The Journal of Commerce has jail made public an Imperial Decree, relative to the furcign merchants. It is in there terms : " The Mini(ler of Commerce, agreeably to the Ukafe )?f the Dire&ing Senate, communicated tohim on the t Bth of July, informs the body of foreign mer chants, that fuch of them as are defirous of becoming Ruffian fubjeCts, mutt declare in the petition which they addrefs to him on the fubjeCt, whether they enter into thefe new engagements for all their chil dren, or only fume of them, in conjunftion with themfelves, or whether their children hill remain in the number of foreigners?" An imperial Ukafe grants to the widows of the general officers and fuperior officers. who fell during the late campaign, a pention fur life, equal to the full pay of their htribands ' with a reverfon, in cafe of their death. to their male iffue, till they have at tained their 16th year,. provide) they have not en tered before that period into the military fervice. M. Letfep4, the Conful of France, who left this place on the breaking out of the war, returned the day before yeflerday, tp this capital. ' 1 MEMEL, AUGUST 14. The King has eltablifhed here a commiffion of ge neral liquidation ; all the inhabitants have received notice to give in their accounts, not only of the fup plies they have furnifhed the Ruffian army, but alto an eftimate of the loffes of every kind which they m•ry have Whined. To all the miferies which war has left behind it in this wretched country, is now added a very danger. ous epidemic difiemper among the horned cattle—it has already extended to Lithuania. This calamity has occafioned feveral ordinances, directing that the carcaffes of heath, which die of this dillemper l be removed from the houfes and buried. The furelts and woods have been laid wafl e to loch a degree, during the ftay of the immenfe belligerent armies in our territory, that there is reafon to ap- prehend a fcarcity of fuel the enfuing winter. LINZ, SEPTEMBER I. His Majefty the Emperor goes very often from the Palace of Lasenburg, where he refides, to the capital. to be prefent at the Council of the Minifiers, which very frequently affembles. Prince Kurakin, the new Ruffian Ambaffador, has frequent confe rences with the Minifier, Count Stadion. The mifunderllanding which has arifen between the Court and the States of Hungary is not yet ac commodated : on the contrary, it appears to be daily afitrming a more ferious charaaer. One of the molt diflinguithed Auflrian Generals, who happens to be a Member of the Diet, which has declared (trpngly againft the Cabinet of Vienna, has been, by the Em peror's command, (truck out of the lift of the Gene rals, and d:prived of all his employments. The Im perial Decree relative to this fohjcet ha s been offi cially communicated to the army of Hungary. General Lattermann has been appointed by the Emperor Commander in Chief in Sclavonia. VIEVNA, SEPTEMBER 1. The marriage of his Majefty, with the daughter of the Archduke Ferdinand of Milan, will be cele. brated on the 4th of Oelober, the day of the inau. guration of the Statue of Jr:feph 11. and not on the loth of November, as the public prints have an nounced. It is likewife afferted that, at the time of his marriage, our Monarch will caufe. himfelf to be crowned Emperor of Aufttia. The Archduke Fran. cis, brother of the future Emprefs, will efpoufe the Archduchefs Maria Louifa, eldeft daughter of his Majelly. An Archduchefs of Ruffia is &flitted for our Prince Royal. An extraordinary Council of State has been held relative to the propofals fubmitted by the Diet of Hungary to hisMajefly. Great aftivity has been, for Come days, nbferved in the Chancery of State, in the department for Foreign Affairs. SFPTEMSER 2.—A1l the troops which formed the cordon on our frontiers, have now returned to their refpeelive garrifons. The various difporitions of our Court announce its reliance on a durable peace. The fucceflive reduelion which is about to take place in our army, will, it is faid, amount to 100,000 men. Letters from Koningiberg, which have arrived here. announce that the Frunian Minittry has been pally arranged. M. de Gotz will retain the admi niltratinn ot F•reign Affairs, and M. de Stein has undertaken that of the Finances. The latter ap poinment has occafioned general fatisfaftion, that Minifter being cinfidered as one of the molt enlight ened men, and one of the moll upright charaelers in Pruffia, who has always maintained the opinion, that i was the inteten of his country to maintain an inti. mate viatica; n with France. The Ex Miniller:Hardenberg, has not thought fit to continue in Ruf fi a ;it is even affertecl, that be could 'not obtain permann to repair to Peteilburgh, and that he intends to retire to Denmark. It is very true that he has married his minters, who was an aarefs of Leiplick , a the name of Schonmann, with whom be had been conflated alrupit eight Tears. SEPTIMBFR tz.—The dqy before yeflerclAy his Istajefty w.thdrew from this city to Saltaburgh that Duchy being . now npop ;be Carne footing as the tell of the Aullr jan provinces.

SEPThMBER 15.—1 t is reported that the prefent feffion of the Legiflative Body will dole on the 18th inftant. It is Paid that the Council of Station will have a vacation of one month from the to of Oftober. It appears that the Court will remain Come days longer at Rambouillet. Lait I'hurfday his Majefiy went on board a Venetian gondola, richly fitted up, and took the diver firm of thocting on the canals in the park. The next day there was a grand chafe in the woods belonging to the domains of the Crown. At eleven in the morning all the equipages were at the appointed rendezvous. The inhabitants of the vicinity, airembled from the defire of feting his Ma jelly, impatiently awaited his arrival—but the Em. peror, who was engaged ever fince the morning in his Cabinet s did not leave the Palace till four in the afternoon. His Majelly, the Emperor of Rufiia, having fent his butt is marble, a very linking refemblance, and of exquifite workmanfhip, to the Emperor Napoleon, orders have been given for feveral of the kind, to the manufatiory of Sevres. SEPTEMBER I6.—The Court returns to-morrow to St. Cloud. There will be in the morning, a Council of the Miniflers, and in the evening a tragedy. The Court remained twelve days at R.ambnuil'et. The Prince Primate, the Grand Duke of Wurtz burg, and the Prince of Defrau, partook of the di• vet lion of the chafe feveral times with theirMajellies. Yeflerday, at the meeting of the Legiflative body, the fobjed of the budget was refumed. M. Arnauld went through the vari , ms items of the public reve nue and expenditure, and concluded with the fol lowing obfervations " Advantages fo fignal arc marked by the finger of genius !

" Who has forgotten the falfe prophecy of an orator celebrated for his vehemence.—of Burke ? • I CAft my eye over the map of Europe, and I behold not one tingle power that can give you the (mail& uneafincfs,' Paid that Orator to the Parliament of England. ' I perceive,' continued he, • one great blank, one chaftn—'cis the (pace formerly occupied by France.' " Let Burke raife his malignant head from the tomb; let him raft his cye nr; over the map of one fingle country, but over the whole horizon of the globe ; and he will fcc what bitter fruits this ambitious and fanguinary policy has procured his country. He will hear, from the remoteft limits of Afla, to the leaft inhabited wafts of America, and even to the icy regions of the Pole, one univerfal cry of indignation and hoftility againft the antiquated ',retentions of the • Cabinet of London to the dominion of all the leas. He will behold the two great Emperors of the North and of the South offering t o maids Alnion the olive of peace, as the price of the enfratichifcment of the Navigators of all nations. _ . _ _ " Let Burke rife from his tomb—let hint examine the ftate of the finances of his country, the ofeillatiot s of opinion, the agitation cf the public mind, the tyro billion/ of a.litualexpences, the fifteen billions of national debt, the ;so millions of poor's rates, and the internal lituation of Ireland : Ict him then contemplate France, her prodigious and peaceful population, her raft agricultural and eom• mercial refources, rvitli a cunitant public revenue of 7co millions, and a rerpaiial debt of only 75 millions.. . " Let Burke rife from his tomh.--Itt him tell thofc men who In fluence the Councils of his nation, that the dodrine of wars of ext. rmination which Le profeffed, has aecunvelated all the cala s ready to barn. over England ; that her uratitime and poli- tical fyttem, eflabliflied two ettiturits aoo, whets all Europe was lulled into a lethargy with refped to its true intercits, mutt now be modified; that every nation now knows the nature of its rights and the efficacy of Its means, in peace as well as in War. " Let Bake expatiate, if it be putEhle. by this great truth, feafon. ably told,the incalculable evils which he has brought upon mankind, by becoming fubfervient to the deftrudtive policy of the minifters of bis tittle ; and let his tomb dote upon him again for ever! " M tor you, Gentlemen, ftiorg in your confidence in Napo leon the Great, you will ftrice to ((coati his views of improvement for our financial (yams.

" 1 Lave the honour to propofe to the Legillazive Body the adop don of the project of the law for the Budget of 184." No orator of the Tribunate or of the Council of State making any reply, the dilcuilion was doled. Sspr, zz.—The privateer Efpoir, of St. Valery, has fent into.La Hogue two Englith brigs, the Wit• ham and the Northumberland, of Portimluth ; be. fides a third prize fent to blarcouf, or Grandcamp. MADRID, AUG. t 6.

Don Juan de Galiarno, and Don Alonzo de Fiat hare beta made Mdtfhals. ROME, AUG. VS. There is no foundation for the report pnblilhed in feveral of thc j lurnals, that the Cardinal Duke of k bequeathed, at his death, a legacy of four millions to the King of Sardinia, bcfides All his titles and his rights to the Crown of England. According to the dying injunctions of this 101 l and illuftrious branch of the Stuarts, his teftamentary difpofitions are not to be made known till fix months after his death. BAYONNE, SEPT. 4. General _Timm arrived at nine o'clock lail night in this city, and this wining a difchargc of 13 gun* announced this news to the inhabitant. The civil and military authorities are gone to vifit him. This morning arrived here the aid Regiment of the lint, the Ili and ad battalions of the South, and the tll Hanoverian battalion, the men of which are remarkable for their tall nature. General Junot propofes to review thefe corps, which are to let out on the 6th for their cantonments in the neighbour hood. SEPT. 7.—General Jonot fet out yefterday on a little tourin the place, where the troops are to be cantoned, which marched yellerday towards Orthes, and other points in the department. VEN:CE, SEPT. 4. We are affured that the Ruffian troops which lately governed Cartaro and the Seven Hands will loon arriiie here, and proceed to their !mil country b? the way of Germany. As there is merely an armiiiice concluded between the Ruffians and the Porte, the latter will not-allow the troops of the forinr to re- turn by the Pardanelles and the Crimea. The voy age by the Straits of' Gibraltar, the Atlantic, the North Sea, and the Baltic would be too tedious, at this advanced leak.' of the year, and perhaps c,.141d not, but with great difficolty, be aceoropiithed in the 'nfant political circumflances of Europe. TRIESTE, SEPT. 4. The fate of Ragufa is decided. General Nominal arrived in that city on the 14th ult. immediately aftembled the Members of the Government, and ac quainted them that the republic of Ragufa now be longed to France, and that it, a; well as Dalmatia, thottld be henceforth united with the kingdom of Italy. This information caufed great joy to all the inhabitants, and particularly the commercial part of them. General Laurifton is appointed Governor of Ragufa, and of the whole of Albania. The difagreeable intelligence has reached us that the Englifh, who for this fortnight have left our coafts, have taken 13 vac's from Cattaro, Corfu, Zante, Stc. bound for this port, and laden with oil, wine, raifins, and other commodities of the Levant. They advance ' as a pretence for this violence, that fince Cattaro and the republic of the Seven Ulan& have been taken poireffion of by the French, they mita treat them as hoßae territories. The laft accounts from Conllantinople, of the ;4.th of Augull. afure us that negociations for peace are earneftly going on in the camp of the Gt and Vizier• Scar. f.—The ('mall franc() Italian flotira has lately failed from the port of Venice, and cast anchor before Malamacco, near Chiozza. We are ansious to knew whether die Englifh frigate which cruizes in thtfe leas will dare to snake an attempt on this flotilla. AUGSBURG, SEfTBMBER iB. From Vienna, of the loth, we learn, that accord ing to the Military Almanack, jolt publithed, the following is; cone& ftatement of the Atiftrian army: The Archduke Charles, Generaliffimo ; 6 Field Marthals ; 33 Generals of cavalry, infantry, &c. ; tz t Lieutenant Field Marfhals, and 251 Major Ge nerals. including nine Grand Crcffes, and 241 Com manders and Knights cf the Order of Maria Therefa.

Their r.umher has fince been increafed to 6000, and General Dumoulin is Commander in Chief. French Commitfatties arrived at the fame time with them, who immediately laid every (hip in the har bour under an embargo in order to Peek for Englifb goods. The merchants and factors all through Etruria have alto been called upon to give an account of the Englith goods ip their potTelGon. The Engin at Leghorn will fuftain an incalculable lots, as by means of neutrals they have for tome years pall car. vied Q 0 a trade all over Italy. FRANCRPORT, SEPT. 7. Intelligence has juft been received, that the Em peror Francis I. will cattle himfelf to be crowned Emperor of Ataltia, in the month of November next, political events having retarded the ceremony till that time. It is laid that his Imperial Highnefs the Are,- duke Charles will be inveaed, at the fame time, with a new dignity. Great preparations are making at Vienna for the Emperor's nuptials. The jewels of the late Emprtf. have been valued by command of his Majelly ; their eftimated worth, forming a very cnnliderable fum, has been divided among the Archrhicheffes her daughters, and the jewels themfelves will be given to the new Emprefs._ _ _ SIFT. to —Our city is a continual thoroughfare of French trinps coming from the grand army and returning to France. The grenadiers of the Imperial Guard paired a fcw d ys fince ; and to day we ex ped the Chaffeurs. The fine appearance of thefe troops is a theme of univerfai adm;ration. Great numbers of vinvaletcents have likewife arrived ; the number of thole who have already paired is reported to eseeed 8000. They are to be immediately embarked and fent to Mayence. A deputation from the city of Berlin, yefterday, peed through this place on its way to P.trit, for the purpofe of foliciting an abatement of the contribu tion imputed on it. Letters from Hamburgh Rate, that upwards of 30,000 men, French, Spaniards, and Dutch, are alfeadded in die environs of that city- LUBECK, SEPT. 2. The army afTembled on the frontiers of irlolflein is daily receiving augmentations. At Hamburgh alone there are 13,000 Spaniards. The whole of the corps of the Prince of Ponte Corvo is expelled. HAMBURGH. SEPT. 18. All the mails which were due from Copenhagen have artived together this day. The following is the esttaft of a Letter from that town, dated the r 2th : " The coarfe of poll to Hamburg's and Norway is this day re fumed.

Some private letters were alfo received yefterday from Holland, by the fame conveyance which brought the Dutch and French Papers; but they contain nothing of novelty or intereft. The article from the Moniteur relative to the boots bardment of Copenhagen and the feizure of the Da nifb fleet, which we yefterday laid before our Readers. is the fubjed cf general converfation. Every Briton is ready to admit that the meafore was It (evert one, and juftifiable only on the ground of the moll urgent neceffity.—fßut thole who have nn charafter to lofe, who have reduced violence and injuilice to a fyftern, who have pillaged till there is alma note thing left to plunder, have no right to compla:n. nn title whatever to cenfure.

If it is the queftion of feizing upon Porto, gal, and expelling the reigning family from their European Dominions, the French language, we will venture to fay, it found copious enopgh for every purpofe, either of maim of menace, or of apology.
