The Prefea of Calvados gives a very unfavoura ble account of his department : the public mind there is corrupted more and more every day.

JUNE 29. The hopesof the Ecclefiallical Party haveentire . ly vanifhed. It begins to confider the fecularifa . tions as inevitable. Important changes are alfo exr h edin the conflitution of the empire : they will be eceffary refult of the aggrandifement of the powerful houfes, and of the diminution of the number of the petty Princes. Some pretend to fay, that in the new plan the Roman months will be fupprefed ; and that each petty (late will be bound to furnifh, in cafe of war, its contingent to the army of the more potent neighbouring prince ; that is to fay, Aullria, Brandenburg, Bavaria, Saxony, Hen' . ,e Wirtemberg, and Hanover. Se veral other c hange` are fpoken of, the objeß of which is to dirninifh the wheel-work of the political machine, and to augment the firength of our Re public of Princes. The bafis of this new conflitu tion is to be an armed neutrality, pacific in its efence, but fnfficiently llrong to prevent the'am bition of neighbouring powers from diflurbing the iepole of Europe. It is with this view, it is raid, that Hanover will be feparated from the Crown of England, either in favour of the Kiva of PROSES A, of of a puiffie Prince cf the Houle of Brualwick. 1 HAMMON, JUNE 26. • This day one of the firfl commercial honfes in • this city received Tome very important difpatches from Peterffitorgh ; but the firieleti fecrecy is ob ferved rrfpeaing their contents, which were imme diately forwarded to England by a fpecial me ffe nger. Private letters from Vienna, of the 17th inR. mention, that Count Cos r TS, L. has again fulicit ed the En rssoe for his recap from Paris. It is alto well known. that though invited, he has not a (riled at any of the fetes given by the French Mi nifier tp the KING of ETIVII4I. The Imperial Court haspofitiyely refufed to con fent to the Kim of SARDINIA'S being indemnified ▪ by the poffeffion of the Pork's territories. The new plan pf indemnities propofed by Fiance meets with a thoufand difficulties at Vienna.

SON, in driving the French out of Egypt. No official cornmunication'has yet been receiv ed from Admiral BLANK sr ; but, before the laft letters received by Government from Egypt came away, a letter had been received from him by Lieut. Col.'Hotioway, one of the gritifh Of ficers attached to the army of the Grand Vizier, The letter alluded to, announced his arrival at Suez, but we are lorry' to add, doss, and not in a Condition to effeet any of the obleas of the voyage, His letter is dated from Suez, the 3oth of March, knd the following is the fubfance of it : " That after a dangerous and difficult naviga -44 tion he had juft arrived at Suez with only hisown • !hip the Lios, the other two veffels in compa • ny with him, la FOITI frigate, and a tranfport " with forts and provifions, having been both " loft on land banks in the Red Sea ; that hap pily no lives were loft, but not an article of " the fibres or provifions were Paved ; and that in 66 coufequence he could remain but a very !hurt " time at Sues, owidg to want of provilions. He " adds farther, that the number of troops he had a on board only amounted to 260 Europeans and Sepoys, but that powerful reinforcements were " to have failed from Bombay frortly after him." For the correftnefs of the above'particulars we pledge our credit with the public, and our readers may depend on the fatl, that the ftatement con tains every thing received by Government from Egypt up to the prefent date, refpeeting fucconrs fent from India. From what the Admiral lays, however, refpcsting the force defined to follow him from Bombay, we may iedulge in the hope, that we (hall loon hear of its reaching the defined port. GOD grant it may meet with no difafter fibrilar to that experienced by the Admiral, and which, from his own fatement, we have reafon to ' beli eve has canted him to return without waiting I its arrival. This day we received Paris Journals to the 4th hilt. inclufive, being 4o days later than thofe received before, but they are fo entirely barren of intelligence that we have only been able to fele& the following fhort extraCts : Pants, JULY 4.—Letters from Triefte, dated June 14th, fate, that the Condeans and Swifs, in the pay of England, embarked on the 9th, on board an Englifh flotilla, for the ifland of Malta : they are formed into one regiment, and amount to 650 men. We learn by letters from Arnfierdam, dated ' July s 9, that pofitive orders have been fent to the ports of the Tezel and Helvoetfluys for the Dutch fleet tli hold itfelf in readinefs to fail at a moment's notice: they even (peak of embarking the troops who occupy a (mall camp in the illand of Goree. A large body of French and Batavian troops is now ;ambled in North Holland. Three Neapolitan frigates, which the Court of Naples has placed at the difpofal of the French, have entered the port of Ancona. It is not true that the Duke of Bat/am:cc has quitted the Pruffian fervice. The Statue voted to Prince Camas, will be an equellrian one in bronze of a colotfal fiat.

Letters from Meffina, dated May 27, Rate, that GANTHZAUM fquadron, conlifling of font (hips of the line and two frigates, has entered the Strait of Meffina. The Ruffians who were at Naples have evacu ated fort St. Elmo, which has been occupied by the Kixo's troops: a body of there troops has been fent to Apulia : another corps of French troops Paid to amount to 4000 men has alto entered the kingdom of Naples. The Brigands have increafed fo much, and be come fo audacious in the kingdom of Naples, that they have the boldnefs to befiege towns.—They laid liege to Varto, a (mall town fituated at a lit- - tle diftance from the French line, and would in fallibly have taken it, had it not been for the a f. Nance fent thither by the latter. We are allured that our Government has re .ceived the plan of a Conftitution, or rather the bafis of one, calculated to reconcile the different opinions by which the public are divided. It is added, that the Government will make its obfer• vations on this plan before it is laid before the Con aka, who will then difcufs it, and make the necef fary changes and modifications. It appears that the Government peril& in its intention of caufing the Catholic to be declared the efiablifbed Religion.

Their deflination is flill a myftery, but it is generally believed that they are deftined to take poffeffion of the countries that will be ceded to Pruffia, as an indemnity.
