nay, it is only by the patriotism of their people that the
countries they govern, exhausted by a rapacious and merci-
less foe, have afforded them the means of resistance. The
generous spirit of enthusiasm which makes the patriotic Ger-
mans endure now with alacrity privations and hardships
of every kind, if once disappointed, could not he kindled
again, and might even recoil on the Sovereigns themselves,
who would thus have once more deserted their subjects.
From all this, it becomes evident, that on the part of o.e
Allies no peace is probable, or even possible, until ihe ene-
my accepts the very moderate conditions proposed to him as
their ultimatum.

These cond.tinns, it has been stated, were the evacuation
of all the fortresses in Germany, tie di.soluti.dr i f the Con-
feieration of the Rhine, and the with awing of the French
troops to the other side sf that river ; in a wo. d, the liberty
of Germany. But those propos:!'s have been contemptlir.tisly
eluded, or strondy rejected by BOON APA RT E Austria de-
clares, that " she has had ecourse r.. aims trly ause peace
was impossible," and the PRINCE ROYAL of SWEDEN adds,
that " BCON AP ART V. would accept of no peace unless Eu-
rope lay prostrate at b s feet." Thus the parties are fel:ly at
issue, the one unable, the other unwitling to recede, and uo
compromise seems to be within the scope ..f
It had beefs, indeed, expected by some, that the unusual
disasters which &lONA P A RT E's arms have ex pe: fenced, since
the renewiil of hostilities, would have made him relent ; but
men who entertained that opinion little knew the personal
fears which haunt the mind of that man, obdurate and cal.
bons to every thing else, lle feels confident that his tyranny
over Europe is the only safeguard of his power in France ;
he acts on that conviction, and we lave stated before the
rounds on which we think he views the subject in its proper
light. Baited on all sides by his persevering enemies, he faces
about every where with the restless activity of despair, trust-
ing that chance, intrigue, or what he calls his fortune, may
furnish him an occasion of recovering his wonted superiority.
Tied to the stake he can neither Hy noradvance ; his fet ocity is
even increased by the resistance he experiences, and be crows
louder in asserting his pretended rights in proportion a, his
power is straitened and his authority disputed. Since
Austria has declared that the usurpation of the these To ns,
" in an unlucky moment" was the prin,ipie and immediate
cause of the present war, he has treated with additions: ,e-

General Moreau spent the last hours of his life in con-
ferences with the Generals of the Allied Armies on the ope-
rations of the campaign. They often begged him not to ex-
hauit himself, and to put off the conversation to the next
day; but he insisted on continuing it, saying, that to-mor-
row he might not be able to renew it.

The Emperor of Austria wished to have the remains of
General Moreau enterred in Bohemia, where a monument
to his memory should be erected ; but the Emperor of Rai-
ctaimed the preference, Moreau being General in Chief
of the Russian service.

Buonaparte, with his usual veracity, sacs in one of his
lucubrations, that the Emperor of Austria refused to see Mo-
reau upon his arrival at the head-quarters of the Allies. Now
the fact turns out, that the Emperor of Austria shook Ge-
neral Moreau most cordially by the hand, and expressed his
satisfaction at seeing him at the head-qnarters, occupying
rank in the army in which he might so powerfully serve the
cause of mankind.

Head-quarters, at Toplitz, Sept. 9, 1813.

The advanced guards of the main army daily gain more ground
in Saxony. That of Gen Count Wittgenstein had yesterday a
very brilliant affair; it drove the enemy from Pinta and Dohna to-
wards Dresden. In the evening the enemy received considorabla
reinforcement., and attacked our troops with great impetuosity;
hot his attack was repelled by the brave Russians, and Pima, Ze.-
hist, and also Zitsebendorf were maintained. Two sqnadrons of
the nth French Hussar regiment were surrounded, during the
batik, by the Grodno Hussars, the greater pap t ut them cut down,
and the remainder, with the Lient.-Col. who commanded them,
made prisoners.
The advanced-guard of the right wing is before Zittan and Rum

there a number of prisnaers.
The Emperor Napoleon appears to have, some days ago, directed
whole force against Gen. Blucher: The latter, however, did not

ON PEACE.

, of peace have been lately circulated
'neat and in Lapland, but they have soon died
renewed clangor of arms. Unyielding sternness
one band, and the enthusiasm of natiocal independ-
ence on the other, have once more disappointed the hopes
of suffering humanity. Although we do not thialc that
the present state of the war ever justified any sanguine
expectation of that desirable event taking place immediately,
yet we shall briefly examine how far it is possible, in the si-
tuation of the Belligerent Powers, to procure a safe and
lasting peace, such as might heal the wounds which a warfare
of unexampled duration and barbarity has inflicted on Eu-
rope.

The Allies, united by a sense of common danger, are at
last recovered from an illusion which has lasted twenty
years. They now see that there is ►►o safety for them but in
joining their efforts to repel the revolutionary torrent which
bas separately carried desolation in most of their provinces,
and in all their capitals. They now have done what has been
long ago recommended to them, by enlightened and pa-
triotic w►iters, what, if done sooner, would have prevented
so many evils, and given rest to the world. After mature
deliberation, they have formed a leapt. to.secure the inde-
pendence of Europe, disclaiming openly every selfish view
of conquest and aetrandizement, and every sentiment of hosti-
lity against Fran( e «hen once separated from the revolutionary
system. had the contracting parties at Pilnitz been ani-
mated by the same spirit, “ the hydra of the revolution nur-
tured in blood," as a Russian proclamation expresses it,
would have been smothered in its cradle. In the new
league, too, those rankling animosities which have
proved so fatal to former, coalitions, %appear to have
been mutually set asicle,ond one of the principal rea-
sons assigned by Austria for going to war, is the in_
kntion openly avowed by the enemy of destroying Prussia,
her ancient rival, whose tempting spoils she Lad even been
offered to :bare. From the principles of this !!ague, there.
fore, we are induced to conclude, that it will be lasting, and
that the A2ies will not consent to a peace until they have
attained the object for which they have taken up arms, or
until (which God forbid) they have no resource left but to
sta. tit to the Conqueror.

There is another consideration which must go home to
the bosom of every oue of the Allied Pow** and tend pow-
erfully to cement their union. They must be aware that this
is the last struggle each, of them will to able to maintain;

EARTHQUAKE.—About a quarter past three o'clock in the after.
noon of Friday, the '.24th ult. a shock of an earthquake was kit very
gener..lly by the inhabitants of Stamford. and of the neighbouring
towns and villages fom west to east. The noise, to those who were
within doors at the time, resembled the falhng of fitrniture in upper
rooms, and soul? persons were sensibleof motion from the agitation
of the earth. At Ketton, tour miles west of Stamford, it excited
considerable alarm ; and it was telt also at Uppingham, Onkliam,
.Peterborough, De' ping, and must of the inter enedrate places. The
duration of the shock was about two seconds, and the noise accom•
panying it very loud.

We regret to state, that another of those dreadful calamities, the
blasting of a coalmine, occurred on 'Tuesday senniglit, at the Hall
Pit, at Farfield, in the parish of Chester-le•streer. Upwards of SO.
men and boys were killed.
A most shocking murder was perpetrated on Wednesday se'n•
night, on Mrs. Mary Watson, of Beck Hoirsef, near Griomere,
Cumberland. Her throat had been cut, and she was nine!' bruised
about her head. Her ,on was taken near Brathay Bridge, and ex-
amined at Ambleside, when the bloody knits eta. found about Idly.

to keep away. The Allies were represented to have said they
wanted no volunteers ! A strange declaration this l and one,
that it requires more than common ingenuity to reconcile
with any principle of reason. The meaning, however, of
the whole paragraph seemed to bar, that the Allies having
heard some report unfavourable to the chaff aster of the DUKE,
d d not wi•h for his company.
This was the view taken of it by the leading Ministerial
print, and on- this supposition it proceeded to idler some ani-
madversions on the language held by The Chronic'e. The
latter Journal is not in the habit of degrading itself by any
thing like ingenuous acknowledgement of error. On this
occasion it did neat so far compromise its character as man-
fully to retract, or fairly to explain. Instead of doing so, it
threw out another inuendo equally mysterious as the fo, men,
and without asserting any thing, it inquired what The Courier
would say if the intimation given to the Duke Of CUMBER-
LAND from the head quarters of the Allies, should prove to
be but an echo of one received from this Country.
The notice which has been taken of the mysterious death
Of SELL IS, for which the Proprietor of a Newspaper is now
suffering under the sentence of the law, seems to us hardly
to convey a stronger reflection on the character of his
ROYAL HIGHNESS than the devourers of Royal Scandal may
extract from this. If such insinuations are justifiable, more
ought to be stated. It were better to keep the Public in tit,
ter darkness, that to give them that glimmering of light
which may lead 'cam astray but cannot guide it. That time
may be differences in the Royal Family after what, in a re-
cent case, has been unhappily witnessed, cannot be denied,
but nothing short of the most flagitious conduct on the vat t
of the Illustrious Personage whose' name has been so often
mentioned, Could have called foi th a hint from the Govern-
ment of this Country, that his ROYAL HIGHNESS was not a
person who could, in prudence, be suffered to approach the
head-quarters of the Allies. Yet this is that which it should
seem The Chronicle would have us believe has actually taken
place. We hope shortly to be -erabled to explain the whole
of the circumstances which have been thus mysteriously
brought formatd. In the mean time, if Pie Moruin,ct Chro.
niche can justify the line of conduct it has putstien, let it fairly
state facts. Let it not blast character l,y insinuation and
impute treason by inuendo, but for once speak ut. If the
Duke of CUMBERLAND is what these would make him ar,pear,
our deference for his high rank would not mtke us wiia to
screen him from the law, in a country whose boast it is, that
equal justice is admini•tered to the Prince and the I•eas.ints

FRENCH PAPERS. -

French Papers up to the Zed inst. have brought us a series
of important communications from the seat of war. The
junction of the Saxon troops with the French ; the triumphal
entry of the Saxon Monarch 'at Dresden, where he was re-
ceived by NAPOLEON Wittiollt the city; the passage of the
Elbe by the whole French army, with time-relation of severe
smart actions which took place with the rear of the Allies on
the right bank of that river, at Hischoffswerder and Bautzen,
in which they are said to have lost collectively 4,600 ki!led,
wounded, and taken, would Nave attracted no small portion of
interest, bad not the preceding intelligence swallowed up its
its importance all minor consideration. We shall, therefore,
refer our 'readers to the French Papers. which vehicles con-
tain a nio,t fulsome and disgusting panegyric on NA P 0 L EON',
in the shape of an introduction to a general thanksgiving for
his victory at Lutzen by Cardinal MAtimtv, who, although

ducrion.
RELIEF OF HAMBUROR.

The fate of Flamhurgh still remains involved in uncertain-
ty. On the 2th instant the enemy i'miewed their attack on
the i-land of Williehushing, and notwithstanding the bravery
of the llanseat;c. Mecklenburg!), and Danish troops, by
whom it was defended, . succee.ted in ca: eying it with great
slaughter on the part of their opponents.• Two pieces of
cannon and four hued. ed in i-Oners were taken, fift., of w hone,
all Danes, were sent back to Altotta, with a declatation, that
Frarce was not at war with Denmark. Three hundred o'' the
remainder- forming part of the Hanseatic legion, were march-
ed into Ha:burg, tNo by two, wit:t their hands tied behind
then backs. The 'enemy, who had penev-ated within a few

MAY 30.

The Duke of Tarentum put himself in motion on the 25th, at five
in the morning, to march opposite Blutzin. He met, at the de-
bouch from the enemy's rear-guard ; some charges of ea•
valry were attempted against our cavalry, but unsuccessfully ; the
enemy, however, wishing to maintain himself in this position, a
fire of musketry took k,lace, and he was driven from thc. post. We
had 250 men killed or wounded in this rear-guard affair ;the
loss is estimated at 7 or I.lon men, of whom 200 are prisoners.
The second division of the young guard, commanded by General
Barrois, arrived at Dresden yesterday.
All the army has passed the Elbe. Independently of the grand
bridge at Dresden, two bridges of boats have been established, the
one above, the other below the town.
The Berlin Gazette, of the Bth, contains the regulation for the Land-
sturm. Folly cannot be carried further; but it may be foreseen,
that the inhabitants of Prussia have too much good sense, anti are.
too much attached to the real principles of propriety, to imit:ite
barbarians, who hold nothing sacred. At the battle of Lutzeo, a
regiment composed of the Elite of the Prussian Nobility, and %silo
were called Prussian Cossacks, were entirely destroyed; only fifteen
men belonging to it remain, which has covered all their families
with mourning. These Cossacks really feigned Cossacks of the
Don; tender, delicate, young men had lances in their hands which
they could scarcely support, and were dressed like real Cossacks.
What would Frederick say, if lie saw his Great Nephew at this
day seek models of uniform and appearance from them ? The Cos-
sacks are ill clothed, they are mounted upon small horses, almost
without saddles and harness, because they are irrtgular
which the inhabitants of the Don fUrnish, and which are established
at their expense. To go there to seek for the model of Nobility of
Prussia, is to shew to what point the spirit of ti►lly and incompe•
tency is carried which directs the affairs of thai kingdom.

FALL OF CASTRO.

Last niiiht's Gazette contains dispatches from Captain
ROBERT BLOYE, of the Lyra, dated off Bermeo, May 13,
avid giving an account of the capture of Castro, by the enemy
on the 1 lth, after a most gallant resistance on the part of the
garrison asiisted by some of our men. The whole garrison,
except the wounded, with many of the inhabitants, were
brought off by our ships with a trifling loss.

.Lord CATHCART'S dispatches respecting the battle of
Lutzen will be found in another part of our paper. They
are neither clear nor satisfactory. flis Lordship only claims
a success on the part of the Allies: he mentions that the
French having fought on the defensive all day, became the
assailants in the evening, and as the right wing of the Allies
changed its.front, and the whole of their cavalry was brought
from the left to fall on the advancing enemy, he hoped to
innie witnessed the. destruction of BUONAPARTE and his
whole army, instead of which he only saw the flashes of the
guns tluough the darkness, which overtook the combatants
before. the cavalry could arrive, Tie does not explain the
reasons which induced the Allies to fall back across the
Elbe, and thus allowed the whole Saxon army to join the
French.

We had prepared some observations on the defeat of the
Catholics, by a majority of four, %%hid) the unexpected in-
flux of foreign matter of primary importance compels us to
postpone. It is reported, that the SPEAKER is now em-
plo)ed in prepatin; a Bill, throwing open the Law, the
Army, and the Navy, to the Catholics ; hut excluding them
from sitting in Pailiament. We fear the Catholics have
been too near the attainment of their object to be contented
midi smaller concessions.

Friday a Mail arrived from Lisbon with letters and papers
to the 12th instant. They contain an extract of a dispatch
front the Marquis of WELLINGTON to Don M. FER EIRA
To R.). AZ, dated from Head-quarters at Frenada, the sth inst.
giving an account of the action betw?en the Anglo Sicilian
army and that of SUC HET, on the 12th of April, the official
account of which has already appeared in the London
Gazette. The Corunna Mail, which has arrived, brings
intelligence to time 23d instant, from the North of the
Peninsula It appears from an article, dated the 14th, from
Ciudad Rodrigo, that the Allies have enlarged their plan of
operations, in consequence of which a considerable force of
Eng:ish cavalry, infantry, and artillery, was passing the
Douro to attack the enemy's left flank, and to oblige him to
• abandon the Douro. The Spanish forces are also mustering
strong, and ale in excellent condition. The division under
PoßttEa has moved tow.:rds Leon. SE LVIER A with 5000

btLt a Me.ienger who arrived yesterday afternoon from Mr.
COCKEURN, our Minister at Hamburgh, and who was at first
taken for that Centleman, is said to hare announced that on
the 2Sd that city NITS not only safe, hut had been entered by

the Swedes, and that the French had made no other move-
, mews. Other reports state him to have said that there had
been three obstinate engagements between the French and
the Swedes, in which gi eat numbers had been killed and
wounded on both sides, and at the close of which the Swedes
bad rema:ned maters of the field of battle. The only fact
Litlit•rto fully ascertained, however, is, that Mr. COCKBURN
actually left Ilamburgh or the 18th instant, but it was to vi,it

•TIDE DUKE OF CUAIBEPL4ND'S SECRET

EXPEDITION.

The departure of his Royal Highness the Duke of CUM-
ERI. AND for the Continent, has given rise to a great va.
riety of reports,, and to a still greater number of conjec-
tures. At first it was not unnaturally concluded that the
object of his Mission, was to present himself to the rising
llanoverians, to heighten and consolidate the spirit of insur-
rection which had manifested itself. about that time. It
vas thought that he was going out on the supposition, that
that loyal people, struggling to burst the shackles of
France, would have felt inspired with new ardour in their
glorious cause, when they saw at their head a Prince of the
Blood of that Sovereign, under whose sway' they bad so long
happily lived, and to whom they still remain fondly attach-
ed. This conjecture was so rational, that it obtained im-
plicit credence, and though certain Journals seemed
disposed to indulge their usual levity on the occasion,
by sneeringly speaking of the vast benefits which might
be expected to result to the common cause, from sending
out so able and" accomplished a General as the Duke of
CU:ABEM AND, the prevailing sentiment was greatly in fa-
vour of the measure.

About the time of his departure, The Morning Chronicle
took occasion, on the sale of his Royal Iligbness's wines, to
endeavour to throw an air of mystery on the circumstance
of his quitting England. We were told that his Royal High-
ness's absence was likely to continue for years; and to this
story, it was endeavoured to give a higher colouring, by ob
serving, that wine was not understood to be the worse for
age, leaving it, of course, to he inferred that, from its
sale, it might be conjectured that Prince had no intention
ever to return.

The Papers next informed us, that his Royal Highness
had left England for the Continent, " equally prepared for
love or war ;" and it was more than insinuated that a ma-
trimonal connection between him and the sister of the Em-
peror of Russ] A was on the mph.

While it was supposed after this, that the Royal lover was
vigorously pursuing his suit ; while all were in expectation
of a new alliance being formed between England and her
August Ally ; while all the poets of the day were preparing
to slur the loves of CUMBERLAND and the Archduchess of
RtmtA, a new account, big with mystery, appeared in the
intelligent Morniv Chronicle. Recurring to the subject in
its usual way, it mentioned that it had been intimated to the
Duke of CUMBERLAND that he was not expected to iwnor
the head-quarters of the Allies with his presence. This
inuendo was evidently intended to convey, in the strongest
planner, a belief, that his Royal Highness bad been directed

FOOT RACE.

A foot race for 400 gnineas, between Cross, Captain Barclay's
groom, and Rainer, the Kentish butcher (which of them should
first perform 100 miles, the latter giving Cross an hone of starting),
took place yesterday selmight on Sunbury Common. Cross started at
11 o'clock, and Rainer at one. Cross did twenty miles in two
hours and 57 minutes, and halted a few minutes for refreshment;
and Rainer did the same in two hours and a half, and halted to
change his shoes. Rainer Ivas within three milesot his adversary at
'2B miles Running, when he breakfisted, during which time Cross
headed him considerably. Rainer ran in the Sell. mile muck
weakened, and he was confined to his marquee by a sort of sickness
some minutes, when betting became in favour of Cross, who was
going on well. Rainnr was six miles behind, when he recoverel,
and Cross skewed symptoms of w'eakne,s, having gone 49 miles in
five hours and 40 minutes; he continued tutt:l be fell down in going
the 46th mile, but he recovered a little, got to tit:' marquee, and after
having been rubbed he went another tonr miles, when he broke down ;.
the tendons below the calf of his legs having been injured. Clotain
Barclay accompanied his man the greater part ct the journey.
Rainer's next objet t was to perform the distance in 101:ours, to do
which he. had something more than five mites an hour to uertortn.
He was often distressed, but recovered, and in doing the 9 tst mi!e
in 17 hours, he fell exhausted, and was carried to Hampton. 13,7 th
remained in bed at Hampton on Saturday. Rainer, on Sunday
morning, did the remainder of his ground in little more eon two
hours. Cross remains verb lame.

ARMISTICE BETWFEN THE FRENCH AND THE ALLIES.

AND CONGKESi FOR A GENERAL PEACE.

We give the following important communication out of
yesterday's Times, by which it appears to be fully credited;
yet, althougk the report of a General Congress to be holden
at . Prague appears true, we think that the intelligence of
the armistice may be one of these appendages which, like
polish to coin, are added by circulation to every kind of
news. The rumour seems, however, to derive some confir-
mation from the statement lately published of the refusal of
the Allies to receive the French Princes at their head-quarters,
on the ground that such a measure would be totally incompa-
tible with their intentions, which were, not to overturn the
present Government of France, but to limit its power.
Such a declaration on their part, disclaiming any Personal
hostility, would alone be sufficient to make BUONAPART;
propose terms of pacification to them. It is also possibie,
that the reported Witt giveu to the Duke of CUMSERLASD

PANTHEON.

The attractions of this Theatre continue to increase, and
this wiil always happen where exertion keeps pace with suc-
cess. The 7'rarellers, once the most splendid performance at Old
Drury, has been produced here this week, with undiminished lustre
The magnificence of its scenery bas been augmented by some addi-
tional views. One represerting an irruption of Vesuvius, is full of
grandeur and sublimity. The rolling thunders of the mountain &ire
heird at a distance, whilst its dark cone appears on the other side
of the bay, enveloped-in lurid snioke. On a sndden a red glare an-
nounces an irruption; showers of fire emitted from the volcano,
fall and seem to quench themselves in the waters of the bay ;
a flood of blazing lava tolls down the sides of the mountain, and
during this tremendous agitation of nature, a procession of nuns
and friars with lighted tapers moles slowly along the shore, channt-
ing the Sicilian Mariner's Hymn. The airy forms and white veils of
the nuns, the trembling beams of their tapers, and the soft and solemn
cadence of their voices, contrasted with the terrific grandeur Or
the labouring volcano, form a most impressive and sublime scene.
The decorations do not constitute the only excellency of Ike
Travellers, as represented at this Theatre ; the parts are well cast
and ably sustained. Mr. HILL, as Koyan, displays considerable
poWers of voice, regulated by a pure taste, and is well supported
by Miss SINGLETON, Miss GREVILLE, Mr. HILLINGTON, and
Mr. Muso RAVE.

This performance, which would have done honour to one of our
Winter Theatres, it scarcely need be added, attracts very full
houses.
