NAME. L.2.14—....,:a. "AktE, DECEMBER 3e. It may be reeolleaed that the Imperial decree of the al fi of Normal:ter, which places the Britilh Winds in a Rate of Slockadt.,.fliuts the ports of France againll all veal: coming direaly from England or her colonies ; and that theexclife or having been com pelled to put into port cannot be allowed to veffels which,is the courfe of their. Voyage, Mall bare touched at a final port v either is Europe or eifewhere. The fdloiving are tome of the regulations judged necefrary for jeering the execution of this part of the decree : 44 The two 'articles of the decree relating to this ob)ea (ball be notified to all Captain; of 'acts, On their arrival, by the Commandants of his Majeftj's flips Rationed at the entrance of the Imperial•ports. The Captains are to declare from what port they we* fatid out, from whence they come, and the pcirts they have touched at. Thiy are to give a general defeription of their cargo, and affirm that they neither came direaly from England nor her colonies. If the declaration Hull fignify that they have touched at England, the veffels (hall be obliged to retire. If it fhould be otherwife, the declaration {hall be feat to the Adtniniftrator of the Marine by the flationary Comrnanaer, who is to keep a copy of it. This Ad miniftrator (halt- take meafures with the principal Officers of the Cuftoms for afcertaining the t:uth of it. If the declaration is found to be correa, the veffel (hall be admitted ; if falfe, both vette) and cargo (hall be feized, conformable' to the Bth Article of the de cree. The Mailer of aforeign veffel, who (hail refute to fign this declaration, (hall be compelled to put to lea again, and all communication with the (bore (hall be ftrialy prohibited, until the veffel ffiall have failed. Moreover, this declaration will not authorize Mer chants or Captaifis of (hips to difikenfe with the ordi nary declarations or other forms preferibed by the Calloms, and particularly thofk of the sift Augnfl r 791, and 4th Germinal in the year a." r) ITALr. iv NAPI2B, DEC. f. The Engin have lately landed near &ilia, in the (trait of Meffina ; they put on (bore between two and three thoufand men, inclutiee of cavalry. General Regnier advanced from his head quarters et 'Palmi, and attacked the enemy with his ufual impetuofiti, defeated, and forced the remainder of them to re-em bark. Another landing was elicited near Sapri, but with as little fuccefs . M. Guys , at the bead of-a moveable column, being feconded by the inhabitant!, cut in.pieces the corps ofthe Englillt near Camaratta. DICESZIL to.-.-Since the failure of the two laft attempts made by the Englith, they Teem to have given up their objects in this kingdom. Even in Calabria their landing was beard of without pro ducing airy emotion. According to the latell ac counts from Martha' Maine, his head quarter, were. Bill at Monteleone. - .We have now very fee:eaten; pies of the robberies and murders that ufed to dif grace the country. The laQ affair of this kind hap pened between Fondi and Itri, where the. young ~-Trench Colonel Bruyeres was murdered. The per petrators have been taken and fentenced to death. Our National Guards are to be put upon .a better footing, for the fafety of the interior. They are to confilt of all perfons capable of bearing arms. From Sfctly we learn, that a difference between the ci de• want Court and the Engin teems to prevail: Aeon is removed fropsitte•Mmillry, and Margo l is Cireello appointed in his'place. The EnglitE (hipping about Sicily are alfo much decreafed In number. In the road of Palermo there are only one (hip of the line, a cutter, and a brig, betides another (hip of the line in the port. The Court and the inhabitants are even lefs cordial, and between the Court and its de pendents the difference is greater (till. Our Government at Naples gains more and more upon the affeeions of the people. This is promoted by the many excellent intlitutiuns eftablithed among us. • SPAIN. tARCELONA, DEC. 14. Authentic intelligenie which we have received from Sicily, atteßs the trouble and agitation which prevail in that unhappy country, fince Qleen Caro. , line has made it at once her afylum and the laff thea tre of her dominion. It is difficult to form a kill idea of the fyltem of vexation which direas the Court of Palermo ; but the following fans will at leaft ferve to snake known to Europe, to what a pitch the abufes of power are daily carried there. A Royal Edia fe. que flrates the property of all the Sicilians now in France and Italy. The Judge appointed to carry this law into execution .is a Mr. Speciali, who was five years fince at Naples, the Minifier of all the vengeance, of the teen and of General Aaon, and who canted' to be hung at that time Princes Colonna Stigliano, Admiral Caraccioli, the famous Phyfician Cirillo, and near three thoufand perfons dittinguiffied by their birth, fervices, or talents. We may form force opi- Ilion of the difpofition which fuch a man brings to the execution of a rigorous ordinance: but what islets eafy to divine, is the fubtilty of the commentaries he adds to it, and the grounds on which hit; judgment is formed. For example, he has feized the property which the Duke of Ferrandina, a Spaniard, the eldett • Con of the Duke of Alba, poireffes in Sicily, the annual income of which amounts to about 90,0c0 crowns. This Nobleman refidesin Spain, and confecpiently is not comprized in the cafe determined by the law.- - But the Judge Speciali difeorered that one of the an• • cetlors of the Duke received, a hundred and fifty years fince, the title of Citizen of Naples, and enter taining no doubt that this title, and the fervices.which then deferved it, were hereditary in the houfe, he confiders the Duke of Ferrandina as a Citizen of Na , plea, and confifcates his poffefilons in Sicily. The i, c r o r t i l n fi c f e c f a s te o d f a M s k on io t n e g fe i, r g gl t i o a l lo be , Sicilian,a e,g3and.T f Court of Palermo, and her confurt remained at Na ples ; the dowry of the wife has been consequently 1 he ol P lo r w in ed cefs ih o e f i Ruffano, who married the daughter of the Prince of Muter, a Sicilian Nobleman, is at Palermo, and her hufband at Naples ; here the dowry has been confif cated, at belonging to the wife.

An. ty+ t-aa Conf. for acc. 6tif In the &rut of Friday we Rated that. the Ameri can fhip Diana, which had arrived at Falmouth from Roehefort, had brought accounts that the French had gained fome advantages over the Ruffians in Po. land. We hoped the intelligence would prove tut• founded, but we are forty .to Rate, that it was in Come degree confirmed by Hamburgh Papers re ceived on Saturday afternoon, containing the 40, 4scl, and 43d Bulletins of the French Army. Thefe we have this day laid before our Readers, with fome other extrads. • We need hardly add, that notwithfianding the complexion of the French accounts, too much impor tance ought not to be attached to them ; for it is known to be at prefent the fyftem of the Rufllans,even when they attack, to do it only with the view of har raffing the enemy, and with an intention to retreat when they have done fo, without urging their move ments in fuch a manner as to hazard a general en gagement. _ _ In fire, it appears, that though the enemy in fe veral divilions have croffed the Viltuli, no affair of moment has yet taken place. Indeed the enemy Item to will: to a& only upon the defenfive—no very fa vourable fymptom of the prefent hate of their army, however much they may boaft. They are pretty clofely concentrated, and are throwing up works for the protection of the bridges which they have eftab lifhed over the Viflula. - • The following Items to have been the potation or the enemy about the middle of lift month :—Tbe left, onder Marfhal NET, was at Rypin : the ad vancect, guard of the centre, under AUGEREALI, was at Plonik ; and the right; under Davovsy,had eflabliffted itfelf at Sieroc, at the confluence of the Narew .and the Bug. This is certainly a pofition well calculated for keepinka . fuperior force at bay ; but• there deferi fi ye tneafuies aie neither fuited to the' ... genius of, the French nation, nor to that exalted opi. niou wbisib bas been entertained of BONAPARTE'S .military ebavailer. What expe&ation can he have of raifing the Poles ea ILO, when they fee him thus (Int hinsfelf tip, as it were, . in an entrenched camp, there toiwait, the attack of the enemy ?

The report of fevere dictate prevalentin the French army is univerfal, but is contradicted by the French, 1' Yet the accounts they give are incon fi llent. Inoue place . it is Paid that the weather has been very favourable ; while it is Wei is 'a letter from Warfaw a the a IN :that notwithilisaing the ge continua rainy weather;" the Eloper* was in good health. If the weather had been eontinnallyrain,,it could not bt very favourable, and indeed it is pretifely the weather tnoft calculated to delirox the French Army. it is undcrltood too, that through bad food and other circumilances, inde pendent of the weather, the French army h very un healthr, and it would be aftonifbing if at fuch a time of the - year, without tents, proper cloathing or other oeteffaries, they fitould efcape the fcourge of difcafe. The Poles certainly have nyt (hewn that zeal in the caofe of the French which Navoi.sott expellee. He told them fame weeks ago, io one of iris proclama tions, that he.

The American brig Ariel arrived off Dover on Saturday, which left Flufhing the day before, the embargo having been taken off in the Dutch ports. The Captain reports, that when he left that place it was rumcoared that accounts had been received of an as ion having been fought between the Roffiant and French, in which the latter had been defeated, with a great lois of men. The French Army, it is Paid, has been reinforced by a large body of Police and Cuftom•houfe Officers, to help to fill up its ranks— The accounts fay 40,000, of one defcription and another—in much is klasoLsom in 'want of men. We A►rnrld'addi however, that the people belong , ing west Ariel !late, that great pains . are taken by the Frenth'io prevent . reports from being circulated in Ho mach fa, that difallrous intelligence is circulated only in whifpers, and no one dares to endavour to akertain its truth or falfebood. We, therefore,• do not attach.much importance to.this eport. In a Private Letter received at Hull from Dantzic, ', dated Dec. to, the writer Rates, that with the ex ception of Gen. BLUCHER, the greater part of the Pruffian Officers have been deemed cowards or trai tors. He further adds, that Colbert and Graudentz are defended by determined Generals. Dantzic was very bong, and the commander, Gen.Hamberger, a very brave man. All the Engligh were leaving Dam zicl; in confequence of a proclamation juft iflued. —General KALIERROTH had reGgned, and was fuc• ceeded by General L'Errocz. The Pruffians had 20,000 regular troops, independent of the large gar rifons in the fortified towns and 80,000 more were organifiag at Koniglberg, and would be ready to take the field in a week or two. An order had been ;trued, declaring that the privilege of promotion, either in the infantry or cavalry, hitherto confined to the No• bles, fhould be granted to every citizen, and a great many Lad entered the army in confequence. BUENOS AYRES. The Lifbrns-Mail of Saturday brought no farther accounts rifpetling the re-capture of Buenos Ayres, and as there is reafon to believe that the reinforce ments from the Cape had arrived before the reported recapture,-the place could after that be in no danger. A report in the Cadiz paper of a French fquadron, under Admiral Rosiu.y, having arrived at Cumana, a toga and proiliee of_ Terra Firma, in Spanifh America s is entiiied to nb etedit.
