The rapidity with which occurrences of the . ut t°"st magnitade succeed each other,. and assert their claim s de die in diem to our whole attention, has, since the rupture of the Armistice, been so astonishing, that. but little time has been left us taira reflection. This has been especially the ease during the last ten days. We sit dotvnon de"' to Prepai•e a composed review of. those sur- Prising incidents which at this crisis fill up the great historical draina of Europe; but even whili! we write, the mighty event rolls on, the scene is changed by some new and terrible eircamstance; we are hurried into the vortex ; sw ePt. on by the resistless .torrent ; and the.' P ow ers of reasoning are swallowed 'up in the stronger sensations offeeling,—for i g IV" can i e wide, amazed, teiniierate,_ and furious, " Lnyal and neutral in a moment ?--No man i" and his snul must be of impenetrable stuff who can repel the interest of these stupendous times, or view the passine; won:lers without experiencing a portion of that violent agitation which; like a tem P e st , rages and affects every thing around him. 'vt,,r, confess that such a temperament is h Y no means allied to us nor do we ever wish to resist the glowing impulse. When vet country's glories demand our, recording . Pen, we give way with delight to all that en• thusiasm. and exultiition which 'Loyalty and Pa triotism inspire, when engaged in 'contemplating the triumphs of mercy and justice, and honour and hi‘—wLin!,- -- -"Y, and truth. .

Should the report be correct in all its particu lars, then may we rest in confidence that the mor tal career of this Desolator is near its close. To, or from, Magdchurgh with a diminished force he can never escape; but the world wilt be delivered by. a sacrifice whose life blood shall dye a Cos sack's spear.—Zuch, we trust, has been the fate of that greatest scourge of the human race, NAPO LEON BUONAPARTE. The French Papers of the 19th inclusive, which We mentioned as having seen yesterday, .(having in this instance priority of intelligence over all our contemporaries) tt,is d ty simply us with most meagre extracts. Their insignitiCance however, as we then suited, is the best. feature they could possess in these eventliil times. To haVing.tao thing to say to the people of France, proves. the desperate state of.their Tyrant's resources. , A Report has obtained some currency this morning in, the. City, that Pamplona had surren dered, and our Falmouth letter affords sonic coun te►aance. to the fact. We understand, however, that Government have received no intelligence of the kind. A report was strongly in circulation this morn ing stated, that one Of our Cruizets had fallen in with a vessel, having on hoard an Officer charg.fd with Dispatches, announcing the entrance of the Allies into Dresden. ,1t is believed, how ever, that the vessel alluded to was the Princess Augusta, which brought letters from the Elbe, hnt had no Oc'er on board charged. with any such At a moment when even amid the tremendous conflict in Germany, the Bridal heart is - still more anxiously turned to that which is maintained on the borders of Spain, we have great pleasure in calling the attention of the public ,to the masterly letter of Cceraus in our preceding columns—a composition so animated and able, so sound and comprehensive, so eloquent and sublime, we will venture to say bus seldom adorned a page of the periodical Press in this or in any other country, A Morning Paper has tried to circulate a report that Hamburgh. is occupied by the It usSians. may be so, but at present. no 'such news has ar rived. Lieutenant- WALLIS, who lately escaped from. French prison, says, that on his way through France he witnessed a great deal of mul - miring and dissatisOetion, chiefly t wised by the Clergy, in con sequence of a late measure of BuoNfArARTE in or dering'nll the Students for the 'Priesthood to he included in the lists of the conscription. They remonstrated against this, upon which they wore ordered to work on different public works, fortifi cations,-Ikc. like common labourers. A piivate letter front Calais, it is said, men tions a report of Dresden being in the possession of the Allies.' A letter frinn Elbing, dated the 3d instant, ru- Mours that Dantzic was discovered from that place to be. on fire. Orders lave been sent off- to-Lieutenant-Gene- O ral Sir lortw Hoyt, iu Ireland, to prepare to de part with all possible speed for St.. Sebastian's, to relieve Sir TtioNIAS GRAHAM.

The latter had. just galloppvd tip to make a communication to the 'EmrEllow, and the horses beads touched when the ball executed its fa tal comtnisiOn. Sir Roattur describes the re treat of the Allies from before Dresden as being masterly in the extreme, and as effected without much loss. Gene'ri.!

HORRID MURDER AT PORTSMOUTH A most atrocious murder was etimmitted yester day aft , ernoon,,aboat 4 o'clock, in the most daring and diabolical Manner that it is possible to de scribe; ithe 'particulars are briefly as tollow.: A ‘itaterman tw.med George Brothers was plied by three persons em to take them, to ityde, in the" Isle of Wi g ht, to which he agreed, and sei sail for that purpose; but before they. had started more than five minutes, a mae was observed_ in the boat, and tin Waterman thrown overboard ; he was, almost immediately picked up, covered with stabs and cuts, and quite dead. An alarm being given, the wherry was 'followed by a .boat from his Majesty's ship Centaur, and several other boats. The Lieutenant of. the Centaur's boat, finding they scarcely gained on the wherry, put two men into each of two other Ivherries, which •werc also in chaSe, conceiving them most likely to come up with the wherry, and the result proved he was perfectly correct ; for, just at sun-set,. they run the Wherry. alongside, though going at the rate of ten miles an hour, and secured the three men, but not till after they had made a des perate -resistatice. They were landed this day, amidst the execrations of an almost ungovernable populace, and examined at the Town Hall, when they acknOwledged themselves to be prisoners of war, and to have escaped from Porton prison, at two o'olock in the afternoon. It appears that they had been enabled, from selling toys, in pur chase entire new eloaths; by which they eluded the gnards at the gate, Brothers has left a wife and tiro children, and the - shock of his tunimely and has occasioned her to give a premature birth to a third. A salesman, named VEAL was shot by .a Marine on duty on board his Majesty's ship Centaur, yes, terday, whilst laying alongside. The hall passed through his arm and thigh. is: inn •very.dan gerouS state. The marine is committed to prison. The Adjutant-General , accompanied by his Aid-de-Camp, left Camden House, Kensington, yesterdayouirning,byorder of the Commander-in- Chief, to inspect all th'e., flos'pitals round the coast, with directions to report to his Royal ness 'the deficiencies that may exist, and to remedy' any initnediate, consequence arising from the present system of conducting that department.
