WE Yesterday received the Moniteur of the 14. th inst W 4i l +.4 l l contains another long declamatory Ar ttele against this Country, It charges us with ha ving sought for Allies to make War, and with having abandoned them when we wished to con_ elude Peace. Assertions are easi:y made, but the . labour cf . proving them, the Moniteur very Wisely does not undertake. Every one of our Allies had concluded separate Treaties of Peace with s tance, before we signed the Preliminary Treaty in Oaober TSot ; and yet the Mon;ttar gravely asserts that we made Peace and abandoned them. Tl Stipulations that we made in favour of .Porto_ gal and Naples, are either forgotten or purposely BuPpressed ; but the daily task of composing those att acks against .the condua of Great Britain, / "Itid be a painful one indeed, if the writers ''ere compelled to a slavish adherence to dates ° r fads. - When we see an accusation against th is Country for having abandoned the interests of Austria in the Treaty of Amiens, we must either suppose that the Writer had forgotten that such a T reaty as that of Luneville had ever been made, or , else that he had imagined that it was concluded 41 thse tue . at to the Peace of Amiens.. But, as if it was intended to heap absurdity upon absurdity, almost in the same sentence in which we are accused for not hav ing made stipulations in favour of Austria, it is con tended that we have no :right to interfere in the aff 4 tPs of the Continent. We wif not trouble our Readers with any further observations upon this curi ous Produaion, except mereirto add, that, like most of the articles of the same description which have lat e l y appeared, first it" was inserted in the Mercure de Bran. , e., But the Moniteur having adopted it t we a .- • entitled to con6islei it as speaking the semi- ents - et out raper, even it we - had hot stronger r easons for entertaining that opinion: We also received two Hamburg and two Dukh ' Mails. According to inttlligence from Constantinople by the way of Vienna; the Heys in Egypt have defeated the Turks in seven different anions ) by which the latter have been so weakened and reduced, that they have been compelled to apply to the English for aid and proteaion, to prevent their being driven out of .the Country. The Mediating Powers have presented a Note to Baron d'ALBINI for the Deputation cf the Empire, acknowledging the — Receipt of the Definitive Con clusum, which they represents as fixing, for the pre sent, in an invariable manner, the arrangement of the Indemnities ; and they call upon the Deputation, to terminate without delay, the objeas which still remains for its discussion. The formal consent of the EMP E ROR is, it appears, not waited for. Most of the German States have been put in the civil possession of the Government and Revenues of the Territories allotted to them, with the exception, however, of the ELECTOR of BAVARIA, who is still excluded from Passau. The troubles in the Grisons are not yet appeased. Two thousand Batavian Troops were tiyernbark last week for the West Indies. The departure of the French Troops for LOUjSia_ na has been deferred for a fortnight. HIS MAJESTY will hold a Levee for the Foreign Ministers and Noblemen on Wednesday next. On the 6h inst. His Royal Highness the Duke of CAMBRIDGE left Hanover, on his way to Stilt gardt, from which place it was supposed he would proceed to Vienna. On the zgth of November, M. VON EHRENHEIM, the Royal President at Stockholm, gave a grand Dinner to Prince WILLIAM of GLOUCESTER, at • which many of the Nobility of Sweden,, and th© Foreign Ministers, were present. On the rst insr .His Royal Highness was to be present at an elegant The, given by Count VON AVAci-rmEtsmt. The Right Hon. WILLIAM PITT, we are happy to learn, is recovering fast from his recent indispo . sition. _ _ _ Mr. PITT goes from Bath this week to spend his . Christmas with the Marquis of BATH, at his Seat at Long Leat. Mr. DRAX GROSVENOR was on Wednesday eleaed Member,for Chester, in, room of his cousin, no w Lord GROSV ENOR.. `We understand that the Lords of the Magary, are busily emplo)ed in investigating the state. of • the different Royal Forests, with a view to their affording the 'means in future, for a regular supply' of Timber to His .MA3 ESTY'S Navy. A more im portant objea certainly could not engage their-at. te ntion Several Boards have of late been specially held on that subjed. The Hon. Cul. STCP3 , ORD has been so liberal to his Company as to allow each Serjeant five shillings, each Corporal two shillings)and sixpence, and one shilling to each of the Privates, to make merry on Christmas-day. Sir G. S. EVELYN has given tool. to be. applied to the release of poor debtors in Warwick. gaol ; in eo nsequence of this benevolent donation, Seventeen, persons have been restored to societ3%. • Jamaica Papers to the 3otb of Olober are re- ceived, but they are barren of intelligence: The Garland and Stork sailed fidm Montego Bay on;the 23d of Oaober, - on a.cruize. The Tartar - arrived at Port Royal on the t7th, as did the Echo' some days before, from New Providence ; the De.: sire'e from Port Antonio, and the Saab, from Hon-- ihiras ; the Desirei, while at Port .Antonio, had her top and mainmasts struck by lightning, but no person on board hurt ;. the Cerberus, Tartar, ir rent, and lEolus, were in company, but did not exi*rience any damage. Boston Papers to the .9th of November are -reQ. ceived.--,The Palladium of that date, - says, `,‘ Go, vernor WENTWOIiTH has authorised the. continuance of the intercourse between Nova Scotia and the Uniteti States till the . 30th of April next." In addition to communications lately made, re_ spewing St. Domingo, we have now to mention, ihat:on the Bth of Oaober, a large parry of Blacks attacked the town of Port de Paix, carried it by assault, and put most of the white inhabitants to the sword. Two vessels laden with wounded, &c. ar rived at Cape Francois the day following, and on the roth, the Admiral sent a frigate and a sloop with troops, for the purpose of retaking the sown. After a very obstinate defence, which continued for nearly two days, the blacks gave way, carrying with them, however, a large supply of stores,-am- munition, &c. A letter from Amboyna, dated the 25th of Au gust., states, that a violent shock of an earthquake had been experienced in most of the Eastern islands —lt took a Southerly direetion, and occasioned a heavy swell of the sea on the neighbouring coasts, on 'parts of which, it is reported to have done con siderable damage. The Rajah of Buliana, who had long resisted in arms the authority of the Government of Mysore, has been finally defeated by a detachment from the Southern British Army, assisted by the Mysore Troops. The Rajah efFe4ted his escape into the. Hill Country ; he has, however, been delivered up, and sentenced to perpetual imprisonment. According to the different accounts received of the Earthquake of the 26th of Ottober, it extended over the greater part of -Russia. It'was particularly strong at Tula, Kaluga, and Orel. What is some. whet remarkable is, that it was very sensibly felt on the whole right bank of the Oka, and not at all on the left bank. An earthquake was felt at Neustadt, in Lower Austria, on . the 21st oft. the shock of which was so strong that many of the inhabitants ran our of their hou4o. WA II L Arg-tv-71: 1 3 1 UTlf, DEC. iB.

THE Spanish Frigate jurto; of 34 guns, having on hoard one hundred thousand dollars, was lost on • her „passage from Porto Rico to Cadiz. On the 24th of Oaoher; the Favourite Schooner, Poutt.- LAND, from Madeirg for Boston, tell in with , the 3:mo, in lat. 36. 40. lOng. 67. 16. Her Captain, DON JUAN IGNACIO BOSTILLOS, informed Mr. PouRLAND that she was in great distress, and that the water gained so fast, that their utmost exer- _ tions were necessary to keep her free ; he at the same time requested that the Favourite Would con_ tinue in company until he could make land, and receive on board three °Meets and four Marines. Nothing occurred till the 23th, when it blew a heavy gale from the N. W. Whe i n Mr..P. served signals for abandoning'the frigate, and for the Favourite to run as neat as possible under her lee. The Spaniards waved ,their' handkerchiefs, and seemed _in the utmost confusion. At nine o'clock in the morning the main-mast went over her side, and -the fOre-mast fell alternately from side to side. EVery effort was made by the Fa- . vourite to afford her`assistance, but in :vain. A heavy fog ensued, and'contiwaed half an hour-; .:when it cleated away, the frigate was no longer to be seen. There were ,kl 3 persons, including women and children, on hoard - , ail of 'whom perished. THE OPERA. Meropt was again performed on Saturday, with increased- applause, to a crowded Audience. Mrs. BILLI):0 - roN gave : her songs with great efied, and what we were happy 10 hear, with a good deid, of variety— T to a musical, ear this gives a peculiar sa tiSfaaion, inasmuch as the song becomes by these means a new one, and . vi.e are convinced, that the Performer is a Musician. The Pito between Mts. BILIANGTON and VJGANDNI continues to draw great applause and attention. GERBINI rises fast .in the public estimation ; we rather long to see her in the Comic Opera. • We' missed PAttisoT in the" first Divertisement; although perhaps, the Pas de Deux Wiell LAEGRIE, frOtn its great length, and the gravity of its music, may as well be omitted. The French AtribaSsador, and the beautiful Ma. dame POR'rAI.Ii, escorted by Sir SIDNEY SMITH, were present. The. Duke. of Yoßx was in his Box the greatest part of the evening, and the House in . 'general was exceedingly full. The Comedy of As You Like It, was represented on Saturday last at Drury-Lope Theatre. There was nothing new in the performance of this ad mirable Play, except the appearance of a Mr. BAR CLAY, from the Margate Stage, in the charader.of Orlando. This Gentleman's talents deserve a mole favourable mention than his external requisites. His figure is short, and not well-formed. His face is by. no means regular or expressive, and his voice is pe culiar, and- no.t pleasing in its tones. He performed the part, however, with unaffetiled feeling and judge menr, and if Ile is not calculated to assume a high rank in the: Theatre, : he has abilities that may be tttidored very Useful, His Highness the. MIKE of ORLPANF, and the Earl of MontA, arrived on Wednesday at Edin burgh. On Tuesday last a Duel was fought near the North Wall, Dublin, between GEORGE NIXON, of Nixon- Hall, Esq. and D'ARCY MAHOx, of Cloon, Ecq. in which the former received a wound in the breast,• which was at first supposed to be mortal, but which is not likely to prove fatal. On the t 6th insf. was married at Bishop Wear mouth, FowAap CtiRREN HOLGATE, Esq. of . 1 Thornton Curtis, :Lincolnshire, to Miss MALING, Daughter of J. IVIALNG, Esq. .of Grange, in the County of Durham. Silocr.t NG MURDIIR.--Loa Friday se'r.night, Miss Tana orr, of Kegworth, in Leicestershire, a very amiable young Lady, about twenty-eight years of 'age, housekeeper to her brother, in liegworth, had been to see her mother, who lives . only at the other end of a close adjoin ing the town, called the Home Close, through which is a public path from the neighbouring vil lages, and was, on her road Mame, about ten o'clock in the evening, most brutally murdered. As she was in the habit of frequently sleeping at her mo ther's, her absence created no alarm; but in the morning, about six o'clock, she was discovered in a puddle on the ground, against a stile leading into' ,the town, with her clothes turned over her face, her bonnet,,. add neck-handkerchief torn off, and her pocketslified of what valuables she had ; she was taken to a neighbouring house, where she was recognized, and a Surgeon sent for, but she expired while they were undressing her. From the bruises upon her legs, thighs, and breast, she must have made great resistance, as the party,• no doubt, in tended to violate her, but did not succeed, and in attempting to stifle her cries (which must have been heard, from the houses being so very near) strangled -her. A verdia has been returned of Wilful Murder against some person or persons at result unknown, ~.... PAM, DEC. i 44 . . . xtia4Troni lir Article in 'the Mogi/cur, it: ted to ,be from the Mir-tare 4e Fran 4. j Jr is a subjea Of Oitiplaitii to die Cabinet of Sr: janwesi, that the late. War it *as abandOned by its Allies : this, however, is fake ; it Was England who sacrificed all those Powers who entered , into the War at•lier instigation. We, shall cite'Artistria - a3 an instance. When the Court . or Vienna made Pc;sce, it was evidently necessary For her : as England had achieved various conquests, if she hari been willing to interfere in •that Treaty;-she would doubtless have made compensations in favour of Austria; but which it was her objea fo 'avoid. Austria therefore abandoned to herdestiny, and with ail the' disadvantages attending a rower - borne down by sac cessive defeats : .France, however,. did not bbttse her: viaories ; but it was not to the British Cabinet that:: Austria stands indebted for favourable terms of peace. Thos it is incontestibly proved, that Au stria was abandoned by England, whd at that time declared she was unwilling to interfere in the con- * cerns of the Continent. The Cabinet of Sr. James's afterwards made a•separate Peace, with all the ad. vantages of a Power who had made conquests, and treated' for itself alone ; the consequence - of which was, that the restitutions made by her were . corisi derably less than she '.should have made ) had she. treated at the same time for bet Allies. Now, as there are no more Compensations to make, England changes her prin4.le, and says, that she eannot remain -indifferent to what passes in EarOpe% , iThns, to -explain. this varitity',e poi - iick, it is neee'ssary we should assume, that solely guided by hiS'interest, the English:Minister , isolates himself, in order to retain the profits of the War, and forms alliances to divide its losses. This is - the secret consideration .which has induced, in the 7 course of a few months; such a difference in the opinion of the'Parliameiit. ,And . iliese into dare to i: complain that they have no longer Allies ! They:, think, because they, furnish money, that trey.; ,are exonerated from all flit they obligation. The Bankers of London cannot' conceive how the Conti- : nental Governments can refu,e•the " happiness" of •'• risking their Stares to augment the 'Cominerce of FtrYlani : and they crown all, by imagining it •will'. always be lawful for them.to say to Kings, " Fight - -for us ; we - will make peace without you, on the accusation of your, not having obtained victories at the stipulated price." After having refused to assist at the Treaty ,of , Lunev ilk, it islastonishing that England should dis cuss that Ta.ary, in which she is not even n oned. :What tight has The to complain resp'ctiog it ? Who has informed her that all that has since taken place was not previously agreed netWeeti the Coin/. Powers ? Who can answer to her, that ther ,- :. will . not hereafter many things pass between the Powers interested, without reference to, what the Engliol, Parliament shall say of them ? in order to have a • pretext for interfering in the concerns of the Conti nental Powers, it is necessary that she should treat on. other principles than those of an Insulated and , 'Maritime Power. _ _ England reproaches France with a' boundless am bition ; but it is not right to judge of the ambition of a Nation by the extent Of its vietories, as these only proVe its courage : but, without stopping to discuss this question, we4ball speak to faCts. .Eng- Ittpd had numerous Allies at the commencement of the War,' one of'whicivalone remained to her when she made Peace. Trance, on the contrary, had all Europe to contend with, but every pacific Treaty she concluded brought an Ally with it. Cr we may, ask, which is the . Power whose ambition is most. fatal to other Governments, that which had Allies, and lost them, without ceasing to make conquests, or that which, without having them, at the com mencement of the War, reckoned all Europe in her alliance at the,general Peace ? A Member of Parliament has advanced, that France had Allies, ,because shejlattait leurs profess. It is impossible to reason better, .for it. is ~clear, that all Alliance between great Powers is founded * , on the reciprOcal advantages which they can secure but it is vain to look for :the advantage which can, be secured to other Nations by a People, wK) pro fess to fight- for their Commerce alone. England, is out of the, pale of the Continent, and so remains:: this is at present, andwill be-for. some time, the leading principle of European policy. We have proved, tltat•the English form Alliancei only to make War, and that they, isolate themselves in order to make Peace : while, on the other hand, France sustains the l'i'ar solely with her own force, and makes Alliances only to lender Peace more certain. This difference of condu6t, so honourable to the French Natioo, Ought to detemine the Pcilicy of every Cabinet in Europe. We should not, thete fore be surprised that England complains of the want of Allies. CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 20.
