She doe• not wish for NAPOLEON's overthrow, because, as soon as eases to be a sovereign, the Austrian house must ht d graded, and fli4lonOUred in the eves of the nations, for an alliance which success alone, and the purple of empire could justify and ennoble She would like to reduce his power : but at the seine time she is jealous and apprehensive of the Allies She knows that her indecision has not obtained their friend-hip, and she is conscious that by the same rea son she has inclined BL oN AP A Tcr displeasure. She will therefore, by her offers or thre:rts of interference, endea your to maintain that balance between the Belligerents, which prevents their dissatisfaction from bursting against her, and makes it their interest to respect and court hers Lowever they may disapprove of her policy. In the eve( ution of this plan, her geographical "position powerfully aisis s for it enables her to fall on the rear of the - con que•o whoever he he, if he carries his arms further than she thinks proper. Thus if NAPOLEON be driven to the ban! s •-f the Rhine, she may stop the career of his foes and procure him a peace that will secure his possessions within that river. If, on the contrary, notwiths , anding their numbers And the enthusiastic spirit of their people, the Allies be re pel c'd !o the Niemen, the influence of Austria will be ex ert d in their favour. It is said we have in vain offered to give her steme he French colonies, she will not espouse either side; her position as a mediator is too flattering to her pride to be easily relinquished. But leaving Austria, we have only to revert to the situation of the Belligerents in the mirth, so equally poised in their numbers at the beginning of this month, to appre• ciate the full value of the victory of Vitoria. It is this bat tle which, though fought at fdeen hundred miles distance from Silesia, will cripple the French in that quarter. It is that which will render them inferior to their opponents even ih numbers. When their western frontiers arc invaded, the mass of men Collected in the north must be dissolved, and out of it an army must be sent to stop our progress. What ap opportunity will not this give to the enslaved people of Germany to join the Allies in aims, and to restore independ ence to the continent. The hour of freedom may be said to have struck,—if it he allowed ,to pass unimproved never will it sound again for mankind.

PARIS, JuNr 6 .l9.—Her Majesty the Enipress-Quectt and Regent los received the following news Irons the army, dated Dresden, June :2 4:— Capt. Pian:st, an offs; 4 .r of the staff, charged with carrying intel ligence . of the Armistice, has arrived at Dantzte. He had much difficulty in getting into the place, because Grneral Rapp, the 6over'ior, fatigued by the :treat number of flags of truce which the • twiny sent every day, had declared that he woothl receive no more of them. The Officer had, therefore, considerable diffi culty in making himself known. • It would le..difficnlt to deseribe the joy which Iris presence caused that tine and numerous garrison, which is far from having the appearance of a besieged fortress; it is master of all its neighbour hood. Tire r atolls which arc to be furnished for it, duri*u the Ar. mistice, have beets fixed at 20,000 daily, which has, with justice, caused remonstrances on the part of the Governor. Several times that garrison, during the five months blockade, threw shells into the enemy's Lad-quarters, and, as one may say, besieged -him. General Rapp has formed a rood battalion of foot-guards, which is composed of fatigued and frozen men, who took refuge in the fortress. a I I I 1 • r t e y pf Ic ►y ►r DC of to er er iis Lis lie . to gas nq ply Av. eb la. he
