VVAit D E PA RIM E N T. The Minister at War to the Prefects, Su'Prefects and Mayors of ihe Empire. Paris, May 3, 1815. Sirs,-Ir vve arc obligeil to talie up arciis again for the defence of out independence and our firesides, what cause can be more just or holy t- What cause should inspire us with more unani- mous and energetic efforts ? It is the cause of a great people, whrch will he free, and master of itself, against an ebraged league, which would impose oil it dishonourable I laws. On the success of this straggle depends the existence of France. France, therefore, should exert, for its defence, all the resources which na- ture, the art, the genius, and the courage of its inhabitants can ofrer. The Emperor is with us; the happy revolu- tion which has restored him t,) us has redoubled our strength, has completed our ranks, has rcviv- ed in our hearts all our hopes. On the first violation of cur frontiers, the Emperor will be at, the head of his victorious battalions, and Europe shall acknowledge iu us the race of heroes. But while he will fight for the honour and integrity of the Empire, he must reckon on the co-operation of a!! Frenchmen. 11 All constituted authorities, every citizen, should second, iu all respects, and by ali kinds of partial resistance to the enemy, *hc great move- lieni which his genius will give the impulse to the masses whose success will thus become infal- lible, and insure our safety. Let every mails therefore, he ready and contribute all his means to repulse every insult on the national honour— every attempt at invasion. No one is now ignorant, that France, if loy- ally defended in 1814, at ail the points of its ter- ritory, would have been the tomb of its devasta- tors. They are oniy formidable fur those who sutler themselves to be frightened with threats, which seldom could have becu followed by any consequence. "11 more real forces penetrate into some of our departments, let obstacles of every kind mul- tiply on their P,sa,-e-let their convoys, their detachments, he destroyed or ecit off its march-let active correspondence be kept up eve- ry wbere-let fbcmilitary chiefs promptly le- ceive intelligence of the least news, Let the inhabitants of the country dispute even along the defiles, the roads, the marshes, the passes, the hollow roads. This war, without danger to those who know the localities, honour- able and useful to the citizen, who defends his property, will he for the foreigner ig- uorant of the land an(llanluac. Let the small- I est town, let insulated houses, tniils, enclosures, I become, by the bravery, industry and intelligence oi its defenders, posts capable of retarding the enemy. Let the gates and the walls of the towns be repaired—let the bridges be fortified ;.n,l r'pf>iul- I ed-let the example of Tournos, of Chalons, of St. John de Lome, of Langres, of Compeigne,&c. inflame She emulation of all the cities-et them ail be disposed to deserve, at time of need, the same culogiums from Iheir Sovereign, the saint gratitude for their country When that is in dan- ger,every magistrate is a every citizen is a soldier. Ail Frenchmen knew the laws of honour and duty; no one will excuse him- self to the names, equally disgraceful in their eyes, of coward or traitor; and the Emperor after having insured their peace, for which he will fight, will only have to decree signs of honor or civic crowns. Be assured, Sirs, &e. &c.

Vice Admiral Sir Alexander Cochrane has iransmilled to John Wilson Croker, Rsq. tie undermentioned letters, which (lie Vice Ad- miral had received from ilear-Admiral Sir George Cockburn.

The. latter reports Captain Barrie's pro- ceedings in the Rappabanock River, conduct. ed principally with a view to compel the ene- my to re«fti8emble his wilitia aud to harrass I his troops, bYkeePing them constantly on the alert. The town of Rapnabanofk was taken pos- session of on She 29.ii of November, having'j been evacuated by the force which the enemy had drawn otsi lo defend it, and which was at- terwards driven from a position it took upon i hiil a stand of colours, with some arms, iimmunition, and -were found in the town, left behind by the enemy in his hasty retreat, and some flour aud tobacco were em- barked in our vessels. Oil the 4th of December Captain Barrie lauded with a detachment of seamen, marines, and soldiers, at Rappabanock, and learning lhat the enemy had assembled a force of six II hundred rocn at Faruham Church, about seven mde Úom the place of landing, he proceeded thfther, and'attacking the enemy in a strong position he had taken op. drove hini into the woods, with iiia loss of a field piece, and seve- fal kfrlEfd a-rfd wouuded, and released several negroes, which werjj fomul confined in the II woods; in the performances of whiénservrces iiofa man was burl-tin our side. A letter froa) Sir George Cockburn It) Sir t i Alexander Cochrane, dated at Cumberland I island the 27Ui January, incloses a repott 1 from Captain Somerviiie, of his Majesty'sship I Hola, with one to the latter from Cantaiu Barrie, of the Dragon, staling that with de, tachments-of troops and marines placed under Captain Barrie's orders, he, on Msc I Hh of the said month, took possession, without opposi- tion, of the above mentioned island j and pass- ing over to l.he inaindand i:i Georgia, on the 15th, with such troops as were not required to keep possession of the island, landed at a small distance from Point Petre, and after a smart skirmish with a plldy (If the enemy, who were quickly driven from their post in a jungle on the way, took possessiosi of the fort on Point Petre, withuut further opposition, and afierwards of the tower of St. Mary's.— ¡ In the skirmish the British had one killed and ¡ three wounded the enemy had a Captain and Lieutenant severely wounded, "Pd between 151 and 20 rank and file killed. Sir George Cockburn further states, that Capt. Ross, of the Albion, was sent up St. Msry's River, wilh some armed" boats, to bring down such vessels as might Le found up 1 there, and returned with a large ship loaded ¡' with timbe.r, and the Countes3 of Hurcourt Iiuliaman, which had been captured by au American privateer and that having era- barked all the prodllcecunecled at St. Mary's in the vessels taken there, and blown up tho fort at Point Petre, and destroyed thegllns. fyc. lh;it were not doemed~fit to bring away, the troops returned without interruption from the (lIemy to Cumberland Island- The enemy had assembled troops at but did uol 1!1 aiiy force, oc- casional skirmishing parties hovered about the British posts. With two other 'letters, dated at Cumber- land Inland £ h« ITML and 27th February, Sir George Cockburn transmits to the Vice Admi- ral reports addressed to him by Capt. Ramsay, of his Majesty's ship Reguius, and Captain Philpot, of his Majesty's-sloop Pimrose.

The latter reports his proceedings in St. I Mary's River with a division oi armed boats, sent with a view to surprise a detachment of the enemy. The bosia had proceeded a con- siderable distance up the river. whenthey were I unexpectedly attacked frnm the Spanish side: Ihe enemy 's fire was silenced by th«»l from the boats; but a consideration of the narrowness of the river, with a number of commanding heights and houses in their rear, obliged Capt. Philpot to determine on returning, which was executed with the greatest Coolness and order, I though exposed to the enemy's fire on bolh sides ot the l iver,, by which three tticn were killed and fifteen wounded, including amongst the lailer Captain Philpot, Captain Bartholo- mew, of the Erebus, Lieut. Eraser, of the ma- rines, Mr. James Everingliam, and Mi. J. H. Peel, midshipman, of the Albion.

LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 12.
LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 12. There was a report on Tuesday evening that a corps of French troops under General Ex- celmans had made an irruption mto Bouillon and taken possession of it but that they were subsequently driven out with loss by the Prus- sians. We do not believe ttiere is any trtilli ii) this report; but we do expect that a few days will elapse before we sbal! have to announce the commencement of hostilities. The inter- view bctweeu the Duke of WeiHugtau aud I Marshal BIncher ntTirtemon. is said to liive been to arrange finally the plan of combi.icd operations. The Duke is t:xpeeled to ?ro ve his he:d-quarters to Alhe, and Marshal Blu- cher to Namur—From Ostend to Brussels the troops are making a genera! movement in ad. vance. The country round Ostend ii; sail ta have been inundated, as a measure of precau- tion; the same has been resorLed ik) iii tile v, cinity of Nieuport. The post has been stop- ped and all communications with the French frontier suspended since Friday I-,tst.-Coitrier. From an official report dated from Milan on the 24th ult. it appears that Murat evacuated, Oil the night of ihe 22d, his strongly enlrcnch. ed position at Cesana, aud retiredin great haste. Desertions from the French army continue. The last Messenger who left Tonrnay saw ten French officers come in. A letter from an English officer in that town to his friSnd in London, says, that if 44 he wishes to witness ihe opening of the campaign, he must repaIr forthwith to the neighbourhood of Head-quar- lers, as orders for commencing offensive ope- rations were expected daily." '■ Uye.—A French fishing boat arrived here from Boulogne, which purt she quitted on Monday.—The master reports that Bonaparte slept at Boulogne on Sunday night, and took his departure from theuce on Monday morn. ing. Private letters from Paris state, that Bo* naparte previous to his leaving Paris, had or- dered all the cavalry in Paris to proceed lo the frontiers with ail possible speed. It wif; stip- posed at Paris that he would immediately at- tempt a dash into the Netherlands, Paris. — On Thursday last stakes began to he planted on the rising gronnds at Mimtmarle, &c. for the purpose ol tracing out the entrenchments whica are to he constructed and fixing the batteries which are to be erect., cd there. The same measures of defence are in progress at the heights of Belvilie, Menil. Montant, &c. Yesterday Commissioners pre • ceeded to investigate Oil the po the damage likely to be sustained by property in the places where the works are to be constructed, ia order to indemnify the owners. On the 30ih Q.f March, lS14, on;" five ur six pieces of ar- tillery were placed on the heights of Mont- marte above 100 will now be mounted there. The pupils of the Politcchuic Schoo! perform- ed prodigies of valour on the heights of Cbau- mont. They had vowed to each other to die at their post for the defence of Paris and their country. A."er the sanguinary battle of the 30th, severai of these brave j-oLt,is- we ought rather to oay-lilesc warriors, were found dead beside their pieces.- One stiii held in his hand one of the spokes of a gun-carriage wheel. It may be recollected, that it was in a taveru near the barrier of SL Dellis. thallhe capitll- lation of Paris, which hitherto has tiot bccz". published, was signed. Another Robber Shot.—The house of Mrs, Billaraore, in Lower Pbilimore-place, Keu- sington* has lately been attacked it> the most daring manner three times. A young man, a servant in the family, was intrusted with the defence of the interior of the bouse, and he has proved himself highly trust worthy, as well as courageous. Yesterday morning, about two o'clock, a most desperile attempt was mads to break opei^the house of Mrs. Biiiamore, for the lhird time, and there is every reason to believe by a gang of robbers. Their noise awoke and alarmed the trusty young man, lha servant, who got up and dressed himself he had a pair of loaded pistols, but ouly took 6ne ofthem with him. He proceeded softly to where he heard the noise come from, and I found the kitchen door being cut open, with si large knife, such as is used by butchers, or for cutting bacon they had cut several pieces out of the door, and when they had made an aperture larg-e enough, the servant saw a mall's face distitictly-lic was then only about two yards from the robber, and taking aim, he discharged his pistol ut him, which was loaded with shot. The servant then retreated to procure his other pistol, when one of the robbcis fired at him through the aperture, which stunned him for a considerable time, and caused hun to suspect lie was mortally wounded. On his recovering he found a heat about his neck, and on examination Ie discovered that he had been shot with a bail, which had penetrated through his great coat and waistcoat collars, aud fsis ucckcioth was burning from the wadding; the bail then fell from him, so that it was a providential escape of his life. On getting up he discharged his iecolld pistol through the aperture of the kitchen door, but with what effect is not known however one of the robbers must have received the contents of that, or his first pis- tol, as a copious discharge of blood was dis- covered on the pavement of the court yard, &c. and the robbers contrived to make theic escape with their wounded man, although the neighbourhood was alarmed by a female ser- vanl of Mrs. Billamore springing a large rat- tie, calling thieves, &c. However, the wound- ed mall must shortly be taken, as the servant has no doubt but that he shot him in the face or head. The house ill within two doors of Mr. Sketchley, the Magistrate, who had tha business investigated before him yesterday at the Public Office, Bow-street, wheu it appear- ed that there were two watchmen employed to protect that row of houses. One of these vigilant guardians attended at the Office, and stated, that soon after he bad called the hour of two o'clock, he heard two discharges of a g(iii oi- pigtol, and' although he was within SO yards of the spot, at Mrs. Biliasnore's, liotise, when the pistols were fired, he acknowledged that he did not attempt to investigate from whence they proceeded, or endeavour to a certain the cause in fact, he gave himseit at* trouble about it, but assigned the ridiculous account of his belief that It was people shoot- it, cats. The Magistrate iuformed him that his conduct should certainly be further in- quired into. The servant also attended, and produced bis clothes, which had been shot, and it was ascertained the thickness of the collar at his coat aad waistcoat saved his life.
