THE NATIONAL REGISTER. The drivelling politics of the wretched Court of Berlin, we detest and despise. But we cannot shut our eyes to the circumstance of Cuxhaven having been occupied by the English, and Vie municipalty having been obliged to re - . place the buoys. The irruption of the Austrians into Sax ony, the possession of Dresden, and the other circumstances convince us that the object of this expedition is to alarm the coast of France, and find employment for the con scripts at home, to destroy the flotilla stßoulogne, to se cure a point of debarkation in Germany, to act in concert with the Duke of Bay NsWICIIL and perhaps the Prussians, and generally to connect, itself with the operations in the rear of BOUNAPARTEI . All Generals have been ordered to repair to their respec tive ports where their brigades are to embark. Lord CHATUAx will take his departure from Rainsgate. The troops of the line at Portsmouth are to be embarked to morrow, and it is erected that they will arrive in the Downs by the time that all the infantry from the Kent districts are ready to sail. The Expedition is to sail in four divisions, a-1 the whole will get under weigh so as to reach the objects of des tination at the same period. The arrangements for the em barkation and disembarkation of the troops are we tinder stand, very satisfactorily settled. The different divisions arc said to sail from Portsmouth, the Downs, Harwich, and the More. The whole may be embarked in forty-eight hours, and disembarked in a still shorter period. In the meAn time the very idea of this armament has ex cited an tindescribable alarm on the French coast ; if we lire to believe the report of persons who have been . lately at Calaii, and on the French coast, the appearance of half *dozen vessels in the distance at sea is constrned to be L' 4 rmafnent, and from the folbiwing letters it would seem that Cie Bo , dogne Fiotill t Ijael put to so+ in order either to proceed to the Scheid, or by bravado to ingp'rit the people and counteract the effect which our preparations t7e excited. vr a, Ju Lir 13 —Nearly two hundred sail of the Ilnu locne Flotilla came suit of that pl lee this morning about eleven o'clock. gly with the intention of prnceedin? towards C VI-% continued to i•retrh along the coast towards -Cie latter place till 111 , )tt! o'• lack. w!,en they were dis tinctly seen from our heights. to go 8/111ill, an. t , tltrfl towards L':atlogne; the wind ha; rg shitted r mod to the eastward. - It did not :tppear that any tor onr er ti ter% tt ere up w ith them.— It being a very clear day, we !lad a very distinct view, told could plainly discern their lug-sail , , and even masts Upwards tif 150 were counted about one o'clock, and m iny of them by that time had got back to Boulogne.

DOVER, Jtyr.v 14.—Yesterday evening, the fog having clear ed away it was discovered from our ItiW, that the French had got between four and 600 of their flotilla out of Boulogne; they stood away to the F.astward with light winds; and when they had got about half way to Calais, the ,witrl coming short, they tacked about and went down again to Boutogne, and the greatest part went in the same tide. • The Indus, Whirrs wag mis . ‘iirt out of the East India fleet, cacao op, aod *eat past in the nizirt. 4 60 JULY 16 1 • It is but seldnni we have aiLopportunity of preseutin4 to onr readers, with a satisfat.tiop,y, completely unmixed, a doanuent, at once impurtaut from its uature, acid inte resting from its manner. The Austran account of the inipaign, and particularle of ate battle of Aspern, is per sp cuous ai.d dignified. It is written with that kind of elem. quenee which derives its most appropriate •ornament from simplicity. It is at once spirited and plain, and chaltengea our attention, as well,from time unaffected style in which it. is written, as for the importance of the suluuct to which it relates. The first sentiment we experience after read ing it, is. that of admiration. - We see the Archduke CRARLFP,• to whom the salvation of the monarchy Iva* entrusted, nubroken, undismayed, and confident in his own powers, even after the battle of Abersherg, endea-• vowing to overtake by a circuitous road, the rapid movements of linos! A P ARTE, and to pi ice himself between his euemy and the "(rates of Vienna. Disappoinied by .the activity of his rival, he pauses, at no great distance, and concentrates himself in a position selected with the great , est military skill and knowledge. The error of Licosa- PASTE in possessing himself of the capital instead of pursuing the Aactianse, is now obvious—war seldom admits the opportunity of two great mistakes.— But-even this is rather glanced at than pointed out. Peace is not vet dictated by Bnosaeaaae iu Vienna—the re sourses of the monarchy are not exhausted—and the Arch duke has proved not only that he is a rival worthy of RVOIA PARTE, but that he is equal to him in all the requi sites of a great General. If the one is eminently qualified by his genius and abilities to disturb the repose of Europe and throw it off the poise, the Archduke seems equally calculated lo conciliate, to restore, and to save it. The conqueror of the Continent has been defeated, his standard is no longor invincible, the delusion is passed, the magi cian's wand.is broken, and his power is dissolved. All this seems to have been effected by means that every man can appreciate; the tale is told with a perspicuity that will come home to every bosom ; the plan tit operations is to he traced without confusion, the conduct of the several parts of the army are detailed so completely, that the most ha-military reader may follow the different corps in the several operations. The sanguinary conflict is read with interest, because we understand what we read, and time geueral effect upon the mind is to produce sympathy, edmi rat ion, and enthusiasm—And this lk VOC of the epherne ral Bulletins of filch Lyon %esters complains. Gracious God how long will such it wretch he suffered to insult the common sense, and outrage every feeling of man kind! When thy inscrutable, bet wi.e purposes, are ansner, ed, and he is hurled from the giddy summit to which thou hast raised him, then shall thy S IS(' oin he manirested, and all the nations of the earth shall rise up and praise tree. Compared with this, even the best productions of the emperor of the Farsca, and how insignificant do thy ap pear. No inflated pretensions, no exaggerated claims des race this—the mind is lead on from cause to consequence, with almos' geometrical precision, Every thing was fore seen and gnitided 'against, nothing, was left even to Provi dene.—but the surplus. After this, we feel more confident than ever, in the power of Austria ; and we feel oui...ilves relieved too In to a mod oppressive anxiety as to the con.- sequences of the ensuing battle, even if it should not prove favourable. The hero who is capable of folloeing hi s rival with a beat( n ;puny, and Of effecting, not by accident, hat by skill, perseverance, and courage, chat the A Reit- OUR E has effected, is capable of inspiring confidence, we bad almost said even after hope is extinguished.
