Earl PERCY, a young Noble man whose knowledge and talents are suitable ro. his high birth. and expeetations, is not expected to stand for Westminster, as reported. It is doubtful whether Mr. SHERIDAN will again stand for the same place, and he is expeeled to be returned for Oak hampton. Sir THOINIAS TURTON certainly re news his application to the Borough of :South wark, and is expected to join his interest with that, of Mr. WILLIAM SMITH. Mr. THORNTON, there fore, with all his respeetability and long services, will be driven bard in the contest. _Mr. LASCELLES, who 'so meritoriously distinguished himself by his attachment to Mr. PITT,-. and his reverence for the memory of that great and good man, is like ly to be returned for Yorkshire, and the Conn ; ty will do itself honour by such a choice.--:- General TARLBTON, again lays siege to Liver pool, and is expected -to carry the town.—Mr. LAyLAND, a Banker of that place, co-operates with the General on this occasion, and 'Mr. Roscoz must summon all his historical and poetical powers to withstand so formidable an attack. The County of Hants will most probably clause Sir H. MILDMAY and Mr. CHUTE.—Capt. STOI'VORD is to be oppos ed at Ipswich by Capt. BENNETT, a nephew of the Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND. Mr. WILSON is secure of - his return for that place.—Mr. Dicxxxsom and Mr. LETHBRIDGE are to be opposed by Mr. LANGTON, for the County of Somerset.—Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, who, with all he has squandered, seeatis to have more money than he knows what to do with, ventures again for Middlesex. Of Mr. 111EcLisn's return for that County there is little doubt. The same motives which induced Mr. PAULL to decline a/scrutiny for Westminster, 'will probably prevent him frO.n venturing on a canvass.—Colonel ELLIOT also starts for Westminster.—LordVALENTlA has already offered himself for the County of Wex ford.;—Sir ROBERT WIGRAM retires from the Bo rough. of .Wexford, and is to be succeeded by Mr. NEviLLE.—Mr. FAWKES abandons his pretensions to the County of York.—Mr. JEKYL means to de vote himself to professional pursuits, and not to plunge again into the vortex of parliamentary con tent ions.—Mr. HANKEY starts for the City of Lon don, and is expeeted: to run hard against his brother Alderman, Mr.. Comas.—Sir S. HOOD, of course, stands'again . for ,Westminster, and while he is gal lantly employed abroad. his Cootarymen, no doubt, will not forget him at home.—Lord COCHRANE has given a signal that he means.to attack the same place.—Messrs. PRICE, CURTIS, SHAw,.and Coms are aelively canvassing for the City of London.—Mr. S. THORNTON renews his pretensions to the county of Surrey.—Mr. LONGMAN has' made such a favour able impression upon the Eleelors of Maidstone, that they are likely to give a new edition of their former choice. We shall report progress as to future Electioneer ing proceedings, and we are happy to, learn that, as far as an opinion can be formed at present, the gene ral returns will mot probably be charaderized by a , Protestant ascenotancy. bUBLIN, APRIL 23. His Grace the Duke of RICHMOND has signified his intention of supporting his Government•by vigo tons measures; but there is no truth in the insidious report of any thing haying persOnally passed between his Grace and Lord FINGAL on the subjea of th e late Catholic Conventions, although the legality o f those meetings, after the inflammatory speeches 'de livered in them by Mr. KEOGH and Co. may not improperly be questioned. Yesterday his Grace the Duke of Riciarumn held his first Levee at the Castle ; it was numerously and brilliantly attended ; most of the Nobility and Gentry now in the City were present. • in order that the Answer from the Duke of BED- Foul) to the Catholic Body should be perfectly un derstood, we consider it necessary to give the Reso lution agreed to at the Cath o li c Me e ti n g on .Satur day last : Resolved, That Lord FINGAL be requested to wait upon his Grace the Duke of BEDFORD, and to expreSs the gratitude which the Catholic Body feel for the mild and dignified condu ct p ursue d by hi s Grace, during his Administration in Ireland, towards every description of his Majesty's subje6ts, and their deep, sincere, and unfeigned regret at his Grace's in tended departure from this country." Lord FINGAL having Waited On hiti Grade accord ingly, received the following answer ‘‘. The Resolution which your Lordship has been pleased to convey,to me, as the sense of that great and loyal Body, the Roman Catholics of Ireland, claims my warmest acknowledgments: In the discharge of the arduous trust committed to my hands by his MAJESTY, it has been my con stant and earnest endeavour to promote the interests and prosperity of this part of the United Kingdom ; and in now relinquishing that trust, in obedience to his MAJESTY'S command, I retire to the less mix.; iolfs cares of private life, cheered by a conscious feel, . ing within Me, that to the best of my imperfe&. juc!grnellt and abilities. I have done my duty to my' Sovereign and to My Country. In whatever station I may hereafter be placed, be assured, my Lord, that I shall never cease to 'en tertain the most.fervent wishes for the happiness oi every class and . aeseription of': my fellow-subjeCts in this part of thepritish Empire. April 21,, 1807. I3Eppo'an.” At two o'clock yesterday, the farewell' Levee of his Grace the Duke of BEDFORD commenced at the Castle; the number of Nobility and .Gentry who attended was immense ; we scarcely supposed the Union s had left so many in the country. *Their Graces appeared .sensibly to feel this testimonial of Irish resped and approbation. It was not, however, the last they were to experience. About four o'clock the procession departed from the Castle ; their graces the-Dukes of-13EnFoRD and RtontleNv, in one carriage, escorted by the sth Dragoon Guards; and, in a second carriage, her Grace the Ducheks of BEDFORD, accompanied by- Mrs. Sevmonit, Miss FORDYCE, and Colonel SEYt4OUR. At five o'clock they embarked on board the yacht, under a salute from the batteries. , The first public Speech Day at Harrow School, for this year, is fixed for Tumlar sth iv 1;! ) ., instead.

LThe following, Observations upon the Russian Armies ap pear to us to be deserving of attention, though we do not agree with them perhaps in every particular.] It seems to have become the general persuasion, that the ensuing campaign will scarcely be opened before every thing is pUt to the risque. of a general battle. Th►e' sieges of Dantzic and Konigsburgh Must compel BEN'&'IGSEN' to '.risque this impdrtant engagement. The conflia of two such Armies will be horrible beyond all example of modern 'times. It will be a conflict between two Powers, whose extent of do- s minion, and compass of 'military resources, would scarcely sink in the comparison with the ancient Monarchics. The object of the contest is in no re sped unworthy of the combatants—an Empire will be lost or won—Europe will be delivered, or her servitude 'will be confirmed for centuries ! • In such a state of things it cannot but be of ge neral interest to weigh the chances of the re'ult—to call before the mind of our Readers the respeaive qualities of the two parties, and to endeavour to (le duce some conclusion as to their comparative etlica cy. It has become too much a custom of late to under-rate the efficiency of the Russians. It has been still a more general, and more fatal error, to exaggerate the military prowess of our enemy.— Truth lies in the middle. It cannot be denied that the French armies have - become as it vyere 'peculiarly formed to war", by a long series of service. From the 1789 to 180, they have been successively in the field. s They are naturally an active, brave, and enterprising people; and when to these qualities are superinduced the long and unbroken habits of so many years of warfare, it cannot be denied that they have become a Military Nation. They are this, in deed, in the strict sense of the word—they are a Nation of Soldiers. But whilst we render this justice to the French, let us not ungratefully refuse it to Russia. Russia may not, perhaps, possess the Military discipline of France, but Russia may still possess qualities which may preponderate against the superior skill of her enemy. Let us consider for a moment the character of the Russians, and we shall find some of, those peculiar qualities—some of thinse chstinalive advan tages—which way raise Russia to the ,level of her civilized enemy. Now, the Writers upon the National Character of the Russians have considered their distinaire or charaQeristic traits chiefly under four :heads : Their Invincible Loyalty—the Impossibility of their being corrupted,-tileir Physical Superiority--and their Principleof With regard to 'their • Invincible:Loyalty, their' religious attachment to the Person and GovBrnment of their Sovereign, will it not have some etred•in. the ensuing eolithn ? The Russians, above every nation in the world, have been distinguished by chis.inilexi ble loyalty to their Sovereign. • There is not a 'single instance in the whole Russian history, of a Prince being dethroned who had time to appeal to• his people: There is something inherent and insepa rable from the genius of the nation, 'which excites love and veneratio❑ for the mere name of Rotialty. Will it admit a doubt, therefore, but that their at tachment to the present EMPEROR, the attachment of subjects naturally loyal to a Prince who so well merits their love, must exceed that of the French People to an acknowledged Usurper ? ' . With regard to their impossibility of being cor rupted—is it not notorious that the French have made more conquestsby their intrigues than by their aroas ; by the diffusion of their principles, than by *the sword ? It is by those means that France has infused into all Nations an involuntary respell for her---a habit of yielding - to her influence, and of be lieving her to be invincible. It is. by those means that she has indirthly turned every Court of Eu rope according to her own humour, tnaking them converts not only to her philosophy, but to her most acknowledged follies, and commanding their undis puted admission of hdr superiority over all. There is a subtle poison' in. this art, which works its way through all. opposition, unnerving every arm, and slackening every sinew of national strength and power. Russia is alone impenetrable to this poison. It cannot be communicated to her, be cause is cannot be brought into contact with her. The : genius of the-people would kill the plague in its first embryo. 'Books are the only possible vehicles of this, poison. There are two circumstances, hoW-; ever, which would render these books perfealy harm less. In the first place, they could never gain ad mission into the Russian Empire,-4n the second place; if they Could reach any certain place of their destination,' no one could understand thern.—The conclusiOn - is i that the Russians have never been , corrupted. There are no Philosophers—in other words, no'Traitors—in the Russian Army—they are all honest men-4hey have 'no Illuminees—nointi dels,--,they love their King, and acknowledo their God, The third distin&ive trait of the Russians is their physical superiority—the comparative individual Su periority. of a RusSian over a French soldier. In strength of body, and vigour of mind, th e R uss i a n soldirr is superior to the soldier of, most nations in the World. 'The habits of his life are such, that there is nu Soldier in the world whose' wants are fewer, and who - can bear fatigue and the hardships of war with equal lOrtittide. He is truly indefati gable: He can suffer hunger,•thirst, weather, the most unusual toils, and the most extraordinary privations, to the utmost and almost incredible stretch of the physical powers Of man. It is by no -means an unTornon thing for it Russian Soldier to . , ru2tion—engage tile enemy loirncti!ateiy—f:;l:t again for as bong a period of lUII and come• oil vit: 7 torious. It was this extraordinary physical ot:engi which prevented the junCtiOn of Mott EA,t; and M.;.c-: DONALD in Italy.; who each thought that he could be separate. from the othe,r, and dt;.- feated by an enemy So di;tant from both; , . With regard to their Religion, the Russian go , .•S to battle in the persuasion that his d t . at h i n thc,, field . will be a glorious martyrdom. Ile goes to battle with an alMost certain anticipation of ins eud. He knOwS,and fc'ars. no danger - , 'but that ot disobeying the command of his Officer. The opi , nion that such is hi. duty, is irradicable from Iv, mind. Were hut one Officer and one Soldier or 'y left on the field; out of a whOle Russian Army, and surrounded by tliousantis of the viCioriou4 Enemy, the Soldier would not, lay down his a, ins unless commanoa by his Officer. Such are the chataaeristics, the national cinaMlcs, of the Russian Soldiery. Will it be contend e d that BONAPARTH will gain an ca7iy viaory over an Army composed of such men—men of stich ioyati so invincible by corruption—posseced of such natural habits—and - confirmed in such reli gious principles ?—We think not. Should he cve l i gain a vi&ory, we cannot but indulge. a confident expeeation that it will be such as to dis.tb:e bitii froth pursuing it.
