We are enabled to state positively to our Readers, that the pegociation for the introduction of the Mar quis WELLESLEY and Mr. CANNING into the Admi nistration has broken off. Lord LIVERPOOL has been appointed First Loid of the Treasury,. and Mr.l74Ku SIT.TART Chancellor of the Exchequer. The Office of Secretary of State for the War and Colonies is not yet filled up, btit it is generally believed that Lord BATHURST Will be appointed. We this day present our Readers with further extracts from the French Papers. The war may now be considered as commenced between Russia and Fiance. BUONAPARTE,i on quilting Paris, an not_intl.l that it was his intention to review his army on the Bank; of the Vistula.. The Monileur does noi, incited, contain any violent inveaives against the Emperor of RUSSIA, nor any of those boastful threats which he threw out before the com- mencement of the war against Austria in 1606, or against Prussia ►n 1806. Indeed the uni- form series of defeats which his arms have sus- tained, when opposed to British troops, in the Pe ninsula, seems to have bad a wonderful effect in - curing BUONAPARTR of the lofty and contemp tuous tone in which he used formerly to in dulge towards his adversaries. Bet though the Alonite4r does not COotaip any abuse, or even any , declaration of hostility against the Emperor of RUSSIA, the movemeoli. of the French troops are sufficiently explicit.' All that part of the French army that was stationed at Berlin, and in the vi cinity, has moved towards the Polish fron tiers. All the French Marshals, with the, excep tion only of SOULT 'and SUCHET, have joined the Northern Army. Even MoRAT has set out from Naples, (to wh:ch place we prediCt that be never will return) for the same purpose.— The Emperor of AUSTRIA iS to have an inter view, as we before stated, with BUONAPARTE, at Dresden. The Einpre,s , of AUSTRIA and MARIA LOUISAAViII accompany them. The Austrian troops are in motion, but such is the general aversion throughout the Austrian Empire to an alliance with, France, I bat we do not suppose they will take a much more active or effeClive part against Russia,,than the Russians did against the Austrians in the campaign of 1809. Thecontest that is about to commence must be dreadful and sabguinary ; it would be idle to specu late upon its probable result. We can only express an ardent hope, that the man who has, by his, am bition, his perfidy, and his cruelty, covered Europe with blood and misery, may br. frustrated in all the plans which he has formed to extend and perpe tuate the wretchedness which he has created. The Moniteur of Bth contains a translation of the British declaration respeCting the repeal of the Or tiers in Council, upon any official notification of the revocation of the Berlin and Milan Decrees. The Pioniteur, according to its usual practice, annexes notes to different passages. The question as to :the public revocation of the Decrees is altogether .evaded. Much comrnendat:ou is bestowed up on the reasoning of the American negociators, and the decision of the AmeriCan Executive. It is re markable that the Moniteur retorts upon us the al ternative put in the Declaration, by Stating, that, as the Berlin and , Milan Decrees were respeclively acts of reprisal for Mr. Fox's Order of Blockade of Ole Ludt of May, 1806, and the Orders in Council of November, J 807 , they will, of course, tall to the ground, if the Orders for which they were reprisals, be repealed. Yesterday morning the LORD CHANCELLOR, Earl of LIVERPOOL, Lord CASTLEREAGH, MT. CANNING, and Mr. SHERIDAN, had audiences of the PRINCE REGENT. Monday night, at a late lwur , the M ar q uisses W EL LESLEY and HERTFORD had audiences of the pRINCE REGENT, at Carlton-house for a consider able time.

The Countess Dowager of Coax entertained a filshionable party yesterday, at her house in New kullingtou-street.
