FRANCE. PARIS, MARCH 30. It is underftood at Vienna, that the Duke •of PARMA, the new Grand Duke of Tufcany, will take the title of King of Etruria. A new army is forming in Holland under the command of General Also ERE•I.I. It Will mum of French and Dutch troops. The fubordinatc commands are entrufted to Generals DESJARDINS, VICTOR, DUMONCEAU, and BRUCE. General BERNADOTTE and Vice-Admiral BRUIT are daily expeted at Rochfott. The latter is laid to be invefted with the title of Provifional General Commandant of the Sea and Land Forces. Mama' ;I.—The Syndic of Hamburgh is now at Paris. He comes to terminate, if poflible, an affair which for. fo long a time has fufpended the relations that exi ft ed between the two Govern ments—Yournal du Soir. The report that was circulated of the King of Prufla having ordered feveral regiments to march againft Hanover is contradidted by the Journal of Hanau of the loth March.—journa/ des Debat:. Letters from Auflria announce, as an extraor dinary thing, particulariy at the moment of peace, that the fortifications of Trielle are repairing and fortifying with cannon. A corps of 1 2,000 men, fevers} divifions of which are already arrived, is expeEted in the environs of that city. The Hun garian infurreaion will remain in the fame (late, and will occupy the fame politions it does now, until frefh orders. _ _ . ..... bLtaca 3i.—The (malt-pox is making the moll dreadful ravages at Zurich, and along the Lake of Con Rance. ...... On the morning of the lath intl. the mallets of two veffels, which arrived at Genoa in eight days from Meflina, Hated, upon oath, that five days before their departure, the King of Naples bad iffued orders, that all Enlifh veffels, not even ex cepting 'hips of war, fhould quit the ports of Naples and Sicily; that thefe veffels had, in confequence, altually put to lea, and that the arrival of a body of Ruffian and French troops was generally ex peCted in Sicily. Thefe particulars are confirmed by the affidavit of the wafter of a Turkifh veffel which arrived on the rzth at the Lazaretto of Va riguano, in the fame fpace of time from Meffina. Some inconfiderate perions have already an nounced, that the arts will loon regain their an cient fplendour, mannfaCtures their activity, com merce its influence, and all France that attitude of fecurity, induftry, and abundance, that has dill tinguiffied its brighten periods. Without doubt, a continental peace is a great Ilep towards the amelioration of every fource of the public good. Without doubt, its benefits are nearly incalculable. The celfation of human carnage alone, demands our warmeft gratitude to the SUPIISPAS BUNG. But how can we flatter ourfelves with the realiza tion of all thefe golden dreams, while England is not included in the general pacification. Do thole chimerical calculators conceive the advantages re fulting from the enjoyment of the liberties of the Seas, and particularly the free palrage into the Mediterranean ? Can we difpenfe with thefe pri vileges? It is, however, reafonable that we fhould conhde in the wifdom and genius of a Govern ment, which, in the courfe of fifteen months, has efftecd the molt attonifhing change in the face of affairs. But we fhould be more than ordinarily fufpicious of the enthuffilfm of good citizens, and the hypocrify of bad ones, relative to the conic quinces of the Treaty of Luneville. Let us ra ther confers that France will never be able to ar rive at the zenith of her profperity, till the Britifh trident is either lowered by a Peace or broken by War, and a period arrive to its fatal influence upon the van empire of the Ocean.—C/ fdu Cabinet. FROM THE PARIS PAPERS. . LISSOM, FES. ST. NICHOLAS, of 7 guns, forming part of the fleet of Vice-Admiral CALD' R, in attempting to enter this port in had weather, grounded on the bar; it was %vial great difficulty the was fared. She had her main-malt fhivered 15 feet Above the deck, her two other males very much damaged, and her yards broken. An Engli(h frigate, which followed her, fletred the fame fate—She was entirely difroafted, and makes much water.—Monii cur. LEGHORN, MARCH i3.—The Government of I Tufcany have deputed a Noble of Pifa to go and compliment the new Grand Duke. Some palm - as pretend that that Prince will take the tide of King of Eturria. From Ancona we learn that fix thou fand men are expended there, who are to embark for a maritime expedition. All the veffels, even foreign ones, have beentnt in requifition along the coaft. The expedition will be proteifted by a fquadron which is to arrive Shortly. AMSTERDAM, MARCH 11.—The day before yefterday an Engliffi fleet of 'l2 (hips of the line and 6 frigates was defcried from the height of the Helder. It appeared to fteer its courfi for the North fea. We learn by letters from Stockholm and Copenhagen, that the fleets which have been equip ped there hive left thole ports, in order to repair to the Straight of the Baltic. Each of thcfe fleets confilts of 15 Ihips of the line, and a proportion ate number of frigates. It appears that they will have palled the Straight before the arrival of the Englifh fleet in thole parts. According to the fame accounts ag: and fleet was alto to fail from the pouts of Rutria, to join the Danifh and Swediin fleets at the fame point. MARCH 22.—The news of the capture of Bata via and of all the Dutch poifeffions in the ilk of Java, has not reached the Dutch trade direftly; We have very thong rearms even for believing the nzws not to he true. In the coin* of hill month feveral commercial bootie gar our city re ceived letters from Batavia, dated' the beginning of Stpunit.er. At that ponied the colony eras tranquiL Nice, MARCO/ 19.—A veffel is juft arrived here from Cork.. ; the prrformed the voyage in 26 hours.-I'be friend. of PAI/LI and of the Britiffi, whn hald a correfrndence with Corfienn refugees in Sardinia, continue to excite the inhabitants of the Iflaud to infurreftion. GERMANY MANHETM, MARCH 20. Orders have been received here, to prepare the barracks for the reception of Palatine troopsorhich, in fome meafure, refutes the rcport that bad been in circulation, that this city would become the pro. petty of fome other Prince. On the t gth intl. the Imperial courier, Moe TL, palled through NAM'', on his return from Paris, with difpatches for Na tifbon and Vienna, relative, as it is faid, to the indemnifications of the German Princes, agreed on at Luncville. The Grifon country is to be united with Helvetia. AUGSBURG, MARCH zo. Yefterday five waggons more, laden with money and drawn with fie horfes each, fet out from this place for Strafburgh. Many places, particularly the fmaller Rates of Suabia, from a want of ready money, were forced to pay their contribution to the French General, in gold and flyer valec, fur niture, medals, and other valuable things. The foldiers belonging to the anny of the Rhine, are carrying great quantities of ready money home with them to their own country. No perfons have had more employment fence the invafinn of the French, than language-masers. Several French Generals and Officers have learned German very eagerly, and made a great progrefs in it. FRANCKFORT, MARCH 2t. Official notice has been received here, that, in confequence of the treaty of peace, the Gallo-Ba tavian army would return from Franconia to the left banks of the Rhine, and that it would dire& its march through this city and its territory.— Though the Government of this city frequently rcmonflrated againft this frefit burthen, yet it could not be prevented, that a great part of that army was directed to march through this city, where they will nay only one, or at moil two nights. To ren der this march as little oppreffive as poffible to the inhabitants, the French Commanders have divided thefe troops into feveral fmall corps, which are to march through during feveral fucceffive days.— General A Noel cau is expeeted fhortly to return to Offeubach, where he has bought a houfe. RATISBON, MARCH U. Refpeeting the manner in which the Empire is to co-operate in the bufinefs of indemnification, the votes are as yet divided. Some of the Eledtors, as Treves and Cologne, are (Lill of opinion that EMPEROR alone ought to be charged with this bit. finds, and that they ought patiently to prepare for whatever might be the refult. Others have pro poled a deputation, which fhould, however, be as (mall as notate. Should this be the cafe, there is already a majority of votes for the EleBors of Mentz and Saxony, to whom others will► to add Auffria and Magdeburg, (Pruffia, in the College of Princes.) It is reported, that, in cafe the ar rangement of the indemnification fhould be offered to the EMPEROR alone, his MAJESTY has deter mined to reje& the charge, even if offered to him by the Empire. From Fulda a deputation has been fent to Vi enna, to treat for the prefervation of that country as an Ecclefiallical State ; but they were referred to Ratilbon, and have now been here for feveral days, to obfcrve the courfe of affairs. HAMBURGH, MARCH 27. The occupation of the Hamburgh territory by the Pruffian troops has not yet taken place, and it is uncertain when that meafure, which has been verbally announced at Berlin by the Miniiler STRUENSEE to the Hamburgh Deputy the Syndic Smola, will be'carried into die& It would, however, feem that the troops will not arrive for fifteen days longer. They are to be drawn from the garrifons of Berlin and Potfdam, and it is Paid they will be commanded by the Duke of SAXE WETMAR. They are to confill of fix thoufand men. The panic fpread by the report of their ap proach was very extraordinary. The country people were employed in fending their va luable effeas into the city, and the proprietors of the villas in the environs difpatched with precipi tation their plate and bell furniture to Hamburgh. The panic has now entirely ceafed, and commer cial tranfaftions are carried on as before. On the 25th, the Duke of Bauwswicx had a conference at Potfdam with the Kula, relative to the taking poreffion of the mouths of the Ems, Wefer, &c. The public mind is very impatient to fee the confequences to which the change of Adminiilra tion at Peteriburgh will lead; the Count de RA S. Tomo, Its having been fucceeded by the Count de l'amt.sw. It is remarked that this change took place after the refignation of Mr. PITT was known at Peteriburgh t but the report that Ituffla would withdraw from the Northern Convention Items al together without foundation. This free city labours again nndcr a new politi. cal critic, the ultimate ski/elopement of which will, it is thought by many, prove fatal to its indepen dence. Some Prutlian troops have aaually begun to occupy one part of its territory, and another body is expcfled to enter one of its principal fub urbs, called Hamm, in a few days. Early on the 23th inflant, a Pruffian officer of dragoons arrived ezprefs from Berlin, with dif patches, in which the King of Pau sits informs their Magnificence% and the Citizens of this place, that, as Protedor of the line of demarcation, be raw himfelf obliged, by different circomnsuices, to occupy feveral diaries of the Hamburgh territory; namely, the island of billwaerder, in the Upper Elbe, about two leaves from this city, and tht (*barb of liamm, as far as one of the city gates.' called Steinthor. The inhabitants are ezhortedlo receive -their new guefts as friends and protedors, and to afford them every comfort and accommo dation in their power. The Kinn concludes with assuring the venerable Senate, that this occupation is by no mean.. meant as an encroachment upon the rights and independence of this place: NETHERLANDS. BRUSSELS, MARCH 2/. The peate is to be celebrated here by a gran , ' fellival. Several young girls will be given in mai. riage to thofe warriors, who bear about them the marks of honour in the wounds which they meek.. ed : beer is to flow this day from the fountains in. 'lead of water. The young people will enjoy new Carnival. It is laid that the Ruffian troops, who were preparing to return to their own coun try, have been ordered on another deflination. The army defined for the neighbourhood of DIA, is every day increafed by nnmhers of troops from Italy, Switzerland, and the Rhine. The Connni: l lion appointed by the EMPFROR, to repair to Bel gium for the purpofe of replating the payment of the debts due by Aufkria, is expeeed here in the beginning of next month. The Commiftionerswiff he liirniihed with letters of credit upon the princi. pal bankers of Franckfort and Amlterdam. LONDON. SATURDAY, APRIL 4.

PARKER. She lift the fleet on Sunday ha, near the entrance of the Sound; and at that time it was underitood that they were to attempt to force the !mirage of the Sound the next day (Monday), if the wind thould be favourable. Mr. VANSIT TART and Mr. Daummotto came over in the lint, with difpatchcs for Govern ment, and arrived in town this mottling. A Council of the Cabinet Miniffers was yea. d.ty held at Lord HAWKESattav's Office: the Duke Of PORTLAND, the LORD CHANCELLOR, Lord HAW/USES/RV, and the Members of Adminiata tion attended, to deliberate on the communications made to Lord HAWICESIULY by M. OTTO, in con fequence of the return of his Meffenger. It con tinues to be reported, that the CH:sr CONSUL is difpofed to meet the wifhes of our Miniary, and that Lord Sr. HELEN'S is defined to be the ne gotiator. Yefterday being the fait of the Crucifixion, corn monly called Gond Friday, the Right Rev. the Lord Bifhop of ROCHESTER preached before the Nobility, at the Chapel Royal. The Rev. Prelate took his text, and delivered a moll excellent dif courfe from St. Paul's firft Epiftle to the Corin thians, chap. xv. verfe 22. The ROYAL FAMILY did not attend divine ler• vice at the chapel. Very confiderable changes are begun in the German departments united to France. The ju dicial fyftem of France will be extended to thofe territories. The Court of Revifion at Treves is to be fupprelfed, and a fpecial Court of Appeal to be formed for the four departments: The con vents are to be diffolved, and the religious of both fetes to bedifmiffed with an annuity for life. ProfGa has made a convention with the Ex rEROR of Russia, by which he fends into Siberia all the criminals condemned to perpetual impri fonment. Pruflia pays the expences of their jour ney to the frontiers of Ruffle, from which the Ea- PEROr bears their expences to Siberia. The Emperor Pain, as a mark of his fenfe and approval of the recent condo& of Pruflia, has fent to Berlin, as a prefent to the Queen, a fuperb mantle of fur, with a chain of diamonds of the value of too 000 rubles. The chain forms a fuite of eagle s , confining of the Ruffian and the Pruffian eagle, fet alternately. The Princefs, his daugh ter, has, on her part, fent to the Queen of Pruflia a magnificent Ihawl of Brabant lace. We Rated fome time ago. that a handfome building was about to be crated in Seringapatam for the dwelling of the Britifh Refident at the Court of the Rajah of Myfore. We underhand that it is now in agitation to rebuild the palace, where the young Rajah may hold his durbar in a hate Suitable to his dignity. Other public build ings, we alto learn, are to be erected in Scringa patam, in the room of thole which have been found in a ruinous condition. The late overland difpatch from India poffeffed us of accounts of thole revolutionary principles which fo long convulfed Europe, having extended themfelves to China, and excited at Pekin, and moll of the cities of the empire, the mon alarming fenfation. The Government had revived all the obfolete edias againft the introduftion of new fats and doarines, and have impofed on the Several foreign aftronomers, artifts miflionaries, &c. who have been permitted to redde in the country, the moll rigid reltridlions. At a town on the banks of the Pei-ho river, con fiderable iliflurbances were excited by the Brah mins, in their teal to enforce the orders with which they were entrufted, againft fome converts to the Roma religion, but repreired by the military : the temper of the people, however, indicates form decided political change. The greatly enereafed number of foreign veffels which frequented Calcutta during the lan feafoti, and the confequent erten fion of foreign trade, have excited the jealoufy and attention of our Govern ment, which we underhand to have in contem plation Tome arrangements to prevent the further growth of the evil. Such bas been the alarm excited in India by the apprehended eflablithment of the French in Egypt, that all the principal forts on the Malabar coin I have been doubly garrifoned.
