Castile and Bra&anza, their towers to defend, May desert British truth for a treacherous friend ; But honour, neer tainted, and faith, neer betrayed, Guide the Standard of England wherever displayid. Couldthe fierce Northern E4O, remote from the fight, See the blood of the slain, and look on with delight ; lUnaided alone in the glorious fray, Shall the Standard of England its terrors display. To repel the proud Foe our lov'd. Monarch prepares, Our hopes he inspires, and our dangers he shares; Ruin, shame and defeat, shall th' Invader repay, but England her Standard in triumph display. THE THE 4TRE. Cotrent.Garlin. The excellent old Comedy of Evtry in bit ILINIONP gave Cooxe an opportunity of appearing last night to great advantage in the charatier of Xitety. He displayed solid judgment In his con. ception of the part, and considerable skill in . re. presenting it. The whole was a masterly exhibi. lion of jealousy, blended with a variety of erno dons, and obtaining a complete aseentitncy over the 11 ' 4 4 The Audience warmly applauded him throughout. I•tweitte takes great pains with the part of Xebadd, and deserves to succeed. He is certainly improved in it, and with farther pradier may ten. der his representation more entitled to critical ap. Probation. He chiefly wants a dignified solemnity, mingled with vapouring arrogance anti conscious P 4 billanimity.--Rininwerm was tolerably well per. formed by MyNbeiv.

BRUNTON returned to this Theatre in the part of Young "CADDY was and supported it with his usual g o o d sense . WADDY was manly and effective in Downright. Upon the whole the CoMedy was sustained in such a manner as to render it very entertaining ; an d the tisible feelings of the audience were admirably kept in motion by the After. piece, which was The "Pother of a Day. It has been discovered, by the Ipswich journal, that 6 AItkICK played Dr. Caius, at that place, be ' fore he came to London, under the assumed name LIDDELL. Every occurrence in the theatrical his. tory of this wonderful Ador is interesting to the admirers of genius. HHoLstaN is engaged to perform a. fete eights at ereford.

Ac. c ording to reports from France, though some of the t eI P 3 O PPOSite Jers e y an d G uernsey have marc h e d the interior, and for La Vendee, the Expedition against these islands is not laid aside, as fresh I l tno?s are daily expeeted to arrive from the Camp ne ar latest, to re-place them. As a proof of the mildness of the season, there • were pulled on Saturday last, in Maryaton garden, Parish of Old Monkland, a second crop of tolerably large strawberries, one of which was fully ripe. A chicken wat lately hatched in the parish of Immithanan, having four feet. Two of these were soon cut off, and the bird still survives. • On Saturday sa,Fre last G eorge J o bb an d Willi am S m i t h committed to the Castle, Cambridge, charged with uttering notes, of purporting to be notes of one kr e - Nottingham Banka, knowing theta to be g r thd. ,D.s•icicel between a' forced Peate and s rWeViary War, the Continent participates the dangers of both; - without enjoying the usual advantages of the f o r. mer, or the chances which might result from the latter. What kind of Peace is that which escludes the principle on which our independence and tran. quiility are founded ? Atter the thirty years cnn vulsion to the - seventeenth century, which spas ter minated by the PeaCe: of . Westphalia, the public rights of Europe wcreatt least set tied by stipulations, in consequence of a long arbitration ot, Powers more or less proportionate to each other, and gua. ranteed by the balance which that solemn transac. tibu preserved among them. At present all balance is overthrown; and every Treaty made i with BONA. PARTE confirms that overthrow ; fur the consequences of them are new usurpations, new spoils, either by arms, or by revolutionary influence ; yet the cry 'for Peace is everywhere heard. Such is the force of words and of habits, that many Princes, many Ministers, and many individuals, still imagine, de they are where they were in 1658, or 1713 ; expea from Stipulations with BONAPAR'Pi, the result of those of Munster or of Utrecht ; and conceive that all disputes between France and them will vanish the mu men: honest TALLFYRAND shall sign the assurance of it. The distress into which most Nations and G.;vernments ate plunged by the uncertainty of their situation is an °bled worthy of attention. Never did the miseries of War appear with so hideous an aspect ' • never were the dangers of Peace more mani fest. No State, in negotiating or purchasing its teconcillation with Revolutionary France, can de %ermine whether it be ading foolishly or prudently; whether there be less risk in braving the hatred or in soliciting the friendship of the Revolutionary Emperor. The effeds of the latter are no longer problematical. Every one now knows what it costs to enter into terms with an Usurper who oppresses full as much by his Treaties as by his Arms, and who never grants Peace but with a view of falling upon his Enemies the moment he has disarmed and disorganized them. What have the pacific Powers, or those that have been made pacific, gained by their desertion of the general cause ? If there be one that merited any consideration, it was the KING of SARUINI?“ By delivering up his fortresses, his country, his sects. rity, he delivered up Italy : he surrendered at .discretion, put himself, his throne, and his fa. under the protedion of the honour of the conqueror ; and ',suited in the faith of a Treaty, Signed • upon the ruin of his ramparts, by which his sovereignty was stripped of all the means of defence. In return, he is a wanderer, with. out 4 home, and without a Subject upon the Continent. Scarcely h a d t h e P OPE bought Peace thea price of his treasures, the chefs itscestvres of the erts, and the third of his territory, when a Con. cordat was put into requisition to execute the saint revolutionary innovations in the Church as had al ready taken ;lace in the State ; and, to give the . death -blow to the Roman Religion, its visible Chid is forced to add blasphemy to degradation, in per. forming the vilest and moat impolitic of all als, *Coronation of, an Assassin and Poisoner as an Emperorof one of the most pojlulous Mations•err kU. p ; The Grand Duke of Tuscany, the Duke of Parma, the Republics of Venice, Helvetia, Genoa, and Lucca, notwithstanding the successive contri •butions to which they an reperttedla submitted, and their numberless humiliations by which they per. chased the suspension of their ruin, exist no more, or only as Departments of Franie. Has the King of Naples gained more tranquillity or safety by a Peace, than he would have. preserved by continuing' in War ? Still is that Enemy in his kingdom WhOm he believed lie ahoUld have removed from it. No longer is there any connexion between his, .tea _ and the rest of Italy, democratised, enslaved, Nnder the subjediun of some insatiable French b. itties ; while the SUMS which Peace has cost him would have maintained numerous armies. Madrid and Lisbon present the same melancholy pidure : Thrones suspended between a revolution daily pre. paring, and the burdens of the most shameful tri. butes. It is in this deceitful position—it is in the arms of the assassin of his family—.that the King of Spain drags on his existence, a prey to the per. tutbation (Allis mind, the dissentions °lbis Ministry, t he c o mplaints and sufferings of his Subjed, to anxie. ty fur the present, and to terror for the future.-- Slumbering beneath suspended poignards, this Mo. narch, bound by the ties of an unnatural Alliance, can neither break them, nor suffer them to remain un. broken, without danger ; can neither continue in Peace, nor support War. Revolutionary France is his scourge, and England his protedor ; he would cease to be King, were the English • to cease to conquer. It from the South we turn our eyes to the North, :we see a dinraCeilll multitude of German Princes and States exhausting the question on the means rte. cessary to abridge their existence. It is difficult to conceive a situation mule deplorable than that to which the Empire has reduced itselt hy its disunion, by the selfishness that has prevailed in it, by its useless meannesses, by its persevering endeavours for Peace, and by that parade of eternal N'egotiations in which it has betrayed its weakness. The time was when : Germany fought thirty years to establish ittt political equilibrium, and the Lek Bank of the Rhine was defended against Lou is XI V. for forty years. In our wretched days, that, possession has been relinquished by ii,dash of the pen ; and BONA. PARTE now invades the Right Bank 'with impunity, tar disposes of it with impudence 1 Deserted by his Co. Estates, the Emperor of Germany, has been • obliged to shelter himself under the same red cap which decorates the Emperor of the French ; an impolitic palliation, which, in suspending immediate ruin, had made ultimate destrettion almost inevit able. Prussia, neutral Pru s sia, does it enjoy any thing but an armed truce ? 1-Irr camps in B ran d ei s. burgh, Pomerania, Silesia, and Westphalia, answer this question. Her transient, calm she owes only to her cruel indifference at the ravages of a tempest rapidly advancing towards her, and which, in a tow years, must sweep her artificial power into litc same gulph that has swallowed the German Empire, Italy, Holland, and Switterland. D.onn iik and Sweden have Annie* on lout. The lamer wet threatened IA in the last year, as the latter has been this somm,-r ; - and both are in cleb!ed for their precarious sj--ty ire. their distance, and to the Forces of ittisia. and England. What has Russia obtained from .its condeo:e.n,ions, from its Guarantees,. and from its. To e;rtie InsultS, visions, usurpations, and inlractinos; and as lOng, as the Throne of France is occupied by an thorper, Russia, in 'common with all other-Nations, has no. thing else to exped. It is to avoid open War, then, and to perpetuate a disastrous breach of 'cOnnexion, that - the Continent Buffets such an accumulation of insolence and con. tempt, habituates Sobjetts no longer to fear, no longer to respect lawful ituthority, and allows the edifice of public safety, property, and jostice, to be demolished. Lest they should perish at once by resistance, they perish piecemeal, without resisting. In a similar crisis the Romans would have armed with the resolution of viCtory or death. The first .Christians would have sung hymns to Providence, and frown to martyrdom. Their succeiors neither die, nor fight ; but consent to wait their last hour, and calendar the days of their existence, like wretches on whom sentence of execution has been passed. This dying convulsion, with which the Coo. tinent is attacked, cannot be of long duration.— Either the principal Powers most resume their arms, or it will sink gradually under successive invasions, for which Revolutionary Pioneers and hollow Pacifi cator's will clear the way. While it is deciding, everyday_ increases the danger, multipliel obsta. des, and diminishes resources. All property, all establishments, all situations, all ranks, all dynasties, are in a state of uncertainty, Industry, trade, the arts,'all decay, and civilized society returns to bar. barism. Ankiety takes possession OleverY family; ruin is at their doors ; and consternation in their hearts. But let the observer . , saddened by the gloom of the interdited bainerit,, and scared by its stupor, irresolution, and degradation, cross the ocean, and come and contemplate England. It is not the sea only that separates her from the rest of Europe, but also a contrast worthy of admiration. All the fury of BONAPAR fR, all his efforts, accom. victims, battalions, flotillas, and robberies, are direaed against this point of the globe. He,. pursues it , with the united forces of the Revolu. tiunary Wat, and the military resources which he acquires by continued public tyranny, exaCtion, de. population, and plunder. He has proscribed Great Britain as he proscribes the Bourbons,' and would willingly set both hemispheres on fire could he but destroy his Enemy in the conflagration. And this Island has supported, and still with glory supports, the dreadful conflia. Her dignity is unsullied as her Army. Her Fleets press on every side of this Colossus of infamy and corruption, who tramples under his ensanguined feet, all who pay, feat, serve, or caress him. It it amidst an annihilated Commerce, blocked up ports, deserted roads, ships destroyed or flying, that dare no longer visit the ocean but by stealth, that the Sultan of the Great Nation vents his rage in knavery and imprecations. While other Nations basely assail him with groans, with prayers, with tributes, with conferences, and diplomatic flattery, this Island despises bins, corn. bats him, Surmounts danger, prospers, and regards no sacrifice• that is necessary for its honour or its independence. Those gloomy dreams of irresolu , lion, that lethargic depression, that perplexity, which torture the Continent, are here unknown, be. cause our liberty, property, security, repose, and hope, are not founded upon the faith of Treaties with a barbarous Usurper ; but upon our own re. Sources, aur own valuer; WA own patriotism, and our own loyalty !! I By the last Lisbon Mail Letters were received from Cadiz to the 11111 ult. From one of these we have been favoured with the, following Eitrao : " to this Country we suffer much, both from sick. ness.and earthquakes ; but, thank God, this city - is much better off than any in the neighbourhood. Near Grenada such has been the violence of the earth. quakes, that three villages, which contained each nearly 3000 inhabitants, have been almost buried, abut ten houses. in each ,only having ternained stand. ing. • • The loss of lives has been immense, and the few survivors have retired to the mount ins, to dive in buts until . these ravages cease. Churches, con. vents, castles, and palaces, have been overturned ; roads have. been destroyed, and mountains opened rivers and foantains have disappeared, and new ones have sprung up where there never were any before. Several lams, formerly in the eallies, are now tm he raps of mountains, But the most dreadtul scourge or this country, is the contagion which ravages. Ma!aga and ,its' vicinity.—Aceursling to the list of deaths received on' the 4th, by the estafette, the number amounted to 4.80 daily. Malaga now con. tains only one.fourth of its inhabitants, the others having dispersed in every direelion. Thank God, this city still remains free frotwany contagious dis.. temper, and our worthy •Gavernor has taketi every step possible to keep us so, for no person is suffered to approach within twenty leagues of this place unless he brings a bill of health, and many othercertificates. Such is the fear we have of the fever raging at Ma. lega, that we cannot even go to walk in the Lind.: gate. (outside the walls) without having a certificate to 'permit ris to return again to the City. Malaga is, or will be, .entirely ruined ; and it is even talked, that should the fever cease there this season, ' and the smallest symptom of it appear in the next, the City will be entirely razed to the .ground,•.by order of Government. We have, tiotwithstanduz, some fevers.and agues here, arising from the intense heat of the season ; but these are not uncommon at this period of the year."
