to all law, human and divine ; -but
such is the mortifying news ‘■from
Vienna. The duke of Wellington
is arrived, and the distribution of
souls is the great natter left to the
congrefc to determine on the depar
ture of lord Caftlereagh. On this
point the question is, how this ac
cession of human beings is to be
made mod conducive to the relative
flrength of the parties—how the
{fates (hall be rounded; or, in other
words, how they may be hereafter
brought into the field against one
another, with the molf murderous
effect, in case that the prefeni lion
like partition fliould be iound to be
only a breathing time of preparation
for future contcff. And this is the
result of all our efforts, at the cod
of f 700,000,000 for the deliver
ance of Europe.
Our readers will probably draw
the conclusion which appears to us
inanifeft, that France and Rufiia
have an understanding on the divi
sions that are to take place. France
infills on home points on the left
bank of the Rhine, and Luxem
burg is mentioned as one. To
this Rufiia fees no objection ; and
Prussia will also consent, provided
Purflia’s contingent of fouls (hall be
found in Saxony. And thus an
opening will be made for France
demanding all the left bank of the
Rhine.

There does not appear any dis
position in Napoleon to persecute
thole who served (he Bourbons —as

has iflued a decree for restoring tbs
freedom of the press.
For various reasons, Napoleon
is considered as more powerful than
ever. It is said be already has
nearly 400,000 bayonets devoted
to him. The prisoners who have
returned from Rufln, Germany,
England, &c. soldiers and seamen,
pant for vengeance for their fufftr

Turn as with the foul of one man.

Numerous petitions were laid

A striking contrast. The cry of
the English populace is “bread!

pleasure of a full belly, the other
pants for glory.
The Morning Chronicle Rates
that lord Caftlereagh has been
confined sick to his house ever since
the arrival in London of the late
accounts from France. The 40,
000,000 raised last year, and spent
in favor of the Bourbon dynasty,
proves that by the return of Bona

his whittle. [Many a true word

Murat was near Rome with a
