Covina. however, being (truck with re-i 'Doric, made a difcovery of the whole affair, and gave up the packet containing the carrots. Theft Were examined by two phyficians and an apothecary of Warfaw ' and found to be filled with erratic. The Count de Lissa, (portly before his departure for Grodno, wrote letters on this fubjett on the a4th, eth, and ath of July, to the Count de Horst, and the Prefident de Ti Ler ; and his Pat/seism Ma yes-Tv has now given orders, that the affair Mall be examined in the droftefl manner.

Gs roe, AuctusT a.—The Englith fleet, under the command of Lord Nst,son, blockades our harbour very clotily, and is refolved to attempt the deftroc dos of the three (hips of war, which are building here for the French. CONSTANTIMILI, Joys to.—The Wechabi, who were tuppofed to be entirely dellroyed or difperfed, have appeared again in Arabia with new force.— The young Abdul Wechab aes as fucccfor to his father, who was affaMnated, and has undertaken the liege of Bufforah, though without fuecefs ;—upon which be turned his arms againfl Mafcate, laid wattle ti-e plain country, and took poffeffion of the maritime places which lie between thole two cities. His fol. lowers have alfo obtained an advantage over the Pacha of GeJda, who had marched again( them.— This unexpefled difagreeable intelligence has made a great impreffion on the Grand Seignior, who has in eonfequence written a very warm le:ter with his own hand, to to the Grand Vizier, in which he re proaches Lim with having neileSed to employ the necefl'ary means for the extirpation of the Wechabis, the enemies of the Mahnmetan religion ; and to fe cure the holy cities of Mecca and Medina from their attacks. He commands him immediately to take the meta effeßual meafires ; and has appointed a for mer Pacha, who has hitherto refided at Aleppo, to be Pacha Gedda, and Cemmander of the troops all Ambled in that vicinity.

According to report, his Swielell MAIRITY in• tends, before the end of this month, to return to his country. Avousr 4.—The day before yellerdayi the French Ambaffador and Con:dello, of State CHAIIPAGIVIT, celebrated his appointment of Grand Officer of the Legion of Honour by a fumptuous dinner,which was attended by the principal Officers of our court and date. On the 18dr of July, Semendria was furrendered by famine to the Servian Infurgents. and the armed Turks, to the number of four hundred. having laid down their arms, were fent to Belgrade.. Aua. 9.—The French Ambaffador here has re ceived a courier with difpatches from Paris, immedi ately after whole arrival he had a confidential confer ence with the Minifter of State Count Coavarzsz. The difpatches of this courier relate to the acknow ledgment of the new French Imperial dignity, The Archduke Cm aaces has been attacked with an indifpofition, which, however. is but (light, though it will prevent him from going to the camp at Pell g bat hie Royal Messed will side the camp near Brunn and Prague. Baste oe yes Mates, Ago. 7.—According to our journals their MAJZITIIIS will let nut from Munich, on their return to Swedes, in the eourfe of the prefent month. The Tyrolefe militia, which is now formally or ganized and divided into four regiments, confide of so,ooo men. AUGUST 10.-.• The public journals again repeat the accounts before publifised, that the Ruffian Chargl-14aita at Pasta, M. d'Ouatts., has given in a declaration from his Court, requiring the evacu ation of the territory of Hanover, and of the Nea politan States ; an indemnification for the ring of flatmate, &c. arid that this declaration has been feat to the French Emperor at Boulogne. The fame journals Rate, that the Court of Vienna exerts itfelf to accommodate the mifunderitanding between Raffia and Frince. On the t intl. the French Colonel SiIIaSTIAIII arrived at Munich. HAGUI, AUGUST I I.—Every thing belonging to the flotilla at Flulbing has been fent away from thence for the French harbours. The fortifications of Fluth ing, under the apprehenfion of an attack from the Enflifb, are very much augmented. Since the late inundation of the camp near Zeyll, the. Minifter of our War Department. Preset,- has Tinted it. He has returned, but Meffrs. HMIIIIOI7I and GOCILINGA, two of the Members of our Direc tory, are now infpetling it. AUGUST t4.—General MAILSIONT is gone from the camp at Zeyft to the Emperor at °Rend. Daring his *Vence. General Gat:wear will command in the camp. Whether the Emperor will wilt it, is not yet determined with certainty. The camp, with all the appuitenances and defenfive works with which it is provided, bas more the appearance of a fortified town than a camp. The Ambaffador, Scams. ME. who is now at Antfterdarn, and from thence will make a journey to Overyflci, has been appointed by the French Emperor a Member of the Legion of Ho nour. Several other perfons in the Batavian and Italian Republics, will receive the fame ditlinilion. The Senator Guitar, Grand Officer of the Le- gion of Honour, is now at the Hague. The Commanders of the Englilh (hips now eruiz• ing nn our coafla have received orders to take all Dutch fchuyts that are decked, and make priforras of their crews. Yalerday an Englith fri• gate appeared off Scheveningen—difplayed a flag of truce, and warned all Mermen not to fail in decked •effels. Oi:r•6thermen who were before taken are Rill detained in England, bud money has been collated for them in Holland. Am STEAD/AM, Auc. 14.—According to official ac counts from Batavia of the zoth February, the Bel tavian fquadron under the command of Admiral Hatvsiace, had arrived there in good condition. The Ambaador, SCIIIMMI•LPINNIVICK, has re ceived permiffion from our Government at the Hague, with which he has had a long conference on ' the prefent Rate of affairs, to wear the (tar of the Legion LI Honour, for which he erpreffed his thanks to the Government: his Lady has come with him to Holland. He will return to Paris previous to the coronation of the Emperor. General MaallIMIT has been fent for to Dunkirk by the Emperor to have a conference with him. The camp at Zcyll sill be reinforced with more troops. PARIS, Ave. to.—Travellers from Boulogne fay, that the firtt divifion of the troops there is already embarked. No !scam can be abfent from his corps an intlant. All the troops have orders to be ready to embark in 14 hours. Since the Emperor has ar rived at Boulogne, four couriers have been difpatch ed to the North. It is faid, that the Emperor will not leave the coati before the whole expedition has fsiled. The general opinion is, that it will be imme diately unlAtAlten. The Mini.tcr, Tat. o, is eIIFICaCd to return from the Baths, withiq ten clays. The Imperial AmbAirador, Count CosssT ILL. has left this coy, to pay TA,L,•II,IIIID a vslit at his elate, Valency. It is fast!, that Gescral CmittocoviT, who to:k tike Duke of Elusions, at Ettenheins,, has died fad dcnly at Boulogne. The troops on the reel are regslarly eighteen hours in the twenty-four under arms r and the Em peror often cornmaods them in perfon, for lix or eight hours together. Tbofe on board the flotilla manenvre from four o'clock in the morning to eight o'clock in the ereniog. The following particulars are to be added to what we have heard of the Englith bombardment of Havre;—" It is to the two gun boats, and eight other weird,. which failed out, carrying 24 -pounders, that we owe the falvatinn of the town. A bomb fell upon the hook of Mr. FILM, II relative to the Ma rine Prefer% FOLFAIT, and penetrated-through each Amy of the building. Another bomb made a dread ful eiplofion in a houfe appropriated for boarding young ladies, all of whom were happily abfent. A foldier silo received a dangerous wound in the head, from the falling of a tile from the roof of the prifon, loofened by a bomb. During the three hours, the period of the bombardment, the troops patrolled the beets with buckets of water, while the fire engines were kept in readinefs to play. " The emigration from Havre was fo great, in eon fequence of the late bombardment, sad the expeda thin of another vifitation. that the Prefect Foarair, found it neceary to prohibit the departure of the in habitants, le* the place Ihould be wholly deferred by them." Literates, Ave. t+—According to the latch ac counts from Warfaw the dory of the attempt to poi• fon the Count de Lii.La and his family, on a more drift examination, proves to be the invention of the billiard-table keeper Cous.ow, with a view to obtain money. He and his wife are Invited ; and we shall probably loon learn more of the particulars. LONDON. MONDAY, AUGUST 17. MUCK OF STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONR O'CLOCK: Confab, 37f—Redoeed 371.-01nniurn qt.

Lord KEITH has returned to the Downs in the Mo Ilmten, after having waited the fquadron off Bou logne, and made his °Venation* upon feveral parts of the enemy's coat. The Dutch fleet in the Texel is whiny prepared to put to fea, and from tome demonarations that it has lately made, fuch an attempt was confidered by the mod experienced officers in our blockadingiqua dron as momentarily likely to take place.

Two Hamburgft 'mails arrived yefterday. They do not confirm dm account before received of Ruffian troops baying been landed at Copenhagen. They 1 1 mention the appearance of a Ruffian fleet in that quarter, but Rate there were no troops on board.— The fleet confill. of nine fail of the fine, and fevers' frigates. It reams now extremely probable, that Axixasola will loon declare openly his intention of refilling by force the ambitious projeas of the French ruler, and we may loon expel his R eet to co-operate with ours. Indeed, we know that at this momenta great num ber of water-cafks are preparing at Deptford, for the Ruffian fhips. At leak Inch is the belief of the of ficers there refpeding their intended ufe. It was at one time intended to fend about too of our coopers to prepare the calks in the ports of Ruffia, the Rut. flan artifans being very defdlive in this kind of work t but it was after wards judged better to prepare them here, and keep our workmen at home. It is alto currently reported, that on Satnrday or ders were fent to Chatham to prepare for victualling a Ruffian rquadron. Accounts from Germany Rate, that the Ruffian Chargé d'Affaires at Paris, M. d'Ouaatr., had given in a Declaration f►om his Court, infifting on the eva cuation of Hanover and the Neapolitan States, and an indemnification for Sardinia, &c. This is very probable. Thefe are the points of detail which the Mathew peevilbly alluded to in a late article, as hav ing been brought into dircuilion by Ruffia. In the temper which the EM►saoa of Russia has lately 'fbewn, and on the fyllem which he has teemed to purfue, there points of detail will not be fo eaflly abandoned, or allowed to °cep, as they have hitherto been. If they are rejeaed, as they are likely to be, the Era's aoa of Russia will make there, and other grounds of complaint, againit the French Emperor, the rubjed of a Manifetin. It was reported thlt M. d'Ousait had quitted Paris; but no mention of that fad is made in the lama foreign journals. It is dated, but with what truth we know nor, that the Court of Vienna labours to reconcile the differ 'Mtn between France and Rana. We donht this ; r.t ledd it would be very difiniereled. Au!ilia, ac. cording to the common feelings of States, would not b: furry to fee Fiance and Kafir, mutually weak:a ing and haralring each other, while fie herielf was re. pairing her leas; and recruiting ker ftreogth.. It teems that fregolnt conferences take place at Vienna Law= the Ftench AmbatEador and the Im. perial Waiflen on die (tibial of recognizing t.;e perial dignity of Narorami, which the Im,rerial R. man Court (as the German Gazettes call it for dif sialion) has not yet done. The giro and Q V IN of Swarms were to fet ont from Munich on their return home in the courfe of this month. A letter from Warlaw, of the ph, at length men; lions the plot to affaffinate bins XVIII, and Oates that his Prutfian Majefty has gi% CP orders to exAniine into the affair in the drifted manner. On the other band, a letter from Leiptig hates, that on a more drift examination the whole has been proved an in. vention of the billiard-tahle keeper and his wife. Mod people. however, will be inclined to believe the latter a fabrication for the purpole of removing the odium from the French name ; for i: is inditimtable that the Pruffian Officers, at Warfaw, were guilty of a breach of duty, in not taking up the butinefs and arrelling the Cul - petted perfuns when application for that purpofe was made to them. If they do not clear themfelves, the King of Pruffia Ihould remove them from their places with Come fignal expreffion of his aitpleafure. We mud obferve, however, that it is libelous and fcandalous to involve the Pruffian Court, particularly the King, perfonally in the dif. credit of the late affairs at Warfaw, fince it is impof. fible that M. M. Horn and This could have sided by any fpecific ioltrultions. As the matter now Rands, they are grofsly culpable in refuting to invef tigate a mondrous crime, Co formally and by fuels high authority denounced to them. Accounts from Italy of the 9th date, that part of Lord Ne Limes fquadron was blockading the harbour of Genoa ; and that an attempt was to be made to dedroy three (kips of war, built there for the French. We hope the enterprise will prove fuccefsful. The report of the capture of one of the Huge: Wands, by Lord Nassoa, is not confirmed. The Turkith Empire is again diftraded in the Bad by the Wechabis, under the conduit of Abdul We ambit Con. The fanatics, meeting with but feeble refidasce, may become very formidable to a political. body, falling to pieces from its own weakacfs. Egypt Rill remains in a diftraded date, Syria Is the hens of rebellion. lfrael Pacha. the providonel ihcceiTor of Dgesaar Packs, of Acre, rehires to yield up his authority to Ibrahim Pacha, who bits been appointed by the Porte. On the fubjea of invalion we find little in the fo reign papers, sad that little of courfe a near three weeks old. It is Rated that the Err Altal Nereasow. previous to his leaving Boulogne, on his tour along the cod!, told the troops that they were to bold them• Pelves in readinefs to emba-k on a minute's warning. They were gratified at the fame time with a donative of a few days pay. It was reported that Bomar ARTS would not return to Paris till the grand expedition bad been fent off, The general belief, however, was, that every thing vas ready. Three weeks, wa know, have fince elapfed, and nothing dope. 4 1 1sto the nor samt's movements, whether he be mil on the oppofire coati or hes returned to earls, doesnot fees° to be afcertained. It was reported yenerday that an embargo had been laid in the ports of Holland, to prevent our Government from receiving intelligence of the failing of the expedition, and that they were in expedation of an attempt being toade without more delay. It certainly is very pollible that it may be made, and precaution &Quid be taken accordingly. An Artillery Company is now forming, to be at itched to the Royal Marines. -- - - Tuefday Taft the celebrated caulk io which Mr. Hurc MN% is plaintiff, and Lord BANTRY is defen dant, was heard at Cork before the Hon.

It is dated eight days later than that brought by Col. Hoomror, but is not fuppoied to contain any news of importance. The arrival of the (hip Euphrates at Madras, is con firmed. The packet is charged with duplicate; of former difpatches. The Ayr re um: e. which convoyed the outwards bound China Fleet, carried a letter, accompanied with fuitable prefents, from his Melasyv to the Emperor of Crime, which are, no doubt, intended as the over ture for a future emhafTy to the Court of PAUL — Many prejudices. it feems, formerly entertained in that country agiiinft the Cngli(b charafter, have been removed fince the fplendid embaly of Lord Meceiti mbr, and we have long been the favoured nation at Canton. The benefits that would arife to Great Sri- Lain, from a commercial treaty with that extenfive and populous Empire, are incalculable. Acco•ints from Calcutta, dated in May lag, late, that the French hare been endeavouring to influence the King of Ave againfl the Englith ; but failing is los, they then exerted themselves to obtain a I tile ment in an aUvantageous fituation on the coati of Pegu, under a pretence of prepating a cimmodione port for their trading v-Bets on the reltoretion of peace, which they formally der! imd to be in contem plation of the powers of Europe.
