- the whole Swedish Government. It is hitt, that ac-
cording to the old law of nations established in En.
rope, a conquered province was never disposed of to
a third power, until ceded by the original possessors,
at the conclusion of a .psace. Bet Bonaparte has
trodden under foot that venerable code: he has incor-
porated with France a number of Provinces that never
were ceded by their legitimate'Sovereigns; the king.
.clom of Westphalia was put 'together in a similar
way. His own proper acts have therefore rendered
void his reclamadons, and England has exercised
only very moderate reprisals. Sweden, on the other
hand, was entitled to seize this opportunity of reta-
liating on Bonaparte ; he had invaded Pomerania ;
Sweden took possession of Guadeloupe. And if at
a general peace that power should ever consent to
restore Guadeloupe, in consideration of an equivalent,
this would always be a service done to France in con-
cert with the English Government.
" By accepting Guadeloupe, SWeden wished to
prove to the world that she was not afraid of Bona-
parte. She early foresaw the fall of his colossal but
factitious power. Besides, what is Guadeloupe, when
compared with so many other important colonies
which France has lost since the rupture of the peace
of Amiens ? It was Bonaparte alone who brought
this loss upon himself by his senseless obstinacy in
making war on Great Britain. No enlightened
Frenchman is ignorant, that the only hope which re-
mains to France of recovering her colonies, is founded
on the return of her Government to principles of
equity and moderation in Europe—to principles which
the usurper Bonaparte will never sincerely acknow-
ledge."
After thus tracing the views, the character, and
the policy of the Crown Prince, the author concludes
with the following portrait of Bonaparte :
"Vain, then, is your attempt to render the Crown
Prince odious in the eyes of the French, who can no
longer mistake the true author of their calamities,
nor the object which alone deserves their hatred. It
is the man who has accumulated on their guiltless
heads the hatred and the vengeance of nations. Who
could sketch, without some omission, the long career
of crimes by which he arrived at, and has mtio-
tained himself in power ? Bonaparte, born in Cor-
sica, was educated in a military school in France,
by the beneficence of the unfortunate Louis XVI. ;
he issued from it, to become a furious jacobin : his
first attempt to make himself notorious was a pam-
phlet in the most revolutionary strain, called le
Sayer de Avignon ; after the 9th Thermidor, lie was
marked, arrested, and deprived of his rank, as an
agent of Robespierre's : he flattered aad betrayed
all tht factions in turn, till he became their master;
he defiled the streets of Paris with the blood'of citi.
viins who claimed a constitutional right; he sacrificed
a fine army to his chimerical projects in Egypt
there he massacred his Turkish prisoners, poisoned,
his own sick, and deserted his army at the most et id-
cal moment : returned to Europe, he attempted, at
the head of his satellites, to dissolve the National
Representation ; and was at the point of failing in his
enterprise, had he not been saved by his brother's pre-
, sence of mind : arrived at power, he caused
Picbe-
gru to be strangled in a dungeon, by his Mamelucs ;
he proscribed Moreau ; he kidnapped the descendant
of the greatConde, on a hospitable. territory, and drag-
, ged him to punishment; the reign of terror was re-
stored in France ; instead of one Bastile which the
French had demolished, he erected eight ; all the
dungeons were filled with state-prisoners: suspicious
as Tiberius, and cruel as Nero, lie established in
France a system of universal espionnage, which absorbs
one half of the activity of all the public functionaries;
every liberal idea was proscribed, every independent
voice was smothered ; the silence of death hovered,
and still hovers over that country, inhabited by one of
the most enlightened and ingenious nations of Europe:
flattery alone is heard, and by a monstrous scaffol-
ding of lies it endeavours to conceal such a multipli-
city of horrors. His system of internal government
has ruined the prosperity of France ; his conduct in
foreign relations forms only a tissue of Machiavelian
perfidies.
" In the wars which his wild ambition has kindled
for the last ten years, all those veterans, the old de-
fenders of their country, have perished in succession;
the youth of France, torn from their peaceful occu-
pations, has been thinned, without pity ! If the glit-
ter of 'victories gained by French valour was for some
years able to produce illusion, that illusion is now de-
stroyed. Bonaparte, by abusing fortune, has at last
tired her out ; he now experiences reverses alone, and
his success was his only'met it. He has not one faith-
ul ally : all of them aspire to shake off the yoke of
vassalage, which imperious circumstances imposed,
and which he decorated with the name of alliance.
He has still satellites, whom fear for their own safety
attaches to his 'person : he has not one friend in the
whole world.

" The moment approaches, when this man, who
so long wound his way in darkness to a height at
which he seemed to tread under foot the human race,
is about to re-enter his original nothing. It is in vain
that he would confound his name and interests with
those of France: he has nothing in common with
her: it is only his usurpation and tyranny which have
hitherto connected the fate of France with his. The
Allies have loudly declared, that they do not make
war upon the French nation, but upon Bonaparte
alone. Amidst se many millions of men whom he
calls his subjects, the tyrant is insulated ; a general
amnesty is proclaimed for all those wt.o have served
him, provided they relinquish his party, and act
against him: he alone is proclaimed an outlaw against
humanity.
• Never did a mere august Senate preside over the
destinies of Europe than that which the Allied Sove-
reigns form at this day. Can it be supposed that the
'Prince Royal of Sweden would not raise his voice in
that Senate, in favour of his country, were the dis-
memberment or subjugation of France even hinted
at ? But France may obtain the most honourable
peace, the moment she chooses to set limits to her
despot's abuse of power.
• The Allies wish only to re-establish the tran-
quillity and independence of the civilised world. The
Prince Royal of Sweden cherishes the remembrance
of France ; he ceases not to pray for her happiness.
It is Bonaparte who has neither French blood, nor a
French heart. After the manner of the ancient
knights, the Prince Royal has nobly thrown down to
him his glove : let his adversary take it up if he dare;
let him come and terminate this great contest in
single combat : the event would not be doubtful—

ards and the Do Gorse:ins, against his adversary,
bloated with pride, but loaded with cruses, and his
forehead already rrowed with 'the thunderbolts of
celestial wrath. Methinks I see the shades of heroic
Kings of Sweden appear in the clouds, to be witnesses
of this )u of if Coos—methinks I see Gustavus
Adolphus dart a look of indignation at him who
profaned the name of the battle of Lateen, by saying
that it had been fought a second time by him for the
liberty of Germany. Nations, the spectators, would
applaud with enthusiasm, the generous enterprise of
their defender ; they would presage to him the vic-
tory : the monster would be thrown-to the earth, and
the world would resound with shouts of gladness."

The details in the Gazette of Saturday, relative to
the operations of the Austrian and English forces in
the Adriatic, u ill be rend with high interest. The
whole of the littorale—the ancient possessions of the
House Of Austria in Italy, hav,e now reverted to the
rightful owners—and, as we foresaw from the French
statements—BEaunatiNots has been defeated at all
'points. There is something peculiarly magnanimous
in the avowal of the Austrian General NLGUNT, that
it was to the co-operation of the British force under
Admiral FREENANTLE, he was almost entirely in.
debted for the success with which his exertio were
crowned. The circumstance of the prisoners taken
from the enemy exceeding in numbers the troops op.
posed to them, speaks most forcibly fi r the disposi-
tion of the Italian troops towards their French masters.
They must, in fact, have laid down their arms, on all
occasions.

Frankfort Papers to the 2d inst. have been received
since Saturday. They announce the determination
of the Allies to attach the Swiss to the grand Conti
nental league. In the event of the Cantons perse-
vering in their armed neutrality, or in other words,
in their alliance with BoNarmtne, a large Alliei
army will enter Switzerland, for the purpose of trying
of what metal their neutrality is composed. It is
probable, however, that, like others among the Allies,
the Swiss only wait for the appeirance of a hostile
force on their frontiers, as an excuse for making
common. cause.-

The German, inhabitants of France receive the
Allied armies with open arms. Nothing, in short,
can be more gratifying to every honest heart, than
the spirit with which the Allied cause is every where
supported by the inhabitants of every country sub-
jected to the sway of BONAPARTE.

Yesterday the Princess CHARLOTTE attended Di-
vine Service at the Chapel Royal, St. James's Pa-
lace, accompanied by the Duchess of LEEDS and
Miss KNIGHT. The Eatl Of LIVERPOOL and a nu-
merous assemblage of Nobility were also present.
The sermon was preached by Mr. MADAN. The an-
them was, " the Lord is Wing," composed by Dr.
ARNOLD, and sung by Messrs. NIELD, KNYVETT, and
CLARKE.
Saturday morning the Duke of YORK, after trans-
acting military business at York House, took a ride
to Windsor, to pay his weekly visit to the QUEENI
and his Royal Sisters, and afterwards went to Oat
lands to dine with the DccHEss.

Saturday morning the Hereditary Prince of
ORANGE was introduced to the PIUNCE REGFNT on
his arrival in England, and had a long interview with
his Royal Highness. Yesterday he dined with the
PRINCE REGENT ; there w.is a select party to meet
him. •

The Marquis of HUNTLEY was married on Satur-
day
last, at Bath, to Miss &tom, only daughter of
ALEXANDER BRODIE, Esq. of Arn Hall, N. B.
ROYAL HUNT.—The hounds threw off the first
time since the alteration of the hunt, with the acces-
sion of new hounds, at Maidenhead thicket, on Friday.
The stag was taken after a brisk run of two hours,
near Cranbourne. The new hounds have fulfilled
the expectation of the field of sportsmen, under the
management of Mr. SHARP, the huntsman, and are
considered a staunch pack. The hunt will assemble
on Monday, at Salt Hill, and on Friday at Ascot race
ground, at ten o'clock.

The Commons met on Saturday : but there being
only S 3 Members present, the SPEAKER adjourned
the House till this day.
Ministers, with a laudable desire to return the
compliment to the PRINCE ROYAL, for the attention
he has paid to his Majesty's Electoral Dominions in
Germany, have intimated to Marquis WELLINGTON a
wish that a marked protection should be afforded to
the town of Pau, the birthplace of his Royal High-
ness, should the British troops approach that favour-
ed part of the French territory.
A letter from San Jean de Luz, dated Nov. 29, says,
" The head quarters of the army are established here.
The only place on the left bank of the Nive, in the
possession of the enemy, is St. Jean Pie de Port,
where they have about five hundred men. Many
of the French inhabitants have continued in San Jean
de Luz, notwithstanding positive orders from their
Government to quit it ; and they have treated us not
as foes, but as friends. We have plenty of provisions.
The rains, until within these four or five days, have
been incessant, and the country on the shore of the
Adour is wholly under water ;—so that whatever
may have been the intention of the Commander in
Chief, as to a further progress into France, it cannot
for the present be fulfilled. The Army of Gallicia,
which has been so long in movement, has arrived at
I Medina del Pomar on the Ebro, and some strong de-
tachments from the Spanish forces, ban been sent in
the dictation of Catalonia.".
