THE NATIO: (epithets so coarse and violent, that few would venture, for or own credit, to employ them ; stud a determined and mini. run reprobation of all the measures of our Government. Such pies and such a sty le are very apt to become popular among the immon people, to whose habits rudeness and discontent are mcenial ; but it is evident th::: iu proportion as they do be rme popular, they contribute to interrupt civilization, and sap to foutila t ions of our public prosperity. The uniformity with which The Independent Whig rails at ;T ry measure of ourown Covermaent, and extols every measure the enemy is truly curious, if it were not trul cri 110 .

Yet all these trier.vures appeared to The 'Ng the consummation of II is ism 1 is Idle esery retaliating , der of our Minister; was considered as Ow height of folly and surditv. When the Russian Declaration made its appearance, was panewised ai unanswerable, - as manly, explicit and rgetie it was found to have nu weak side; Alexander's mplaiuts, that we had deserted him. were declared to be 11-founded ; and his word was at once taken for the numerous ievances which he said his commerce had sustained. %%lien r counter-Declaration appeared, it was flatly stigmatised as maining " nothing bet vague and iltra.y rettionin asgertimai un-alpported by. proof, declamatory invective sob - mantra cot uzical deduction, substantiating scarcely any thing but the impotency of our Ministers !" But the remarks on our De ration, which lately appeared in The Nowiteur, met s ith ditTernt fate. " This able and eloqnsat production," says Whig, " which, in our opinion, ennipletely exposes the hsurdity and refutes the falsehoods of our Ministers, itt their nswer to the ilavaian Declaration, certainly merits the se boos and deliberate attention of every rational and re tlecting A discussion follows in which The Monitetie is found, rue!, instance l , to be. perfectly unanswerable. Such is the nt,vr in which The Irhig uniformly proceeds, rendering the plc discontented, by traducing our aka Government, and thing every measure of our enemies. 'he manner in which The Isedepeielent Whig courts popu itv, b. converting to its use all the prejudices of the common pie, is art less scandalous than its perpetual declamations avour of our enemies. We shall not select a political in ice, where some might doubt what is prejudice anti what is : we soon only advert to a recent instance, in which it has avoured to gain credit with all the weak women and gossip nurses in the kingdom, by calumniating . the greatest blessiog f.Tred on society in our days—the discovery of the cow-pox. does not scruple to announce the complete failure of remedy, the horrid spectacle* it has produced : and pro -, a still more thundering essay on the subject, when we e uu doubt that there w ill be introduced the cosss' horns tail', with all the other stories which .Drs.

Sir Francis Burdett. Of the former it ks in the loftiest terms : of its style on this solsiect, the fol ing extract from In of its late numbers will afford a speci :—" The Emperor Napo!elm has set out on his journey to aly.

Such are the panegyrics which Napoleon is incessantly loaded, while no expression fitted to make our Government appear oppressive, feeble, cuntemptibll. It is fur the Editor of The ;Vhig to explain t other eireet these panegyrics and reproaches can have, circulated among the most ignorant classes of the people, to render them enemies to the British Government, and to exchange it fur the domination of th e m agn ifi cen t Na ti ! 41.

That note, signed .Canning, contains in substance— •` Tat His Britannic Majesty would have accepted, with pleasure, the mediation of Russia, if he had received informa tion respecting the cases upim which the Mediator honed to have re-established the general peace. But his Majesty the Emperor of .Russia, after having repeatedly promised to his Britannic Nlajesty nut to conclude any peace with France, without having assumed the independence of the German Provinces, had, not withstanding, by the Treaty of Tilsit. whicla far from containia4 any stipulations on that head, greased to submit the whole of Germauy to the wishes of France. Now His Britaunie alajesty cannot cuter into any negociation with France' unless the com plete restitution of the Electorate of Hanover he admitted as a preliminary bask. By an unconditional acceptance of the Rus sian mediation, His Britannic Majesty would have reason to fear lest his German States should become a French Province.
