NNA, APRIL 26.—The Declaration of the iSth is known in France, as is proved by the article in he Journal de Paris of the s th of April. This on is the unanimous expression of the wishes and of nations. The article which pretends to refute it us with the most scandalous abuse thit ever has e of the facility of speech and of human reason enlightened people. developeme&t of the principles which dictated the. act of the Congress of the 13th of March, will demonstrate to the French station that it has not spoken, that it never will speak, the sacrilegious language, which its upprtssor attri butes to it, will separate its cause from his, preserve to the nation its real dignity, and open to it a prompt and honour able way still to rally to the rest of Europe. " The Congress has not deliberated upon suppositions.- It has proscribed Buonaparte. This man cannot and ought net to find any further asylum among civilized nations. Still less can he govern them. Such is the principle of the act of proscription denounced against him. It is founded upon justice, as well as upon the legitimate interests of na tions, it is therefore irrevocable. Assistance has been of fered to the French_ nation, and to its Government. it is still offered, It may nobly decline this assistance, by re jecting from its bosom.the principle of the war. It cannot do without it, as long as it shall bear the yoke of a man who seeks to dishonour it, by making it guilty of a two.fold per jury. A compact united it with its Sovereign. A treaty had reconciled us with Europe. Buonaparte, in arrogating to himself the supreme power, has made it violate both. He replunges it into the horrors of civil war, anarchy, and mi litary despotism. Is it possible that he dares to promise France liberal institutions, and the empire of The laws ? Is it possible that this man can have the affrontery to promise to foreign nations that he will respect treaties, and not inter fere in their affairs? Is it he who pretends to n►,:ke the in dependence of the French respected ? His leavoig the Isle of Elba, his arrival in France, the titles with whico he dares to invest himself, the authority he has seized upon, the delu• sions with which he surrounds it, those whichile is p:eparing to support it, all these crimes, if legitimaied by the vssrort of the European Powers, would threaten social older With com plete destruction, and nations with the yoke from which they have just been delivered.—No ; No experience has been lost for Europe; after so many years of suffering and calamity none will be lost for France herself. She knows the count= less evils which the monstrous despotism of a single man has caused to weigh upon her as upon the rest of The universe, which her nations feel what they owe to their dynasty, as members of the European family, and to their internal pros perity as individual States. This sentiment having become common to all people and all Governments, created a new moral force in political combinations, which alone made the grand alliance prosper, and enabled it even to conquer the general peace at the gates of Paris. This force exists it is indisputable, because it is composed of the most porserful motives (springs of action), and of the dearest sentiments, those of religion, patriotism, and national honour. " The Treaty of May So, Lid down the basis of the resto ration of the public law of Europe, and it established by its consequences a happy concord bttwcen the progress of the spit it of the age. and the perfecting of the institutions calcu lated to guarantee to each people the enjoyment of iis glory and its liberty. The Congress of Vienna was on the ere of completing the work of the re•consti uction of the political system of Europe. The same Congress, the line of conduct which it has followed, proves that all interests have been ma t.turely weighed, and its labours offered the consolatory result which insures to nations the -inalienability of their indepen dence. .it is no longer the will of the strongest which , rifles the voice of truth, and crushes the most legitimate resist ance. It is the right.; of each---it is the general interest. It is justice and political reason, (raison d'etat) no lunger ar mies whi(h decide. *4 Europe desires peace; she has doubtless need of it. But she will not think she has obtained it, till it shall be founded on the immutable principles inherent in each State, and on
