erisli other Motes, from the strictest obeirietaiesiow of the right
of nations; principles winch, in their aii-plieation to a slate
of peace, can alone effectually guarantee tli6 independence
of each goverunteut and the stability of the general awe lo-
tion.
" Faithful to these principles. the Sovereigns will maintain
them equally in those meetings at which they stay be person-
ally present, or in those which shall take place g their
Ministers ; whether it shall be their object to discuss in coin,,
moo their own interests, or whether they take cognizance of
questions in which other governments shall formally claim
their interference. The seine spirit which will direct their
councils, and reign in their diplomatic communications, shall
preside also at these meetings; and the repose of tits world
shall be constantly their motive and their end.
" It is with such sentiments that the Sovereigns have con-
somated the work to which they were called. They will not
cease to labour fur its confirmation and perfection. 'they
solemnly acknowledge, that their ditties towards God and the
people whom they gov.ern, make it peremptory on them to
give to the world, as tar as in their power, an example of
jitstiee, of concord, of moderal ; happy in their power of
consecrating, from henceforth, nil their efforts to the protction
of the acts of peace, to the increase of the internal pi °verity
etf their Status, and to the awakening of those sentiments of
religion and morality, whose empire has beeu but tuu much
en:cabled by the misfortune of the times.

THE NOETHAV EST EX P EIHT 14.—The following ailditi•
anal particulars upon this subject are from a Hull paper I—
•' The Isabella and Alexander, discovery ships, arrived it the
Humber on Saturday week; and after taking pilots on board,
sailed for the Thames the following day. Capt. Sir John
Ross, of the Alexander, reached this town on Saturday after-
noon, and set off about two hours aftery aids in a chaise tor
London. The following particulars respecting the newly
discovered race of lisquienaux were communicated by SirJ.
Ross. The discovery ships had been lying adjoining the land,
between lat. 76. and 77. fasteimil to an icebto g, for two or
three Joys, and had just shoved off, when to their great sir.
prise they saw some persons coining down from the interior,
towards the shore, in sledges drawn by dogs. Our country.

heed their meaning. On the fast introduction taking place,
the natives inquired whether their visitors emote t. 141111 the
San or the The Esquiniaux told them neither; but
from a large coubtry a great distance from the South. They
said this was impossible, as they said there was 110111tIllt to the
Southward but uninhabitable ice. It was with great difficulty
that they could be convinced of their error, or led to regard
our countrymen in any other light than as beings from some
other planet. Ott being taken on board the vessels, they
manifested the utmost surprise at every thing they saw. They
could not for some time be persuaded that the ships were
not animals, and possessed the power of speaking ; and when
told that they were of the nature of I 1111 l se*, iniintated that
could not be, silice the former went backwards and forwards,
while houses were stationary. They repeatedly bandied the
clothes of the crews, and could mot conceive what soil of
skins they were made of; their ow n covering being wholly of
that description. Of bread or grain they knew not the use ;
and on being induced to ion some of the former into their
mouths, after masticating it for atone time, spat it out again as
tasteless. Their own loud, it appears, was chiefly fish and
blubber. They had never seen any timber, and a ere quite
ignorant of its properties; so that one of them on going
aboard, and seeing a mast said upon the deck, attempted to
take it up in his hands, as it' he conceived it to be devoid of
weight. Another of them, on being taken into the cabin and
shown his image in a mirror, started back with sin ',list., and
could not, until after repeated assurance and experiments,
Le convinced that there was nut some person behind the
mirror. They appeared to have no idea of a Clod, or of a
future state ; nor do they seem, from what we can learn, to
have any enemies, but supposed themselves sole monarchs of
the universe."
