ÁaL h.. Homsfln. THI WAT, Aug. SO. Paris papers which have been received to the 10lb, contain no intelligence of much JL consequence. Bonaparte's birth-day was celebrated on the loth, and the frivolous populate ■\vfte allowed their usual indulgence?; the Theatres were opened and bands of music were sta- tioned in the Eiysian Fields and other places, for those who chose to dance, Tc Dcumwas perform- ed in the Hospital of the Invalids. The intelligence in these papers from the coast relates entirely to Bonaparte's tour of inspection. The most important part of their contents to this country, is the intelligence from Guadaloupe, which states that the French cruizers in those seas have captured 92 of our vessels. No such account, how- ever, has arrived at Lloyd's. A violent philippic has been published in the French official print, the Moniteur of the 14th, against the King of Sweden, in consequence of that Monarch's adoption of the sentiments of the Emperor of Russia, in respect to the violations committed by the French in Germany. The writ- ing is supposed to come from Bonaparte himself. The usurper sets out with abroad hint at the late whicn may befal Sweden if she dare to do any act that may be displeasing to France. lie then in-: veighs against his Swedish Majesty, for being so ready to make peace with France, whilst Germany was engaged in a. disastrous war. He asks him, f' Ifyuu are a Member of the Empire, why did you not succour it with your army? If you are one of the gtiarantces of the treaty of Westphalia, why did you make peace before the German Empire made theirs In the true Jacobin cant, he always sets up a distinction between the King and the people, and endeavours to stimulate the subject 3-gainst. the sovereign, by affecting the highest esteem for the former, and lamenting that their glo- ry and interests should be so little cultivated and consulted.—Bonaparte openly excites the Swedish people to rebellion: but they will be as little affect- ed, we believe, by his advice, as the King by his censure. The recal of Mr. Livingston is mentioned in the Paris papers, but they aiiect to be ignorant of the causes of it. ■ Great preparations are making for the corona- tion of Emperor Bonaparte, which, say the French accounts, will be celebrated by the most brilliant fetes ever seen in France. Prisoners of every de- scription will be restored to their liberty, and a new amnesty puhlished,includingall emigrated persons, with the exception of the Bourbons, and persons related to them. Each officer will be advanced one step, and each soldier receive from the Empe- ror's private purse one decade's (ten days') pay. Letters this morning from Dover state that a heavy firing was hearcl yesterday morning, which increased in violence towards the afternoon, and lar:,J;e black columns of smoke ascended along the whole coast from Blancness to Boulogne. Letters from Deal also mention the heavy firing yesterday, and state that orders have been received from Government for all ships in the Downs to be ready to cut or slip their cables at an hour's not-ice. Government have also, in consequence of the p.p- pearance on the French coast, commanded several hired and revenue cutters immediately to rencVez- vous in the Downs, under the orders of Lord Keith. Several armed defence ships and armed transports sailed yesterday to join the squadron off Boulogne. The total amount of the French force assembled between Boulogne and Calais, is said to be o'ne hundred and eighty thousand men, compieafjy equipped and ready Jo embark. Orders have been transmitted to most of the Vt)- lunteer corps in the kingdom, tO l>r>lrl themselves in readiness to march at an hour's notice, upon the first certain intelligence of the enemy appearing on the coast. 0 Six of the ships lately arrived from China, are t,o be engaged by Government to assist in the block ade ot the mouth of the-Thames. Liberty and equality were lately the order of the day in France but the people, humbled by their' crimes and by their misery, are now content with the latter only.-Equality they have, for they are now all equally slaves. Sir E. Nepean has been re-elected Member for Bridport. Plymouth, Aug. 28.—Early this morning came in the Nautilus, of 13 guns, Capt. Aldham, from a cruize off the coast of Spaing with a fine retaken Jamaica ship, laden with cotton, coffee,, indigo, cochineal, sugar, and rum, called the William Heathcote, of Liverpool, of 12 guns and 10 men, va- lued at 80,0001. one of the last Jamaica convoy, captured off Cork on the 1st of August by the General Augereau French privateer of 20 guns and 160 men. belonging to Bourdeaux, and recaptured the 9th ins.t. oft Bayonne, by the Nautilus. The General Augereau escaped by superior sailing.- The t-ngagement between the General Augereau and the William Heathcote, of 12 guns and 40 men, was very bloody while the conflict lasted, and re- flects great credit on her Captain, onicers, crew, and passengers, as the Frenchman ran her plump on board, and having poured in a heavy fire of can- non and musquetry, boarded, with the Lientenant and 86 men. Before she surrendered, the Captain of the William Heathcote, a passenger, and 17 men were killed and wounded. The Captain's son, a fine youth of is years old, having been very active in her defence, was brutally cut down, mangled, and killed, after she had struck, by three Spanish seamen, part of the privateer's crew, and in sight pf his dying father inhumanly thrown overboard. The Society for the Suppression of Více. conceiving that nothing tends more to immorality than poaching game, and that many are brought to- an untimely end by it, have, in order to discourage it as much as possible, directed those employed by them to keep a sharp look-out after the W.tge-coachcs, caravans, waggons, as well as higlers' carts, who arc in the practice of bringing to town all kinds of game. An officer of a volunteer corps in a .neighbouring county, at the commencement of his service, engaged to forfeit half-a-guineu for his first absence, and a progressive accu- mulation of double the preceding fine for every succeeding one. lie has now, from 16 omissions, incurred penalties to the amount of 32,7671. which can by the late act be levied on information before any justice of peace.—Nor- v kh Mercury. The physicians and surgeons of Glasgow have, since May 1801, inoculated above 6000 poor children with the cow-pox, free of expetice; and by their report, it appears that no instance of lieath has happened to any of these chitdrpa while under the disease, hardly any of them have required any medical treatment, and not a single ease is known where the small-pox has supervened aiter the vaccine disease has taken effect. Fiunw, Angus' 31. I The firing on the French coast continued the greater part of yesterday, but no further particu- lars have reached town. The King George cutter arrived yesterday in the Downs from our squadron off Ostend, which she left all well. The enemy's flotilla remained in the hiibour., Se\eral days last week, during the fine weather, onV oft-?horfi squadron by Brest could approach the outer road near enough to count, without the assistance of glasses, the number of ships at anchor there, which amounted in the whole to 17 u A ships, of the line, four of which were three-deckers, 9 frigates, and 11 cutters, or other small armed vessels. On board of some were observed land troops, who seemed busy in learning to tack, how "to be Useful and rnanreuvre, and who, besides, were every day exercising the guns. Most of tbe ships seemed in a state of preparation to take the advantage of the first opportunity to steal to sea. Sir Sidney Smith is greatly recovered from his severe indisposition, and had yesterday forenoon a long interview with Mr. Pitt, at his house in Downing-strect. Lieutenant Dennis, who commanded the Con- stitution lugger which was sunk in the late attack off Boulogne, is arrived in town, and has had several interviews with the Board of Admiralty. A great number of small craft to match those of the enemy, are now in readiness, and a number of fire ships will form a part of the next expedi- tion. The latter, without any probable loss of men, will give the enemy a lesson not easily, to be forgottcn.-Star. General Lauriston has been sent by Napoleon to Vienua, concerning the acknowledgment of the new imperial French title. This young officer is the same who was sent over here, and to some continental Courts. We understand it is intended to institute an ho- norary decoration commemorative of the triumphs of the British army in Egypt, and which,is to con- sist of across or medallion, to be worn with due regard to degrees and limitations of rank. There are at this time riot less than a hundred and ninety sail of ships unloading in the West- India Docks, a far greater number than has ever before been assembled at that place. The character of English seamen is not less dis- tinguished for acts of generosity than of valour. The following is an instance that ought to be re- corded Capt. Maitland, of the Loire, who a few days ago captured the Blonde privateer, en- tered into an agreement with the late Capt. Dixon, who unfortunately perished in the Apollo, to be equal sharers in the prize-money made by them during the war. The death of Captain Dixon of course dissolved the contract; but Capt. Mait- land, with a generosity becoming his character, has insisted that the agreement shall continue in. force, and that the widow and children of Captain .Dixon shall be entitled to half the amount of what- ever prize-money he. may obtain. The fact is somewhat singular, that the Captain of the Blonde privateer, which was taken by the Loire, was Lieutenant of that frigate when cap- tured in the late war. -r > The.National Intelligencer has given a statisti- cal table of the United States from 1774 to 1803, which marks the progress of the States in their population, commerce, arts, and political and do- mestic affairs. It gives to the United States 1250 miles in length, and 1040 miles in breadth, being more than 1,000,000 of square miles, or 640 mil- lions of acres. We can notice the great numbers only. In the above term of years, -the population has arisen from 2 to 5 millions; the improved land from 20 to 38 millions of acres; the militia has increased from 400,000 to 900,000; the Seamen from 15,000 to 63,000; the domestic produce from 6,000,000 of dollars to 42,000,000; the exports trom 6,000,000 to 55,000,000; the tonnage from 193,000 to above a million of tons active sinking fund in 1792, 2,000,000; in 1802, 12,000,00(3; bonds and cash in the treasury in 1793, 6,000,000 iii 1803, 13,000,000. Louisiana is not included. The Governor ofSt Helena has received the most positive injunctions to prevent on that island any kind of exchange or traffic of slaves, which might tend to encourage or countenance that trade. The Bank, we understand, has recently made ex- tensive purchases of bullion. The present period is unusually favourable for the long wanted silver coinage and the public are entitled to expect that it will not be neglected. SATURDAY, Sept. 1. The King has been pleased to grant the dignity of a Baron of the united kingdom.to Gerard Lake, Esq. General and Commander of his Majesty's forces in the East Indies, and the heirs male of his body lawfully begotten, by the name, stile, and title of Baron' Lake, of Delhi and Laswary, and of-Aston Clintonj in the county of Bucking- ham -The King has also been pleased to nouii- flate and appoint Major-General the Hon. Arthur Wellesley to be one of the Knights Companions of I the Most Hon. Order of the B,a,til.- Gazette. Dispatches were yesterday received at the Ad- miralty trom our squadron off Boulogne, stating the return to port of that part of the enemy's flo- tilla which had come out of the harbour and ranged itself along the coast under the protection of the batteries. c It is understood that the details fur- nished by individuals at Deal and Dover respect- mg the number of the French gun boats, ana the armg between them and our cruisers, have been very much exaggerated.Traveller, Several reports have reached our squadron cruizing off the Texel, brought by pilot-boats, which state, that some. very serious disturbances have broken out between the Dutch and French troops stationed at the Holder, and that upwards of one hundred men had been killed. The Dutch squadron a few days ago loosed their top-sails, and appeared getting under weigh.—All was ready for action on our part in ten minutes; and much disappointed were our gallant tars in f consequence of Mynheer furling sails and re- suming feis situation. The Baron de Hardenberg, who has succeeded Count Haugwitz, as Prime Minister to the King of Prussia, is represented by those who know him best, as a man of very different principles from those which have been generally imputed to him. lie its a nobleman of the most amiable disposition and so far from being partial to the French con- nexion, much advantage to the common cause is expocted to be derived from the wisdom of his counsels. To those who rejoice in the commercial, prospe- rity of the country, it will be satisfactory to learn that the fisheries on the Greenland coast, and the North Seas, have been more successful than on any former occasion: this circumstance, in addi- tion to the happy arrival of our East and West- India fleets, will make the commercial business of the year appear' to great advantage, while our enemies have scarcely a single ship at sea. The cargoes of 24'shipsfitted out at 'Hull for the Greenland whale fishery, consist of 247 whales, 23,659 seals, producing 1686 tons of oil, and 50 tans and a half of fins.The 16 ships fitted out from that port for Davis's Straits, have brought home 150 whales, producing 2089 tons of oil, and 93 tons and a half of fins. The Governor and Legislature of St. Kitt's have resolved to raise a corps of negro rangers, for the purpose of scouring the woods, with a view to the arrest of runaway slaves. His Majesty enjtiys the highest health and spirits at Weymouth, fie .endears himself to every class of his subjects, by the greatest affability and con- descension. His recollection of persons and distant circumstances is as strong as ever. In point of ac- tivity his Majesty has scarce an equal; his hours of repose are very few; and the remaining ones are completely occupied, either in business or, re- creation so that lie cannot ever be said to have an idle moment; for example, on Monday last, his Majesty rose about six o'clock, bathed in a tem- perate bath, was on horseback -before seven, rode several miles to meet the Staffordshire militia, suw i them encamp, and in returning, inspected minutely the camp of the Somerset regiment; returned to breakfast, and at ten went out to sea, where he pre- pared the dispatches of the day, read, dined, &c. came on shore at six o'clock,dressed, and visited the Theatre at seven. There are about 4000 troops in the neighbourhood. The fleet consists, of the Cres- cent and iEolus frigates, a twenty-gun ship, three royal yachts, and several sioops and cutters. lVloNDA Y, Sept. 3. A Gottenburgh mail arrived yesterday, and this morning Paris papers to the 24th ult. were received. Bonaparte was at Boulogne on the 21st, and was expected to remain there several The details of his movements on the.coasi are confined entire- ly to reviews of the troops, and distributions of the insignia of the legion of honour. Admiral Gantheaume has sent an official state- ment of his late attempt to escape from Brest, which was prevented by the activity of our fleet. He states that he is ready to set sail at the first sig- nal, and that his squadreu will in this respect do all that is possible.—There is also a letter from Ad- miral Villeneuve, at Rochfort, giving an account of a late attempt which he made to evade the vigi- lance of the British squadron by which h<? is block- ed up, and the dispatch he made in returning to port as soon as he saw a few of our cruizers.—The last of the naval dispatches is from the famous Latouche Treville, who commands at Toulon; he states that a .part of his fleet has been absolutely cruising for four days, several leagues from land; and though they were a part of the time in sight of an equal number of English vessels, the latter did not approach them A letter froui IlOriènt, August 8, announces the | landing of Madame Lasnes, and two of her chil- dren from a Portuguese frigate,, together with Don Laurehco De Lima/Don Fernando De Lino, and the Secretary and nephew of the Ambassador Don Laurenco, to compliment the Emperor on his ac- cession to the Throne. The Moniteur of the 23d, announces the capture of the lovely Julia, of 116 tons and 6 men, with coals frdm Sunderland to Newhaven; and the Friends, of 135tons and f men, from Dartmouth to Sunderland. An article from Copenhagen, of the 3d August, says that the French Minister from the Emperor of the French ba3 presented his fresh credentials, and has reason to be perfectly satisfied with the obliging things said to him on the part of the Court of Denmark for the Emperor. An article from Frankfort, of the 14th of August, mentions a report that Russia and England have proposed to the (ourtof Vienna, to place an Aus- trian Prince at the head of the Order of Malta, and to establish an Austrian garrison on the island, with troops of the Order levied on all the Com- mandcries that remain. The Russian fleet has received orders to pass the Sound, and cruize in the German Ocean. It is sup- posed, therefore, it will winter in an English port. -A strong Russian fleet will alsocruise in the Me- diterranean. The Porte may make some difficulty at first in permitting more troops to pass the Dar- danelles; but if Russia insist, the Divan must yield. The French are using their utmost efforts to make the Turkish Government jealous of the de- signs of the Court of Petersburgh, and to produce a rupture between, the two powers. But Turkey, though she may be blind to her real interests, can- not tail to see that her power .is wholly inadequate to any contest with Russia. The French them- selves, by sowing discontent and disaffection throughout the Turkish provinces, by encouraging Passwan in his rebellion, and by placing the imbe- cility and incapacity of the Turkish Government in a more prominent point of view than ever it was exhibited in before, have contributed to-produce tiiai. cfrtv-i, r.iavu ciiey now nuu to ue injurious to themselves, insomuch that it has reduced the Porte to a. situation which renders it no longer formidable to Russia. A letter from Petersburgh, dated 14th of Au- gust, says, "The Russian army is supplied with every thing necessary for immediately taking the field. The Emperor, in his present review of the different camps, has made numerous promotions. -Every ,thing indicates the probability of a win- ter campaign, both- by sea and land.-As soon as Bonaparte's ultimatum, which has been categori- cally demanded by. the Emperor, arrives, the poli- tics of this Court will assume a decided tone; and such has been the'prudent foresight of this Go- vernment, that it is prepared to set 300,000 men in motion at an hour's notice." If hostilities actually take place between- the Russians and French, the first blow will, in all pro- bability, be struck in the Electorate yf Hanover. Bonaparte seems to be of that opinion himself, for he is increasing his troops in the Electorate, and at the camp of^eyst, which is the army of re- serve to the Hanoverian army. A considerable en- campment, with a large park of artiller'y, and extensive depots of stores and provisions has been established near Lunenburgh. In the district of Lauenbiirgh, to which great quantities of ammu- nition have been conveyed, a number of regiments have been ordered to assemble; and the camp in the neighbourhood of Utrecht is supposed to con- tain at least from 50 to 60,000 men.—Bonaparte is at the same time providlng forthe expence of these preparations by draining almost the life-blood of the Hanoverians, and by pillaging such of the free imperial cities as have the misfortune to be within his reach. Bremen, after a close blockade of five weeks, has been compelled to submit to the exaction of a loan to the French of one million of rix dollars. The Emperor of Russia, previous to his return to Petersburgh, it was expected, would pay a visit to Louis the XVIIIth at Grodno, to which he has already dispatched one of his principal officers to compliment that illustrious exile on his recent escape, and to make every arrangement that could conduce to his accommodation there. It was un- derstood that his Prussian Majesty had invited him to return to his former assylum, at Warsaw, announcing at the same time, that orders had been issued for-inakitig strict enquiry into the recent conspiracy against his life but the invitation was formally declined. The King of Sweden arrived on the llth in the evening at Ratisbon. —He was to leave it on the 15th for Munich. Talleyrand is returned from the baths of Ar- chambault to Paris. The Minister of Finance quitted the capital on the 21st ult. to join the Em- peror, who was to set out from Boulogne for Aix- la-Chapelle. The description given-of the grand fete of St. Napoleon (the Corsican's birth-day), at Boulogne, appears to have excited great enthusiasm and ad- miration. It was a theatrical piece, got up with the ground-work of the antique, decorated with the ornaments of the gothic ages, and aided by the remembrance of the brightest days of French monarchy.—Such a combination Cpuld not fail to throw a confusion in the ideas of the 100,000 .troops who came already intoxicated with brandy, and happy to find that instead of a. tragical voyage to England, they were to be entertained with so singu- lar a shew. To complete the glory of the daf, a small squadron arrived from Havre, creeping along the coast; and nine vessels that had ventured out of the harbour of Boulogne, were stranded on the shore, but not without hopes of being got off at the full tide! Her Imperial • Majesty the Empress Josephine had nearly met with a serious accident at Baden LID''A wLt Taking a walk, out, accompaiiiad by General Lam- berti, a carriage which the coachman could not .turn"with sufficient facility in one of the streets, C. u I was driven against aiid overturned her Majesty, who, however, received no injury. Egypt is still the scene of hostility between the forces of the Turks and the Mamelukes and Arabs, and the latter expect to obtain possession of Cairo. Great numbers of English vessels have arrived at Trieste, whose cargoes by that channel are to reach Germany. The Dutch squadron under Admiral Hartsink ar- rived at Batavia on the 26th of February last. New-York papers to the 22d. ult. were received this morning. The report of the capture of Cu- racoa by a squadron under the command of Com- modore Bayntun is repeated, but not confirmed.- The two French frigates which have been so long blocked up at New-York, remained there when the packet sailed, closety watched by the Cambrian frigate and driver sloop. Dispatches were yesterday morning received at the Admiralty from Admiral Louis, at Dungeness, dated on Saturday. They state his return to that place late on Friday evening, with several ships un- der his orders, from off Boulogne. Several of the ships have returned to the Downs. The Ardent, of 64 guns, and some more vessels belonging to the ..blockading squadron, were off' Dover yesterday, taking in provisions and stores, preparatory to the resumption of their station off Boulogne. They were expected to sail this morning. v Orders/have been issued to the troops on the Kentish.coast, to be provided with every necessary for marching at an hour's notice. Intelligence was received at the East-India House yesterday, of the safe arrival of the Eliza Ann, Union, and Sir William Pulteiiey extra ships.—On their passage from St. Helena, they fell in with and captured a French privateer, of 16 guns and 68 men. The importation of wheat last week was limited to about 5000 quarters, chiefly from Dantzic.—The prices are falling every where. The prices of refined sugars continue falling.- Irish butter and English hams are rather dearer. TUESDAY, Sept. 4. The Gazette of this evening contains a letter from Mr. Muhgo Gilmor, commander of the Eliza Ann Indiaman, relating the capture of La Venus French privateer of 16 guns and 68 men, as already stated, after an action of 20 minutes, in which the enemy had one man killed and two badly wounded. Brevet.-Colonel Sir Richard Basset, Knt. to be a Brigadier General in the army serving under the command of Lieutenant-General Sir William My- ers in the West Indies.-—Gas. Cornet George Warde Paterson, of the 22d light dragoons, is superseded, in consequence of his having been'engaged in the mutiny at the Royal Military College.—Ibid. Whilst the German papers are affording reason to suppose that the Court of Vienna is reluctant to acknowledge the. new Emperor of the French, a Dutch paper of the 27.th ult. would induce a be- lief that there is no foundation for that supposi- tion-that the delay which has taken place has been occasioned by a negociation and bargain be- tween the two Governments, by which the Empe- ror of Germany consents to acknowledge the French Emperor upon condition, that the French Emperor acknowledges the imperial dignity as permanently attached to and hereditary in the House of Austria. The Hague Courant of the 21th ult. the Dutch pa- per to which we have alluded, announces the im- portant intelligence in the following manner:— Just as this paper was putting to press, we re- ceived letters from Vienna of the 15th, which an- nounce, tnat lU tile late Great Council of State on the 10th, it was determined to publish a patent, ac- cording to which, the Emperor of Germany makes all his titles hereditary in his family, under the ti- tle of 'Emperor of Austria.' The Vienna Court Gazette, which announces this, says, tha new cre- dentials have been sent to Count Cobentzel, as Ambassador to the Emperor of the French." No intelligence has arrived from the French coast this morning—our force in the Downs is in- creasing. Yesterday dispatches were received from .Admi- ral Cornwallis, off Brest, dated the 28th ult. which state," that he had resumed the command of the Channel Fleet, in the Glory of 98 guns; and that six of. the-enemy's large gun-brigs had attempted to escape' iroin Brest. by one of the narrow chan- nelsj supposed for Rochefort; but that, on being discovered, they immediately took shelter, and are now closely watched by the Doris frigate. Advices were received this morning from our squadron off Ferrol and Coruona, which was left all well on the 21st of last month. The enemy had not made any attempt to put to sea. Intelligence has been received, that the crews of the French ships in Brest harbour are in such a state of mutiny, that the officers have been under the necessity of making some severe examples, in order to quell them. Government are removing the French prisoners farther into the interior. In this way, and in this way only, we sincerely believe that a great part of Bonaparte's invading army will penetrate into the heart of the cQuntry The Transport Board has received directions to contract for some thousand tons of shipping, to proceed to Malta immediately, for the purpose, we understand, of carrying out new ordnance, &c. for .the fortifications there, and to bring home the old. By letters from Jamaica, brought by the Hornet, 18 guns, Captain C. Shappard, it appears that La Mignone, 18 guns, Captain Hawker, being on a cruize, was violently struck with lightning; bv which accident the ship was a little damaged, and three seamen were unfortunately killed, and five wounded. Count Zenobio, who arrived in the 14stpackot from Gottenburgh, has been sent out of the king- dom by orders from Government. This day the Lord Mayor ordered the price of bread to be lowered three farthings the quartern oaf; which will be sold for lljd. on Thursday. WEDNESDAY, Sept. 5. The intelligence announced yesterday of Francis II. having assumed the title of Hereditary Em- peror of Austria, is confirmed. The Emperor has only changed the style and title that belonged t6 him as Sovereign of Austria; he has assumed for himself and his heirs the dig- nity and title, of Hereditary Emperor of Austria, instead of that of Archduke of Austria, which he had borne hitherto. The dignity and office of Em- peror of Germany remains exactly as it was, elec- tive. His Imperial Majesty is now Emperor of Ger- many, Hereditary Emperor of Austria, and King of Hungary and Bohemia. In the imperial patent of assumption, his Majesty declares, that for the purpose of establishing durably a perfect equality of rank with the principal governors and potentates, we see ourselves induced to, and justi- fied in assuming for the House of Austria, with re- lation to its independent States, the hereditary title of Emperor, in conformity to the examples afforded in the last century by the Russian Im- perial Court, and at present by the new Governor of France." The example of Russia may be adduced as one worthy of imitation; but that a legitimate mo- narch, deriving his title and possession from a long line of ancestors, should feel that the conduct of who had usurped the throne of -a family equally* Legitimate and illustirous with, and re- lated besides to his own, should be alledged as having imposed upon him the necessity of imitat- ing it,, is a circumstance which we cannot but con- template as a wound inflicted upon the rights of every sovereign in Europe.. We see no reasou why Prussia should not adduce the same motives as Austria, for elevating the House of Brauden- burgh to the imperial dignity. The new letters of credit of his Apostolic, Royal and Imperial Majesty, to the Emperor of the French, will be sent without delay to Count Co- bentzel. • • Couriers were dispatched with this intelligence, which is doubly important in the present conjunc- ture, to Paris and Petersburgh. The measure will probably be productive of other changes in the titles of some of the Co-Estates, and produce an essential change in the Constitution of the Ger- manic Body! Count Stahremberg, the Imperial Minister at bur Court,.received, we understand, a courier from Vi- enna this morning, who brought him the Imperial Patent, declaring the Emperor Hereditary Emperor of Austria, and fresh credentials as Ambassador from his Imperial Majesty in his double imperial capacity. Paris papers have arrived to the 26th, Dutch to the 31st ult. and Hamburgh to the 25th ult.. M.d'Oubril is reported to have had a; conference with Talleyrand immediately after his; return to Paris, and to have demanded his passports. It if. possible that the good understanding which is now proved to exist between the two new Emperors of a Austria and France, will produce some change in the councils and intentions of the Emperor, of Russia. j. A new plan, according to the Dutch papers, lias been formed by Bonaparte, for the purpose of again revolutionizing Italy. The Suit of this day states, on the authority of private letters from Holland, that upon General Marmorrt lately ordering some movemients-to be made, preparatory to the embarkation of the troops composing the camp at. Zeyst, (he having.repeat- ediy boasted of his ability to embark the .whole army in four hours) they peremptorily refused to embark, declaring their willingness to march to any part of the continent, but their firm determi- nation never to quit land. There are now not more, it is said, fhan 18,000 men in the camp the deser- tion amongst the troops has increased to a. most unparalleled degree; in consequence of which the camp is to be broken up. The unwillingness of the troops to embark, arose from a tact which had come to their knowledge, viz. that in the gale of wind in which several of the Boulogne gun-boats were stranded and lost last July, no less than 57Qi soldiers perished.' AdmiralVerbeuiI has obtained from the Dutch Government 5,000,000" of ducats, which had been destined to indemnify the Prince of Orange for the loss of his personai* property in Holland. This money is now to be employed in paying the troops intended for the attack on England.—An opinioa seems to be prevalent in Holland, even among per- sons of high authority, that the Prince of Orange will be restored to the Statholderate, under certam conditions.—Sun. Several ships sailed yesterday for the Boulogno coast—m6re w ill sail to day. An order has been lately issued for the removal of all the heavy baggage belonging to the army on CID 9 the coast into the interior. A code of night signals have been lately esta- blished, and sent down by the Admiralty to the se- veral posts on the heights rovind the coast, a.nd a. cordon of repeating frigates is stationed at con- venient distances. between whom and the shore s ready communication can at all times be kept up by rockets and variegated lamps. Each signal house too is supplied with a stack of furze, which is to be immediately set fire to on the first appearance of alarm, when a. regular correspondence can be car- ried on by means of different coloured lights, with as lhuch facility as in the day time. A very hot press has lately taken place through- out the kingdom.
