London, April 11.

It is reported at Paris, that Talleyrand, though in the number of those exempted in the amnesty proclaimed at Lyons, has made his peace with the Emperor. Talleyrand would certainly be a valuable acquisition to the government of Napoleon, as he is in possession of all the notes, minutes, & secrets of the ministers at the Congress. The Duchess Dowager of Orleans, and the Duchess of Bourbon remain at Paris, and Bonaparte has settled on them pensions for life of 300,000 livres per annum!

Troops continue to embark, and ammunition to be sent off with incessant activity to the continent. At Harwich, Dover, Deal and Ramsgate, embarkations take place daily. The 16th Dragoons embark at Dover to-day, and the 7th Hussars.

SECOND EDITION, 3 O'CLOCK.

We have this moment received the Paris papers of the 5th inst. Their contents are of little importance. The Moniteur contains a long intercepted correspondence between the Duke and Duchess of Angouleme, and the king of Spain, soliciting assistance: and that the Spanish troops might be ordered immediately to enter France. There is also a decree of the Emperor Napoleon, which states that the laws created by the National Assembly, applicable to the Bourbons, are to be executed according to their form and tenor: and that all persons who have accepted ministerial appointments under Louis are not to come nearer Paris than 30 post leagues.
