THE KING OF
.FI?ANCE.

We have tnneh•plensure in-relating the follovvin
incAent, as it spews. that though adversity is too
often the touchstone oicloyalty and duty, as well as
of friendship, it does not always annihilate'those
feelings, and strongly illustrates the lines of the
Poet, when applied to this illustrious fugitive and
the detestable usurper of his thr.one- _ ,

" And more true joy :VI AR e F,Lt.us, exil'd, feels;
" Than C /ASA It with a Senate at tus heels."
Since LOUis the XVlllth's arrival in London, his
love for the arts and sciences induced him to vis.t alt
the public edifices and curious:establishments of this
metropolis. On Tuesday last, at two, o'clock, ac-
companied by the Prince of CONDS, he went to ,iee
the ingzmious and incomparable Astronomical Es-
tatilishinent of L'Abbe VmsoN.

On his entrance, his Majesty was very, agreeably.
surprized to see himself -surronnded by more_ than
460 French Etnigrauts, whom a desire to see their
unfortunate, bat much beloved King, had attraacct
there, and to whom the Abbe VINS6N could tici
refuse entrance into his -public establishment.—
The numerow,:and faithful crowd, conformably to
the orders of Louts the XVIElth, did' not shout
their acctistomed cry Cf " rive le Rol!, Five Is
1,toi!" His Majesty wishing to reinata brcognit,
But the tears of joy that ran down their• t
and the emotion of every .heart, and even
Lot;rS 01e XVlllth, sht:wed that he
was in- thy midst (:of. hiS faithful and dearest sus-
jeas. During the eiplanatory Lecture of the
Abbe VINSON, Louts the XVlllth made soirte
ingenious remailts on the obieNs ex, Hated 'to
him, and, on his retiring, he said to the Abbe
VINSON, with the accent and emotion of a fath,..,r,
'for whom one had procured the sight. of his
dear children tout ce 97:e void .itz"dver,
Attol!S% Abbe, et tout ce quie vows ufavei
fit vuir, prkUrd la plus d wee jouissUnee
sous toes les rapprira; du cote de re'sprit et du ciote
dre ca, r. But it was perhaps the greatest source of
enjoyment to.him, to whom theSe w6rd3 were
,ad-
dressed,. since he had 'the happiness of bringing to-
gether, itt hiS public establishment, his couittryruen
and his lawful Sovereign. The English crowd who
were assembled at the door of the Pantheon thought
it not their duty to imitate the silence Of the Frcncli
assembled in the interior,; for; on Louts i'he
XVIIIth coming out, they received him with many
repeated shouts of buzia! buiza &c.
from the highest windows of 'the neighbouring
houses, many people, waving their handkerchiefS
and their hats, proved the pleasure which his pre-
sence afforded them, and the interest with Which
he inspireS the English Nation who, in expeda7
Lida of a more happy moment, gen:Tously receives
into their capital hirriself, his august family; and all
his ltiyalsdad faithful subjeas.

trer a free joke, luiLt the fisnman thought it a stall

dcidleman took the red-kot poker from the firei
and was abota to knock the Plaintiff down. It
}eared, however, that the „constable of the parish'
happeqed to be of the parts', and he being a man of
ttte lad, caught the blow, declaring art he same time
be would not suffer such a wea;ott to be used, be-
cause it was not a Lufui way of knocking' a mall's

for this he demanded -dam Ages, not vindittive, but

BRITISH REVIEJF.

APIIITIONAL OBSEIMTV)NS ON THE 'AMERICAN

'TREATY, WITH SOME REMARKS ON MR. BARING7S
QsIFHL.ET j BEING A CoNTINUATIOI4 of THE LFT-
'IyIS OF DECIUS, TO WHICH 1i ADDED, AN
APPENDIX OF STATE PAPERS, INC.LUDING THE
TRELITY. BY THOMAS PEREGRINE COURTENAY,
ESQ.

We resume our Extraas from this Pamphlet,
which enters into a fuli investigation of the subject
of the Differances'between this. Country and Arne-
rica, an investigation founded on indisputable (Vs,
and supported by solid argiinient and fair deduoo4l.

It• will be seen that the famous pamphlet of
" 'War in Disguise" is brought forward in page

7, as the cause of Afv,-. Pitt's cietehitination to en-

'crease the vexations 41 America, and in page 7a,
as one of the means ea iployed to prepare the public
for then. ihe whole ',formation -of the purpose in
Mr.'l'itt's mind 'beingcjui,te Imaginary, it is fiery un-
important to inquire whether Mr. Stephen's pant
phet was its Cause or its o.,ffea. The shortest an-
swer, however) to these ingestions speculations upon'
the origin and tendency of this celebrated pam-
phlet, rests upon the fact--that '' War in Disguise"
was published in the 061ober of the same year, in
the June of which the,,Bssex had been condemned
on appeal.

But this -is unimportaii,t; not so is the charge
against Mr. Pitt, of hawing,- for -commercial pur7
poses, interfered %% it li the admlnistration ofjusticeiu
the Court of Pri'ze.

Mt. Baring is, in this instance, and indeed
throughout the w bile of his pamphlet;inclined to
give much. more -inipornoice to the complaints and
-the clamours of Mercantile bodies than either
be-
longed to them of right or was possessed in fad. -
That any commercial consideration influenced,
even indirectly, the decisiens of the COurt of Prize,
Mr. Baring will find, it much easier to assert than.
to prove; hut that Mr, Pitt interposed his influence
as a Minister, over the Judges of a Court of. Law,
is an imputation vihicli ought by no moans to have
been, hazarded. Witch Mr. Baring si)eaks of the
" comprehewiive Mina of Mr. Pitt," be carries
with him the sentiments of every reader of his
work ; but few indeed are .those who would-not
estimate
.higher even than his comprehensive
the 'inflexible -integrity of Mr. Pitt ;
.his utter ab-
horrence of injustice, or iniquity, and that loftitiess
of character which prompted him always to vindi-
cate his actions upon the motives whic s aduaily
produced them. He was accustomed to hold mea-
sures, he inherited the principle of doing what he
thought right, in spite of opposition or clamour.—
Had he determined,- therefore, to recall the indul-
gentles afforded to the Neutrals, he would have fol-
lowed his course it the preceding war, he would
have varied the instruct-Akins to cruizers; he would
base boldly altered the law, not wrested it to his
purpose, and he would have justified his meascires
in the, lace of his Country and the wo.-Id.
Had Mr. Baring sat in Parliament with Mr. Pitt,
I feel,convinced that he would never have thus
asrrsed his character. Sir Francis Baring was, al-
was s I believe, a political ovonent of Mt. Pitt ; to
however, 1 would -appe-a-V-contidently on the
improb,bility of his son's charge. Sir Francis dif.-
fered from Mr. Pitt upon most essential points ; and
thought him, perhaps, in many, fundamentally
wrong, but never; I venture to assert, did he trace.

ii his measures the species of failing which Mr.
Baring has now discovered I
Let Mr. Baring imagine to himself; his respeaed
father accused tit unfairness in .his dealings, and he
may form an idea of tile virtuous indignation with
which Mr. Pitt, if happily sutviving, would have
repelled his injurious aspersions.
Another class of misrepresentations still remains.
They relate to the former praCtice in regard to the
rule of 1756. " When the principle of i 756. was
established, the language of Lord Chatham was as
bold as the measure itself; and Sir Joseph Yorke,
instepp of searching for a justification of the writers
on the Law of Nations, ft-ankly told the Dutch,
" that his" Majesty could ncit otherwise get out of
the war with safety." Hail Mr. Barii:g proceeded
a little further in his examination of the memorial
to which he alludes, he would have found a direct
appeal not only to the justice of the British claims,
but to the former praCiice of the Dutch themselves.

incorrect is Mr,. Barring's statement of
the pri,cee6ings respecting this Jule in the last war ;
and here he is again inconsistent with himself.
" First," he says, "it wos voluntarily abandoned
Secondly, compensation' va as afterwards made for
the con equences of its tern porary execution, by an
as which stigmatizes that execution as illegal."
Now, .what was voluntarily b'andoned ? Tor( w hat
was compensation made ? :For the capture under the
rule of 1766 ? Not so, if we lre to believe 'Mr. Ba-
ring, who IGHS us that the Conarnissioners appointed
for this purpose " a arded large sums to the claim-
atits for losses sustained print ipally,- it not wholly,
from the execution of the instr action of 6th Norent-
ber, 1703," which instrudicm he Las told us just
,before, to some reipeas, " exceeded the rigour of
tole of t7.sti. 'there wa sno attempt to detet-
mine to what extent the neu' gal had a trade with the
enemy's colonies before the 1. var, but the whole was
devoted to condemnation."

Even, therefore, if we th row aside, as Mr. Baring
does, the consideration tha i the majority of the Com-
missioners 'were Americans, we shall be satisfied,
notwithstanding, that it %.cas not for the execution of
the rule of t 7.s6'that con tpensation was awarded by
the treaty.' of 17941..

Neither, then, if type attend to Mr. Baring, was
it the rule of 1756 that we " volunta,ily abandon-
ed" in January 1794, when so much, of the instruc-
tions of the precedi'„Jg year was revoked, as pre-
,.vented the importa4on of colonial produce into the
United States indulgence," granted," accord-
' in to Lord Gren.iille, who was Secretary of State
at the titne, " (in account of the peculiarity of their
local situation."l

th,refore, the opinion of Mr. Baring be
an,tl the order of 1793 allowed to be con-
si,ie nt witl.l the rule of 175L$, we have Lord Gren-
viL/e's aut./lurk) for styling the 0rder.01.1794, -not

l tin abandonment of that rule, but a mere temporary
relaxation of its exercise.
The third allegation upon which Mr, Baritig
founds his assertion of the uniform abandonment of
the rule of 1756, relates • 'to 'the convention with
'- itiiscia, negociated by Lord St. 1801.—
" In this Treaty," says .Mr. Baring, not only the
rule of the war dt 1756 is not recognised, but the
right of the neutrals to trade with the colonies of
our enemies, and from his own country in the pro-
duce of those colonies to-the mother country is eX.-
pressly stipulated." And again,. " a formal Treaty
with a friendly power, established 'principles
ly opposed to_it,"
Now let us examine the correatiess of these 're=
preSentations. What- is, the stipulation between us
and. Russia ? Is there indeed an express recogni-
tion of the right; even of Russian subjects, to trade
with the colonies of our enemy
- It is hardly necessary to observe that the COnven-
tion of 1801 -was occasioned by the second of those
Treaties which are commonly known by the name
iof the Armed Neutralities. Its object was to adjust
between Russia and Great Britain the point's of dif7
ference expressed in those Treaties. The rule Of
1756 had not been adverted to by the Northern
Powers, either in 1780 or in 1800. The question,
probably, had never arisen bet Ween Great Britain
and Russia. It was not, therefore; among the sub:-
jeCts of discussion at`it. Petersburgh. The leading
principle of the armed neutralities, (familiarly known
by the 'expresion " free ships, free goods") implied;
that the property of ari enemy in the ship of a friend;
was not liable to confiscation. In the Convention
OflBo t there is an express renunciation of this prin-
ciple, and to the paragraph asserting the contra,ry,
a clause is added which declares, that hostile pro-
duce acquired by a neutral, and transported on hid
account, is not ,0 be considered as enemy's pro-
perty.

Without being mcquainted with the history of
this clause, it is. not easy ,to ascertain precisely .the
purpose which it was intended to answer. I ap-
prehend that, independently of this stipulation, the
goods described in it would not have been consider-
ed as belonging to an enemy. But as questions of
property are among the roost frequent atad difficult
whkh arise in prize causes, and colourable transfers.
of hostile property- to neutrals are-.notoriously fre-
quent, cases may possibly have occurred m which
the-proof of the transfer being deficient, really neu-
tral cargoes have been condemned. And - the new
clause may have been conceived by the gussians, to
afford some'seenrity against .such condemnations,:---
In this view; the clause appears to have-bee nuga-
tory:

But whatever else might have been the occasion
or intent of the clause., no recognition of the colonial
mde, nor indeed any allusion toit whatever, was
in the, contemplation'of those who framed it. That
such vecognition, however, would be its etiea,
apprehended in this country soon after the arrival of
the Treaty, and a separate article was therefOre
ded, in plain terms forbidding the dire& trade with
the colonies of an enemy.

I have thought it necessary to give this history of
the transaalcm, because I am unable to, discover
whether it is In the original clause, or in the expla-:
nation, that Mr. Burin finds his " principks di-
redly opposed tc, the role of P 756," or his." express
stipulation" of I- he freedom of the neutral_ trade
Iv all rii),(llC COIVITy,

' Some of Mr. Aaring's expressions would incline
me to think, that he refers to the original clause,
and is unacquaintea. with the explanatory declara,
tion. But this can lia;dly be, becallse if he had any
right.at all to rely upoi? the general expressions of
that clause, he would have rejeiled the distindion
between the direci and the circuitous trade. If the
clause referred at all to the colonial trade (which it
certainly did notj it absolutely legalized it in all its
branches.

Is it then Upon the two paper together that Mr:
Baring relies ? The declaration provides that ,nothing
in the former article contained, shod authorize the
direct trade between the hostile colony, anl mother
country. Now, from this prohibition of the direct
trade, an allowance of the indired traffic might-
wkthout extravagance be. implied; but it is surely
not only inaccurate but unfair, to designate tbese
words as an express stipulation in favour of the cir-'
cuitous commerce.

But, the sequel of the declaration puts the matter
out of doubt.

Russia shall " enjoy the same advantages and faci-
lities," and of course be subject to the same restric-
tions " in this commerce, as are enjoyed 1-q the
most favoured nations, andespecially by the United
States of America.",

The erfeet then of this Treaty, so far from "esta-
blishing, principles dirthly opposed to the rule of
1756,"—is merely to put the question as it 'regards
Ruc..ia precisely on, the same footing on which it
stands with America ; and we come back exa&ly to
the point from which we departed, namely—" What
is a dire& trade ?"

I should here 'observe, Sir, that Mr. Baring also
endeavours to bring forward the Treaty of 1794, in
aid of his assertion of the abandonment of -the role
of 1156, though he judiciously omits it in summing
up his proofs. "In 'November, 1704, an attempt
Was made by Treaty to introduce a modification of
the rule in question, by stipulating in the
.12411
article, that America should not export to Europe
articles the produce`of the West Indies, by which
her trade.with all the European colonies would have
been confined to the extent of her own con,uniption.
This article was rejeaed on the other side, and that
rejeelon assented to by the ratification of Great.Bri7
tan)."

(To be continued.)

Tuesday evening a servant of one of the Of.cers of
the Guards, lying in Deal an-racks, undertook for a
considerable wager to place 100 stones at a yard dis-
tance each, and to take them up separately in his
mouth and droP them in a basket in the spate of 60
minutes, which arduous task he performed with
ease two minutes .and six -seconds within the time
allowed, it being a distance of five miles three quar-
ters and some yards.
