Dutch papers AM to the zcth were received—from both of which we have given copious extracts. The Rotterdam Mercury of the tzth, contains the follow ing article, on the authority of advices from Paris, which, if true, may be codidered as of great im portance : " On the 2d, the Funds, at Paris, experienced a great depref eon, which vas chiefly atteil4ted t o a report circulated on 'Change that a warm difputc had tak,u place between the Emperor and the Roman Imperial Am:all:Woe, Count COIIINTZ rt., in which the preparative/ far a new war were difcovered• This intelli gence is, bpwever, nut to be depended on." In the fitting of the Legiflitive Body on the 7th, a decree refpeeting the military confcription for the year 14, was prefented by order of the Emperor: it concluded by propormg— " That 30,mxi conferipts thall he railed from the confeription for the year 14,10 complete !hi army upon the footing of its orga nization, and 30,000 to remain in referee, or to be fokly deilined to place the army upon a war eilablifhtnent, mould eircumftancts vender it neeeffary." A letter from &ilia notices the Treaty which has to ling been on the tapir between England and Swe den ; but slates, that his Pruitan Nlajelly has thrown tome ilifficultics in the way of its ccinclufion. It is impoffible at prefent to ascertain what degree of credit is due to the above flatement ; but it may be obferved in the prefene enaaved (late of the Dutch, as well as the French prefs, it is hardly to be fuppoted that the Editor of any journal would venture to mention fetch a circtimllance, ur./efs it relied on force tore foundation. It appears from other accounts, that Count Collet- z as:. has foiicited to be recalled from t'aris, which gives form degree of probability to the report. The Moisikur contains an Official account of the late unfuccefsful attack mad: at St. V alleri, by the boats of his Majelly's (hips Rai -11.11 and FOLICES• -rti4s, on the French privateer Vimereux.

MATIRII3, DEC. 1 9.—The Minitlers of the Marine and War are employed with unexampled tativity.— They mean to carry on ,the war with all the vigour pnflible. According to an order of Government, there will be taken from all the regiments of Spanifh in fantry, a company of grenadiers, in order to form feparate battalions of grenadiers, to be employed in the moll dangerous enterprizes. Inflruaions en this Cubic& have already been fent to the Commandants of all the regiments. Several of thefe battalions wilt be formed in this capital : it is believed that immediately after their organifatinn they will march for the camp of Saint Roch. Different regiments of militia will 4110 be collated to join the army of the line. At the fame time there will be a general recruiting, to com plete, as far as poflible, the national regiments, which for the molt put, are far from having the number requited; even in the time of peace, by the royal or• •linances. It is announced that the Prince of Peace, in his quality of Captain-General of all the Land and Naval Forces, will vitit the principal ports, and review the troops deflined for the Camp of Saint-Roch. All thefe difpofitions ferve to prove what vigour the Go vernment employs in itspreparations for wat. In order to carry it on with energey, feveral Admirals, Vice- Admirals, and Commodores, as well as a great num ber of naval officers of all ranks have been called into aflual fez vice, and have received orders to repair immediately to the different maritime dittrias, where they are to be employed. Admiral GRAVIN A is conflantly employed in the Miniary of the Marine. A report has been circulated here, within thefe few days that Admiral Ns Lsoia, who commands the Enghilt fquadron in the Mediterranean, had made an attack by fea on the fortrefsuf Port Mahon, while a body of land forces ware landed to fecund this ope ration. We have, however, learnt nothing pofitive on this fitbjeft, and the whole is confined to fume let ters from Barcelona, which fpeak of this attack as a report current at that place. CADIZ, Dic. 21.—0 n the 12th, the batteries of Defnergardo, at Ceuta, fired on an Eng Sib brig, and obliged her to enter into that port. licr lading, which confided u h f proviGons, was immediately fold by auaion. On the tsth, an Englifh cutter, mounting twelve guns, carried into Gibraltar a SpaAill► wird from Ame►ica. The Municipal authorities of Cadiz confider the epidemy as attended with no danger ; and the com munications, it is laid, are again to be openedthrough out the whole di arid of that thy. At Algeziras the difeafe (cents to be at an end—it has ceafed alto, it is laid, at Gibraltar. MALAGA, Dic. B.—lt is impoilible to form a _it'll. idea of the afped exhibited by our unfortunate city. Lt refembles a defart. The mortality here has in tome meafore ceafed, it is true, for want of victims. Seven thoufand peifun-. only have efcaped its attack : twenty-fix thoufand have fallen a facrifice to it. The efftas of this great difafter are remarked in every thing that fittiounds us. The grapes have have rotted on the vines for want of hands to gather them. On all fides we hear the cry of Bread ! Bread ! The plague is every where fucceeded by fa mine, and it is in this deplorable (late that the Eng lifh futprife us, and involve us in war. In moll parts where the epidemy has prevailed, the following eifervationshave been made : it was lets fatal to females than to males, and it appears that it had no influence on old women, for they continually aflitled the lick without being attacked by it. Petfons of a delicate constitution were alfo lefs fubjea to its fatal effeas than thofe of a robuft conllitution. in regard to the negroes it feared) , produced any effed on them. HAMUURau, JAN. 4.—The Elbe is now fo Rrongly frozen that the lwavielk load can be difpatched on a fledge (run our city to Harhourg. The Sound has been covered with icc !Ince the 28th of December.

Whatever may be the object of this cordon, with regard to the epidemy, one cannot forbear fttfpeeting that it has alio fome connection with the negotiations carrying on between France and Naples, efpecially as the French troops are marching towards that kingdom.

Under the reign of the Emprefs MARIA 'Nita SSA, the expenditure of the military treafures amounted annually to twenty-one millions of florins; this is now inereafrd by near fi ve millions, fince in confequence of the extraordinary dearnefb of all the need:tries of life, the pay of the foldier has been advanced one kreutzer a day, and that of other military perfons in proportion.
