NAPOLEON, by the Grace of GOD, and the Consti tutions, Emperor of the French, &cc. to all present and to come, greeting : Different questions having ken submitted to us with regard to the condition of Frenchmen established in foreign countries, we have thought it right to make known our intentions on that subject. By our decree of the 6th of April, I SO9, we have already pronounced with regard to such Frenchmen as have b-•rne arms against their country ; and those . who, residing with a Power with whom we go to war. do not gait its territory; or who, being summoned by us, do not obey that order. Bot no law has yet been laid down either with re g Ira to Frenchmen naturalised in foreign countries, with or without our authority, or with regard to suck as may hare already entered, or choose to enter in Ignore, into tlic service of a foreign Power. And as it is not our wish to confound those of our sully cts who are induced from legitimate motives to naturalize themselves abroad, with those whose eon ' duct will assume the character of felony, we have re sol vrd. by these presents, to complete and make known this important branch of legislation. For these reasons, on the report of our Grand Judge, Minister of Justice, and our Council of State, being heard, we have decreed and ordered, and do decree and order, as follows : Tyr La I.—Of Frenchmen oat uralleerl abroad with our permis4ion. Art. t. No Frenchman can be naturalised abroad without our authothy. Our permission shall be granted by letters•patent. drawn up • by our Grand Judie, signed with our hand, countersigned by our Secretary of State, inspected by our Cousin the Prince Arch- Chancellor, inurted in the Bulletin of Laws, and rehistered in the Imperial Court of the last place of domicile of the person to whom they relate. 9 Frenchmen thus naturalised abroad shall enjoy the right of possessing, of transmitting, and of succeeding to property, even when the subjects of the countries where they shall be naturalised do not erjoy those rights In France. 4. The children of a Frenchman burn in the country where ke is naturshzed, are aliens. . 5. Frenchmen naturalised abroad, even with our permission, tan ar no time carry arms against France, under pain of being in dicted in our Courts, and condemned to the punishments enacted in the Penal Code, Book 3d, chap. 71 Trr LE ll.—Of Frenchmen naturalised abroad without our per mission. 6. Every Frenchman naturalised abroad without our perehis don, shall incur the loss of his property, which shall be confis • sited; he shall no longer enjoy the right of succession, and all the succession falling in to him shall pass to the neat heir, provided he is domiciliated in Frarce. • By the 7th, sib, 9th, and loth, it is provided, that by a process instituted in the Courts of Justice, such persons shall lose their titles if they have any, together with the property attached to them, which sh.il devolve to the nearest heir, being French, the rights of the wife being secured, which shall be regulated as in the ease of widowhood. 11. Those who are naturalised abroad without permission, and against whom the above process has taken place, if found in the territory of the Empire, shall, for the first time, be arrested and conducted beyond tke frontiers; if they return, they shall be condemned to a period of imprisonment not less than a year, nor Enure than t 0 years. TivLs lII.—Of Individuals already naturalised abroad. IS. Individuals naturalised abroad at the period of the publica tion of this decree may, within a year, if en the Continent of Europe; within three years, if beyond that Continent; within five years, if beyond the Cape of Good Hope and in the Indies, obtain our confirmation 'according to the forms prescribed in the present decree. 3 . '7 LE IV —Of Frenchmen in the service of a Foreign Power. IS. No Frenchman can enter the service of a foreign Power without oar ~pecial permission, and except under condition of re turning, should we recal him either by a general proclamation or a direct order. 14. Those of our subjects who shall have obtained this permis sion, cannot take the oaths to the Power which they serve, with out a proviso of never bearing arms against France, and of quit ting the service, even without being recalled, should that Power happen to go to war with us. 15. The permi.sion of entering the service of a foreign Power shall be granted by letters patent, according to the forms pre sented in Act Ed. 16. They cannot act as ministers plenipotentiary in any treaty where our interests come into discussion. 17. They must not wear a foreign cockade in countries in sub jection to us, nor there appear in a foreign uniform ; they shall be authori.ed to wear the national colours when in the Empire. 18. They may nevertheless wear the decorations'of foreign or ders, when they shall have received Orin with our consent. 19. They may not enter France but with our special permission. 20. Frenchmen in the service of a foreign power can never be a credited as Ambas-adore, Ministers, or Envoys at our Court, nor received is charged with any kindof mission that would render it necessary for them to appear before us in their foreign costume. It. Frenchmen entering the service of a foreign Power, without oar permission, and remaining in it after war is declared between France and that Power, shall be considered as having borne arms against us, from the circumstance alone of their having continued t o Form part of a military corps destined to act against the French e mpire or its allies. . 22. Our Miniesers are charged, each in big own department, with the execuloo of the present decree. .. .. , - . (Signed) NAPOLEON. Count DA a v, StFret,ry of Stale. NAPLES, AUGUST 15; On the 10th inst. the Neapolitan privateer la Ca roline arrived in this port with the English ship la Gloria Celesta, taken off the Sicilian coast, at the moment when she was leaving the port of Patti, bound to Sardinia. PANSCOWA, AUGUST 16. We learn from Belgrade, that a Turkish corps of nearly 3000 men has crossed the Drina in boats, and encamped - before Losnitza. All the inhabitants of Losnitza and the neighbouring villages fled, some to Schabatz, and others to Bailowa. At the same time all persons fit to bear arms were formed into corps, and are marching in haste to Losnitza, to drive the Turks from Servia. BAYONNE, AUGUST 26. For some time past there have been considerable' movements among the troops stationed in the north of Spain, and of which the numbers have been aug mented. A neiv army of reserve is forming in the northern provinces of Spain, and we are assured that it will march forward as soon as its organization shall be entirely completed, and will shortly occupy Old Castile. A part of the army of the north has advanced into the provinces of Leon and Salamanca, and has push ed on to the frontiers of the northern part of Porto gal. Its head-quarters are at Valladolid, but it is be lieved that they will speedily be transtetred to Sala manca. The division of French troops forming part of the army of Portugal, under the orders of the Duke of Ragusa, which atter the departure of the latter for Estremadura remained in the province of Salamanca, has also begun its march for the banks of the Gua• diana, where it will rejoin the army to which it be. longs. We are assured that the garrison of Ciudad Rodrigo has received the same destination. All these troops have been replaced by a corps of the army of the north. It appears from the latest accounts from E.strama. Jura, that hitherto nothing very important has oc curred there. The French troops continue to occupy the positions which they took after the retreat of the English, and the deliverance of Badajoz. They are masters of both banks of the Guadiana. The can tonments of the army are very extensive, a circum stance which prevents it from suffering much from the extra-rdinary heat of this summer, and occasions its having very few sick. At the s.:me time we learn that the positions of the English troops, and of the Portuguese and Spaniards with which they are combined, are very circumscri bed, because the enemy's Generals expect every ;no tnent to he at.acked by the French ; and from this cause ahne, epidemic diseases make great ravages among their troops. Lord Wellington must at last ' , have formed a resolution to change the position of his army. Andalusia continues to enjoy the greatest tranquil lity. Public feeling is there very good ; the agents of insurrection find that it is a soil not at all favoura ble to them. The force employed in the siege of Cadiz has been lately augmented. That siege is about to be pushed with new vigour, from which the happiest results are expected. All accounts from Spain agree in announcing that misunderstanding runs very high between the Eng lish and the Spaniards at Cadiz, of which the English wish to take entire possession, under pretence that they have reason to fear lest that city should other wise fall into the hands of the French. The bombard ment of Cadiz has recommenced. The partial destruction of the bands of brigands is proceeding in all quarters with activity and success. On the 13th instant, the Chief of Battalion Fournealix dispersed a column of 1000 men of the bands of the Empecinado, killing or taking about 200 of his men, and 300 English muskets quite new. Abril was wounded, and lost 40 men, in attempting to attack an escort at Ontonares. Belianos the younger, who had succeeded his bro ther in the command of the bands which infested the Gariga, perished on the 21st in an ambuscade ; and of all his band, attacked by General Henriot, only eight men escaped. Since the capture of Tarragona the army of Cam po Verde has been incessantly porf.ited and haras+cd on all sides ; it has dispersed into small bands, which are destroyed by the attacks which are successively made upon them ; Campo Verde himself, to save his life, has abandoned his army.

Opper, ulso a cabinet courier tOr Dresden, and Madame the Princess Gallitzin with her suite, on her return to Russia, have pist passed through this town. PARIS, SEP CENIRAR 8. The funeral of the Count de Bougainville took place yesterday. I.).:tachments of the garrison of Paris accompanied the pri;cession, which was very numerous. His remains were deposited at St. Ge nevieve. A long article under the head of Rome, after de scribing the improvements of agriculture and mann ' factures which are to take place in the Roman terri tory, proceeds thus : " Such are the benefits by which the junction of Rome to the Empire is signalized 1 All kinds of in dustry invited and encouraged by the Government, give to the Romans a new existence. Their city, placed in the centre of a rich territory, traversed by a river, which gives it a communication with the sea; Rome forming, as it were, the intermediate point be tween the kingdom of Naples and that of Italy, is invited to become a city of important commerce.— The Emperor will be its second founder, by giving it more solid foundations th in those factitious and ei..'nemeral resources of which the progress of intellect and of civilization most sooner or later have depriv ed it." The Journal du Commerce, of the 30th tilt. contains the f)llowing paragraph with regard to this country : " To the consternation which the King's malady diffuses i t England, is joined, at this moment, the distress of the British nation. The inhabitants are putting up prayers for peace ; but they can no longer conceal from themselves, that peace is not to be made but on conditions which it shall please France to dic tate. The King's recovery is quite despaired of ; it is even reported this evening, that an aqvuut of his death has been received." ' THE LTV ENINO STAR. LONDON. TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 10. PRICE.

Princess Sor►IJA is a little better of her cold, but not well enough to leave the Castle. We have received Paris Papers to the 7th instant, from which we have made some extracts, but they convey no information of importance from the Penin sula. It is evident, however, that the French armies stand in need of reinforcements, and that arrange• ments are making for supplying them, a new army of reserve having been formed in the north of Spain. General Sebastiani arrived at Paris the latter end of August ; but the object of his visit to the capital is not mentioned. It has been for some time reported, that a serious disagreement exists between him and Marshal Victor. Letters are said to have been received yesterday from the French coast, stating that an official com. munication had been published by the French Go vernment, declaring Dantzic to be entirely open to a free trade and unrestricted commerce, with the ex ception of English merchandize ; that the Custom house duties were diminished one-third ; and that the King of Prussia had it in cont!mplation to follow this example in the reduction of duties in his ports. The CADMUS, which atrived at Plymouth on Satur day, has brought a confirmation of the account in the French Papers of two of our frigates, the SESIIDANIIS and DIANA,. having appeared off hour deans, where they hoisted French colours; and hav ing answered the Commodore's private signals, he, (thinking they were the two French frigates expected to return from the Isle of *France), went off in his barge to meet them, nor did he discover his mistake till himself and boat's crew were made pris.mers.— Our two frigates, having the French Commodore on board, stood into the outer harbour unmolested, and m thence cut out a gun-brig (formerly die Teaser Eiiglish vessel), and four merchantmen, which they brought out without sustaining any loss. They also drove a corvette on shore. The Catherine Augusta, an American brig from a French port, with silks, wines, &c. was taken of Cor sica, by the Acasta frigate, and has been brought into Portsmouth. The American ship Oliver Elsworth has been detained, and sent into Deal. No account of the surrender of Monte Video, on which reliance may be placed, has yet been received, but such information may be very soon expected, and in the mean time we have been fav mred with some oflicial particulars of the operations in the neighbour hood of the fortress, from which we have selected the following : " Most Excellent Sir—Having observed that the garrison daily endeavoured, supported by the batteries and armed laur•.ches, to plunder for wheat and provisions, the suburbs of Monte Video, I •took measures to prevent it. " On the 4th of June, at eight in the morning, the enemy, In pursUance of such a design, pushed onward from the fortress in two columns, to the ■umber of SOO men. The troops I had planted in ambuscade continued for two hours in action with them under a heavy fire of musketry, as well as from the bat te►ies and launches. The result was the complete triumph of our troops, to whom this duty was assigned, many of the enemy were killed and many more wounded. " Another contest about the same time took place with the forces under Captains Don Baltuzar Bargus, and Don baltuzar Ggeda, winch was yet more destructive to the enemy. " Goo preserve you, Ste.
