a most singular contradietion, and inveve whole
in a mystery which nothing but the arrival of the
Flamburgh Mails can solve.,.
If the statement of the Armistice is true, .tlieu
indeed the Emz.F.Roit of AUSTRIA must have uneon7
ditionally surrendered himself and his territories to
the mercy of a ferocious Conqueror, and havainadtv
up his mind to become a third" rate Power, or rather -
a mere nominal Sovereign; under the control and
superintendance of BONAPARTE. There is not any
official document, however, given in the Paris Pa- -
pens, which can in any degree prove that the Eisi-
EEROR of . RUSSIA had entered into any Treaty, or.
consented to any Armistice. The stipulation
,is:
merely
beWeen the. EMPE,RQR of AUSTRIA and 80..
NAPARTE, that the Russians shall evacuate the Terri-
, torie.s of the former within a given time. Will the
Russian Army form a junction with the Prus--,
sians, or will the KING of PRUSSIA attllally march
his Armies to attack the French ? These are guts-
tions which we confess ourselves unable to answer,
till we obtain some intelligence that may be depend=
ed upon from the North of Europe. Certainly if any
thing like a AusSian Army remains—if any thing
like spirit
pervades the Cabinet of Berliti—tbe cause
Etirop is not yet ItoptAuss•
The accounts brought by the French and Dutch
Papers are certainly highly distressing; at the same
time they
are not such as should create any de-
spondency, ,even if they are; .confirmed by official
accounts from the seat of War. Let us allow the
Russian Army to have been completely defeated,
and that an -Armistice 'has taken puce, leaving
BONAPARTE in ._possession of all:his conquests:
It 'is Atilt to be .recolleeled; that A hug
leen signed by Russia, Austria, and PrO°' by
which it •is covenanted, • that if reasonable terms
are not granted within a certain period, Prussia
woul4 join the Coalition. Suppose BoNArnapc
does not yield,—.SuppOse Prussia, seeing the wretClid
ed 'state of slavery to Which Europe Inost be re'
duced if BONAPARTE be allowed to
graceftil terms, shall ai with firmness and decision,
Surely there is still very fair ground to hope that the
indel*nd6ifec of Europe may still be.preserved, and
the Power of France nixie' consistent with the

Liberty and Security of other States.
