Sire, was at eight hundred leagues from your capital, at
the head of your victorious arifies, altesipts were made to
disturb public order in this great capitals, by men who had
escaped froin prisons, in which your Imperial clemency
had saved them from a death yoersted by their past crimes
They have paid the penalty of their uew offences. —Happy
France, Sire, whose monarchical constitution places her
bey ond the reach of civil discord—of the bloody feuds to
which party gives birth—and of the herrible distractions
which revoluGions engender.— lhe Senate, first Council of
the Hmpcror, and whose authority ouly has existence when
the Monarch calls it forth, and puts it in movement, is es-
tablished for the conservation of that monarchy, and of the
hereditary succession to your throne, under our fourthdy-
nasty.—Irance and posterity will find it, under all circum.
stances, faithful to this sacred trust; and all its members
will bealways ready to die in defence of the palladium of
national security and prosperity,—In the commencement
of our ancient dynasties, Sire, the Monarch has been more
than once seen to ordain, thata solemn oath, by anticipati-
on, connects the French of all ranks with the heir of the
throne: and sometimes, when the age of the young Prince
permitted if, a crown was placed upon his head, as the
pledge of his future authority, and the emblem of the per-
petuity of his Government.—The afléction which the whole
nation feels for the King of Rome, proves, Sir, both the
View original tachment of the French to the blood of your Majsty,

sions, those civii agitations, aud those politics) revolue

(ions.—Sire, your Majesty has waved the French Kagles
over the tuwers of Moscow. The enemy could neither

creating desarts ow all his frontiers, carrying coullagre.

capital—the centre of his riches, and the growth of so

tactics of their savage ancestors, were ill-acquaint*d with
the hearth of your Majesty. 1t would have vo untarily
renounced the trophies which were to be purchased by so
much blood, and so many woes to humanity. ‘The ar.
dour with which we see arriying from all the departments
of the empire, under the colours of your Majesty, the
numerous soldiers called forth by the Senafus Consudium,
of last September, furnishes an exemple of. what) your
Majesty may expect from the zeal, patriotism, and war.

our enemics the vsrious portions of theContinent, and to
conquer an honorable and solid peace.—May your line
perial and Royal Majesty accept the tribute of the grati-
tude, love, and inviolable udelity of the Senate, and the
French people.”
His Majesty replied as follows :—
**Senatoss—Wiiat you heve said is very agreable to
me.—Ii have at heart ihe glory and power of France; but

its President, who thus concluded:

The London papers also contain dispatches from Lord
Cathcart, relative to those actions with the French armies
to which the 29th. Bulletin had reference ; but they give
avery diflerent statement to that of the enemy.
The intelligence that had reached us respecting Marquis
Wellington proves to be correct, for he was prosecuting
his journey to Cadiz, where it was expected he would ar-
rive about the 24th. December ; and in the mean time his
army was refitting, picparatory to those operations which
will be the result of his conference with the Spanish Govern.

ADMIRALTY OFFICE, Dec. 29.
Copy pf aletter from Capt. John Surman Carden,
laie\Commander of his Majesty’s ship Macedonian,
to John Wilson Croker, Esg., dated on board the
American ship United States, at sea, Oct. 28.
“Sir,—It is with the deepest regret I have to acquaint.
you, for the information of my Lords Commissioners of
the Admiralty, that his Majesty’s late ship Macedonian,
was captured on the 25th inst. by Ure United States’ shi;
United States, Commodore Decatur, Commander ; the de-
tails is as follows :—

orders, a sail was sech on the lee-beam, which I imme.
diately stood fer, and made her out to be a large frigate,
under American colours:‘at nine o'clock 1 closed with
her, and she commenced the action, which we returned ;
but from the cuemy keeping two points off the wind, 1
was not enabled io get as close to her as f could have
wished. After an hours action, the enemy backed and
came to the wind, and I was then enabled to bring *her to
close battle: in this situation LI soun found the enemy's
force too superior to expect success, unless some very for.
tunate chance occurred in our favour; and with this hope
T continued the battle to two hours and ten minutes, when,
having the mizen-top-mast shot away by the board, top-
masts shot away by the caps-main-yard shot in picces,
lower masts badly wounded, lower rigging all cut lo pieces,
a small portion only of the foresail left to the fore yard,
ali the guns of the quarter-deck and forecastle disabled
but two, and filled with wreck, two also on the maindeck
disabled, and several shot between wind aad walter, a ver
great proportion of the crew killed and wounded, and the
eneny comparatively in good order, who had wow shot
a-head, and wasabout to place himselfin a raking position,
without our being enabled to retuen the fire, being a per.
fect wreck, and 4n uuomanageable log ; l deemed prudent,
though a painful extremity, to surrender lis Majesty’s
ship ; nor was this dreadful alternative resorted to till every
hope of success was removed even beyond the reach of
chance, nor til!, Lb trust, their Lordships will be aware,
every cilort had been made against the caemy by myself,
my brave Officers, and men; nor should she have been
surrendered whilst aman had lived on board, had she been
manageable. | am sorry to say, our loss is very severe ;

Most important News.— Desertion of the Prussian Army
JSrom the French.— Bonaparte demands a fresh Levy
of 350,000 Men.
Bonaparte has at length broke the silence he had pre-
served since his 29th Bulletin with respect to aflairs in the
North, and he has burst upon us with impostant, aud to
us, glorious intelligence indeed,
The General in Chief of the Prussian army, d’ York,
has withdrawn his whole force from the French army, and
has concluded a convention with the Russians, by which
the Prussian troops are to remain neutral in Mastern Prus.
sia—And the orders he sent to the Prussian General Mas-
senbach, who was with Macdonald at Tilsit, with two bat.
teries, six battaiions and six squadrons of Prussian troops,
to leave the French and join him, have been obeyed. ——
<¢Massenbasch set off on the 3st ult.”? says Macdonald,
“‘without any orders, to repass the Niemen. He thus
abandons us before the enemy.’”’—Macdonald had evident.
ly taken some steps to detain the Prussian General and
disarm his troops. The General was aware of his inten.
tions, and began his march without loss of time. Macdo.
nald could not prevent or pursuchim. And thus, nearly
the whole of the 10th corps, which the last French papers
assured us was in the finest state, the only corps that had
not greatly suffered in the last campaign, has been detached
from the French service, and may in fact be considered as
part of the force destined to act against France.
General d’Y ork, in his letter to Macdonald, says, that
‘Cafter many painful marches it was not possible fur me to

rear; it was this that reta ded my junction with your kx.
cellency, and left me to choose between the alternative of
losing the greater part of my troops and all the materiel
which alone insured my subsistence, or saving the whole.”
—But other and nuvier motives wedare say impelled him.
Ife wished to set an example to the other Powers which
Bonaparte keeps ia subjection—to invite (hem to with.
draw from their slavery, and to break their felters upon
the head of their oppressor. He wished to teach a lesson
to Germany—to suund the alarm—to rekindle their ancient
leve of independence, and to arm them against a tyrauny
