On the 4th April Bonaparte reviewed the troops at Fontainbleau, and the mar- shals and generals (faring learnt ibe re volution which had taken place at Paris conferred together and spoke so loud that Napoleon hca'd them. He effect- ed however, not to listen, and the review being ended, Marshal Ney eoicred the palace with him, and followed him to his cabinet, lie asked him it he knew of the great revolution that bad happen ed at Paris. Bonaparte answered tha he knew nothing of it. Ney then hand- ed him the Paris newspapers. He seem ed to be reading them with attention in order to gain time lor an answer. Marshal Lefebvro entered, and said, •viih an animated accent, to the ci de- cant emperor—“ You are lost I you would not listen to the advice of any ol your old servants: the senate has pro- munced your destination.** These word# made so awful an impression up- jn the man who was accustomed to re- gard himself as above all laws, that he burst -into a flood of tears. Afte£ joint moments of leflection, he wrote an act f abdication in faver of his son. Af- terwards he proposed to march for Ita- ly with the the 20 000 men he had at Fontainbleau, and join Prince Eugene He repeated several times—** If I ar- rive, I am certain of being acknowledg- ed hv all Ttalv ** a<r*in reviewed his tioop-?, and his c ountenance was pole Sc altered He lemained only 8 «r 10 mi- nut? s upon parade, & having re-ente»cd the palace, sent for the Duke oi Reggio, Sc asked whether the troops would follow him ? 14 No sir l” answered Victor, You have abdicated.” To which Bo- naparte replied, 44 Yet—but upoo cer- tain conditions.” Victor replied—*4 The soldiers will not understand such subtle- ties. They believe that you can.no lon- ger command them.” Every thing is said, then, which can be said upon this project. Let us wait for news from Paris,” said Bonaparte. The marshals, who had been sent to Paris, returned and Ney entered the first. Have you succeeded ?” asked Bo- naparte. Partly, Sir,” answered Ney. 44 But not as othe Regency. Revolutions ne- I ver go backwards. This has taken its ! course ; it was too late ; the Senate w ll to-morrow acknowledge the Bourbons.” »« Where then, am I to live with my family ?’* «» Where your majesty pleases: in the island of Eib», for example—and with a pension of six millions *' Six million* ! that's a great deal, since I am nothing but a soldier I see I must resign myself.

We have been informed from o- ther sources of the arrival of large rein- forcements at Halifax. Captain Buntin, of the schr. Maria, of Ntwburyport, who wss captured on Sunday by a barge of the Nymph, end csrricd on board that frigate, states that t^e left the Nymph on Tuesday afternoon —that the frigates in the hay were on that day joined by the Bulwark 74 io a short passage from Halifax—and that be was told the Bulwark on the same day had sent into Portsmouth despatches td our government, and that 14 days would be allowed for an answer. He was tf-d farther, that the enemy were shortly to be joined by 4 ships of the line with pre- parations for attacking the towns on the coast, and that the frigates had orders to burn, aink and destroy every coaster which they could take At our latest datea from Halifax, the Bulwark was there. The officers further informed Capt. B. that 100 sail of transports had trrived at Halifax from England, having on board ibout 10,600 troops, and. that 60 sail more were shortly expected All these statements of the conversation of the British officers are confirmed by another person who was on board the Junon, and w ho came on shore at the same time.

* Peace in Europe will soon put an end to our labors, and peace am. ng its various nations will find the French in ;r*nquility a*, home.

• JYo more dtvioiom, your royal high- ness has sold; bo my lord, we shall not have them under a government which it«ell wills that all the public powers shall be wisely regulated, and the rights cf individuals sufficiently guaranteed.

Under such *u*pictt our government will revive, and under such a paternal administratibn exhausted France will recover her strength end happiness.

< Let Monsieur tutiit with kindnets the vow* and homage of the Council o

Prizes. The members which compose it have doubtless not long to serve the

King your august brother, in those

functions which war alone renders ne-

cessary ; but they esteem tbemselve*

happy in being yet invested with z o4m-

racter which permits them to deposit the expression of tbeir sentiments m the

bosom of a Prince who is a worthy de-

scendant of the great and good Henry Hi* royal highness replied, in sub-

stance,'and with a touching affabi fy it Xhat his august brother will without

doubt be disposed to keep account oj the services rendered by the council o;

Prizes, and that his majesty, rcho l

enjoy no happiness but in the happiness of all the French, would employ all his

means to assure the prosperity of France

and concur in all measures to consoli-

date the tranquility of Europe.”

throughout the nation all bless the re

turn of ihe august and legitimate dynas- ,, oi n e Burbons. who alone coulJ br;ng repose and happiness to this bcaulilui

kingdom. A devotedness so general has pene-

trated wrh sensibility Monsieur, the

brut her of the King, Lieut. Gen of the

Kingdom—My hist duty has been to

converse with his Royal Highness on the

interests of the army ; and what has oecn

h»v joy in finding in his expressions aii the effusions of a prince wi o desires to

be the father of his soldiers ! How live

ly an emotion have 1 cxpeiitnccd in re-

ceiving the assurance of his Royal Highness that he was only the iaithtul

interpreter of the wishes of the King his august brother !

The condition of the army 8c of each

of its members will then be constantly the object of the paternal solicitude of the government The glory with which tt has not ceased to cover itself in tb«

t curse of war so fertile in lliustriou* feats of arms, is regarded by the Bour- bons as a precious portion of the inhe-

ritance which restores to them the love ot the F;ench.

Officers and Soldier* give loose to a

confidence which will not be deceived, brh.-io before )ou the rewards and con-

sideration which ought to belong to the

glorious army of a Xing of France Ali

grades ot rat.is will be maintained : and

if, in li.c new organization destined to repair discrd'T, and to re-establish the principles of the military esta-

blishment, tome parts of it should^ be

suppressed ; the situation of the officers will not be picjudiccd.—They shall be

icpiaccd in existing corps, or pensions shall be assigned lucnt analogous to

their respective rank and services. Flow sweet is it to me to transmit to

my brave conuades the noble ideas and

promises ot the Prince Lieut* Gen. ol

Kingdom ? But whilst it has pleased him to announce the beuificcnce of cur

august King, 1 ought to guarantee that *1_II ■uiftiknui #liilia* illv UinvipnnS' OHU WII va

Paris, April 20.

On the 4th April Bonaparte reviewed the troops at Fontainbleau, and the mar-

shals and generals (faring learnt ibe re

volution which had taken place at Paris

conferred together and spoke so loud

that Napoleon hca'd them. He effect- ed however, not to listen, and the review

being ended, Marshal Ney eoicred the

palace with him, and followed him to

his cabinet, lie asked him it he knew

of the great revolution that bad happen ed at Paris. Bonaparte answered tha

he knew nothing of it. Ney then hand-

ed him the Paris newspapers. He seem

ed to be reading them with attention in order to gain time lor an answer.

Marshal Lefebvro entered, and said, •viih an animated accent, to the ci de-

cant emperor—“ You are lost I you would not listen to the advice of any ol

your old servants: the senate has pro- munced your destination.** These word# made so awful an impression up- jn the man who was accustomed to re-

gard himself as above all laws, that he

burst -into a flood of tears. Afte£ joint

moments of leflection, he wrote an act

f abdication in faver of his son. Af- terwards he proposed to march for Ita-

ly with the the 20 000 men he had at

Fontainbleau, and join Prince Eugene He repeated several times—** If I ar-

rive, I am certain of being acknowledg- ed hv all Ttalv ** H« a<r*in reviewed his

tioop-?, and his c ountenance was pole Sc

altered He lemained only 8 «r 10 mi-

nut? s upon parade, & having re-ente»cd the palace, sent for the Duke oi Reggio, Sc asked whether the troops would follow him ? 14 No sir l” answered Victor, “ You have abdicated.” To which Bo-

naparte replied, 44 Yet—but upoo cer-

tain conditions.” Victor replied—*4 The soldiers will not understand such subtle- ties. They believe that you can.no lon-

ger command them.” “ Every thing is said, then, which can

be said upon this project. Let us wait

for news from Paris,” said Bonaparte. The marshals, who had been sent to

Paris, returned and Ney entered the first.

“ Have you succeeded ?” asked Bo-

naparte. “ Partly, Sir,” answered Ney. 44 But

not as othe Regency. Revolutions ne-

I ver go backwards. This has taken its ! course ; it was too late ; the Senate w ll

to-morrow acknowledge the Bourbons.” »« Where then, am I to live with my

family ?’* «» Where your majesty pleases: in

the island of Eib», for example—and with a pension of six millions ”

*' Six million* ! that's a great deal, since I am nothing but a soldier I see

I must resign myself. I bid adieu to all my companions iu arras*” Hiving said this, he was silent

BOSTON, June 9. j

The following statement is handed us

by the collector of cur shipping news* We pretend not to say how much it is possible to divine of the intentions of the enemy, from the conversation of their officers in the presence of ou»* own peo- ple. We have been informed from o-

ther sources of the arrival of large rein- forcements at Halifax.

Captain Buntin, of the schr. Maria, of Ntwburyport, who wss captured on

Sunday by a barge of the Nymph, end csrricd on board that frigate, states that

t^e left the Nymph on Tuesday afternoon —that the frigates in the hay were on

that day joined by the Bulwark 74 io a

short passage from Halifax—and that be was told the Bulwark on the same day had sent into Portsmouth despatches td our government, and that 14 days would be allowed for an answer. He was tf-d farther, that the enemy were shortly to be joined by 4 ships of the line with pre- parations for attacking the towns on the coast, and that the frigates had orders to burn, aink and destroy every coaster which they could take At our latest datea from Halifax, the Bulwark was there.

The officers further informed Capt. B. that 100 sail of transports had trrived at Halifax from England, having on board ibout 10,600 troops, and. that 60 sail more were shortly expected All these statements of the conversation of the British officers are confirmed by another person who was on board the Junon, and w ho came on shore at the same time.
