Some of our politicians who are ignorant of the late conferences and the debates of the Diet, imagine that this was only a feint to draw the French into a snare. it is, however, but too certain that the Priiuian troops ex'pe&ed to reinforce the combined army in the Netherlands, have aftnally receivedorders to march for Cleves and Weltphalin. / ■ " On the sth infiarif,' Count Met ternich communicated to the States of Brabant the intentions of the Emperor whh relpeiS to his inauguration, which is to take place in the course of this month.

We are this day informed, that the Anftrians have retaken Perl from the French, and that they are beginning to fortify it. COBLENTZ, March 29. We are now this moment informed that the Prussian* have received or ders to halt, probably to return to their former position, or to go iip the Mozelle, as the French are advancing in considera ble force in the environs of Treves, as well as towards Manheim, which latter city it is said they intend to bombard. NEUWIED, March 31. There are every day passing on the left bank of the Rhine corps of Prufiians, who are retreating to Cologne.

'ES. JUNE J. LONDON, April- 5. —io. \ The coaimana of the troops of. the Germanic Empire has been given to ]Duke Albert of SaxeTefchen. Those who, since the commencement or the French rcvolurion, have attended to the views,the conduct, and the charac ter of men in power; of the men who by the dint of blood and crimes have raised themselves from the very scum of the peo ple to the hlgheft offices—thofe, we fay, who have paid this attention, have fore feen and predi&ed that these very men, so soon as they (hould think themselves secure in the obtainment of the supreme authority, would enter into a mutual ri valfhip, despising and contemning each other, until each party (hould declare an .open war againlt the other ; which, after having produced the molt alflidting scenes of misery, would impress the people with such horror, as to bring about the re-ef tablilhment of laws» and a legitimate au thority. . The firft contentions were between the Conilitutionaliftsand Girondilts; and ter minated by the overthrow and mafiacre of the authors of the celebrated Consti tution. The'Girondilts were next sub dued by the intrigues of the Anafchifts, and experienced in their turn thfe fate they had themselves awarded to the Conftitu tionaliits. A division soon found its way among the Anarchists of the mountain ; and Ro berfpierre the chief of the Septemberizers, has got rid of Hebert and the old accom plices of his crimes. Danton himlelf, the terrible Danton, has jult been caught in the trap of the di&ator, whole friendlhip he appears to have fought, merely to (tab him in secret, with the greater fafety. In the fall of the Cordeliers are also implicated Defmoulins, whom Robeifpicrre once Iheltered from their attacks; and Phillipeaux, who had drawn down their vengeance on him, in consequence of having denounced the Genet als of the revolutionary army, wh.o were allied to them. In die midst of all these contradidtory fadts, it is some consolation to observe, for the firft time since the commencement of the revolution, the molt sanguinary party falling a facrifice to the one that recom mends the mare moderate rncafurea.
