The important question of the renewal of the
Quadruple Alliance between England,
Austria, and Prussia, is stated in irritate letters
front Aix-lu-Chapelle to be the subject winch m,w
occupies the attention of Congress. Next to the
plan of leaving the Allied Army as an Army
of Observation on the borders of Franc... this
would be likely to excite the jetrlorel of that
nation. We shall Ise, therefore, glad to learn
that a formal coinnact to that effect less been
declined. It would indeed be a retractation of
their declared couliJesice in the good disposition of
the French people, which has beet, made the gv‘tutid
of the ettsette • . and it would add gto the
security of Europe. As long as the Allied Sove•
reigns continue actuated by their ple-eitt
their suljects will have die einne eersirity against
the aggression of Franc sty,. Wttlimit this spirit or
