TUESDAY, APRIL 12, 1814.
Cts-rtn TuZSDAY.—Hoiiday at the MA/ and Public Offices.

Mr. Mrxrs, the Messenger, arrived this morning
at the FOreign Office, with dispatches from Lord
CASTLEREAGH, hut they are o .ly duplicates of those
already received. Mr. MEATS came by the way of
Switzerland and Holland, and was therefore detained
considerably on his route. It was at one time sup-
posed he had been killed.

Ample extracts frOni the trench Papers to the Sth
instant, will be found in another part of our Paper:

We briefly noticed the intelligence brought by them
yesterday.
Perhaps not the least important of their contents
are—the minuet of the proceedings of the Conserva-
tive Senate-; by which they formally, in a kind of
manifes.o. declare their reasons for overthrowing the
Napoleon Dyna,,ty.
nos APARTk is accused of levying taxes and making
war, in degan, e of the Constitution and in violation
of his Oath. His execrable system of despotism, or
rather terrorism, is briefly, but correctly, described.
In short, the present Legislators of France, whatever
tnay have been their former demerits, hate done
much tow rds the redemption of their characters in
the estimation of all good men, by the temperate and
philt•sophic spirit in which they have etf cted the
glorious co qiter4evolution. They seem to have
taken for :heir models the Patriots who, in former
ages, acquired immortality by being the saviours of
their respective countries.
was by short, pithy, and judicious denunciations;
like those of the Conservative Sentte, that the usur-
pation of CuomwELL, and the bigotted despotism of
the last of the Srunturs, were successively made pal-
pable to the understandings of the people, who hailed
the appeal which was thus made to them wi,h corres-
pondent emotion. Eternal honour to the Allied So.
vereigns and ever revered be their Councillors, who,
by a steady perseverance in the pursuit of one great
Object, namely, the overthrow of BONAPARTE, have
conferred the inestimable blessings of universal Peace
upon Mankind ! the mild, conciliatory; and judi-
cious Proclamations which they issued to the French
nation, have done more towards the attainment of
ibis mighty purpse than the edge of the conquer-

ing sword.
E‘er Tictorions, the short breathitg time which
their restless and untameable enemy gave them was
occupied, not in preparing for fresh combats, bur in
preaching up the language of peact and good-will to
the childless and houseless inhabitants of France.
In saving Paris from destruction, they have given
a pledge, (if pledge from such heroes as ALEXANDER
and FRANCIS, SCHWARTZENDERG and BLUCHER, were
necessarf,) that they were ~incere in7Their wishes
to see France happy, and flourishing, and free. They
have therefore founded the new constitution of that
distracted country upon a rock which sill resist the
storms of ages. The future Sovereigns of France will
live in the hearts of their subjects, because they will
learn from history the awful moral lesson, that in the
days of their security and popularity, they ought to
lay up their treasures in the affection:, and not in the
isturions of the people. It was thus that ALEXANDER
the GOOD repelled the unprincipled Invader from his
dominions; and it was by despising this great prin-
ciple of the law of Nature, that BONAPARTE the
BAD WES hurled from the eminence which he had
attained.
