FRIDAY, Apil. 14. Pajis pipers of Monday last huve reached town. Their, contents are warlike, though they do nu: decide the question of war. Their most interesting- feature is an harangue uhich Bonaparte addressee., to the troops that were reviewed on Sunday last in the square of the Carousel. Twenty regiments ot infamrv and cavalry were collected on the occasion. I., his speech Bonaparte affects to develope that policy he wishes to pur-ue at this juncture, which may be described HI a short sentence—u I do not m an to trouble myself about your affairs, and i must insist upon your not interfering in mine." Such is the substance of his declaration; and he • t:nea!ens the. Allies stoutly, if tht-y do not adopt his pacific views. To enforce his advice he an- nounces, in a tone ot bravado, that he will be abie to oppose two millions" of soldieis to the 600,000 men of the Allies. Another interesting feature oj I the harangue i? displayed in the information it eonvevs respecting the insurrection in the South • It is st.tted to-be universally'extinguished, except at Marseilles, and that before the expiration of the week, tranquillity will be re-establishe i in that city also. Bonaparte next alludes to an attempt to de-I liver up Perpignan and Btyonne ti-i tile which was frustrated hy the firmness of the Offi- cers who commanded in these places; and he fur- ther staves, that the Spaniards have subsequently declared-that they will take no part in the events passing in France. Accounts ha.d reached Paris from Vienna of the 29th ult. The Paris papers say the news of Bona- parte's arrival bad produced a great sensation. These papers confirm the hostile movement made by Murat, which was mentioned in the Ham- burgh papers last arrived. Accounts have been received from Normandy by a Gentleman who has arrived from that province, and who states, that a conflict nad arisen at Havre tie Grace between the friends of the Kmg-and the adherents of Napoleon, when ei-ghttor ten persons hd.d been killed in the affray. It is said, that there is a great difficulty in France to obnsiu horses suitable lor the cavalry. 1 he tew that are purchased for that purpose are paid for at a high rate.. ..Extract of a letter from an English Gentleman at Paris, (Ji-lr 1 April 4 :—" All is activity in the seve- ral departments of Government, but nothing of a warlike cast as it respects England: every thii) that. is like an improvement is instantly examinee), reported to the Emperor, and adopted.

C. Durham.] Many hundred letters, brought hy the Flanders and Dutch mails, have bceu delivered from the Post-office. There are several arrivals aiso from other parts of the Continent. The intelligence from these sources is highly satisfactory. In nearly every part of Germany public opinion is unaui- j mous on the necessity of immediate Uostilitieswith the USllrper of the French throne. The doubts which have been thrown out by some few in Eng- land on this subject, have excited no little surprise, as the peace and safety.-of every state were consi- dered exposed,to danger. Tb's conviction was in no places stronger than the Ilanse Towns, whose interests are peculiarly opposed to a state of war. Yet even in thtse cities, many private citizens had contributed mirth beyond their proportion in pro- curing the necessary arms and'equipments for the volunteers. At Bremen one merchant hud armed,, cloathed, and eqlllpped 150 riflemen. In Bavaria, there is supposed to be ahunt 30,000 troops ready to march, and wailing only till the llos-ians come up, who were expected the latter end ot this month. They were to be forwarded in carriages. The troops in the Wirtemberg States ;)re niso waiting for filial orders. A great number of Prussians and j Saxons had already passed in the neighbourhood of Liege anrl Aix la Cbap'elle, and also towards | Luxcrnuou rgh. The Duke of Wellington, whose activity is the thente ol great praise, is said to have already completely organised a force of 80 000 men. His head-quarters were expected to tie fixed at j Ghent. lie w-,ts iti (Ili-ect with the Prussian General, Kleist, whose head-quarters are stated from Antwerp to be established at JSamur, i and whose force is rated at 45 000 mell.

The Brussels and Dufxh papers COli tain a. ,ilecree issued by the Emperor of Austria which directs a loan of 50 miiiions ot florins to be opened his im- perial Majesty informing his subjects h) the pre-, amble, that at the moment when w e had reason to indulge in the confident .hope of letting our be- loved people enjoy in the full extent the blessings^; ofaperfnanou peace,secur(d<'yi))utna!dc<sions and political conventions, we are compelled "by the events that have lately ucèllrrhl,to make new ex- ertions that exceed the ordmary resonrces of our states." Fifteen thousand Prussians pissed through,! Maestricht on the 1st and 2d, and 50,000 were to cross the Rhine at Wesel last week. The private accounts received from-France, state 'I assei,a was at c that i\la.sbaIMasscna was at Marseill-cs :t W,a:i thought he was temporising, and would ultimately join the Usurper. A vast number of persons of various ranks and descriptions had been exiled. The property of Marshal Berthier and Gen. Clarke is confiscated. The intelligence from Italy affirms that Mnrat had entered the Papal states and taken possession of Rome, and that the Pope is arrived at Florence. It is rumoured that a gentleman connected with a great banking establishment, had an interview yesterday with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, when the latter signified that the expectations of the confederate PoLeiitatek, as- to subsidies, was much greater than was generally imagined, and tint nine millions sterling woulJbe rèquircd by them. It is said that a treaty offensive and defensive between this country and t'he Emperors of Austria and Russia, the Kings of Prussia, Bavaria, &c. has been received by Ministers from Vienna. It is a renewal of the treaty of Chatunont—and contains new stipulations of subsidy on our part, for a pre- cautionary armament against Bonapilrle. It is understood to go no further than a muiu-tl engage- ment to oppose his re-ascension to the throne of France; but not to interfere with, or diet.He 10 the French the form of government they shall chuse for theurselves, or the Sovereign (in case ol a mu- narchy) whom they may elect to reign over them. By this it is meant to separate the cause of Bona- parte from that of the French people, or at itast to limit their interference to the exclusion of Bona- parte. And that their views may be dearly and fully demonstrated to France and to Europe, the Congress is to be transferred to Frankfort, where it is to meet on the 80th iust. and frun whence a Declaration will be put forth recognizing the treaty of Paris, and in which it will be said," that the people of France are at. perfect liberty to judge f?ir themselves—-that their terrttory will be entire—their public institutions held sacred, and hostilities only to ensue in case they shall deter- mine to submit to the person who h is violated the engagements made with them, and whose re-ascension to the throne of France they regard asincompatabte with the security, iijflepen- deuce, and peace of Europe. This plan, it Is said, has been devised by M. Talleyrand, who is to attend the Congress, and who; from Ins knowledge of the French character, states that this preliminary proceeding is required to satisfy tlieir a'mour-propre, and. to gi>e ..strength to f hat most reasonable and honourable pariy in France, whoihaye been uniform .in'their distrust, of Bonaparte, and in their desh e of a dree Constitution under a limited Monarch--the f riends of retonn m the Constpdsnt Assembly.

The publication of the abdication of Maria Louisa is expected from day to day, but has nut yet taken place.

B. commanding'011 the coast of Louisiana. lfcIJd-qllarlC}"s,Islc Dunphlne, FehrlwryH, 181.5. MY LORD, —My dispatch dated January 2i?:.h, will have informed your Lordship ol the re-embark- ation of this force, which was completed OIl the 30th. It being agreed between Vice-Admiral Sir Alex- ander Cochrane and niyself that operations should he carried towards Mobie, it was decided that a force should be sent ag .inst Fort Bowyer, situated on the easteru point of the entrance of the bay, and it was considered a brigade would be sufficient for this object, with a respectable force uf artillery. I ordered the 2 1 brigade, for this service, together with sucb means in I he engineer and artillery de- partment, as the chief and commanding officer of the Royal Artillery mi^ht think expedient. The ier ot'the l'o remainder of the force had orders to disembark on Isle Dauphine, and encamp; and Major General Keane, whotn I alii truly happy to say has returned to htsduty, superintended this arrangement. On the 7th, ihe ships destined to move on that service s died under the command, of Captain Rif'ketts, of the Vengeur. At daylight the next IIHlI nilg the troops got into the boats, and six hundred men- were landed, under Lieut-Colonel Dubbing, ot the 44th, without opposition, who im- mediately- threw out the light companies, under Lieut. Benuet, of the 4th regimenf, t) cover the Linding of the brigade. Tile eIwfUy was not seen until about twelve hundred yards in front of their work: they gradually fell back, and un firing touk place, until the whole had retired into the fort, and our advttue had pushed on nearly to within three hundred yards. Every exertion was mule by the navy to land provisions, and the necessary equip- ment of a b itiering train and engineer stores. We broke ground oil the night of the 8th, and advanced a firing party to within one hundred yards of the tort during the night. Preparatory to commenc- ing, 1 summoned t he fort, allowing the coin:nandin;> officer half an hour for his decision upon such terms as were proposed. Finding he was inclined to con-i ler ihem, I prolonged the period at 1m request, and at thrt e o'clock, on the l<2th, the fort was given up to a British-guard, and British colours hoisted; the terms being signed by Major Smith, military secretary and Captain Ricketts, It.

[all: happy -to--say our loss has not been very great; and we are indebted for this, in a great "measure. to.the efficient means attached to this force. Had we been obliged to resort to any other mo le of attack, the fall tOtdd not have been looked lor under such favourable circumstances.. Two schooners with provisions and an inter- cepted Seller tell into our hands, taken by Captain Price, R. N. stationed in the bay. I cannot close this dispatch without naming to your Lordship a^ain, Lieut.-CoL Dickson, Royal Artillery, and IJurgoync, Royal Engineers, who displayed their usual-zeal and abilities,.

The. Prince of Eckmnhl has published all Address to the Military, calling upon all the sol- fliers to rally round tiif standards of Napoleon, wlvei her t h.e,.y have received limited or nntnnited furloughs, or their discharge. In other wor is, it I t I evidently shows the gr^it embarrassments to which ,i r I e' This Address is not the only proof of the extreme difficulties under which Bonaparte labours in recruiting his army the Moniteur of Saturday last contains Addresses froill Gamut, the Minister of the Inte- rior, and Fouche, the Minister of Police, cdlting in the most earnest terms on ihe oiffcers under ttieli-, respeclive administrations to co-operate in effecting the. re-establishment of the military fortR It is stated that the Grand Dnke Constantine commands the Russian advanced guard. It is also said tin.; Archduke Anthony is to tie Viceroy ofltaly. A Spanish artnv is advancing to the frontiers, Palatox commands on the side of Arragon. The French papers would give us to understand, that Mil rat has declared in favour of Bonaparte, and that a battle has taken pl ice between the Aus- trian van-guards and the Neapolitan army, in, which 5000 Austrian?'were .made prisoners. Cer- tain it is, that Murat's arwiy is in motion; that it has tai.cn possession uf Itome; and that the P^pe has ieit that city. 'There is some reason, however, to think, that the advance of Murat, had been mtde only as a measure of precaution till he should re- ceive the unqualified recognition of Congress.. An article from Vienna (already noticed) accordingly stttes, that Mnrat has not only received this recog- nition, but that Congress hds derlared in favour of his retaining the Marches, and tha-t a definitive alliance was immediately to be formed between him and the Allies. The French Funds, have experienced, within a few hours, a fall of 4 per cent.

« IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HUUSE OF LORDS. Monday, April 17. Ihe Larl of Liverpool moved an add.-ess 10 Ihe'Prince llegent, approving of the treaty of peacc concluded with America. Agreed to. HOUSE OF COMMONS. PROPEiTY TAX. Alondajs, April 17.—■Mr. Vansittart postponed the second reading of the Assessed luxes Bill nil Wednesday next; and gave notice, thai in a Committee of Wavs and Means 011 that day, he would call the attention of the House to the Property Tax, with a view to continue the same. Mr. FreeuKintie wished to know, whether the Chancellor of the Exchequer n'fant to propose-any alteration or mo- dification of the Properly Tax ? Mr. Vansittart said. it was not his intention to propose such alteration; but, of course, the subject wouid be opew to discussion. Mr. Horner'said, he did not understand whether the Right Hon. Getit. in postponing the Assessed Tates, meant to give them up or not Mr. V aiisiitart staled, tfi ;t the relinquishment of the Assessed 1 axes must depend on the decision of. Parliament with respect to the lenewal of the Property Tax. Mr. Whitbread wished to know, whether the renewal of tha Property Tax was to be pressed with regard to political events, and whether it was in the contemplation of Ministers to make it independent of peace or war? Mr. Vansitiart conceived that in either of the cases in- cludediu ihe Hon. Member's abemati.ve, the measure would be found expedient. It direct hostilities were Wot resorted to, it would be necessary to support a complete state of military preparation. The o. her orderti were then gone through and the House adjourned. luesdaj, April, Barharn moved for leave to bring in a Bill -for the better pieveniion of British subject# from aiding in any manner in ihe trade in slaves. He ex- patiated on the horrors of this traffic—congratulated t!»e friends of humanity on its having received its death-blow from what passed at the Congress; and the Decree of Bo- naparte and stated the fiillo viiig Io be the principal fea- tures of his Bill: first, to prevent the employment of Bri- tish capital, he would make it felony to employ it in that way, whether s» employed hy a subject or a fmeigner re- siding ill the United Kingdom Fie would prohibit the insurance of ships engaged in it, and would have a prohibi- tion against lending money on any security, in those coun- tries where the Slave Trade was not Jet abolished. He tht-n moved for leave to bring in a Bill to the effect he had stated. Mr. Sergeant Onslow, Mr. A Bro«n and Mr. Wilber- foree, spoke in favour of the motion; upon which it w. agreed to, and a Committee appo nted to bring in the Bill. AI,IEN ACT. Mr. Baihurst, in rising to move for leave to bring in a bill to make further provisions respecting Aliens, stated to be a necessary measure of pi ecauiion, as the Act now io torce h.td been passed at a time when Europe wris in a very different situation, aud whclt Ministers could contidelitÎy "look forward to a durable peace. The changes which had taken place, and the many Aliens flying to this country, made it necessary to stiengthen the arm of Government, by-giving it greater powers than it at present possessed. He proposed that it should continue in force for one year, and on this condition, he trusted, the measure would meet with the approbation of the House. What- ever objections had at times been urged to the formtr Alien Act, much public benefit had beeii derived from if, and-he. thought at the presl-nt crisis it would not be im- proper to arm the Government with those powers which had been entrusted to them before. Mr. Whitbread thought that an Alien Bili', from the fiiit which passed to the prtsent moment, was a blot on the Statute-b>x^k. There were sufficient powers already in the hands of Ministers to prevent mischief, and he therefore objected to any extensive powers being; added. lie thought titso that the Bill should be delayed till we were actually in a state of war. which he stilt hoped we should not be, and therefore objected again to the brino-iim iu 9f the Bill. a 06 jLord Castlereagh said, the question was, whether there wasanybkehhoodof danger which caifcd fur the Bii/. and it would, only he necessary to compare the advantages with the inconveniencies likely to result from the tueasuie. Under these circumstances he thought the House would not feel any constitutional jealous? ot siviue leave to brine in the Bill. b Leave was then given to b;ing in the FiB, which we, s) bought up, ie:11 n Hrsttiase, »u<i ofdered to be read 53C0U.4 IiiiiQ Qflr }4y,.aud tg D; {ir!t,M<.{.—Ad oa-)<:d.
