DANIS OF THE Mal/1, Ara. 30.-,-There has been a new diaribution of the notch troops Rationed in the Elellorate of Hanover. The greater part of there troops are now in camp at Lunebourg ; ano ther corps is in a camp eftablifhed near Hanover ; a third corps at Stun, in the Duchy of Bremen; a fourth at Verdun ; and a !itch at Offetiudorif, in the county of Hadeln. In confequence of the fcarcity and dearnefs of pro- vifions in feveral parts of the Eleetorate, the Corn :tuna:. in Chief of the French army has tent a part of the troops from the camp at Hanover into the Principality of Gottingen. This is the motive for the entrance of French troops into Minden, tome leagues from He Calfel, into Dransfield, &e. but there is no French garriton in the city of Gottingen. Another French corps will remain in the Hanover ian Duchy of Ofnaburg. Marfhal BIIRMADOTTE, after having traverfed the different provinces of the Elettorate, and reviewed the troops, has returned to Herrenhaufen. We hare received intelligence from Upper Sus bia, that the Auftrian troops which have been hitherto Rationed in the different Imperial provinces, have matched for the Voralherg, where is to be concern wed a (mall corps of troops, which were to have made part of the divifion Rationed in the Tyrol.

Novostivzort at Berlin ex cited confiderabie intereft throughout Europe. That journey will be confidered in hillory as little better than a ferious comedy with a farcical conclufi sm— ile note which this Minifler prefented by way of apology for the fuddennefs of his departure, is even a greater objea of curiofity than the levity of his proceedings : and if it were allowed to indulge in pleafantry upon a fubjeft involving the happinefs of mankind, many inftances could be pointed out in the condua of M. Novositrzorr, which prove that he was qualified to perform the part of an arrant coxeomb. $$ He announced himfelf as the bearer of a pacific mediation,and the public journals rang for fix months with reports of his journey. He at Lift prefented himfelf as commitlioned to open a negotiation ; all the world applauded this happy difpofition ; France received it with extafy ; the paffports which he re quefted for France are without any previous explana tion tent to him, and at the moment that the hopes of Europe were higheß, M. Novosixviove, without having made any overture, without having mention ed a tingle propofition, without having even deman ded a conference, fuddenly quits Berlin, declaring that he is no longer authorifed to negotiate, He does more ; and this confeffion enables us to judge of the fincerity of his million ; lie declares that he is not authorized to negotiate either with the Emperor of the french, or with the King of Italy, or with the aanal Sovereign of Genoa, but with the head of the French Government. We really know not how to call this diplomatic referve. Without doubt, if his Excellency had been fatisfied of the rimplere fubmif lion of the Emperor of the French to the abfolute commands of Ruffia, he would feel himfelf autho rized to grant him a title which Europe has acknow. kdged, and which needs no farther confirmation.— The refervation in the note of M. Novosixvzorr does not, neverthelefs, appear the lets imprudent to all impartial and candid perfons ; it certainly will have no influence upon the determination of the Em peror NAIOLIOS,IAIO is not a man to facrifice things to words, and who weighs proceedings according to their due eftimate. The illtilltious Emperor of the French well knows, thAt ; century is not yet elapfed fin=e one of his aqui predeeffors refuted to give the Autocrat of RUG/ the title of Majefty ; and would only allow him that of Highnefs ; but as he wifhei for peace, he will not argue with the Emperor At.sx AND'S upon this hißorical proof of this nevunsfr if his family. NATOtrott judges of men by their perlbnal merit, and judges of Sovereigns only by the impor tance of their States. It is not the left furpriting, eat a Monarch animated, according to the declare tion of M. Novosixvzore, by fo fincere a with for 1 1 peace, fhould begin by calling in quellion the pin-1 ciples by which focial order and the tranquillity of States are protelted. The political confufion which prevailed in France, appeared for 4 long time the only reafonable Saute which could °haw& the pacific intentions of powers, and furnifli an excufe for their uneafinefs and coolnefs : they could with for nothing more conducive to their vital interefis, than to treat with a Government analogous to their own, which fhould at the fame time aflame the majefty of regu lar authority, and acquire all its folidity. By what extravagance has the Ruffian Cabinet, lams fight of this principle, iuvolved itfelf in that ambiguity of expreflion, in that confulion of qualifications ! There mull be then in the views of Ruflia an intereft para- , mount to the general intereft of Europe. " What could have been the real obltacle to the negotiation ? Was it the nomination of the Empe ror Naroxeon to the fovereignty of Italy ?. But he previoufly governed it under another title. The tide of King cannot be offenfive to Princes, more than , that of Pre fi dent of a Republic. Was it the Union ' of Genoa ? Genoa was already under .the natural prole lion of France ; the treaty of Luneviile left it at pedal liberty refpeaing the choice and form of its Government ; and betides, the intereft, thefree will of two nations, which unite with each other, is above all Treaties. $' In reading the obfervations of M. Novost xvzotr, upon the temporary changes which have condition. ally taken place in Italy (changes which have added nothing to the Continental (Irene), which have in no degree altered the fituation of France), one finds difficulty in believing that they fhould proceed from a Court whole power has earned a political form fo different. and aggrandifed itfelf fo prodigi ea,' ; which teems to have revived the ancient in fluence of Turkey to add to its own ; which advances With a tepid and Ready pace equally in the Afiatic and European Provinces of that tottering Empire ; which has openly pin itfelf in pofreffion of its commercial and political advantages, and to which to become the abfolute mailer of it. nothing is.want ing but to creel the Ruffian Eagle upon the morgues of Conftantinople, The Rile of this Note aprared no lets extraordinary titan its fubliance. ft it easy to difcover in its exaggerated complaints againfl the power of France, the feel of England, anxious to wren from her a naval port, and difpute with her the liberty of the fees; who thinks that the can no longer preferve her tyrannical power but by re-kindling war upon the Continent. This extraordinary Rile is not fuited to an independent State. Great furprife was particularly excited, that the negotiator fhould dwell fo carefully upon the 'Pis and the facrifiees of England for the general tranquillity. Such an apology would have appeared, in the mouth of any other perfon but M. NOVCSILTSOFT. as the moll bitter farcafm upon the breach of the treaty of Amiens—upon the maffa cre on board the Spanifli frigates—upon the plots and the corruption which England continues to main tain on the Continent, for the purpofe of renewing war and revolution. " Some awkwardnefs, therefore, was ditcovered in the Note of M. Novosivrzorr. We are juftified in fur/Kiting, that under the guife of an Ambaffador, he was, ill fad, only the emilfary of a fatlion ; and it is thought that the perfonal opinion of the Monarch went for nothing In this pretended mediation, iri which courtefy and good fenfe were lb far log fight of, fhq a miffion, the Oita of which was a negotia tion for Peace, began with an infult to the auguß Fei fon to whom it.was addreffed."

It is added, that our Government, as well as the French, have delivered a Note to the Ruffian Cabinet, containing a wish that the negotiations, which have mifcarried even before they were properly begun, (hould be refumed ; and it is Paid, that notice of this declaration has been given to the Courts of London, Madrid, and Berlin.

However, it is very likely that the whole army will be placed on the war ettablitbment, by the Set of September. Moreover, it is pofitively effaced, that feveral battalions of the frontier troops are already on their march to Italy, purfuant to orders ; and that sio,ooo Ruffian troops are already on the Autirian frontiers. A great mili tary promotion is alfo fpoken of, in which a Field Martha], foam Generals, and Major Generals, will be appointed. Four leagpes from Vienna, near Minkendorf, a (mall camp will be formed, for which the regiments Auerfperg, Archduke Charles, Savoy, and the gar rifon of this city, are defined.

On the aoth of this month the Archduke CIiARLIS will fet out on his journey to Italy.
