The Vienna Gazette announces the death of
Baron HERBERT) the Austrian Ambassador at
Constantinople.

It has been announced in Sqx;tzerlagd, that all
the Swiss Officers who were formerly in the Pied-
miontese Service, are to receive their Pensions from
the French Government.

THE conclusion of a long and perilous war ; the
refleaions which have been cast on its oondud,
and the probable consequences attendant on its ter-
mination, have been so fully discussed, that we
should obtrude ourselves on the attention of our
readers, by any further animadversions, when a Ge-
neral Peace has sileneed the cavils of Opposition,
and produced a general joy throughout the Country.
Entertaining as we do, the most profound respet
for the. Government, by whose wisdom, ptudence,
and energy, the miseries of millions have been re-
lieved,- and the honour and independence 'of our.
Country secured, we feel it to be our duty, at this
time, to submit' a few observations to our leaders,
illustrative of the prinCiples on which their future
felicity depends.
We have terminated an unexampled War, with
unexampled glory. The mint belligerent nations
of Etirope combined to extinguish a system of moral
degradation, unprecedented in the annals of mankind.
Britain, after a mast dangerous moderation, was com-
pelled from a sense of public safety, to defend her
happy tranquillity, by engaging in the universal
cause of civilized nations: Without enlarging on a
topic familiar to the mind of every man, to whom
the mournful history of Europe for the last ten years
can oni excite amazement and resignation to the
will of Providence, we shall simply observe, that
the fiery ordeal' ofßevolution had long ago spent
itself ; that the energies of the late Administration
of Mr. PITT, had essentially contributed to accele-
rate its dtindion, and that the accession of the
FIRST CONSUL of Ftance, and his subsequent ad-'
ministration, had completely silenced that tremen-
dous discipline, which had threatened mankind
with unknown miseries, and society with unprece-
,
dented disorganization.

Under these circumstances, therefore, lia‘rfAlisi
as well as FRANCE, was prepared for Peace. The
• ,
former, as her chief motives, struggled, for Religion
and Mciral Order--The existing Government of
France' has justly, nobly, and prudently, restored
them.- Tie objeatherefoie of the War is attained.

Let us now divert our refitaions from the Con.
to the short examination (though we Might
occupy our Whole Paper on the subjea) of the ad.
vantages,.which Britain will derive from the termi.
•
nation of a contest, which she began on principle,
and terminated on principle combined with glory.

'l. By her Vrineipled and Religious Efforts, she
Iras'suCCeeded (thari,. through the inliuence of her
exertions)
in rooting up that rr4shapen and ohnoxi-
Oiis-Taii, which has E;eenswatered With the blood
of the Innocent, and whose shade covered the best
ProvinCes of Europe, with Wretchedness and despair.

2. She has restored the worship of the God of
. •
Truth, rooted from their dens the altars of Atheism,
and her 'stubliOrn military and political resis-
dive (amidit the—adventitious occurrences of !Inman
life), brought about an order of things on which
she can rely, to see Religion fostered, honoured,
and proteeted. •

3. She, has 'retained the lustre of her Constitution
of Government, the Indelendence of het People,

the Integrity Of her DoMinions, and' the 'respindent
Honour of her Name, undiminished, uninjured, and

even. feared. 1

time of peace could be of no ultimate consequence•to
•
our political or commercial interests. They must be
considered solely in the light of PR IVATIVES ; that
is, while in a state of war with France, they depri!eti,
her of great resources, but gave' to Britain, 'which.
rodetriumphantly on the Seas, a commercial prepon- •
derance in time of War; but which could not injure
