'We have received l lain lough Papers to the 24'11, and Dutch to the .2tinh last from the latter of w'aieli we have extracted the Eighth Bulletin of the French army in Germoty. It is dated Vienna, the ltith, three days after the entrance of Bost RTE iotothat city. The interval does not furnish a s'oi t de military operation. The whole of the tittle was -voted to repose. It ha' appeared ton. that, wits inanagetneut on the part of Austria, llorr A. t UTE would not find himself in Vienna at leis join-. siey's coil, but, on the contrary, that hit, ties would continence with his arrival there,— This idea getout well founded. The character and conduct of the Depot will not allow us to lie have that he remains so lottg ,tatiouot•y at Vienna, merely to indulge his troops wish a revt e from their laironrs. De never has I welt known to regard their lives nr their comforts, whet* he hail aoy re vuurite point to curry. The iosurn-ction in II e North of Geri/Limy, wider St mil., and the revolt theTyrol, have, on doubt, ttlarlow.l IiON AP RTE., and demoted him at Vicuna. The news fowl l'uris, hi the Dutch Papers, comes down to tine 2tith last, mad tufficieiii!y, accounts for the ocettlitOktt of Oviedo. - It repeats the report of the arrival of considerable reitiforcements of French troops in the provinces of Astu'..tas aad I According to :irrolints of the -26th tilt. brought by a vessel from the Cast of Si.lift, the. French force that enterell Oviedn, on the tads, consi.l4-41 of about :AO men. They made their way into the Province by a pa.. which had ih4t beets ; and were opposed on their march by 2000 Spa niard., who behoved with the greatest gallantry, but , were a last ololigeil to Nt rem, which they 41h1 in good nether. Gallic-hi was in the best state, mai the military preirirations were going on with the greatest nromptitu4le and energy. The Marquis DE ROMANA:S army had reached Lazo ; he had landed, and was at „Nlahlotiado on his way to join them. The French were coiweatrating their force at Commis. There is a reprt of their having lost 5000 men at Santiago. The revers of the Marmuis DE LA ROMANA, whom our Ministers had re; mese iited as already near ly 'neater of Galheisi, mid waiting to toterceptSouLT in his precipitate flight over the Minim, have over 'l shadoard our prospects in the north of Spain. This Cousinauder of the Spaniards 114 s been, it ap pear., driven out of As•uria. Lik? XKRXES, when lie re-crossed the Hellespont. the Maiquis em. barked in a skit to rignin iiiluiden, or Vigo, or ally k eel that hr mild reivii. We have heard that the regiment del Psineipe, which he heft behind lam, to d fend the clay:owe tot° Oviedo, behaved much a.. Iloaacs owns that Al! dull at the battle of ; or, to draw au allusion from the country its.lf, Astoria. mod, as Gil Zhu did iii the engage. meat under Goland°, where he shut his eyes, and fired his carbine in the air. Seriously speaking, we f at that a great delusion has prevailed in this country, relative to the French force beyond the Pyrenees; a Bich, though it may lie 114”11 i nwdequnrr to cnoquests, is fully 'goal to the work of defence. In fact, while we have had our eyes fixed upon Bladrid, and upon Oporto, while we have dream ed of Jusxru's secouil retreat to Burgos, and anti cipated SOULT'S unconditional surrender, the ene snyioldenly presents himself in a province where he was least expected. As to Sir A &THU a WELLES LEY'S victories, we donut mean to depreciate them; but we conceive that, as to any ,beneficial effects resulting from them, they have been much over rated. SOUL/ is One Of BUNAPAILTE'S ablest Generals : lie cannot perform impossibilities; but we fear he will effect his retreat in safety. The more information we receive relative to the interior of the Austrian monarchy, armies, stud councils, the more are we inclisied to think, that if &NA - PARTE is arrest-il in his career, it will he from o Wino, and not from within. We in. 811 from the Garman empire, and not from the opposition of the Ar.•hduke CHARLES, BELLIEtaIIDL, and llti t VII, his :ever numerals, or even brave rind loyal, se may suppose their forces td be. It is not the regular Ananias of the Emperor FRANCIS, of which Box arARTh is afraid. On the contrary, he cal culates on a most cerise's,. success against them. But he trembles at leaders and gerunds of his own description, revolutionary commanders, called out by the calamities and exiasenties of the tines, en dowed, in some degree, with qualities and talents similar to his own. He trembler at revolutionary armies, levies ea ',fosse, popular assemblagaisponta aeously collected, such as those in the Tyrol, in Hesse, in Hanover, and throughout ull the mirth western portuns of Genially. In his ardour to pe netrate to Vienna, he has drained all that portion of his dominions; or, as it is nominally called, of JERO3II6 . 11 kingdom, leaven all the rousitries, frain the gates of Cassel and Maple. to those o: Lubeck, Hatuhurgli, and lire -8.10, or protection, or, at lean, of ... ._ ~, r .... , . azy regular milker! force. '1 his is the breach, at which, if our Ministers knew anal insalerstood the natare of the utake conteielvd for, they would, without a day's delay, throw in a supply to the garrison. The Tyrol is iiiiiccessilde to us, and inust he left to ifs.. efiiiras of its own hardy, generous, hlghlaital race of ialiabitalit, They will occasion NAPOLLON more siireasnies.=, and , aeciapy his arms mime painfully, than all the other tallies or subjects of the Douse of Austria. But, by means of the Ems, the IVeser, and the Elbe, 43 we have already stated, SOu !. may receive the most elheient aid ; if mat in men, yet in arms, ammunition awl motley. The expedition slow fitting out, and embarking. if it were landed at flresnerleliv, or at Stade, or below Eanbalen, would, it is probable, produce a vast and un universal in surrection throughout Lower Saxony, Westphalia, and Brandenlaurgh. There are not six thousand French troops in all that pent of the Continent ; anal in the hour of insurrectiou, no confidence could he released on Germans, Dwelt, or Poles. Jerome is altogether destitute of iielividaal, or of political re source. His only merit CO!l3i att., in his consangui nity with the great tyrant., The Prussians, anal even the Saxons, would assume courage to resist, if they sew us venture to appear on the Arena, and if they once beheld SCIIILL acting in any wart of con cert or union with England. Such an umwrition oil the Ellie, or on the ‘Veser, would bring buck NAPOLEON, even though he had peuetr.it uto Carla or to Trineswaer. Ile should be attacked iu those countries, , vs bieb,, as su ;posing them CM/1- 'l6loy subjugated, he has iu soane dolled. It is there that be is vulnerable; not, we fear, on the Danube. If not merely the ::assiveacquiescence, but the affirmative en-operation of the Emperor ALEXAN. OCR, in all the enterprizes of Bolt Aran re for the subjugation of Europe, be necessary, n..) man can reasaliAbir doubt that the Corsican may count on the unlimited participation of his Muscovite Ally. Sweden, it is obvious, forms at once the bait, uu:l the argument, to convince the Czmx. The deposi tion of Gosr tvos, and the elevation of his ouch., the Duke of SUDLRISA NIA, to the supreme au thority, appear to impose no restraint on the ad vance of the Russian gaups towards Stockholm.— We may, in fact, expect to hear of ALEXANDER'S entry into the Swedish capital, soon after NAPO.- LVLS . S occupation of the metropolis of Austria.-- Thus this ,earthy descemlaist of PETER. the GREAT, an lately the zealous defender of Austria and of Prussia, now proceeds, hand in hand, with a revolu tionary tyrant, the scourge of Providence, and the perpetrator of every outrage. Still it must be se. witted that Gusrsvus, by persisting in the war against France, after the submission of ALEXIA. DIM at Tilsit, was the author of his own depositiou and ruin. For, thott e ;:i NAPOLEON could not reach hiiu with his own hand, he could order ALEXAN DER to conquer Sweden, nod having conquered, to retain it, either ass province, or under the MUM` of another.

This was a motion insole by Mr. ALExsanea, on the part of tie guardians of a boy who is on the establishment of the Charter-house sehool, to re move hien Troin under the protection of his mother. It appeared that the father, by his last will, ap. rioted the preseut applicants sole gotiardiuns.-- fhe mother, since the death of the testator, had a second time entered into the noatrimonial statt, which offetiled the guardians, and, insrtad of per mitting the boy to spend the present holidays allow_ rd by the establish:moot, with his mother, they to.k I • to one of their own houses, whence the mo ther had se:lured him, and refused to deliver I • up to his guardians. Mr. Itienaans, Counsel for the mat! er, stated, she did nut a ish to interfere with the geosolianship of her son ; she went to see him, sad the powerful influence of nature and affection indoced her to grant the lboy*s request to spend his holidays w;t`t her; and, as soon us they were expired, every cute would Le taken that lie punctually return to school. The. Lritrurd Conusel contended, that the second cotcrture of the mother was not a proof that she should lose all maternal affection. Mr. ALEIANDFN, in reply, contradict, that if the boy had remained with his epitircitiflo, br might kart, impro.viog his education. I.nan (luso lebt.ita—'. At what time does the , bolialii,ys expire i" Mr. fliensans, in reply—" In ten ilayo.".;•. Loan CuastEt.tott—.. Then I am of opinion it would be improper for sne to iiiti.rfere ; fir child could not be better or more • *fel, situated, for such a short lapse of time, than under the eye of her who gave him birth; as to the argument that he might have imprmeri his education if he had been with his guardians, hold it that the boy should enjoy- the loodulsys allowed film and nut be clogged- with apprehesionuot of not being able to repeat a given lesson ; moiler winch consi deration I dismiss this motion with costs."
