LC)NI')OW, AUGU3T zs, Wg received this morning the Paris Paler., to the 2 - z.l inst. Letters from Hatrover state, that the French Army in that. Elettorate is about to he ;educed to i 2,000 men, and that the remainder, under the command t)lGeneral Mott T E it, is to form a part,of the Arny of England. It is said the Plate in all the Chun. hts is to be given up for the service of the State, or, in other words, forthe use of the French. It is stated in the accounts from the //ague, dated the 16th, that the RatiEcations of the Convention roncluded on the :sth of June last, between the Yiench, Batavian, and Italian Republics, relative to the military operations against England, and the prt tvhic!l the latter Powers ate to take in the War, were executed at mussels on the 24.4 h ult. The Funds are at 55. .va, Tin a g is no part of the praAke or the States men of this country . which Foreignets more admire than the cessation of till party.cliffereoces the mo ment the Country is really thought to be in danger. This general rule .was never exhibited in' a more sti il t i n point of view than in the cour'se . of the last Session of Parliament. Although no general 'idea prevailed of the sufficiency of the Members of the Government for the cfficcs they Ailed, yet the Mi nister had only to propose his measures and they . were adopted—almost all party-spirit and all re. viar opposition was drrived 7 —it seemed to be tacitly agreed that ad Parties were to assist, none impeie or embarrass the measures of Government —Tun 1111-11;4 . 114 of Tarei were voted with ,searc:ely :one dissentient voice—not because these were &opposed to be the best seleacd, but -beeause great exertions wire admitted to be ne cessary, because it was considered to be incon. .sistent with the general feeling to scrutinize tra 'tamely the means proposed for such exertions-7 Energy was universally admitted to be - wanting its the Administration, and even where difrerencei vailed between the Leaders of ditrerentpartigs and the Members of Government - , the objed of the former was •itllllolt invariably to give more efficacy andAnore energy to the measures which were pro. posed ; and' instead of thwarting the plans which the state of the Country called for, and which were tardily and languidly brought forward, the Leaders of the oppoN ft: Parties stimulated Ministers . to every step both of vigour and precaution. If any one lamented the weaktieNs of the Adminibtration, (:Is indeed almost every body did) the anaxer was— " Yes, hot BON Al' mt - re is, at our gates,"—and Mt. Sts e It! DAN, recently bCCOMe the Advocate for an Administratiin which he had before nespisect, which lie had represented as an 4,l;;liaistratLin the bra;at, of cvbich bad been inoeied Oat," advised the'PeOPle emphatically , " not r. 2 ,r/Nri,4 , r with 'WI the Minister, but Wll ER P. rival the. Enemy ?" Since the recess of Parliament the some feeling sccrns to have pre vaile4l. The most patriotic and puSlic.spirited efforts have been m to give effeCt to every, measure which the Administration bad brought forward for the defence Of the N and although the views of the Government upon this, point appelr to have been gepeatedly changed, although one decision upon the subjeft seems scarcely to have been taken before it wit superseded by another, yet this fleauation bas not, ;Intl we tray will not damp the ardour or spirit of the Nation, That same determination to to the hest they can for the Country, whether those in whose bands the teins of Government are intrusted, are stronger or weaker, will we hope still animate the People to such exertions as will repel our present danger, and amply secure our safety and independance. But the greater our danger and the more, citly the Mioislers have been entinsted, the more responsibility attaches upon them. We wish,them to extricate (II from our difficulties ; but without firmness, without decision. without energy, we have no chance of escaping from them. There are not times in which Crbinet after Cabinet should meet without comin&tOt.teCisiol). Iminediately upon the Declaratirm Of War aglitist France, we ;aid W.ir ,hoold also have been declared against iltilland, I,‘ ; ;Jlnst tip,rin, and against the Italian States ; but was giVen to Flolldnd to ge.t ltutne some o 1 her and to send out orders for putting her Cu 4 ,oies irwto a Siatt. of,Dafence, anti. War was th e n i ! ct i,,,, t l---The'ricar ha. pen when the Spanish Possessions are fortined against an Enemy, and her Register Ships are safely arrived in Port, War will then be declared. Spain is and must be our Enemy by the Treaty which exists Iw. tween her and France ; and can we be dupes enough to believe that unde.r buck' circumstan et s the CHI Vlr CoNsUL will consent to her Neutrality ? If- we wished to produce other instances of want of foresight and deckion, we should say, " look to Ilanover;" but w,N rather wish to point to those objeas where such qualities may tend to good, than to I:c:fir to thoSe twerisions where the want of them has been fatal ; and abOve all we say, " look to the State of Ireland"--We ate unwilling to. say, though we know much upon the Subjea, whether the con. duff of Government towards that Country has ex. hibiked precaution, Vigil:lnce or promptitude; but, for God's sake let these qualities be displayed for the future. If •a wavering and unsettled System is adopted with respea to that People, Ireland will be lost to us. From the circumstances of that Coon. try we cannot raise Volunteer Corps in every part of it as we can ,in this, and we must trust to its defence both against internal and 'external Enemies, in 'a great measure to Regular Force. If the flat. terers of Mioisters tell them, as they did through. out the whole of the last-Session of R i trliament, that every thing is tranquil there, and there are but few (or as they were told none) disaffeaed, and if they believe such representations, they are most grossly, and will, we fear, be most fatally deceived. Vie forbear to enter further upon this subjefl, but we know enough from Private and Authentic Cot. respondence to render it our indispeniible duty to exhort Ministers to the .most scriou'i and the most timOyattention to the Affairs of that part of the British Empire ; and we again repeat our earnest recommendation of Circutnspeaion, Firmness, and Decision.

Letters from Brims, received at Vienna on the sth, announce, that all the Merchants trading to Turkey are in the greatest consternation. A Ca. ravan from Germany, after hiving passed Semlin, was pillaged near Constantinople, when they be. lieved themselves in perfed safety. Another Cara. van, destined for Germany, with Turkish and Greek Merchandize, was likewise pillaged near Orsowa, just as it entered the Austrian territory. The write from Belgrade, that the Chiefs of the Janissaries are adding to the number of. their To ►dace of I..cty or sixty attached to each of them, they now reckon two -hundred.
