If .Woroiizw, (now ifl London) were not
m.re an Englishman than a Hossian, a very
ndit1crent.idea would be'formed of his talents,,
to admit rliat he could suppose that 60, 80 or
t oo.OOt) Russians were competent to disgrace
Franca, to induce - her to bend to the British
yoke, to abandon Belgium, and to force the
tmperor to resign Jus Italian crown to the
"degenerate race of the Sardinian sovereigns.
-Ttie Russian troops are brave,' but infinitely
Jess so than the French. Their generals are
ijujte inexperienced, and their soMiers so ig
norant and stupid, as to render their arms
by no means redoubtable. ,' -f
Supposing moreover the possibility of the
Ituisians beiBg victorious, Russia herself
must have been depopulated to have attained
thi senseless object', prescribed to them by

It wat strongly reported at Berlin, when
the last letters r.ame away, that Schimmel
pennick was about to resign the place oi
Grand Pensionary of Holland, and was to be
succeeded by Louis Buonaparte. Thi is
not a Very improbable speculation.
( There seems no doubt that the Elector of
Bavaria is to be Hing 5 and that Eugine Beau
harnois is to marry his daughter.
But there is a talk of setting up another
King. The Hamburg correspondent insi
nuates, that the Erector of Wirtemberg look
for that dignity. It would be strangr enough,
if the daughter of onf most gracious Sove-
; reign were to be raised to the rank of ,- Qjteen

It is certain that Buonaparte hat been plea
sed to accept the Grand Electoral Order
presented to him by the Elector of W irtcm
burg. We understand that the Emperor Napo-
Jeon has demanded of the Elector of VVir
temburg, the whole population of whose do
'mlhions does not exceed half a million, an
immediate aid of 10,000 men. The Elector
has published a long and laboured address to
his subjeett mithe occasion. " ' !

upwards of 200 houses were waihed away,
and not a vestige of them left behind ; a num

effects, lost their lives. To add to the disas
