PEACE!

That ic, as we underftand it—a Peace trit; tiv Conti-
►ental Power, only, that he may be left unincuinbered
to profecute the war with this country.
The Paris news of the 17th Rates, that the Arch-
duke CHARLES, whom we confider as the only good
General belonging to the AuQrian army, had died of
fatigue; but as no mention is made of a piece of in-
telligence, fo important, in any of the fubfequent
journals down to the aril, we are inclined to hope it
is unfounded. The junflion, however, of BERNA-
DOTTE'S divifion, with the left wing of MASSER/I'S
army, Rated in the above telegraphic difpatch, leaves
us no hope that he can retreat or avoid furrendering
his army, which has been left altogether unfupported.
Such is the fubflance of the intelligence that has
been received through the medium of the French
papers of the iffue of this difaßrous campaign upon
the Continent. It would be the height of infanity
for this country now to count upon any effeCtital co-
operation from the Continental Powers. We have
nothing to look to but our own means and refources,
and a hope that the arm of the OMNIPOTENT, not-
withflanding our demerits, will Rill continue to be
our protection, and give us deliverance from the
alarming Power of thole who reek our deltrultion.

We have oftener than once raifed our feeble voice
to call upon the country to prepare for its own de.
fence. We have been traduced and vilified for fo
doing—our call has been but little attended to—the
purity of our motives has even been quellioned by
time.ferving drivellers and thnrt•fighted politicians.
But we feel it to be an imperious duty to repeat tbefe
warnings, and we know that in the public profs of

weeks.

this country there (ill remains futEcient virtue to
mate the voice of truth be heard.
Is this a time for half meafures ? Have we not
had fufficient experience of their folly and madnefs ?
Shall we lit with oor arms defpording, and content
onrfelves with fruitlef, wailings at the fad difafters
1 that have befallen our friendi—like the wagprer itn-
ptoring Hercules to drag his cart out of the mire ?
1" Put your shoulders to the wheel, and Hercules will
help you."
Every man in this country who is not precluded
by age or infirmity muff be taught the u of arms !
An ability to fire in regular platoons, and go through
all the ufelefs thew of military parade, is not what is
wanted. This is in the prefent circumilances of Lu•
rope, an idle walk of time, of ammunition, of men !
Let us know the pradice of ai ms—let us be markfnien.

It was remarked yeller day, in the Houre of 'Ards,
that the Loan CHANCELLOR, when he declared the
Parliament prorogued till Tueiday, the 7:h of Ja-
nuary, only faid, as ufu 11, " to be then here holden
and fit." His Lordfhip did not add, "for the confi-
deration and. difpatch of divers urgent and importent
train. ;" and from this it may be inferred, that the
deliberations of the Great Council of the Nation will
probably not commence until about the arft of Ja-
nuary. At all events, from the above, it is not likely
that Parliament will be aflembled before her Lt6ea)%
Birthday.

Yeflerday morning his MAJESTY. the Duke of
Yoga, the Princelfes AUGUSTA, SOPHIA, and Am s-
LIA, attended by Mr. GREVILLE and other attendants,

Yeflerday the principal inhabitants of Windfor
dined tlgether in the 'lowa Hall, to celebrate the
Naval Vidoties.

The Lynn Ball and Supper, in celebration of the
'fllmions viftury off Trafalgar, was attended by 300
Ladies and Gentlemen of the town and neighbaur•
hood—among whom were, Lord and Lady FALK-
LAND, Lady ANDovee, Sir MARTIN, Lady and the
Miffes Fnears, Sir JACOB ASTLEY, Mr. CORE, the
Honourable Colonel Waeroes, Sir Jon SHRLLEY.

I Extra of a letter from Brit&ls, Nov. 9.—" We
have the piszafure to inform you, that the tentence of
!impriforiment. laid to have been paffed on a trial
that took place a few months ago atVals!nciennes, on
a. Mr. EWEANK, an eminent Merchant in Cambi its,
and Banker there, under the impreffion of his having
I anted Captain Joni:tee and Colonel SMITU in their
elcape from thence two years ago, has, by a judicial
appeal to another Court, been referved, and Mr. E.
molt honourably acquitted."
A letter from Trinidad, dated the zsah of Septem-
ber lall, communicates the following intelligence,
viz.—Admiral CocnRANE had arrived there, with the
NORTHUM3ERLAND, of 74 guns, and the BEAULIEU
' frigate. His objea was to examine, and gain pat ti.
enlist- information refpeeting a lake of pitch, which
lies near the Gulph of Paria, about twensy miles from
Porto d'Elpagna, dole to the fea, and extends five
Miles, in one ditelion. Should this be found in all
refpe6ll as it h:rs been defcribed, it may prove of
I great fervice in the Britilli Navy, as immenfe quanti-
I ties may be obtained merely at the expence of dig-
ging.

The (porting gentlemen in town yellerday were
amufcd:with a leaping match, in Hyste.pal I:, for a
few guineas.
The public are often told of this and that plizno.
meson But the greatett that ever occurred in the
Lottery World is, indifputably, the one which the
prefent Scheme exhibits, namely, the inuner.fe film
of One Hundred and Ten Thouland Pounds (ex:
clufive of a concomitant chance of gaining, at the
fame time, a confiderable number of Capital Prizes)
peremptorily allotted to the Firit Drawn sox, num.
bers. Hence adventurers will clearly perceive the
great prudence and policy of being early in the Lot•
tery market.
