OUR latest accounts from Europe breathe nothing but peace between France and Eng land ; and from every appearance there i» great probability that this deferable event has already taken place, in conftquencc of which, neutral and pacific nations will be free to carry on trade and commerce without interruption or filiation. It would appear that Bonaparte has still great projects in view on rile continent gs Europe, and, per htpe, towards Alia ; these views will be developed aS soon as a peace f place with England. One of the Herculean b i |>ots, a CharkHon paper informs ns, he has 1 in contemplation is, tocrowh the Duke of York King of America ! but we are of opi. nl©n, he would sooner drangle the Britilh lion in his den, than aflJil to r«*-eflab!i(h his paternal power & dcfpotifm in ihe U.
