A Gottet,hurgh Niail has arrived with letters and patios to the Bth lust. A report rose cur rent et that date, at hiockholin, that hostilities had recommenced between France and Austria, anti that the latter was to be assisted by Russia and Prussia. We were already apprised, that the .issran army, although it had gamed an advantage sv. r the Swedes 'tear Unica, in %Vest Bothnia, had shortly after commenced Its retreat.

The premised.lubilee,altl giro just compliment to our good and venerable King, is expected to work this way; for what goo.' is there without its alloy ? But it is 83 111(11:C1'4134, na it is scandalous, in the Minis terial Print., to admit, thus broadly, that they wish for Jubilee, or a impular outcry against Covent- Garden Theater, merely with a view to divert the popular itwh;•.:atiou from Ministers. We do wit recollect at any period of Mt MA• JAlHrlell reign, even during the most calamitous tubes of Lord Nome* administration, when the progress of the American war had fansilimired the nation to every kind of disgrace and disaster; yst we do not recollect rum expeditions running, if we irwy use the repression, parallel with each other, both of which have been conducted to so ignomini ous or ruinous a termination, as those recently un dertaken, under Lord CHATHAM and Lord WU, LINGTON. IM the only rational object for whack the former could have been fitted out, namely, the raipture or destructiou of the French fleet in the Scheldt, we have completely failed ; nut, as far as we am judge, from the want of adequate means, both military and naval ; nor still less, from any such immediate overpowering accumulation of foree collected wider the walls of Antwerp and of Bergen-op-Zoom. as left us no rational chance of *nevem.

Such was the aspect of things, when the Earl of CSIATNAN made good his landing, both cm the Isle of Walcherea.•nd upon South Beveling!, at Ga.., on the 2nth and Joth of July. It is clear to de monstration, front the testimony of the I'rencli and Witch themselves, that had he then, or even dur ing the fir,' days if disgust, advanced up the Scheldt, es it will not be couteated that lie might have done, in defiance either of the batteries Cedaand, or of Flushing, he must, according to all rational grounds of calculation, have carried all be fore hint. That we do sot lightly or carelessly as sert these things, will best be proved by the authen tic doe 1111 l ergs now before us. It appears, by the official information of the JoJessal de !'Empire, that Louts BONAPARTE did not gait the pa lace of Loo. in Gaelderlatid, whither he had retired, to repair to Amsterdam, till the 2d of Amigos,. The ICoyal Gazette says, on the 3rl of August," Le Rot est arrive Hier, en son palais e Amsterdam, v. mint du chateau de Loo, avert quitte le mom." Frora tot Roue authority we learn, that it was not till the Bth of August, that Loots reached Bergen-op-7,oam, and established his head-quart, is there. Nu army, view the name, of site seiv.znitode, WAS meemided at Ant werp on the bit iil A ugust ; RNAOUTTI: had not even assuirnA the a maw! of the torcea. On the Sth, RAINVON acted as General. The Amsterdam Royal Gazette, of tie Stli, expressly asserts, that, he had not then above Eighteen Thousand may under his orders. The words are these: " The General Senator, Coma Ramiron. commands the French army assembled at Antwerp. The division of General CHAMBERLACH is already twelve thous and strong. General COMMON/MIR is hourly ex pected, with considerable rtinforcenients. Lieut.- General Tanastai, with six thousand Dutch. has joined the French army. of which it forint the right wing. Nothing can be clearer, or more specific, than this admission. The articles from Goraim, Dort, nod Ilaerlern, of the Ist, 2d, sad 4th of Agust, confirm the fact. But • circumstance still more peremptory and conclusive, is, that the foreign Gazettes eepressly attribute their having escaped from destroc. solely to our delays, and want of all euer ? :y or promptitude. In the Journal Sc Liege, d tees the Bth of August, is given the postscript of a letter, written by Monsieur MALOYtT, Maritime Prefect at Antwerp, addressed to the Prefect of the dr partoient of Liege. This postscript is dated the tide of August, at night. The words are these, literally translated : Troops arrive to us from all sides. All our alarm* are dissipated. Happily As L•aglish hare given us time.—(Hrureascruent, its Anglin.; nous out doinik du trios.) They hare at this moment 300 sail at the mouth of the Scheldt. But the two hanks are sufficiently protected, and we shall act on the offensive, if they attempt any thong. , The Yin, of HOLLAND is arrived to our assistance, with all his means." It is obvious, that three or four days earlier, they were utterly unprepared to have repelled a vigorous attack. If, however, we wish for further evidence of our delay and uneertaintu. wheu all turned on decision and rapidity, we may find it under the same authority. Front Ghent, on the foli of August, it it announced officially, th it the English hid landed on Walcheren, and were sat down before Flashing. The article then pro ceeds thus:—" La knietir des Aoglais a rte pu'u► now., iron grand arantoge. L'iarertitude de leura movement' non. • pe►mis de faire venir on grand tormbr• de troupes."-►The slowness of the English has hero very asivalitageors so us. The uncertoia ry of their movements has ambled us to collect a great number of troops. These recognitions and occupations of the enemy, carry more conviction to the mind, thins any charge* that mold have been inveuted or drawn up here. They are moot serious. How will they be 'moored or repelled? Co MA. we doubt not, will advance equally strong alfegaticios against Lord IVI.I.I.INUTON. It must be owned, our Ministers have manifested no little ability to their selection and employment of military commanders. The Diana.
