by taking poffeffion, on juft conditions, of unoccupied land, and unclaimed dividends, has fome enterprize in view of great magnitude. But the projected confederation, or re-confederation among the european powers, muft be in a ftate of great maturity, we fear, before it be openly joined by the fpaniards. ITALY. The english fleet, joined by a portuguefe fquadron, with neapolitan troops, has fet fail from the bay of Meffina, probably for the reduction of Malta, and the venetian iflands, in the hands of the french. TURKEY. The french tranfports are ftill fafe in the harbour of Alexandria: nor can they be attacked, with effect, but by the cooperation of land troops. By the lateft accounts it would appear, that Buonaparte is not in fuch immediate danger of capture or excifion as was for fome time imagined. He will, however, have need of all his talents and all his refources, in order to extricate himself out of his prefent fituation. Nelfon's late glorious victory off the mouths of the Nile has probably been more fortunate for this country and for Europe, than if he had defeated, or taken the whole of the french fleet before Buonaparte had landed at Alexandria. GERMANY. The court of Vienna feems to relax in it's duty to the empire; but to urge with vigour the particular interefts of the house of Auftria. Audrian troops have entered the country of the grifons: yet a feparate peace is much talked of between France and Auftria.Pruña, on the contrary, at length fully convinced of the urgency of the cafe, promifes very proper exertions. On the fituation of the court of Berlin, we refer our readers to our obfervations thereon in our laft number. SWEDEN and DENMARK, furrounded by the fleets of Ruffia and Great Britain, muft of necefity, fooner or later, join them in the common cause of civilization. GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND. The king's fpeech to parliament indicates an intention and hope, to improve the victory on the egyptian coaft, into the means of aroufing and uniting Europe against France. The marquis of Lanf down, certainly a very wife and enlightened ftatefman, thinks that fuch a confederation is not to be expected. The continental powers are fo rancorous in their jealoufies and refentments, and fo fhort-fighted in their views, that they would rather, fuffer ruin than moderate their prejudices and paffions. We are very much afraid, that the noble marquis, and thefe members of parliament who efpoufe his opinions, are in the right. Still we have the confolation to fay, that the mar quis and his friends fupport our opinions, fo often repeated, that to attack the french republic only concentrates and gives vigour to their power; and that, to reft on our arms, in a defenfive pofture, and to give out (which without the leaft formality might cafily be done) that we were prepared for, and even defirous of peace and reconciliation; would tend to gain the general voice of the french nation, and, on the whole, be the best and wifeft policy.
