The Duke of Wellington will then, about the Web instant, set out for Ait.le. Chapelle, sad remain there till the termination of the couferences. As son as they are concluded, the departing review of the Allied Army will take piece, and then every contingent will be put in route to return to their bosses. The order of march is al. ready designated, viz. the Prus,ian corps d'armee will march through the Greed Duchy of Lusemhurg, and the territory of Trete, ; the Russian cavalry, after passing Ike Rhine, will _traverse Germany to proceed to Poland; the Russiao, infantry and artil. . lery will embark at Dutikiik. The English troops will march successively to Wigs lend Boulogne, where they will embark ; before their departure, they will sell the horses, and all that „part of the stain which has become useless to them. Ihe Salon corps will take the shortest road to the Rhine; the Danish and Hanoverian troops will pass throigh Belgiem. At Sedan, the principal equipages of the Prussian corps are ordered to retrogride to the Rhine. At Cambray the officers of the English Royal Guards are disposing of their horse?, and every thing its the cantonments announces the preparations for dew. tore. The french Colonel of Engineers Hendren, and the Chef de Battalion Moulin, in concert with several English Officers of Engineers, are employed in inspecting the places occupied, in order to verify 'Me Ohl*, previous to their being surrendered to the, French Aetborities.

The Paris Papers to the 14th inst. have been re ceived.

The heavy baggage of the Prussian corps at Sedan has been ordered to retro: 'grade epos the Rhine; and at Cambray, the 08icers of the English Guards are represented se anxious to dispose 41 their horses. In the affair of 6eneral , ',CAttslas. Iwo more witnesses were elamit\ed Thursday, by M. M swan, the Judge of Information. The French 5 per Cents. left off on Thursday at . 1. 85 c. • Mails from Flanders and Hambergb have also ar rived, bat their contents are of little interest. If the accounts from Manheim can be relied upon, the People of Baden have received • very great blessing from their Government in the new Constitution, the premeigttion of which has given greet satisfaction. The privileges of Habeas Corpus, Responsibility of Public Of f icers, the equality of all classes in the presence of the Law, equality of participation in all Imposts and Taxes, and the publicity of proceedings and acts, are hailed as advantages of the highest kind, which indeed they are—advantages which we are much inclined to suspect will not be vouchsafed with equal liberality to the rest of the People of Germany by the Confederates, who impudently style them. selves the Liberators of Europe. The persons at Gottingen, Students and Professors, who ventured to ewes, opinions in favour of Representative Con stitutions, and in consequence of a hich disterhences were created by the repressing powers, bare been ponished as the instigators sod contributors to these disturbances. This is the way iu which the desire for liberal Constitutions is met in Germany by the 44 Great Power.," the " Conservators of Europe's happiness." The spirit of public liberty is not, how. ever, to be thus extinguished. A number of the Students from Gottingen are now et Berlin. They, are distinguished by wearing red pantaloons and hel mets el the same colour. Old BLecnea, it seem, is as well as his infirmities can be expected to alio*. He is pursuing his usual courses. The statement in the Courier that the affairs of Germany would be the subject of discussion and re gulation at the Congress of Ail-la-Chapelle, a ppears to have given great offence to some of site minor Courts of Germany. An article in the Stutgard Journal con. tradicts, on authority, the asslrtions of the Courier, and says, that the statements of the London writer cannot be true, as is a Circular Letter to the dif. ferent Powers of Germany, they were told not to send Envoys to Aix-la-Chapelle, as the evacuation of France by the Allied Troops was to he the only sub. fed of discussion at the Congress. 46 With respect," it is said, " to the delicacy of forms to he observed i n the now modelling of Germany, the Princes of that country have surely • right to meet that very dif.: !tient principles would be acted on front those which Ivo are accustomed to see Ragland observe to:cards Me Nabobs of India." This.is a tolerably fair hint.— The very legitimate measures pursuing at present in the Provinces of Candy, ere certainly a curious il lustration of our 'new modelling principles.

We yesterday gave the account which has been breeght from St. Helena of the sdangeroos state to which the illustrious Prisoner •pon that rock has been reduced by the cruel treatment which he has so long experienced. The poise of British feeling will not remain insensible to the distressing condition of the great Ndirocaotr, under the illiberal and inhere pitabie treatment he is esperiencing, not from "the most generous though the most constant of Ho ens. toles," but from the churlish and unfeeling jailers that have been placed over him. The retifil of Mi. O'MEARA, who hes also suffered privation and in. suit wider the despotic aethority which has been act Op at St. Helena, and whose attachment to NAPO LEON in his distress wilt honourably connect his name with the imperishable fame of the man who, even in this depth of calamity, is greater than the mightiest of his enemies and a terror to them all, has, we understand arisen qut of the circuit- , stances of NAPOLEON'S sitgation ; and 'elope it will load to a proper investigation of the charges made' against the condeet of the Governor of that island, and the justice and policy of the measures which authorise such perseverance in inhumanity. If the tranquillity of Eerepe is so firmly secured as we are boastingly told It is, by the wisdom of the great " Conservators," where can be the necessity and utility of keeping a fallen and harmless individual in a state of misery which threateos the destruction of life, and of subjecting the British Nation to the enor mous espence attendant upon his remote confinement ? We lately bad a report that the Emperor of Bus. ISA will, at the approaching Congress, insist •n the release of NAPOLEON from the barren rock which his, jailers seem resolved shall be both his prison sad hie grave.---We cannot yet believe' that Qat. •• • ,•• - - I I F.
