PRrrr Od• nay, it is only by the patriotism of their people that the countries they govern, exhausted by a rapacious and merci less foe, have afforded them the means of resistance. The generous spirit of enthusiasm which makes the patriotic Ger mans endure now with alacrity privations and hardships of every kind, if once disappointed, could not he kindled again, and might even recoil on the Sovereigns themselves, who would thus have once more deserted their subjects. From all this, it becomes evident, that on the part of o.e Allies no peace is probable, or even possible, until ihe ene my accepts the very moderate conditions proposed to him as their ultimatum. These cond . tinns, it has been stated, were the evacuation of all the fortresses in Germany, tie di.soluti.dr i f the Con feieration of the Rhine, and the with awing of the French troops to the other side sf that river ; in a wo. d, the liberty of Germany. But those propos:!'s have been contemptlir.tisly eluded, or strondy rejected by BOON APA RT E Austria de clares, that " she has had ecourse r.. aims trly ause peace was impossible," and the PRINCE ROYAL of SWEDEN adds, that " BCON AP ART V. would accept of no peace unless Eu rope lay prostrate at b s feet." Thus the parties are fel:ly at issue, the one unable, the other unwitling to recede, and uo compromise seems to be within the scope ..f It had beefs, indeed, expected by some, that the unusual disasters which &lONA P A RT E's arms have ex pe: fenced, since the renewiil of hostilities, would have made him relent ; but men who entertained that opinion little knew the personal fears which haunt the mind of that man, obdurate and cal. bons to every thing else, lle feels confident that his tyranny over Europe is the only safeguard of his power in France ; he acts on that conviction, and we lave stated before the rounds on which we think he views the subject in its proper light. Baited on all sides by his persevering enemies, he faces about every where with the restless activity of despair, trust ing that chance, intrigue, or what he calls his fortune, may furnish him an occasion of recovering his wonted superiority. Tied to the stake he can neither Hy noradvance ; his fet ocity is even increased by the resistance he experiences, and be crows louder in asserting his pretended rights in proportion a, his power is straitened and his authority disputed. Since Austria has declared that the usurpation of the these To ns, " in an unlucky moment" was the prin , ipie and immediate cause of the present war, he has treated with additions: ,e -verity the relelliest inhabitants of those new ..ep , riiin ts and even in the very last ennirriunicatio , :s from F avec, t e necessity of enforcing the Continental System at t;le a x t .c e of whatever is dear to Frenchmen, is insi ted upon mith ~d-, , ditional acrimony.

Unyielding sternness one band, and the enthusiasm of natiocal independ ence on the other, have once more disappointed the hopes of suffering humanity. Although we do not thialc that the present state of the war ever justified any sanguine expectation of that desirable event taking place immediately, yet we shall briefly examine how far it is possible, in the si tuation of the Belligerent Powers, to procure a safe and lasting peace, such as might heal the wounds which a warfare of unexampled duration and barbarity has inflicted on Eu rope. The Allies, united by a sense of common danger, are at last recovered from an illusion which has lasted twenty years. They now see that there is ►►o safety for them but in joining their efforts to repel the revolutionary torrent which bas separately carried desolation in most of their provinces, and in all their capitals. They now have done what has been long ago recommended to them, by enlightened and pa triotic w►iters, what, if done sooner, would have prevented so many evils, and given rest to the world. After mature deliberation, they have formed a leapt. to.secure the inde pendence of Europe, disclaiming openly every selfish view of conquest and aetrandizement, and every sentiment of hosti lity against Fran( e «hen once separated from the revolutionary system. had the contracting parties at Pilnitz been ani mated by the same spirit, “ the hydra of the revolution nur tured in blood," as a Russian proclamation expresses it, would have been smothered in its cradle. In the new league, too, those rankling animosities which have proved so fatal to former, coalitions, %appear to have been mutually set asicle,ond one of the principal rea sons assigned by Austria for going to war, is the in_ kntion openly avowed by the enemy of destroying Prussia, her ancient rival, whose tempting spoils she Lad even been offered to :bare. From the principles of this !!ague, there. fore, we are induced to conclude, that it will be lasting, and that the A2ies will not consent to a peace until they have attained the object for which they have taken up arms, or until (which God forbid) they have no resource left but to sta. tit to the Conqueror. There is another consideration which must go home to the bosom of every oue of the Allied Pow** and tend pow erfully to cement their union. They must be aware that this is the last struggle each, of them will to able to maintain; V.l. VL So. SCOT .
