As to the Officers of Ordnance in Ire land, they were entitled to every praife for the ttria eft economy, and the molt laudable attention to the duties of the department. If blame, therefore, was jufily to attach itfell to any quarter, it would rather belong to this fide. He confeeed that, upon this head, he was not fufficiently prepared, to be as fatif faftory as he could with, not having had fuffieient time to pollif. himfelf of the fulleß information upon the fubje& ; he Would, however, take the afflict} op portunity to enable him to account for this apparent difproportion. Mr. JOHNSTONE felt much obliged by the great anxiety the Right Hon. Gentleman had evinced to give him and the Houle every fatisfattion relative to the qiiettions he took the liberty of putting to him yelterday. It was, however, very natu r al for him to fuppors that in that country, where the material of which the gunpowder was made was to be had, it could be furnifhed.at a cheaper rate than it could be contrafted fur in England. As to the requifition for warded by the Governor of Ceylon. he (Mr. John- hone) did not think that the refponfibility to that Houk relied upon the Governor, but upon the Mi nitiers, who were hound to judge of the propriety of acceding to it. This, too, he felt it neceirary to add, that he had the fullett reliance in the capability of the Governor of Ceylon, and thought that that Gentle man had given proofs of a Aria economy.

" The King. whcl i ferlb the inn extent and mapi. tode of the misfortunes and dangers which unavoi dably forrounded his faithful (übjets, preferred an immediate and certain tranquillity, to the remote' and uncertain prolx& of the return of the fortune 4 bar in bis favour ; his Moiety. therefore, itnmedi: ately took the refolution of making (uch facrifices, however great they might be, as were compatible with the interefts of his throne, and accordingly tent the Minitier of State, the Marquis Lucebeffiai, as early as the ath of Odober, with ample diplomatic ,powers. to the bead quarters of the Emperor and King Napoleon. The (strikes which the King had agreed to, on receiving the £rft &patches from Mar • finis Luecheffini (to whom, in order to accelerate the bufinefi, his Majefly had fent Major General Zaf. trim) were fo adequate to the advantages which the enemy, by the fortune of a tingle day, had gained, that fo early as the 3oth of Oaober, they were re (peairely acknowledged, and received as the bafis of a treaty for peace, by the Plenipotentiary, the Grand Martha! of the Palace, Duroe ; nobs; this bafis the peace itfelf was to have been concluded without delay, and the King, on his own part, took all the neceittry meafures to provide that thofe con. ditions of peace Should be pnodually fulfilled, imme diately after the figning of the preliminaries thereof. The Emperor Napoleon on the contrary refufed to `put a flop to hoflilities, and allowed his army not only to enjoy the advantages they already pofefed, but to proceed in acquiring new conquelts, and even all the provinces of the King on the Oder and the Warta, dellitote of garrifonr, were inundated with French troops, and thus theft defencelefs provinces felt all the horrors of war, as well as the capital. " At the head quarters of the Emperor, eves four days after the acceptance of the conditions of peace, b (editions proclamation was printed, publiChed, and diltributed, tending to produce an infurreaion or dieurbances and rebellion among the fubjeas of his Majefly in South Proffia. Wherever the enemy's troops could find their way the property of the King was taken polletfilm of, the royal treafures were !dud ;—it was attempted to (educe the (errant. of his Majefly from their lawful allegiance, and an oath was even tendered to them, whereby they were re quired to (wear fealty to the enemy. 44 Thofe fats created a fufpicion that the Empe ror was not ferious in his intention of concluding a peace upon the balls already underftood by the Ple nipotentiaries of both nation.. The unceafing. but ineffeasal endeavours of the Plenipotentiaries of the King, not to break off entirely the thread of commu nication between the two belligerent powers, proved clearly to his Majefly that this fufpicion was well grounded, more particularly as the pofitive declara tion. • That the Emperor, knowing the fituation in which Pre& has been plated, since the unfortunate battle of the lath, mud take advantage of that fitua. don for the conclufion of his peace with England and Ruins," leaves no doubt remaining with refpea to the intentions of France. After this the formally concluded bats for peace was entirely yet afitle, and inftead of it an ar• miftice was propofed on the part of the French, q t. the very moment when it was thought that the bay s of a definitive peace bad been fettled. and each new advatuagg gained in the interim by the French, now increafed the feverity of the demands made upon Pt uffia. " After having indulged themfelves in fn many' illufory hopes, the Plenipotentiaries of the King at lift thought themfelves juftified in concluding on the 6th of November, the armiaice hereafter infected terbatint, in order to put flop to the continually in. crewing denntads of the enemy. This document was accompanied by the official declaration of the Impe. rial Minifter for Foreign Affairs, M. Talleyrand, Prince of Benevento, the contents of which proTe spore clearly than any thing that had gone before, that Pruffia would only flatter herfelf in vain, if the cherifhed the moft diftant hope of a fecure or !ailing peace, notwiAftanding the unheard of &cam which the artniflice impored upon her. 40 But if the King himfelf even had indulged fuch a hope, it was no longer in bis power to fulfil the conditions in that arrnillke, with regard to the re turn of the Ruffian armies, becqufe, as the French troops during the negotiation had advanced even to the Viltula, flajetly was not in a litpation ao anp the march of the Ruffian armies, when their owq frontiers were menaced by the enemy. Thus no choice was left tq the wing ; he was o bli ge d t o ra • • fore his ratification of the umiak' which the Grand Matfhal Moot brought to his head quarters at O. rode, on the =id of November. 1. If any alternative remained, it was one that irn• plied the accomplifhing of inipolfibilities, viz to in. vice the Cabinets of St. James's and St. Peterlburgh to unite with his Majefty, and agree upon the W s of a aegociation with die Emperw_Napoleon for a ge . neral peace. " This has been done, and though there were bct feeble hopes of the fuceefs of fuels as attempt, yet ti e King did not recal the Marquis Luecheifini from the bead quarters of the Emperor and King. 4. During the time that the King was thus casea ting all the refources in his power to flop the Osed. ding of human blood, he was never thelefs bufily oe, eapied in bringing forward all the means of refinance which GOD has given him. While fortrefes, provided with ample meant -of defence, Rich as thole of Stettin, Coftsin, Mag. &burgh, &c. have been delivered up to the enemy ie a moll fcandalous manner by their refpeeive` com. menders; the other fortreffes of the country, patti. sularly thole on the Banks of the Vidula, have ben now put in the belt poffible (late of defence, and en. trufted to the command of brave and honourable' Officers. The reft of the marching regiments which were quartered or encamped near the Viftula and Wane, (ball be united with the numerous well dif. ciplined and brave army brought to the affitlance of the King by his true friend and faithful Ally the, Kasper Alexander. de While thefe united troops attack the enemy. a new and numerous army, which is begun to be col.. leaed. well difcipliced, and equipped for war, (hall follow their fellow foldiers to the field of glory.— Above all, the King relies on the fupport of that people, who glorioufiy fought the battles .11 the Seven . Years War, again( almoft all Europe, and who did not defpond nor waver in their allegiance to their Monarch. even when the Capital, and the greater part of the kingdom, were in the poCrelMon of the enemy ; his Majefly looks with confidence to the fupport of that people, who, upon that occafion, in " the midi% of unheard of perils and calamities, evin ced an energy uod firmoels which has merited the applaufe of the prefent age, and fecured them that , of future generations. " At the pretext moment there are even greater calls upon our ecergies than there were at the period of the above calamities, We now &niggle for all that is dear and honourable to us as a nation, or fa cred to humanity. To preferve the independence and exifience of the nation alone the king took of arms ; this the nation, nay, the whole world knows; and the enemy will r of be able to deceive the people by the phantom of a pretended coalition, of the ex. iftenee of which be cannot produce the leaf% evi dence. - " In her former buggies in the feven years war.
