that if his Trassian Majesty shoitld, in the present '
contest, join the Allied Powers, he will no longer be
an objet of their praise. But the great cause of
their distress (and we trust it will be a lasting one),
is the continuance— of the present ,Administration
in office ; and indeed so great is their anger
upon this occasion, that-it- seems a-little to have im-
, paired their judgment. After announcing a few days
ago, in the most pompous terms, the Coalition of
the Powers on the'Continent with Great Britain, for
the purpose of restoring the Independence of Europe,
the leading Opposition Paper of this, day says,
But, in the name of common sense and of
British patriotism, let us not in;such a moment have.
a Ministry whoM every Potentate in Enrope dis
trusts."

We suspea that the word British in the above
quotation was inserted by mistake ; but such absurd
inconsistency is more calculated to excite pity than
to require serious refutation.

The Public have been for several days kept in
doubt by the Opposition Writers, Whether a Dis-
solution of Parliament was likely to take place wr
not. This day, however, the chief Print of the:Party
has set', the matter to rest in the following words
" We dare and defy him (Mr. PITT) to diriSOlVe.lhe
Parliament." The Minister, of course, will not
venture ,to oppose such a dreadful denunciat:on from'.
an Qppnsitinn Print. For ourselves we, eau only
say, we have reason to believe that there has not
been any change of intention on the part of Govern-.
inent.

By a Gentleinan who arrived some days since from
. ,„
HanoVer, we learn that an opinion prevailed aMong:,
the French troops that they were about to evacuate
the TAeCtorate, and every article worth removal that
had escaped former requisitiens had been plundered
by the departing soldiery. This predatory system
had not, however, been confined to the subaltern
members of the army; the Officers _debased them-
selves by the most paltry thefts ; and even Madame
BURTiIIt:E., the. General's wife, stripped the apart-
ments of the Palace in Which she was lodged of
their window curtains, ,and some old hangings which
had been left, the locks, bolts, and brass ornaments
of the doors, &c. The Palace of Herrenhausen .has,
been plundered in likemarmer,andeveti sotueleaden
figures and vases, which before had not been thought
deServing the charge of carriage •in removing from
the :gardens, and which, in fad, were worth no
more than the intrinsic value of the metal, have now
been carried oft. ri;he people of Hanover' hold the
French in eitreme;an4 merited hatred; among the,
order of females, however, the troops have
foetid• numerous followers.
Letters from the llavannah announce the -Suppres,
Sion of numerous Monastic and Religious Orders in that
Island, and that all the similar Establishments in the
Spanish Trans-Atiantie Dominions were to expe-
rience a like fate; The immediate cause of thiS ex-
traordinary u:aSure arises from the poverty of the
Government, which has driven it to this expedient
to raise a present supply : the consequences of it,
however, cannot be anticipated. The Royal Order
'under which the sequtestratiotts in Cuba have been
levied, direfted that all property belonging to Reli-
gious Establishments, consisting, of houses and lands,
sugar or coffee plantations, and negroes, as also all
mortgages, debts, &c. due to them, should be sold,
, gild that the monies arising -from such sales should
he paid into the treasury of the KING, who will make
provision, by daily allowance or otherwise, for
the persons so dispossessed. , The property. thtiS
seized is to a very large amount.--The Bishop of
fiAvANNAn is one of the Commissioners for exeent-
Mg this order ; the others are the Governor, the In-
tendant-General, the colle4tor of the Customs, and
Don J. 13. MuNoz. •
