The first mesh, as a celebrated publicist has observed, is fixed to Heligoland, and the second to Jersey. From these it commands all the issues of Germany, watches over the Sound, intimidates Sweden and Denmark, and presses on the coasts of Holland and France. In the centre of this line rises the metropolis, between the south end the North of Europe. Its eccentric psition renders its maritime power the tyrant of the Eu. ropean seas ; Gibraltar and Malta secure to it the entrance, and the centre of the Mediterranean. — Prom the lonian Islands it superintends the Adriatic and Greece ; the Cape of Good Hope opens to it the route to India ; by means of Malabar, Ceylon, Etc. it compresses Asia; New Holland renders it mistress of !he South : at Trinidad it has one foot on the Spanish Continent : at St. Lucia,Jamaica, &c. it watches the liavatinali and the Antilles. — The occupation of Canada and Newfoundland completes this immense chain, which seems to bout together the two worlds. The preponderance, as ignominious as it is con trary to the rights- of nations, is the object of uni verial hatred ; and it may be asserted, that nine tee!, twentieths of the inhabitants of Europe woulo rT .

NuEEMBERG, JULY 10.—A public journal says, " In the mediation of the Great Powers between Spain and ii.rtti g al, inporiant explanations are said to have been brought forward respecting the nature of the Sacred Alliance, according to which —lst. It is valid only between the Powers who have expt esly concluded it with each other ; but by no means as their allies are con cerned, with whom a special treaty is necessary. 2d. The contracting parties engage to protect each Power, not only in the integrity of its whole ter ritory, but also - in all its constitutional rights, in res pect to its subjects. lo conformity with these arrangements, and the negotiations between North America and Spain, Russia, it is stated, has en gaged :o support the cause of Ferdinand VII. in Spanish America with a squadron of 6 ships of the line any; several smaller vessels, and with an army of 15 or '20,000 men; for which Spain cedes to Russia Old and New California, in America, and the island of Minorca, and givef, it also very im portant commercial advantages. North America is stated to have rogaged, in consideration of the ces sion of the two Flotillas by Spain, to forbid all assist ance to the insurgents in its territories. How far the negociations have advanced cannot yet be posi tively ,aid, but it is certain that they are going on. These negotiations, and the relations of Ra,sia with the Voile :Hi Persia, greatly excite t h e a t t ention of the English Ministry. It is thought in Eneatid that a fleet will soon be equipped. A Russian squadron has sailed from Revel and Cronstadt, and is expected shortly in the North Sea.", The•Dey of 'TRIPOLI has presented the PRINCE 'Pt EGENT with such remains of antiquity as are moveable at liehyda, which is fatuous for being the site of Carthage. The Weymouth store-ship, 31r. TutiPsit commanding, is now on her voyage thither, for the purpose of receiving and carrying to England those.aucient monuments, which are represented as highly curious, and illustrative of that once spendid capital. A practice having prevailed with the masters of vessels of purchasing fish on thl coast of France, with which they supply the London market, to the manifest injury of British fishermen, the Board of CII3tOWS have signified their determination to take legal steps against the importers, who arc liable to a penalty of 1001. for every such offence, and against the masters of the importing vessels, who are also liable to a penalty of 301.

LONDON, TUESD.II', JULY 22, 1817. Last night and this morning we received the Paris Papers of Friday and Saturday last. The Moniteur gives, from the Official Gazette of Rio Janeiro, a long note, addressed by the Portuguese Minister in the United States to Mr. MONRO, when Secretary for Foreign Affairs, complain ing of the fitting out of privateers in the Ame rican Ports, under pretended Independent Flags, which cruised against the' Commerce of the Brazils. Mr. MoNao's Answer refers to the Pen- SIDENT'S Message to Congress, urging the• passing of an Act for preventing Citizens of the United States from fitting out vessels for the purpose of interfering in the disputes of Belligerents; and which Message, together with the Act which fol lowed it, have already been given. The Moniteur also contains the following offi cial article from Lisbon, respecting the restora• ion of the Itoyal Authority tit Pernambuco:— " LISBON, JULY I [OFFICIAL ARTiCI.R.I " The Government has received by the ship Nam Paqueie, arrived from Rio de Janeiro in 52 days, and which touched at Pernambuco, the agreeable intelligence • that on the 20th May the Royal flag was hoisted on the fortresses of Almeida and Recite by the inhabitants of the town, the Rebels having been completely routed in the en virons of Cape Saint Augustin by the troops from Bahia. The town has resumed its obedience to the King, and some of the Chiefs who bad fled into the interior were pursued with every prospec of their being soon taken." The following are further extracts : Putts, JULY 19.—The Bulletin yesterday announces the Duchess de Berry to be in a tran- quit state. " Some of the Journals have inserted an article under the head Parma, giving details of the pre tended effects of the malady called the Typhus. We are assured, however, that these details are greatly exaggerated.—(Moniteur) " Madame Catalaui is expected at Paris about the end of this month. She will re-appear for the first time in Les Trois Sultanes. " A private letter from Lisbon, of the 2d inst. states as follows The day before yesterday a vessel entered this port, decorated with various flags. She left Rio de Janeiro fifty-three days ago, but coming off Pernambuco, and observing few obstacles, she entered the port, and sailed from thence to Lis bon in forty days. The statement she brings is, that in consequence of two - consider able and sanguinary battles, which took place the 18th and 19th of May, the troops which • the Count d'Arcos had sent from Bahia without any other aid (those from Rio not having then ar rived), entered Pernambuco, and the place was subjected to legitimate authority. It is said that the resistance was very obstinate, that there was r much bloodshed, that the principal c onspiratots were killed with arms in their hands, and that the Chief Martines had fled into the woods.' " We understand it was by an arret6 of the Council of Ministers that the Constitutionnel was suppressed. " The Duke of ‘Vellington, it is said, will pass the remainder of the summer at the Chateau of Mont Saint Martin. The Chamber of Accusation of the Cour Royale has declared null the opposition formed by MM. Comte and Dunoyer (Editors of La Censeur) and confirmed the Ordonnance of the Chamhcr of Council of the Tribunal de Premiere In stance, which sends them before the Correctional Tribunal. The affAir, it is supposed, will come on immediately. The two accused, we under stand, have demanded their liberty upon bail. Their request has been laid before the Chamber of Council, who have notlet decided upon it. "The affair of the Society of the Sleeping TA Ott ()tiles , day teft,ec tl,e i I 6f Cofrectional Police. A . number of individnals helottging. to Society are charged with. con spring to overturn 'the iiovernment. "'the Lake of Constance has risen higher 'titan ever was known. Noddy the ‘vhole of Lintiltt is un►ler Water; and a great part of the road leading (rout thence to litcgentz is entirely destroyed. " trIVE PER CENTS, " Thursday - (3(; f. 30 c. " day - - - Ditto." The following article which appearea in a French P;iper, called the Constibilionnei, conveyesl in a professed Critique oil an Exhibition of Pictures, is said to have been the reason for the suppression of that Paper : TRANSLATION. " We remark amongst his finest. pictures (Isaueir) the whole-length figure of a child, bolding in its two hands an enormous bouquet of roses. This association of the colours of spring and the graces of infancy, recalls and embodies ideas of hope. In the middle of the bouquet the author has placed some beautiful blue flowers. The ensemqe of this composition has the most pleasing effect. These flowers are called German IreritisJ (it should be vergi,u) mrin forget me not." This article was conceived by the French Go vernment to contain a political allusion and mystery, and therefore the Paper was stopped altogether. When we consider the artifice, the rancour, and the incurable fatuity of political Reformers and Revolutionists, and the private knowledge which the French Government might have of the real import of this apparently simple and innocent Critique, we are not disposed to agree with the Party Organ on this side of the water in supposing it acted with harshness,caprice, and tyranny. An incessant watch should be kept over the mancenvres of Faction in all Countries, or no Government can remain in a state of security. They following is an Extract from a Calcutta Journal of the 10th of Feb. " .IVe leain that a French Governor had arrived and received possession of Chermandugour, the former French Settlement 30 miles above-Calcutta. Pondicherry, one hundred miles below Madras, on the Corom►:ndel, had also been delivered to the French Anthorities, hut the Territory ceded with those places scarcely surpassed the diameter of three miles, around which the British had esta- Mkheil Such a line of boundaries, that - the French possessiors in the I;ast are nearly nominal ; every article imported into them, and exported flog, them, I),..ing snhject to the Lnglish Company's Duties." The articles at Calcutta were nearly thiubit the 'or mer prices. We extract from some German Papers, wlikl came to hand last night, an article from the Ghen Journal, chewing the hatred against Englam which is still vented by some of the Bnonapar tists, and also rather a curious speculation wit' regard to the policy of Russia, and the allege interpretation of the holy Alliance. It is reported on 'Change, that the object of Air. BARING's visit to Paris is to arrange the terms of another Loan to the Ftench Govern ment, to the amount of 2,000,0(101. sterling. The factions Prints are amusing their Readers with accounts of OLIVER'S CIPHER. The cha racter and conduct of this person %vas s• satisfac torily vindicated by Mr. ADDINGToN, in the House of Commons, that 110 attempt has been made to refute the staten►ent of that Gentleman. We know nothing of this OLIVER ourselves, but We . conclude, from the rancour of faction, that he has been mewl to his country. The Act for the Canal from Arundel to Ports mouth having received the sanction of the Lcgis- Wore, we understand that every exertion is now making to carry that important measure Into effect. Mr. OWEN, of Lanark, is proceeding vigorous ly with his plan for improving the condition of the lower orders of Society, by traini n g them i n . to the habits of industry and virtue. nere is to be a general m eeting very soon of the frields ilnd patrons of this benevolent, if not practicable, system.

Th e Duke of You:. transacted military business with the PRINCE REGENT Yesterday. The PAINCE REG;;Nr had a select party to dirt- ner yesterday at Carlton-house. Yesterday, about 2 o'clock? the CHANCELLOR of the ExcHEQuER left town for Harwich, to he present this day at a grand entertainment to be given by the light Hon. Gentleman to his Con stit„nts, who have lately re-elected him after his new appointment of Chancellor of the Excheoner of Ireland, in conjunction with his fouler office. He had sent a buck and a turtle to form part of the feast this day. The celebrated. mineralogist, WERNr.R, is dead. The day of his death is no t stated, but the Paris Papers quote a letter from Dresden, as to the fact.
