We this, day resume our extracts from the Ham burgh paper heaught be the Heligoland mail, the arrival of which we mentioned yesterday. They state positively, that the Emperor of ACSTIMA *ill wit attend the meeting at Erfurth, ■nd that the report of a preliminary triple alliance, between Austria, Russia, and Frain*, does not deem vets-edit. Cassel is ant the only German city that lies evinced a spirit of resistalice to Frende domination. A similar disturbance has broken out in the city of Brunswick, in which the French weir wonted; but frrnh French troops have been elided in, who will art fait to inflict civet vengeance upon the loyal inhabitant*. The Illamburgh Papers are tilled with accounts of the march of troops front Ger man• to the South-West. All the roads leading from Menu int• the interior of France are covered with troops, proceeding to Spain with all possible expedi tion. Itilarshals N CY. BC4SIERE.,NIORTICII.I.assEI. MASSINA,JoraDam. and DaVOUST, are mentioned arum% the superior officers who are to have com mands tu the immense army with which o the per fidious Usurper of France" hopes to overwhelm Spain. From every part of the civilized world matter presses on our attention at the present moment, and from the inability of discussing so many subjects deserving of considcratiott.•we can only cast a sort of bird*s eye view on the pedlitical landscape. If in vsine parts it presents a gloomy asiwet. in others it is bright aad exhilirating. The Convention of Portugal dr not excite more hunailia time or ewligs nation, tiled am. prospect in the iirinh,eust plovintces of Spain awaken* hope and cou.hdence. If tho con .. sequences anticipated, or apprehended, from the interview at Erfurt, inspire alarm, the systematic preparations of Austria to meet the impending storm, cot merely by regular arnica, but by gene ral levies and appeals to the population tbmughont ull the lwreditary states, held out a rational pcctatioo, that even if ALEXANDER were to lend himself to all the rapacious projects of his Cor sican ally, they may nevertheless be tact and frus trated. Should we, after thus contemplating the principal European feature% extend our view be yond the Atlantic, tarry dine,: now seems to favour the cause of justice, loyulty,wel rids, opposed to violence, perfidy, and crime. M hide the French colonies labour wittier the severest privations, caused by the continuance of that war which their scourge and tyrant has iutlicted on hie sulijects ; all his chimerical and siefarious views upon the vast pos sessions of the Spanish Crown in America, and in the West Indies, are become abortive. The vile Adventurer, whit, after plundering Madrid, and robbing the Palaces of the Catholic Kings, is now wandering, as an obscure fugitive, among the towns and villages of Navarre, has beest universally re jected, or rather spurned, throughout the new world, by every clad of men. Neither the Arras gotiesc, nor the Asturian% can have rheas! inure unanimity and affectiou to their Sovereign, or to their country, than has betas displayed in Cuba, Purtu Rico, Cuinana, Florida, Vera Cruz, mid along the Speuish Main. Nor need we question, though we cannot yet know, that, on the shores of the Pacific Ocean. in Peru and Chili, as it'd! as at the extrenuties of Asia, in the Philippine Islands, the Dynasty of Ajaccio will be treated with con tumely mat abhorrence. Even to the Americans, and to JEFFERSON. alliance of BUN APARTF., hos friendship, and his connection, will, ae veuture to predict, produce only general dissatisfaction, disap pointment, poverty, and commercial stagnation. Already tit? bitter fruits of that einbarwt, which. though nominally general and impartial, was cal culated and intended to operate against Great Britain with far severer force than against France, have dideseil, from Boston to Sarantiali, fro:u Mas sachnsets r.wl Connecticut, dust, to Candle* and Georgia, universal al:mantel. The Aniericau Go vernment, wfh n, flu :a its secret a ish to fatour Bu s: Ar.int E., it adopted that ri4orotia mid hazardous ineasure,doubtlesa did not foresee, nor even sus peet, that in the course of a few mouths, all the Colortir. of the Spniiislt Monarchy would be, in some 'season., thrown open to England, and closed against NAPOLEON. As little does Mr. Jet . - Fr asox appear to have calculated On the vast com mercial effects that may be justly expected t..

'Flats, beyond the Atlantic, as here in Europe, all the vindictive and violent interdic tions, issued by the rage and Matbitioo of NAPO LEON, wens to hate been overturned by himself, and may finally, as well as shortly, retell upon their author. When be undertook the fla:otions and ill-concerted attempt en Spain, he eon .... itteil to hazard all his past acquisitioas, untnitelful of the mutability of fortune, and of the fate of tyrants in every age. The tnore attentively we contemplate the actual state of his own and his brother's affairs on the Ebro, the mere critical do they appear. if the Clinician mut), toasters of &lima, eau %droner ' to St. Sebastian and Fontarabia, those places must inevitably fall into their hands, unless the assailants are there met by a superior military force, from the itaterior of France. We repeat it, there are no for tresses, iliswt Mg the muse, in Biscay, Alarm or Guinuscoa. Ho possesses only three, by which lie bridles Spain—Figueres, at the entrance of the Cataloutius Pyrenees ; Morality, which coin maals Barcelona ; and Painpeluna, capital of rasa re. Vet none of these can protect or corer an army acting it, Old Castile, between Logrogno and Milagin, which must hate a free communica. lion with Bayonne, by means of the great road throm;li Alava and Guipuscoa. as well as by the less frequented and more perilous one that couthicts through Navarre. In Catalonia, it is clear. Wl' withstanding the pretended advantages of Ge neral Dunr.stts, detailed in the Mimi/ewe, that the Frec.ch, far frolt being victorinus, are con ' fined in a 'great degree to the two forts of Moutjuy and Fienerws. Even of Gerona, situated between them, DI:IIE4AIE has not been able, by the most desperate efforts, to gain po‘session. Un der these circumstances, which, it must be owned, are Hot very promising, the embassy sent by Jo. seen NAPOLEON, in the person of a Grandee of Spriti. the Duke DE Fitts% to BONAPARTE, at Paris, is rather calculated to excite ridicule theta apprehension.
