them in rapid succession to the mingled cries of
Vivent les Anglais, and Viva Empereur, their
bands playing alternately the National Anthem
of England, and that plaintive but inospiriting air,
composed by the EMPEROR'S mother, the beauti-
ful Queen HORTENSE, Partant pour la Syrie, the
sound of which is not inappropriately audible,
now that the lawless aspirant for the seizure of
Palestine is about to be opposed by the military
and maritime power of the Anglo-French Expe-
dition.

Another and a scarcely less remarkable token
of the perfect cordiality of this noble al-
liance between France and England has only
just now been manifested. Allusion is made,
of course, to the decision arrived at, that
the united navies in the Black Sea shall
be placed under the supreme command of the
English Admiral—the French Admiral, HAMELIN,
being replaced by one of less eminent rank, in
order to allow of this arrangement. While the
united armies despatched to the seat of war are
to be placed under the supreme authority of the
Marshal ST. ARNAUD, the French Commander-
in-Chief. Division of Council will, by the adop-
tion of this plan, be avoided. -Unity of action
by sea and land will be ensured—and while this
advantage is secured to the cause of the allies of
Turkey during the course of the campaign—a
magnanimous tribute is offered respectively by
France and England to their relative pre-
dominance. The greatest maritime and the
greatest military nation on the earth, yield.
ing to each other the undisputed title of
command on that element on which their
chief glories have been won ! So that the navy
which has hitherto vanquished all others against
which she has been opposed, obtains, as was only
reasonable, the precedence ! While the same grace
is at once very naturally accorded to the army
which has proved victorious alike in Europe, in
Asia, and in Africa, overrunning in its triumphant
course all the chief states of the former continent,
taking almost everyone of its great capitals, Vienna,
Berlin, Lisbon, Madrid, Milan, Rome, Naples,
Warsaw, and Moscow, and being only conquered
at last after all these amazing victories when the
earth had risen " from the Tanais to the Thames,"
and Europe in arms appeared at the gates of Paris
to avenge itself on the Revolution, and to over-
throw, in the person of NAPOLEON, its Imperial
representative.
&gland at the head of the navies, and France
at the head of the armies, of the Expedition—
Western Europe may, with a humble reliance on
the aid of GOD, rest confident in the issue of the
struggle proving the defeat of Barbarism, and the
triumph of the interests of Civilisation.
