'wet work on the surface of the earth, our soil is extensive
' gh and fertile enough to suffice tor the wants of its
inhabitants; and France, after the long and uumerctos
adamities she has suffered, snows too well the value of
the peace and internal tranquillity which she now enjoys,
not to feel the strongest wish to scatter far from her all
ment of revolt or disorder. Subjecied for many Te ars
to the Mercy of the wicked genius of revolution, she has
lenitth succeeded itifernering its hands, and she ought
to have the power of menacing and of puni,hiog who`
ever shall attempt to unloose them. This additional

Twelve years have scarcely elapsed since the pacifica-
tion of Europe. There was then a unanimoes resolution
id the councils of nations, to waicb in common ()netlike
maintenance of order and general tranquillity,
.whieb
had been restored be so great sacrifices. The people
Were keary of agitation and suffering. Kings we:*
scarcely assured upon their thrones, which had mitered
beneath them so often, and both aspired to unthirg more
but A permanent enjoyment of the repose which they had
so I fig cresired.One fear dhly occu plied all minds—the fear
of teeing their ca:m anew troubled, in which thxrcould
not feel absolute confidence,so long had been the tftenril
that preceded. England was considered a; the Poser
which had most contributed-to bring about that happy
state of things,- by the wisdom of its councils and its
perseverance. Continental Europe, so icing trodden
under and oppre.sed, paid homage to it; and France
herself, loved to believe that she owed to' it the more
speedy restoration of her cherished race of Kings.—
England enjoyed its success, and applauded itself in its
firmness and constancy. For several years we saw it oc-
'copied in healing those woonds which so length ned es
struggle had not failed to cause. Even England itself had
Ito defend Its power against popular commotions, and

saw hoisted in its fields those flags and e4ltis under
which France had been oierturned and chcimited. At
that period doubtless, those who governed England,
thought not of menacing. the Continent with the fer-
ments of fresh revolutions. But a few peen rolled away,
a fewness died, or disappeared from the political scent,
and all of a sudden, we hear statesmen placed in the mast
eminent station, professing doctrines the most dangerous,
and supporting maxims the most strange. They pre-
tend to rely on the rights of nations, while announcing
their resolution to inoculate the germ of revolution upon
all states which choose to assume a position opposed to
England. In truth, between a thought of this kind and
that of carrying the actual pestilence among their neigh-
bours, there is so slender a distinction that it is not
worth while to stop in so fair X way. Trim, too, is a
terrible—an alarming power—a erne among human'
evils:. Albion! Albion I fermerlY wisdom presided over
thy Councils, but what is the• Divinity that presides

A letter from St. Petersbnrgh, of the 4th of 'intY,
answers, by the following passage, the reproaches which
have been excited by the delay of the great Powers in
strewing any interest in favour of the unfortunate Greek
nation:—" Our Sovereign was desirous of adopting
more sieedy measures to check the effusion of blood,
but some other Powers appear to have impeded his in-
tentions."
