The Bri tish -does not intend to keep this island; Sardinia seems destined to the Order of IN:lalta, and it Will become in future as . flOuriAing as ki; now the coiltrary. Its position between Africa, and Spain, will secure 'the navigation cif these seas against the robbers of Algieti, and Morocco : las soon us the flag of the Knights a ;it. .1-hu of le-rusalein is hoisted on. the towers' o f C,,gliari, there is no doubt but the African cttuizcrs dill desert those coasts which Will become ail dangerous for them.

There is. the more reason to hope that something will be decided within the next fortnight, as the private conferences between the Sfiverei;os'inkt fregne-it. The crisis cannot be far off% A , certain great State gave its consent to the occupatliin of Saxony in November last. A conference of two. hours, on the 3d of January, het‘recn the two limpertirs, has perhaps decid- ed it. • On the 2d instant, the day after the news of the peace with America, a Courier, With the ul timatum, was dispatched to England. Were it decided that England will not consen't to• the union of Saxony ‘vith Prussia, the Courier would be of no u3e. He is expected back by the 2►th of January ; then Pandora's box %%ill be opened.

The _Chancellor bad . al- ready ascertained that the coffin containing the hoayhad been deposited there in a grave 'ten feet below the surface, filled up with sonic layers Of lime, and afterwards with earth. - lt will be easy to recognise the hotly, the Ecclesiastic who was present at the burial having declared the King w i )re a vest of silk, with a purse in the pocket • containing some piecvs of mono/. There i < a lokg article in the Journal des Debars • of the 19th, from the pen .of M. Dc Chateau briand, .ou the subject of the proposed celebration of the anniversary of the death of Louis XVI. Atter a variety,of rcacetions tending to that France, both from PrHciple and the example o f -oihernations, well as of its own in other tiMes; is bou n d to inakcsOme expiation of that calamit ons event, he proceeds to describe the intended "Cerriuouy, nearly in the following teems : On the 21.,t of Jantriry, Monsieur, the D o ke irkngouleme, and the Didie,of Berry, will repair to the Nlag . dalen ing-ground , iww bdonging D.e.cloreanx.

The earth will not be removed till the moment of 'exhumation. No part of this holy act should be secret all France saw the King die; all Fratice..should witness at the .same mo ment: the re ! ..aiyearanee of his mortal remnants. Ah ! what will tint the spectators feel when the earth shall be -reuved, and expose to view the whitened bones of -Louis XVI:, , his mutilated trunk, his.head displaced and lying at the othei' extremity of his body,—a sign by which the de seenclant of so many Kings is to be recognised "[be sacred relics of the King, as, well 'as the ashes of the Queen, being found, the coin pail will proceed towards St. Denis. The‘mis iortunes of Louis.XVl. will constitute _ the sole twignificence of this funeral pomp. It will stop at the church of the Apostle of. France. But in those _subterraneous akodes, where sleep so nem , / Kings and Prinees,--4n those gloomy regions, where the ranks of the dead were so close that them: was scarce spout to be found for Henrietta ok . England,—there Louis XVI. will now be found acme ! How is it that so many of the dead have been carried away.? Why is" St. Denis deserted.? Let us rather ask why its roof was rebuilt ; why its altar is still standing ? Whose baud was it than prepared these vaults and empty tombs? The baud of that man who was- seat ed On the throne of the Bourbons. . Mark the way+ of Providence ! He thought he was prepar ing sepulchres for his own race, and he was hut building the tomb of Louis XVI. i n one and the same moment this _Lord of the Earth tails in the midst of Iti's violence, Lours XVIII. reassumes'ilis sceptre, and Louis i; restored to the burying place of his fathers ! As soon as the mortal remains of i s ouis XVI. and :Maria Antoinette - shall be deposited at St ; Denis, will be laid the first stone of n fliontt mem, which i 5 to_ be erected in the Place Louis XV: _ This monument will represent Louis XVI. in front the earth tumaras the act of springing eterna l a bode. An angel supports and guides him, and seems to repeat to him these inspired words " Son of St. Louis, ascend to 'leaven." On one side of the pedestal will appear a bust of the .Queen in a medallion, having' fur i ts exerve those words so worthy the .wife of Louis the Sixteenth—" 1 bave known all, I• bave seen all, and hare forgotten all." Our another front of the pedestal will be seen a portrait is has-relief of Madame tlizabeth. These words will be wri 1,.11 roun d it.—" Do not undeceive theni ;" ! --so- • blitne words which she tittered on the 20th day of J une , when the assasnis threatened her life, mis taking her for the Queen. On the third side will be engraved the testament of Louis XVI. where will be read in the largest characters, that sentence. breathing the spirit of the Gospel--." I pardon my enemies with all my livatt." The fourth side will bear the arms of France, with thiS inserip tion,—Louis XVIII. to Louis XVI. All French men, no d ou bt, will solicit the honour of uniting to-the name of Louis XVIII, the name of France, which can never be separated from its King. This AOll not be the only monument conse crated to misfortune and repentance. A chapel will be built .on the.ground Of the Magdalen bury ing-place.. -On the side of the street d'Anjou, it will represent an ancient tomb. The entrance to• it 'will be .placed in a new street about to be mode. To cover the better thedifferent graves, the entire edifice will•be. in the form of a Latin by a dorm;, which shall sitter only a dial religious light to penetrate throng!, it. In all parts of the monument will be placed altars,' wit ere each individual may go to mourn a mother, brother, a sister, a wife, in short, all those faith. fol victims- who for 20 -years have slept 'near their master in this deserted ground ; there, too, par - ticular honours will be paid to the memory of M. de Malesherbes. We shall be pardoned for asso ' elating here the 'name of the subject with the re collection of the Sovereign. There is in death, in misery,' and virtue, something which assimilates all ranks. The Kiug «•ill found a perpetual Mss in this chapel : two priests . will -he charged 'With the care of - the lantl►s and the altars. At St. Denis, 'an other institution more considerable will be founded in the name of Louis XVI., in favour of those infirm bishops and priests, who, after a long apostleship, have need of rest from their holy la hours. They will replace the religious order which used tu.watch over the ashes of our kings. These old me►+, front their age, their gravity, and their services, will become the nat►n al 'guardians of this asylum of the dead, whither they are themselves so soon to descend. It is ; further in tended to restore to this ancient abbey the tombs which once decorated it, near which Suer caus ed our history to be written, as iu the presenee of death and truth. During the funeral solemnity, Madame Nvill re tire to Cloud. We have said that the Princes will accompany the ashes of Louis XVI. to St. Denis : the King alone will remain at Paris, to confide his grief to his people, tomingle consola tion with our tears, and to sweeten tke bitterness of our regret - 1)y his venerable presence, • EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM' PARIS, JAN.I6, 1815. . " The Commissioners appointed - by the British Government, to- examine, ascertain, and bring forward the claims of our merchants upon the French Treasury, have met so many evasions and deliberate obstructions in the prosectition of this jot and essential object, that the Duke Of Welling ton has addressed a peremptory Nute to the French Ministry, desiring that. since it is their evident. detetinination to withhold the payment to which so many British subjects ate entitled, and which which was so. solemnly stipulated by the Treaty of Paris, they will forthwith refund to Great Britain the 'amount of her demand for the Maintenance of French prisoners . - of Ivar,—the •excess c f i c hi c h above the - French 'demand upon us, is not less than seven millions sterling." SUN-OFFICE, lIALF-rAir ONE o'CLoclc. We stop the Press to announce the receipt at our Office of Vienna Papers to the 12th inst. and it is important to know that, up to that, date, no- thing Official, or otherwise, respecting the Con- gress, had transpired through the medium of the Public Press. This is three days later than the news from the Pa►;is _Papers, and we can only account for the absolute harrcnness.of the Cowl Gdzette; and Atts- Irian Observer, by suppusifflig that until final ar- i•aagetaents are to be communicated, they are re= strieted to silence tyoa these diplomatic pro- ceedings. We have letters from Lisbon of the 31st ult. and sire happy to say that Mr. CANNING had re covered from his attack of gout, and had been introduced to the Regency, to deliver his creden tials. There is nothing else al, public interest in our connnuuications. We understand that the noted Baron D'lmnEnT, accompanied by a King's Messenger, has been safeiy landed in France. This is the second in stance of his being sent out of the Country ; the . first occurred in ISO 7, when the preseut Earl of LIVERPOOL was at the Head of the Hottie De partment. WAre convinced that, with the ex ception of Mr. Jolts JOSEPH DILLow, there is not a person in the Kingdom to whom this Man was at all known, who does not applaud and re joice at the order for his ('eparture. We lament to learn tliht none of his three Friends, viz. Mr. DILLON, the private friend, Mr. BRotiGnAm, the legal friend, and. Chronicle, the typo friend, took our hint to go with him for the good of their Country, in tvhich case the old Epi gram on a Gentknum transported to Botany Ray might have heen har.pily. revived " Trne PatriOts for be it understood, They left their Country for their Country's good." A Morning Paper Which lip in our mind been very intemperate in its phillippies about the Treaty of Ghent, and the Naval disgrace and dis comfiture of Great Britain, rends a sort of recan- tation this morning, in these words : " Whilst we are speaking •f reverses sustained by our naval farces, we must not omit to correct a wilful misrepresentation which has been often made of our sentiments on this subject. — We have -said that the maritime reputation of Great Britain hag been shaken,—that her arms have been disgraced,—vot surel) with reference to the indiVidual conduct of our seamen., who in the most tinfortunate cases have displayed an heroic bravery ; but because reputation is not a matter of det A ail; because foreign nations, and particularly the Americans themselves, will look only to the great result ; because, with a nary beyond all comparison superior to our anta gonists, we have suffered them to carry off from us the palm of triumph, not once or twice, 'but almost without exception when we have met them ship to ship, or squadron to squadron.'.' We confess that we are not logicians enough to be able to comprehend. these fine distinctions. The angry. and fretful ebullition of hostility against the Admiralty carried the Writer of these tirades too far, •and the following paragraph from one of his rows last week, will prove that there was, at least, no " wilful misrepresentation " i n the. construction put upon his sentiments, though it is not easy to penetrate the precise meaning of such flighty stuff; :- " Alt►s ! We have been compelled to witness not only the frustration of ibis hope, hut the ele vation of our calumniators and assassins to the height of insolent exultation, on the ruins of our maritime greatness. The navy, of Britain is dis graced for ever : and, oh ! shame the fame of the • ti'sz.so is eclipiati iy the vaunts of ne vulgar Lrag,gart ItonGtits ! ! !" . Our last page contains such a description of the Catholick Seceders as the Dublin Post, the Organ of the Mob or Insurrectionary Faction, chuses to give of those who arc in. favour of the Veto, refer Conciliation to Revolution, and Amelioration at home to Emigration. - Lord FINGAL and die higher class of the Roman Catholicks, -.rho have some interest in, the settlement of.this great ques tion, appear to possess penetration enougi► to avoid being made the dupes of those turbulent agitators, who have nothing to gain or lose any measure adopted cr rejected,, a►►d who would rather.that distraction should continue than be abated. Our Readers will judge for themselves whether the characters' mutually given of each other by the " fretoists," and the " Unqualified Einanci potion Carders, Shanavests," &c. are or are not correct. A final Meeting took place at Lord FINGAL'I On the 17th, when Mr. SHIELS' and all the other Petitio►►s were rejected on a report :ro►n the Com mittee, and the following Resoibition proposed by Mr. O'CONNELL agreed to : " That we do renew our earnest Petitions to the Legisla ture for the total and "unqualified repeal of the Penal sta tuVs which aggrieve and degrade the Catholics of Ireland." A debate took place on this vote, and on a di vision npon the propriety of introducing the word " Unqualified" in the Resolution, there appeared For the ItesOlution 9 Against it yes—Messrs. O'Connell, Segrave, O'Gorman, Mahon, M'Manus, O'Brien, O'Hara, Blake, and Lyons. Noes—Messrs. It. M'Donnell, Shiel, and Lube. Lord FINGAL also disti.ented, but does not ap pear 1 . have voted. The next day there was a. Meeting at Capel-street Chapel, when a' Petition, drawn' up by Mr. ENEAS BiIACDONNELL, of:Cork, (one of the Agitators) was adopted, 'and an Ag gregate Meeting sity,moned for net Saturday. It was.debated whether the honour of presenting this hot Pet;tition should not be withdrawn from Lord DotsiouGxmoßE and Mr. GRATTAN, and conferred: upon the more worthy Duke of SUSSEX and WHITBREAD ! !

A British Commissary, we learn, had arrived at Cadiz from England. From recemt , representatinats, made to the Spanish Govera.= mew - , a new decree was published, and sent to the several . Customhouses throughout Spain, charging the slum duties upoa' French manu factures as are now /aid upon BritiSh, and there- . by placing both nations in this respect on an equal footing. The Spanish Government have also . called upon all the merchants who have hitherto obtained the passing of French goods through. the Custom-houses, on the paymtnt of duties ill ► conformity to the Treaty of 1792; to • pay up the , deficiency thereon of 82 1,3 d per cent. which, had not been demanded in the first instance, through an oversight. The merchants were pre-', paring to comply with this order. Trade war much revived at Cadiz, and in other parts of Spain. The holders of British goods; why by a former decree of Government were ordere4 either to dispose of them, or export them by' a certain date (we believe time first of January), have , ()bolded a further indulgence, and are - lowed two months longer for the disposal or ex portation of their goods. Fresh accounts bad ar rived at Cadiz from New Spain to' the 2d Nov., Letters to,that date had been received from Vera Cruz, which mention that more money was about I to be shipped off to the mother' country. Every thing was tranquil in New Spain. This late date sets completely at rest the intelligence from NeW Spain by the way of Carthagena, that the eolonisti had declared their independence. . • Recent letters from Calais mention that Lady HarmutoN was in such had state of health, that it was thought impossible for her to recover. • Letters have been received from Genoa, date(' the Gth of this mouth the aroops expect orders to proceed to Malta.
