a new lesson on the Politics of Europe!

To favour the projet to which w,e have alluded,
BONAPARTE trusts that he has obtained the friend-
ship, certainly the Neutrality of the 'Courts of.
Petersburg,' and of Berlin—that they will be quiet,
perhaps glad speftator3 of all his proceedings—The

Indemnities were carved out as gulch with a view

to conciliate and. gratify them, as to humble and
'WeitittPtti'e House of ilitstria, our Natural
Perhaps he is not altogether • mistaken. The
EMPEROR -of RIT3SIA, we well remember, published
a !Manifesto in which he engaged to reinstate the
KrNf; of iu;.
,Dominions.—We see
Pied:iont guietly annexed. to France, and ive•da not
exl,e6l to hear of arc vt.ry spirited remonstrance

frthn M. Mmtcorr to -the First Consul, in con.

sequence of this proceeding,

Rumours have been spread of the First Consul's',
insisting -upon the alteration of our taws respelling

' the Press—of his requiring the removal of the
French Emigrants from our Territories, and of
other demands, the coealiance with which well@
be equally incompatible ,with the justice and honour
of our Country.-7-Aye %eve! belieyed.that, even it!,
the arrogance, and intoxication of 'P''Ower, such de-
mands could have been intended to be seriously in-
sisted uptin ; but there might be points made. for the
purpose of being yielded•to the success of others of
a more pradicable nature--they might be ques.
tions thrown out to amuse, while the real plan was
to proceed, with respeft to Other Nations, in the
system of interference and cOntroul, of fraternity
'and subjugation.
We are not without hopes that fair representa:.
~..tions and remonstrances may have an efrea—but we
ather hope than expe-S—and if circumstances rte.
,sessarily,lead even, the cruel alternative of War
with France, the known dispositions of His Ma-
jesty's Ministers furnish 'us with the best security
that ale War will 'be undertaken by the People or
Empire With rdour,..and persevered in
with firmness.--. We know that while real Peace was
to be maintained; consistently with-our own honour,
the objett of Ministers was •to adhere to it--but
•they will not suffer the COuntry- to be' Cc conquered
•itl Peace l"—they will not permit thernselves to bc
'deluded' by rhE `name, when they cannot obtain the
thing ; and:they Must know that the result even of
an unsuccessful War would not, in all probabilityi
be more fatal to us, than the completion of that
systern, on the part of, Fravce, of Which we have
spoken—which would endanger our dearest interests,
and perhaps our very existence itself.

Rear-Admiral LA cao sS 4 arrived here yesterday from
Marie-Galante. We paid to him the requisite honours, and
received him on shore with trumpets, music, illuminations
and serenades at night. Continual cries of Vive La—
crosse!" accompanied the Rear-Admiral in his progress.
He is generally beloved here, and he even regrets now that
bis Enemies, and those of the -Government have been ex-
pelled, or destroyed and defeated. If there is any thing to
blame in his condua, it is that he is too indulgent to Cri-
minals, and has too much confidence and goodness of cha-
racier.,

more particular account of his appearance here.

A Subscription has been set on foot by the Mer-
chants, Ship-owners, &c. at Hull, for the purpose
of establishing a Life-boat on the Lincolnshire
Coast.

On Monday and Tuesday se'nnight, the show of
tattle at Bedale (Yorkshire) Michaelmas Fair was
rather indifferent. Fat and middling cattle sold
Sheep went off at about 4.5. a head less than
14" Fair. At Malton Annual Fair last week,
cattle also sold well. Sheep, however, suffered
rather a decline in price.
At Knaresboruugh Fair, on Tuesday last, good
draught and saddle horses sold at unusually high
Prices---other cattle were slow of sale and tie
Prices declined.

di On
near the pump at the end of the Old
ailey, a number of idle people collated, to see if
any remains of a Suicide, who was buried there
some years since, could be seen..—A Gentleman en..
quiring what was the matter, was aroused for a
few minutes by three smart young fellows, but he
had hardly gone a hundred yards when he missed
his pocket-book, containing 61. in Bank Notes.
Returning to the spot, he found his obliging friends
gone.
One of the Dover Innkeepers, lately complain-
ing to a French Gentleman, that his house was
greatly infested with rats, and that he, would wil-
lingly give a considerable sum to get rid of them,
Was, on the following morning (and after the
Frenchman had received his bill) accosted by
him, " Sure, I shall tell you vich way you shall
get rid of de rat."—,, I will he obliged very much
to you, if you can," replied the Landlord. ,1 Veil
den, only charge de rat as you charge me, and I
vill be d---d if de rat ever come. to your • house
again."
A fire lately broke out at the Theatre at Stutt.
