From the Boston G.vzrtte. We do not have half the extracts we ©tight to have from the French JrtVrrnsls. "They are worth volumes of reasoning They shew the progress of "the human mind, and ^display our dangers and interests, in. language which sophistry cannot prevert, i..... nor obstWicy cW. ir rvbstu»-(C,y aenv. I'rvm the Bordeaux Echo de. Commerce, Paris, A.ug. 22, 1807. " Yesterday the corps Legisla'if, was re ceived by his majesty on the throne, sur- rounded by the princes, ministers, jrrar.d- ofiicers, and officers' of the househould. The legislature Were introduced to the audi- ence by his excellency the sjrand master of -< t™ his excellen tn>ops 1 • :e by his excellency »•». ^ ceremonies, and presented by his excellen- cy the vice s;rand elector-" Mons. Fontaines, the president, addres-ed tTie throne as follows : ' Sire—The legisla- tive bony comes to deposit at the feet of the throne theaddressof thanks which itjhasvot;d «nanimously, less for the conqueror than the pacificator of Europe." (\fter n ticing tire splendors of fhe campaign it proceeds. ' We turn nowt.i spectacles more con- soling—we prefer to follow you to the bor- ders of that river, where without hostile array two barks bear two emperors, and with thr-m, the destinies of the. world ! ! Memorable day ! ! Day (unique) alone in the history of all ages! Those two armies in presence of each other, contemplate with astonishment art interview so pacific. after combats so murderous—and suddenly .4.00,000 soldiers, Italians and Bataviaus, Sc,thians and Sartnatians, Germans French, throw down their arms, nvhet fwo greatest sovereigns of the earth advance to aids each tlier. to regulate themselves the fate of other empires, and present each *;ther their hands in token of reconcilation. Alexander and Napoleon approach- War ceases to ra;re—and one hundred millions of men are in repose. ^^^^^^^ ' The future interests of Europe will de- pend on these august conferences, of which the young heir of the Cr.ars was worthy.' *—Comment. {Yes the suspected son of an obscure Corsiean, deigns to honor the de Steendmt of forty Czars with an tntervie v.) " The treaty longer a- Tl.y pretext for continental wars." GOMMKNT. We have often said that France makes Kvar >ithout pretext. Here, the legislative assembly confesses it. At the very moment ¦when it declares that there « as n- pretext For any continental wars, France was invad .ing H Istein with 80,000 men ; and the same papers tell us, there are 40,000 men for the invasion of Portugal, Our corres- pondent from Bordeaux adds', that Spain is also to be attacked and perhaps new-modelled. T;it legislative assembly -tells the monarch that all this is without pretext—Shall WE venture to contradict thin high authority ? After many fulsome and personal compli- ments to the emperor and the sirand nation, the legislature end with these very memorable and never to be forgotten "words : "• We swear, sire, never to betray these sentiments, wtiich you approve—We swear itbef re this throng, secured by so many tro- phies & .hich governs (dumrne) all Europe " $ >on we shall see perfected, under the #ye of your genius, our civil and political in- stitutions. Yon will give them that charac- ter of grandeur and stability, which is ex- emplified in all your acts, and to com plate your glory, true liberty, which exists only in true monarchy, will bt more & more strength- ened under an ALL-powtrful pr.nce." Will any of our republicans who are so oevoted to France dare to question the cor- rectness of the opinions of the first legisla ft ve assembly in the World ? Can that be treason which the free representatives of the nation which governs all Europe, advanc- ed at the feet of the throne. The Federalists have always been consist- ent in their attachment to a republican go- vernment. Hence they have always dread- ed the overgrown power of the monarch, who threatens to overturn all republican in- stitutions* But not so, the democrats of our country. They o.re dazzled with the splendor of this Ilew created monarchy. They are open and vociferous in its praise The Georgia patriots, drink in fall hbati ens to the great Napoleon, who has fixed Iheliberties < t Ear/ope on a 6m basis. TnpsE liberties, * hich the inhabitants ¦who enjoy them declare, can only consist tvithtrue Monarchy. ^^^^^^ The Chronicle echoes this language—It is never weary ot the praises of Bonaparte. Who are tnen the true lovers uf constitu tional freedom, th. se -vh admire and ap- jslai d, or those who dt'ead power ? Front the Paris Moiiitcut ** Denmark will soon have need of men and money, to sn-tain the struggle, but if the people of Denmark second their prince and resist the horrible oppression, the em peror of France will n t suffer Denmark to want either money or men. The histery of nations does not offer an example of such uttro city. Sovereigns and people of Eutope, if England like France, had 8 or 0,00,000 men on foot, what would become of you ? !" R- flections! The voracious Tyger ad- dressed one day the weaker inhabitants of th' forest—" If, said lie the wolf had as much strength as 1 have, what lavage would he make among you."—The oiatoi kad atjthe moment of his harrangue, just finished his repast upon two buffaloes whom he had strangled and he was reposing him self after t'-e fatigue of the chase, and dur Ing the horrors of digestion. If we did not see examples of it every iay, one v. ou'.d be astonished, .that any na- such an exclamation ss the above, when she is surrounded on every side with the bleeding or rotten eatcases of the neighbors whom she has devoured. One would as soon exp.-ct to find morali- ty in the lips of the robbers in the cave of Oil Bias, as reflections on the sufferings or innocent nations, in the speeches of the grand robber nf the 'World. The tscutrheor.s nf Bonaparte and his tri- umphal columns, which many of us have seen I in France, form the best reply which Eng- land could make to this ins. lent language of his—Great Prince ! " The battles of Trebbia. Lodi Marengo, Alexandria, Austerlitz, Ulm. Jena, Friedland." " The destruction of Sardinia, Parma, M-dena, Bologna, Genoa, Lucca, Tuscany, Naples, the butchery of Jaffa, the invasion E- ¦gypt, the theft of Malta, (where you was admitted as a friend, and robbed as an ene- my.) the subjugation of Spain, of Bavaria, of Holland, of Switzerland, of G -aeva, of the Pays de Vaud, of the Pays de Vallais, of Baden, of Wirlemberg, of Saxony, of Prussia, of Hamburg, and the intended and avowed seizure of Holstein, Portugal and Turkey." These, great pacificator of Europe, are the trophies of thy virtues. These are the proofs of not what thou wouldst do, but of what thou hast done with thy 8oO;000 SALEM, October t6. Arrived, schr.

It was conjectured at Gibraltar, when the Wa-p and Constitution left that place, that an attempt would be made on the for- tress by the French ; and 'hat the assem- blage of theitroopsat Bayo' xte, w a- intended as a pteparatory ^ep towards that object. Great preparations . ere accordingly making to put the f rts in the highest possible state of defence. Captain Reynolds, of the ship Factor, arrjted at this port yesterday, left St. Peters- burg on the 9th of August, pased Copen- hagen the 22d, and left Eloineur on the 23d. Capt. R. informs, that when passing Copenhagen, he was boarded by three offi- cers from British men of war, who -ere tlien waiting tor an opportunity to get their ships into the inner roads of Copenhagen, f r the purpose of commencing the bom- bardment, tie troops_ haviiig been previous- ly ianded. On the 23d, when capt Rey nolds was at Eisineur, 30 miies from Co- penhagen, he heard the - commencement of the bombardment, as he .apposes, of Co- penhagen ; by 10 o'cl ck the fire became general and tremendous, and continued till between 3 and 4 in the ahem on, w hen it ceased, Capt. R. having but little wind was, at 9 o' lock, where he might have heard the firing, had it re-commenced. The impression on capt R's mind is, that Copenhagen has surrendered.
