We are.happy to learn that the brings information of thecomplete restoration of , Peace in India; the natural censequence of those brilliant Successes whieh have,been achieved in that quarter by' the ability of the Commander in Chief, the skill and gallantry of the Officers employed under him, and the heroic brayery of our Troops. We received this morning a Joinaica Mail. It lyings no pews of any importance. The following article is firom the Kb* ston Puperot'the 27th Augnst.

But the measures indeed since adopted by Prussia tend to remove an doubts respeding its future conduEt, for we have seen a Letter from an Officer of dis tiOtion in the Pitt‘ian, Army, ,which positively states that the -first , CBhunn of Prussian's was ex peded to reach Hoff, nea the Frontiers of 'Bettie mia, on the 13th,,0f this inp4th., , , „. A. Letter from Plymouth reeivefl yesterday says, that a-Line-of-baffle:Ship, disrlasted, in company with a Frikate,. was teen off that Port, 'and - it '1,44 supposed . , to be the Belleisk, from Admiral Cotr• LINGWOOD'S Fleet We have- reason to believe that it was not the Belleisle, or anyv Ship -en gaged off Gidiz : it is More probably . 4 trophy of Sir RICHARD STRACHAN'S We stated 5 . 0111 e. 444 'a g O that the Rochefort Squadron had not got in to Port, and Sir IL - Sntictiks was In hopes of intercepting them. It is by "n 6 means -impro bable that. he may have fallen in with them—if he has, the result may be easily anticipated. Tnk malignity with which the Opposition Writers daily comment on _the- disastrous opening of the Campaign in Germany, cannot but excite: the indig nation of every man that feels properly for those great interests which seem to be finally staked on the issue of the present contest., It is too plain to re qUite, observation, that those Writers seek to render that malignity, which, bOwever, seems perfeEtly'con genial to the frame of their minds snbservient to their grand obje6t, of which they never lose sight—the removal of the present Administration, that their own Patrons may be brought into power. But on the present occasion they exhibit .a memorable in stance how much the pursuit of a sinister object may lead men to sacrifice not only principle and decency, but even consistency and common sense. The best possible refutation of such men is generally to be found in their owacomments._ before -the-formation of the present COnfede racy, these Party - Writers represented the confirm., once of M - r,IIITT in Administration as.rm.insuperable bar to :my e Tort§ on the - Confluent for the liberation of Europe from the insniting tyranny . of France.— In such a Minister the Continental Powers, it was slid, - did not, and could not, coiek/e ,, :tergo—the sub stitutiett of, Mr; Fox for Mr, Pmr, was an indis 7 pensible preliminary to any co-operation with this Ceuntly in' the present War. Events, however, soon Nheured ' the fallacy, of this, conelusion i and a Confederacy Was formed of so extensive .a nature, as 'to :even .the ConduCtors of the Opposition Papers with hopes 'of its SUCCC3S. They had then no subtertitge left but to dimy that Mr. PITT had been .the .instrunutitt by 'which . the Confederacy was brought together. But drovei them from this 'untenable ground, •by proclaiming to the world that the intrigues and the gold of .England had alone incited the Powers on the Continent to armi---a truth, winch properly translated, no man 'Ma deny. ' - But though, according to these Writers, Mr. PITT had no Inuit in predueing.,-thig9nfederaey, , no, sooner does in Atbtri4n Army,,,tneet •with.disasters; than they make him responsible for the event. it is entirely..his fault that. MACK hati,,capitulated, and that .one of the,fine,d ter; entered the field bglibcen destl . o) cI. liut With inSulting.malig nity they represent the capture of General MACK. OS : affording some ground r uf consolation. This 014vi oust) implies that the cau3e was supported by powerfill:tneans as at least to hold out a prornisiiii i appearance - ,a, auCcels, and that 'its iltilure i 5 owing to the bad Generalship of tile above Commander, And yetuitis suutli in the same breath, that it would • r : wc, eel am ( .4i .ht. 4ow ers (,mne. without doubt, pri,neipally Mr..l)rrr); - to 'whose 'instrumen tality, it happens that those means have been brought, intoa6tion, but who could not regulate their aPpli-. cation,' 'We're also Prisoners of War ! It. is Ovious, that all the .British Cabinet could do . on the Continent was to route - ,and encourago. the great .Powers, and to prevail upon them to assist, with an : :idetiailate`,tbrCe; the common cause, But . the plaos - of the Campaign, o r the operations of the ,Gali , ekiis who condu& it, were , not under the con. trout or direaion of th it ,Cabinet: To attempt to i:lustritte this position would he , to insult the un dersti:nding 'of the negle& of the British Government to 4upport the Austrian Army by a military foice is also made a ground of censurci, but such a cavil scarcely deserves notice. Had it L I CCO VOsSiEne stir. a MUSD RIM co maze its aPpenr ance in Swabia and- Bavaria, its being sent would have caused much louder clamours than arc raised on account of the negle4R of Such a measure. With regard to the Expedition which has sailed on a dif ferent destination, unless it can be proved -that Ministers can command the winds, its delay is not imputable to them. The result of the whole is, that while Mr. PITT remains in office Europe has no chance of being rescued from the tyranny of the Corsican, and that this event can be achieved 'only by Mr. Fox. But there is reason to fear that -thelatter is, of the two; much the least likely to possess the confidence of the Continental Sovereigns, wild cannot but how heavily he hung upon their efforts during the last war—how much• he laboured then" to de prive them of the assistance' of this Country— how grossly he insulted them with the epithets of tyrants and despots. It is also proper to observe, that Mr. Fox has at all times declaimed against Continental Allianc6, and is in fact a determined enemy of Continental Connexions : consequently be is the last man to be employed in the present situation, of things, when the independent Powers of the Continent might be assisted by Britain against the Usurpations of France, and the Continental Pdwers keep the Usuri>er check in case of any designs be Might meditate , against this Country and its Dependencies. The real friends ofthe Constitution have also the most serious objections to the proposed change: for, independently of the obligations which - they are sensible they owe to Mr. Prrr, for the firm and manly stand which he made at one of the most awful periods this Country has ever known, thy cannot yet forget that at the above period Mr. Fox most strenuously resisted' every effort, public and private, to stem the torrent of democracy;' nay, that because the Legislature felt it necessary to pass some salutary laws 'to defeat conspiracies of domestic traitors, he declared, in Parliament, that resistance Was become a question; not of inoi-afity, ut of i-4 7 . kence. • . , • The extreme rancour which fadion tilreaciy dis plays, in consequence of the disasters which have attended the opening of the campaign, cannot fail to revive the recolle&ion .of its condud on former occasions. The retrospe& is Fainful, but if neces sary it skill not be avoided—vertum sat.
