LONDON, December 11.
The Editor of the Journal de Paris remarks
that a certain female crowned head, in the
Bourbon connection, does not assist now as usu
al at the council board. In confluence of this
judicious omiftion, he pay* * Very handsome
compliment to her royal husband and sove
reign ; but, at the end of it has' these very
severe words: “ A modern writer being ask
ed his opinion of the political talents of a
certain female crowned head, made this aK
fwer: Sa voix est melodieufe.”
The States General of the United Provinces
have made known to the Charge des Affaires,
of the Imperial AmbalTador, a resolution :
•* That their High Mightinefles would not pro
hibit the entrance and sojourning of flranger3
on their territories, so long as they behave
themselves peaceably, and did nothing con
trary to good order and the police } But that
this permiflion did not extend ro ft range n
coming in arms,' and in military array, &cc.
This intimation fully explains the meaning
of the placard, Which we Have already an
nounced.’ On thi folicitafiou* of the Empe
6f. th*y put liftoff the ordinance afcaiuft the
[Vol. IV. No. CLXXVK!.]
Brabant* coming in arms, but they tell then!
at :lic fame time, that they may come in what
numbers they please without arms, and be
protected.
Ex trad of a letter from Yarmouth , 03- 3I«
“ At day-light this morning our road exhi
bited a feeue the most awful aud dirt.effing:
Ships difmafled at anchor, and others feudding
before the wind without any canvass to fe r ;
ten fail on thore, five to the fouth of the town,
and five to the north ; wrecks floating in the
roads without mails. The Maria, Hare, a
new (hip from hence to Rotterdam, is atliore
to the southward of this town.”
On Sunday afrived a cornier from Vienna;
with the news of the capture of the fortrefs
of Belgrade, which surrendered the Bth of
this month to the army commanded by Field
Marihal Loudohn, with all the artillery, eon*
fifling of 312 pieces of cannon, all the arms,
military cheils and magazines. The garri
son, after being disarmed, were conduced to
Orfowa, from whence they will be free to re
tire into the territories of the Grand Seignior.
The Emperor has, on this occaffon, fenc
an order to the Cardinal Archbishop, to
celebrate High Mass, and to officiate in per**
son.
Mar that. Loud Ohtl ha# been compliment td..
with the Grand Croix of the order of St. Eti
enne. Counts Joseph Cotoredo and Wallie
are raised to the rank of Field Marshals,
Prince Hohenloe, Count Clairfayt, and Count
Brown, kt made Commanders <rf the mili
tary order of Maria The^efa.
Thus have the Imperial armies, in less than
three weeks, obtained five victories, made
themselves mailers, with little bloodshed, of
a fortrefs deemed almoff impregnable, the
key of European Turkey on the German fron
tiers, and reduced the provinces of Beffara
bia, Wallachia, Bosnia, and Servia; and
there is not a ffrong fortrefs, nor a powerful
army, to flop their progress to Constantinople.
Perhaps, early in the next campaign Lou
dohif may, at the gates of that capital, dic
tate peace ; and the Porte may be compelled,
by the cession of its European territories, to
purchase the fafety of its Asiatic empire. It
were fupetffuous to declaim on the danger
which muff arise to the fyffem of Europe from
these events. The present is the moment,
when its equilibrium is to be preserved An
interposition of the triple alliance in defence
of Turkey, might obtain for England a port
in the Archipelago, and a recovery of hat
Levant tfade, once the frurce off 6 much
opulence.—This measure, and this declara
tion of the independence of the Belgic pro
vinces, with the appearance of an Engliffi or
Dutch squadron in the Baltic, woud effectually
remedy the evil. Let it be remembered that
the liberties of Get many depend only on the
Prufiian Monarchy ; and that the cohesion of
that mass made up by difeordant and hoffile
parts, is only preserved by the fortuitous cif
cumilanccs of talent in its Miniffcrs, or Mo
narch.
Belgrade being taken, and the troubles in
the Aultiian Netherlands checked for the pre
ffcut, it will behove the French, as fpcedily
as possible, in earned, to prepare for the re
st 01 at ion of good order, that they may be
enabled to refill the attack! of foreign ene
mies ; if they do not, and continue in their*
present diffracted and deranged date, their
wearuefa will, in all probability, induce the
