FRANKFORT, DEC. 9. 3. —Oar labours will be crowned with
entire success and Europe will find in them a new guarantee
(4. its tranquillity. The Decrees of the Diet of the 20th Sept.
are now in operation throughout all Germany, a:id their
favourabte effects begin already to be felt. The agitation has
sensibly diminished; the 'revidutioaists are checked, several

of them have even sought for refuge in foreign cowftries; the
loyal party again raises its head, and is enlarged by the ac-
cession of honeit weak men, who, until now, bad not ventur-
ed to'declare themselves. The first retrograde movement
againA revolutionary Oineiples has been fortunately and
pnw•erfnlly supported by the energetic measures of the Bri-i
tiA Parliament; and if the French •Government have the
wisdom to avail itself of these favourable conjunctures, to
adopt a course more Monarchieat, nothing can hereafter im-
pede the complete triumph of the cause of the friends of or-
der, at a time when, of all others, the intimate union existing

amongst the great powers renders all political complication
impossible.—This Circular is authentic.—(Gazette de Prance.)

Though we shall not imitate The Morning Chro-
nicle, by entering into frivolous controversies with
other Niters, the folly and bad taste of which has

exposed it to disgust as well as contempt, yet we
shall never pass over its insidious attempts to em-
barrass the Government of the Country. There
is this day in that mischievous Paper a long
article touching upon various points, and im-
pudently suggesting topics to Ministers which
are likely to be the first objects of their at-
tention, las soon as matters of mot e. imme-
diate interest will pennit.
offered,to GovernMent by that patriotic Journal, it
suggests the propriety of a reduction in tire army,
and an extinction of the office of .Commander-in-
Chief. It then revives a correspondence between
his present MAJESTY and his Royal Highness the
Duke of YORK, Wide!) hi, MAJESTY, trusting to
his own rectitude, ,and feeling the consciousness
of his own dignity and importance in the State,
listened perhaps too much,to bis-".earlytriends ;"
those. friends, who' were really Republicans, under
the pretended cover of WhigOstu, and so anxious
for Power, that 'hey were ready, to attain it by
any means which would degrade the Royal cha-
racter, and perplex the Government. But his
Majesty at, leogth.opened his eyes on their real
character and designs, -and very properly threw
tt)ein off, ti 4 we hope, never to re-admit
them into his confidence. It is not difficult to
detect the artifices these Republicans, through
the illedioin of their old channel, The Morning
Chronicle, for by its. infamous scurrility
agaiait the Sovereign of Spain. it attempts to in-
volve us in a quarrel with that Country, it pro-
poses a reduc:ion of our Army, that we may be
unprepared for hostilities. thif he not really
is purpose, it h-rs certainly- urged conn-
sels tending to produce such consequences.—
We are as adverse to large Standing Armies, as
The Chronicle; or any other adversaries, of Go-
verument;but in the present critical state of the
Continent, which is too much infected with Re-
poblican notions, we should be prepared for
events, and not cast aside those weapons which
luety be necessary for self-defence. The Country
has just recovered from a most alarming state,
arising, in a great degree, from the diffuSion
of those doctrines and principles which The Chro-
nicle, and other Jacobinical publications, have
supported, and which, in their nature, were
calculated to undermine every sense of loyalty and
attachment to the present form of our Government.
thedanger has been happily removed by wise legis-
lative enactments; but as wicked Writers are still
insidiously at wink to revive it, we • trust that,
Ministers Will riot proceed with is rash haste, hot
in due time vitry into cffert any retrenchments
that may be necessary to lessen the national bill -
tlo-ns, but not to impatr the National dignity and
protection.

Among the h i ors

we csunot hrlp concluding without adding our
surprize, that 'The Chronicle did not recommend a
reduction of our NavY, as well as of our ARMY,
that the Country might be txpnsed to foreign
invasion, as well as to insurrection at home.
