
this view we transfer our head quar
ters to the shore, from whence we can
equally afford the people of this coun
try, without the least inconvenience,
all the succor which they need.
The annexed letter, directed to the
court, and city council of this city, is a
Proof of our equitable intentions, and
that it is not in the cities, but in the
field, that we wish to fight with the op
pressors alone of the Columbian peo
ple. It this people wish for any fur
ther proofs of the perfidy and infamy
with which the Spanish governors con
duct themselves in all their transac
tions, let them pay a strict attention to
the preclamation recently published by
order of the captain general of Carac
cas, by which they offer considerable
sums of money to any one who would
boldly assassinate a citizen, who purely
and sincerely defends the rights of that
‘same people. Despicable and atroci
ous tyrants ! 1 bey have not even cou
rage enough to look their enemies in
the face.
We trust that those wise persons,
who have known and seen us act until
now, will open the eyes of the rest of
the citizens concerning their own res
pective interests, in order that, ap
proaching nearer to my person, vve
might mutually concert the interests
and felicity of our country, the only ob
ject of my wishes.

7o the Court and City Council of the ci
ty <f Coro.
Honorable gentlemen of the court
and common council.
This notification is directed to you,
in order to prevent, in time, the fatal
consequences of a useless resistance
tioni the civil and military authorities
of the city, that we may jointly, and as
sures to preserve the peace union and
happiness of our countrymen and
friends.
I make no doubt, but your prudence
and patriotism will induce you to enter
into a mutual accommodation, as use
ful as it will be honorable to both par
ties. Thus will the shedding of bloou,
and those disturbances which are the
unavoidable consequences of war, be
wholly prevented.
The Count De Rouvray, command
er in chief of the advanced posts of the
army, is authorized to confer with you
on this important business ; to take
possession of the city and prevent all
confusion or dispute with the civil and
ecclesiastical authorities which are to
remain in it, conformably to the inclos
ed proclamation.

PROCLAMATION
To the inhabitants of Aruba.
If the present circumstances compel
us to take possession of this isle by
force of arms, be assured, that your
persons, your property, and your tran
quility, shall be invioably protected.—
Obey your laws, respect your magis
trates, in whose hands we shall rest all
the civil authority; since we have al
ready ascertained by experience, that
they are persons of probity. It is not
our intention to make any alteration
whatever, in the government of the
country.
Let your commerce continue as be
fore, with the isle of Curracoa and oth
er neutrals, provided, it does not in any
way tend to injure this expedition
Our principal object is the indepen
i; dence of the whole Columbian Conti
-1 j nent, for the comfort of all its inhabit
j ants, and tor the refuge of the human
race. They alone, who are the agents
: or accomplices of a government of as
j sassins, are our enemies. The gov
ernor of Caraccas Vorconcelos, toge
-1 ther with the magistrates, have offered
I by a decree, 30,000 dollars, and hon
ors, to him who would assassinate a ci
tizen of the country, who through hon
orable means, defends the rights of his
countrymen and the glory of his coun
■ try; like the Prince of Orange, in Hol
-1 land; Washington in America; and
: Pelopidas, and Dion, in Greece. Let
those hypocrites tell us which of the
, divine or human laws authorize such a
1 decree? Do they wish to renew in
these times, and among the Ameri
cans, the cruelties and infamies of the
' government of Philip 11. in Holland,
1 which have disgraced forever, his name
• and the nation which permitted them.
