THE BRITISH PRESS.

LON DON,
MONDAY, Ithaca 30.

The papers and letters, from Dublin, and every
other pan of Ireland, where the change of Mi-
nistry was known, are filled with expressions of deep
and unfeigned regret at that event. The removal
of a set of men, who enjoyed the full and entire
confidence of the country, and of foreign nation,,
would be a lamentable case. under any circum-
stances ; but it m;:st be particularly distressing t.)
thine wha feel they are the cause. Such is the

'reeling of Ireland ; a feeling farther aggravated
by the refleflien that the new men are not in the
number of those whom Ireland has considered
her friends. Sir JOHN Naus ray has sent in his re-
signation, and Mr. Fosse has been invited to sue-
ce.:sl him, as CHANCELLOR of the Extritoutu of
that part GI the United Kingdom. There has not
been time for the arrival of an answer. If Mr. Foa-
r n thinks the present Ministry has a chance of
standing their ground a few months, he will
acept the offer. We wish Lord RBDCSDALE had
chosen some other way to shew the strength of his
nerves, than by accepting the Trish Seals.

We have received Paris Papers An the 22d, and
Dutch to the 25th.—The ; ...ona cur, of the 20th,
contains the Address of the conservative Senate, in
answer to Boa AAAAA s's Message, Inns Warsaw;
from which we have made the folh)winkextraB :

You cannot. Sire, fi7lit any longei fur fame !
Ynu are in possession of more glory than :my hero
has ever acquired. But you contend for a peace
which may mute the happiness of the great people;
of that people, who, by their courage, by their la-
bours, by their industry, by their love for you, so
well deserve the felicity for which you every day
brave so many ohstaclis and perils. They will,
Sire, shortly behold you surround. d with innu-
merable trophies. They will •behold around your
triumphal car y•rur invincible legions, holding out
to the admiring eyes of grateful Fiance and Eu-
rope, the olive of peace, which you will have con-
quered:
With what transport will they hail your au-
vast presence. Ar.d with how much devotion,

and &fedi*, wait* lam an that u
greatest of monarchs shall have done for their glory
and prosperity.

" Already, Sire, we are delighted in consider-t
the arrival of your august spouse in this great ciq,
as the forerunner ef so happy a day for all Fre:.ct..
men, and when the Senate will be Allowed to pr,
sent to your MAJISTY the tribute of its gratitude,
its admiration, and respell."
The rest of the answer is in the usual style of c.. .
mon place fulsiime fl tttery. We have etiract.:,!
this passage, as it appears calculated to prepare tb,'
Public for BON•F ARTS'S return to Paris. Indeft,-
report was current, yesterday, that an Ameriostil
vessel, just arrived from a French port, had Stoup. •
intelligence, that by a Senates Centeltwn, rem::
pasied at Paris, the Estrin** bad been rectlle;s
from the army. If any such proceeding has takti
place, it must have been at the suggestion of 014

revival of the recollation of Lis disgraceful fi..atit
from Egypt. and landing at Fi rine.

The French S per cents. wore on the 19 7f

The Messenger who arrived from Pt•tersbutlb,
on Friday last, brought with him dispwches
letters to the Bth instant. Before his departure,
General BENNIGSZN'S ()facial Accounts of the battfi
of Breunsherg had reached that capital, a erred'
which, we are as...ured, was transmitted t.
country.

The fighting, according to tliese advices, c-ot.
menced on the 4.Z.41, and continued until t!;!.! ‘;:.4
Februaty inclusive. The result was glorious torte
Russian arms. Sevent .en Lagles were added to
BENNIOSCN'S trophies at Petersburgh, a quantity if
cannon t+ken, and the loss ,)f the French, in kilted,
wounded, and prisoners, exceeded 15,000 mut;
that of the Russians was stated at 6000.

Sir A arena WELLESLEY. it is said, will he the

In constquence of the departure of MJjor.Ges.
Lord Foams% from Dover, the command of the
troops will devolve on Major G-r.eral PATIOS, un-
til the rd:urn of Lieutenant-General S'r G. Lute

'fire present Ministry, deprived of the lower 4
lavishing places or reversions upon their creatures,
it is said arc resolved to make a general sweep of
all the persons appointed during plea.nrc, in the
time of the late Administration, for the purl"e of
creating patronage. The very porter; aittl ire

l'he dispatches which have been received from
Lord Cor.i.irrcwoon are of the first favor tree,
and have occasioned pressiog orders for the utmost
vigilance of our cruising squadrons. It appears.
that. a considerable French squadron, and four Sire.
nish sail of the lire, are in Cadiz, surn•• ships Isav-
ing lately even ehtered into that port in despite isf Par
blockading squadron. The combirei squadrons,
thus reinforced, had dropped down to the h rid
moorings, and at the moment in which tht &e.
patches of Lord Cozeraciwono were sent 017 be
was in hourly expeaation that the French and bp
ni.i:cis wn.ild attempt an escape. It is bathe
stated, than an unusual number of transports, or
vessels which were considered as transports, were
joined to these squadrons. The dispatch.. were
brought by the Halcyon, which will return w her
