VIENNA, DECEMBER st. It is said that the Emperor (I Russia has declared that he thinks to celebrateut Vienna the fete of the Emperor Frhncis on the 13th of February; in return for the manner i 1 which that Monarch celebrated Lis.' A circntustanCe which seems to indicate that the stay, of the Monarchs will be prolonged is, that sixteen, new fetes have been ordered for the Court. On the' other hand, we have more lopes than ever of a happy, iuue of the Congress. - 'and conference. It On Christmas there was a cr seems that since the delivery ot ,Count Hardenberg's, , Notes, the negoeiatiOns writing have ceased, and , the mode of treating verbally, which was adopted it the commencenwilt ot the Congress, has been ri. sumed. The twelve ar Clays laid before the}COhiteit on the affairs ot Germany, have, given rise W most important discussions in several sittings. Thevogis ter of the proceedings fills twenty folio sheets, but it is not judged proper to comniiii,icAte them at present to the public. BRUSSELS, JANUARY 8. This morning passed through this city a Couriei of the King of Naples corning from London, whkher he carried dispatches for his master a short time since; he returns to Naples by way of Munich, being charged with dispatches for the King of Bavaria, and for Prince Eugene, late Viceroy of Italy. A private letter from Vienna of the 28th ultimo says, the French negotiations have employed all the lame of diplomatic art to hinder Prussia from be coming a neighboar to France; they have said, that every contact of the two States would lead to dis putes, and cause war, which it was essential to pre.* vent in the new order of things in Europe. From this truth, which cannot be contested, they wanted to draw an inference which has not had the good for tune to be approved ; it would be proper, said they, to cede to France the province of Luxembourg, with the fortress of that name, :mil all the part of the Ar dennes, extending to the fro..tiers of die country of Namur. u This country," said they, is w:,uld not at all increase thc power of France, but would greatly add to its secnri:y." The Mini,ters of the Allies per ceived the subtilty of such aii argument : and you may easily suppose they were not the dupes of it. .The provinte of Litaeirlisourg, renowned for the bravery and loyalty .ts itthahttants, has never been separated from the Netherlands ; ybu may be assured it will make a parr of our tine Belgium, envied by certain Powers, twt whow destiny is irrevocably filed. The Dutch, the the children of the same family, are going to erubsace as brothers after a Wog svaration. RATISEON, DECEMBER 30. ' According to a private letter from Dresden, says . the Bambets G,;zdte, a deputation of thecitizens having► requested of, the precut Government the revocation of the order, forbidding any mention to be nude of King Frederick Auguslus iu the puolic prayers, has met with a refusal. BERLIN, DECEMBER 31. ' Baron Bulow, the Minister for the Finances, is sent for to Vienna, and will set out inimediAtely. Mr. Vilewitz, Councillor of State, aid Civil Governor of the Countries between the Elbe and the Weser, is ar rived here to regulate with the higher Audio' ities the definitive organization of those Provinces. The Countess de Voss, who was at the head of the Royal Household, died last night. . • ' ' , AUGSBURG, JANUARY 4. In the Journal called Atkirneiou, are the following remarks—" Upon the future fate of Saxony and its King :" The question of the future fate of Saxony and its Sovereign may be considered in a two fold point of view, that of right, and that of plicy. This -king dom is spoken of as a country without a master, and. its King as a criminal, whose only hope is in the in- 1 dulgence that may be shewn him. The King has not renounced his throne. If he has lost his right to it, it can be only by conquest, or bya valid sentence. When the Oppressor at Europe disposed of Hanover, which be had conquerefi t England, far froM recog. nising his right so to dispose of it, evera, declared way against the Power which had accepted of that coign try. On the other hand, when England gave Gua. daloupe to Sweden, the Oppressor of Europe, on his, side, disputed the doctrine that conquest alone vitro alienate the sovereignty. Thus England and its enemy were agreed in rejecting this princifile. Saxony, then, is not become by conquest a,anunfry' without a master. It is certain that no seats* has been pronounced against - the King of Saxony; for he has never been cited—never heard : he is, therefore, at the most, in a state of accusation, in Which he aunt be considered as iniweent till he shall have been condenar,ed. But if the King is to be judged, who shall be his juakei? Shalt they be his accusers, or those who seek to profit by his spoil ? Those whose policy has placed him in the embarrassing situation which of itself excusesithe faults that it may have caesed. Shall Saxony judge him ? But the unani mous wishes of,Saxony call him back. Or Geimany? But Germ:my demands above all_things his restora tion. Or the Congress ? But which of the Ministers there as'eribied is commissioned for this ? But to whet cid those qw:stions ? Must we remind the Sovereigns or k:tuope that Kings acknowledge no other judge than tie who judges the conscience ? Neel.' we tear to hear a contrary maxim - from the mouth of their Ministers t 1 4 The King of Saxony has not been flied, could not be tried : bow then can he be condemned ? But supposing fur ,a moment that he was su—by what principle of law can the punantilit inflicted upon him be extended to the Palaces of his Illouseto the Princes of the Ducal line who fonght in the ranks of the Allies, who shed their bl .od, who sacri. Figbt rot* timing fer doom* sopp0.: 1 _11.11-pc- j don, after being work out of the -41940 0( ened nations, be reeeiveti in the nineteenth tury in the European law of nations ? or is the con• ft:cation of • kingdodi less odious than th it of a poor cottage When John Frederick, the vassal of the Empire, and sub*t to its tribunals, was degraded from the Elettoral,dirity by Chatles V. is head of the Empire, the Emperor did not give it to another family. Would assembled Europe, if it had to judge the King of Saxony, be less just than Charles V. t and will , the Powers assembled foe the re.establish ment of Europe choose the Guyernment of Charles V. for their model ? In all undertakings, the .conae• quences should be considered. To act as if conquest alone gave a right to govern, would be to annihilate The public law of Europe, and give up this part of the world to the exclusive dominion of arbitrary .power aod violence. To pretend to judge a Sove figs, would be declaring all revolutions legal—to . treat him as one condemned, while he neither is nor raft be judged, would be trampling under foot the first principles of natural law and reason itself. And now, in respect of policy, who shall benefit by the in tended disposal of Saxony t Prussia, perhaps. But two millions of sublects. , who perhaps after the lapvi of a century will not love the new family that govern* theth, who aill feel Oerhgelves oppressed, and deem e Mean's of throwing off this oppression la:vettl, would vr be to Prussia a constant subject of uneasiness, of apprehension, and of danger. his willed to stem}. then this kingdomond l it,would in fact be weakened. " And has then Prussia every where the right to, take possession of its neighbours' property ? Is the protectioti . lorgotten Which liafforded to Germany by its negotiations at Basle, at Rastadt, at Ratishon, and lastly, in 1805, at Vienna ? Or shall Gcrinany pro. fit ? If you wish to learn its real advantage, listen 'to its loudly-expressed wishes. Princes of Ger many surely do not mistake what they ought to wish or to fear. But all of them, with one single excep tion, declare that Germany is undone it Saxony should fall! Nothing augurs so strongly against the incorporation of Saxony with Prussia as the political situation of Germany. A thousand fire: are here glimmering under the ashes. •How easily this union become the spark which would kiddie all into a dame? In such a case would France remain an idle spectator of those intestine divisions ?—would it not seek to profit by them I—and what German can wish this ? Shall England be benefited ? But what would that country gain, which above all others, wants an 'extensive market, if one of the first German com- Manua cities, the seat of one of the greatest lairs in • Europe, hitherto subjeccto a Prince with whom Eng land nev,r could have any misunderstanding, should betome subject to a power with whom it is by no means sure to be always at peace? As another ground for the union of Saxony with Prussia, it is al leged that the latter must be a bulwark against Raissiit The Sovereigns of the two States are so intimately connect:d, that as long as they live neither wilt have any taing to fear from the other. This allegation then refers to a remote fliturity. • But what would those who are such zealous advocates for the union •say, if they should live to see Prussia united with, Russia, to obtain an extension of dominion in Ger many which they would have facilitated ; and Itustia, aided by Prussia, in her projects against the Ottonian Empire ? 44 And yet this is possible, nay probable ; for it lies in the natural course of things. " The repose rd. the safety of Germany depend on the friendship of Austria and Prussia. But the fate intended for Silway would be an infallible means of awaking the jealousy between those two Powers, which lasted till the misfortunes of the Prussian Monarchy, which these misfortunes have indeed interrupted, but perhaps not extinguished. Thus the proposed disposal of Saxony wculd be directly contrary to the object designed to be attained by it, and from one evil a series of evils would be produced. Truly injustice is a treacherims foundation, on which the political world can build but to its destruction." ST. DOMINGO. We select the following luminous article on the present state of this Island from the last Number of the Ansbifflu of M. Nu. rm. It displays that extensive knowledge of the subject and that energy of language for which this •eteran champion in the cause of huma nity, has been so long and so eminently distinguished ; • " Of all the problems," says this enlightened ad vocate for the abolition of slavery and tyranny, " which the restoration of the Bourbons presented for solution, that of the reconciliation of France with her ancient colony of St. Domingo was certainly that which presented most difficulties, from the nature of the population of that island, the terrible catastrophes which have visited it, its pestiferous climate, and its distance ftom Europe 1 The Allied Sovereigns hav ing entered Parts as conquerors, notwithstanding the assertions to the contrary of humiliated national pride, 'instead of giving themselves up to legitimate reprisals, may there have dictated laws, enforced tranquillity, and laid down limits to the divergent interests and varied pretensions of the conquered people. The King may have confirmed these primary restorative bases by the maintenance and confirmation of all in 'the ranks, the honours and possessions which they then held. The modifications which hitt since been superinduced upon those fundamental bases have consolidated, and not shaken the edifice of the Resto ration. Thus every thing presages that the opening year, as it proceeds, will set its seal upon .the cordial union of all Frenchmen, by those reciprocal sacrifices which all parties seem disposed'to make. 44 But this cAnnot be the case with the Colony of St. Domingo. There were no Cossacks and no Lancers on the Boulevards of the Cape and of Port au Prince to give an impulse to the cry of Vive Levis' XVII!. and to the elevation of the white cockade; and although the old Colonists at home already in imagination saw Christophe retiring quietly with his; family to La Tortue and Pttion to Gonaives, it will not be quite so easy to unrobe those two Chiefs, as it was to Send the Child of Destiny to ;he Island of Elba. Tt #rowslid • with - *tory tai. daft: ft Ist**. and twice the conquerors of the faanci, a ft er baring successively expelled from it the -Enersh and tht French, the Haytians were consolidated in the pos. session of the country : they have fortified all its vul. nerable points, they have erected citaddirdeaned im. pregualile, they have firmed constitud,ons for them selves, they exist as two separate bodies politic, 111111- ously organized, but entirely independent of each other for eleven years they have been accustomed to see in their harbours a numerous influx of merchants from all parts of the world, and Great Britain alone annually exchanging twelve hundred thousand pounds %co: th of her merchandize for twenty-five millions of pounds of coffee, four hundred thousand bags of cot ton, from five to ay millions of pounds of sugar, and much precious woods, thus employing from 60 to 80 British vessels ! .

K The Ministry of the Marine and the Colonies was at that time entrusted to an old man, whose great reputation for integrity did not save him from the reproach of having been always the most con fused and awkward man who ever existed, and who was besides one of those Colonists who cherished the most inveterate prejudices against the Blacks, and who was the most violent opponent of all the conces• sions which it was necessary to make to them. " M. Malouetfound that some men, who had served the King abroad had not served the State; that this last honour was the exclusive decoration of the varlets of office, who then swarmed in Pans, in consequence of the overthrow of Bonaparte's Government ; and the ci-devant Maritime Prefectof Antwerp dispatched, in order to seduce of intimidate the Haytans, a depu tation, consisting of a man, now accused of having been a Member of the Committees of public safety, under Robespierre, and of a Spaniard, also accuses" of infidelity to his lawful Sovereign. 44 These two men, to whom a Merchant Ras lidded by way of Secretary, set sail from London for Ja maica, charged to speak in the name of the King, but without any powers from the King t and merely ' lonsished.with secret instructions from X. Malone, and some Members of the Colonial Committee. ii , It would have beet: impossible to have qualified any wretches better for compromising the name of the King, and at the same time for obtaining the recep tion due to impostors, or perhaps even the punishment of spies. " The issue of this splendid mission has been such as might have been expected, and precisely such es the writer of this article (M. Peltier) told M. Ma louet that it would be. The Haytians were iridignan at seeing a man present himself in the ROM 01 / 100116 1 XVIII. and yet not having any powers to dr/, awl enraged to hear a whole population which bp treate as revolted :loves, menaced with total annildtatioo l a, he had been advised at Paris in the Pamphlet: pat fished before he set out.
