It is stated, from Vienna, that there is much I:
a new plot in favour of NAPOLEON, which eat
to Switzerland. If it be true that Lucti:m BO
PARTE is at Geneva, it is a more probable
position, that he has bad some connection
this plot in favour of his brother, than that
we see put forth by the disordered heads
hired railers, namely, that Lecr EN has quarrelled \
NAPOLEON and his new friends, and left them
disgust.

But, the chief point,and the chief article, to
we would direct attention, in order to show the
dalous misrepresentations which have heel, props,
I gated, and the real state of the popular mit.
France, are, the Northern Provinces of that Em,
and the interesting article of information relati
them, which we give in our columns of Fc
Intelligence. If a particle of attachment to
BouttcoN family, and any thing of the nature 0
disposition to aid their cause existed in any pet
France, we should hove expected to have seen
vigorously manifested in the present crisis
Normandy and Britanny, and the provinces
the North, " peculiarly Royalist ! !"--1
( a hat is t''o fact? These provinces have vr
ferny, and with enthusiasm, entered into a
federation to support, by arms, and with all
energies and means, the Government of
rozeoN, the Constitution, and the liberties
independence of the country, with the presort
of which the name of the Emperor is ieseptli
blended. The Confederation is composed of
elite of the generation born during the Revolt
and educated in the principles of freedom. The
men confederated for the conquest of liberty,
the young are now uniting, by the most IL
parts, for its preservation. The sentiments express,
ed in the Federative Compact of the citizens
Nantes, Rennes, &c. are inspiring, and breathe
turous spirit of devotion to the cause of um
independence and honour, which foreign Poveirs
in vaiet endeavour to pat dfewit with the sword,
Such a spirit is unconquerable, and may, if
pelled to expand into activity, kindle a blue
may light Monarchs to their doom !

Mr. WHITBREAD, for speaking his sentiments
becomes an Englishman on the approaching ur
and unnecessary war, has drawn on himself the
sure of the Courier. Our Ministerial brother

" involved sentences." Alas ! we apprehend

studied the Courier more attentively, and he
have there seen the French Emperor called a tiger
fiend, and every thing horrible, all "according I(
rules of Grammar;" he might then have learnt of
mach more consequence prosody is than either
ptiety or prudence ; we hope, however, that
spite of the sycoph tots who make such an m
about violated syntax, Mr. W., of whom the ,
try ought to be proud, will still protest agal
our going to war, in violation of every '
cipie of common sense and self-preservation.
One remark in the Courier is, however, most
quisite. Will it be believed that Lord CAsmEct
is complimented on " his deep, hiller, and just
buke of the conduct of Oppositilmi ?" Really,
wag had better be careful. A deep, bitter, and
rebuke from Lord CAST LER Elfill !! ! Mercy at
our sides absolutely ache oath laughing at the

well known, and we Hill be bound for it he never

semi icy be a mark of depth. As to his "just rebi

ship's political conduct entitles him to rebuke
body. Is it his former polity in Ireland, or his reri
Diplomacy at the Cuiteress ? Is it his seat-seh'
Is it his patriotism ? The Courier must have ilk,
ed to be jocular; and, as a joke, the thing is
eitoogh. " A deep. bitter, and jest rebuke"
