Every thing is prepared for the Congress at Vienna, and it is in the midst of ambitious projects and plans of aggrandizing of every kind of all the powers, that the negotiations for the peace of Europe are about to commence. We are assured, that the discontent of some of the cabinets is no longer a secret, the Union of some of the Allied Powers is only held by a thread. Let us throw a rapid glance at the situation of Europe. Never were dispositions so apparently pacific.—All the Powers remained under arms, only a part of the landwehr and militia have been disbanded. Rumors spread in the North of the designs of a great power upon certain provinces. The Poles, placed between hope and fear, will not remain tranquil until they are acquainted with the Constitution which has been promised them. The officers of that nation in their address to General Dombrowski who enjoys their confidence, have expressed the feelings of the people. The people of Poland who have been humbled without being bent down, will not be at rest unless their integrity as a nation is re-established. The most moderate upon this point entirely concur with the most decided patriots. They are ready, upon this condition, cheerfully to receive the King which may be given them, whether he be a foreigner or not.—The Russian troops are considerably reinforced in Holstein, under the pretext that the affairs of Norway are not yet settled, & that the treaty between Norway and Sweden is only provisional. The Russian General Bennigsen is at the head of this corps of the army. Holstein is perhaps one of the richest countries in Germany. The Hanoverian troops are recruiting, and are beginning to march in divisions towards the Rhine and Belgium. We are assured that they will be replaced in Hanover by English troops, which does not, however, prevent the English Cabinet from sending troops to the Low Countries and to Germany—There is one thing remarkable, viz. that England, which is at Peace with every Nation On the Continent, and who is warmly attacked in Canada, sends twice as many troops to our Continent, as she does to America. Holland now follows all the movements of England,—The Hereditary Prince has not yet given up hopes of having the hand of the Princess Charlotte.—Holland wants the support of England to enable her to recover her colonies; therefore she has gone entirely into the English system. Some of the Princes on the right bank of the Rhine have, according to their old usage, placed their troops in the pay of England.—The English Generals thus find themselves at the head of numerous forces. They push their troops forward on the side of the Meuse, and their partisans pretend, even that Belgium is to be enlarged at the Congress of Vienna, and, if they are to be believed, it is to be extended to the banks of the Rhine. A numerous corps of the Prussian army has taken a position between the Meuse and the Moselle, and will remain there until the fate of these countries is decided. It is said that the country between the Rhine and the Moselle is to be divided between the Princes who have ever been mentioned; but this is only conjecture; France and Russia will necessarily have a great influence upon the Congress at Vienna; it is difficult to foresee what may be the result of the shock of so many interests.
