The compliment paid to his Royal Highness the
PatNcu RSSZNT, in the French Oficial Gazette (on
-
muting Lord CASTLISIAOII% Letter to Prince TAL.
=MANN announcing the cessation of all hostilities
011 the coasts of France), was not unmerited on the
part of his Royal Highness. Great as is the blessing
of peace to every other State in Europe, it may cer-
tainly be considered u of principal importance to
France herself ; for without it she must have con-
tinued to revert with an accelerated momentum to a
state of absolgte barbarism. Her system under the
Tyrant, who has at length been overthrown, had no
other tendency ; and for the overthrow of this system

and the salvable condition into which she has been
brought she is indebted. next to PSOVIDENCI4 to the
firmness and energy of the Patna itztissr Exa-
LAND.

There was a moment in which almost every man
in this country was ready to give up the contest as
hopeless—to leave France to herself and trust to the
chapter of accidents, for such unlocked for events as
might suspend or avert the calamities with which
Europe was threatened. But the PIMICii Roosts:
stood firm—his firmness inspired fresh cafidence in
his Counsellors, and their joint courage gave new
hopes and revived energies to Europe. The Patin:
sular war was prosecuted with vigour...the man who
boasted that he held the destinies of the world in his
hands consummated his madness by marching the
misculineDe stamina of Figur* to Moscow—the Angel
Death
of spread destruction over his hosts—the Rue•
sians punned the retreating array—Europe rose is
anus, and belke the chains with which she bad been
lorded 1

To Divine benebenee is the world indebted for

the tempest, and the whirlwind, employs the energies
of moral agents ; and on this occasion the prime in-
strument employed to rouse the moral energies of
Europe was the Fame Reo*ai of ENGLAND. Let
the relations and tendencies of all the leading political
-events,for years put be examined with coolness and
candour, and we defy any sober-minded person to
come to a different conclasion. Sure we are, how.
ever much the opinions of some men may be warped
by prejudice to view events through a false medium,
that Visterity will do justice to the patriotism, the
energy, and the enlightened views of his Royal
Highness, and assign to him the chief merit of hay.
big brought about the present happy crisis.
The moral depravity of France is proved by the
conduct of her soldiers at the present moment. We
have been informed over and over of the submission
of the armies to the Kra% and perhaps in less than
24 hours we hear of them acting as a deliberktive
body, talking of terms and boasting of their principles.
In the Paris Papers of Saturday, which earn/ to
hand this morning, we meet with various accounts
of small parties of military spreading themselves
among the villages and living by plundering the in-
habitants. These are the men that boast of their
principles and love of country I It will be no eaty
task to reform this class of men. If the whole army
shall be disbanded, it is to be feared that the
kingdom will be overrun with thieves and robbers ;
and, on the other hand, should it be kept entire,there.
will always be a danger nf its being led by designing
men to join in plots and conspiracies for the subver-
sion of the Government. Perhaps some middle course
may be devised, as forming them into new regiments;
separating them from all intercourse with the inha-
bitants, and putting them in garrisons in the interior ;-
changing the quarters of individual regiments fee.
quently, so as never to allow the same corps to re-'
main long together; and discharging the men gra-
dually so as to melt them slowly into the common
mass of the community.
It is confirmed that Davousr has arrived at Paris;
and that MACDONALD has gone to take the command
of the army that was formerly under DAVOUST.—
Report in the French papers states, that it is to be
dislocated--that is, the regiments to be separated from
each other. This we consider as the commencement

of such a system.as we have alluded to above, and
we doubt not that it will be followed up with perm.
verance and effeet, while the presence of the allied
army will leave the Government nothing to fear, if
it act only with energy, yet with prudence.

delay. We subjoin the following extracts on this
and other subjects from the Belgian Journals :

BRUSSELS. JULY 118.

We this moment learn-that the fortress of Civet,
in the French part of the county of Namur, has sur-
rendered by capitulation.
'Yesterday his Majesty visited the hospitals of this
city. He first visited the Belgic Military Hospital,
in the Jesuits' College. He was accompanied by all
the principal Surgeons belonging to the hospitals.
-His Majesty entered into the minutest details, and
expressed hiinself highly satisfied with the measures
that have been taken.

His Majesty,then went to the hospital of the Eng-
lish troops, and in succession to all the hospitals of
wounded soldiers. His Majesty passed in these visits
all the time from noon till six o'clock. His Majesty
addressed the soldiers's:if all the different nations, and
spas to them in the most flittering terms of their
otsurage, and of the victory which they had concur•
red in gaining.

BRUGES, JULY U.

Since the 22d there have arrived here successively,
from 10 to 12,000 English troops ; among them are
the brigade of Colonel Crieker, the Sd Reghnent of
Dragoon Garde of the Prince Regent, and a part
of the first Regiment of Guards, with numerous de.
taehments of the train of Commissariat. All these
troops, which have latelj landed at Ostend, proceed
by way of %tint to join the army of the Dube of
Wellington.
• ' HAGUE, JULY 27.

The &oratory of State for the Home Department,
by his Majesty's orders, has convoked the States-
General to sleet at the Hague on the Bth of August,
to constitute themselves, and, having chosen a Pre-
sident, to proceed to the examination of the new fun-
Aliment:4 laws of the kfoidom.

PETERSBUROH, JULY 1.

By an order from his Majesty to persons belonging
to the departments of the Interior, (Justice, Police,
and Finance.) are to repair to the head-quarters of
Barclay de. Tolly. The choice is left to the Minis-
ters: it is only required that they shall at lean have
the rank of Officers of the Staff. and be acquainted
with foreign languages. They set out immediately.

• Yesterday the Duke of CLAMINCE paid his respects
to the Panics KaGIMIT, at Carlton House, for the
int time since his indisposition.
Mr. Clouse. who arrived on Sundarnight at his
home at the Admiralty, brought with him two of the
breast-plates of BOHAPAIITIA cuirassiers, and three of
the lances.
Lord KEITH, in his official character as Admiral
of the fleet on the station, will have to read to BOIWA•
PARTE the determination of the C4binet as to his future
residence and treatment in the Island of St. Helena.
BONAPARTE, we understand, has heard of his destine.
don, and has written to lord KEITH a most vehement
remonstrance against the measure of sending him there.
With what temper, then, will he receive the dismal con-
firmation of it ? It is said that he is to be permitted to
take with him three friends and twelve servants.—
The amount of the bills and cash which he is said to
possess is £200,000 seeding. It is reported that Sir
Hansom Lowe detlines the appointment of being his
Keeper, and we do net know what other Oilicer.has
been selected for the purpose. The Island is to re-
main in the hands of the East India Company, whose
troops, under the excellent Officer Colonel MADE
WILKE, will continue to occupy the bay, harbour,
and low lands ; and a King's regiment, with a Com-
mandant, wiil be stationed on the high land, as his
body guard. Tliis is the final arrangement made
with the Company, so that their ships will touch there
as usual in their homeward passage.
Private letters of a recent date, tronfl3ilboa, state
that the merchants sad psuptietors had paid one-third
of the contribution imposed on that part of the coun-
try by the King of Spain ; but were so much distressed
to accomplish it, that they proposed to send Depu.
ties to Madrid to solicit a release from the payment
of the remainder as totally impracticable. That part
of Spain is covered with bands of robbers, the re-1
mains of the Gostilles and other troops employed in
the late war.

In the great battle of Waterloo. a private in the
Scots Greys, named LAUREL and a native of Ayr-
shire, received eighteen- sword and sabre wounds, the
greater number of which were inflicted by the French
after he was on the ground, dismounted. A few
days previobs to the battle he had accounts of his
father's death, by which thisigallant private soldier
became possessed of £12,000. lie says, that he saved
his life in the end only by calling out in French, as
the enemy was charging over him—si men diem !
Imoa kir ! mer anis ! met awn!" by which coat t i vanes
he was taken for one of their own men. He gives a
dreadful account of the battle, and says that it was
gained only by that persevering bravery inherent in
the British soldier—that the French shewed equal
bravery, but that they were actually tired out.
