LONDON: MONDAY, MAY 3, 1813. -.0100.••- Paris Papers to the 30th alt. arrived in town last night, in which it wilt be seen that Dantzic is spoken of as not having surrendered, though that circum stance of itself would. be no proof of the fact. The ,whole of the French intelligence is military,and sounds a still louder note of preparation and confidence. The, au tho►ity jested in the, Prince of titramini.(rlavolnr) at. once excites our a ppreheMilaii .. .aid horror. We ie, heretot.re, expressed out fears , that the French Aso 41 take vengeance upon the 'Unhappy Hanseatics, should they (as we had no doubt they would) return aga in arms to their 111-fated soil. Though nothing ,Is said of thetcdy of PONAPACTE, yet his military -wrings are observed on their stretch. Thii will be a . 14ioroui ;led of: the Eagle.

Bat for this na ,tionii degradation, the war had terminated years and , years ago ; and . which; • if not put an end to by a 'kind of regeneration of British spirit and British ho mina, we shall war on till we have only a sword belt kft to our hacks. The mischief begins .with the Droits of aldinirally f and goes down to the Contractor for soldier's great coats! Good Heavens, that a sober being should, or could expect any -prosrerous turn to the affairs of England, while emiui•nt orzoors in Parliament defend the former pract::e, and pettNprnters in the city, are allowed ithisre4t.lity the latter, ye ter al—efrollishing !

It woold also be for the House to consider of some re gelatiim for fixing the number. of causes to be set down for hearing on each day. Adjourned till Monday. • • The coalition the most siugule, in any age ; meneement agaL iouury • . ; The policy of its then Minister was (Orli, that if it ,had been adopted by the Ministers of Great Britain, these would have raised the fortune, strength, and eminence of their country, to a pitch never before witnessed. That 'solidly sensible, but unboasting unloquacious Minister, BERNSTORFF, revolved to take no part* the reformation of other Goverments.— Ile expected that by observing a strict nOutrality,Lis country would be exempted from disturbance, and the people of it preserved from the endless miseries of war. How reasonable, how philosophical !—hut no, the haughty, the irascible, the sullen, the eloquent Mr. PITT would not let another man oq the earth, if possible, be at peace, whilst his own:despotic spirit was incapable of rest. Ile, therefore, .menaced the honest BERNSTOREF with his vengeance, if he did not join his mad crwAe against the whole French na tion. " If you do not," said the unhappy son of. the great CHATH au, 44 take part with us, we will take part against you." A portion of the sequel is before the public of England, before all Europe ; and the rest of 'it mill be known, when our crooked designs with Sweden are frustrated, which cannot toil to be the case, when it is. considered from what policy and system they have arisen, awl by what men they are to. tie , managed.—BERNSTORFF has returned to his post, and BCRNADOTTE has not yet arrived at his! !—Per/mot sat. We however belieie that our Ministers, inefficient in talent as they mar be, will have efficiency enough to set Denmark and Sweden by the ears, and this is, we apprehend, the furthest extent to which the CROWN PRINCE will go of himself : though " money makes the mare to go." After Ministers then have fairly set these two Northern Poweic to loggerheads, they will be entitled to bear the short but significant motto of Sir CIIMSTOPIIER %Yeast, as affi+c*ci by that archi tect to St. Paul's Church, when finished, viz. Cir.: cumspicc ; for they will have set all . Europe in arms or in names. For our own parts, we do not believe what the Courier has asserted of the demands of the Court of : Denmark for re-entering into its ancient alliance with Great Britain. When the discussion comes'on in Parliament, and come it must, it wiU be found to be a distortion a the truth. Much as that State has to complain of, we cannot think its demands of in ' demnification would rise to so unreasonable a pitch (for unreasonable it would be to expect)- 1. 'flat all her territories (Norway of course in cluded) should be guaranteed to her. 2. That all her Islands should be restored to her. 3. Her fleet, and a large indemnity for its capture by us—besides a large sum for what the Danes had suffered during our occupation of Zealand. , 4. The making over the Ilanse Towns to her. 5. The granting of a subsidy to her to pay the troops necessary to enable her to take possebsion of those towns / thrfne-rof whether kar followed, and that ii l lingering and reel than the ; summary inflictions of the (*fold: gg We have escribedthe danger to which the Princess of WALE has been exposed, as equal in magnitude and prosimiti to any that has deer assailed a Royal Personage,. il* female particularly, in these king °doors. Hertifhallan has been compared to hate!- Awx Boma*, in the feign of HENRY Vlll.:_but Axis BoLetw sunk under the charge brought against het'. Perhaps the case of • the Princess, afterwards Queen Erazaarnt, when the bloody MARY sought to entrap her life, on the doctrine of transub- stantiatiort., may more neatly . resemble that of the Princess of WALES than any other. The result is the same,—the preservition of the innocent : but we do most ardently challenge attention to a comparison of the different degrees .of malignity inherent in the enemies of the two Princesses. No one has beard that those of +h Princess ELIZAIMN ever attempt ed to conceal address in eluding the captious questions . - emksaries: her celebrated lin 'wet. occm • • ti ;lc place In 'the records of those =urn _ . = - tne enemies of the Princess CAROLT 'w '0" J n their diabolical design against her lift. - 4 11 ts baffled, would actually smother •the :.ich a joyful people bear of her innocence. Tl-d. l °pular Addresses on this occasion are not to ho d in the Gazette ; no, not one of ' them : and to pi,. ify such a determination in that par. ticuler instance to which we more immediately ad vert, Lord SIONOUTH, it is said, chooses to consider, the Princess of WALES as a private personage, and the City of London also (we suppose) as a private 'I I body. It is evident that such a course, justified by 1 1 such a motive, is but adding injury to injury. It is leaking a derogatory conception, which his Lord en tertains of the character and station of our fatsre (ilexes,. the foundation of an insult upon her per son : and if her Royal . highness is not protected ° from the insolence of the Home Secretary, as she has been from the malice of others, it were better that 1 she should at once lay down her dignity, and resign her right to the Crown. let it be observed, that it is only the Address of the City of .Landon, in its corporate capacity of IMayor, Aldermen, and Common Council, of which we are here advocating the right to an insertion in 1 the Gazette. Of others we say nothing, though our opinion is favourable to their admission also s when they are properly and decently expressed : but Ithe City or London can do itself justice. If no I Addresses are to be published in the London Ga ulle but such as are presented to the PRINCE ' REGENT himself, to the PRINCE REGENT the ! City of London has access ; and his' Royal High ness must receive the oral congratulations of that body of his subjects, on the frustration of the plots laid for the destruction of his wife. Much do we grieve, indeed, at the renewal of these odious: disputes ; but the Princess of Wuxi is again thrown upon the British nation for itecountenance and sup ! port, and she does not look for desertion now.- 1 Nay, such is the situation in which the Prince him-, !eel( is placed by*Lord SIDSIOUTHIS conduct, that he , • • ' must call upon his people, and more especially upon I the City of London, to address hitn, that he may troudly exhjbit himself to the siatiou free and clear . !'of any participation in that act by which his con . sort is insulted, and the testimonies of her innocence obscured. , . . . . • " Christ was the Word that spite It, " He took the bread and brake it, " And %hat Otat Word did make It, " That I believe and take it." • Our friend Coancrr has given the Whigs, and the defender of, the Whip (the Chronicle), a tremendous castigation in his last Register, arising out of theJ subject of attack •on, the • invulnerable Aldermaq' Wools.

On the topic, the endless topic of the Princess of NirAt.r.s, We were again abOut to resume the pelt, more especially with regard to the treatment her Royal Highness has met with from the presumptuous Lord SIDMOUTII. We cannot wonder at the indig nation every, lover of justice and the honour of his country feels,*iss the perusal of his letter, in answer 'to the aryleTAndoii`i questions, as to the non. insertion of its Address in the Gazette. The peu in his Lordship's hand has created mote irritation and pain, than did all the blisters in his father's throughout his whole practice. The Times, how. ever, has so completely and satisfactorily anticipated what we would have said on this contemptuous and overbearing proceeding, that we willingly adopt its reason and arguments, presuming as we do, that from a paper differing on the material subject of governmental policy its sentiments . will go further in the desired effect than even oar own.— We also feel gratified in the quotation, as it properly enforces what we ourselves recommended in the STATUNAN some time ago, viz. addressing QM PRINCE REGUIT himself. This wilt be applying to the touchstone the golden experiment wbicb the meddling, botching city tailor and contractor so araesily al luded to in his ridiculous-left-handed logical speech at the meeting of the Common Council.
