We have received the P.►ris Papers of Sauirliy.
They contain but little intelligence of iniportance.
LABE:Domm►ti's appeal has not yet been decided on,
and we presume he Will be permitted to slip out of the
hands of justice, for they now speak of a nullity I►av-
lag been found in the proceedings against him.
An alarming account is given of the daily expen-
diture of provisions in Paris, in consequence of the
presence of the Allied Troops.
The Calais Diligente has been also stopfed and
the passengers robbed.

List night we received Ger Man Papers in addition
to those which had reached us in the morning, and
from which we have given ample extracts.
The ravages of the Barbary pirates excite much
alarm and no small degree of clamour along the Eu-
ropean shores of .the Mediterranean. On this topic,
so disgraceful to every Power in Europe, particularly
to those that are maritime, we have before had occa-
sion to offer our opistion. We are persuaded that it
forms one of the 'subjects brought under the discus'
sion of the Allied Sovereigns, and that some effec-
tual remedy is intended for this shocking.system of
outrage, robbery, and elan-stealing. Our only ap-
prehension is that half measures may be resorted to,
and that the means of mischief may still be left, by
atreaty, in the hands of lawless tyrants who are as
much a scourge to their own hordes as to the mari-
time nations of the world. It is a great calamity to
mankind generally, that the northern shores of Africa,
one of the finest districts of the earth, should he suf-
fered to remain subject to the rod of any lauless
robber who can wade to the sovereignty through
blood. It is we say a calamity to mankind; for
by wresting the authority from such men—which
is the only proper remedy for the evils which
have so long been inflicted on the commerce and
on the persons of Europeans by these barbarians
—the North of Africa would soon be civilized ;
the benefits would extend to the' interior, and an
extensive and lucrative commerce, beneficial to all,
Would succeed the present systemot rapine and piracy.
F,ce. effectin such a revolution nt we now rectm-
Mend, an expensive and unjustifiable system of sub.
jugation is not contemplated : nothing of this kind
is required. All that will be necessary is to drive
out of their strong holds on the coast the bloody
tyrants who now oppress the inhabitants, and are
constantly carrying on unprovoked warfare against
the subjects of other Powers. Keep these ports pro-
perly garrisoned, protect the citizens, and give notice
to the inhabitants of the country that you mean to
keep possession of them, but without any views hostile
.
to the occupiers of the soil. If this be done, the in.
habitants will, themselves, shake off the yoke of their
present masters, and gradually plot: themselves
under the' protection of European laws.

Let any one look at the high state of cultivation to
which this part of Africa was brought during the
better periods of the Roman Empire, and they will
form some idea of the advantages, which not only
the inhabitants themselves, but Europe, would derive
from such a liberal and enlightened policy as might
emancipate the people of the African coast from their
present wretched Condition, under the worst govern-
ment on the face of the earth.
If extension of territory be the aim of the European
Powers, in this quarter they might gratify their desires;

and (which rarely accompanies a lust of dominion)
'without injury to mankind. They would indeed
confer a real blessing on the world by turning their
eyes and their arms to this quarter; and they might
thus avoid laying a foundation fur those future luar-
rels on the Continent of Europe, which are very likely
to rise out of the measures now pursuing on the pre-
text of indemnities and securities.

We mentioned yesterday the reports ht some of
even the Official Continental Journals, of an intended
dismemberment of France ; that sotite of the frontier'
provinces are to be ceded to the KING of the NEIMER.
LANDI, who in consequence, will part with some of
his eastern territories to Prussia ; while Austria also
and the KING of SARDINIA will receive an accession
of territory. This arrangement, which k directly in
the teeth of the Paris Papers, may be mere specula.
tion. But it is plain that nothing final has been re.
solved on respecting the measures to be put in acti.
vity for the future safety of Europe ; and it is on this-
account that we new princip4lly allude to them.
—lt is easier to snake lofty demands than to demon-
strate their utility. It is obviously politic not to in-
crease the irritations of a restless neighbour, without
diminishing his power of doing mischief—without
making a deduction from his strength somewhat more
than adequate to the addition you give to his ill-will.
Any thing between these two predicaments is called a
half measure and justly deemed an unwise one. Now
we apprehend that if the exeeuive provocation of for-
mally aeveting from France two or three frontier dis•

surely take it now as a (fawns froni which to it'll's its
the exasperation to be expected lions thi; new blow.
Will any man look calmly at the irtit.iti id of 'te.king
these districts from France, amid eie.i say, that, in
his opinion any Treaty, anit one .% ar, can appease
it ? We ought to be careful how we give the now:

to frighten us out of Any itidispensible heo?fii, we
should allow the character ni their present rren,•ra•

to avoid unnecessary provocation.
But this would indeed be a challenge a Poutrawe. ft
would perpetuate the rage of the Jacotan; ; hurt tl'e
pride of the Royalists ; and till time whole connuy

perous measures often appear to be the sales,. Fi.

would Alsace, Lorraine, and French F.an,lers, be
from adding any strength to the Allies, exeelt t 01.
the fortresses!
" The fortreria." Yes—and this we consider as
the most ittportant point for consideration. Cane
only to a tight conclusion respecting them and thete
will be no necessity either to retain them or to seize
any of the provinces which belonged to France at
the beginning of the revolution. These fortresses,
in the present state of France and of Europe, are the
only points of danger. They were both originally
for the defence of the French frontier. They have
since been converted into engines for the lay :lion of
other States, by furnishing depots, rallying points,
covers, and means of defence when repelled at any
time after an unjust aggression. There they have re-
cruited their means for renewed invasi,)n ; and when
ready, by means of these fortresses, they have been
enabled again to break the peace and rob their
neighbours.
As a part of the same system. whenever they had
the opportunity, they dismantled the frontier garrison
towns of other States, that their, neip,kbours might
not have the means to oppose their future inciirsions.
What then is the dictate of common sense on the pre.
sent occasion ? Destroy these fortresses ! rase:km to their
foundation: ! Do this, and you secure the peace of
France and of Europe till the present generation of
men shall all be buried in the clit,t. It ever these
fortresses are rebuilt, it will revire all the resources
of France for half a century to comes nor till then
widshe dare to disturb her neighbours.

We have received Brussels Papers to the 510th and
Fragkforr. to the 16th instant. We subjoin the chit f
articles which they contain :
