FROM FRANCE-DIRECT.
Extract of a letter, dated Newport, January
19, 1814,
“This morning, arrived at this port, the
schr. wiLriax, captain RICHARDS, from
France, she sailed from Nantz the 25th
of November. Capt. Richards reports,
that Bonaparte arrived at Paris the 15th
of November and left it the 20th. During
his short stay at Paris, the conservative
Sehate requested him to propose to the al-
lies an honorable peace~—this atlvice he
peremptorily rejected, and ordered out
300,000 conscripts, cluding the gx--
EMPTS, 28 they are called” in France, in
conscquence of their having served a num.
ber of years in the army.
Mr. CRAWFORD, our minister, was res
ceived and acknowledged by the emperor,
with sentiments of the sincerest joy, & with
distinguished honors. :
The French army had crossed the Rhine
and was waiting a ceinforcement. No battle
of conseqhience had been fought since that
oi the defection of the Saxens, on the 17th
of October. France, in that battle, lost se-
veral of her most distinguished mar-
shals.
‘Capt. Richards heard nothing of the vic.
tory said tv have been gained by admiral
Young, nor did he hear of the French fleet
sailing. Twenty one French frigates,
were at sea, and two came out of Nantz at
the same moment with captain Richards.
¢ Captain Richards states, that it was ro.
ported in France, that a French frigate had
captured a British frigate, after a hard

FROM SCUTH AMERICA.
We have received the following: coin
yication, from an intelligent correspon
cént In South America: Bost. Cex,
‘Buenos Ayres, July 26, 1818,
“We have heard both by the English and
American papers, of the several unsuccess =
ful attempts of the Americans against Ca-
nada, and aiso of many splendid exploits of
our frigates and privateers over the Eng-
lish ; but what would please me, would be
to hear of a permanent and indissoluble
peace between the nations.
The revolutionists here are prosecuting
with vigor the war agdinst the Limanianu
They have now an army of 4000 men in
the city and vicinity of Potosi, near which it
is said, is also the army of Lima, and ina
few days news is expected of a general bats
tle. The troops from this place are com-
manded by Gen. Belgrado, who has been
very successful intaking from the enemy the
cities of Tecuman, Salta and Potosi, within a
short time past.
‘On the other side of the river they afe
prosecuting the siege against Montevieo, &
throw daily into the city 30 or 40 shot ; but
the Montevideans still hold out, There are
now on their way to the siege, two large
mortars, which have been manufactured in
this city, which when they arrive, will pro-
bably effect something of importance. A
congress or assembly has been formed here,
consisting of deputies {rom the towns and
cities of the province, but they have not yet
declared their independence.
