Tte attendees(' politicians is divided between the erliteeeti neva from England and that which i. ex-, pelted from Naples. On the one hand, we would ' hie; believe that the new Milliners of England, faith.l ' fel to the principles which feveral of them have often' , profered s will frankly renounce the plan of over., l l throwing Europe, and will introduce into pacific ne iodations as much aaivity aad zeal as their predecef - iwr ukd in fpreading every where the miferies and inifichief'of war. But that hope is at lealt doubtful . to thole who are well acquainted with the iteadinefs and chars ler of the Englifh Government.—Gazette l " frame; • Nothing appears to indifpofe the Englifh writers e l itrho (4ported the late Miniflers more than the con sine of the King of Pruffia„ which they eharatterize as extremely Orange.

But, without ithmicieming the' events that are preparing, we may lAyk is defirable that that petty Hate Ihould be le- o perated from the Englifh Power, becaufe fuch a usefare would enfure the tranquillity of Hanover, ge'of Europe, and perhaps tht welfare of heifelf. gh the intelligence publifbed at London, with raped to pacific propofitions, has not yet any official charader, nor even an authentic guarantee, it forms neeertheteft the ftibjelt of general converfation and apolitical (peculation.

Gentlemen, the Deputies from the Departments to the Leer lthe Body--Oentlemen, the Tribunes, and Members of my Council of State— " Since your laft Sefton, the greateft part of Eu rope has entered into a coalition with England. My armies have never ceafed to conquer, excepting when I ordered them to combat no longer. I have avenged the rights of the feeble States, oppreffed by the ftrong. My allies base increafed in power, and in confequeoce. My enemies have been humbled and Confounded--the Route of Naples has irrecoverably loft its Crown—the whole of the peninfula of Italy forms a part of the great empire. I, as supreme head, have guaranteed the Sovereign, and the Cow Ilitutions that govern the different departments. " Ruffle only owes the return of the wreck of her army to the advantages of the capitulation which I granted it. Able to have overturned the Imperial 'hrone of Außria,l have re•ellablifhed it.. The *endue of the Cabinet of Vienna will be filch as Iva present Merit" from tvproathimg au for tus, want of fore *hi-4 have yielded an entire confidence to the pro-1 lullations which have been made to me by its Sove reign. Betides, the high deftinies of my Crown do Ist depend upon the fentiments and difputitions of ?oreign Courts. My people will always fupport my 'j'hrctne against all the efforts of hatred and jealousy sacrifice will be painful to them to fecure that fit intereft of the country. " Bred in camps, and in camps that have always been triumphant, I ought to acknowledge that, in the late events, my soldiers have exceeded my expec- Itations. It is pleafant alfo for me to declare, that my people have alfo fulfilled the extent of their duties.— In the heart of Moravia, I never ceafed for an in. 'fiant to experience the effeas of their love and' en thufiafm. Never have they given me any marks of their attachment, which have penetrated my heart with (wetter emotions. " Frenchmen I I have not been deceived in my hopes. Your lo►e, more than the extent and riches of your territory, contlitute my glory. Magiftrates, Clergy, Citizens, all have Brawn themfelves worthy of the high destinies of that admirable France, which for two ages pall has been the °Nett of the leagues and the jealoufies of its neighbours. " My Miniller of the Interior will inform you of the events which have taken place in the courfe of the year. My Council of State will lay before you plans of laws to ameliorate the different branches of the Adminiltration. My Minifters of Finance, and of the Public 'l'reafury, will lay before you the ac counts which they have prefented to me. You will perceive by them the profperous (fate of our finances. Since my return, 1 have been inceffantly occupied in giving to the Adminillration that (piing and allivity which give life to the extremities of this vast empire. My people will have no new burdens to bear, but new plans will be propofed to you refpeeting the fyfiern of the finances, the bale► of which were eftablilbed year. I intend to diminifh the immediate impofitions which hear upon the territory alone, and to replace a part of there charges by indireel duties. Through the elements we have loft Tome !hips, af. ter an engagement imprudently undertaken. tcan not praife too much the greatnefs of foul, and the at tachment which the King of Spain has (hewn in thefe cireumilances for the common caule. / wj/ll for Prate with England. On my part, it (ball never k retarded for a moment. I flail always be ready to conclude it, is adopting for is: baits the conditions of the Treaty of Amiss,. Gentlemen, Deputies to the Legitlative Body, re 'the attachment you have (hewn to me, the manner in which you have feconded me in the late fittings, leave me no doubt of your atlidanee. Nothing Ilan be propofcd to you, hut that which is neceffary to guarantee the glory and fafet y of my people." Having concluded his fpeck.h, the Emperor rote, And the procalion returned to hi.

The Em petor, nit quitting his apartment., was condo/led to tle outer door by the deputatilk of the Legiflrive Ilvdy, which had received him on hi. entrance, from whence he returned to his carriage, and proceeded back to the Thuilleries in the fame order which the procernun had previoufly obferved.

RUSSIA. I BT. PETERSBUROH STATE GAZETTE, FEBRUARTis, (OLD STYLE.) • I OFFICIAL ACCOUNT OF THE Or AUSTOILITZ. " TAOFPAU, JAN. 25.—The termination of the battle of Auks*litz, as to the relish of it, is fo well known that it is Amon impoffible to conceive hope France. or any other power, could communicate to the public an account of it, the falfehood of which cotfld only be equalled by ire exaggeration. En rope, and particularly the Ruffian nation, has a right to expca a true Ilatement of the whole of this tranf adtion. Such a ttatement has been hitherto with held from no other motive but the love of troth, and a nrong defire of invefligating properly what is to tranfpite before the public. Meanwhile, it is need fary to point out and dete& Come &Hides in the French bulletins, in the 3oth in particular. " The French General Savory converted only wish two Gentlemen of the Imperial Suite. and one Field Adjutant, all three waiting there. either' with reports fur the Emperor, or with inftruftions which they were to carry to their refpeitive Commanders. "The Head of the French Nation was difpleafed-with fome words that efcaped Prince Dolgorucky. He thould have recolle&ed that Ruffians arc nut the peo ple who eflegm,his proteaion as a favour. " The Combined Armies, according to the French Bulletins. confined of 205,000 men, viz. $o ono Ruffians, and 85,t00 Mariam s in confequence of which the. French army was confiderably weaker in numbers. If fo, why was it then that the amount of it had hot been noted ? Independent of the Re feree. which is raid to have contained a whole army, the force of the enemy confined of four grand divi (ions, each 23,000 Prong (ao,ooo infantry; and goon cavalry), -commanded by one Martha! and two Generals of Divifton. The Combined Armies, contrary to what was reported, confined only of so,ooo Ruffians, and about 57,000 Aullrians. But this inferiority in numbers was the lead difadvantage under which the Ruffian army was labouring at the time. Scarcity of provifions was fo great, that the troops, for two days previonfly to the engagement, remained almoft without food. The honks were fo reduced from want, that they had not ftrength to draw the artillery, in confequence of which its partial affirm, during the engagement, proceeded only from thole places where it had been originally fixed. The fame fcarcity of provifions and forage making it impoffible to continue any longer in the environs of Ohnutz, or take another pofition by falling back, it refolved at length to prepare for battle, the happy refult of which could only be expefted from the bra very of its troops. " The Ruffian Imperial Guard, which was re ported to have loft all its nandards, has preferved them to this time, and fo far from lofing any, has taken one from the enemy. " The Combined Armies, according to the French account, 101 l fifteen thoufand in killed, and twenty thoufand in prifoners. It would be as well to have told us, whether the twenty thoufand men, Paid to have been drowned, are included in this account ! Notwithflanding the forced marches--difeaft, occa fioned by want and fatigue of war, and the (tetra' engagements that have taken place on the Inn, and in Moravia—feventeen thoufandmen is the total lots of the Ruffian army. If it were really fo great as has been (Fated in the bulletins, why did not the ene my profit by their viflory, and puffin the vanquithed army, as was Witty reported in one of the bulletins? The army fo prodigioufly beaten was neither feint. rated by suountains nor livers I but remained on the field of battle until the next morning. The armill;ce like wile, could not prevent the purfuit, for it 'was concluded only with the Emperor of Autiria, at whole option the troops commenced their march I back, and without fullaining the finallett injury— though, from the French flatement, the enemy *ere Paid to have been purfuing the vanquinte4 even' while the communication for fettling the prelimina• ries was carried on between the two powers. In or der to enhance the glory of the day, it was (aid that the French Guard (corps of referee) was not even brought into aelion ; this is refuted in the very fame bulletin, where it is slated, that a French battalion being defeated by the Ruffian Guard, Bonaparte dif patched to the fpot Marlhal Beffier—in confequence of which " the Imperial Guards on both fides enter ed immediately into engagement." " Such are the grofs falfehoods ,with which the French bulletins are filled, and which, with as great abfurdity.as ill grace,they endeavour to impale upon the public by concomitant tales of terror—of horrible uproar, occationed by two hundred thoutand men arid two hundred cannons I What advantage can a great warrior derive from fuch falfehoods ? Is there any neceffity that Bonaparte lhould employ thefe means for increafing his military reputation, which no one is defirous ro deprive him of ?" Oi.stu rz, JAN. 19.—The latell accounts from Au lliiA Nate the number of the French in the hofpitals at fourteen Omni - and men. When we add to thefe the ii c or eight thou fand that fell in the battle of Antler lit z, it will prove, that this day, which, according to the French accounts, cult them to fm.ill a num ber of men, WAS truly fanguinary, and mull, of courfe, hare been an advantage dearly pirchafed by Bonaparte. • GERAfAIir.
