ORIGINAL CORRESPONDENCE."

PAO., N0v.27, Mi.
The Treaty of Peace was read the other day to the
• Chambers, and yesterday it was cried about the
streets. " Peace, l'earei Peace—the Treaty ot. Peace
for a penny—Peace, Peace, Peace!" On looking it
over, It appears such an irregular, inconsistent jum-
Gle, of Articles, that I cannot help thinking that Lord
ICSATUtsAoit must have had a great hand in it,
though, on second thought, it is not likely, because
Oat saisioot anomaly (for I ,kiwi. not *hat to

call him, except the make-weight of Sir COARLIEJI 1
Seto/Aar, and that he would not like) does not an.
derstand French or Latin. Though it has been so
long,in hand, like our Treaty with America, it leaves
many important points to be settled by Commis.
aiouers, and does.not affect to dissemble the instead.
lity of the Throne of the Bovaaons. All this,
however, you will have already discovered in it.
...--btTho French appear to be satisfied with it,
for either thrir national pride slumbers. or is
ipslioce, j apprehend only the former, but tiros
will show. One part of the Treaty raises a very
unespected question, interesting to all Europe—it
eetteerns r‘hal Nair. The lire of this greet hero
sterns destined to he otitis rad by the miraculous in.
tarpesition of Providence tensing the tour., of emits
in his favour. In the first place, Mr. BEILSTIA,
his Counsel, established the illegality of the Mili-
tary Tribunal appointed to try him. secondly, he
showed that even the Chamber of Peers were int Vi.
potent under the particular circumstances. This
produced a delay of woo days. These objections
being ovor.reled, be demanded the hearing of wit.
nesse. in his favour, which being granted, an ad-
joarnwsent to the 4th of December took place. In
lb* interim, the Treaty of Peace is published, and
Marshal Nay is louger a subject of France, but
Prussia!
The Marshal was born at Sarre-Louis, which town,
by the Treaty of Peace signed on the 10th instant, is
declared to be out of the limits of the French fron-
tiers.
From this case the following questions arise :
.I. In the cession of territory, what are the rights
acquired by the new Sovereign ?
11. Can the new Sovereign demand from the late
Sovereign the return of all persons from his service,
who, from being born in the ceded territory, became
the subjects of the new Sovereign ?
. 111. Does the dignity of Marshal of France alter
the question ?
IV". Is Marshal NET, after the cession of his
natal place, Sarre-Louis, to Prussia, entitled to the
prisileges of a French subject ?
V. If he be net, is he still a Peer of France, and
subject tithe jurisdiction of the Chamber of Peers,
or to any other, and what French Tribunal ?
lit. By the law of nations, the rights acquired by
the new Sovereign, commencing from the date of
cession, are equally extensive with those over any
pert of his hereditary states, the new becoming in.,
inaptly an integral part of the old. He can impose'

taps, levy contributions, command the personal
millet+ of the inhabitints in hi• armies, and cau
legally punish, as an act of high treason,
.the military

service of.ny of his new subjects under any .
Power. '
2d. The cession of territory does not merely Imply
so many houses and so many acres of land, hot the
whole population, whether born there, or having:lc-
quired the rights and privileges of citizenship; there.,
fore the King of PnUISIA has a right to claim Maishei

alter the question; it fa merely a title, and' milder
