FROM EUROPE. ';
The J?hn Adams, fromlLiverpool, and the jto. l
leu, from London, have furnished foreign intelli
gence much later than before received.
The papers received by this last arrival contain
important iraforaation. They place beyond a
doubt die final determination of Pant to recal bit
troops—MK Pitt declared in Parliament, "Rhere
was no reafoa to expert the Emperor of Russia
would employ his troops to the fame extent, if to
any extent, again# the French Republic''the en
faing campaign.—The Chouans are defeated in all
quarters, and the tranquility of France is likely
to be restored and f>referved.—-The Britilh are now
going to fubtidife the Emperor of Germany, to
preym hit making I peace until the fortune ot
another campaign is tried on the frontiers of the
French Republic. The fortify of bread threatens
g^teT^iiteii ^^!^* . J
Theiteitilh minbtep are qot without fear that
Pram .willjoin ' France and compel the Anftriant
to.make a peace.—The Britilh government, dur
in^the present war with France, never appeared
in so alarming and dillreffed a filiation. Tfeir.al<
lies areTfellieg ott; the public mind appears great
ly agitated, and the debates in parliament are ex
preflikeof.the.uncertain operations of the enfo
ing campaign: and the Cabinet discovers distrust
and perplexity.—On the other fide, France ap
• pears rolleCted— Their energies are in rapid mo
tion. Buonaparte appears with the Olive Branch -
in one hand, and the Sword in the other. fo^^
As a feecimen of the opposition to the mini'
try, and the dihrefied Gate of the country, the
foliowingextra& is taken from the foeech of Mr.
Nichols,%the Horiie of Commons—viz.
“if his majesty's minillers would state any otb
, er object al the war than the restoration of royal
ty in r rance, he would support the resolution ;
but in fant they had fairly and honestly acknowl-.
edged, inthe course of the debate the other night,
that the reiteration of the ancient government of
France pr.as the object we were fighting so„ at
tea# they bed ' dated, that a fafe peace could not
be concluded till France was reduced to a fixation
in which her. exertions could not injure this coun
try ; this was prgeifely the fame tiling; for if
France was reduced to a date io which her exer
tions could net assert this country, it mu# necef
farilyfaUowjhat fa roti# tamit to any form of
government we pleated to itapofe on her. Mitrif
tecs afled wifely in avowing their object. No
nation ought to wage war, or involve the people
in the calamities attendant upon it, without ex
plicitly defining for what. He should, therefore
take it for grantedthe object of minifiers was to
tenure monarchy in France. Was it possible 'they
could succeed ? If the internal situation of France
was considered with reference to this country and
her allies, fuccefy seemed impoflible. How was
it to he expend that Thirty millions of people
mould be compelled to reftorea government,
whufecorinthian columns, by which it had been
supported, were mouldered and defiroyed ? A
variety * difficulties preferred themselves to the
re-ettablifhmeßt of the ancient, eccleliattical and
temporal regime of France—the prefect proprie
tors of land, if the anfot government wanear
hiked, mod lose their po&ffiem— the revival of
the feudal apd ecclefialtical burthens, and the ab
olition of that.equality of condition, which @w>
exilfed in France, would be the confeqnrace of
reflating the antient noblelfe— the views and mo
tives by which our allies were a&uated rendered
racgefs hppelefs. Neither Austria or Russia re
garded the restoration of French monarchy ; ag
grandifement wus Qi&ir obj,rt. It was not un
likely the United States of America would he
reconciles to France, agd renew her trade aim
her; and, if 10, France would be relieved from'
that distress occasioned by the flagnation of her
commerce. It was probable alfu France would
be joined by Pruffia.ltgtft^feintereft of
Prussia to fuffet the hggrandifement of Aultrte, or
depreffien of France ; and as France has difaboW
ed her tral& designs again# monarchies, and that
country was the natural, ally of Prussia, their co
operation was naturally to be expected. He ad-?
, w verted to the calamities incident to wars, parties,
vial, in the extreme scarcity produced with re
fpe& to the necessaries of life. He demonitrated .
to <fae committee the rifque the country ran of
enduring the miseries of famine if the war contin
ue'. be also pointed out the encreafed dihrefe of
the public, in contequence of t^ hi , price of
. corn ;by peace the danger would be averted, and
the evjl removed.^ The high rate ofinfurgnee was
131fo another result of the war ; the encreafed rate
j of inference from America was 22 per cent, and
from the Baltic 15 per cent. By peace we fold
, open the foreign corn markets, and particularly
that of France, and introduce a supply of that ue
ceffary article of life. He also represented |be
danger of famine, arising from the mcreafeh con
fumptien of provisions by Didiers and GilorfW
our armies and fleets, compared with what would?
be the confimption if they were at home labor
; ing in their cottages. .» peace all the calami-,
ties he forrfaw would be effectually prevented.—
He was referring to the general dillrefi of the
merctots„when he was called to ord# by Mr.
Baker, for wandering from fe fubje&." '
A letter from Frankfort, inferred in the French
papers, fetes, that the eledor of Bavaria, 00 hear
ing that it bad been determined to withdraw the
Ruffian troops from Germany, refilled to aceept
the fubfidles ofered to him by the minister «
Great-Britain. r

I have lithe doubt thaLthe Funeral Oration, which;!
'will be there pronounced in honor of WASHB^r ]
ton, will be a very beautiful performance. Ihe
French have been particularly celebrated for this
ipecies of literary compolittom One scarcely
„knows whether this " tribute" of “ relpect" to
the mqft illulirions revolutionary character of the
present age, or perhaps, o£any former age or coun
try, confers more fuftre upon the reputation bt the
Bill regretted fubje& of it, than it does justice to
tire enlightened understanding and the generous
rympamy of Buonaparte. Whole nations have o/-...
teb aone in mourning for their dece^fed begetac
tori ; but there is no example tit the fame W«%
being paid to the memory of ^foreigner, by ' an, ;
other nation than the French.
It it a #rong additifo pledge for the future#
conduct of the FirfrCo@ in France, that he has
thus (elected Washington as his model, who has
not only retired brom the highest office-in his coun-,
try, but was the firtt, and aims# the only person
who has fuccetsfully drawn his sword again# the<
present gothic, antiquated governments in Europe,
in defence of an entire new order of things m the
political fyllem of the world. Jr

Nothing ought to make a reasonable man thin!

sober Mr. Pitt thinking so ill ot it. if he liked the
eftablithment, no man of fence either .in France or
America could like if. As that Miriifter has done
^nothing but mistake during the whole Revolution.
