COUNT BANIANIO.

In consequence of a paragraph, copied into
THE SUN of yesterday from the Cheltenham Chro-
nicle, the following letter, in justification of the
accused person, has been sent to us, evidently un
dcr his authority. Without knowing any more
of the.transactiOns alluded to than appears on tho
face of the charge and the Tefutatiqq, a sense of
j►►stice impels us to give the same publicity to the
Count's statement which we gave to the original
attack upon his character, and we earnestly le-,
commend it to all the Conductors of Journals who
have copied the article, either from the'Clielteiri
ham Paper or THE Sun, to afford the sainefacilitY
to the party who, feels aggrieved, by the insertio.A
of ;he letter si4ned ARISTIDES.

MR. EDITOR.
The Engllsle governmeut is inacceseible to thf
calumniate% the instant he is known to be such,
aniperfidious and cowardly detraction loses
sting. The Ministers of the' Government are
just, the English. laws 'lmpartial : they punistL
with one hand the culpable, •blit Protect with tlje
other the injured and uppreSsed.
The c'hette3ham Chronicle has published a era',
libel against the Count Banianio. The Cottot:
Banianio has never been arrested, neither. in Low
doe nor in .any part of the United Kingdom, Ili
the order of a Governoient too Mist and too impel—,
tial to act en the instigations•of the base and Ins-
levolent ; a Government that denounces only theoa'e n der.
For Many centuries since the name of Banixeio
bes.heen, known • it has e:;.isted only with 3010.7
pourable generation.
The Count has. been a soldier, it is true ; be 11"
never attempted to disguise the
.fact since
orri via in England ; twenty-two honourable woulu!s
have marked his profession. The Count. saw big.
a-it:wry involved in distensions, he would have
stored it to its ancient union, strength atilt
dour in Enrope, but the Count has never serve',
any Power or Potentate in ,the universe, and
instant he lost the hope of being useful to bi.;
country, he sought retirement in the bosom of:0;1.
family.
For 14 years has the Count witlistood•the temrtfr.
tions, and even menaces used to prevail on him to tic;
cept either command, situation, or titles. The Cool'
those held by his illustrious family with the W'.
difference and dignity of philosophy. His miiittiO,
career was of short duration, but honourable
his campaign commenced iu March, 1799,
finished in the mouth of August, in the same yeere
all the world know that Napoleon Buonapo'
was then in Egypt, and that General 1110r°
commanded in holy.
The Count ten months ago lost in Germ°.
the documents which establish the fact of
being tike Son of an English Lady of the 'O,
wily of Strickland, bid happily they are recut
vcred, and in his possession ; I have now se
be
them at the hotel where he resides ; they are ti,ie
most authentic,_ and are not his only honoura
testimonials. t't
Where, then, is the subject of astorriSotlef
that Mr. B-- paid his attentions to a foreig
of honour and distinction and that the

to .
• 'el y person that, under existing circnnotances,
they are extremely liberal and favourable to Den-
tuark. Incensed as every man of honourable mind
and inorttl principles must have been against the
ruisguided Cabinet of that country,it will yet, upon
teacction, be a source of giatification that no se.

'domm. We confess our frindictiiic feelings sere so
0 stronnly excited by the turpitude of the-poliq
pursued. by the Danish Government, that wepould
not help wishing it to be visited with adequate
punishment. :But vindictive feelings spun give Way
to a better tone of mind, anal if their indulgence is
-at all unbecoming in individuals, how much less are
theyworthy of great nations. We rejoice, therefore,
that nobler sentiments have prevailed, and that a
Peace has been accorded to Denmark glor;ous for
Britain to bestow, and, honourable for Denmark
to accept. Politically speaking, this treaty must
be most advantageous to the Allied Cause. It
exhibits them in
,the light of moderate Con-

querors, the same after victory as on the march
towards it, exacting nothing in the hoot of dis-
tress which they had not laid down as the basis of
their claim in the hour of balanced fortune. Such
Conduct is the best mode of refuting tZle false-
hoods of the enemy abroad, and tke calumnies of
our Patriots at home. Holland has afforded the
example of a Revolution without retributive (Hs..
tributions of property, and without bloodshed)
Denmark has added to this the example of
an -inimical country received, without the im-
position of degrading conditions, into the
peaceful bosom of European Alliance. , Neither
of these will, we trust, be lost upon the people
of France, who may now see their way to the re-
establishment of a legitimate Government, with-
out' passing through the horrors of anarchy and
civil war, and their restoration to the bonds of so-
cial union and peace, not only without loss of
fame, but with augmented lustre and glory to the
name of France.-

The choice,•thank Heaven, will 'speedily be in
their power. The Royal BOURBONS will afford
them the. :opportunity of electing a King, or ad-
hering to a, Counterfeit. We will then see how
the Trench nation are affected. We will see whe-
ther they are so immovably attached to the Usurper
as to 'be deserving of a share in the misfortunes
which his ambition has brought down upon their
. -
country, or •whethetr they are only anxious to
throw off the horrid yoke which has so long op-
pressed them.

It is said that the Son of the CROWN PRINCE is
to be created " Prince of Norway," and that
other marks of grace and favour would be granted
to the Norwegians jn order to attach them more
strongly to their new Government. The 10,000
Danes at Rendsburg will immediately join their
late adversaries, when the CnowNr .PitlxcE will
have an Army of 120,000 men under his command,
viz. 25,000 Prussians, 3.;,000 Russians, 20,000
Swedes, 10,000 Saxons, 10,000 Danes, 15,000 of
WALMODEN'S COrpS, and 5000 of SCHILL'S, TET-
TENBORN'S, aid LuTzow's Hanseatic Legions.—
This fine force has already been put in motion ;
85,000, it is expected, will proceed to the Lower
Rhine, and advance into France on the left of
BL'ITCHER'S army, leaving General BENNIGZEN,
with 30,000 men to besiege Hatnburgh, and 5000
to -blockade. Harbutg.
Count WALMODEnOCS to Hanover and Bruns-
wick, to complete the. levies there. TETTENBORN
-is to cross the Elbe at Gluckstadt. The Swedish
army is to assemble on the Weser, at Minden,' and
thence to proceed to Dusseldorf. The Mecklen-
burg corps' follows the Swedish army. As soon
as Count STROGONOPF is relieved at Harburg by
the Russian Garman legion, be is to march to the
'Rhine, and join WINZINGREODE. Count WORON-
ZOW is to march by Bremen and Munster'w ith the
same direction. The Saxon armywill follow the Rus-
sians. The Danes are to march to Bremen. The corps
of LUTZOW to accompany Wonolizow ; the Han-
seatic legion anti corps of Sc ILL to form the rear-
guard of the army. By this arrangenient, the
Prussian army, Under BuLow, will form the right;
the Russians, under WINZINGERODE, the centre ;
the Swedes the left ; and the Saxons are to be
the reserve of the centre. The mediation with
the Allies will 'not, we presume, be a Work of
great lepgth or ,difficulty. Mr. THORNTON and
BaiOIIWETTERSTEDT were about to set off for
Frankfort with this object When the advices came

away.

Of the rapid and victorious march of the Allies
into the heart of France, Saud of the inability of
the Corsican' to offer them any effectual resist-
ance, we need only repeat the names of the
places mentioned•. by Lord CATHCART and Sir
CHARLES STEWART, as those either where the
allies are, or which they are about to occu-
py. These are Lyons, Dijon, and Metz in
reversion ; -Worms, Spires, Sarlouis, Sarbruck,
Trber, Langres, &c. in possession ; and Befort,
nd Besancon, 'and Mentz closely blockaded.
And at this stage of the war the invincible Buo-
NAPARTE is about to assemble a grand army at
Chalons.—So he said of Langres ; but his power
is no longer equal to his will.
There seems to have been some severe fighting
e 4 the chain of the Vusges inpuutains. The dc-

tails ofoff Meat of the tnetty ty .6yiterai
have not been received-; neither have
Wd any further detaili of the successes of GC-
nerals‘SAcKEN, LANGEttoN, and PLATOFF. The
lather with his cossacks are far i t advance. The
former have been clearing the only positions to-
wards tite• Sare, where the enemy can make a
stand in defence of Paris on the. south side of the
River Marne.

The deseription of the AlNeil Armies is such".as
to warrant our pres►►min without doubt,on their
ultimate deliverance of Fiance from Tyranny
and happy settleinent of Europe, and on such
prospects we most heartily congratulate our
country.

The utmost cordiality and concert continues to
subsist amdng the Allied Sovereigns.

Our Port Letters arrived so late, that we can
only notice, that the Essex American frigate has
arrived at Boston•, the President, Macedonian,
and United States have sailed on a cruize.—
Two French frigates were off Santa Cruz 00 the
9th and, 18th' December, and are pursued by the
Ciane, Astrea, and Creole.

A measure, says a Morning Paper, highly in-
teresting to the future
,welfare of England, and
to the permanence of the present dynasty, is, we
understand, determined on. ".:.\.wither has public
rumour been erroneous in its designation of the
person who is to posseSS the high honour ofa ma-
trimonial connection with the reigning; family of
England., The Prince of the House oi3ORAN3E,
already identified with British feeling, by his re-
sidence and education among us, and a participator
in British glory, under the 11111SPiOUS WELLING-
TON, is, it is said, to be united vet more nearly
'to our interests, by leading 'our amiable Princess,
England's best hope, to the altar, some time in
the course of next spring.

Yesterday the CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER•
came to town from his house at Blackheath.

;Yesterday, at foar o'clOck, the
.Duke
.of Yonx
held his weekly Levee at his Office 'in the Horse
Guards. Among those present, and who had in-
terviews with his Royal Lliglane.ss,,were—
Lieutenant-General Sir Hugh,DalryMple, Major-Peneral
Stevenson, Major-General Haddon, Lieutenant-General Lord
Forbes, General Barelay, Lieutenant-General Lee, Lic',lt.-
General Dunn, Major-General Buller, the Earl of Albe-
marle, Lieutenant-General Chowue, and Dr. Thomas Unme,
Physician tothe Forces, ,on his being appointed to the Lon-
don District. _ _ _ . . . • . .

The Emperor of Russia, it is said, has sent his
bust as a present to the PRINCE REGENT; and
has expressed, in a letter to his Royal Highness,
his intention to pay a visit to this country as soon
as circumstances will permit hiM. His Imperial
Majesty will be received with great exultation in
England both by Prince and people. •
An evening paper says, " it is stated in some
well informed military circles, that the cavalry
regiment which exposed itself some time ago to
the marked animadversion of Lord WELLINGTON,
on account of plundering, has been brought under
the consideration of the PRINCE REGENT by the
Commander in Chief, and that his Royal High-
ness has directed the arrest of progressive rank
in the regiment for three years. Several Officers
in consequence tendered their resignations, which
have been refused."
By the latest returns it appears, that 8000 men
have already volunteered from the. Militia into the
Revilar Army.
Yesterday Sir A. COCHRANE left town for Ports-
mouth, in order to proceed, without delay, with
the squadron under his command, destined for
'the coast of America. The Admiral will be ac;-
companied byy-a Com Missioner, who is to be sta-
tioned on the Lakes, to superintend the naval
equipments in that quarter.
Mrs. SIDDONS, it seems, is going to gratify the
Gentlemen of the University of Oxford with Read-
ings from SHAKESPEAE and MILTON. The late-
Mr. SHERIDAN was the first who introduced re-
citations of this nature at the same place, with
great, success, but the treat must be of a higher
description when it comes* from the greatest ac-,
tress that probably ever appeared on any stage.—
We hope, however, that before she finally retires
from public life, we shall again • hear her Read-
ings in the Metropolis.
The new Opera announced at Covent-Garden
`Theatre, under the title of The Farmer's Wife, has
been ascribed to. several public writers, but the
prevailing rumour points at Mr. C. DIBDIN,
Mr. KEAN, who is engaged at Drnty4ane The-
atre, is the son of Mr. KEAN, who many years
ago was well known to the public for his talents
in mimicry.
