t win transfer their refulence to this place, during his Maielly's abfence from Paris. A part of the houlchold effahlifliment of Count COBENTZ FL, the Auftrian Ambuffador at Paris, have paired thrt,ugh this city, for Vienna. The Ambaf- Lido( himfelf ill. we are affnred, arrive here in the courfe of a few days. AUGS CURGH, Ocr. t.—The pang of the Rhine by the French army feems to have very much derang ed the calculations of the Auflrians. Their Generals, fince they have been apprifed r f that event, hold daily conferences, and do not appear to know well what meafures they &mid adopt. The Archduke FERD!• NAND, who is at the head of the army, does nothing of himfelf ; and General MACK, who direets the ope rations, fends one courier after another to Vienna to demand infirurlions. He is one day at Memmingen, the next at Ulm, and the third on the oppofite hank of the Danube. It is obvious that he is not without con fiderable apprehenfinns, and that he dreads an at tack on the part of the French army. Several cou riers have been fent to the Ruffian army in Moravia, to pre General kuvusow, in the molt urgent man ner, to accelerate the march of his army. The only provilional me fore hitherto adopted is that of de• taching a con fiderable reinforcement to the Austrian a rmy on the lift of the Danube. Several regiments have left the right bank of the Tiler, in order to rcpafs the Lech and proceed to the Upper Palatinate ; that province, which is at prefent occupied by the Auf trians, being menaced by the advance of the French in Franconia. _ _ _ We have kill received intelligence that feveral re giments of troops from the frontiers are 'rave:ling Upper Auftria ; and advancing, by forced marches, to the Lech. he regiments of Peterwaradin and Bood are exile led to reach that river on the 9th : thole of the Bannat and the Illyrian villages on the seth • and the firft and fecond Wallacbian regiment on th e 16th. According to the a d vices from theTyrolefe, 23,000 men are encamped near Trent. The garrifons of Fiume, Rara, Porto, and Ree, have been conveyed by lea to Venice. They have been replaced by Ruffian troops from Corfu. SOLEURE, SEPT. 30.—1 n the fitting of the Extra ordinary Diet on the 25th, the Landamman prefented a ri.iiort reipeCting the million of his brother. Col. Gcurz, to the Imperial Court of Auftria. Colonel Gauiz had returned from Vienna the preceding evening, and brought with him a letter from the Auftrian Monarch tor the Helvetic Chief Magistrate . This letter gives an alturance of the intereft which his Majefty took, and always had taken, in the happinefs of Switzerland, and confeque ntl) slated his readinefs to recognife, in the most folemn manner, the nenti ality of the Cantons, as loon as the French Government should have officially recognized it on it part. In confequence of this report, the Diet refolved to fend a Deputation to the Emperor of the French, at Strafburgh, to make irritable reprefentations to him on the fubjed. This important miffion was confided to the late Landamman, d'Arrar, who let out as loon as he received his initruit;ons. The Diet Then appointed ten Colonels to ferve under the Commander in Chief, and ordered a fecond contribution for the fubliftence of the army. The objea of the Extraordinary Convocation of the Diet being thus accomplilhed, that Affembly was diffolved the day before yefterday. M. de Wary Eviccr, the Commander in Chief of the Federal army, efiablithed his bead.quarters at- Zurich on the 27th; and he has fince detached a battalion of Soo men to Schaffhaufen, under tbit command of Colonel HOLZBACH, in order to protect the frontiers in that quarter. VIEPINA, OCT. 2.—The Ruffian troops, who are conveying in 3000 waggons, are expected to reach Brannan on the loth, whence they will continue their route for Dachau, three leagues weft of Munich.— The firft column will reach °cuing, Haag, and Parr dorf on the 16th ; the fecond will arrive on the ath, the third on the aoth, the fourth on the 22d, and the fifth on the 24th. This army confias of forty-four battalions, all picked infantry. FROM THE LAST HAMBURGH MAIL. COPENHAGEN, Om 8. —ln the afternoon of the 6th inft. a Ruffian fleet, confifting of five fail of the line and feveral frigates, came to anchor off Drano, in the Ilk of Ameack. Several of the Officers have already landed here; and it is fuppofed, that to-day or to.morrow the fleet will come up to our roads. The whole of the troops under orders for the Du chies of Schlefweig and Holitein, are on their march thither. His Royal Highnefs the Crown Prince will pet Comity affume the command of the troops which are affembling in the Duchies. Prince CHRIS TIAN and the Duke of WHILTIMBURCH will alfo Lave commands. BRAUNAU, OCT. I.—The firft Ruffian army which is expeded in our vicinity by the loth inftant, is not accompanied by any corps of cavalry, as all the le iiments of which it contifts arc conveyed in waggons, sn order that they may reach the Lech with all poi lible expedition. This anny will be joined by fever regiments of Auftrian cavalry. STRALSUND, OCT. 6.—Gcaeral ARSIVELDT took the field with ten battalions belonging to our garri lon, in order to proteA the landing of the Ruffian troops, in cafe of neccffity. The arrival of his Swe difh Majefty ibortly expelled. OrvosCß s.—The RnfTian troops have landed at t!.ree different Cocas in l'crnerania. They are all vary line picked men. There are among them the eniratler Guars:,, the Grenadi•rs of Pau• 11,%,fki and fume Yagers. Lieutenant General,Ton- STOY is hill with his ssvediih Majefty in Scania. Ge neral OST2NMAN, yelp, commanas the Ruffian troops in the abfence of Gcn. ToLsroy, has his head-quar ters at Greifwaid. Among the Ruffian Officers who have arrived in Pomerania, are PrifiCt BIReN, Count NARISCHK SIN, and Count Mtentaz Vnx WORhNZOW. On the sth inft. the Prutlian Commandant at An. clam bad an interview with the Commanding Officer of the neareft Swedith puff, to whom he declared, in the molt obliging terms, that the troops of his Sove• reign were ditceicd to condo& themselves towards the Swedes in the moll friendly Manner. A part of the warps in gatrifon here marched this day for Greifwald. The Ruffian tioopc, to the number of I st,ooo, oc cupy the diftriets of Loitz, Laffan, and Grimme. Qcarters are already prepared for au additional toady of %mops expneed from Svrodoo. ' Hamovai, OCT. y.—two Hanoverian Ofnders have been conveyed, under a guard, to the fortrefs of i Harr In. They are to be teed as (pies by a Court Martial. Report Rates, that on the perfon of one of 'llttri papers were found of confiderable importance. Notwithttanding the reinforcements fent to the army commanded by Mat fbal BERNADOTT4, it is afferted, that the French troops fiillremaining in theEletiorate amount to between 7 and Soo° men. HANIBULGII. Ocr. t I.—On the 3d infl. arrived at the file of Rupen, 49 Ruffian tranfports, having on board about 6000 troops, infantry and cavalry. They belong to the expedition under the command of General Toxsvoy, the late military Governor of St. Peterfburgh, who alfo failed from Cronitadt in the night of the 23d ult. The ref of the Ruffian troops, amounting to about t 8,000 men more, were houtly expeaed. Several Ruffian General Officers landed at Stralfund on the 4th inltant, and on the sth all the auxiliary troops were conveyed on (bore in the neighbourhood of Stralfund, where they are quartered in the neighbouring villages. The parti zans et the French in this place reprefent this event as an infringement of the Pruffian neutrality; but they are much mitlaken. His Pruffian Majetly, finding that the French Rill keep poffealion of the city of Hanover, and the fortreffes of Nienburgh and Hameln ; finding alfo that the French armies have paffed thro' thofe countries bordering on the Rhine and Mein, which he intended to have included in his plan of neutrality, has changed his refolution with regard to thole countries, and will only defend the neutrality of his own polfeffions, declaring, that he will treat as an enemy any power that (hall dare to force its way through them. The Ruffian troops, in conjunction with the Swedifh, which latter alfo amount to ao,ooo men, are daily expelled to put ' themfelves on their march from Pomerania, for the Duchies of Mecklenburgh, Lauenburgh, and the EleCtorate of Hanover. The Danilh army has begun to enter the Duchies of Schlefwig and Holitein, and the Prince Royal of Denmark, accompanied by Count BF it NSTORFF, the Minifter for Foreign Affairs, is daily expefted at Altona. The exportation of horfes and earn from the Danilh dominions, except under contraels for this city, previoufly confirmed by the Government, is OriCtly prohibited. Similar meafores have been adopted in Pomerania and Mecklenburgir. The neutrality of his Pruffian Majetty, if he ad. heres to his own declaration, officially made to the Ruffian General MIEIVRLDT, and the French Gene neral Duane, at Berlin, feems now to be at an end, as the combined Gallo Bavarian troops, have com mitted a molt wanton violation of that neutrality, by forcing a patrage through the Margraviate of Ant. pach and Duchy of Bareuth. The intelligence of this unexpeeled event reache,l Berlin on the 6th, 7511, and Btk intl. On the fira day it did not obtain much credit, but on the fecund, dif -. patches, with particulars, being received from the `'inifter relident at Anfpach, as well as from the Military Authorities, a Great Council of State was held. which 'ailed from two o'clock till near eight in the evening. The refult was inftantly forwarded to the King, and difpatches were fent to the different Generals in command throughout the Pruffian do. otinions. In conferpence of thefe difpatches, the EleCtor of Heffe CAM immediately fet out for his command in Weftphalia. His Pruffian Majefty came to the capital the fame night, when another Council was held, and more coursers expedited with difpatches to different foreign parts. The King is laid to take up the matter in a molt ferious light. LONDON. SATURDAY, OCTOBER t 9. PRICE OF STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONF. O'CLOCK: Coot°ls, for money, 381-I—for Nov. S.

The violation of the Prullian neutrality was the fubjed of many letters received by the Mail of yefter day, and foon became the topic of general converfa tion in town. Will Pruffia bear fuels an infult ? Will Pruffia fill remain neutral provided France (hall commit no farther aggreffion ? WiU not the King of Pruffia now open his eyes to the fate that awaits him Should France triumph over Attalla ? Such were the queftions generally put on hearing this intelligence; but we muff wait till events give the anfwer. Several Councils were held at Berlin on the receipt of the news of this outrage, and fume accounts Rate that the Pralian Cabinet came to the refolution that a fr ee ;mirage lhould be given to the itufnao Troops, and that no obftacle Should be given to the march of the Allies into Hanover. Such at kall ii the report propagated in the Miniflerial circles. Indeed thole in the confidence of Minifters continue to fpeak con. fiJently of the favourable difpofition of Praia, and this incident may doubtlefs contribute to produce it. At the fame time any fanguine calculations on this fulled would be premature. The Ei.scroa of BAVARIA has publiffied a long and curious jutlification of his conduit in joining the French. It is not, however, drawn up with much abi:ity, its logic being principally of the Tallerandone kind. The Aufrians, from the beginning, evinced a diftruft of the intentions of the Ecacroa of I3ava au, which circumfances have (hewn to be well founded. The condud of the ELECTOR of BAVARIA, and his diftruft of the Aultrians, were founded, per haps, on thole reprefentations of the views of Au If ria on Bavaria, fo pointedly alluded to by the French Government; and which, if falfe, Aufiria is called upon immediately to contradict. In the mean time the F►ench have gained the advantage or the rapport'. of the Bavarian arms to their eagle ► And, for the moment, throwing a certain degree of fufpicion on the motives of Aufitia. It has been officially announced, that the Ruffians are advancing in five columns for Btannan, °filing § Haag, Parsdorf, and Dhchau. On the toth the fit* column was to be at Braunau ; and at Dachau, three leagues from Munich, on the 16th. . The fifth and IA column is to be at Braunau on the tElth OCtober, and at Dachau on the 24. th. This army of Ruffians confi s entirely of infantry, comprifing 45 battalions of chofen troops. The expeited arrival of the Ruffians no doubt accelerates the march of the French and Bavarians on the right of the French army, for the purpole of attacking the Aultrian right wing, or for feizing a potation to retard and embarrafs that junflion. Government have alto received accounts of the arrival in Swedifh Pomerania of the remainder of the Ruffian force, of which we two days ago (laced voo to have arrived. The whole Ruffian force in that quatter amounts now to ao,ooo men. They have been' joined by to,ooo Swedifh troops, and were immediately to fet out on their muck We have received fume fets of French and Dutch journals. The former are not later than thofe from which we yellerday gave extrafts ; but the Dutch come down to the 16th infant. The neutrality of . Switzerland has been recngnifed by Auttria, and will be refpeCted by BONAPARTF, sill it be more convenient for bim to violate it.—(See our Extra&.) Gazettes have alfo been received from a more dif taut quarter—Sydney and New auth Wale:, from which we have extraded a lingular and interefting narrative of the detention and ill treatment of Captain FLII• DIRE at the lfle of France. It has ever fence Europe became civilized, been as much the enflom of nations at war to exempt from its operations all (hips on voyages of difcovery, as to refpeft the perfons of Ambeadors and Envoys. It was left to the reign of NAPOLEON to reftore more barbarous pradices : The American Newfpapers are full of animadver lions on the decifions that have recently taken place in our Courts of Admiralty refpetaing captures of rads colouratly the property of that country. They complain indeed of all the European Powers in dif ferent ways, but principally of this country againft which they even threaten reprizds It has been the pradice of the Americans to navi— gate veffels from the colonies of countries with which we are at war, to touch at Come American port for new papers, and then proceed for Europe, a: with Ainerkaa pcperty. This trick has been seen through, and for fome time paft all captures under such cir cumftances have been held legal in our courts of law. The Americans complain that the principle on which thefe decifions are given, has not been followed till lately, and that the introdudion of it ought not to have been Co fudden as to upofe their property to feizure, without their even knowing the risque to which they are now exporcd. A flrong memorial has been prefentcd by the American Minifter to Lord thwarssurtv on this bufinefs ; and his anfwer, as tranfmitted a few days ago, was, that it was a cafe of fuch importance as to demand time for ferious invefligation. We truft it will receive ferious invelligation, and alfo a candid and fair anfwer. The Rate of the exchange between this country and Hamburgh comfs over by the mail tkgrouts higher than by the former mail, which is an advance of ncar 3 per cent. in the courfe of one pun in our favour. This is owing to the meafure which was adopted by our Government about a fortnight ago, and which we fated to our Readers, of fending outfpe cie, and to put an end to the praCtice of drawing bills. So long as our fpecie will !ail, the fall of the exchange will be prevented ; but if the war goes on, all the fpecie which we have been able to coiled will Coon be exhaulled. It is certain, however, that great and laudable exertions were mon feafonably made to amafs fpecie ; and this is one among other proofs that Boma mars was taken by furprife, iince it is a certain fait that Englith merchants fucceeded in buying up very large fums of fpecic, in Holland, and fafely importing it into England. The traffic went on for feveral months, and it has proved not merely .t valuable fore to us at the com mencement of our fubfidies, but a fource of great mortification and inconvenience to BoaAPAILTI. At the moment of the declaration of Außria, he found the Banque d'Efcoaipte without treafure ; and conic quently without the means of making its payments in money. He has fince exerted every nerve to obtain fpecie, by demanding a contribution in Holland, in Portugal and Spain ; and by trying to obtain loans in Hamburgh, Heir; and elfewhere. The exchange between Paris and Hamburgh has fallen 2o per cent. in confequence of this fearcity of fpecie in France ; and even at that price no bills to any amount could be canted. The gth battalion of the King's German Legion paired through Dover yefterday, from Deal, on their route from Portfmouth to Ramfgate, where they are ordered to embark. A party of the Coldftream Regiment of Guards has marched into Deal, to do duty there. We are much concerned to find that Major-Gt.: neral Horittms is now lying dangeroufly ill of a bilious fever at one of fire hotels in Dovcr-areet. ifAVTICAL IWTPLLIGENCEa MAILS THIS DAY.—Wind N.
