POLITICAL MEMENTO, &C. by a Partianzentary Re porter. WTe return with much pleasure to the Politica . Memelito, through which we had proceeded in . alphabetical order till • we arrived at Lord'Greg ville.•-crhe blunders, the folly, the empty preten sions, and - the•presumptiOn of the Party becomes irrisistibli luciferous 'when clothed in his Lord ship's lofty phrase, and sounding periods. What was merely comic in the flippant and flimsy baga • teller of the Minores Gentes .(ttlias.lifinority) is in- express-ibly absurd in the pompous stile and os ro tundum of this stupendous Leader. What was his Lordship's opinion of the Spanish contest in 1809 ? In the debate on , the Address, be dicta - - .tonally pronounces, " With the Pyrenees un locked, and the road between Paris and Madrid as open as that between Paris 'and Antwerp, there was nothing which could justify our sending into the interior of Spain thirty orfortv thousand Bri tish men to meet an army of 500,000. can only compare such a measure to . the far-famed march to Paris, to which it is fully equal in wild ness and absurdity." We have lived, thank Heaven to see both of these absurdities realihed ! " Measures of vigour," continues his Lordship-, " also will be necessary ; but these measures ought to be adopted under the guidance of wisdom and prudence, and care taken not to waste our resources in quixotic schemes, which it is im possible to accomplish, and where failure is preg nant with calamity. 'Our army, brave and well disciplined, and capable as it is of doing every thing which men can be expected to perform, will, in these times, find ample employment in securing our own defence. Impressed with this opinion, it is with the deepest pain that 1 reflect upon the actual situation of so large a proportion of the military force of the country, wantonly com mitted. in a hopeless ,contest, in which success cannot be,the reward of, valour, however eminent, and where a safe retreat is all that the most brit : lint exertions can. reasonably be expected.to ef fect ! !—I have no hesitation whatever in declaring it to be my most decided opinion,- that if the system hitherto acted upon befartherpursued, and the whole armed force of the Country sent into the interior of Spain, the destruction of this Monarch is inevitable and that weishall soon be reduced to the same condi tion with Prussia, and the conquered-Slates, of the Continent.'.' In another Debate, about a week after the for mer, this penetrating Statesman thus speaks-of Buonaparte's moral certainty of subjugating Spain, and of his great desire to have all the British Army sent to that Country to be consumed by this Dragon :—" A most'horrible and atrocious usur tation nad been set tip in that country and, un ortunately, the Ruler of France possessed the DI .ins of carrying his plan into effect ; be Went to Spa in with a moral certainly of effecting his ob ject, And, no doubt, was sincere in his - wish tkat a large British Army Might be landed in Spain, he having in his hands the means by which' the great object he had in view might. be attained, and which he actually had attained in the course of two months—the subjugation of Spain. With this great object in view, and a moral certainty of attaining it," &c. In his Reply, at the end of this Debate, his Lordship thus states his opinions, and gives us cause to rejoice for ever in the happy determination which excluded hint from office, 'where they might have been acted upon to the rein of the Country, which opposite Counsels have saved , :—" He declared sincerely, that there was not single measure adopted by 2,linisters, which had he been in their situation, he would have thought he acted right in resorting to ; apd he was equallyLpersnadetl, there was not one step l ie w ou ld have recommended which they would have adopted. He did not refer to Spain alone ; he alluded to their whole conduct since they were entrusted with the management of affairs." Nor had his Lordship become more enlightened in 1810. On moving an Amendment to the Ad dresS, on the opening of that Session; he says, My Lords, I have often repeated, and must now r peat . it again, \ that the true poli c y of'. this u u Co ntry, nder its present ciretin:stances, is the principle of husbanding our resources, and acting Lanier a system of home defence. In the early period of.the last war; the system of poliCY which then appeared `to be best, Was essentiallydifftifent. If %vas undoubtedly then of importance tor:,eadea your to raise up, a determined spirit in Europe, capable of meet-ing and coun-terac-tine the poWer of France. After, however, France had defeated and broken the. confederacy, against her, the scene of continental co-peration closed, and Our force' became no longer available to any useful purpose upon the Continent. The same causes operated in the present war, acid the-late Ministers, acting •.upon the system of policy which they thought the most advisable, determined to concentrate all the means and resources of the country, for the pur pose of placing her in a position in which we might say, to France, our situation is such that we are completely defended against any domestic insult, whilst our naval superiority will effectually defeat the execution of your designs agiust our external interests.' For this pnrpose,'a plan was devised, adapted to our linancial system, under the operations of which we might have gone on to the end - of' time, still preserving' our com manding attitude, and ever and invariably main taining our ample means of defence: His Ma jesty's present Ministers came into ofiite, and then, /my ,Lords, the system was immediately changedd. We were then told, in high-sounding periods, in the true spirit of au imbecile confi dence, of the disgrace sustained in the character of the Country by not assisting our Allies, and that the conduct of the preceding Administration should only be looked to as a beacon and a:land mark to avoid the same course."—Thank Heaven ! again we repeat, thank Heaven ! this noble con. : fidence, miss-named imbecile," by an imbecile Opposition, has been persevered in despite of their abuse—the fruits of it are before the Country ! ! Of the Government which has so gloriously conducted us to peace and security, hear his , Lord ship's character Can you look for its deliver ance to the Government ? See it, my .Lords, broken distracted, incompetent, incapable of ex erting any energy, or of inspiring any confidence. It is not. front the Government, then, that our de liveranee is to be expected." „.. C"l'c be continued.) FRENCH PAPERS. RASTAD-T, JUNE .—The Austrian Staff *as dissolved on its arrival in Germany. The. Gen eralissimo, Prince Schwartzenberg; has ciuitted the Austrian Army,. which has now no Commandant in-Chief.

PARI3, JUNE H.—The Duke of Angouleme, whose departure was delayed for a few days, set off this day to visit the Ports of the Ocean. By virtue of an Ordonnance of the 13th June,. all the merchandize e and 'specie deposited in the Custom-houses, as a secutity for exportation by virtue \of licenses, and the submissions made upon this subject, are annulled. M. Labrader, Counsellor of State to his Catho lick Majesty and Envoy Plenipotentiary to the Congress at Vienna, has been at .Paris for some' days. He is a t th e Hotel of the Saxon Legation.

On the 16th of this month, a Deputation of eighty faithful, Royalists and large,Proprietors of the Province of Maine, had the hOnour of being' resented to the King. Among the Members of the Deputation were the , Prince of Talmont, the Counts of Monttnerency, Vetraye, de Maille, &c. and the Chief of Division Tranquille, upon whose head Buunaparte had set a price. This brave Vendean had taken arms, and assembled his people for th► restoration of the King, before the dethronement of Buonaparte took plate. . All his ambition was to see the King of France, and to'speak to him ; but, when he was introduced, he • could only say, .`,`:o ! my King!" The King spoke . to him with great kindness', , This affecting 4 , re:ie. drew forth tears from all the spectators. The 'Chamber of Deputies were occupied - With a discus sion upon the claims of several Members to a seat - in that Chamber (Frenchmen born, bu,t tepreseut ing Departments now ceded.) Their, various claims were referred to the Committee,' to whom the case of M. Deodati is referred.

COPENHAGEN, JUNE 4.—His Majesty, by a rescript of the `. ( '.3d May, orders, that from that day; privateers of the Allied Powers, furnished with letters of marque, shall be admitted Into our ports as the French privateers were. They may bring in their prizes, provided they do not contain Danish goods, if the Owner be not a Dane, and if the ,crew be not composed of Danes ; in that case the vessel is to be de tained. Baron Begot, formerly Minister of Westphalia, has set out for England. PARMA, JUNE 4.—lt appears by letters from Vienna, that her imperial Highness the Arch- duchess Maria Louisa, Duchess of Parma, :will quit the capital of Austria to return to her States as soon as her father returns., The Palace of Colorne, at Parma is preparing for her reception.. LISLE, JUNE 18.—There was a dreadful fire at Marseilles on the 12th instant, in which 19 houses were consumed. Pails, JUNE 21.--,The decoration Of the Legion of Honour has undergone some changes.

Thus by means of these acquisitions Prussia will have a Magnificent mili tary'frontier on the side of the Rhine ; ,it will surround and govern by its influen c e- all Lower Germany ; that is to say,: all the Provinces where the Saxon Law .formerly prevailed, and which, according to the Golden Bull, were subordinate in tinies 7f interregnum to the Lieutenant of the Emperor m Saxony. According to the game sys 7 tent Southern Germany will remain, as hereto fore, under the influence of Austria. MVI4ICH, JUNE 12. - --The Emperor of Austria set_,Coilt this morning for Vienna.. • COPENHAGEN, JUNE 3.—lt is thought that this kingdom is about to receive a new• Constitution. The law called Royal prohibits the Monarch,.un der penalty of dethronement, from ceding any por tion of territory, and th e Ki ng h av i ng ceded Nor way, the Constitution is thereby violated. On the other side the-succession to the Throne is de... - . ranged by the solemn abdication 'of Prince Chris tian. It is thought that by means ofa new Con stitution the Crown may be made to pass to the Princess Royal, daughter of the King. SLESWICK, JUNE B.—The new King of Nor= way has demanded of the Commissioners of the. Allied Powers, whether they have letters of cre dence to him and the Norwegian Government ? Their answer not being satisfactory, he has re fused them passports for the interior, until they have received letters of credence. These Com-. missioners, it is. thought, `are stopped Frede rickshall, the first town of Norway. Tim- Swedish anti!, will attack Norway, at the same time, on the side of Wermelarrd and on that of Drontheim. It will be assembled about the end of July. It consists of about 40,000 effective men, but it is short of provision's. Messrs. 11a)tlausen and Rosencrantz are the persons who guide Ivrinee Christian; the tine a native of Holstein, the other a Norwegian. MANHEnt,.JUWE !4.--11 wCare to believe some persons who pretend to he Informed upon the 'subject, by virtue of the Treaty concluded in 1813, between Austria, the Allied Powers, and Bavaria, the latter Power is to cede a part of the' Tyrol, the territory of Salzbourg, and . some districts to the North •of the Danube, to round the, frontiers of Austria; but Brannan. rernaiirs to, Bavaria, which will be, aggrandiZed by the territory of Wurtzburgh, and perhaps by a part of the Left Bank of the Rhine, in which is called the Middle Rhin, and which comprises Mayence, Coblentz, and Trcves. The difference which. arose between the Prui sian,and Bavarian troops respecting the occupa tion of Ment2:, is termini►ted, We are assured that the question is referred to the Allied Sove- reigns. In consequence, the Prussian troops have evacuated the place, and the Bavarians have marched into it. Things will remain in this state until it is finally decided to which power this barrier of the Rhine will belong. MADRID, JUNE B.—The King has appointed a Committee to consider of the best means of speedily convoking a legitimate assemblage of the Cortes, including also the Deputies of the Indies. To this body his Majesty tvill propose a Consti tutional Charter, conformably to the true princi ples, of the Monarchy; but a limited Monarchy is what the intelligence of the age requires, as wtll as Modern manners, and the generous and elevated character of Spaniards.
