THE 'STATESMAN.

PROPONITI TYNAN.

LONDON : .
movnAr, SEPTEMIZEI 18.

Or the result of the conferences at zlitenburgh,
we are )et uncertain, although foreigu Papers of a
date so recent as the 7th inst. will be found in a
suhstquent column of our Paper. The protrac-
tion of the negotiation we arc inclined to view as
favourable with respect to Austria. The European
possesf.itois of the Gratul Seignior, to us, appear
the most probable subject of discussion, by which
the cut:elusion of peace has been retarded. That
this vent has taken place, it wig be seen is
reported as usual—but the silence of the bat-
teries at Boulogne is decisively against that
event. The dethronement of the King of Saxouy
appears improbable, absurd, and incrcdibk.
For what, in she midst of the Negutiation
with Austria is NAPOLEON so foolish, or so
confidcntly desperate, as to renouuee an Ally
from whom, in the late contest, be has re.
ceirs.l assistance so efficient ?
,Ths consequence
would necessarily be a diminution of his own
force, with a proportionate accession to that of
Austria. The Wpimg of SAXONY is literally the
creature of NAPOLEON) and we have nut seen
the smiAlmtest realon to doubt the sincerity—
crii4iniy not the efficiency of his co-operation.
As to his having manifested a disposition to
disloyalty, in consequence of 'the allegtxl ex-
communication of the Puns—it is, we think,
unworthy of attention. A report of the rup-
ture of the Armistice accompanies that of
peace tetween France and Austria—and the sick.
'less of NAPOLEON at Vicuna is repeated—but
from the Journals of the Continent, except so far
as regards Ryder' documents, we have almost as
little correct information as (ruin those of Eng.
lam!—and that, Con knows, is little eneugh—
falsehood ald invention, nineteen times out of
twenty, ride triumphaut over tr4th in the Emig.
lish Editors, who. imitate Young Wildin; in The
Citizen, in their love of fiction and embaishment.
'Possibly the sickness of NAPOLEON may turn out
to be just as true as his madness after the battle of
Aspern. For ourt,own parts, we believe nothing
that is reported, unless it is supported by7probu-
bility, or by official documents, and even then,
cum grano salis, with great allowance. From
the lalainous matter of The Past, the hark.
quip Courier, false and perfidiuiti'as fop, change-
able as the Castellon, venal as Shsiock, and dull
as monotony can make it, we usually find the
safest course in drawing conclusions directly op-
posite to their assertions, and, in so doing, we
have generally found that we have reached the
truth.

M I NISTERS have at length undertaken an Expe.
dition upon precautionary principles—the fleet of
transports conveying reinforcements to Lisbon, is
accompanied by another fleet—of empty trans-
ports—so that the Viscount of TA LA VERA may,
in the event of his once more advancing, be en.
abled to take tip *final position by evacuating the
Poninstila altogether, should he deem the Inking
up such a position expedient. Ferrol and Corun-
a& are probably ere this in the baud. of the
" cursed Souvr"...and the Viscount may possibly
yet be with us in time to assist at the celebration
of the Jubilee of the Consinercial
where he might be seated between the Civic De-
ENES and the modern Cifek:so, while some
Ttstartt►.rs should sing—
•" Twas at the ciAr (ran for Damns woo,

The change of Ministers proceeds slowly—and
on the 'object of the new Cabinet, secrecy so im-
_
penetrable is observed, u to induce many people
pew to believe Oast the whole set are determined
$. stick by their places. We are of a different
