Feb. 20.

Yesterday we received French papers to the 9th inst. inclusive.

A Special Committee of the Conservative Senate was appointed on the 7th inst. to consider of the communication of the government: and in consequence of the report of Francois de Neufchateau, the Senate passed an arrêté, of which the following is an extract :-

" After triumphing in so many instances over internal factions and foreign enemies, the Emperor has now obtained a more illustrious and perhaps more difficult triumph, by raising himself above those sentiments which so many crimes and hatreds must necessarily inspire in his heart, and by proposing peace in favor of humanity, by his letter of the 12th Nivose to his Britannic Majesty, has decreed that a copy of this letter shall be entered in the registers, as a glorious monument for the Prince who wrote it, and for the nation which he governs

" Considering also, that this proposition, made at the moment when France is in the most formidable situation, has received from the enemy only an answer which appears intended to evade every object of conciliation ; the Senate declares that the Emperor may rely in this war, on its utmost zeal: as he may rely on the fidelity of the people and the army."

It will not escape the observation of the public how closely our Parliamentary Address is copied upon this occasion ; nor can it be necessary to repeat the remarks we have alone ventured to offer upon the strong evidence which exists, of Bonaparte's being now at last intent upon bringing his designs to the proof.
