Vitoria, °cross's 12 —Mort foreign powers and
people have miflaken the motives which determined '1
the Cabinet of Vienna to advifc its Sovereign to
aunts the Title of an hereditary Emperor of Au- ,1
Aria. Every rate moil acknowledge that Bo AAAAA !
has rearms to be proud of the fuccefs of his political
machinations and intrigues ; that he makes a traffic
of every paffion of the human heart, finds nut the
wants and weaknefes of every Court and of every
potentate, and, by playing upon the common failings
of them all, renders every power, even in its degra-
dation and fall, fubfervient to his own gigantic views
of ambition and aggrandifement. fstrt this cannot
be applied to the recent affiimption of the new here
ditary dignity by FRANCIS II.; nor is this meafure
to be regarded as a fludisti imitation of the conduit
of the uptlart felf-eletted tyrant of France, or as a
ignition of his ufurpation. Surely there is a fubflan-
tial and obvious difference between the mere change
of a Title from King to Emperor, by a lawful here-
ditary Monarch, without the advancement of any
new pretentions, without' the excrete of any ad-
ditional power; and the affumptioo of* title by an.
Worper, not only more dignified and elevated than
that which he previoufly enjoyed, bit of a nature
totally different, and accompanied with the ufurpa-
dos of a defpotic and Abfoliete power, equally de-
draffve of that limited authority with which the
people bad entrulled him, and of that Connitution
which he WAS appointed to protee, and which he
bad Carom to maintain. In the former, therefore, is
neither imitation, nor finelion of the latter. It is the
intarelt (f Bo to five it confidered in this
point of view; but it is to be hoped. that his mifera•
bk fopiliary will not tucceed now, as it has done in
CO many other mammies, iu blinding the iinlgment of
Mankind, ai.J in filen, mg tilt vn cc of comm.ofenfe.

A private letter from Paris of the ,Bth ult. Rates,
that it was not from any other caufe but the non-
arrival of the Pops, that the coronation of the Cor.
titan adventurer, as an Emperor of the French, was
poftponed from the gth to the atd inflant. The un-
fortunate Pontiff has, during thefelaft eight months,
been erpofed to all poffible threats, humiliations,
and plots of BON AAAAAA 's military fatollites and
political intriguers. Our correfpondent informs us,
that line !Ai March, Pius VIL has been informed,
that he me go to France to perform the futile-
gious ceremony of crowning an affaffin and Atheiß,
or refign the Tiara to Cardinal Fuca, and pats
the remainder of his days in a convent. Snfpend-
ed between his duty as a Chriftian Pontiff, and his
obligations as a temporal Sovereign, tormented by
the pangs of his own eonfcience, and dreading the
confequences for his fubjeds, should be lilies to its
dictates, he has negociated, offered pecuniary fa-
crifices, and fuU power to Cardinal FISCH, to act on
this occafion in his name and on his part. Nothing,
however, would fatisfy the outrageous ambition and
atrocious policy of the barbarous NAPOLLON, but to
afcend a throne, feated on the ruins of religion, as
well as of loyalty. From the camp of Boulogne,
laft Aogull, Bo therefore, informed the
Pops, that an immediate Aim was required from
him, or before he, Bo , was crowned an
Emperor, Pius VII fhould be reduced to a BiSop
of Rome, and the fubjed of the King of Saim-
aa, to whom the Ecclefiallical States fhould be
given in indemnity. The Members of the Sacred
College were then convoked, and it was determined
that the Chief of the Roman Church fhould

(Omit, with Chrillian humility, to the degrading
circumitances of the times." Knowing, however,
B 's defire to be crowned on the anni-
verfary of his ufurpation, by feigning illnefs, the
Pore hoped that this period would pars over, and
Tome one elfe perform the ceremony. Of this
Bona AAAAA did not become the dupe, but ordered
his aid decamp, General CAT AAAAA LI, to fet out im-
mediately for Rome, and not lofe fight of the Pope,
until he had paired the frontiers of France ; inform-
ing this indeptndent Sovereign at the fame time, that,
was his journey pollponed until next rummer, from
natural or artificial caufes, the coronation ceremony
Smola be alto pollpolltd, as BONAPARTE was deter-
mined that none but the Pope ihould place the im-
perial crown on his head."
We are, however, allured, that the health of Pius
VII. is much impaired, and that on this account be
has voluntarily offered to return to the monaflery of
the Chartruefe. at Rome, there to await his death,
refigning his triple crown to any one chofen by the
conclave. This, again, has been refuted, as too late,
by the mercilefs Corfican ; and, when the lafi letters
left Rome, preparations were made for his Holinefs's
journey to France, though his infirmities, his grief,
and the futon, will probably Coon terminate his life.
