The 'Holy War is but beginning—Europe has
shake-,r her spear, and the pestilence has fled from bet
Pre'.ence--but it still exists ; it has taken refuge in
France, and it continues its ravages there.
The Allied Sovereigns must do more than they
profess in the Frankfort Declaration ere they can re
turn to their subjects, and claim the high remunera •
dna of permanent allegiance or even personal secu-
rity. They must 4, extirpate the Tyrant," and dis-

when he entered their territories in the boasted spirit
of conciliation and meekness ? Which of them will he
spare in the fullness of his anger ? Will he forget

tions of Austria, Bavaria, Saxony, Wartemburg, and
Baden, in bis utmost need ?—Will he content himself
in his next crusade with stripping his unhappy father,
in-law of his title of Emperor of GERMANY ? Or wilt
another daughter of Austria appetite his ravenous
appetite ? Impossible I He is at this nrcnnent shargert.
ing the knife as quickly as he can, with which to sa-
crifice theni to his revenge !

Again we say, if it be intended that Europe shall
enjoy A 44 long, repose," the war is only in its com-
mencenvent—the present Government of ,France must
be levelled to the ground—it is misery te. live under
it--it is unsafe to live near it. By merciless requi-
sitions it seizes upon the fruits of the labourer —by
cruel conscriptions it seizes upon the labourer him-
self, and makes him raise his arm indiscriminately
against every human being—oat the beck' f a :ferocious
usurper, and a bloodikirsty gang of thieves and as-
sassins, whozn he calls his ,Senatois.

Justice, humanity, policy demand that this syst em
(if such a monstrous assemblage of crimes can be so
called) should be put down. We are aware that lie
public law of nations furnishes but slender precedes its
for the vigorous line of policy now recommended ;'—
but we are also aware, that the history of rnanleind fu sq
nisbes no precedent of suck a monstrous conflagr s•
Lion as that which has issued from Revolutionary
France.
But we are prepared with analogies taketk front
the Civil and Municipal Law ;o rebut the objections
which casuists may take against owe doctrines. Ica.
the Pandects of Justinian, which with more or leis
amalgamations have been received as the bases of all
the Judicial Codes of Europe, there is an admirable
display of human wisdom.. There was a law of vici.
nage—an edict 61 de totneiaticli :sold elterit," which
did not leave a man perfectly master of his own
ground: He was bound to lay before his neighbour
a plan of any ihtended erections, that he might be
on his guard against any nuisance, and crush any
dangerous establishmeni in its infancy.
The question is thus ably argued by BORICI, in
his First Letter against ,a Regicide Peace ; •
" Such is the law of -civil vicinity. Now where
there is no constituted judge, a; between independent
states there is not, the vicinage itself is the natural
judge. It is, preventively, the assertor of its own
rights, or remedially, their avenger. Neighbours are
presumed to take cognizance of each others acts.—
' rtrini, virincorittn fada premmuntor mire.' This prin-
ciple Which, like the rest, is as true of nations, as of
individual men, has bestowed on the graid vicinage
of Europe, a duty to know, and a right to prevent,
.any capital innovation which may amount to the
erection of a dangerous nuisance. Of the importance
of that innovation, and the mischief of that nuisance
they are, to be sure, bound to judge not litigiously -
but it is in their competence to judge. They have
uniformly acted on this right. What in civil society
is a grind of action, in politick society is a ground
of war. But the exercise of that competent jut rEdic-
Lion is a matter of moral prudence. As suits its civil
society, so war in the political must ever be a matte:
of great deliberation. It is not. this or that partic-it:ar
proceeding, picked out here and there, as a sali)ect
of quarrel, that will do. There must be as ar: Lgatt.
of mischief. There must be marks of deliberation:
there must be traces of design ; there n.ust be in&
cations of malice ; there must be tokens of ambitior.
There must be force in the body where they eNiA.
there must be energy in the mind. When all
circumstances combine, or the important parts ot
them, the duty of the vicinity calls tor the ClCrc:3c r,:
its competence ; and the rules of prudence do n.
restrain, but demand it."

DkPARTURE OF LORD C44STLEREAGR.
As we stated yesterday, at die Cabinet Council
El lon Spin-fay, which rat till. half past six oict.ak,
the Noble Vise' tint's 'powers; instrnctiOns, ace. -were
fully and finally, agreed upon, and. werf afterwhi,ls
submitted to the Patna REOLNI, and Sect:iced ids
Royal Highness's sanction. • Ltircii CAsTLEREAGH
waited-upon the Patrice yesterday miming, and took
leave of his Royal Wittiness.. re *as also busily
engaged in the course .of the day with the Earl of LI
veiteoft, 13,rrocusr, and other of his colleagues,
and Mr. IHmascros, his T.Yn&T Secretary. The
Noble Viscount attended at his (Mice, and swore. in
Mr. WILLIAM Itrontsrosu, as a Special Messenger, to
attend his Lardahtp, 11, the room of Mr. BAsILICo,
resigned, who had filled that office above SO years.
At two o'clock• Mr. Ct'aVisOlt, the Messenger, w*.
sent off to smake preparations on the road. Dinner
was ordered for Viscount and Viscountess Casme.
AMOR at half pest three o'clock ; Mr. HAMILTON and-
a few select friends dined with them, but the ars.inete;
malts treeeSsary t., be made were so 'numerous and
important, that they were not in readiness till half-
past seven, when it was announce, to those who were
to ReCentpany and attend the Noble Viscount in his
mission ; consisting of the Viscountess, Lady EMMA
IdouNt. EDGIECIIMISE, as a companion to her Ladyship;
Alre. RoarNSON. her L4dyish,p's principal Waiting-
woman ; Mr. F. ROBINSON, and Mr. PLANTA, of the
Foreign Office, as Secretaries to tne Mission ; Mr.
LARD, it young Gentleman, a relative of Viscount
CAsTLEREAGH ; Mr. RICHMOND, the Noble Viscoinit's
Special Messenger ;* Mr. Run and Mr. WILLIAMS,
the King's Messengers ; Mr. KaousE, Messenger to
Nr. PLANTA. Four carriages were in readiness at the
dbor of the Noble Viscount's house, in King-street,
St. James's.
Viscount and Viscountess CAsTLEREAOII having
taken a very affectionate leave of their pi ivate friends,
who attended to Lid theni farewell, as weir as very
condescendingly of their domestics, the different par-
ties left the house and entered the carriages. The
Noble Viscount was received by a large concourse of
people assembled ca the occasion with unbounded
applause—hats off, huzzaing, clapping of hands, and
every demonstration of joy which the populace could
Stew. This demonstration of joy had nearly been
attended with very serious consequences : the shout-
ing of the people caused the horses in the second car-
riage to run away, but tLey were providentially
stopped by some of the spectators, at the risk of their
lives, just as the carriage was coming in contact with
a post turning towards Pall-mall.
Viscount CAsTunsaou, it is understood, has made
arrangements for being absent two months. It is
said that the Viscountess, Lady -EmMA MoUNT-EDGE.
ct-stan, &c. will stop with the Earl of CLANGARry, in
Holland, and remain there till the return of the Noble
' Viscount.
As the carriages of Lord CASTLEREAGH were pass-
ing through White-Chapel towards Mile-end, last
sight, proceeding on their journey, the chains were
cut frOm the trunks. The loss was discovered at the
turnpike Owing to their weight, It is Auppoted the
villains were unable to carry the trunks away.. His
Lordship was detained tull an hour and a half by
this circumstance; before other chains could be pro.
c.-orscl to gore them from a limilar attempt.
