THE BRITISH PRESS.

LONDON.
THURSDAY, MARCH 13.

We have received Dutch Papers to the 9:h inst.
containing the Paris news to the 4th, from which
we have extraded Boss AAAAAA 's Speech to the Le-
gislative Boil, on the opening of the Session, on the
9.d instant. It is conceived in the same spirit of
delusion and imposture, which has uniformly dis-
tinguished the condua of LC.U4APA RTC, and has,
pethaps, contributed more than any other of
his means, to his unexampled successes. tt Russia,"
he says, " owes the return of the wreck of her
army to the capitulation which he granted it."—
This is a gross misreptesentation. It is well known
that the Emperor Aims:soca, so far from capitu-
lating to BOIJAP•RTE, retired with reltnnance and
cl.sgit.t, on finding that the Emperor of Gumst•sv
had put it out of his power to be of farther use to
him, by entering into an inglcrie.us compromise
with France. Bon AAAAAA was much mote anxious
to be freed from the presence of the Russian rimy,
than the Russian army were desirous to
draw horn him and there is no truth in the
assertion, that it had capitulated f.'r a safe re-
turn. But the most material part of this import-
ant document, is the foliose ing passage respen-
ing England: " I loi,b for prate cu.th
Us wow part, ,t shall ne.er Gt r•tarded for a moment.
I she always le read* la Mat Iwie sI, is ellopiiry, for
It! Gaut, the dipsiatimt of the Trysail V .ititens."
The whole of the speech, and this passage, parti-
cularly, are considered to bear a pacific durance,
and prochsea-41 yessesaar a rise in this funds. The
Speech, indeed, contains no violent and angry in-
tectives against this country, and is, so far, different
from all those which preceded it upon similar occa-
sion; but in this passage, that has been so much
relied upon, we sec nothing to jostit, • sanguine
etpeelation of peace. Peace has been most in the
mouth of Banat. aistr, at the. eery time when I.e
entertained the bitterest hostility in his beast. His
pacific procession, in the present instance, is clogged
with s condition that proves it hollow a-id insincere.
Ile says he is ready to conclude a peace, taking for
Its fom...fat:on the treaty of Amiens. There is no
man t. ea.... t: so Is:in.!, who (Lies na: see, that

he Las r.ri • t..^ alas/fent, to set up
the Treaty of Amiens ; and that by calling upon
England for its execution to the very letter, he
stildiowly t!..rews obstacle in the way of peace.
The face of the Continent i 3 essentially changed ince
the date of that treaty ; and he has even boasted, that
he has, in the interval, establised an entirely new ha.
lance of power in Europa. If BONAPARTE he ready to.
restore Naples, Hanover, Italy, Venice, Genoa, aC7.
to the state in which they were at the date c.f the•
treaty of Amiens, he may stand upon that treaty ;
but it would be idle to suppose that he means any
such thing.

Tae
Hamhurgh Mail, due on Sunday, arrived
yesterday, with letters and papers to the Szh. They
announce a few more of the numerous changes of
territory which BOPI•P A RTE has prepared for the
ConOnent. The cessions required of Prussia are not
confined to Anspach.
A letter from Ratisbon, of the 124th last, states,
that the ne?ociatiuns managed by Count H conic I • Z,
at Paris, are ne.irly finished, and that France has
sent her allim,tam to Berlin, in which BOS AP A arc
peremptoril, demands great 'flanges in the North
tit Germany. The :starquis LUCC/ICSINI was to set
out, from Berlin, on the SJ inst. upon his return to
Pal is. He would, probably, be the hearer of the
King of Patin! A'S answer to the French ultimatum.
The treaty alluded to in the Proclamation of Bet-
ADUCT E to the inhabitants of Anspach, appears,
therefore, to be only a part of an extensive plan of
partn.ion ; and even this treaty, though proba.
bly a mere trifle in the eyes of BON A Alt) S; com-
prehend. mach more thus the cession of Anspach.
Prussia has farther ceded Neufchatel and Valengin
to France ; and Cleves and Wesel, to the Arch-
duke FIRDIN AND. The Eledur of Huss CASSIA.
is also, as we stated in a former Paper, to be raised
to the regal dignity, under the tide of King
Cutti, and is to receive'a large accession of
territory ; he is to have from Prussia the Bishopric
of Paderborn ; and from Hese Darmstadt the
greater part of its possessions in Westplaara, and
all its territories in the county of Wetterau ; he
is to have, besides, tlie county of Tiler, all Wal-
deck, except the county of Pyrmont, which is to
be given to Prussia ; the counties of
—Fla is to cede the Hessian part of cic
burg, Auersbcrg, kc. to Pi ; and
stadt, Flamm, with the district of ScliwargeLW.ll,
—An article, under the head of Vienna, Pas. ice„:,
states, that the gams in of that city loss received,
notice of His Imperial Majesty's di:termin.vign to
reduce it to the peace establisliment at the c,:..1 of
that month. Other redaftions are also rbentirited
as immediately to take place in the Austrian army.
On the other hand. it is said, that the Archduke

The horse was a dark horse, and the cart was
dark green. He said he wanted it to gn to Croydon
Fair. Ile went on: about ten o'clock in the morn-
ing, bin he did not return till six the ne • mot ning.
%V. Paste, the husband of the last Witiuss, stated,
that Win. Clarke brought the hot se and cart
home ti-.e morning atter lie had hired it, at about
half past six. The Witness told him ht must pay
tor another day's hire; as he had kept it .o long.
This he readily agreed to, saying, that they had
been delayed by a wheel coming off, the consequence
of which was, that his companion had broken hi.

should come and have a ride in the afternoon. This
the Witness agreed to, and they patted.
Samuel Wildtiourne deposed, that he kept the
Blue Boar public house, at St. Alban's. in the af-
ternoon of the 4th of Oaniser, the pi ironer Clarke
drove into his yard ; as the ostler was not at hand,
he went himself to assist him in getting out. The
Prisoner told him not to give the horse any thing to
tat ; at this .he was much surprised, as the animal
was very hot, and appeared much fatigued. He
said to him, " Not give the horse any thing ?" the
Prisoner replied, he might give him a little hay.
'lbis indexed him to look at the name on the cart,
and he saw it was " Paste and Graves, Battle-
bridge." Clarke then went into the house, where
he was shomy atter joined by two others, one of
whom was the other Prisoner, Ray. They went in
and ont occasio,ially. supped together, and went
away about twelve o'clock, and took the London
Road. During the time they continued at the
house, a neighbour of the Witness's, of the name
of Bader, came in. and he requested Butler to go
into the room, and get into conversation with them,
as he suspeded they were about some bad pupose.
Butler spoke to the persons of the two Prisoners,
as being at the bar of the Blue Boar on the evening
of the 4th of °Risher ; he had some conversation
with them, and one or the other went out occasion-
ally, but he did not think Clarke went out. This
witness left them about nine o'clock, just as they sat
down to supper.
Thomas latt, ostler at the Blue Boar, stated that
the two Prisoners, and another man, were there on
the evening of the 4th of Oftober. About halt past
eleven he went into the room to enquire whether they
wanted their horse that night ; they said, yes. He
observed it was late, if they meant to go tar. They
said they were only going about fire miles. Ile
then harnessed the horse, and they all three went
away together.
Matilda Smith, servant to the Prosecutor (Mr.
Sheriff), stated, that she was sent out, about half-
past ten o'clock, to fetch the beer for supper. As she
came oat of doors, she saw a man standing upon the
grating where the thieves broke in, and looking
through it into the cellar; she was sure the Prisoner,
Clarke. was that man. In returning, she saw the

Dog, &early opposite to Mr. Sheriff's house. On
the morning of the robbei y, he was waked, about
two o'clock. by a cart driving up the street, and
stopping. as he thought, at his door ; he got out of
bed, and saw ens man in a chaise cart opposite to
Mr. Sheriff's door, and another man at the door,
who handed him a small parcel. The noise he
mods in opening the casement drew their attention,
and the man in the cart, said to the other,—" get
up. get up." The ntt er got up, and the cart drove
off very rapidly. He had no suspicion of any thing
wrong, and went to bed again. The night was very
light; the horse was a dark one, and the cart a light
hulk one.
