FRANCE. PARIS, JUNE so. It is alTerted that the King and %teen of Holland will leave Paris to morrow, with the two Royal Princes, their Cons, and the whole of the Houfehold. 111. Marbel, the Idotanill, it is laid, is alfu to make one of their retinue. Jona B.—(From the lfonittur.) " The difputes between RutEa and Auntie are amicably adjulled, and the Mouths of the Cattaro are evacuated by the Ruffian troops. a M. d'Oubril, who is Cent to Paris by his MajeC ty the Emperor of Ruffia, brought orders with bin to this effeft, which he communicated to M. Rain mowfky. the Ruffian Ambaffador at Vienna. who ins mediately forwarded them, in order that the place fhould be evacuated without lots of time. " In confequence of this aufpicious intelligence. the French troops will immediately evacuate Ger many, the fortrefs of Brannan will be reffored to the Außrians, and the Treaty of Prefburgh literally fulfilled. " If the affairs of the Continent take a favourable direBion, it will not be for the want of any exertion on the part of England to prevent it. She has done every thing in her power to throw all again into con fufion. Who does not, in fait, fee revealed the pO. hey of England ? to low difeord and difgnict among the powers of the Continent ; to play the tyrant upon the ocean, in order that the may carry on her com mercial monopoly at pleafure. This is the inceffant objelt of there eternal enemies of nations. They know the value of the pound of blood of every nation in Europe." The Manikirr of the fame day all. contains the following Note upon that paffage of Mr. Fox's fpeech of May 30. wherein he expreffed his opinion, that &fluid a favourable opportunity occur, he would net objet to rick a part of our military force in recovering for Europe what bad been 101 l in the UR campaign. " This paffage in Mr. Fox's fpeech is really extra ordinary. What does he mean by ailing offenfively on the Continent? What war is there on the Coots nent ? Who are the Allies of England in this war ? Is it ?raffia But if we rightly read the declaratiod of England. Ilse has ordered the Prufßan veffels to be detained, and in that we cannot recognize a flip*. lation of alliance. Is it Anftria ? But before we can fuppofe Mr. Fox thinks fo, we mutt let him down as ignorant of the Treaty of Prefburg. Is it Ruffia ? We mall alto fipple Mr. Foe does not know that which is known to almoft all Europe at this day.— Let him be well pet &tided that the Court of Sr. Pc terfhargh does not know what the herfelf has to tear from England on the leas and in the Eall ; and that fhe is ignorant that the affront which has been offer ed to her Anshaffador in China, has been produced by the intrigues of tie Ee dim Fallory. We mull fuppnfe, in fall, that Mr. Fox is ignorant that the Mouths of the Cattaro have been reßored to Außria, that Brannan is in confermence rellored to the Ens. peror of Germany, and that the Grand Army, in the cootie of a few weeks, will be united at Paris for the fetes which were intended to take place in the month of May. It is true, that the intrigues of the Englifh retarded thefe fetes three months ; but it would be eafy for us to prove, that the power of France has been inereafed by the delay, and that her (yam has been confolidated. It is thus that the efforts of Eng land always torn to our advantage. If Ore will only make peace when the (hall have recovered all that the has loft on the Continent, which probably means when the (ball have effeted the re-eßabliihment of the Stadtholderi in Holland, of Außrian Belgium, of the Doges at Venice and Genoa, and of her viftim at Naples, this declara tion is by no means confoling for the creditors of the Englifh debt. Mr. Windham himfelf, excellent an of. Seer as he is, knows that it will require twenty cam paigns to fucceed to this extent ; and the re-ella- blifhment of the Princes who owe their fall to no thing die than England, does not offer a very encou raging profpea to the new allies who wt, u ld engage in this fourth coalition. " But, if we are to believe there Orators, their new military fyllern is to change every thing. What' nonfenfe I At no period have armies purely Englith ever rendered themfelves crinfpicnons on the Conti nent. Thus the troops of the Black Prince were compoled of Bretons, Garcons, Normans. Charles the Bad, the Dukes of Burgundy, the great Feuda tories who betrayed their Prince, produced the Cue eefs of England. Thus the armies of Marlborough eernfißed of Dutch and Germans, and only a (mall number of Englifh. It is true that the Duke of York commanded an army wholly Enght(h, when he aps peered in our days before Dunkirk ; but we know the refute of the battle of Hondfcoote. It is true, that this fame Prince commanded an army entirely Englith, when he landed in Holland; but the retreat of Alkmaar will not be compared with that of the Ten Thoufand. It is true, that more lately alfo, and in the lint war, the Englith landed in Naples, hut they only appeared there to overturn the throne; and after having thus deßroyed it, they did not honour its fall with A drop of their blood. "They have alto appeared in Hanover; but here their triumphs were limited ro the power of re env barking—an advantage which they owed fold y to the King of Pi uffia, that Prince whom they treat at this moment with fo little confideration. " Should it even be true, that England had eon fiderable armies in the time of Louis X IV. arid XV. we are to draw ne conclufion from that refpetimg her aeltsal militery powers, She had not then the great extent of polfellions which now belong to her. Were her army as great as it has been, it would be atinihileed by the ellablifhment, which there detach. snots require. Thus, the is obliged to keep forty regiments in the L if). Indies, ten in the Well, two at Malta, two at Gibraltar, &c. A nation of.nine millions of pc-plc, which before it can have a man for its own defence, is obliged to fend fifty regiments to the East and W,ll Indies; to oppofe the mare In dian population, the negroes, the Canadians, addthe yellow fever, can never be a military power in:Eu rope ; and it is in tittle circurnflances that EnNland has 101 l twenty-five thoufand Hanoverian (soldiers— a lois which the will never repair. The Eoglifh are langliiiig at the Princes of Europe, when they (up. pole that Govcrnmentrare weak enough not to make dude cAlcul.t.i , ,ns; and not •0 Ice that a nation, which bas occattoo for fifty regiwnts to defend its colonies, and an hundred and Ur thoufand failc:s tr protect its commerce and maint on Its tuictdrons, o ;erma ble of any effort in Cast iiie mai a11...,-. &fides. theft fine fpeeches of T.. gland, ss hen the iffie , to !educe Cabinets and form coalitions, have !lever been pith fied by fails. Let ti , fecal to oti, recolleaion *slut Miniflers did at the time of the firfl coalition. Inflead of employing thefe means, which appear fo powerful and formidable in the mouths of their fpeakets, or their emiffaries, the Englith attacked Sr. Domingo, Porto Rico, Goadaloupe, Martinique, and fumed to have no other anxiety than to plunder the commerce of their friends, as well as their enemies. In the fe cond coalition they went to Egypt, in place of fight ing with their allies on the plains of St. Domingo.— In the third, they went to the Cape of Good Hops, inflead of throwing ten thoufand men more into the Kingdom of Naples ; and when England :Ord thus, no one can fay that the ;stied ill, for the could not aft otherwife. As the is obliged to pay cnnfiderable rums to her allies, the has no other means of doing it than by plundering the trade of other powers. " The Englith nation is brave ; but it cannot be denied that the French nati ,, n has alto its warlike bent. The armies of thole two countiies moil be in proportion to their relpeaive populations ; and upon this bafis it is clear, that the En,glith army can only be to the French army in the proportion of one to three. Betides, to preferve this pro?ortion it would be necefftry that England fhoult: abandon 114 idea of keeping up fifty regiments in both the Indies, and :e -duce, by one half, the hundred and fifty thoufand (-filers who are on board her fleets. But with all Mr. Fox's eloquence, he will find it difficult to per fuade the Bank, the India Company, and the Chan cellor of the Exchequer, that this reduaion of military force is a good calculation." FROM THE FRENCH AND DUTCH PAPERS. Hawn, Juan to.—Yefierday MelTrs.Verhuel and Van Styrum returned hither from Paris. The other Deputies will that tly follow ; and our new Sovereign is alfo expeeted in the comic of a very few days. His Excellency M.
