FROM THE FRENCH FRONTIERS. At/GMT 7.

We learn from the head-ipiarters of the Prussian
troops, that the review will take place at the end of
this month, in the neighbourhood id Ltgity. It is
hoped that the King of Prussia will he ',resent at
the review. The inhabitants are the inure willing
to make the necessary preparations, as they ore per-
suaded that this review will be the last, and that the
Prussians will march away in October. At !Het►
they already name the French Generals who are to
eutuntand at Thionvtlle, Mut eeeee eily, Longwy, and
Sedan ; and it is added, that as the troops of the
hoe will not be sufficient for the service, some bat-
talams of the nab 0000 al guard will be added to them.
The fortrra'es are to be re►tored, with their
&c. in the same state as they were de-
livered to the allied troop►.

EXTRACT OW A LETTER FROM IRUN, JULY 26.

One or our most able diploniatists, accompaiiied
by a numerous suite. is to repair bevy shortly to
the Cougre►s of Sovereigns, at Aix•la-Chapelle.
The public do not know whom the King has
chosen fur this important mission, but there is
every reason to suppose that one of his Majesty's
Ministers will be intrustrd with it. At this mu.
metal Spain has important interests to settle, and
will powerfully solicit the mediation of some of
the great Powers ; on the one side the United
States have assumed such a hostile attitude, that
it is not easy to see bow our diffirences with that
Power will terminate ; they are of such a nature
that it is affirmed our Ambassador is recalled. On
die other hand, our differences are still iu the same
state with the Court of Rio Janeiro; the latter
makes such extravagant demands. that it would
sheer great weisktie.ii to accede to them.
The last dispatches from General Morillo are of
a pretty late date, lie begins to recover front his
wounds, cod hopes, he says, soon to he able to
take the field again. The General, however, dues
not dissemble, that without a considerable rein-
forcement of good troops, which he requests may
be sent as ►ton as possible, it nill be impossible
for him to carry on, with any hope of a favourable
issue, the destructive war which the Insurgents
wage against him.
The Viceroy of Mexico alto desires a reinforces

meat of 3,000 men fur the gatrison of Yen, Cruz,
to keep epee the communication between that city
and Mexico. In Peru also our affairs are not in
the most brilliant condition. How is it possible,
in the circumstances in which we are, to provide for
the expenses of such expeditions ? This is a ques-
tion which every body asks, hut the answer is dif-
ficult. To those evils abroad, is added the fear of
the plague, which lays waste the coasts of Africa.
The most rigorous measures are adopted to pre-
serve the Peninsula from this dreadful scourge.—

We leave received Dutch Papers to the t2th
instant. We have not been without bur fears, that,
in this age of legitimacy. the title of Beastaoopez
to the Throne of Sweden would he questioned at a
convenient season. This opportunity recently oc-
curred on the arrival of the eldest son of the
deposed King GUSTAVUS at full age. Upon
that occasion the deposed King suggested to his
son the propriety of adhering to that form which,
as Crows Prince, he would have been bound to
observe. The young Prince, however, declined all
interference. As the nephew of the Emperor of
RUSSIA, we may presume lie was well advised in
thus declining any intention to assert his claims to
the Throne of Sweden, of which his father was di-
vested by the legitimate voice of the nation.

Notwithstanding the resolution made by the
Allies against the admission of any Diplomatic
Agent at the Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle, we en-
tertain the just hope that the Monarchs *ill not
refuse to take into attentive consideration the serious
differences which exist between our Court and that
of Portugal. With respect to the important events
which have recently taken place, and probably
those which are now passing in the Florida., it
would be in some degree an insult to the enlight-
ened wisdom of the High Allied Powers to doubt
of their earnest endeavours to gain information and
explimations on the subject of a quarrel, the con-
sequences of which may be incalculable.—(Madrid
