The more we consider BONAPANTeII uctual situa-

more critical, and eren perilous, do we regard it.
lie may surmount them by military force ; but he
cannot easily extricate Maisel: by artifice, or conci-
hate a people whom he has so outraged and irri-
tated, by any couceasions. Nor has he been indeed
accustomed to make them in Austria or in Prus-
sia. The Spauiards would ouly see ill ouch a con-
duct his weakness; and they would despise the
despot. at whose 'seine they lately trembled. We
may be assured that the Court of the French Em-
peror, and that of the new Catholic King, his bro-

means, at this moment, the abode of tranquillity,
or of piety.

Now is he to replace his captured ships, and their

these facts? What are become of his beamed

was to send an army overland against India ?

already rudely assailed. The French are men,
however enslaved and enchained. There is a won-
