The Allies * by their first •roposals,had required 'a cession of territory, into , i"g Conde , PhiPPMalts -Marienbourg, Giver, Saar-Louis, Landau, anti the forts of :wiz and L'Etluse, the demolition of the worts of :i;►i,~gueo, the payment of 800 millions of francs, nJ the occupation, of the strong places of the Nor hem and Noeslatastern frontier by an allied army f 150,000 men.• 'The French Ministers agreed to ccept the general basei of territorial cession beyond I ' :he limits of ancient France, 'payment of indemnity, nd provisional occupation of the frontiers for a fixed 'inse; but they strongly contested the specific terms • :emanded, as founded on the principle of conquest. —The Allied Miniatehr tery properly observe, that they do, not groinUtheit proposals on any right of .onquest ; that on the -contrary, they have studiously .voided any thing that might lead to a discussion of :hat right. The Allied Courts, both in war and in' , peace, have laboured to consolidate the royal autho it, in France, as a means of preventing the repetition if those miseries under which she and all the neigh. pouring countries have so long groaned. Upon this ..)rinciple it is, and not upon a right of conquest, which, it it exists, they do net desire to enforce, that hey urge those - demands which are necessary to tran luilliae and secure Europe in general. A Dutch Mail arrived this morning. The pro loosed marriage of the young Prince of Orange to a .ister of the Emperor of Russia - hts been officially .iotifieJ to the 4tates.GmLrel of the Nsthrtlands. The tavages of the late storm 4 have not been con .kined to the British shores : the coasts of Holland and she North of Germany are also strewed with wrecks.

From Paris to our frontiers the Allied troops are all in motion; the reads are covered with troops of ' all arms, artillery, and an endless train of baggage, &c. &c. kteparations are Making at Chambray, to rczeive, before the end of the month, the head-quar ters of the Duke of Wellington.

Josephine hail got them pictures hung up at Malmaison, where Cassel Artists !save seen them often enough with tor ;awful hearts. Nobody thought it possible they raid be kept bad, yet as it is generally affirmed and as public Papers state from Paris, the Prussians hare detained them ) it is not possibie to imagine any eight wtl4tetkri them Pictures are the acknowledged property of the Elector; every friend of the arts tense that `idler to the Cassel Gallery, they Urn fregtopoor copied and even engraved from thet;i.

Besides, all might have been reconciled in the most laudable manner that is (since Prince Eugene wished to sell them) to buy them for Russia, and thin restore them to the owner. Our public prints. farther affirm this has been only half done, the Ruisian Court has bought these paintings for half a million of franci—thee four Claude's alone arc worth more : but the seller might be contented with this price, because he had no right to any thing. We hope that the. Emperor, when he is informed of the true state of the case, will not hesitate to have the property of the Elector restored to him : should this however not happen, we shall have to relate the unvarnished truth, that the rights of a German Elec tor, whose house is distinguished in the remotest pe riod of the history of Germany, have been infringed in order to please one of Napoleon's Princes. but all the Hessians, nay, even all Germans who are sensible of the beauty of these works, are hurt. These pictures were accessible to foreigners and natives, and almost always in the painting room. Hesse Cassel has sent forth numerous.artists; here in Cassel, some of very great merit are.living at this moment. Particular encouragement has attracted others to different parts of Germany, and one of the first landscape painters now at Rome is a native of Cassel. Add to this, that the Electoral Princess herself cultivates the art with much taktit, and tries to protect it as much as possible.

DEXTH OF THE DUKE OF NORTJLK. Saturday morning, at nine o'clock, in his 70th year, after an illness of some n: , uths continuance, which he bore with the tireatest fortitude and resig nation, died at his house in St. James's-square, the Most Noble Citation Flowann, Duke of NoRFoLK, Earl Marshal and Hereditary Marshal of England, Earl of Arundel and Surrey, Baron Fitz-Alan, Mut slavers, Clun, and Oswaldestre ; Premier Peer and Chief of the Noble Family of Howard ; Lord Lieu tenant and Custos Rotnlorurn of the County of Sus sex, and Colonel of its Militia ; High Steward of the Cities of Gloucester and Hereford, and President of the Society for the Encouragement of Arts and Ma nufactures, F.R.S. and F.A.S. &c. &c. His Grace is succeeded in his titles, hereditary ho nours, and principal estates, by litzuziaap EDWARD HoWARD, Esq. of Fornham, in the county of Suffolk. The late Duke was a desceulant, in the fourth de gree, him CHARLES HOWARD, the fourth son of HENRY FREDERICK HOWARD, Ear) of ARUNDEL, who lived in the reign of CHARLES I. Mr. Howann de. scends, in the same degree, from Bentraen,a younger son of that Earl, who was the great grandson of THONAS HOWARD, Duke of NORFOLK, beheaded and attainted on account of Many, Queen of Scots, in the feign of Queen EI.IZASETH. The Dukedom of Nor folk, and other henours, were restored to the family by the reversal o' that attainder in the year 1661. The late Duke of NORFOLK (only son of the Duke Cuant.r.s). was born 18th of March, 1740.. He was twice married; first to Miss MARIAN CtiPTINGER, of Ballyvolane, in Irelan 1, an heiress, who died without leaving issue, 28th gay, 1768 ; and, secondly. to the Hon. FRANCES SOUDAIWIRE, ai...) an heiress, thu only daughter and heir of JAttus Viscpunt SEFDA• HORS., by whom" he had nq issue. His Grace, who assumed the titled Earl of &RITE during his lather's life time, was educated partly at home under a private tutor, and partly in France ; he, however, renounced the errors of the Church of Rome," obtained a seat in Parliament, and took an active part, in conjunction with the late Mr. Fox, who then beaded the Opposition, against the American war. In 1788 he wits appointed a Lord of the Treasury, when the Duke of PORTLAND wag first Commissioner and Lord J. CAVENDISH Chancellor of the Exche quer. in the following year the University of Oxford was pleased to create him Doctor of Civil Law, and be succeeded to the family honours and estates in August, 1786. In consequence of a certain pan of the Noble Duke': political conduct in an early prriod of the revolu lionary war, iti; Majesty's then Government deemed it proper to remove his Grace from the Lieutenancy of the West Riding of Yorkshire, and from the com mand of that corps of Militia; but he was appointed to the Lieutenancy of Sussex, and the Coloitelcy of the Susses Militis, oct the demise of the late Duke of RIIMOND, in 1800. The parliamentary conduct of the late Duke of Nsperout, since his accession to the Peerage, has been that of a perfectly independent Senator; though ge nerally leaning to the politics of the Opposition, he supported his lvlansves Government on every im portant question where he thought that its conduct was deserving of approbation. HO was uniterruly the strenuous advocate of a pacific system. The Duke of Nonyout possessed a plurality of some of the finest country seats in the kingdom ; first, the ancient baronial residence of the HilWAttn family, Arundel Castle, by tenure of which the girldom of Arundel is conferred. This noble gothic mansion has been of late years much re-edified and embel lished, and was, a very few months since, the scene of some princely entertainments, in which the gor geous exuberance of true old English hospitality was chastened and refined by the graces of modern ele gance. Secondly, the magnificent modern structure of Worksop Mador House, in the county of Notting ham, which is erected in the midst of as extensive and beautifully, picturesque park, •and to which it attached upwards of one thousand acres of wood land, mostly planted by the late Duke. Thirdly, the venerable residence of the family of SCUDS. Kong, Holme Lacy, in Herefordshire, which contains a valuable selection of the works of VANDYKI, JANSEII, and jimmy, and is enriched with the entiisite car vings of GIBBONS. This mansion and property, in' which the Duchess of NO/WOLK lone lived 111 a stain of seclusion, in consequence of occasional mental de. rangement, reverts, we believe, to another line. Be sides these, his Grace was proprietor of the beautiful Gothic villa, Graystoke Castle, in the centre of the tbmantie lake scenery in Cumberland ; and of Shef field Manor, a very ancient seat, fimed in historic tote, which had been for some yews very little fre quented by his Grace. augur, the pugilist, died a few dap ego, in con sequence of the severe blows he received front Dee. tap at the Curragh of gilds:ea "-MAW EAW#IO.OO.IL • MAILS.
