wicked world, he be not too good and ton virtuous,
end too simple, to he an able and practical politician ?
—We now come to the plea of confession.—His
Lordship pleads in mitigation, as evidence of his
cindour, that he confessed freely.—Now we assert,
that this plea is not founded in fact; for, al-
though his Lordship had denied the charge stoutly,
the evidence of Lord CLANCAIITY and of RIMING,
and the written evidence of all the notes and let-
ten that passed upon the occasion would have been
sufficient to convict him. We will take an early
'opportunity to resume this subject.

Those who reflect on the actual situation of the
Continent, end who recollect the events that have
'eonVelsed, disorganised, and nearly subverted it,
from one extremity to the other, since 1794, will
certainly restrain their expectations of better soc-
•_ess in the preseet struggle, within very doubtful
!MLitt. Vet, if we were to compare the actual si-
tuation of BONAPARTE In 180.5, and 1E406, when he
eivaded and conquered Austria and Prussia, with
his present tneans, resources, and probable chances
of att. g his object, we shall, on a fair revision
of both, be compelled to admit, that there is rea-
sonable ground at least for hope. When, in the
Autumn of 1805, he encountered at Ulm the Aus-
trian army commanded by General INlscit ; and
when he afterwards vanquished the forces of that
Sovutittae, combined with those of his ally
A LEX•Mura, at Austerlitz, he was enabled to bring
into the field the whole military strength of the
French empire. Spain and Prussia, the two only
Cmititieutal States which could have made any
powerful diversion, looked on. and allowed lion to
effect his objcet, without interposition or molesta-
tion. Austria, exhausted, dismembered, and in-
capable of rigorous muster's, or of great exertienr,
after her recent misfortunes, acted, in 1806, to-
wards Easneatee WILLIAM, the same part which
be haill 'Pusillanimously and unwisely adopted to.
wards her in the prece ditig year. NAPOLEON
again conducting in prison the united energies and
armies of Frame, while lieedvrtsz, leccuester,
and LOMBARD, betrayed or surrendered up their
unfortunate SOVEREIGN, renewed at Auerstadt the
victory of Austerlitz. Winter, which folgowed, in-
capacitated this country from taking any active
part in the hostilities, or operations in the vicinity
of the Baltic, till it became ton late to succour
Dant:ie. The victory of I' rietiland, and the peeve
of Tilsit followed. In both these ;peat exoerii-
twos of the modem ALEXANDER, which were
crowned with complete success, he was enabled to
direct, to superintend, and to carry to their con-
summation, his plans of every kind, while Europe,
bleeding, or prostrate, did uot dare to interpose.
Let us maw contemplate his position in April,
1809. Since the month of Juiy last, his troops
occup;eti in the invasion of Spain, and in die re-
duction or defence of Portugal, have been subject-
ed to the rudest and most severe proofs of valour,
discipline, and patience. They have even met
with defeats, and been subjected to humiliations
of the most mortifying description. Their Eagles
Dare been taken by the enemy, and they have been
reduced to surrender or to embark, and to evacuate
the country that they had conquered. The siege
and capture of Saragossa bore no similarity to
those of Mantua, of Magdeburgli, or Schweidnits.
He is still contending on the Tagus, on the Gua-
dalquivir, and on the Douro, not merely for em-
pire, but, even for safety. The ('roan of Spain
is not like that of Holland, Naples, or Westphalia.
Josrott may he again reduced to transfer his royal
residence to Burgos, or to Silica. One half of the
Pyrenean peninsula remains unsubdited. NET is
isolated at Ferrol ; arid Solar may find it equally
difficult to advance towards Lisbon, or to retreat in-
to Usllicia. Two hundred thousand men will not
be more than adequate to keep Spain and Portugal
in complete subjection. 's alenciv, Carthagene,
Malaga, and Cadit, are not yet taken. Nor can
BottaranTs himself a second time appear at the
heed of his armies on the Ebro, or lead them in
person against the iuturgents, unless after having
vanquished Austria, awl made another Treaty of
Presbutg. Even his troops must be greatly re-
duced in numbers. exhausted by marches of many
hundred miles across all Europe, and perhaps
satisfied at finding themselves made the instrainents
of an insatiable, as well as inexhaustible ambition.
IVe are assured, on the testimony of letters receiv-
ed from various parts of Holland within these three
days, that the population of France is drained, to
*up* the necessities of the war, beyond all for-
mer precedent. A how so strengly bent, and for
so lout a period of times, may snap in an instant.
or recoil with violence on the Tyrant • who uses
it.
Austria, on the other hand. exhibits union, de-
termination, and mature counsels, invigorated by
twcessity, and propelled by despair. After the de-
positioa of CURREN.' IN'. and the iinpvisoirmeut of
FERDINAND VII. the Allies of Bowavattec, the
doom of the Austrian Line wee waled—Siough po-
licy might defer or delay its accomplishment. If
resistance could be made, the present was the mo-
ment for it, when Spaiu and Portugal still hold
out ; Prussia and Saxony cannot he unconcerned

We see, with equal astonishment and regret, that
Ministers, unaffected by the loud and general de-
niand for Deform, have had the imprudence, as well
ar temerity, to reject Lord PoacuEsTEß'S motion
on Monday, for the Abolition of Reversions. A
majority of fifircn, threw out that attempt to affix
some permanent limit to one of the most odious,
an well its we venture to udd, Iwlwliuc and dan-
gerous prerogatives of the Crown. It is thus, that
a Cabinet, which on the Continent has signalized
itself by vacillation, precipitation, and utter incapa-

bulwarksof corruption. That Mr. PERCEVAL him.

venture, however, to predict, that no ministerial
protection can long perpetuate these abuses. Tile
