(Signed) ." T. GISBORNE. " H. R.-REYNOLDS." This morning at Eleven o'Clock the following Report was made by His MAJESTY'S Physicians, :for the public inspeetion this day : " Queen's throe, Feb. 24.• " His MAJESTY is not thought to be worse to-day, although he still continues to have fever. (Signed) " T. GISBORNE. " H. R. REYNOLDS." We forbear stating any thing on the subjea bi Ms MAJESTY'S Illness—There were, as there ' will always be upon such occasions, a thousand - 1 " reports, many of which we believe to have been exaggerated—at the same time we are not with out some alarm upon this deeply interesting and ,1 • 1 important point. Drs. GISBORNE, REYNOLDS, WILLIS,nd we understand, attend His MA JESTY, and we hear they all express the most sanguine hopes of His MAJESTY'S speedy re. covery. In our stibseqttent columns will he found an Extra& from the Madras Gazette; of the 27th September last, giving an account of the Opera tions of the British Army against DHOOIDI A WANG. These have, it will be seen, been as aetisive and as successful as could have been hoped, and have terminated in the total Defeat of the Forces of lIHOONDI A, and the Death of that Rebel himself. The Baggage and Cann(); of the Rebel Army felt into the possession of tjie Eng. lisp. endeiVOureaon Saitirday to sliew the spirit in Which the Treaty of tune•ville had been a"Oncluded, and to point out the double plan of aggrandizement, and republicaniiing which has vtided the French negotiator, and which he has succeeded in Teldising. This necessarily: led us to - too--geertra length to admit of our -elcsmintng any o f thenntnerous .questions to which this new treaty gives rise.. We can - note enter into this examination ; and we shall begiii by endeavour tag to remove an error. into which, it appears, mos t people have fallen,and which it is our duty, . as far as is in our power, to prevent from being confirmed in the public opinion. • Deceived by the mention made of the Pacifica tion of Camps Fgrntio iti that of Luneville, and by the identity of several articles of the two Treaties, the greater part of our, journalists have considered the latter as having the 'former for its basis, and as being, if it may - be so said, a na7 tural consequence of it. Some. persons have con- . eluded from this, that BONAPIIITE had made . a moderate use of the vittories of his armies in igoO, and that he had confined himself to real'_ tag the plans which he had conceived, after the campaign of 1797. It is our intention to sheik that the Principle and the Consequenees are equal ly false.:' it would no doubt be more conveni ent for iis . to adapt, as others have done, propo sitions without giving ourselves the trouble of examining them, but we should be wanting to cut readers andito ourseliies did we omit :this ne , ce4tary : work. . ; The Treaties of Campo Formio and of Luxe 'Wks have, it is true, se v eral points in common. The Empv.Ro P. in both renOuntes his right to the Low Ciitintries, the Milanese, the Imperial Fiefs, the Frickthal, and the Comte of Ftilkenstein. In both he receives the Territory of Venice, as far as the Adige ; and in both does the Duke of AilookNA receive the Brisgau as an indemnity. In both arc the same Articles to be found which regulate 'inferior ()Nab of interests ; but here the similitude ends, and two capital points of difference succeed, which.essentially change the: . condition in which the Treaty of Campo Formio bad left the Belligerent Powers. By the Seventh Article of the latter Treaty, i t had beenagreed . that a Congress should be held to arrange a Pacification between the:Empire and .France. At taitiev://e, on the contrary, this Pa_ eificition has been decided upon without the Diet of Rat i WhielL . represents -the Empire, hdving had the least stiare in it, without a single Deptity having been sent by it to the Theatre of Conk- , fence. By one; word the. Germanic Body finds itself restored to . reace, accorciing to the Repub lican way, that is to - say, plundered and destroyed. As if to add iffsult. to injuzy, this Pacification has for its basis - the - .concessions . 'made •by the Rmpire at the Congress .at which never received a formai sanction, and which. Were afterwards solemnly dilayowett and declared mill by the' Imperial Deputatien, and by Count MIITTEL.w Leu hi, ‘ L:nself, the Emperor's Minister, Insolent and cievatic us was 'the . conduft of - the French Plenipotcntiatiei at R0;1914'14 Gertnanic • Porter's Lodge for the satisfAion of all In.l quirers. It was couched as follows : ~ " (Zzetve.r House, Fd.ii, rSo t. t .1 ! 0 4 The KING has had sum hours slbep dutind the ' tight, but has still Fever. , Body tivasitt least. represented there, by i"eputies . . of their , OW'ri choice and' legally elefted : those Deputies could there at least discuss the interests' which were entrusted to their care : they had at least a voice in •the sacrifices which they made, and which were ostensibly. their .own a&s. In a ward, the Treat► of Campo Forma left the Empire if not integral in territory, at least so in its federal rights and in its political independence. Every one must be sensible that by the Treaty of Lunnv;//e both these are destrovtd. The Empire will henceforth be merely a field of plunder, for which France, Austria, Prussia, the Grand Duke of Tuscany and the Duke of Modena will con tend, and divide. What adds to the singularity of this Pacification, and stamps it with a double character. of injustice is, that the two Princes dispossessed in Italy, and those who are so on the left bank of the Rhine, are to be indemnified from the body of the Empire itself, that is to say, at the expence of some other lawful Princes or Governments. In vain should we look for any equity or any general advantage to be derived from their. substituting spoils in the 'room of spoils, or endeavour to foresee to what end this system of j appparent justice, but of real injustice, is to lead. The difference between the Treaty of Campo Formic; and that of. benc-v . With respth to Italy, is not less important and fatal than with respecl to Germany. When the EMPEROR made, in 1797, a sacrifice of his antient possessions in /tidy, he saw, at least, Tuscany preserved in his family, and his influence maintained at Naples, the 'existence of which he had secured. Of both these advantages he is now deprived, and the. KING of SARDINIA no longer stands, as in 1797, an intermediate Power between France and Austria. -There - is no longer any Princeor 'Go vernment remaining in Italy, whose interests are not forcibly separated from his own, anti he sees the Territory' and Coasts of that Couiifry entirely at the mercy of those whoa short time ago were his Enemies, and whom; notwithstanding the ecvlusion of a Peace; he must be •far fromeonsi. dering aS his frintls; Nothing can prove more strongly' - .the' cimporglitY of the ' political system of the French-Government than this violent trans. fer of the Sovereignty .of Tuscany; The Prince who governed that Country was the first to ac knowledge and'io treat with the French Repub lic. I-Ie has never done otherwise than respe& it, both in matters which regarded its interests, and in the persons of its Agents. He nev:3. joined his Troops to those of the ENIPEROR, not even at .the moment when the latter were, gaining Vklories which appeared to decide for ever the fate of Italy. He had, in a, word, observed the stridest Neutrality, and had even more than once given Europe grounds to accuse him_ for the passive Manner in which he endured the vexations and the outrages of the French. Yet this very prince is, with the dash ola pen, despoiled of his legitimate Sovereigoty, comprehending the finest part of Europe, and the People 'of the most intitesting cheraelet for their pacific habits and their love of the Arts. No thing, can prove more strongly than that Pa. / 7 /thi! is the principle which has ,diftated the Treaty of Luneuille : no more severe lesson has been given to.the Princes •who.have survived the tempest of the ..Revolution,,,ind nothing is better calculated tb afford them a warning not to trust to the deceitful calm Which succeeds it.

A Meeting of the Cabinet Ministers was yes, terday . held at Lord HAWKESBURY'S Office, in Downing street. _ Yesterday a Board was to have been held at the Treasury, at which Mr. PITT was to have presided for the last time ; but, on account of his being particularly engaged in other important business, it was pur oil till this day. It was expe&ed that Mr. PITT would - have re_ sighed the Seals as this day, but the multiplicity of business which he has to transata Will probably delay his resignation.
