In proof• of the high perfeCtion to which the

The news of Peace being again restored to tin,
Cimntry, WAS received' kith the greatest acclama-
tions of joy by the Inhabitants of this place.
.A'
soon as, the Mail arrived with a confirmation of the
pleasing intelligence, a party of the Horse Artillery'
were drawn. out on the Quay, and fired a Royal Si-
lute ; the Poole Armed Association and Volunteers,
in the course
.of, the afterngot„were also drawnout,
and each fired a feu-de-joje ; the Corps of..i3rownset
Artillery marched to Brownsea, and' there fired fron:
-the great guns a Royal Salute also. .In. the:euninA,
a genera' illumination took place ; some

devices, and quite emblematical, were displayeL;.
'to-day a dinner on the occasion is prepaiedar
New Antelope, 'which will be -very fully attended ;
indeed the general joy expressed by the Inhabitancy

M. (Jiro certainly knew of the Surrender cf
AleNancltja at the titne of signing the Preliminaries
of Peace. We believe he communicated at tile
time this highly-pleasing intelligence.

The intelligence of the signing the Prer.m.nai les
of Peace has been received throughout the WI 0:e
Country with the greatest' exultation.: The enly
disapproving men on this great and auspicious eveti
are a few -disappointed Stock:jobbers and evil-
minded men,

On Saturday last the K:nsington Association
fired a leo.cle-joye at Kensington Palace, in honour
of the signing of the Preliminaries of Peace beiween
England. and France.
Opposition, who breathe their disappointm.nt
through the medium of the Morning Chronicle,' Live
inadvertently ascribed to Administration the nob!e“'
motivesfor the-prosecuti6n of the War in whh:li we
have been-so long engaged. They have at length
defined the objea of hostilities on our pair-, by slip-
ping out a conviaion that the Ministers sought Or
nothing bat PEACE. Peace, says this vehicle- of envy'
and discontent, is all,we.have got, but it confesses cWt
lase nothing. The anoderation, liberality, justice., aci
honour of Britain, surely never shone with gteater
splendour than on the present occasion. She has pro
ed to the world that neither resentment, amhitiCp, nor
aggrandizethent formed any part of her political
conduct ; that War was einbarked -in-for the sole
purpose of obtaining PeaCe, which could not other-.
wise be possessed, and-for the,attainutent of which
she has, with a liberal hand,. restored what she-. has
the power of keeping ; and held out the olive
branch at'a period when her energy and resources
were fully adequate to extend her conquests ah 4
triumphs to the remotest Climes.

Are Ministqs then to- be censured for hayinff
proved that Peace, not Conquest—that domestic
security, not accession of territory —.that
general interest of Europe; not sordid self-101'
ness, were the- principles that iuggestedall
measures ? . These have,, at length; been e,,1J.?

_but Peace, we have obtain
all we sought for ; while France, 'in quest of Lillie

linquished views that were more an object with 10
than 'all we haie ceded. To say that, the acquire

When the British Ministry, after having been I.c"
luttantly involved in War, talked of requiring
constant ridicule, and c>:,
tdletr viot)r'd.f.49rtlie fast
underwent
cited the constant abuse, of Opposition,. The 10'
thearide security for the fitare,
nistry were told, it was the height of arrogance to
demand such terms, and that by mentioning theil's
they plainly indicated a.. disposition to prolong O'er
War, inasmuch as they talked of re9tiiring
they conceived it to be impossible that'the.Frer'c,
Government should ever grant. But these offensivY
words are now used by the _Opposition themselvevi
in their favourite organ the lacaL;7l Chronicle,
the new Peace is in, that withtent journal- stigo''l
tized, 9r rather honoured, with its scurrilous I!0,
because it does not, as it says,- af; -." ;rd f
