LONDON:

TIfintSDAY, NOVEMSVL 9, ISI S.

Private letters received by bye-boat from then each
coact, confirm the statements that the vies' of t^rror
and bloodshed still continues in various parts of
France. A desperate affray is said to have again
tassel place between the Prussians and French at
Roney, in which aletve forty person' lost their lives,
ten Prussians being killed and wounded, and up-
wards of thirty Frenchmen, according to the Dover
letters, having perished. Similar affrays are said to have
taken place in different parts, between the Manias's
and French, who seem to hate each other most cor-
dially ; hut these fracas are not suffered to be detailed
in the French Papers. It is also confirmed that the
permeations of the Protestants at Nismes and other
r,hers is prolonged, and that disorder and bloodshed
reign in France to a degree of %Ibidh the people in this
country are but tittles ware. This sufficiently accounts
for she recent marches and counter-marches of the Al-
lied forces in that unhappy country, and is a mournful
proof of the impolicy and imbecility of the syste,m
which has been adopted for preserving public tran-
quillity. Louts and the Allies had the means of
insuring peace to France, and security to its Go-
vernment, and consequently peace and security to
Europe; but these, in the wantonness of their pride,
they cast from them, and preferred, with their usual
infatuation, to rely on the instruments of coercion
and vengeance, at the sight of which every feeling
of nature is eronsled, and beats the tocsin of alarm.
The laws of Di: +co suit only the age of blood. Are.
we to believe that we live in an age when mankind
can only be taught the knowledge of good asel evil
by the sword, by pais:3 and penalties I that the hu-
manizing polity which civilization has so long and•to
earnestly recommended, and still recensmends to
Kings and Governments, is weakness,- and ntt" wis-
dom ? and that it k time to dispense-with all such,
ideas of 'literal and civil rights, avd Constitution,
and forms of government, as the collective wisdom of.
tostskitel may have instilled, and erabocii..d by Ow
most glorious and beneficial institutions ; and welcome
thaie days back again when no such keowlgdge end
