The expedatien of a Continental Alliance has
been received with universal satisfaftion. The mar.

row system of policy which was constantly recom.
mended by the Old Opposition during the late War,
and which seemed to be adopted by the Govern.
ment at the commencement of the present, is now

generally relinquished. The influence of Lord
GIitNVILLE and his friends has, it seems, induced

Mr. Fox to abandon a line of opposition which was

equally prejudicial to the interests of the Country,

and inconsistent with the extensive knowledge and

enlarged views of that experienced and enlightened
Statesman. •

We have before had occasion to notice, and we
do so again with pleasure, that the Morning Chro-
nicle has followed the example of its old Patrols, in
assimilating its Politics to those of :hits new Allies.'
We are therefore not at all inclined to be severe
upon the long, article which we observe in his Paper
of this morning, speculating upon the mode in which
the Powers of Europe, and the EMPEROR of RUSSIA
in particular, are to carry on the War against France.
It must, however, be allowed,that such speculation
can answer no good purple ; it would be obvioUsly
Wrong,and might indeed be eventually in were
the Writers on our side of the question twansvver in
detail the misapprehensions which an Opposition
Writer may be under as to the intentions of 'oor
Government or Allies. It is, therefore, perhaps,
hardly fair in an advocate for one side of a question
to urge so much when the lips of his opponent are
sealed. However this may be, we will not even
incur, the possibility of the smallest injury to a cause
which we.have so much at heart, by indulginithe tiro.

But we are asked, " have Ministers any thing
like an Army of eo,ooo men ?" Something, we
answer, very like it indeed ; besides Cavalry and
Artillery (especially the former, the Regitnents

Armies. •

We,wonder that it never occurred to the Editor
of the Morning Chronicle that, in the present 'state
of things, Colonial Expeditions must depend princi.
