Now that .the hopes of Peace are for the prefent
at an end, Minifters have refolved to take the fenfe
of the country on their conduel. His Majefly's plea.
fare has been taken on the mature, and it is refolved
that the prefent Parliament &all be diffolved imme.
diately. The new writs will be Mud about the sad
inflame.
There can be no doubt that the country will ap-
prove of the condo& of Minifters in terminating a,
aegociatioa carried on by France only for the purpofe
of deception, and as a mean for the accomplifiantent
of her own ambitious views.
We as happy to find that the Country is Coon to
be gratified with a Dsc AAAAA toe, on the part of
Government, of the grounds and motives upon which
the late Negociation with the French Cabinet was
entered into, carried oa, and broken off. It is likely"
that this proceeding will be followed up by a more
minute and detailed F xpefe of the particolars which
occurred during the cour(e of Negociation, and that
the Declaration, which is expelled to ►eft upon the
• molt triumphant grounds, will be forthwith laid before
the Public.

Ifefierday evening one of the hottel preffes for
fealties ever known tool place on the River and in the
neighbourhood. Two receiving flips came op 'break
of the Tower. Every thing (lows that the aloft ea-
tenfive and energetic fyliem of operations will be car-
ried on, fince the enemy have left us no alternative but
a vigorous profecution of the war,

EAMBURGH MAIL AND DUTCH PAPERS.
The Hamburgh Mails due yellerday, arrived this
morning. Dutch journals to the icth inftant, and
Paris papers to the loth, have afro been received.
The contents of there papers confirm the fufpicion
we entertained, that there was no truth in the report
of the Pruffian and French armies having had an en-
gagement.
The movements among the troops, and changes of
pofition are almoft inceffant, but the contending ar-
mica have not yet come into coated. They are, how-
ever, in fuch pnfitions that if an adjaftment does'not
take place very fpeedily, it will be impoifible to avoid
hofiilities. The country where they are cannot Cup-
pott them long, and they bate been affembled with'
fo much haße that it is not thought either of them
have ruch magazine., provided as to admit of pro-
craftination in their mcafures.
The Ruffians are advancing by forced marches to
reach the kene of action—and Auftria rams to be
preparing for the poffible event of being called into
the field.
Both the Eu and the Archduke CHaatss
have left Vienna for Aufbia, under pretence of exa-
mining
the plan of a fortification at Enos, not a Rose
of which is yet laid, or even the ground marked oat,
and which is to take up full five years in the conftruc-
tion. The real objett of his Majelly's journey is not
of this trifling nature. The faft is, he is gone to vifit
his army ; and the advantages of his prefence, in
cafe be fhould take a part in the war, would be im,
mediately felt through the whole line of operation.
The French, it appears, have no intention of sir-
in up Brannan. On the contrary, they aft as if
they were in hourly expectation of its being befieged.
—They have clofed the gates againft all travellers ;
&ad thole who have occafion to pars into Auftria are
obliged to take another route. Sorely all this furpi-
cion is sot directed again!! Pruffia, who has not a
Bogle battalion within fiaty leagues of that form&
The truth is, that they are afraid of an attempt by
the Anarians to carry it by a mat& mass j an appre-
benfioa neither very idle nor groundlers.
Notwithfianding the feemingly decifive eharaßer
of the movements of France and Pruffia, it is fill
poffible the latter may tenaporife; and, by the fame
thort-fighted policy by which it has already brought
Europe into a molt deplorable (late, feal its own
doom by patching up a peace. It will be feen, by the
fubjoined letters from Hamburgh, that there are ru-
mours of an approaching interview between NAPO-
ILIION and FIIIDIAICA WILLIAM. Should filch an
event take place, we fear it will prove a fatal meet-
ing for Pruifia and for Europe.

We have been in expalation for thefe two days
