London , April 11. It is reported at Paris, that Tal leyrand, though in the number of thole exempted from the amneffy proclaimed at Lyons, has made his p ace with the Emperor. Talley rand would certainly be a valuable acquisition to the Government of Napoleon, as he is in poffefficm of all the notes, minutes, and secrets, of the Minilters at the Congress. The Duchess Dowager of Or leans, and the Duchess of Bourbon, remain at Paris, and Bonaparte has fettled on them pensions for life of 300,000 livers per annum ! Tntl Ridiculous. The high Allies have demanded from the French the delivering up of Bonaparte, and also a flrong guarantee, for the future mainte nance of peace and order. In case of refufal, they will march their whole force into France.— Spain and Portugal have engaged to fend 50,000 men into the field. Liverpool, April 2o. A Metz article fays, that Ruilia . had pledged herfelf to fend all the French'pfifoners to. the further ex- , tremity of her empire, never to be reftoreq or exchanged ;• those who choose to enter her service, will be lent to the armies of Caucafue ; others will be permitted to form Colonies and eftublifhments; and finally those who will do nothing are to be made flfives. The other powers pledge themselves to treat their prisoners with the severity and contempt which a natio r\th y it arro gates to Itself THE RIGHT ‘to cho'j'S masters delerves! [Damned) damned oppression.] e Translations from French papers to the 2’-■'//> of April, nectived at the of ice of the City Gazette. j Paris, April 21. ! The emperor went this evening to the theatre. Fhe play was Heft ar—The house was crowded Mis majesty entered his box during the fir it feene. It is impofiible to de feribe accurately the manner in which he was received, and how lively were the expressi ons of latis faftion displayed by the fpeclators at his presence I’he ..audience .infill ed that the feene ah eddy perform ed (hould be re-commenced. Du ring the performance, every part that bore any alluiion to’ prefen te vents was eagerly felzed. Loud and repeated acclamations greeted the numerous paflages, where the poet, in the high drawn heroic Hec tor, (peaks to eloquently of the honor of country and of the noble destiny of those who devote them selves to her defence whip threaten ed by dangers. This fine tragedy of Ile&or had often been honored by the presence of the emperor and received his generous approbation, but never had its representation produced an effect so remarkable and so conformant to what the au thor intended. The emperor retired at the con clusion of the sth ad. iHe accla mations at his departure were re newed. He deigned to answer these testimonies of public fatisiac tion in the moft affable manner. A merchant at Havre firmly per loaded that there would be no terruption to marine enterprize, has ordered one of his veftels bound for the colonies, Wlipfe failing had been flopped, to depart immediate ly for her destination. This'"order known to the inhabitants of Havre, had excited the moft agreeaßD fen • tit Ter.. Several merchants of different commercial cities in France have received advices from their corref p >ndt nrs in England, to continue their shipments to that country as heretofore,- with the assurance that the trade between the two coun tries would not experience the lead interruption. A French officer has arrived at Paris, bearer of defpatches from the king of Naples to the emperor. He was flopped at Turin, but was released by the authorities by reason of the news of the rapid maich of Joachim. An efcbrt of gens d’- artnes conducted him to the fron tiers of France, who repeatedly alli ed him on the road, why do not the French come ? we expert them. I’he minifler of the interior ought immediately to fugged to the emperor the establishment of schools for educating the poor. The lad number of the Augf burg Gazette received this day, announced that by the order of a certain power a filter of the empe ror has been arrested and confined in a fortrefs, and tha,t the mother of his majeflty is to experience the fame treatment. We beljeve that this journaliil is mifinfor.ned, bur if it indeed be true, we rec'olledl that the emperor permitted thtrduke of Angoufeme to leave France, and would aik, who is the mod,gene rous foverifigu, lie who sets at liber ty a prince with arms in his hands, or he who arrests a defencelefs fe male ? , . . Paris, April 23. A conference was held at Vien na the 4th and sth April, between the leaders of the allies—to form a general plan of the war. It was determined to undertake r.o effen five operation until everything is prepared and all are ready—not to give battle to the French when commanded by the Emperor, ex cepting when they are lure of be ing double the number opposed to them, in men of all deferiptions, particularly in- infantry. The Duke of Wellington has formed a plan of the campaign^ —for all the allies and for all the operations in gen eral-—even for Italy. He de termined however, before he left Vienna not to develbpe his plan until the allied armies are in a po fftbti.to cdmmence holliiities. i’he Prince; ofe Schwartzenburgh will hhve an extensive command upon the Rhine, The allies are suspicious of the Swiss. They are called at Vienna the partizans of Bonaparte. The allies are afraid of the French army, but they dread above all that the nation will rake part in the war; so much do they fear the people. The movements of the frontier departments will have great influence with them. They declare that in the campaign of France, the’ inhabitants alone, who ; were but on the point of rising kil ! led more of their field officers and aid-des-camps than they had loftin the four proceeding campaigns. Paris, April 2o. Marffijl Maffeha, duke of Rivoli, prince of Effing, lias arrived at Pa ris. - ‘ V Tfth Journal de la Meurthe con- i Tallies the following article : A letter from Sftralburg of the 13th April, mentions that it is reported that the powers affembied at tlie congress had, with a single excep tion, acknowledged the emperor Napoleon, upon coiiditia of fecu riog a maintenance to the Bour bons.” It was remarked, that on the re presentation of He&or at the The atre, at which the emperor was present, fome Englilh ladies appear ed with violet (tricolored)bo>jquets. Throughout Germany, it is for biden to (offer any Frenchman to re side. If he arrives to dinner , he must depart after it ; if he arrives in the evening he mud proceed on his journey the next morning. The Lausanne Gazette of the 18th fays, that it cannot but ap plaud the precaution of the empe ror of Aurtria, who would not con sent to the return of his daughter to France, before he knew that all was at peace. Gen. Bertrand has been appoint ed one of the marflials of the em pire. Marlhal Ney returned to Paris eight days ago, took the oath at the hands of the emperor on Wed nesday lad. So also did marftial Soglt, Lefebre and Serrurier. By a decree of the 17th, M. lieu tenant general Grouchy is appoint ed a marjhal cf France. Vienna , April 3. ! We have learnt that a courier of the emperor Napoleon, from Paris, had arrived so far as Buckerfdorf, one pod from this place, from whence he was obliged to return with his dispatches. Thole inea fures have appeared fevtre What ever the contents of the defpatches might have been, it appears that the government ought to have be come acquainted with them, in or der afterwards to takefuch mea sures as may be the moll expedient. We are allured that the treaty of Chaumont has been renewed for , twenty years. Each of the great 1 powers who (hall keCp on foot the itipulated forces (hall annually re ceive five millions derling from England. It is thus that sove reigns traffic with the blood of their fubje&s, whim they ought to pro tect. The Neapolitan army has not passed through Rome. It passed the city. There is no doubt that the tri umphant return of Napoleon into France, has already had a great in fluence upon the affairs of Germa ny. Martha! Berthier has arrived.— All the operations of the congvefs are covered with the tnoft impene trable veil—nothing escapes. The police has taken the tnoft vigorous rneafures in refpe& to all the ft rangers who are not attached to the familes of fome public minis ter. No Frenchman can quit Vi. enna without special authority. The emperor Alexander was go ing to Prague and is to return on the 19th. But we learn that the three monarch's will proceed di redly to the head quarters at Ulna, and from thence to Manheihn. Vienna, April 15. The army of Murat is edimated at 4*5,000 infantry and 10,000 ca valry. Before his departure he named his queen regent, and re duced alt the taxes one third, ex pediting probably to support his ar my by contributions from the e cl&fiaftic dates and Tuscany. The court of Vienna publilhed on the 14th of April, in German arid Italian, the statute erecting Lombardy and Venice into anew kingdom. All the Veneciaa and Lombard countries are, by'this act, forever united to the Austrian em pire, and constituted a kingom.—- The old iron crown is retained. The kingdom will be governed by a viceroy. Stockholm. —Some military pre parations are making in Swe den. Under date of the 10th s is an extract front 2n v addrefs of the crown prince, in which he fays I (hall wait with patience to afeertain whether there are any disposed to controvert our lawful title—any so mad as to believe that nations have lost all right of suffrage —and I fltali I employ the whole powers of my mind—all the courage that God has given me in defence of you: rights and my own Din ant, April 26. Hofliiities have begun between the Prussians and the French ; yes terday there was an affair at Falsni gnoul, 2 leagues from Givet, be tween the Prussian lancers and a French detachment ; the latter had \ 4 killed and 15 prisoners. After’ this affair the French returned to Givet. ■ ■ ‘■ • MM* ■ Brussels. April ll. A courier from Havanna who arrived to-day at one, has brought the moll important intelligence that Joachim Murat has been complete ly beaten out of Italy by the Auf* trian army under Gen Frimont. [This decides the movements of Mu rat. J Berlin, April 4. The following generals will, with the royal princes, command the Prussian army Blucher, Yorck, K lei ft, Bulow, Gueifman, Granenzein, and Borllell. Translated for the Mercantile Ad vertiser, Barcelona, March. 15. We had the day before yellerday a dreadful day. The annul of this city will preserve the horrible re membrance of it.—Early in the morning groups of ill looking men run through the streets uttering la vage yells. Very soon pillage and aflaffmations commenced. At 11, in pursuance of orders from the Government, the French females quitted the city, in order to leave; the Spanish territory. The pou-, lace mafl'acreed about 30 viftims.’ The number of houses pillaged is not yet known. Several Prielts are among the number aflaffmated.— The King’s Lieutenant, Colonel Vclrade, was poniarded, and was thus caught in the snare that he himfeif had laid, for it is impofiible not to perceive in this affair thefe cret hand of the Spanish govern ment. i Stockholm , Sweden , March 23. We have heard of the rapid maich of Napoleon upon Paris.* This event appears to us lake a mi racle. We acknowledge, in the interest- which we take in it, the force of the ties which, in spite of political circumstances, have not cealed to attach us to the French nation. The court has the fame impressions, and finds its interest in feeing that nation arise again, from which they have nothing to fear, and which is a necefiary guarantee for the powers of the second order. The prince royal (Benadotte) unv derftands whaj was to be the result of the system of legitimacy which was the hobby of the congress. We will not only, not meddle with the affairs of France, but if the powers make war on France, all our wifli es will be in her favor,
