POLITICAL SIMM Mir. 1 UNITED KINGDOM.—The- frequent passage of flags of truce between the coasts of Great Britain and France, appears to authorise the opinion, that some preparatives towards ne- gotiation are making, as, in the present state of animosity between the two powers, no friendly accommodation of the kind to a third, nation, would probably be allowed. If a peace should grow out of the existing circumstance," it will be a strong and curious exemplification of the old adage," that$11 extremes meet."— But of this pesalt there spems to be but little probability, though the pre88ure,pf the mea- sures, mutually resorted to by h states, is severely felt, by their respective subjects. A crisis is- rLetesoarily of short continuance and no condition of affair* can be rfitore critscal", than that, i* which we. are now -laced, The troops from Monte Video h»Y<pf>een disen^ barked at Cork, and are supposed to be des- tined to augment, permanently, the military force of Ireland. The expedition under Ge neml Spencer and Sir Charles Cotton may pro- bably be con«dered ag having failed as it was' dispensed and driven back by a violent storm °n th* ull. No lass^ of transports it appre* hende*. ■" TBE CONTINENT.—The to farlt on the 27th iilt.- may be regarded as sndden and unexpected; for the grand groupe of new ItingSi Queens, Pt-inces and Frincesses, Tince,s with the Pppe, had j^ot appeared; at t}J.e.:impeflal'cirde.asit'was i&tended. An in. surreetion in the Italian &iitfgdoin;iA stated to "the cau se but very littlo of-whatpsts^es oa the Continsttt u hsw know* herct .4.a ad-1 '0 (3'itional de#ee, imposing fresli restraints up oft commerce has been published in Fraacel, ac- companied. with a very singular exhortation to tlie people, to submit to the privations, which the policy of the Emperor inflicts upon them. The tone is very Idiffeient- froiii' the y magnificent assumptions of ships, colonies, and commerce, in the triumphant declaniations after the battles of Austerlitz and Jeua. But as argument may faal; a hint of forcible co- ercion, in case of mutiny, is thrown out- Ru- mours, supposed to be founded on facts, are afloat, thatAlexander requires the evacuation of the Prussian States by the Frenchjtroops, while p w Napoleon insists upon the departure of the Russian forces from Moldavia and Wallachia, Brannau has at length, been rstored to Austria; but that power it is said, has positively refused to close Trieste against the British. It is not possible, in fact, for Europe to continue long in ittr present condition. GER-MANT.The distresJ, of the Northern Provinces may be shortly described. They can sell no manufactures; they can buy no ar- ticled of the first necessity: they are in want of every tiling- The explosion must be dread- ful when it does take place that is, when the people are arrived at whjrf may be called the point of despair;. The Fret&b t#oop« them- selves, at Dantzic, commanded by the very Pudinot, sent by some of our politicians toth^ banks of the Caspian, are stated to suffer much from want of provisions. ITALYJ—The annexation pf Btnlria t'o the kingdom of Italy H spoken of: in the" mean, time manj great ami beneficial works are "or- dered, diiiiia. roads, and canals. It may,. indeed, be easily believed that the attive, though severe goverrthieni "of France, will greatly eurpast in exertioo, the {decayed auT thority of^the PopeSf^theslaggishness and imbecility of the fcitfe Bourbon and Austrian reigns throughout Italy. Sicily Still ^outinyes and will continue to be occupied by nfitish force, supposed to bellal to its defence* PORTUGAL.—It now appears, if we may be> lieve General Junot, that he invaded this un- happy country in order to rescue the Prince Regent from the English. SWEDEN.—The gallant King of Sweden is said to be menaced both by the Bns,siaii and- Danish sovereigns; aiid, hi sOnJe loose reports, it is even intimated, that he will rather abdi- cate his crown than submit. } EAST AND WEST INDIES.—It is HOW cer- tainly. known j, that the King of Persia bas openly embraced the politics of France but India can only be lost to us by a miracutous complication of concurring causes. In the West Indies an expedition Was preparing against the Danish Islands,, when the last: ac- counts came away. ,i NORTH AMERICA.—The proceedings of the la:ture afe chie*Y etmhaWI raAtSwy-" measures of defence and. aggression. Arms, cannon, ammunition, are all to be provided the Militia, above 640,000-men, to be impro- ved in discipline, and fortifications ereetttd. But of the. eventual termination of pur differ- ences, nothing can be yet prognosticated. In the mean time, the chicanery of the French and Spaniards about Louisiana, still continues. The purchase money has been long paid; but the title is not yet made good. In France, also, some American ships have been confis- cated, and their seamen actually made prison- ers, for having touched at a British port.. Our preparations for defence in Canada are com- plained of as offensive. SOUTiÍ AMERicA.Our government,! tt is said, will lend itself with a formidable force to General Miranda, who has a/irived m England, Art. In In his cnterprizes upon the Caraccas. The In- dependence of those provinces would probably occasion a general revolt of the remaining ones from old Spain, now in the hands of France. It is even said that v^ew^sh to eman- cipate the of Buenos Ayres, now taught to know their own strength. A curious correspondence between Generals Linniersand Whitelocke has been published. The Spaniard is still more superior with thepen, than with the,sword. V
