A Mail from Brussels, which arrived yesterday, brought a letter addressed by the Prussian Intendant, Ribbon trop, to the Prefect of the Seine appointed by Louis XVIII. It is dated July 10th, and threatens that, in case the contribution of 700 millions of francs, imposed by Prince Blucher on Paris, should not immediately be paid, or part of it, the Prefect would be sent to the fortress of Graudenz, in West Prussia. This letter was written in German, which the Prefect not understanding, begged the bearer to tranflate for him, which he readily did. The Prefect suffered himself to be arrested, but stopped his journey to Graudenz, by making a beginning to pay. An armistice has been agreed upon between the Sardi nian troops on the Var and Marshal Brune—one article of which stipulates that " Brune shall do no injury to those who have declared for Louis X CAPTURE OF KANDY.
