BERNE, SF rr. 24.—They Ilia talk here of the t.Jops which the French Government is to fend hi - tiler, in confequence of a reqn ifition from the Hel -1 .:•ic Government. The latter had required that :ranee ihould leave at its difpofal :he troops the fervice of that allied Republic. The Nl:rifler ALLF iItAND, in agreeing ro this demand in name f the FIRST CONSUL, replied, that the Fira Magif tr ate taw with pain, that Helvetia was in danger of lollag its Liberty by the effect of paffions. with (added the French Minifer) that you may not, by your debates, expofe yourfelves to the con tempt of Europe, and avoid the misforthnes which it is yet time to prevent. It is a pity," fags he in the fame difpatch, " that you fhould have fuppofed you could difpenfe with the French troops, efpe cially as the FIRST CONSUL entertained the bene volent intuition of leaving them fill a year among you, had your Government req wired it, &c." Basis, SIFT. 4—Citizen ALOYS REDING, who may be confidered as th e author of the great changes which have been effete d at Berne, thews himfelf as a chief on our new political horizon. As Prefideni or the five democratic Rates, Uri, Schwitz, Unterwalden, Glarus, and Appeniel, united in conferences : he has invited all the Can. tons of Swifferland, and the Rates depending on it, to fend each on the 24th two deputies, one for the town and another for the country, to form a general diet, which is to occupy itfelf in a new Contlituti on. We are affured that the fame ALOYS REDING, who will now refume the poll which he occupied before the Revolution of April t 7th, has fummoned the troops OfANDERMATT to return to their homes. The old Petty Council is already in aaivity ; our town was not the laft to Phew itfelf—as foon as we heard of the bombardment of Zurich, we declar ed for the old order of things. The papers of the two Prefab have been fealed up. The bombard ment of Zurich has been of great advantage to the infurgents. Our political troubles have obliged a great many ffrangeri of rank to leave us: among thefe is the Princefs of Dassau, the poet MAT. TNISON I and Mr. KING, the American Envoy.— More than fifty Engltfhmen quitted Berne in one day. Madame Vs tratAc has remained in the town. RATISBON, SEPT. 21. —As Baron Augur!, the Di reCtorial Mir;ffer of Mentz, was not able to pre vail on M. de I-local., the Imperial Co-commit fioner, to ratify the coadujim of the Bth, by which the Deputation accepts the plan of the Indemnities propofed by France and Ruffia, they afterwards confined themfelves to require of M. de Huctu. to return the conclayisi without ratification, in order that this important paper might be communicated to the Minißers of the Mediating Powers, and dif. patched without acceptance, as hasbeen often prac tired at the Congrefs of Raßadt. ' M. de Huost. rcfufed to return the comelufung either ratified or not ratified ; and replied, that he would confult the protocols of that celebrated Congrefs. Confequently in the lath fitting of the Deputa ti3n, held ou the 15th of this month, a rote was read from the Minillers of France and Ruflia, ad drtired to M. HUGH., in which the latter was par titularly invited to deliver up the celebrated corr. (Von, either to the Direaory of the Empire, that is to fay, to Baron ALBIN!, or to the French and Ruffian Minillers. The Deputation decreed alfo, that new ficps Mould & taken in regard to M. de 1-7.;:rat., and that in cafe of a new refuhtl, they ciaibcratc on the further meafures to be porfued. . Ina wor d, the mea f ure propo f e d b y a maprity of the members of the Deputation, who wifhed that th e afferubly fhould enter into a direa communica f-,n wit:,,;lit the intervention of the Imperial Corn miffionet , was about to he carried into execution, %then M. de Flocs'. refolved to deliver the Con c.;Ain to C. L -AMET and Baron de BUHLER ; but without being ratified. It was delivered up yef terday in confequence of new folicitations from the two Minifiers. This firft Rep of M. de Huott has already brought about a clofer intimacy between him and ' I the mediating minifters: the latter have received the particular claims which •M. de HUGEL has been charged to make in the name of feveral of the States of the Empire : it is however believed, that the greater part of them will rejeeted. Notwithflanding the united efforts of France and Ruffia to accelerate the evacuation of Paffau, on the part of the /Whims, we are afTured that the latter are making no arrangements to quit that place ; that they are even endeavouring to main- tain tfiemfelves, and waiting for reinforcements. It is faid alfo, that the troops of the Whop of PASSAu are to be incorporated with the Auffrians, which may, however, take place even if the Im perialifts, as may be expeeted, fhould comply with the wifbes of the mediating powers.

The Princefs Charlotte was to have failed this morning for London; but a contrary wins, and the louring appearance of the fides, have induced the Captain to put off the voyage till to-morrow; a very ufual occurrence on fuch occafions. Mrs. JORBAN 'has met with the moll flattering fuccefs at Liverpool, attracting crowded houfes eery night, and exciting a new enthufiafm for' he drama in that town, hitherto remarkable for its liberal encouragement of the Theatre. She has not only been warmly applauded in public, but care fed in private by the moll refpedable families, who have given her numerous and kind invita ! Cons. Under thefe circumftances, it is unneceffary ( to add that the is reaping a golden harm,. Yefterday morning, about five o'clock, Tome thieves made an attempt to break open the Duke of York public-houfe, in theßorough road, Surrey, when endeavouring to force an iron bar of the rations.

Sir WALTER FARQy !I AR, was fent for exprefs from Margate, who attended, but Mr. HE ATI4CO7E continued quite inlenfible till Monday forenoon ; it is hoped that he is now in a fair way of recovering.

BOXING. Since the period that Weber and Caleb Bald win beat Gamble and Kelly, two Irifhmen, on the fame day, on Wimbledon Common, Irith pu gilifm has fallen into great difrepute, and until yellerday none of that country could miler courage, fufficient to engage with any of the Brif tol party. Yefferday a pitched battle for twenty guineas a fide, was fought between O'Donneld, an Irithman, and Pardo Wilfon, brother-in law to Belcher. The ground fixed upon for the combat was the Scrubbs, through which the Paddington Canal runs, about four miles from Hyde-park Corner. At an early part of die day crowds 'of people were flocking tcwards Sold of battle, and the Amateurs never thesved wearer anxiety to behold the battles between Belcher and Burke, as the heroes of the day, though not polkaing their athletic powers, were known to be well (killed in the fcicnce of boxing, neither of them having ever 101 l a battle, although they had frequently been engaged in levereconflias. The young Irilhman did not appear to exceed eighteen years of age, and his opponent was not lefs than thirty. In height the Irilliman had a little the advantage, and weighed about four pounds heavier than his adverfary. At one o'clock not lefs than sOOO people had ' afrembled on the ground, when many attempts were made to form o ring, which could not be effeled till nearly an hour, and that only. in con fequence of a number of the well known pugilifis ufing thick flicks, and forcing the people to fall back, fuch were the number prefent. The outfide of the circle was formed by hackney coaches, carriages, carts, and vehicles of every defcription. —A man upon a grey boric in the ring, while rn-iking the animal kick at the people, to induce them to fall back, was thrown off, but had the good fortune to efcape tu.hurt. About •two o'clock O'Donneld and Wilfon en tered the ring, attended each by their I: lends.— 'f wo Irilhmen, whole names we could not learn, were Second and Bottle holder to the former, and Belcher and Tom Jones to the latter. The two combatants began to (trip together, and the odds feemed to be in favour of Wilfon ; they both appeared in good fpirits, and eyed each other minutely. When they were ready, the Seconds propofed that they fhould tors up for the choice of the fide of the ring, as they were both defirous to avoid facing the fun ; this advantage was gained by Belcher's friend. At five minutes pall two 'they fet to, and a general opinion was expreffed by the Amateurs that their Rile was equal to any thing they had ever feen. It was evident, that, although Wilfon had been tutored under Belcher, O'Donneld moil imitated his manner of fighting. Fir) Reunti.—Both kept a firong guard for a fhort time. The Millman made the fir[} blow, which Wilfon flopped and returned ; then both came to the ground together, O'Donneld having received a flight wound in his lip, which bled a little. Second Round.--Wilfon made a fc;nt at the Irithman, who firuck at the fame time ;. a (harp blow or two paired on both fides. The round con cluded with the Millman giving Willon a crofs buttock. Third Round.—The Irithman evinced much (lrength, Wilton fell back, and chopped at O'Do3- neld as he came up to him, with great rucceis. Hard fighting followed, but en d e d w i t h W l lib n receiving a knock-down blow. The odds now appeared in the Irifhmaroi favour. • Fourth Round.—Straight forward fighting. The Irifhman then made feveral blows at Wilfon's body, which he parried and returned, but O'Don neld flill followed him up, and did not quit him till he fell. There were very little odds, although it was evident that Wilfon declined in ilrength, and had received a blow in the right eye, but no blood appeared. Fifth Round.—Wilfon feemcd fearful to face the Irifhman, and a good deal of maneuvering took place nearly all round the ring, but O'Donneld (luck dole to his opponent, and (truck the &It blow, and Wilfon, though seemingly not much hurt,. fell. This round was more calculated to difplay the fcience than produce bloody notes. It , was now three to one in favour of O'Donncld. Sixth Round.—On the onfet Wilfon made a fuccefsful blow at the Irifhman's head, which did not bring him to the ground, but before the round finifhed, the Irifhman put in a blow at his adverfary's left fide, which obliged him to fall.— It then appeared a hollow thing, but thofe who fuppofed they knew Wilfon heft, perfided in the opinion that he had not yet come to the bell of his play. Seventh Round.—Wilfon endeavoured to alter his mode of fighting. He fuffered the Millman to alike firli, then flopped the blow, and return. ed it again with the fame artn ; but the blows given that way not being effedtual, the Irifhman followed him up, and again concluded the round in his favour. Eighth Round.—They fet to immediately, and this was the bell round of all for hard Ilraip,lat forward fighting. It was now thought Wilfon was bringing forward his referved ftrength, but he did not keep it up long, and was obliged to fall from a blow. ninth Round.—On meeting, the Irifliman hit Wilfon on the temple, and made him reel ; and following him put in another blow, which brought him to the ground. Tenth Round.—This was the laft round, which was very short. Wilfon receivinn , a violent blow on his ribs, fell againft the people at the tide of the ring, when Belcher whifpered him that it was of no ufe to perfevere, and advifcd him to give it in, which he confented to. The triumph of a great concruirfe of Iri ih on the ground was now complete. They }milted their Hero on their fhoulders, and carried him to a coach, fwearim they would make all St. Giles's ring that night for joy. Neither of the Combatants teemed very mu c h bruited about the head r face, hut they had re violent ceived man}' blowsblows on the body.
