In the environt of Niciau the inundations continue. The total amount of the pastures destroyed is esti mated at about - 17,000 francs; the loss in potatoes; and other prodece at 6.000 francs. The streets of the Wets of Nidau are filled with water by the rise of the Mr, and many families have been obliged to trii. their houses. In tl:e Oberland, near Frotigen, the country was covered with snow in the early part of July. Numbers of cattle have been brought down Iron) the mountains into the. values, where great want of forage prevails, and in consequence some of them have perished. All the districts bordering on the lakes of Bienne, Morar, and Neuchatel,have suffered equal losses. The low grounds are under Water, and the course of the rivers is scarcely perceived. l'he village of Lar.deron alone estimates its losses at 24,tr00 fr.

CHINA AND AUSTRALASIA. (FROM A (iCaMAN PAPER.) Two ships in the. Chars trade, lately arrived at Gotrenburgh, have brought very interesting_acconnts relative to Eastern Asia and its commerce. The thyme: which reigned between the English•factory at Macao and the Viceroy of Canton are well known. These have been completely adjusted by the skilful contract of Sir George Staunton ; and 'the Chinese are now more yielding than ever towards the Englid', because they stand in need of their services to protect the toasts against she Pirates, whose principal nest is In the Ladrone Islands, and who are become so dar ing that they once had it in contemplation to attack Macao itself. These sea-robbers are in intimate cons nexion with the insurgents in the Southern provinces of the Chinese empire; they supply all their wants from these provinces, and have there their lurking places and little ports; in fine, they keep ap a corns munication between the Southern and the Northern provinces, where also a spirit of insurrection has here and there shewwitself. fhe Chinese marine is too weak and helpless to opposethem—they could alone .be chastised by English ships of wars but they every year extend their system ; they increase the number of their vessels of war, build better ones, and make such considerable progress in navigation, that they threaten in no long time to become masters of those seas. The English, who had once almost manor). lised the trade to China, have for some time past found a formidable rival in the North Americans.— The latter, with their peculiarly well-built ships, make the voyage both out and home lunch quicker, and can thus afford to sell. Chinese produce tssucis cheaper in the European markets. The Americans bring chiefly peltry from the North-west Coast of j America to China, and exchange it for Chineee pro. duce ; so that they are not under the necessity of paying for every thing with specie brought - from Europe or South America, Since the -restored continental and maritime peace of Europe, other nations begin again to visit China : the Dutch, the Swedes, and the Danes have fitted out Many Chinamen. Another new trading rimer, which for some years has been in communication with China, must not here be overlooked : it is Australasia. The King of Owyhee (where Cook lost his life), a very enter ea:Wog men, has b:ought Ail the Sandwich Islands under his dominion ; the gnglibla have there intro duced manners and language. and a considerable number of English and Amenionn sailors have enter ed his service with p•cultar adrantager. . Ile chased some ships from the Americans, and .aft.r their model has built others at Owyhee :` he is now actually employed in forming a small navy. With his merchant ships he derives a profitable trade to China, by bringing peltry from Codiak to Juakao, and receiving Chinese produce in return. By means' of this intercourse, for which his insular empire is so favourably situated, as well as by tine frequent visits of English and American ships, a wonderful change .has taken place in the S)r.dwich Isles. The Dutch, until tjfe last war. which tank their every name, were the only European nation who could carry on trade' at Nangasaki, in Japan ; they now again attealpt to renew their old connexions.— This, however, is attended with many difficulties, as the most recent accounts received from Japan at Macao speak of approaching disturbances. The lay Emperor Cubo had long. circumscribed the power of the Spi r itu a l D e i ty . Thee .tier has en deavoured by means of the numerous Monks' and Priests to gain the people over to him. and a grnerai, insurrection in the cOunsry was feared. A subver sion, however, of the existing establishments would probably produce a very favuurab:e elitct on the iation at large. TH 14: EVEN I S —"- NI r i al A. It LONDON. FRIDAY, JULY 26, 1416.

Several Paris Journals, and aker them some Ger. roan ones, have related that the Ex General RigauJ, condemned t, death in his absence as being con►icted of having distributed, previously to the 20th Match, 1815, considerable sums of money to corrupt tie troops of his division, had been arrested here oy order o f the Prussian Government for having kept up a criminal correspondence with other relegeesc and that he had been sent to Coblentz, where he had bete I put under the care of the military authorities. These detail) are not exact. It is true that the Ex-General Rigaud has been convicted of keepingep at illicit correspondence with the disaffected, in the interior, and of having publicly communicated it to the other refugees who are here. Upon the Report . which the Commandant made of this to the Prussian Government, .he received orders to, have him con. ►eyed to Wezel ; but, in the mean time, General Rigaud had left this city, and gone to Deux Ponts+ where he still is.
