TH e intelligence which Government has received,
confirming anti giving in detail the statement oftfie

Prisoners,- who surrendered to• us between die
gth And zoth of May, amounted to nearly ,z 600 men,
the flower of the French Army.; that the Convoy
which had fallen into Our handy was most valuables
and that the articles of which it consisted, wtre such
as the Enemy must 'be materially affeded by the
,want of them, consisting of cloathing, wine, spi-
rits, &c. ; and that the advantages we had gained
were likely to be the earnest 'of.-future success, by
adding tb our force. The Mamilukes, whose mi-
t,
litany charafter as Cavalry is very high, under the
orders of OSMAN BEY, the successor' of Motrp,AP
BEY, had joined us, to the number of 1500. The

" Batavia Helvetia , and the..:Cisalpine, are

the Tmper.:al Rouse of Commons towards the eoneltt,
sitm of the last Session of Parliament by a Member
of the Old Administration. It seems to us hardly
necessary to inquire what were the plans, and *hat
the resolutions 'cif the former Ministers ; but still
less so, what were the individual sentiments and
Opinions of one of the Members of it. A view of
the past can-bi.useful only as it throws light on the
future ; and it is evident that in the present instance
this is not the case...We shall not here enter into the
question,whether there is any justice in the hypothetic
prediftions of the Moniteur with resped to the future
destiny of England, if the principle of keeping all
that has been taken *were to be henceforth assumed
as the diplomatic basis. We some time ago ex-
pressed our conviction, that .the present Ministers
Were disposed to make a sacrifice of part of their
Conquests on the Attar of Peace, and we have every
reason to be satisfied that we were not deceived in
our ideas of the moderate and wise plans which they
had purposed to adopt. It could, however, hardly
have been supposed, that they would have consented
to purchase the desirable blessing of Peace, by con-
cessions, if the Enemy on their part did not, at the
tame time, pay for it a correspondent price. The
secret objet} of the Moniteur seems to us to be a de-
sire of inculcating the idea that France had already,
beforehand, made these concessions, that therefore
she has no longer any to make, and that England
alone, must come forward in future with her resti-
tutions. It is in this political track that we propose
to follow the French Writer, and if this article, like
that in the Moniteur, occupied some length, it is to
it '
ereeQeded that though the road to truth he short,
(Wien rendered difficult by the obstacles which
error throws in the way.
" Of all its Conquests, France has preserved but
42 very small part : all has been evacuated, and the
quilibrium of Europe re-established."—lt is not
easy to conceive to. what sort of men this is ad-
dressed. The French have acquired in Europe, ei-
ther by force of arms, or by the etre& of corruption,
the Low Countries, Holland, part of Germany,
Switzerland, and Italy. If it be inquired, what of
all this they have evacuated, it will be. found to be
but a very small part : it may be reduced to a few
'Provinces in Germany which they could only pre-
serve pro tempore, during- the War. All the rest is
either annexed to their Territory, as Savoy,. the
.Pays de Vaud, and all the vast Countries which are
situated on .the Banks of the Meuse and the Rhine,
or are occupied by their Troops, as Holland, Swit-
--sserland, and the whole ,of Italy', from the toot of
the Piedmontese Alps to the extremity of the Ap.
penines, and as far as the Gulph of Tarentum.
This, which is an undoubted fad, and which can_
not be contested, proves evidently that hardly any
thing has been evacuated. With resped .to what
bas,
been done towards the re-establishment of
'he equilibrium of Europe, we would ask s.4:lle_
thor we are to look for it in Holland and
Switzerland, compelled to sacrifice to their new
Allies, a path of their Territory—Compelled to

Whom had perhaps never heard of the French, in-
disposed to all'ortv them to remain at peace ?
After having with equal impudence and impru.
d~nre advanced these,prOpositions, which are to be
destroyed by the slightest evidence, the French
Journal immediately says, "Let the English Aa'mi-
; •
'z'uration. imitate this conclua, and Peace soon
"lade." If this recommendatiOn were to be fol.
71ed, so far from Peace being the result of it, the

to dimioishher. offensive means. Let France set an

at this mbment in existence, eat, the term ApEutr3
be applied to Governments which are unable to pre_
serve even their nominal existence; without giving
up to their Enemies their Provinces, their For-
tresses, and their Ships ?
Of the reasoning of the French Journalist we
should conceive the above a :sufficient specimen.—
He does not appear to be more fortunate in his:in-
formation, when we find him saying, that Russia,
Sweden, Denmark, and Prussia, have been, and
still are in a state of hostility against England.:--
Lord Sr. HELENS is far from finding at Petersburgh
those dispositions with which the English Admihi-
stration flattered themselves."
It can hardly be of the smallest utility to add new
hypotheses and new predidions to those which the
Moniteur gives us respeding the Elelorate of Hano-
ver. The causes which have led to the occupation
of it by the Prussians, and those which may produce
the evacuation of it, are too remote from public
knowledge, to allow us to ent2r into such a mass of
uncertainty. It is only where we are in possession
of evidence that we think it necessary to touch upon
the errors of the Official Journal.
In conformity with this principle, we shall tram_
scribe one of the four conclusions which it draws from
what it has said—'' In the present situation of Natiozs
no one is more interested than England in abjuring
the principle that at a Peace every thing ought to be
retained which was gained when in arms." After
having read this, we should be tempted to believe
that England had in the present -War lost her Fleets,
her Colonies, and her National Glory ; that she
was at the mercy of her Enemies, and that she had
no other resource than in the justice and relative
interests of the other Powers. When, on the con.
trary, it is. 'considered that she has in succession
defeated the most considerable Naval Powers
next to herself, that she has taken from them
their most valuable Colonies, that she posses
,_:es the whole of India, that she has now the exclu

sive Commerce of the whole world, it can certainly
never be believed, however the Interest of parti
cular Nations may be conneded with that of the
rest of the World; 44- that no one is mare interested
than England in abjuring the principle, that it a
Peace every thins ought to be retained which tvae
gained when in arms." We are far however from
meaning to adopt an opinion in direet, opposi.
don to this, and we have stated above, that our
Government s inclined to make those sacrifices ;
but they will be dilated by their nweltrativs, and
not by their interest. They should besides weigh
in the balance much more than those which the
French have made, or rather pretend to have made ;
for it is to be remarked, that hitherto the latter
have only been made to Powers who were not, or
who are no longer Allies of England, and that the
latter consequently is, in this respell:, under no
obligation to the French. All those which England
.will make at a Peace will, on the contrary, be made
diiedly to France or to her Allies. This distinc.
don is necessary to be made, because in endeavour-
ing to gain credit for the Evacuations and Restitu.

tions made by the Republicans, the illoniteur has am.

fully endeavoured. to persuade its Rulers, that the
latter having given up:all that it could.give- up,
this Country ought neither to require, nor to expeet
any farther concession. If the French are them-

:selves the dupes of we believe that

'they are the only people on whom it can produce
any other sensation than-contempt.
