PAttla, MAY 2% As soon as we coin - obtain any particulars the stipulations of Our pending Treaty of ru ng shall hasten to communicateithent to oar readers. We were assumed yesterday, that we should not only reco ver Our colonies, and all our ancient soil, but that there would be ceded to us, besides, for our conveni ence, seireral portions of territory beyond our ancient limits. These are certainly not the conditions which e:te were in the habit of commanding under the Fe ceding Government. War was not then confined to 'a state of hostility—its effects were extended to a pee riod of peace. Neither was is peace _that we were destined to enjoy, if that Government had continued- The Allied Powers had already demanded (and the condition was accepted), the restitution of all the sums which had been imposed upon foreign nations; and which, according to the different estimates delivered, amounted to 18tX) millions of francs. They likewise demanded all the monuments. of the arts which had been carriedaway ; and, as a pledge for the due per formance of our stipulations, the.occupation of three of nor principal garrisons. It is certainly a desirable object, in the deplorable situation into which we have been thrown, to be able to recover our colonies, and' all that belonged to ancient : France. Those who thay be disposed to lament,, - that they do not recognise in the new treaty the glory of the treaties of Luneville, of Vienna, and Presburg, ought to consider, that thn., primary object of a treaty of peace is to obtain peace. What formerly passed by this name was really hose tility ; it consisted of violent stipulations, which weak ness apcepted from exhaustion, and in which both par ties speculated upon the speedy resumption of hosti lities. l'he vanquished was occupied from the com mencement of the truce in repairing his losses, and the conqueror in extending and securing his conquests. Those who were then in a situation of marking the progress of the negotiations, could not fail to observe the indifference with which they were followed up. While the negociations at Amiens were depending the First Consul made an attempt opestiseir..Tint event; which in other times. arnonkl•lfave:thoantnnlk EUrope into j anspe, ‘ Wifigaegte abject Of note on the part of the ment. The same • • athy which the.contraeting parties discovered in -. ring the conditions of peace, they urged in the., - sequel as arguments in extenuation or in institicaiiona of the infractions of them. Great Britain charged us; with fitting out expeditions-in our ports, where • were no armaments. During that period of convul sion, both manitestries and treaties were become , objects of such indifference, that no one paid the least attention to them. It was the general opinion that there wls in fact no peace, though some were pleased to apply this term to a few moments of .trge and relaxation.—Jorrnal des Debuts, Alai 25: . • , MAY Be. ' . In speaking yesterday of the peace, and of what may be supposed to be its conditions, we had not for. grater: that we were reproached by another journal for ascribing too little importance up wh.a have been considered as the Natural limit: of France. We are fat from denying that a certain boundarx % well defined by rivers, seas, and mountains, may be considered es an advantage, .and therefore the object of reasonable wishes: but surely this is not an advantage to over. -balance every other consideration. Let us suppose, for instance, that Belgium is again to revert to Aus tria ; that the three Electorates are to belong to their ancittit Sovtreigns ; we ask, whether, because 'these' countries are included within a certain boundary pre sented by the idea of natural limits, it is incumbent on France to exert all her strength to tear them from their legitimate possessors, and thus do violence to the habits of a .people, our neighbours by post. tion, but'really separated by manners, laws, interests, and language ?
