In times like the p'efent, of prevailing infidelity, temptation,
and vice, it becomes every friend of Religion to found the alarm to
his brethren, and aim them the (stay and excellence of the ground
on which they are exhorted to ftand. Irreligion and immorality
' are as injurious to the peace and order of Society, as to the belt
interefls of the individual. He therefore, who honestly endeavours
to counteradt their baleful influence, may well be conlidered as a
friend to his fpecies.

'the following commendations of the former editions of this
Work are refpectfully (Omitted to the Public:
" It niuft certainly ferve very much to confirm the authority of
Chritlianity, and to eftablilh a full convidtion of ifs value. if it c,n
be clearly proved, not oily from general reaforing on the nature
of its (10G:trine. that its tendency is ukful, but alto. from a dired
appeal to Hiftorieal fadts, that its actual operation on Mankind has
been highly beneficial.
This is the laudable undertaking in which Dr. Ryan has en-
gaged: and he has, in the prelen, voiun.e. laboured, with much
increafed induftry. in (catching fur matcrills eilabliih his point
in civil and ceder' iftical history, and in the writings of celebrated
plailofophers and divines. We repeat that we are of opinion, that
Dr Ryan H entitled to commendation for the pains which he has
taken to prove what, on the whole, appears fairly admillibic—that
the actual opera:lea of Religion in gena:ai, and of Chrifliatfity in

they have fuffered, has been beneficial to Mankind."

We have already mentioned that confiderable dif-
ferences in opinion exifted refpeaing the propriety of
preffing at the prefent moment the Roman Catholic
Officers' Bill. We underftand that thofe high cha.
raters who approve the meafure, not withing to urge
any thing that can diftraa the Councils of the nation
at fo important a crifis, have, in the molt conciliating
manner, agreed to let it drop. Such is the report in
the higher circles, and we underfland that Lord
GRENVILLE aaually went to Windfor this morning
to make this communication to his MAJESTY.
On a fubjeet of fo much delicacy, we (hall ahftain
from entering into any detailed comment. It has
undoubtedly occafioned an unufual degree of public
attention and anxiety for fome days pall ; and we
fincerely hope that it may terminate without any dif
agreement or difunion in the Cabinet. It has been
pofitively afferted (and we are inclined to give credit
to it) that Lord SIDMOUTH fent in his refigaation to
Lord GRENVILLE fo long ago as Wednefday
This was, ,perhaps, done, on an underftanding that
the meafure was to be perfifted in, and to which, of
courfe, bis Lordfhip would not be a party. As the
matter is now terminated, we fincerely hope that it
may appear, that no circumftances have occurred
during the difcuffions on this important queftion,
which may have produced the neceffity or the pro-
priety of the reparation of that Noble Lord from his
MAJESTY'S Councils at fuch a crifis ; and, we are
fatisfied, that nothing Bind of a conviaion on his
part, that he could no longer continue there with
honour, or with a hope of bring ufeful, would lead
to fuch a determination.

The difpatches which we have already hated to
have been brought b 7 Mr. Pr samorirr, were from
the Court of Pruffia at Memel, and not as has been
hated, from Stockholm. He likewife brought letters
from Lord HUTCHINSON ; but the principal objelt of
his journey was to deliver to Minillers a 'FKIATT
offenfive and defenfive, between the COURTS of
MEMEL, STOCKHOLM; and Lottonw. The intelli-
gence which he brings from the Theatre of war is
merely incidental, and was not of importance enough
to have exclufively required a more than ordinary
Mellinger. We underhand it to be in fubhance as
follows :

The Ruffians, on the loth, two days after the

battle of Eylau, were encamped within two miles of
the fccne of aition—the Prcgcl was between the two
armies. The French were in retreat; the Ruffians
remained flationary ; hut, from the barren (tate of
the country, and the total want of every thing,
orders had been gi"en to fall back. The garrifon
of Koningtberg had paraded, with drums beating
and colours flying, to a diflance of twelve miles
from the city, and, Winked by the army of General
Braxicsse, bad driven in an advanced pcft of the
French Main Army, and returned to Koning(berg
with an eagle and five hundred prifoners. The
fpirits of the Pruftian Army, and the loyal part of
the people, bad been much elevated by the com-
plete fuccefs of General BENNICS BM. The King and
(:)zeen cf Pr nffla were in excellent health ; the latter
was as indefatigable and undaunted as ever. Every
hour of the day (he paffed in writing letters, or giv-
jog andi•nce to the Minifters. The King has fuck
confluence in her talents, that he never fees any per-
fon alone, nor refolves on any meafure without her
advice. It was by her Majefty's fuggeflion that the
late Minifter of War was difmiffed, and General
Gocx appointed to fill his funation. The, caute of
his difmiffal was, his having advifed to negotiate for
peace.
From Ott line of retreat cf the French, it was Le-

lieved at Memel and at Koningfberg, that they were
about to abandon Warfaw, and to; eftablifh them-
felves at Thorn. All their outpofts on the Mum
were already called in ; but it was fuppofed, at the
period of the departure of Mr. PIEltlikPnINT, that
from the number of lick and wounded in the hofpi.
tals at Warfaw, the French would be compelled to
retain a powerful garrifon in that city.
The French troops were much haraffed by the
Col Tacks, who, with an irregularity againft which no
vigilance could guard, availed themfelves of every
opportunity of croffing the rivers, and harafEng the
rear detachments of the French army. Many of the
French cavalry had been drowned in attenoing to
follow them acrofs the rivers.
The above we underhand to be the fubftance of
the intelligence brought by Mr. PICRRFPOINT. The
Letters from Lord HUTCHINSON, which Mr. PIERRE-
POINT received in the courfe of his journey, are of a
more private nature, and nothing has tranfpired re-
fpating either as to their contents or their general
objet. It is reported that they refer to an earnell
requeft of the Court of Peterfburgh, for a Loan or
Subfidy ; but as this report mull have orginated tole•
ly in conjeaure, we cannot confider it as entitled to
the credit of authority. We give it, however, as a
rumour, which we fhould not be furprifed to find
hereafter verified.

Some letters from Stettin were received on Satur-
day, by a velfel which failed from thence at the latter
end of February. No accounts of any altion fubfe-
quent to the battle of Eylau, except the affair at
ORrolenka on the 16th, had been reeeived there.—
The refult of this was reported to be quite different
from what the enemy reprefented. The divifion of
Leswes, which was Rationed nn the Narew, for the
purpofe of preventing the junetion between the main
army and General Vow Esse m's corps, made an at-
tack upon the latter, which was received with fuch
firmnefs as compelled the French to fall back pre-
cipitately, and leave the Ruffians to purfue their
march unmolefted. The knowledge that this reinforce-
ment was on its way, is fuppofed to have determined
BONAPARTR to bring on a general engagement, in
which, if be had been fuccefsful, the juntlion would
have been impraiticable. The information upon which
he aced, does not appear to have been very accurate.'
No exertions of General Vow EssEN's corps could
have enabled it to join the main army for feveral days
after the Bth. In Rationing, therefore, a divifion of
his army on the Narew, BONAPARTE abfolotely de-
prived himfelf of the preponderance which its junc-
tion might have enfured. Swvarty, with the force
under his command, might have decided the battle
of Eylau ; inftead of which, he appears to have been
ported at Oftrolenka, ever fince the commencement
of the month, to prevent a junition which could not•
poffibly take place, were even the route unobltrated,
until its conclufion. We expect the next accounts
from the Continent will inform us that the Ruffians
have refumed offenfive operations. It is not unlikely
that we (hall fuon hear of another general engage-
ment.
