Lird Castlereagh, who has so happily brought the
T• ,'fity with France to a conclusion, and to whom not only
hs country but all Europe owe such extensive obligation,
was expected in town yesterday or this day, from Paris.

Among the most satisfactory conditions of the present
IVnitive arrangement with France, we have to announce
an 'Afect nal provision, with ample security for the discharge
of the debts, public and private, due from France to Bri-
tain. In the regular times of the commonwealth of nations,
it was considered a point of honour, as well as of justice,
to acquit, on the restoration of peace, the debts resulting
from the war, as well as those remaining unsettled from the
preceding peace, interrupted by it ; but in the atrocious
system introduced by the Frenchllevolution, and confirm-
ed and consolidated by Buonaparte, it was a matter of
pride in France to give no satisfaction, no justice, on these
point=, and according as the wrong done by withholding
I►hat was due, was more outrageous, it was mare gratifying
to the insole:!ce of French predominance. In the last peace
with Louis, the public claim of Britain, amounting to seve-
ral millions, was given up as a kind of complimentary boon
upon the restoration of the Bourbons ; but the subsequent
revolt to Buonaparte having cancelled the former Treaty,
the gift is resumed and included in the debt, which is the
object of the present settlement.

The trading and mercantile classes are of course, ex-
tremely anxious to learn whether a Treaty of Commerce
with France has been adjusted or is merely in a progressive
state. This subject, which involves a variety of conflicting
interests relative to native manufactures and commodities,
and colonial produce, and which consequently requires the
most serious and minute attention, is, we understand, re-
served for future consideration.

The Peace, beyond all possib;:ity of question, is the
most advantageous ever _obtained by Great Britain,
and it is the most honourable too, because it follows
upon a struggle far more arduous than any of our se-
verest former contests: a struggle, which combined fo-
reign and domestic -difficulties, in their most threaten-
ing excess, depriving us, at one period, of 'nearly every
foreign resource, either for military assistance, or com-
mercial support, converting oar antient friends into
emnies, and calling upon us to increase our expences,
proportion as the customary means of supplying them
d:mioisLed.

The Journ4l de Paris states Divine service is regularly
performed every Sunday, according to the rites of the
Church of England, in the Temple of the Oratoire, in
Paris. The band of the Guards executes the music of the
Psalms ; the service is performed with great regularity ;
and it is generally attended by the most respectable
English families at Paris. _ _
