After the battle of Brienne, February 1 and the retreat of Napoleon to Troyes, the allies made a beld but desultory effort to obtain possession of Paris, by advancing at a rapid stepon several routesat the sam time. k The right under Blucher, &e. took th road by Sazane, Montmirilk Meaux‘& and its front was near the Jatter---about miles N.

But the French uncheial accounts state, that the allies had retreated from Fontainbleau and Nemouy, and that the whole allied army were reiring on Troy- LI Le. The last of Bonaparte’s officials dated, Tioyes, the 27th of Feb. vhere his H. Q. Tn were, and had been fom the 24th. (udinot, with a strong corps had advanced & Due-sur-Aube, and Maclonald had his advanced guard at Chatillion, the late scat of the Congress. He makes no mention €l- ther of the main allied army or the Con- gress. But this letter states that the wrecks of Blucher, Sacken D’Yorck and Kleist’s ¢orps were mane vring to entrap Marmont, who was at la Forte Goucher, which is not more than 45 miles from Paris ! and tho’ the emperor on the 27th states that mar- als Ney, Victor and Arrichi were at Ar- ¢i, Planci, & Nogent, treading on Blucher’s eels, yet a Paris note of March 2d (the atest) says, Marmont has taken an advantés cous position at Lacy, which is ten miles igher Paris than la Ferte Goucher! We confess we know not how to solve this rid- dle. We have not ‘received Bonaparte’s let- ler of the 24th of Feb ; but a Paris article gives an extract from it which says, that of- ficers from the French, Russian, Austrian, and Prussian armies had met at Lusignys near Troyes to treat for an armistice. The inactivity of Napoleon at Troyes may probably thus be accounted for. But no mention of the progress of his negociation is made in his last letter, The declaration of war by Murat king of Naples, against France, is confirmed. The viceroy had gained some repoited suc- cesses in Itally ; but he had been compell- ed to retreat from Veiona, where our ac- counts left him. The news from the south- west of France is important, Lord Welling- ton defeated Soult on the 28th Feb. at Or- tes, and was advancing on Bordeaux. The Perfect in that city proclaimed, on the 4th March, that he had invadea the depart- ment of Les Laudes, and was approaching Ginonde. The utmost consternation and alarm prevailed at Bordeaux. This 1s a bird--ye view of the late French accounts— That they allies had been obliged to retreat a cousiderable distance; and that the had much hard fighting, are certain : But no- thing had occurred, by these accounts de- We must wait the allied acconuts to form a fair cisive of the event of the campaign. judgment on the subject. “Cen.
