Aki late hdurlaft night a Hamburgh mail arrived, whicis hal brought us a copy of one of the food impor- Cant State Papers that has appeared for a long time. From the firfi ileps taken by the Court of St. Pe terfburgh, on receiving the news of the murder of the Duke d'Euo HIEN, namely, a public mourning; it was plain that it would be followed by fome other Reps, tellifying the abhorrence in which the aft was held by his Impartial. MAJESTY, and calculated to fecure the independence of Europe from fuch a grofs violation of the Laws of Nations in fu- ture. The fubjoined paper needs no comment. — The pability of any fatisfalory explanation being afforded by.the French Government, in the prefent flay of things, can hardly be conceived; for the Note of his IMPERIAL MAissry is not the appeal of imbecile pride, which only leeks a pretext for acqui. efcence. It is the language of incenfed dignity, of confcious reditude, of wounded juftice, of the Chief of a great nation, confident of the Divine Protec tion, and well aired that his condue will be ap• proved by every honeft man in Europe. It does not require a fpirit of prophxy to forefee what this mutt lead to, efpecially when his for PERIAL Mayssry (ball be made acquainted with the prime motive of BONAPAILTIA horrid a&, a with to int off the MCC of the Bootees:, a motive made fufficiently evident by the open proceedings which immediately followed for his afcending the Throne of France, and affurn ing the proud title of Imperial Brother. Will the Emperor ALaxaansa ever acknowledge him in that relation ? Will the other Powers of Europe acknow- ledge his title We unit not. We hope none of the Powers of Europe will ever fo far lofe fight of their own dignity, of jaftice, and of their doty, as to ac knowledge an ufurper who feems to fet at defiance all laws human and divine. The other snicks by the Mail are rendered com paratively trivial by the importance of the intelli gence refpeiting the condo& of the MAGNANIMOUS As.s:aanaa. The news, however, from Egypt, contained in the fubjoined letter float Conllantinople, is worthy of attention. 1 3 i > RATISBON, MAY 7.
