thority and the power Of the Allies might
be br;ught TO act with convenience and
decision, as well as with prompt and Ger
tain effect to- the dissolution or destruction
OF the refractory remnant. "A paragraph
n tic Journal de Paris, mentions move
ment of tine main body from the Loire to-
wards the mountains of Auvergne, whittier
its baggage and cannon had already pro.
ceeded. This movement appears obvious
ly TO have in view the occupation of a
stronger position, and more formidable
attitude of defence. The treaty probably
is delayed until Lord Castlereagh obtains
a'viccs on the subject from his government.
The state of France is so very unsettled,
that it has considerably delayed the ar
rangement of a general pacihcation. The
French army is said to be recognizing.
This. we imagined, would imply the dis
banding the old army, and arranging a
military composition of materials totally
differing from the stubborn adherents of
Bonaparte, commanded by officers who
proved themselves traitors TO the King.
The Official Gazette contains a circular
letter from Ecu he, Duke Of Otranto, the
| Minister General Of Police. to the Pre- c S
| OF the Departments of the Kingdom, eIjo'n-
| ing them TO promote union and concord, OBJ
| ivion of all factious views and resentmcnts,
and universal attachment TO the king. 1t is
in fact a full exposition of the policy OF the
| Government of France, rs well as that
which is supposed to actuate the Allied
Sovereigns. Louis evidently anticipates
heavy exactions on the pare of the Allies,
and he feels, according to the circular let
ter OF Fouche that it is only by an imposing
force of an united people that he can OPP
pose them with success This is evident
| ly a threat to the confedsrated sovcreigns
but the letter contains no menace whatever
against freeboo. ers, or dsafected army
and loyal commanders. The affairs 81
France are in a very embarrassing state,
and the King is placed in a situation of great
perplexty.
Rapp, who commanded at Strasburgh,
has concluded an armistice, for ten days
with the Austrans, as a prelude, no doubt.
to his Ultimate submission. Excelmans is
the only general IN the field who seems tc
hold cut, but as his force is considerably
reduced, this creature of Murat's will make
a virtue ofnecessty, in the same manner

willingness TO receive the command of the

DUKE OF CUMBERLAND.

We have read the concluding discussions
on the modest demand of his royal high
ness the Duke Of Cumberland, Chancellor
OF the University Of Dublin, for an accession
OF 6000I. year to his income on his MARI
age, with some interest, but we confess our
total inability of understanding them and
the obscurity in which the peakers are

speaking ofhis royal hlghness has been rem
dered still more dense by rejecting on the
conduct of that illustrious person.

the great campo ga, which terminated at
the battle Of LeipSiC, Che royal duke, in
a great hurry, visited the continent. Eng
land and Europe expected that the English
prince was about TO assume a comment.

Louis -8PII'8 Letter 10 The lilies.
On the arrival of the Factcr, at til.
port, It became n current report, that cnc
Other passengers had London paper con
tanning letter from the Nirg cf France
TO the Allies, of q nature which seemed a.
gain to threaten the rspose Of EGrcpe. A.
though We had received the pery {dtesk pa-
pers by this arrival and made copious ex-
tracts therciron, without meeting with the
reported letter, W. used all diligence to Oh
tam perusal Of this important letter; bu.
Mr.. EdlnoDson, the reported bearer Of il,
had left the city for Baltimore. Il All. ars
since that the Baltimore Editors have re-
ceived London papers to the 9Th August,
by the F4ctor but the extracts which
they fdrnish contain nothing on the sub
jet we mere allure TO- We, therefore,
conceive that no letter OF this description
has been received in this country. We
state this in answer to the numerous Ell
quiries which have been made on this sub
jeot
Itisno doubt true that the people of
France, conquered as they have seen Sc
cond tine in the small period Of year, will
not tamely acquiesce in Il government die
tated to them by the allied powers. Ard
1t isnot improbable that the restored Louis,
who now receives his sccptre from the
hands ofthe vanquishers of his country may
entertain some doubts as to the tenure by
which he holds it. But 1t is not ct all re-
oonclleablc to the existing state of things or
to common sense in the very infancy of his
restoration, and surrounded as he is by the
forces Of the Allies that he should venture
to make demands Of, or issue threats against
the powers who have so recently placed
him on the throne Of his predecessors.

The plain of Waterloo is magnificent
scene and prize fighting ground worthy
of such battle. The position OF the French
was woody, that of the Allies chiefly CO.
vered with grain. Rye was the prevailing
species. 1tgrows so high, that a Scotch
regiment, in advancing through field of
1t on the 10th, was nearly cut to pieces,
without seeing an enemy. The French OBJ
served its approach by the tops Of its mus
kets shining IN the corn and took their aim
accordingly, while our troops could only
fire at random. All accounts agree in the
great advantage that the French cuiras-
sers derived from their armour. Their
swords were three inches longer than any
used by the allies, and in close action the
cuts of our sgbres did no execution EXCEPT
they fortunately came across the neck Cf
the enemy. The latter also feeling them
selves secure in their armour advanced de-
liberately and steadily, until they came
within about twenty yards of our ranks, as
muskCt ball could not penetrate their cui-
raises at a great distance. The cuirass,
however, was attended with one disadvan-
ta5e the wearer, in Close action cannot

frightful appearance, particularly the Life
Guards, from the splashiug of the mud, in

They called them the Red Lions. Among
the effective incidents of the day is mention
ed a hu1Yuh, given by an Irish regiment in
the act of charging. The shock struck ter

With every possible diligence and care
that could be used, manv of the wounded
lay two days upon the field Of battle before
their wounds were dressed and they could
DC removel. The preference was, of
course, given to our gallant heroes, and a
pcremptory order was issued to that effect.
M my days after the battle the fields of
Waterloo continued to present great num-
bers ofpoor persons, particularly females,
seeking for plumber. Every rag was
searched, in expectation it could produce
gold or silver lace or money. Among the
most common spoils were the eagles worn
on the fronts of the caps CT some of the
French regiments. These, when broken
of, were sold at Brussels for about two
francs each. Among the French killed
and wounded, were observed an immense
number If letters, from friends, rela.
uvcs and lovers, VINO have to lament their
loss.
Fiennes Trotman, Esq. of Sison House,
Gloucestershire, has received a letter from
his nephew, Lieut.. Col. Miller, of the In
niskillen Dragons, dated from Brussels,
stating thathe had received three 6ayonet
wounds in the charge made by the brigade
under Lord Ponsonby but lie did not quit
the field til a CRATE shot entered his left
thigh, broke the bone. passed through the
seat, and lodged in the right thigh. So
scarce were the means Il proCu' ing iittcrs
