The !Ira Conful, before he quitted Lyons, tent by the Prefea of the Palace to Cardinal Bi whom the Pope had fent to the Congrefs at Lyons, a Inuffbox ornamented with his Rortrait: The ori ginal of the Conaitution of the Italian Republic, as well as the law refpaling the clergy, being in • Italian, the tranflators at Paris were guilty of a nnmber of errors, which, if they do not affeft the fubilance, at lean apply forcibly to the details.— Nostiteur. It is with new furprize that we read the long articles in the Englifh Papers, and the fpeeches of Members of Parliament about the failing of the Brea fleet. It is difficdlt to conceive how, at a moment when we are at peace, how an expedition, which has failed with the fole objeft of refloring ' tranquillity to St. Domingo, fliould excite any alarm about the fafety of Jamaica. We cannot recognize in thefe fpeculations the fentiments of civilized Europeans, but the fears of the Tartars of Thibet. For the honour of the civilization of the prefent age, it is not neceffary furely to make ourfelves more barbarous and more foolilh than we really are. There puerile difcuflions, which only fhew the bad faith of the individuals who provoke them, are' wholly contrary to the orders 'trued at Breft after the fignature of the Prelimi• naries of Peace. The Prefeft requiring inaruaions how to aft, in cafe the fquadron of Admiral Corn wallis fhould be forced by arefs of weather to take refuge in Brea, received for anfwer that he fnould not only fuller them to enter the harbour, but I that he fitould take no extraordinary precautions; ' for no greater injury car. be done to civilized Eu ropeans than to difcover even the appearance of fuppofing that condo& poffible which honour and the rights of nations have rendered without an ex ample—Malik:sr. 13 ILLIVIOSI, TM 2. ireflerday the Legiflative Body refolved, after due deliberation, to fend a deputation of twenty. four of its Members to wait upon the Firft Conful. This deputation was this day introduced at one o'clock, and Citizen Deviltries, who was nominated the organ of the Deputation, delivered the follow. ing fpeech:—" A foreign nation, whole liberty oi iginated from the exploits of a hero, was anxkus that its power fhould be creaed under the aufpices of a Page, and in a city where you went to efface the remembrance of former mileries, the willies of the Italian Republic have been fulfilled. Glory be afcribcd to him who owes his conquelts not left to the love of his virtues than to the terror of his arms; who knows not merely to conquer, but to govern, and whole every thought prepares, and every aft realizes, tome benefit to humanity ! Happy France, to whom the glory of the Magid. trate who prefides over her magnificent deflinies returns. Faithful organ of a people, who entertain fur you fentiments of the warmed affeaion, united with feelings of the molt profound veneration, the Legiflative Body willies to exprefs to you the fin. timents which it partakes. How pleating it is for us, in, the midft of that joy which your return uni ve: tally inspires, to hare to offer you the tribute of our fincere congratulations." The anfwer of the Chief Conful war couched in the following terms :—" It was at once fuitahle to the glory and the intereft of France to fecure for ever the fate of a Republic which originated under its foftering hand. I hope that the Con& tution it has received, and the Magiftrates who are chofen to prefide over it, will promote its happi. nefs and repofe. This happinels and repofe is by no means unconncaed with our own. Our prof. perky can never be feparated from the profperity of the people who furround us. I have reaped from my journey the fweeteft recompenfe for the exertions I have made for the country ; I have there colleaed, above all, a free and unreftrained expreffion of the public opinion, in the communi cation of the fentiments of individuals, in the fun. ple language of the merchant, the manufaaurer, the cultivator of the foil. All require that the Go vernment fhould be faithful to the principles which it has difclofed, and it is on there alone that their hopes of happinefs are founded. I was already filled with gratitude for the marks of refpe& and attachment with which the nation had honoured my former efforts. I return penetrated with fentiments of gratitude Rill more deeply imprinted upon my heart. The devotion of my whole life to the inte. reds of France would not be diffident to mom pence for the emotions which I have felt. I ex perience a pleating fatisfaaion in teeing you allo cate your willies to thole of the nation. " A Deputation of the Tribunate, at the head of which was Citizen Del Terre the Prefident, was this day introduced to the Chief Conful. Citizen Delpierre (poke as follows : "Citizen Conful—The Members of the Tribunate name to exprefs to you by the mouth of their Pre dent, the tatisfation which they feel upon your • ••••••• 4 , " .114 the re,. nr the et4.0.....1 0.211 teltimonies of confidence, gratitude, and affellion you have experienced during your journey, and while you remained at Lyons. The univerfal ac t clarnations of a free and enlightened people are the fweetell recompenfe the Chief Magillrate of a State can receive for his labours, his folicitudes, and his fuccefs. Among the praifes which you heard, a great number, no doubt, were addrelfed to the viaorious warrior, but be Allred they were chiefly extorted by the Pacificator, who has re•fettled the political world upon its foundations, has flopped the effufion of human blood, has clofed the revo lution, and has revived in France, alma' at the fame inflant, every fpecies of induilry, and all the caufes of profperity. It is not wonderful that the author of fuch great benefits, and the objed fo many hopes, Ihould be invoked by an infant people as the moderator who will abridge the period, and foften the inconveniencies of childhood. The at tention you are about to bellow upon this new State is a temporary loan which it makes from the genius of the French Republic, who, after having created it by his arms, could not deprive it in its cradle of the affiflance of his judgment and his affeetions." The Cater Comm. replied, That the organi zation of the Italian Republic was a facred duty impofed upon the French people; that he law with pleafure the principal menihers of the tribunate cordially unite with the grand authoriti.a t. 11., Republic ; that thefe fentiments were necellary to the happinefs of the people—the only objet worthy of attention, and in obtaining which true glory could be acquired. He added, that the Council of State, and the learned digefters who had pre rented the projeft of the Civil Code, would continue their labours to bring it to perfeCtion, and that he hoped thefe laws, before the end of the year, would be laid before the Legiflative Body, in whofe mo deration he placed great confidence. Citisen MAGALLAN, Governor General of the Ifles of France and Reunion, has publifhed a Pro clamation, dated Oftober 5, t Sot, exhorting thofe under his command to obedience to the Conftituted Authorities in the Colony, and to fentiments of filial refpeCt for the mother country. He an nounces that his authority had been confirmed by the French Government, and promifes to exert himfelf to the utmoft to Phew himfelf worthy of the truft committed to him. On the 9th infant, (January 29), about five in the evening, the Chevalier d'Azsits, the Spanith Plenipotentiary, arrived at Amiens. The public joy at this event was manifelled by difcharges of arttillery, and the eagernefs with which the Citi zens flocked to greet the Ambalfador's entry.— He lodges at the Hotel de Clermont, one of the handfomea houfes in the town. General 8AR1... GVAY d'HiLstass, who had arrived the evening b.fore, in the morning reviewed all the troops in the garrifon. 14 PLUVIOSE, FED. 3, A letter from Amiens, of 9 Pluviofe (Jan. 29,) received at Havre, hates the following intelligence relative to the Definitive Treaty: We learn at this moment, on good authority, and we haften to idorm you, that the Articles of the Definitive Treaty are fettled betwixt the Plenipotentiaries,and that they will be figned and publi(bed within fif teen days." The .7curtial de: Dfenfears contains the following obfervations:—.l Different opinions are already formed of the refult of the deliberations of the Confulta at Lyons, and the reafon of this is ob vious. Of men who pretend to judge, tome are difpofed to judge ill, while a great proportion are incapable of forming a correa judgment at all.— Some pretend to deplorc the flax of the Italian Re public under its new deftiny. Individuals, friendly to the Republic and the Government, dread in this refult, a fubjed of diffarisfaaion on the part of Foreign Powers, and a chance of war which did not formerly exift. The perfevering friends of the throne and the inflitutions of monarchy find in this tranfaaion a fource of hope. They fee in the Ci falpine the indemnification which the CH av Cott svi is to receive for the reftoration of the Bour bons. In reafoning on the uneafinefi which the firft defcription of perfons alluded to affeft to en tertain, there teems fomething ridiculous in being more concerned about the fate of the Cifalpines than the Cifalpines themfelves. What was their Republic before this organization ? A State with out confideration, and without honour, where every thing was effected by foreign influence, and which, if left to itfelf, could not have exifted for any time without falling into diforganization and weaknefs. What is now the condition of the Ci falpine? A Conftitution is given to it founded on the great principles pointed out by the French Re volution; a true fyllem of national reprefentation,' a mode of eleetion which fecures the general inte reft by the wifeft forms. Whatever there exifts in the country, of men of talent, of energy, of at tachment to liberty, has been called upon to fill the places created by the Conftitution ; and every I , thing is organifed in fuch a manner as to exclude I foreign influence, except where it may be exercifed with advantage. In a word, this country now exifts for itfelf and by itfelf, and it exifts thus only in confequence of its new organization : in com paring its prcfent Hate with its anterior form, let it be (hewn what it has loft, and what caufe there is for complaint. The anxiety of chore who fear that the new order of things in the Cifalpine, will increafe the chances of a new war, is not better founded than the alarms of thole who deplore the fate of theCitalpines. Were foreign powers igno rant of the fpecies and degree of influence, which the French Government poffeffei ? It is impoffible to maintain inch a propofition ; is not this influ ence neceffarily confined by the arrangement with in limits which were not formerly defined ? Will Foreign Powers then find a caufe, will they difco ver a ground of offence in teeing the French Go vernment curtail its external dominions and in fluence ? of all chimerical pretexts for uneafinefs, this is furely therefore the molt abfurd and extra vagant. As to the partitans of monarchy and the Bourbons, it is indeed impoffible to give any an fwer. What I (hall we give an anaver to thofe who intprron in their favour even the reafons of CONSTANTINOPLI, Dac. Zo.—The CAPITAN PA. CH• has been appointed by the GRAND &SIGNIOR Commander in Chief of the Army defined to aft again( Passwaw Octou, and to put an end to the troubles which have taken place at Belgrade. The Negotiations which had been begun be tween the HosPODAR of WALLACHIA and the Rebel Pacha are broken off. A numerous fleet of fmall boats are equipped on the Danube, for the pur. pofe of attacking Widdin. The GRAND Vizia will remain Tome time at Cairo for the purpofe of organizing the affairs of Egypt upon a new footing. The greateft part of the Army will alfo remain there until tranquility is entirely re-eftablifhed. BERLIN, JAN. I6.—The Cotton Machines which have been brought to Ruch great perfetlion in Eng land, and which have been introduced into France with fo much advantage to her manufa.ures, be gin alfo to make tome progrefs in this Country. The Houfe of BERN moons and Conan have form ed, with the aid of an Englifh Mechanic, and of that excellent Pruffian Mechanic ZACHARIAS, a ma• chine of more than one thoufand fpindles, which is worked with extreme cafe, and of every part of which the workmen are made to preferve exalt mo dels, in order to facilitate the multiplication of thefe machines. Three hundred thoufand crowns arc opioupliattil to dic purpolts of dila clUblifir ment, which is under the fpecial proteition of the Kiwo. The perfetiion of the machine induces us to hope that we fhall be able to enter into a com petition with England. THE HAG 111, JAN. 22.—Accounts from Batavia fate, that the mortality there has been by no means fo great thefe three laR years as formerly. The Governor General, and other Officers of dif tinaion, have (pared no pains to have the morales around the City and Fort of Batavia drained ; and thus change the retreat of innumerable infets and ferpents into fertile meadows. By cutting down the woods, the air is gradually rendered more pure, and freed from thole Itagnant vapours fo fatal to Europeans. The garrifon, for the pre fervation of its health, is Rationed on the heights which furround the City, except fmall detachments on duty. It is certain, that a good Government and a free Trade may render this Colony more ufe ful to our Republic, than when it was in the hands of an Exclufive Company, who only thought of their own interefts. RATISBON. JAN. 19.—One of thole things which will immediately be brought before the Diaature, is the falary of the Imperial Chamber of Wetzlaar. For feveral years, the Members of that Supreme Tribunal of the Empire have-not received the greater part of their falaries, a number of the States and Princes of the Empire not having paid the con tributions laid on them by the fundamental laws of the Empire, and which is known by the name of Kammerbieler. The finances of that Supreme Tribunal are fo dilapidated that the vacancies have not been filled up for fome years. The Chamber has in vain fa cited the Diet for aid. It is about to make a new application to the Diet and the EMPEROR, which it is fuppofed will at length be fuccefsful. VIENNA, JAN. 17..-1 E appears, after the moil accurate inveftigations, that the Pacba of Bel grade had occafioned his own death by attempting to form a party to oppofe to the Janiffaries, and by endeavouring to Phut them up in the citadel on a particular fellival day, when they were ufually allowed, by their cuftoms, to go out. He placed an inconfidcrate reliance on the alfiftance of his fon, who was to have come with 3000 men to his fuccour. But that fuccour never arrived ; the projea of the Pacha was difcovered, and his houfc invcfted by the Aga of the Janiflaries. MUNICH, JAN. 20.—The difcontent manifefted on iffuing the Eleaoral Ordinance, fubjeaing the Church Lands to contributions, is appealed, and the meafure quietly carried into execution. BOA SG LIN, Archbifhop of Aix, and Nos, Bi- Atop of Lefcar, arrived Jan. 28, at Brack. They came from England, and return to France by per miffion of the Government. Prince HENRY of PRUSSIA is dangeronfly ill. FRANCRFORT, JAN. 24.—There have been new diflurbances at Weiffemburg, in Franconia. The Pruffian Government of that circle having inflitut ed a new port-duty there, the Citizens wifhed the Magiftrates to remove the cuflom-honfe by force ; but the latter, fearful of the confequenees, would not confent. This produced a quarrel between the Citizens and the Magiflrates, which proceeded fo far that M. ROTH, one of the Magiftrates, was mal treated, and forced to take refuge in Nuremberg. It is faid that the Eleetor of BAvaitia, and the Landgrave Of HESSE CASSEL, have procured from the French Government a favourable decifion with regard to the efiates of the Emigrants on the banks of the Rhine. It is thought that the fulkials of the Princes there will find more difficulty in the ar rangement of their claims. The brokers, BRUCKER, of our city, have flopped payment: other bank ruptcies are expected. There is a great fcarcity of money, which is attributed to the uncertain &tn. tion of feveral of the States. SCHAFFHAUSEN, JAN.21....-TOY thCfC ten months there have been no French troops in our Canton ; but this week Citizen VAILLANT arrived here with orders from General MONTRICHARD, announcing the fpeedy arrival of troops, to occupy this canton and city. This event, at a moment when the com. plete evacuation of Helvetia by the French troops was talked of, has excited Tome fenfation. It teems to be thought to canton French troops through all Helvetia, to maintain the public tran quillity, while the fate of that country approaches its denouement. Some people alfure us, that this meafure has been concerted between the French Military Authorities and our Government, in con fequence of a plan to arm the inhabitants of the (mailer cantons, which did not meet the approba tion of the French General, and in place of"which he engages to have his troops in readinefs to fup. prefs any commotions which may be excited by the eltablifhment of the new order of things. SCHAUENBURG againa the fmalt Cantons had taken refuge in Germany, arrived in this City. After having viked the National Prefeel, and palled the night at the Convent of Fahr, he returned to Ein ticdlen. LONDON. MONDAY, FEBRUARY & PRICE OF STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK 3 per C.

We have now the fatisfation of being able to announce front un doubted authority, that the Terms of the Definitive Treaty between this Country and France are at length finally agreed upon and concluded. Indeed it is more than a week fence this was the cafe, but the Official Pub lication of the Terms has been delayed from a with on the part of our Govern ment to improve the Provifions in tended for the STADTHOLDER, and alto to arrange Tome points refpeaing Switzerland, before the Ratification be formally declared. The Public, however, may rely on what we Rate, that every Article re fpeaing this Country is completely and finally fettled. The chief difficulty ,in the Negoci. ation arofe from its being firongly urged by this Government, that De marara and Surinam Mould be de clared Free Ports for Three Years, to enable the Britifh Subjeas who had fettled there, the more eafily to dif pofe of their Property, and to remit it dire& to this Country. Yefterday we received Paris ,journals to the 3d inß.incluf►ve. Their contents are given in the preceding Colums. The CHIFF CONSUL returned to Paris on the 31ft ult. His arrival was announced by a dif charge of Artillery, and on the following day he received the congratulatory addreffes of the diffe rent Public Bodies.—All is adulation without alloy s The Tiers Confo h aye rather declined a little. They are 56 f. 6o cents. A letter from Amiens, in the Journal As Com merce, [fates, that the Definitive Treaty is fettled. We have no doubt of the fa& ourfelves. A Morning Paper of this day flees on private authotity, that the Spanith Minitter has figned the Preliminary Treaty on the part of his Court. Whe ther this he yet the cafe, we know not, but the two principal Powers having come to a proper un. derflanding, the confint of Spain may be confider ed as a thing of courfe. One Dutch and two Hamburgh mails have ar rived. It is with great pleafure we Rate from unquef tionable authority, that the Danifh Court's ad of acceffion to the Convention figned at St. Peterf. burgh on the 17th of June laR between England and Ruflia, was difpatched for Mofcow on the 25th of Odober ; and that his DANISH MAJESTY'S Ra tification was forwarded from Copenhagen to St. Peteriburgh on the a4th of December. The following are the principal articles by the mails : Our Readers will fee that they perfealy accord with what we formerly laid before them, refpect. ing the insuakd treaty concluded at Paris in Oda ber laft. HANDURCH, JAN. 3o.—Accounts from Con liantinople, by the way of Italy, which may be depended upon, contain the intelligence, that the Porte has juilified itfelf in refuting to ratify the Preliminaries figned at Paris on the 9th of Oc tober, by aliening that ESSEID AL!
