WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 1812.

We are enabled to state positively to our Readers,
that the pegociation for the introduction of the Mar-
quis WELLESLEY and Mr. CANNING into the Admi-
nistration has broken off. Lord LIVERPOOL has been
appointed First Loid of the Treasury,. and Mr.l74Ku
SIT.TART Chancellor of the Exchequer. The Office
of Secretary of State for the War and Colonies is
not yet filled up, btit it is generally believed that
Lord BATHURST Will be appointed.

We this day present our Readers with further
extracts from the French Papers. The war may
now be considered as commenced between Russia
and Fiance. BUONAPARTE,i on quilting Paris, an-
not_intl.l that it was his intention to review his army
on the Bank; of the Vistula.. The Monileur does

noi, incited, contain any violent inveaives against
the Emperor of RUSSIA, nor any of those boastful
threats which he threw out before the com-

mencement of the war against Austria in 1606,
or against Prussia ►n 1806. Indeed the uni-

form series of defeats which his arms have sus-

tained, when opposed to British troops, in the Pe-
ninsula, seems to have bad a wonderful effect in-
curing BUONAPARTR of the lofty and contemp-
tuous tone in which he used formerly to in-
dulge towards his adversaries. Bet though the
Alonite4r does not COotaip any abuse, or even any ,
declaration of hostility against the Emperor of
RUSSIA, the movemeoli. of the French troops are
sufficiently explicit.' All that part of the French
army that was stationed at Berlin, and in the vi-
cinity, has moved towards the Polish fron-
tiers. All the French Marshals, with the, excep-
tion only of SOULT 'and SUCHET, have joined
the Northern Army. Even MoRAT has set out
from Naples, (to wh:ch place we prediCt that
be never will return) for the same purpose.—
The Emperor of AUSTRIA iS to have an inter-
view, as we before stated, with BUONAPARTE, at
Dresden. The Einpre,s, of AUSTRIA and MARIA
LOUISAAViII accompany them. The Austrian troops
are in motion, but such is the general aversion
throughout the Austrian Empire to an alliance with,
France, I bat we do not suppose they will take a much
more active or effeClive part against Russia,,than the
Russians did against the Austrians in the campaign of
1809. Thecontest that is about to commence must be
dreadful and sabguinary ; it would be idle to specu-
late upon its probable result. We can only express
an ardent hope, that the man who has, by his, am-
bition, his perfidy, and his cruelty, covered Europe
with blood and misery, may br. frustrated in all the
plans which he has formed to extend and perpe-
tuate the wretchedness which he has created.
The Moniteur of Bth contains a translation of the
British declaration respeCting the repeal of the Or-
tiers in Council, upon any official notification of the
revocation of the Berlin and Milan Decrees. The
Pioniteur, according to its usual practice, annexes
notes to different passages. The question as to
:the public revocation of the Decrees is altogether
.evaded. Much comrnendat:ou is bestowed up-
on the reasoning of the American negociators, and
the decision of the AmeriCan Executive. It is re-
markable that the Moniteur retorts upon us the al-
ternative put in the Declaration, by Stating, that, as
the Berlin and , Milan Decrees were respeclively
acts of reprisal for Mr. Fox's Order of Blockade of
Ole Ludt of May, 1806, and the Orders in Council
of November, J 807 , they will, of course, tall to the
ground, if the Orders for which they were reprisals,
be repealed.
