A strong column of Austrian troops. under Gene.
ril Hohenzollern. is stationed on the frontiers the
Canton ot Schaffhausen. It seems to be merely a
corps of observation in Upper Suabia. The allied
troops concentrate themselves more and more upon
the Swiss frontiers. We expect the speedy invasion
ot Alsace, and the passage over the Rhine.

troops arrived. at Huninguen and the environs. Some

The Minister's propowl to lay an additional half-
pent!, on the Stamps of News-papersy..aftera motion
of alinendmeat, by Sir J. Niwrour, that the duty
shout, continue at
.threepenci halfpenny, which was
negatived, was last night agreed to by the House of
Commas. Iu carrying this measure the Mioister
will, au long, verity the quaint proverb of Ike"
twin slid tofishl" The tax will pot only be et-
- 1
psodtsctive, but occailnft a de prey in the present
revenue': and is, at, the' same time,highi;
The public press has been of great service to the
State and .to the morals of the country ; nor has it
ever failed to perform its duty on all great and trying
occasions—witness its exertions during the ADDING.
TON Administration. When threatened with invasion,
and when the Minister, duly appreciating the loyalty
of the people, proposed to arm the general popula.
don, Ms eVewritaiter true fleeted the rime lekskieratust.
On this great question there were no party politics
the nation was roused to exert its energies, and came
forth as armed volunteers with a unanimity, zeal,
and fervour which no engine but the press could have
called into action.

But why dwell on a single event, creditable as it
was to the Minister, and glorious to the Nation !
Look at the present.state of Europe ! When the
world had become mad—when even wise and well-
meaning men had been deprived of their senses, and
vainly expected the triumph of Liberty and the ame-
lioration of the general condition of mankind—when,
on the contrary. anarchy, war, murder, and atheism,
had nearly destroyed all the bands of society, and ba-
nished justice and morality from the earth ! When
Europe appeared to be reverting to absolute barba-
rism, what mighty power averted theselevils ?—The
-Ministers•of this country ? Nu ! —nothing but the Free
Press of Great Britain!
The powers of thii mighty engine have never been
properly appreciated by any Administration If they
had, instead of- fetteiing and cramping its move-
ments by injudicions taxation, by winking at restraints
on its foreign extension, for the private dnolument of
public servants, who are fed by the very revenue
which is thus injured, and by-viewing its general ten-
dencies with a jaundiced eye—instead of panning
measures calculated to repress itgeuergies. they would
have *glven it every encouragement to promote the
diffusion of its productions over the civilized world,
as the most powerful of all the means that could be
employed to destroy the pernicious infernal doctrines
of the French revolutionary system.
Wise architects are always careful not to do any
thing that can endanger the principal supports of an
edifice. if Mr. VANSITTART wouli prove himself a
wise Minister, he will yet pause before he enforce a
tax which will tend to destroy the best prop of the
happiness and independence, not only of Britain, but
of Europe. So far will he'be from pursuing his pre-
sent system, that he will reverse it, and do every
thing in his power to promote the circulation of Eng-
lish News-papers all over the world, at the cheapest
possible rate. It the Press of Britain, in spite of the
impolitic duties and restraints with which it bas been
loaded. has been able to effect so much as it has, for
the benefit of mankind, what couldit not accomplish
were it to receive that fostering protection, which a
wise end enlightened Government should bestow upon
it ? What ! endanger so many positive benefits for the
bare chance of obtaining a paltry revenue of £50,000
a-year !!—We shall still hope that, at any rate, the
Minister will not persist in laying an additional half-
penny on the Stamp, but be satisfied with the addi-
tional duty of six-pence on each Advertisement.

A GICATKATRIMONIAL AND POLITICAL ALLIANCE.
A strong proof of the perfect harmony and friendship

brother, and :t Princess of Ausvnti, the sister of the

all the property in the warehouses, consisting princi-

destroyed. We are sorry to add, a person who lodged
in the back pan of the yard, was seen several times
at the window attempting to get out; but the floor
gave way, and he unfortunately perished. The body
was found a few hours afierwerds in a mutilated
