FROM Coo6etf's Veekfy Rcgisfer Of ltzdu !.
As TO the state of opinions in America. it
appears, that having heard of the low state
OF sNapoleon's affairs, the people there were
counting with confidence on an immediate
peace. They had not then heard of the ac-
tual dethronement of Napoleon, and of the
consequent language of our public prints,
accompanied with statements relative to
troops Immediately to be sent otto Amcri-
ca. What effect these will produce in the
minds of the people. and of the government
there, know not !; but, SO slowly do they
generally move, 1t is not probable, that the
troops will meet with any thing like an ar
my to oppose them. The Americans have
no experienced officers. they have no dis
.cipline. they will, too, I dare say, think,
that because they beat England in the last
war, they can dot again, and much easier,
having now five times as numerous a popu.
lation. But, in the first place. they will not
have to contend against such generals a.
they had to Contend against before, nor
such officers and soldiers. They will. if
our troops really shouldland in their country.
have to contend with those who have de-
feated French armies with skill Of all sorts !:
experience in the men as well az the off.
GERS with courage, discipline, and the hab-
it of victory. All these will require some.
thing more than the Americans have vet
thought of. Then, in the last war, America
had three great maritime powers on her
side, and one power to send her aid in Off.
GERS and men. DO they now look for assis-.
lance from the friendship of Ferdinand, or
of Lewis. or Of the sovereign prince of the u.
nited Netherlands Which of the tn rec do
they intend to apply to. Or, do they ex.
pect that the emperor Of Russia, who is
shortly to come on visit to Engiand, will,
in order to preserve their liberties, send an
army of Cossacks to their assistance round
