ASCHAPTENBEttG, SEPTEMBER 17.

It appears certain that Marshal Lasnes has gone to
meet his Majesty the Emperor of Russia, in order to
receive his Majesty on the confines of his empire, and
conduct him to Erfurth, where the two Emperors of
France and Russia are to have a meeting. All the
Princes composing the Confederation of the Rhine are,
it is said, making great preparations to set out for
Erfurth, where, it is supposed, his Majesty the Em•
peror of the French will spend some days. Already
500 men of the French Imperial guards arrived at
Menu on the 14th inst. having been torwarded in
carriages. These troops, who always accompany
their Sovereign, have given the inhabitants of the
Department hopes that they will soon enjoy the pre-
sence of his Majesty.

In the preceding columns we have given large ex-
tracts from the Dutch Journals mentioned in our last,
which come down to the 26th tilt. and contain Paris
news to the 19th inclusive.
The address voted by the Senate in their sitting of
the sth, when the singular Reports of the Minister
were laid before them, w.,s not presented to Napo-'
LEON at St. Cloud till the 12th. They tell him that
they have unanimously adopted the SenatusConsultum
he had pmposed ! It would indeed have been singe.
lar had there been a dissentient voice in the present
circumstances of the French people.—lt cannot
how-
ever be credited, even by NAPOLEON himself, that the
members were uttering their own cordial, undisguised
sentiments, when, in the sante address, they are found
asserting—or rather acquiescing in the assertion—
that, " Me war with Spain is f olil c, just, and oat:-
saryt!" ;
Nothing can be more detestable than the language
of submission which they hold. They will cheerfully
support whatever measure NitecasoN may resolve in
his wisdom and ambition to pursue ; and will cheer-
fully devote the blood of their fellow-citizens to his
Impeiial pleasure. This, in plain English, is the
langtnlke of their Address. It points pretty clearly
to a war with Austria—for the 80,000 men, of the
Conscription for 1810, are not to be called forth
fore the Ist of January, unless another Power should
he at war with France.

This Address, indeed the whole of the preliminlry
Reports of his Ministers, given in a former SrAa,
betrays the deep mortification which NAPoLeow
feels at the state of affairs in Spain. The Address

of MAntenipo to the Junta of liseay (for the
farce of constituting Franco-Spanish Juntas is still
caned on) wears the same livery. ' !But nothing
can give a more striking display of the frantic rage
with which the patriotism and loyalty of the Spanish
14atiatt has fired the soul of his Royal and Imperial
Majesty, than the speech he made to his soldiers on
the Parade at Paris, on the 18th or 19th ult. and of
which the substance is given in the Moniteur of the
20th.

In this speech he informs them, for their comfort
and consolation, that " their labours in the field of
glory are by no means terminated. Hitherto he
had led them to triumphs through Austria, Prus_
▪ sia, Poland, &c. ; but now they will have the felicity
to traverse France, cross the Pyrenees, rescue Spain
Id from the pollution of the English, and take a dread-
• fiti vengeance on the Spaniards for their rebellion! I
aa The glory of the Imperial standards has for a mo-
ment been tarnis;aed, their fcrmcr lusture will be
s, speedily restored, and the lingli h Leopards be
devoured by the Eagles of Prance !"
