LONDON: • OAT USDA' , , A tidt/ST t 1) 1813. s 5 'l l ia bask we have to perform is of a doubly ar duoult nature; for as well as laying before the Pub. iic the true state of our multitudinous affairs in every censer of the world with which we have intercourse, 711, hsve also to counteract the base, the sinister de• signs of those of our cotemporaries who have an Interest in captivating the understandings of their readers and leading them Wray. They are in gene ral es expert as they are knavish—but as whatever Is kept up by falsehood and delusion requires an on. remitted ettootiee to prevent the development of the iniquity, so now and then the verbiage with which the columns of the slavish prints are necessarily filled, betrays , itself, and leaves an impression on thomind of the discern• ing reader, as lithe writer tool lipids pen by turns in a fit of intosicating promise, and by others when sober mason predbmihated. Instances of this nature frequently occur in the Courier, Post, ind Ot the latter to wit`:--k few days ago this.dictato- slat paipt (which of itself has half undone the coun try that has so encooraged k) lamented that there mould be no move laurels lot ciiir Commander in Stain to gath , v„ for that his enemy could never again bring such a force to oppose him, as would entitle him to an encomium should he beat him!! Now, in this very day's publication, the sapient logician, speak- At*, or rather prophetically deploring, how much butte mny be yet to do in the Peninsula, and more , 645erially if MidWert should be riiniss in seconding the eff, rts of the Noble Marquis, he says, 66 Will belmesniug XATOLEON), do men think, who may be . sahl to have almost created an army in the place of that which was stmihituted in Russia, be deficient in supply ing 'tie less sustained under SOULT, at the other extremity of Furope?" He goes on then to say, " And yet 'isr e ith this person, who is at last no mt,re than a man like ourselves, we most either most disgracefully relinquish the con. test, and acknowledge that we are a mean, incompetent, ieferior race of creatures, or we sliest resolve to face him as he faces us." Now, it the community in which we live, can be enter. tained, or think themselves informed by this zig.zag, turn about rant, under the garb of ratiocination, we can only say it deserves to be deceived. Si vu's ripely+ decipl. deripiatur." But r ow, as Willi- writer was coming to his senses, he discreetly allows that the enemy may throw more laurels in the way of our great Leader and brave a rray. And in what period has all this change been effected ? Why, in Nor days only ! Alas, our Quidnuncs are too short-sighted to see through this newspaper trick, which beats all our stage-trick out and ou►. But to be serious :—We have mentioned more than once, that our enemies are working, like mkt stipvirights at times, double tides, converting conscript , and volunteers into warriors. The chief towns in the departments of the Gera, Garonne, and Pyrenees, are full of them, from which we have bet toe much reason to apprehend the moment is fast oaching, when the people of England will be ..P:too well convinced, from undeniable proofs, of the laatiequary of conception and means in their pre sent alinibterq to carry on a War of the magnitude of .r thy in which we are unhappily engaged: a war which other and better men alight have wisely and honourably put a , end or trace to, at least; and wetted ti'l fairer and fitter opportunity to assert, andLf4ree the acknowledgment of those maritime pri9eitgles, without which we cannot remain what we kite. ,It is on this fallible, this wicked condi:let in nor presumptuous rulers, that the hostility we att• forced into is made to resemble the third and last Punic War A war, which w ip egkertilme longer, cap of wet be ended but by the total extinction of oe.eof the Btlligereuts. Here is a picture fora Briton to loehold!! Let every one deserving that appella tion think on it. Paris Papers to the 17th instant hare arrived ; but they do not affirm what we have no doubt Is the fact—the renewal of the Armistice. The Congress must take place, for NseoLrou and the Emperor of Al/nAIIA are resolved upon it, sod how can the reluctant Powers prevent it ? We say reluctant, because we know that of the two evils, vie. of treat ing and 'fighting, they are unable to sal which Is the lewd. FRANCIS, however, has shown himself a pro. fontichmtitician : he has had good advisers.; the so gutty and coolness of a BIRNSTORTIP have ani mated his Majesty's Couneile; but with an influ ence and power which theft' prototype did not possess in the contracted Court of Copenhagen. It can 'no longer be concealed, now that N.trotson and his father-in-law have maintained a good understand ing throughout the -whole histories upon the North.. ern ,tapir. The texture of this ground-work is so intimately and strongly woven, that nothing can undo k. Neither the rupture of the Armistice, nor the twilthing up of the incipient Congress, can pierce r (rATESMAN. THE through it. The new Gordian knot will keibipatikix be exhibited to the view of all Earope.*r. ; .l,4 vat feeble Ministers untie It ?
