The inhabitants of the country, tired of the scourges of war, arm themfeves and rife, in many places again ft the rebels. The confidence which the government infpiies is complete. It is said that Georges, who commands in Morbihan, feeling the impolfibility of a. longer resistance offers to fuhmit. One way .or other he will fo»n be disarmed. Many communes have sent their arms to General Muller, General Tavot proceeds with equal .adivity and success in peace fully disarming the Vendeans. General Brune set out on the fourth al eleven o'cl-ck in the morning, with an escort •f Xj guides mounted on horseback for Morbihan. He takes Rifon in his wjy. The bad state of the roads has obliged him, as well as General Debelle. to fend back the carriages which they brought for the journey, aßd they have continued their route on horseback General Grigney is expefied every mo dest sith the column he commands.

IMPORTANT STATE PAPER Donaueschingen, Dec. 4. Address of its royal highness the Arret* duke Bharles to the interior circles of the empire. It is fmm a sentiment of the most urgent necessity thst X feel inyfdf cortipfUed to speak to yo« on •>. fubje£t, certain slif pofitiom, from which miy result very great injury to the common cinfe of the G"riran ic empire. I<ee wit'n regret, tkat upon the late events in France, by which the fupr--*)e power (MS pwli-d into other hands, Iw» iteen founded alinoft every where the hope that has so often proved deceitful, of an ap proaching pacification) ; and that in the con fidence of this premature supposition hat been aijumed the power of deferring the put ting' off the contingents ir>a£tivity, and the accomplishment of rtt other constitutional obligations. A heart truly German and patriotic, and a mind enlightened by fitch fad experience, cannot absolutely commit such imprudence ; such conduft would de prive us ol the only means of concluding a speedy peace, upon terms just and proper, and which m»y prove solid and permanent. We ought not entirely to forget the maxim that \te should prepare vigorously for Mar, when we wished for peace ; and we flnll obtain the latter much the more soon, and on termi the more advantageous, when the euemy shall fee us in a state to continue the war, should he be disposed to continue his imperious tpne, and to prescribe once more a Jiratlfe. that wouM'jbrjng with it flianieand flawry, or infallibly lead to them. Too of. ten has the hope, indulged with so much precipitation, refpe&ing France, proved deceitlul, to fuffcr these .new events to se duce and lull the state into a falfe security. It has been feei) uniformly to the present hour, that every new faction in France has spoken a great deal about peace, not for the purpose of concluding one on equitable terms but to gain popularity ; that they have of ten the word peace in their fncnths, aod are contiutjally commencing new wars ; or that by the word peace, they have meant no thing Hut the extermination of their ene mies. The event which has taken place in France on the 9th of November, considered iq a near point of view, is not of a nature to be able to afford us' all at once, a full confidence. Some of those who have pof fefTed themselves of the fnpreme power, are the fame men, who fp often, by their prin ciples, ard the whole course of their public life, have sworn mortal hatred and eternal enmity to all other (totes not constituted like their own ; who have overturned lome, and perfidioufly subjugated others in full peace. The spirit even which manifefts itfe.lf in the public writing of France it not so paci fic ; it is there frequently declared, that this new revolution has no other objeft but to raise the republic to the rank which it ought to hold in Eurnpe. The late direttory is blamed there not for having commencrd war, but for having carried it on unfticcefsfully j not for having conquered new provinces ; bnt for having loft several. In their pro clamations* they begin alway« with speaking of vi£\pries, and they afterwards talk of peace ; a clear indication that cireumftances do not appear yet fufficiently favorable for the latter, and that they would wish still to try the fate of arms before they would think of concluding it. The minjfter of wac open ly announces, that he is employed in re-in fjreing the army, and procuring it every tiling necessary. He adds, that he will take I a part hitnfelf in its dangers, as soon as the ] f<al'on permits the opening of the campaign —aßd that he is preparing for it new tri umphs. There has not been yet on the part of Franee relaxations in the preparations for war to Juftify the Germans to relax tfieir< ; but, on the contrary, a new corps is to be formed in the four non-United departments. But even though we might have no grounds to conceive any distrust refpefting the views and objefts of the rulers of France, the new revolution is not fufficiently confirmed in its feat to inspire a f«ll confidence that it may not be overturned like the reft. Fi nally, the quftion is not here ofi'uch a peace as every convention or armistice might be called. Th?- qurftioii*is fafety ; the condi tions for which we eflentially contend ; con ditions which the honor, dignity, liberty, the integrity »f the Germanic empiric, and inviolability of our dearest treaties demand. The queflion is a just, Stand durable peace, in the sense of the decisions of the diet, which may seCure religion, property, civil order, and the constitution of the empire. I invite you to weigh maturely these cpn derarions with the patriotic fentimeots with which you are inlpired, and then you will certainly agree with me that prudence im periously requires thai you (hould not be se duced into ina&ivity by the reports of an approaching peace and principles more mo derate. or to law down your arms until peace (hall be signed—You will feel with me the ntceffity of not delaying the measures of de fence, but on the contrary of redoubling our efforts, augmenting our forces and ac romplilhing with the greatest aflivity, and in the molt serious manner, the deeifion, renewed and confirmed by the refolmiom of the di«t, for the common defence, that we may be able to oppose an energetic mass of efforts to the views of the enemy, what ever they may be. It is only by an impo sing military force that we shall be able to prevent the enemy from making new deva ftsting attacks, abridge ar terminate the evils of war, ameliorate the conditions of pacification, and finally accelerate a peace that may deserve the name of one, and re compence the multiplied faprifices by which we hav for a long time fin«e fought to pro- cure it.'" St. PIERRE, (Martinico) Jan. 25 A fcbooner privateer, (formerly the Port land) was off the Pearl by the (hip Bittern's tender, after a (mart aftion ; the tender had one man killed and the captain dangfroufly wounded ; the privateer had three men Willed and eight wounded.
