However, it would be a great point to burn all their vessels. NAESTRICHt, Auc 14.—Would it be believed that there are still to be tound in our country men blind enough to the political state of Eu fope, iiiur of the Netherlands in partictllar, to dare to manifest in public their attichnient to gin order - of things Which so long caused gene ral Are We not rather entitled to suppose that such madness can be only the fruit of th'e'rettlifig of 'that multitude of seditious writ ittg's with which audacious foreigners inundate Belgium in order to.flatter the guilty hopes of etch.. adherents ? HAOUP,, AVG:I4.—A report has been Made by Str. NVasseige, from a CoMmittee appointed to flifsi'cluler the. representations 'ot one Simon, who complarns of being imptisoned at Luxer»hurg, the'revest of the French Gnvernment, and de alined in contravention of the fundamental law. The Committee was of opinion that the complaint . did not come within the jurisdiction of the Cham ber. On this subject M. Gendebien expressed a ticish of making a motion in a Secret Committee. - 1 -Th proposal gave rise to some debates. At leiwb, on the request of a great number of Meru- hers, the President formed the Chainber into a `Secret entnmittee: The Sienr'Simon is a French , man, and it was on the demand of France that •he was arrested. From the debates to which his Petition hare given rise, we learn that he is ac- cosec) of having enguged in a plot against his Go vernment in July, NH') ; that he took refuge in this kingdom ; and that he is now claimed by the French authorities. VIENNA, Atm. 10.-13 y a Patent published here the Emperor directs the Provinces recovered by virtue of the Conventions concluded with the Allied Powers, namely, Carnioia, the circle of V%lsach Gorice, the maritime coasts, the ancient. liitterat of Hungary and that territory which formed part of the province of Croatia, with the s4dition eat the districts of Cividale and Gravisca, which were comprised in the kingdom of Italy.' together with the circle of Clagenfurt, hitherto belonging to Lower Austria, to be formed into 3 kthg►ldnl to he CAUCti the kingdom of lilyria, and to be diViited in two Government,. It is now ktsowti, with certainty, that the Emperor will not proceed either tO 'Deeplitz or Carlsbad. VI ANIMA?, Ana. 17.—The epoch of the 'opening of the Diet of the Germanic Confedera tion is still uncertain, It will not take place in the course of this month, and there is even little pro isbility that the sittings will be opened next month. Every thing announces that the great digestions respecting the future fate of Germany will be decided beforehand by Austria and Prussia, and that the opening of the Diet will not take place till these two Powers shall have agreed re specting the future constitution of Germany. It is not yet known what communications have been made by Austria and Prussia to Bavaria, Wurtern berg, and the Princes of the second order. Rome, Ana. 6:—The filte of the Holy Cross was celebrated here with the usual pomp, accord. ins to the grand solemnities of the church. 4 A numerous orchestra executed, during the office, music worthy of angels. The corps diplomatique, a great number of cardinals, all the prelacy, and a great many strangers, assisted at mass. The Royal Family of Spain, and time Ambassadors of France and Portugal were present. FLANDERS MAIL.

I9.---We'Learn from the French frontiers tbal the third line o custom-bowes already organized, and that the officers do their duty with uncommon strictness, and seem parti cularly to guard against the introduction of }3ri tisb and Netherlands woven goods. The troops of the Army of Occupation, when they assist in stopping them, receive a fifth part of the value, and this has several time happened, among other's, to the Danish troops. On the coast the officers are extremely vigilant In preventing the operations of the British smugglers, who very frequently come to the coast in the night with prohibited goods. In the north of France all is now quiet ; in some places several persons who were in prison or under the surveillance of the Police have been again set at liberty. The .French Government has excepted from the general prohibition two Netherland Journals published here. BausseLs, Auo. 21.—Besides the line of for tresses destined to cover our country on the South side, between the Meese and the sea, a line is to he made between Maestricht and Namur, on both . banks of the Meese. The town of Nuy is to be included in this line, and the citadel of Liege it is said is to be strengthened. The Field-Marshal very minutely noted all these positions, and it se:oni, that tine plan for the defenCe of the Meese ' will be more speedily execnted than was lately supposed. The Field-Marshal on his arrival at Valenciennes bad a short interview with the English Commandant, General Colville, and immediately went on to Cambray, where hr. in tended to stop a short time. The regiments of Cuirassiers, Dragoons, and. Hussars which arc organized at Lille, Dourly, and ArraS, have received within these few days the necessary horses and ntany recruits, a considerable part of wlnom are old soldiers ; so that it is cal culated that these several corps, which are . ani mated with a very good spirit, will soon be com plete. The Northern Departments still furnish many recruits for the Royal Guard. The Minister at War inns ‘taitten a circular letter to the Pre fects, in which he sap that his Majesty feels a Pleasure in being surrounded by his children from the northern Provinces,' who have never ceased to give proofs of attachMent to his person. VIENNA, Auo. IL—According to a letter writ ten from .Jassy, by an Austrian subieet, there is every reason to•he satisfied with then etlOrts of the Atirosau of. the Grand Signor, issued in February last. The navittittion on the Danube from 13e1- grade to the Black Sc* is no longer impeded' by the arbitrary proceedings of the Pinches. CAsseL, Aun. 16.—A little difference has arisen between our Ci;urt and that of Prussia.' As M. Von liaettlein, the Prussian Minister to our Court, hos been appointed to. the office of Minister trout that Monarchy to the Diet at Frankfurt, , his Ma jesty the King has named M. Von Zastion to be his successor here. The Elector, for , reasons which are not known, has not confirmed this choice by his approbation, and has requested that Prussia would appoint some other Minister to reside here. But the King has insisted that M. Von Zaition shall remain at his post, the Elector has recalled his Minister from Berlin, and thus we are on'the point of seeing the diplomatic relations between the two States cease. . CONSTANTINOPLE, JULY 10.--On the sth of this month died, of a sudden but natural death, the Prince Alexander Morousi, formerly the Hospodar of Moldavia, who was universally esteemed, and was also in'high favour with the Porte. Two of his brothers perished antler the bands of the executioner, and the third was mur. dared. Thus be died almost at the same time as his former companion and colleague, Prince Ypsilanti, who died on the 8111, at Kiow. The Mufti, who was discharged and banished a few months ago, is now pardoned, and has re turned to Constantinople: The plague has now penetrated to 13njiiktlere, whither the Foreign Ambassadors had retired from Pisa. On the day when the French Ambassador, the Marquis de lit Riviere, paid a visit to the Reis Effendi, the Interpreter Deval, who attended hiM, fell sick and soon after died. But before this, symptoms, of the dreadful disease had *hews them selves its die hotel of the Russian EMbassy, and the sick gardener of the Prince Italinsky had been sent to the Lazaretto. 'The inhabitants of the whole neighbourhood are in anxious expectation, The audience of the Theatre des Varietes, at Paris, lii been gratified with the re-appearance of ,the Farce called Les AugWises:pour Eire. It was prohibited by the Police last year, in conse quence of the vary decisiye manner In which a party of English Officers expressed their indigna tion, during the perforManee, at the merciless ri dicule with which they saw their country-woinep covered in this piece. 'e have Paris and Dutch Papers. The former mention the arrival of the Duke of WELLINGTON, and indulge us with another history of American proceedings off Algiers, and of Gallo.ltalian opi nions relating to the Barbary Powers. This his tory says, very oddly, that " the English do not protect the Powers of Italy in so effectual a man ner as they could protect themselves," but we are 'not informed when the English Government suc ceeded to the Protectorate of Italy, nor told one syllable of the Cui bort° fur which we are to un dertake so expensive' and troublesome and so thankless an office. But, if we really are, with. out our knowledge, placed in thiS political Chair of universal sovereigntyove are certain that there has been nothing done to prevent those whom we fail in protecting sufficiently from doing a little to protect themselves. The Dutch Papers treat principally of the mili tary measures pursuing in the North of France to complete the military force, and extend the line of customs ; and of the building of fortresses on the side of Belgium. The differences between Cartel and Prussia seem rather to be increased than diminished. One of the greatest evils of war is its tendency .o demoralize the human race. The horrid crimes which it is the daily talk of the Journalist to re cord, afford but a too pregnant proof that such has been the fatal consequence of the protracted struggle which has in our time desolated the world. kis appalling to contemplate the increase anti the aggravation of crime. The observer of men and mannets not many years ago felt Out monstrous atrocities were.through becoming less frequent, and though it mi g h t b e argued, that there was gener , ally a greater laxity of morals, still the aggregate of guiltiness fell far short of tliat of preceding and less enlightened periods. NOW unhappily the Case is reversed, and we appear to be replunging into an age of barbarism almost unparalleled. Ireland, fruitful in murders, has recently stained her a nnals inure bloodily than ever by the frightful combinations and demoniac coldness which mat ked the assas sination of Mr. BM:AM, and of Dit.Low and his wife, as disclosed at recent trials. France, in addition to her mass of treasim,. treachery, and villainy, teems with parricides ;' and one's heart sinks when we read of 4 mother, with an infernal accomplice, burying her child alive. Germany, uncorrupted so long,and preserving so much of primeval simplicity, has yielded to the contagion; and the calendar of human wickedness has re centlY'contained some dreadful instances of her corruption. Italy is Over-run with- robbers and ASSaSSiOS, and, in short, it is not possible to cast the eye upon a nation in Europe which does not display the lamentable evidences of the deteriorat- ing effect of war upon our SIWC iCS. England par takes of the universal depravation. Scarcely a dety passes which does not discovir some new iniquity of unheard of magnitude, some damned rehnement in crime at which nature shudders. The late conspiracies, many recent murders, tl►e general prevalence of vicious and disorderly habits, yield a proof too melancholy of the truth of this statement. • Under these circumstances it is the foremost duty of our Rulers, and of all persons of infinence, to arrest as► much as possible the further progress of this moral pestilence,. and we remark with great satisfaction the zealous and excellent measures adopted in matry-instances for this purpose. But we have thrown a general coup d'teil over the • times, chiefly for the [impose of appealing to the hearts o(those who are exerting themselves so strenuously at this Ira to exasperate and inflame the lower orders of the People. There is, God knows 1 a sufficient intlination and tendency to • evil in the mass, and the irritation of temporary suffering predisposes it to be peculiarly and dreado fully affected by the arts of the mischievous at such a moment. We pray them then, if they can look forwar(llo the bor'rors they tr;:s.:,' cans? ; it :I;r7 can feel for the state or wretchedness, unim.hy, and desohiiion with ‘'‘..hitf) . snet.t. s in th - eir pursuit would overwhet,ii thenisclres and their' country----we do titost at . :xintstd!( them ttr pause. It not tliliicolt to but kOmost . ; poasible to allay the storm. I,s men, „as 1 ;ooti Citizens, as Christians, it is lle 41;ity of all Britons to soften the 'ruggedness of the human conditiod at this trying inotnent—and minl is his respon. sihility, and merciless his soot, who defies this wartiiitg, and still endeavours to plunge the it don into tebelliou mid misery. • trgttua papers arrived on Saturday to the 22d of July. The Indiana Convention had agreed, by 37 to 4, to accept the ter m s of incorporation with the union offered by the Congress. Croydon, a place about 25 miles from Louisville, is to be the seat of Goverment ; and the election of the Officers of the new State was to take plaCe on the Ist static. The act of last Session of Cong,ress, lty - which the per diem compensaticin of the Members was changed into a permanent and fixed salary, is condemned by all parties. The Legislatures of. New Hampshire and Rhode Island have passed several soluti!ms against it. The Grand Jury of Wilkescoutity. itt Georgia, have iepresented it as nuisance; and in Kenthcky the candidates fur tlit new elections to Congress cannot procure a pro• mise of a vote without pledging themselves to iti repeal. The loss of the export trade to tl.e British \Vest India Colonies in American bottoms ad mitted to be severely felt by all the inhabitants of the seFt•ports. It employed about 131,123 ton* of shipping ; and the exports, on an average of ten years, amounted to about five millions and g half of dollars. The extensive tract of land lately flooded at New Orleans was completely parched • up towards the end of June, in consequence of the extreme heat and dryness of the Nv eather for three weeks prior to that period. At the northerai entretnity of the Union, the cold weather con-'. tinned, and vegetation had suffered to much, that great lean were entertained for the harvest. The PRINCE.
