The Court of Common Council which was held yesterday, for the purpose of forming a congratu ' 'gory Address to the PRINCE REGENT on the glo rious Nictory at salanianca, passed off, as, gur readers Will see, by an account of its. proceeding in alio tk,er part of our paper, with more regard : to de corum than has been usual on similar, occasions. We mentioned yesterday, that Nye thought the City orators were somewhat -tardy in coming forward in- such a purpose, -and . some of them ex pressed the same opinion. There was A little party nibbling, as might be expected, and some suggestions were thrown out as to the .pro priety of connecting with the Address a recoy., inendation of peace ; but a desire of unanimity, .and the dictates of' common prudence, prevented any thing from being blended with the professed purpose Of the Meeting, and Cue proceedings, on the whole, were decorous and patriotic. Last night French Papers to the 30th ultimo arrived, audit gives usireatpleasurc ,to find, that , they are wholly destitute of intelligence df lary ti..ture. There are, indeed, letters, froni the head -quarters Tof the French . Army, of the 15th; but they contain no .news, and merely say that BUG NAPARTE is in good he:dth. The repose, there fore, which the Corsican; iliOnght it expedient to giVe to his Army has been prolonged; and, in all probability, will only be interrupted by his retreat, for we cannot 'bilieVe that, circum stance:Las he is,, he will think of advancing. The • event wh:ch we have longanticipated.his at length taken place ; the-sing of: PRSIA has been re lieved from.the cares of Government, and is de prived of the shadow of power which waa left to him. His Majesty. has been compelled to write a letter to Baron HA. WENBERG, in .which he .sfates, that he dOes not ehooie to be trarubkd with b!giaasi while, he is taking the baths, and therefore authorises the Baron to decide in his name. It is distressing to recollect - , that, in Au; ;Wain, 1805, his Prussian Majesty was.arbiter of the fate of the Continent of Lampe, and that, if -bis councils'hednot been influenced by treachery, the power. Of BTJONAPARTE would have been. crushed for. ever. Since writing the above, we have received French Papers to the Ist inst. from which the fillowing are extracts'.:— : B;;YON•sz, AUG.. 20.--Numerous reinforcements daily pass through this town on their way ro.the army of Portugal.—We are. assured, that in eight or ten days, mow men will pass through our town on the same .destination.

It has been stated in some of the Opposition Prints of this country and Ireland, that Lord .dispC:sed to alter his conduct .re speeting the Irish Roman Catholics; but we are as swied that such a statement is wholly void of foun dation., It must, indeed, be in the recollection of our readers, that the Noble Lord resolutely oppysed a motion roads by the Marquis AVELLE‘LEY last Session, on the Catholic Question ; and, we understand, that whatever . may be the future proceedings of the Legislature on this very portant t!.nd interesting: subject, the conduct of the Noble Viscount will appear to be uniform and consistent. • BITGNAPAR'iE'S family appears at present. in rather an awkward situation.

" The Proclamation . addiesSed by Barclay de- Tully to the Germans, has induced is to make the following observations :-- Russia boasts of always having been upon friendly terms with Germany. It would be asto nishing were it otherwise, because Russia has no immediate point of contact with Germany. Ask the Poles, Turks, and Prussians, who form part of Germany, what have been their relations with Russia, their neighbour, and what adVantages they have derived from her friendship ? It cannot be denied that Russia hat recompensed the talents and industry of the Germans ; but in-doing this, what better means had the Sovereign of Russia of drawing his people from barbarism, than by giving them foreign industry for their =hot' and paten'. ? • " It is a singular allegation, to pretend that this attack does not proceed fro . rn the free-wilt of the Germans—what can be proved from that Nobody can maintain that all the Members of the Confederation of the Rhine are not entirely free in this Confederation.; therefore, what has now happened, is the result of the obligations which they have contracted from their own conviction. Let Russia ask her own soldios, if it. is by their free determination that they carry on the war against the Persians and Turks: . • . . " She excites the Germans to treason, and promises them a recompense, which assuredly would not satisfy those who would be so corrupt as to reply to that appeal. The. recompense she promises would he a punishmeat to all ci'Vilized men. • • • " She concludes by threatening the Germans' with the curses of posterity. He who has at heart tranquility of his Country, the good of the 'State, the support of -vise laws, N, , ho by an attach- • ment to his Prince renounces foreign pay, and sa criftc,es his blood for the Sovereign Who honour ably recompenses him, merits without contradic tion to be blessed by posterity: PostN, AUG. .12.=-The inhabitants of Lublin have replied to the call of Prince jablonowski; and have taken up arm*- with the _most lively en-, thusiasm, to repel the attacks with which they. were threatened by a rash enemy.
