CT Prussia is united in interest with
the Ruffian Empire ; —andnotwit/funding
foe has taken peffeflion of the Electorate of
Hanover, apparently flands well with
Great-Britain. She has a very numerous
army in complete preparation to take the
field. It may not be amifi to mention
that Aufiria has not reduced a hattallion of
her troops face the condition of the peace of
Luneville,
O' THE late arrivals from England €ff
Germany, have farmfeed a view of Euro
pean politics to the beginning of August.
0, In the North tranquillity was fully
eftablifhed —every warlike equipment sus
pended ; and the commerce of the Baltic
rapidly refusing its ujual aßivity. The
Northern Powers were convinced that the
Coalition they were beguiled into by the
French, instead of being intended to reflore
the liberty of thefeas," was the lafl foift of
Bonaparte to involve them in war with a
nation he hated and feared —and which
alone he knew has been and will be able to
prescribe limits to his ambition and tyranny.
The new Emperor of Russia has been edu
cated in a school wherein he has been taught
to form a proper idea of bis importance in
the scale of Europe.—-He appears, by the
firft arts of his reign, to feel that if France
continues what foe now is —-the Arbitrefs
of the continent —he will be but a cypher ;
and be has been taught to know how to
augment bis own importance by lessening
the power of France. Bonaparte could
cafly intrigue with the Ruffian Monk ; but
be finds that all the chicanery of Duroc is
mifpent upon Alexander.-The remonstrance
of the latter resetting the kings of Naples
& Sardinia are samples of his inquietude
on the fubjeß ; and,withfo potent a Mon
arch, action will not be far in the rear of
REMONSTRANCE.
to foew in what degree of contempt the
English government hold tbefe threats, it is
daily fending its squadrons on expeditions
to distant parts of the globe ; and foe has
in those expeditions acquired possession of
Malta, part of Egypt, the Madeiras, and
the Brazils. The two latter in trust for
fte Portuguese. Befdes tbefe,face August
commenced, a small squadron of gun-boats,
bomb-ketches and frigates, have quietly ctoff
cd the channel, and insulted the 1 r.neb na
*tion on its coaft —merely to insult it, and as
pafl time to quiet the minds "of the wo
men and children of London."
CT France is at peace with the Con
tinent.—Her eulogfflsfay fee is covered
with glory ; but is it not more the semb
lance than the substance of true °lory ?
Her numerous, disciplined and gallate war
riors, it is true, have overrun many coun
tries, whom they have subjugated, plunder
ed and destroyed ; but man, others have
been viftims to her revolutionary creeds, her
jacobin clubs, her " lie offices, " and her
intrigues. By them foe has acquired extent
of territory and numbers ; but natter great
wealth, fubflantial bappinefs, nor solid
glory. But what has foe not loft ?—Has
ike not lofl the energies of her navy ; a
number of her colonies ; her commerce, and
credit ; and been reduced to the vile necef
fty of robbing the nations round her to sup
ply the loud calls of her government for
money ? What is the fate of her allies,
Switzerland, Holland and Spain ? She :s
too impotent to defend their pefefyns ; and
the, have nothing at home that appears
worth defending. —Switzerland. .is but an
extra-department of France ; and receives
any confutation or form of government
•which the Chief Consul dilates. —Holland,
fi om a rich,'independent date, finds in her con
nexion with France nothing but dependence,
deftrußion and disgrace. —To her^ndepen
dence foe adds the loss of her wealth, her
great credit, and her imntnfe commerce ;
nor has all the boafied power of the Great
Republic been able to prevent the Cape
of Good Hope, Ceylon, Amboyna,
Capt. Gardner, informs us that
when he left Manilla, on the 10th of
April, four Spanish fliips of the line
and three frigates were preparing for
sea—destination unknown.
The degree of Batchelor of Art§
'"as conferred on thirty-nine young
gentlemen : The degree of Master of
Arts on 12 gentlemen. The honorary
degree of Mailer of Arts was confer
red on Samuel Miller, Esq. of Middle-
Banda, Surrinam, Demerara, Berbice,
Essequibo, and Curracoa from falling In
to the bands of" the nation of shopkeep
ers." Spain too bas come in for berfull
fl,are of the disgrace and defruction which
accompanies French friendflsip. She bas
seen her fleet taken by the Englifo, or seized
by her masters • ,and bas lately been com
pelled to abandon the honor of calling her
ships her own. —We may to the loss of her
honor and credit add that of her commerce
and the islands of Minorca and Trinidad.
O^ ^en in India the contagion of French
friendship has been fit; and Tippoo Sultan
bas paid the forfeiture of his life and king
dom for a fraternal embrace. Such is
French impotency.

The BOSTON CENTINEL's
REVIEW or EUROPE.
NEW-BEDFORD, SEPT. 1,.
From Manilla.
Ettraft of a letter from a gentleman at,Alexandria,
Virginia.
" Major **** of Fredcrickfburgh,
has received a letter from Dawson, but
it does not contain a line of politics.—
He speaks much of Paine and Barlow,
fays, they had been very ufeful to him,
&c. were mighty clever fellows, altho'
the firft of them drinks like a fifh.—
This letter treats almost exclusively of
the fine things^ the fine women, the fine
fashions of Paris. It tells Major ****
he must not be furprized on Dawson's
return at feeing him with colored clocks
to his flockings, for they are worn in"
France by all " the better fort of people
& the members of the corps diplomatique."
The Constitution of the Germanic
Empire has continued unaltered and Un
impaired through a period of nine hun
dred years, counting from the extinction
of the race of Charlemagne and the e
iedion of Conrad of Franconia. This
duration is not to be paralleled in hifto
ry, and appears at firft fight, totally
incompatible with so complex a form of
government ; at the date of our last ac
counts from Europe, it was about to
undergo considerable changes.
CT Great-Britain is loaded with debts
and taxes which no other nation could bear ;\
but foe is in full pofafon of the fas, and
dilates her maritime laws in the harbours
of her momentary enemies. She retains all
the colonies and possessions foe Jeld at the
commencement of the war ; and the chief
part of her conquests ; her credit is un
bounded ; her manufactures in the fullcfl
demand; and foe is at peace with all na
tions except those under the immediate con
troul of France. The relations of amity
between her and the United States, are
well preferred by a Miniver worthy of his
fation, and whose continuance in office re
fleßs no small degree of credit on the Exe
cutive of the United States.
<, Portugal has made peace with
France as well as Spain.—One of her pro
vinces has been ceded to the latter ; and the
former, has yielded to the powerful charm
of I' argant. The English are to be ex
cluded from the Portuguese ports.
The most ariflocratical insolence has
been exhibited by the jacobin para
graphias towards the New-Haven mer
chants. They have been called pedlars,
and represented as poor. But suppose
these affections were not lies but falls,
what have their circumstances to do with
their claims for justice and good treat
ment ? Are we to conclude that a rich
merchant i$ to be listened to with at
tention, while a poor one must sigh his
grievances to the wind?

MORE OF THE NEW PHILOSOPHY!
" PARIS, July 17. —On the 19th
inst. will be celebrated in the Temple
of Vi&ory, a Festival consecrated to the
principles of Atheism and Toleration,
as propagated by Voltaire ! !!"
[The above paragraph will account in some
measure, for the delay of Tom Paine in coming
to this country, To be present at " A Fedi
val, consecrated to the principles of Atheism,"
would no doubt, be a gratification, which “Jink
Cbritlians as disbelieve the Bible," could scarcely
forego, even at the expense of a voyage across
the Atlantic. While we deplore tQe wicked
ness of that country which tolerates such a
bominations, we must rejoice with every true
Christian, that any circumstance Qould have
occurred to retard the visitation to our country,
of a wretch devoted to the " Principles of Athe
ism," inasmuch as it tends to procraffinate the
propagation of those principles which his pre
sence would undoubtedly effed.]
All the letters from Holland Bate,
that the English forces cruising upon
th& Batavian coasts are constantly in
creasing. Admiral Graves has appear
ed off the Texel with a numerous squad
ron, and a great many fire Blips and
bombs. The Batavians are taking
measures to prevent the enemy from at
tempting to burn the ships in the Texel.
Admiral Dickson, who is cruising off
Goree, is also reinforced, and his squad
ron now consists of ten ships of the line,
three frigates, and other vessels of less
size. The Dutch fleet, under com
mand of Ad. De Winter, consists of 3
divisions, completely fitted and ready
to fail at the firft signal. They form
together a total of eight ships of the line,
from 74 to 44 guns, seven frigates, and
various other vessels. There are besides
near one hundred gun boats for the
defence of the coasts and the mouth of
the rivers. Admiral De Winter is Bill

states, that there have been 9 deaths by
the malignant disorder, two persons
