Sir Joseph Books, on the. means of delivering Eu.
rope from the tteighbourhood of barbarians, and
of rendering up to civilization the northern parts of
Africa.
' It is believed that Congress will be engaged with
the means of 'merit% the general execution of the
principle agreed upon at Vienna, for the Abolition
of the Slave Trade.
The differences between Sweden and Denmark,
which are said to be submitted to the decision of
Congress, turn bn this point :—Sweden, in obtaining
by the Treaty of Kiel -the cession of Norway!
&Intern so important for Swedeo, and so talamitous
for Denmark, engaged to pay a part of the public
debt formerly contracted by Denmark and Norway
in common. This stipulation of the Treaty has not
yet been fulfilled. The Treaty is guaranteed by the
five Great Powers assembled at Aix-la.Chapelle,
either in person of the Sovereigns, or by their Am-
bassadors.
GENEVA, OCT. 9.—The Council of State of Fri-
burg was occupied on the '2d October with measures
for the execution of the decree recalling the Jesuits.
It has ordered copies of it to be addressed to the
Bishop, to the Professors of the College of Saint
Michel, to P. Sineo, Rector of the College of Val-
Isis, and to the General of the Order at Rome.
The Declaration given the 28th of September, on
the same Decree, by six Members of the Council of
State, produces the greatest sensation. It is signed
by the ancient Avoyer Werro, and five Councillors.
They there publicly declare, " That not only have
they bad no part in this determination, but that In
concert with the minority of the Grand Council,
they have displayed an immoveable constancy, and
the whole force of their reasoning powers, to over-
come a resolution so inconsiderate."
STRASSUROH, Ocr. 12.—Tbe public joy, excited
by the approaching evacuation of the French terri-
tory, does not in the least detract from the particular
esteem which the corps of the army now withdraw.
ing from our neighbourhood, and its worthy Chiefs,
have inspired towards them. During three years the
most rigorous discipline has ondeviatingly been main.

to, and If some disterbances bate taken place (cir.
comstances inseparable from all assemblages of step),
punishment has immediately followed. the offeeme
The Generals and officers have 'hewn the everted
delicacy in their intercourse with the French Autho-
rities. On every occasion, where happy aaniversa-
ries or bitter recollections called for eutertainments
or mogroings, they were seen identifying themselves
with the sentiments by which we were animated.—
At length, thanks to• their precautions, the burden
of the occupation ceased to intrude itself upon our
dwellings. This conduct carom; be misconceived,
and troops so worthy of praise, in leaving us such
gratiful recollections, will not, we are convinced, for.
got that they have been duly appreciated amongst us.
The period is now arrived when all nations, restored
to themselves, may reciprocally regard each other
with disinterested esteem.

the Author of all Good, and to thank him that the re-
spectable class 'of their brethren,' who cultivate tire
soil of the country, bate also attained the rights of
Citizens. •
The solemn Te Deum began after the arrival of his
Excellency the Governor,• toe Marqeie Patacci, and
never, probably,' was this hymn cheunted with more
feeling than by the persons assembled on this day, on
which effete 400,000 of their brethren were to regaio
the. rights.and dignity of men.
After the Te Deum, the Governor addressed the
assembly -in an appropriate speech, declaring the
Abolition of the Slavery of the Peasants, by the-De. •
cree of his Majesty, et she request of the Nobility,
and annooneing the Plan of the new Ordinance re-
lating to the Peasantry.
The Clergyman then ascended the pulpit, and held
a diseourse in German, in which he showed the points
of view in which the new Constitution of the Peasants
was to be considered, and the importauce.of the pre-
sent moment. He then addressed the Peasants in
Livonia'', announced to them the benefit given them
by the Emperor, saluted them as free men, and es.
hotted them to gratitude to the Emperor, love to their
late masters, and a proper use of their freedom, re-
consmending them to.purane the path of legal order
and tranquillity which each of them had now to take.
A solemn hymn concluded this memorable ceremony.
The Emperor, who had arrived here on his way-
to Ait.la-Chapelle, went, after Divine Service in the
church of 'the Holy Trinity,' to the Greek church,
amidst the acclamations of the People, and heard
To Deum performed; meantime the Sfobility,4the
Public Officers, and the Peasants who had assembled
in the chereh, went to. the Castle, whithet the Em-
peror repaired from• the church, and had. the Civil
Officers end the Nobility presented to him..
A scene then succeeded which represented the Ras.'
aim Sovereign in the fairest light, as the father of his
People, or, as the world in its infancy called Princes,
as ,the shepherd of his People. Ile caused the as
veiled Peasants to be brought before hint, 'and dis-
I coursed to them in person, ezplainiig what his good-
Doss had given them, a'nd,tkompper use of it. The,
eiarthy Deputy of ts country* fAttez Charles You

who graciously beard the rept/ of-tseer.af the Pea-
sants.

the Nobility of the province, partook of an elegant
entertainment in the Hall of the Equestrian Order,
