FRENCH PAPERS.

•SOK rile MILK. DAM) WIDXZIMIAT, TM 7.
PARIS, PD. 6.
The Madrid Gantt* of the 25th of January contains
a decree of the Princess Regent of Portugal, ordering
the Minister of War to dismiss from the Portuguese
army all the Spaniards serving in it.
If the writers in the Journals have desired to furnish
arguments in favour of the law which has just been
brought forward for the regulation of the press, they
have succeeded beyond their hopes. Never were per.
sonalities and defamation resorted to with more impu.
deuce and efficrntery. Dubtless, they call by the name
of courage an audacity which is the more easy, as they
are sensible that they ate insults which come from too
mean e, source to be punished by legal proceedings.—
But let us leave the authors of these turpitudes to re-
joice in an impunity which they may one day have rea-
son bitterly to deplore. The Chambers read; and to
such of their members as might believe that the press
might be freed from laws against its excesses, it will be
sufficient to say, look at the Uonstitutioaxel and the
Courrier of yesterday ; look at the Journal des Debats
of to-ddy.

TUX TIM MOM OP TI MM; 1/111. 6.
PARIS, Fra. S.
We were the first to announce the pretensions of
Austria respecting the titles of our Dukes and Marshals:
Use Etoile contradicted us, and a few days afterwards
was obliged to confess the whole in the report of the
speeches in the Chamber. We can state that the Mar-
shal Duke of Ragusa, and the Duchess of Istria, caused
, the serious discussion which has just arisen. The Duke
of Ragusa, at the time of the regulation cf his endow-
ment on Austria, signed his name merely Duc de Mar-
moot. and the Duchess of Istria, on the same occasion,
signed for her son, the Due de Bessieres. Austria,
doubtless, thought it might act in consequence of these
two examples, of which we refrain from giving any
opinion. This act of the Duchess de Bessieres may be
one day disavowed by her son; but as for the Duk le
Marmont, the case is different.
The Nureveltatrz Corresposickat repents on the autho.
- ray of letters horn Vienna, that the arrival of the Mar-
quis de Ribeaupierte at Jassy has been a thunder-clip
•to the friends of the Greeks. They had flattered them-
selves that a great misunderstanding would have di-
vided the Eatopesn Powers with respect to Greece, and
th t open war, which they supposed would break out
relatively to this question, between the Cabinets of St.
James's and Russia, would have made the latter resolve
to take up arms for the Greeks, its fellow Christians ;
whereas the departure of M. de Ribeaupierre for Con.
stantinople has furnished an incontestable proof that all
the Powers are agreed on this point. It is also known,
adds she Correspeackat. that Mr. Canning has given to
enunt Lieven entire satisfaction relative to s me ezpres-
sons which dropped from him in his extempore speech
in the House of Commohs.
We read the following paragraph in a letter from
Madrid :—" The stay of Silveira, in Castile, has not
bren of long duration; for after having replenished
their powder waggons with good ammunition, and pro-1
sided themselves with money, they have again entered
Portugal, and it is even affirmed that they have retaken
Almeida. There must be some truth in all this, for
M. Lamb, the English Ambassador, is preparing to
depart."

CLOY lIIIC

•r TUMULT.

Opr letters from Rome announce that the defeat of
the Portuguese rebels has only had the effect of making
their friends in the Secret College redouble their seal.
In one of the Ap stolic meetings held at Rome on
the evening of the Sd of January, it was resolved to
dispatch ciiculars in every direction for the collection
of money from all the monasteries and Catholic congte-
gat ons, in order to send it to Spain. Accordingly, the
A; ostolics say, it is not money which is wanting at the
Court of Spain; what Ferdinand wants are arms and
resolntioc.

Hi. lloliness has ordered the presents usually given
to the Austrian Commanders, on their passing by the
' way of to be made in advance.
M. des Gennattes, the Austrian Charge drs Affaires,
has notified officially to the Secretary of State, that the
Au•trian atmy, which is at last to leave the kingdom of
Naples, will soon pass through the Pap4l territory
Major Zamponi, who supplies the Austrian tt crops with
rovis on s, is on peimanent duty. Every thing is is

Velutti to establish magazitAs.

We are extremely sorry to learn, that the accounts
from Brighton of Mr. Secretary CANNINCi'S health are
unfavourable. His indisposition is so severe. that he
is confined -to his bed, and is unable to attend to any
public business.

We have received in due course the Paris Papers of
Tuesday and Wednesday, but they contain only loose
reports or vague statements respecting the affairs of the
Peninsula. As the Realer, however, continue to improve,
it may be reasonably inferred that the latest authentic
accounts present a gratifying picture of the relations
between Spain and Portugal.
The Private Letters received this morning from Paris
state that the French Budget is to appear in two or
three days, sad that it is very favourable.

We have received this morning Dutch Papers to the
7th, and Hamburg!) to the 3d inst. containing intelli-
gence from St. Petersburgh to the 20th, from Vienna to
the 25th, and from Berlin to the 31st ult. The political
news, however, is not of the slightest interest ; and every
thing indicates the existence of profound repose in every
part of the Continent, with the exception of the Penin-
sula, as well as the most perfect harmony between the
different Cab'nets. Our armed interposition in favour
of Poring 1, which a few years ago would have agitated
all Europe, has not produced at preserix so much as a
ruffle on its political waters ; and it is therefore to be
inferred that the Holy Alliance is morally de-
funct, and that the spirit of the age, re-invigorated
by the example and countenance of the British Cabinet,
has achieved a complete triumph over that insolent
league. From the preponderating, and at the same
time beneficial influence, which Great Britain exercises
at this moment, a great lesion for the guidance of I uture
Statesmen may be obtaioed ; f..r it is only necessary to
observe the same liberal principles, in order to retain
our present supremacy; whcreas this country would
inevitably become a Power of the second rank, should
she once abandcn them. Should she ever renounce the
principles upon which her present rolicy is based, shej

would not only be degraded abroad, but would be con-
verted into a sink of vice, misery, and distraction at
home. By merely conforming in her foreign relations
to the manly spirit of her institutions, she is at this
moment supreme arbitress between natiansi pnd to
obtain this rank, it was only necessary on her part, to
employ moral means, without making the slightest ad-
dition to her ordinary expenditure, or to her peace

What a lesson for future Statesmen !

These papers do not contain a single allusion to the
remonstrances, said to have been addressed by the
Rassian Government to ours, respecting the wholesome
and seasonable truths proclaimed by Mr. Secretary
Cameo, in the memorable debve on the Kisa's
Message. We never gave the slightest credit to this
on•da in the first place; and we ate firmly persuaded in
the next, that, if it were true, a smart rap over the
knuckles would be the only reply to such impertinent
interference. We should be fallen, indeed, if a foreign
Power could venture with impunity to make a general
observation in the course of our Parliamentary proceed-
, .
ins, the subject of a formal complaint. Had the
Russian Government been particularly alluded to, or bad
its subjects been represented as discontented, this might
have altered the ca :.e ; but as no such allusion or repre-
sentation took place, a call for explanation would be
insolent in the extreme, and treated as such. We repeat,
therefore, that we do not attach the slightest credit to
the rumour.

The intense agitation which has been created in Paris,
by the attempt of M. D'APPONT, the Austrian Ambas-
sador. to debaptise the military Dukes of BOOVAPA ores
creation, does not appear to have been known at Vienna
at the date in these Papers. To the comments which
have appeared in the French Papers on this subject, a
reply will no doubt be given by the Austria's Observer;
and we know very little of the Court of Vienna, if the in-
sultin tone of the former be not repaid with usury.—
Without pretending to decide on the political eve-
diency of the measure, we do not for a moment call in
question the right which the Austrian Government has
exercised. Let us make the case our own, and we shall
then place the proceeding in a clearer point of view.
Let us suppose, for example, that a French army had,
in the course of tbat memorable contest, overrun Ire-
land, and that the late Ruler of France had taken occa-
sion, from this circumstance, to confer upon one of the
Generals, who should have signalised himself in the_
expedition, the title of Count, or Earl, of Munster; to

another that of Earl of Dublin t to a third that of Duke
of Ulster ;—let us suppose that be had made these inso-
lent creations, and how would we feel on the occasion ?
We should experience exactly the same sensations
u the Austrians, and should, like them, refuse to
recognise titles that were intended to perpetuate our
reverses. As to the menaces in which the French jour.
nals have been pleased to indulge, and particularly the
tosavakthosa anuriecal asp NJ.
firm belief that Austria will treat them with derision, and
we futher opine thatahe may do so. with the most per-
fect security. This vapouring is out of place and lesson,
as the Great Nation would find, were it to assume its
sed airs, for the Austrian troops are fully as good as
their own, and the Generals as 'good, if not better.—
Really it is time that the French should divest them-
selves of this affectation of superior military prowess.
Authentic accounts respecting the Waterloo, have
been received at last, which state, that she was in the
roads of Heligoland on the 27th ult. where she had
arrived two days before in poi condition. Every
attempt, however, to communicate with her has hitherto
proved iaeffectual, inconsequence of the great quantity
of ice on the Dutch coast. We also learn from the
Dutch papers, that the Flora, Captain LIMING, has
arrived at Antwerp from Batavia, where she sailed on
the 90th September. The letters she has brought from
Java state, that perfect tranquillity prevailed in the
district of Golo, and that the old SULTAN was rein-
stated in his authority at Djocjo, and that be had 2,000
good troops under his command.
Accounts in the same Papers from Arnheim,Natmsr,
and other places, state the Rhine and Waal to be full of
drift ice, and, in some places, to be entirely frozen
over.—Advises from Berlin of the 28th ultimo an-
nounce an irruption of the Russians into that ca-
pital; but it appears to have produced no conster-
nation, which can only be accounted for by the small
number of the invaders, who amount only to twenty
men, selected from different regiments, chiefly of the
Imperial Guard. However, they have promised to con-
duct themselves peaceably,on condition of being initiated
in the mysteries of the Prussian exercise. This condition
has been accepted, and the detachment, which consists of
0 fficer ',subalterns, and privates, has even been presented
to his Pr ussian Majesty. The news from Stockholm is of
the 29d ult. at which time the KING had not yet taken
kis departure for Norway. It mentions the following cir-
cumstance :—A postmaster at Wisby, in Gothland, of
the name of Rek, having died lately, there were found
among his effects above six hundred letters, some con-
taining money, partly from Sweden, partly from foreign
countries, and some even put in Wisby itself, to be sent
abroad: some of these letters have been lying there since
1796, and a very considerable number since 1804. A list
of them is being made by the Magistrates at Wisby ; the
list of the registered letters, and those containing
money, to the number of SO, has already been published
in one of the Swedish newspapers.
