The reason open"y assigned why Mcn.tT was not
finally recognized by the Allied Sovereigns, is lint a
little curious, considering the ailsantage his ticachery
to NAPOLEON had been of to the cause of ad !fort:es-0
tome of which seem going to decoy.—lt is this:
The branches of the II of [lot:linos declared

Kings of EIIANCE, SPAIN. arid :;ICILY declared bum
unfit to reign, and a public enemy, and refused to
have any thing to do with him, except that of piiliP4
to drive him from his Throue. In vaitt did Muatr
address Congress collectively and England
vidually ; in vain did he tell them he was compelled
to arm in his own defence—his addresses were treated
with contempt, and his arming with reproof; and,
if NAToLeoN had nut returned, he must either have
surrendered up his Crown, or have held it of Austria
as a feudal fief. The favourable moment arrived,
he seized it by the forelock—he buckled on Ids ar-
mour —cast his fortunes into the field of combat —ad-
dressed the Italians in the impassioned larigoi!ge of
liberty—and is now giving the Austriansau eat nest
of his views.
Another charge against Mon AT is, his wishing to
imitate his beilers by an attempt to etilaige his do-
minions, and this too at the expense of the Holy
ther, whose political existence is stst• d ay Austria
to be "of the highest importance." It k true,
FRANcIs, that the political existence of the' Pope most
be considered by you and the English Ministry. as of
" the highest importance," or why hare such torrents
of German, Spanish, Portuguese, and British 1,10,4
been shed for the restoration of him, and that dread•
ful train cf stultifying, horrific, and secretly operating
powec, which, during a thousand years, has blasted
the happiness of a great portion of the earth's popu,
lation ? But, thanks to Providence, the first moment
of interest after the overthrow of the Bototayes in
France-has been marked by the second, an.l,we hope,
the final 'overthrow of the POPE; and every liberal
mind must wish, that it may be the precurser of
the downfal of every throne that supports the Ineui-
aitiou.

Carlisle has followed the spirited example of Lon.
don in petitioning against thr renewnl of war, on no
oilier grounds than that BONAPARTE is in possession
of the throne of France—and on other topics con-
nected with the national welfare.

• The Redwing sloop of war, of 10 guns, Captain

dayat Portsmouth, in '26 days from St. Thomas's.—
Strife!, in with a transport, which told her that war
was declared, and that the coasts were lined ssitts
cruizers looking out for privateers. The Redwing
afterwards fell in with a French vessel, and.capturyd
her ; she took the Frenchmen out, put her crew on
board, and sent her into Plymouth.
On Wednesday morning, about two eclock, as
the watchman was going his rounds in Winfield-

alarm, anal the inhabitants lost no time In rendering
every assistance in their power. Having learned !tint
three men and a boy slept on the premises, they burst
open the doors and brought them out nt ter) great
risk. In less than two hours the premises were to-
tally consumed, with all the property, except sev..ll
hogsheads of refined sugar, and about as many bar-
rels of molasses. We are happy to state no lives
were lost.
