THE DANGER OP PE4CE /Pint BONA-

P.4R7E.

Many Politicians upon the Continent, and in
England, ate of opinion, that Bonaparte, unable
to injure ua by any offensive undertakings, will
finally, and perhaps sooner than may be expected,
bring forward such proposals as will be followed
with impolitic negotiations, to be terminated by a
more impolitic and dangerous pacification. The
impatience of his own soldiers, now threatened
with a second winter campaign, without any enemy
to combat, or any country• to pillage, may force
him to temporary sacrifices, as the only means of

preventing the army, destined to annihilate liberty
and happiness in England, from punishing an Im-
postor in dethr-ning a Tyrant. Malta may be
given np, and Hanover evacuated ; France may
consent to sign a commercial treaty ; and Holland
may be forced to renounce some of its colonies;
but, great as these advantages might be regarded in
ordinary times, in the present relative situation of
England and France, they are only the wages and
allurements of bondage from the latter to the for-
mer, as long asa gim-boat exists opposite our shores,
and the Corsican shall not consent to the destruc-

vion of his armada, and give, if possible, security

that no such means of menace shall be resorted to
in future. While his flotilla exists, there uno secu-
rity against invasion, shelter from alarm, or limit
to expence. In former treaties of peace, it has been
usual to establish on each side of the disarming pow-
ers, reciprocal and respectable commissioners to
superintend and effectuate the mutual disarmament.
Heretofore such commissions were limited to dis-
mantling ships of the line and frigates ; but with

these the danger does not now rest. A gun boat, as
an unit of an armada of gun-boats, is an objea of
more insufferable offence, than La rue de Paris of
three decks. An assassin dwarf, destined and dis-
posed for midnight mischief and murder, is more
dangerous to the safety and san6tity of repose, titan
the huge noon-day giant, capari-oned for undis
sembled contest Let England poniard the Corsican
dwarf of assassins, and ,he will remain confident

against the giants of the world in arms Not only
the quiet aucl indeverdence of Great Britain, but ul
Europe, require, Aeviously to the signature or ra-
tification of a peace, the destruction of Bonaparie's
flatilla, either by battle or by compact ; it must be
blown from the boson of the Ocean by British
cannon, or blasted in its o ports from the face of
creation, by the omnipotence of convention.—
Were our enterprhing forces in the West Indies to
continue the:r valottrous and victorious career, and
be as completely and ultimately successful as their
brethren in the East; were they to annex all the
colonies of France aid Holland to our country
by conquest, it would, in our opinion, be better,
far better, that Gr. at tritaitt sla old return them
all at a peace, without an equivaleto, without even
the redemption of any thing los: in the course ani
casualties of war, than to suffer Brmiparte's gun-
boats to remain in existence, even without masts,
rigging, or Grimmer. Scuttling, swamping, even
burning will not do, unless, by burning, is meant to
be implied, the drawin;.; them up high and dry
upon the beach, and reducing th:m to ashes.
That 13:maparte will n.:t consent to such humi-
liations, a paragraph in the Mouarae, not long ago,
declared,' when copying from the London prints
some speculations concerning the necessary arrange-
ments, previously to a peace bring possible between
England and France. It added, " that was even a
victorious English army at the gates of Paris, the
delenda rut podia would not be signed." That the
subjugation of this country is Bonaparte's un-
changeable intent, only traitors can deny and fools
doubt. Laying aside his proverbial hatred against
the British etrire ; his safety, as a criminal ind.vi-
dual, and hi rank, as an usurper, require the ab-
solute remc,Fal of the only barrier, of the only ral-
lying point, around wh, ch the good and loyal may
still assemble, and defe id the threatened independ-
ence of the world ; from which they may still issue
forth and revenge outraged humanity, blasphemed
reliAion, and insulted hereditary sovereignty. From
what we hive seer: Lbese last eighteen months, but
partictairly since last May, when Bonaparte offi-
cially declared, that his armada had obtained its
completion in men and vessels, it is not probable,
notwithstanding his audacity and confidence in for-
tune, that he se:lle:pose his great plans and greater
boasts, to be overturned, and their fallacy pub-
lished, by an attempt o s this country, which, in his
own mind, he must be convinced, will meet with
defeat and disgrace. On the other hand, unlimited
as his power is, and heavy as the fetters of his
slaves are, it is neither probable that so many mil-
lions have been expended in building vessels merely
for a shew, nor such expellees submitted to in keep.
ing up armies only for a parade ; should it be dis-
closed to France and Europe (and that it must be
so soon, is little d ,übted), how desperate and despica-
ble, because imprafticable, his schemes and means
to conquer this country are ; num.:tons internal

THE BRITISH PRESS.

LON DON,
THURSDAY. OCTOBER 4.

We have received Dutch Papers to the 30th last.
They state the arrival of the E‘trratoit and EM.-
r aess of the FRZNCII at Mentz, upon the 2.lth. It
is also stated, upon the authority of Coe Italian
Newspapers, that Malta is to be given to ossia, in
pursuance of a treaty concluded between that power
and England.

We have been favoured, by our correspondent at
the Hague, with the following particulars, in a let-
ter dated Sept. 23. " Our Government was in
daily expel:dim of a courier from our Ambassa-
dor to the Ex, stout of the Faaitcm, M. SCIIIM•
MaLPIPISIFICK, who attended On BONAPAILTR, at
Aix-la-Chapelle, where, unexpededly, he arrived,
having left the EMPaROII, the Euless's, and the
Imperial Court at Cologne, last Sunday. Imme-
diately after his arrival, he waited upon our Di-
reaory, and had a conference, which lasted five
hours. When it was over, the Dire,:lory sent cou-
riers to several of its members, who were on their
estates in the country, desiring their immediate re-
turn; and SCHIMMILPII4NINCIL dispatched a cou-

vier to M. de SimotiviLLE, the French Ambassador
in this country, but who now accompanies BO-
NAP ARTE in his journey on the banks ofj the
Rhine. Some few hours after, the French Charge
des A tredve! received dispatches from TA It, LY-
R A SD, at Menu, which he communicated to our
government in the presence of the Prussian
Charge del ,Vainer ; and in the night two couriers
left this place, one for Mentz, and the other for
Berlin. The cause of this political bustle is the
source of various conjedures. The most common
opinion is, however, that it concerns some imme-
diate change in our Government; and if the French
Republic has an hereditary Emperor, the Batavi.tn
Commonsveaith will soon have an hereditary King.
Others pretend, that to prevent a rupture with Rus-
sia, 130 N APART! has, upon certain conditions, pro-
posed to evacuate Hanover, which is to be oc-
cupied by Prussian troops ; and that, in addition
to our other burdens, we are to take into our
pay the French army now in Hanover. There
is no truth in the report in the German and
French Papers, that Count DE STA LK EL BERG, the
Russian Ambassador, intends to leave this country.
As late as yesterday, we are certain, his Excellency
had received no orders to that efreEt. Neither does
the Swedish Ambassador, Count LOWENHJELM,
expeEt to be ordered away, having, last week, re-
newed the lease for the house he occupies. It must,
however, be acknowledged, that BONAPARTE does
not see with pleasure the continuance here of di-
plomatic agents from countries which have none in
France, and that probably lie may insist upon their
departure."

fhe Lisbon packet, which has been permitted to
sail, carries out a Messenger from this Government,
with dispatches to Mr. Parse, the Secretary of Le-
gation, who remains at Mai.!tid. These dispatches,
it is understood, contain the points on which Mr.
FRF.RII is instru;Eted to obtain a definitive answer
from the Spanish Government ; and if it be not
satisfaaory, war will immediately be declared. A
Spanish Messenger likewise carries out dispatches
from the Chevalier d'Alsou AGA to his Court. The
sailing of the Spanish and Portuguese convey is de-
ferred. Spanish vessels now in our ports, however,
are allowed to clear out.

Two small French vessels, one from Hourdeaux
and the other from Quimper, have been sent into
Plymouth, laden with wine, brandy, and wheat,
for the French fleet at Brest. They were dtiven by
the. Pie Ale schooner into a bay, and were boarded
and brought out by the Pickle': boats. The names
of the two vessels are the Marie _.raiweat.,e and die
Desiree.

A Court of Dire tors was yesterday held at the
East-India House, when the undermentioned Cap-
tains were sworn into the command of the following
ships of the ensuing season, viz.
C,ptnin Charles &NIA. (:,,b14,2 (in the room of Capt
Tim-
rnina, re*igne,l), to the Royal Goarge ; an.t C yt. Nrchibald
flantilton, to the Wital,,,o Caole, for Bombay all,l China.
Capt 'AMA JOhe Wilitatilion (in the roam of Capt. Pat-
ton, rlecwseit), to the 04:,!.111, fur Madras and Oahu'

The following ships were ordered to be afloat
on the C2d inst. and to sail to Gravesend the Silt of
November ; they ate appointed to remain there 40
.lays, and to be in the Downs on the 21st Decem-
ber, viz.

Earl of Abergavenny, Capt. John Wurdtworth, jun. for

The Court adjourned at an early bout till Friday
next, when a ballot will be taken for permitting
Mr. CASA MAJOR, of the Ma.tras Civil Service, to re-
turn to India with his rank in the Company's service.
Tuesday the LORD MA vow held a Wardrnote for
the Election of an Alderman for the Ward of Bassi-
shaw, in the room of GROROZ CLARKS, Esq. when
CI. AV 0113 HUNTIR, Esq. of Spring Gardens, pro-
posed by Mr. Deputy 801.0b1011 W•DO, and se-
conded by Mr. Gtoacie LERRLY, was unanimously
elected.

Several of the Merchants of London have remon-
stratel against the removal of the Harbour Master's
Office to Limehouse. The ground of their remon-
strance is, the unavoidable inconvenience that
must aut ,sd their daily intercourse with that Office."
On Thursday next, the Books for receiving the
Subscriptions of those holders of Loyalty Lian
who intend to take the benefit of the late a& will
finally close. The short interval that has elapsed
since the declaration of the option of the Lords of
the Treasury may possibly have been the means of
preventing some of the parties concerned from con-
senting to the proposed arrangement, not having
had time thoroughly to understand the nature of
it. For every 1001. of Loyalty, the Holder is to
have tOOl. in the Navy Five per Cents. receiving
half a year's dividend on the same on the sth of Ja-
nuary next, in addition to that which will he due on
his Loyalty Stock on the 10th inst. and further, is to
have so much Three per Cents. Reduced as is equiva-
lent to the difference between the value ,tf 10',1. Navy
Fives and 1001. Sterling. The Subscriber, diet elate,
gets by this arrangement a e:tur • (lat-
ter's dividend ; and instead of 1001. to he received
in April, has the value of 1001. in on whidi
the Interest commences immediately, althonh the
principal cannot he transferred till the period-when
he would have, in the case of his not consenting,
been entitled to his money.
