They then served them wish Meat arid drink in abundance, whilst their chiefs dined in tier caole. I must give you an idea of their sobriety— they rat abundantly of fowls and Jiani, and drank each three trill bottles of champagne; they then took each three large cups of sit ong cake, and also asked for beer, which they drank each a bot tle after the roffee. They next proceeded to business, which was the demand of :30 sacks of oats, 60 shirts, two barrels of wine, each of :3-10 bottle-, two fat cows,' 30 loaves of eight pounds weight, and %Alien they Mend that :30 were not sufficient, they asked for 60 of the smile weight, a basket of three dozen of champagne for the Of tieu another of the same quantity of bottled beer, with candles, salt, &e. &e. When they had put all into a large waggon drawn by fool- strong horse , which they had brought with them, they set out, tin Mike that they were much surprised that he lived in his castle at the p.e.rnt moment .nnd assuring him that he ought to he very well content( J with their condnet,as the manner they treated him was very different from what they had required in the other castles in the ceighbonrhood. They 'stayed front three till eight o'clock in the eviellinC. When the Officers were on horseback they asked for more Champagne, which they drank without ceremony to the Duke's health, out of the bottles without glasses. Whilst they were in the comt yard, a poor waggoner with a team of fine horses passed In tore the castle ; they seized the poor man, waggon and all, and obliged him to follow them. " They went to a castle about two leagues off and stripped it Of every thing they found, as the master was not there ; they left no thing but the bare walls. Those who have the courage to stay in their hones do well, for if they make their visit, what they cannot take away they burn and destroy. In sic irt the Duke obtained what they name a safe guard, and they now leave the inhabitants quiet ; though since the visit I have given you the discription of, 100 men and 150 horses have been sent to be fed and provided for at the castle, and every week they demand something more. They haven's' given him an order to send 18 fat cows to the camp • s 0 think how all the tontines will be ruined if this continues. : 4 At •►l►e Duke's Hotel in Paris, he has had 30 soldiers and OM cers to feed, and also their horses, since the 7th of July.

The following ate a few passageb of the conversation which Lord Lowther and Mr. Lyttleton had with Buonaparte when he was tiaushipped from the Bc/lerophon to the Northam L. rland lloonaparte, whilst remonstrating against his detention, said— o• You do not know my character. You ought to have placed con& deuce in inv word of honour." Ooe of the Gentlemen said—" Shall 1 speak the plain truth to yule Buttnaparte—Speak it. I must then tell you, that since your invasion of Spain, nu Ellelishman could put trust even in your must solenm. engage ments."

General, that under your sceptre France was much mole to be feared than during the latter years of Louis "YCIV.'s reign. She was also sgraudised," &c. AUG. 27. B. " England on her part bad become more powerful." Here he referred to our colonies, and particularly to our acquisitions iu -- " Many well informed men are of opinion that England looses more than she gains by the possession of that overgrown and remote empire." B. " I wished to revive Spain ; to do much of that which the Cortes afterwards attempted to do." He was then recalled to the main point, and reminded of the character of the transaction by which he obtained possessi.:n of the Spanish Crown, to which lie made no answer, but took a new line of argument on the subject ot his detention, and, after lt discus. sion, concluded by sa)ing--" Well, I have been deceived in relying upon your generosity. Replace me in the position front which you took mr." Or words to that effect. Speaking of his invasion of Fr...xe, he said with great vehemence —" [ was then a Sovereign—l had a tight to make war. The King of France had nut kept his promises." He afterwards said exultingly, and hitching and shaking his bead I made war on the King of France with 600 mess." He said, that in confining hint as we did, we were " acting like a little aristocratic power, and not like -a great tree people." Of Mr. Fox he said, lie knew him, and had seen bins at the Thull leries—" He had not yonr prejudices." " Mr. Fox, General, was a zealous patriot with regard to his own comitiy, and besides a citizen of the world." B. "'He sincerely wished for peace, and I wished for it also. His death prevented the conclusion of peace. The others. were vat sincere."
