P"' CO! Se Et 'r tit • du ty Et • to • • I FRANCE. PARIS, so THERMIDOR, AUG.3B. The 2 tit demi-brigade of Light Infantry hap pening to pafs through Clermont Ferrand, the principal town of the department of Puy de Dome, on the 23d Thermidor, ( Aug. ) perceived an obeli(k, which the i nh abitants o f ? that city had erated to the memory of General Disuse, who commanded this regiment in Egypt. As might be e speEted, they were inftantly mfpired with all thole emotions which the recolleEtion of a deceafed leader is calculated to excite, and a ge neral cry was heard throughout the ranks, ti Let at do honour to the memory of our brave GentralP'— They immediately formed into a fquare battalion, a mode of forming very commonly adopted by this warrior ; the band played a number of mourn ful airs. A part of the regiment defiled round the °Wilk, and the carabineers whetted their arms on the pedelial. Thus on another occafion two grenadiers whetted their fabres on the tomb of Marelchal SAXII, and doubtlefs the carabineers of the zilt thought like them that the marble confe crated to a hero had the power of communicating valour.—journal du Defeafeurs.

The Confuls of the Republic, on the report of the Minifter of the Interior, refpeiting the taw of the 29th of lan Floreal, May 19, taking into con fideration that the ellabliffiment of the cufloms has for its principal objea to exclude articles of foreign i merchandize, the ntrodation of which might be prejudicial to the national manufaltures : that the regulations requifite for the accompli(hment of that end ought not only to leave unrenrained, but to -encourage exportation, continently with thofe precautions which are neceffary to prevent abufes from fpringing up; that in a word, the particular pofition of the ports, and the commerce of the cities of Cologne and Mayence require the fpeedy adoption which (hall on the one hand fecure the ad vantage of the fair trader, to whom every poffible facility is meant to be given, and on the other the interen of the public, which is defiroas of oppofing every °Mule in the way of fraud, make the fol lowing decree : --- - - - 1.

STUTTG•RD, AUGUST to.—Letters from Ratif bon Rate that the important intelligence had been received there, that his Majefty the EMPEROR has acceded to the Convention of the 4th of June. Though this intelligence has need of confirmation, it may be confidered as highly probable, the EM- I' ROR having made difpofitions which give reafon to fuppofe that he approves this Convention. The• German Journals announce that a Treaty of Com merce between the French Government and Runia has been concluded at Peterfburgh ; it is f iid to be highly advantageous to both parties, and t I be founded on the famous Convention of the 26th of June, laft year, which has eftablifhed the neutrality of the North. VrsNNs, A uc. 2.—The health of the Archduke CHARLES is now fo well reeftablifhed as to give a well-grounded reafon to hope that there is no fear of a fpeedy relapfe. His Royal Highnefs has for fome days refumed the bufinefs of his cabinet, which, however, is very prejudicial to him. It is not yet known whether he will go to Prague or Mergentheim. The Archduke Memo; Lima, fon of the Archduke FERDINAND, will be made a Knight of the Teutonic order next week, having finifhedhis noviciate, which lafts a year. Tranquillity, it is Paid, begins to be re.eftabli(hed in Turkey, in Eu rope, fince the Hofpodar of Moldavia has fet out for Wallachia, the Government of which has been entrufled to him. The Captain Pacha, the Com mander in Chief of the Turkifh troops, has af fembled near the capital an army of too,ooo men, to flop the rebels in their march ; but it is aflo. milting, that with fuch a force he fhould only wait for the rebels, who will certainly not go to meet him, but be fatisfied with plundering the diftria where they are. According to the Gazette of Brunn, a Tartar, arrived at Belgrade from Conftantinople, in eleven days, brought intelligence that a report was cur. rent in that capital that the SULTAN was dead.— A great fermentation prevailed at Conftantinople, and the guard of the interior of the Seraglio were continually under arms. JULY 3t.—Great preparations are making at Barcelona to receive the illuftrious per fonages who are to aerobic there for the double marriage of the Princefs and Princelies of Spain and Naples. The voyage will commence in the courfe of Auguß, and towards the beginning of September the Sovereigns of Spain, Naples, and Etruria, will meet at Barcelona. We are allured that the Marquis of VENTURI will govern Spain luring the abfence of the King. HAG ye, AUGUST to.—Today the Legillative Body will decide on the propofed General Amnef ty.

Faanessorr,Auc. 7.—APruffian Courier, who carries an official account of the occupying of the Pruffian indemnities by the Pruffian troops, has palled through Bruffets, on his way to Paris. On the 3d init. Eichsfeld was taken poffeffion of by the Pruffian troops. On the 3 tft of July, the military at Erfurt took the oath of fidelity to the new Eleetor of Mentz.

PADERBOILII. Auc. 5. —On the 3d init. Major- General L'Erromtook poffeirion of our territory, with five fqnadrons of hnirars of Blucher, two battalions of Bila, the Grenadiers of Sobbe, acid force Chaffeurs and Artillery men. Four hundred and eighty Grenadiers remain here in garrifon, the reft of the troops are diftributed in the coun try. The fame evening the General gave a ball and fupper. Wsszt., Ave. 7.—Ottr Gazette contains the following article : " Our troops, and the Officers and Commiffa ries were received at Werden by the Abbot in the molt friendly manner. At Ketwich, when the Pruffian Eagle was about to be affixed up, the in habitants took it and hung it up on a triumphal arch, which they hid ereaed for the reception of our countrymen. At - Ellin, the troops were nei ther welcomed, nor met at their entrance, the in habitants, after the example of the Magiftrates, re maining in their honfes with their windows (but. The military of Munfter will be incorporated with the Pruffian." RATISION, Auo. 6.—The Bavarian Deputy, Baron RICH SENO, received in the night of the sd init. a courier from the Bavarian Envoy at St. Pe teriburgh, to M. Posca, who arrived by the way of Berlin, and brought the General Plan of indem nities concerted at Paris, and ratified by his Im perial RUSSIAN MAJESTY. Two funilar copies of this plan will be laid before the Empire on the part of France and Raffia, by Citizen MATTHIEU and Baron ButiLza. In this plan the future (late of all the Empire, both with refped to the large and fmall States, is circumnantially regulated.— Wurtemberg, Baden, and HeH • e Calfel, are pro pored for the Electoral Dignity. The LM►EROI of RUSSIA had likewife recommended Mecklen• burg ; and the French and Bavarian Miniflers have promifed the co•operation of their Courts to that effect. •In the College of Princes, eight new voices are to be added, among whi i ch are Naffau, Ufingen, Naffau Weilburg, Salm, Kyrburg, and Leintngen. Ofnaburg falls to Hanover, but un der conditions that the latter !ball refign its claims to Hildeffieim and Corvey, and its eventual pof feffion of Sayn Altenkirchen to Naffau Ufingen.— The toll at Elsfleth is to be aboliffied ; but incom penfation, the Duke of Holftein Oldenburg re. ceives the Bifhopric of Lubec as an. Hereditary Principality, a part of Munfter, and the Hano verian Diftrid of Wildeihaufen. The Eledor of Mentz remains the only Ecclefiaffical Elector, and receives fuck indemnities for his loffes, that his re venue, in the whole, will amount to a million.— Eight cities, viz. Lubeck, Bremen, Hamburgh, Frankfort, Augtburg, Nuremberg, Wetzlaar, and Radibon, are to be Imperial Cities, and the two laft remain as before, the one the feat of the Chamber of the Empire, and the other of the Diet. The Imperial Cities, in all future wars of the Empire, are to be permitted to obferve a per fed neutrality. LONDON. MONDAY, AUGUST 23. PRICE OF STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK t 3 per Cent.

Yefterday we received Paris Journals to the 18th, and this morning thole of the 19th. A Dutch and a Hamburgh Mail have alto arrived.—While the French Government is to much embarralTed about the queftion of a Commercial Treaty, it is found that notwithfianding prohibitions and difficulties, or rather it is found that in proportion to thefe ob- Racks of regulation, Britifh goods, &c. find their way to France. A decree of the Confuls eftabliffies depots for all goods, prohibited and non-prohibit ed, at Mentz and Cologne. The ground alledged for this meafure is to fecure the facilities of tranfit, though no mitigation takes place of the laws again ft the introduaion of prohibited articles into France. The cuftorn•houfe will be obliged through their de pots to connive at the traffic. It is clear, indeed, that when goods are allowed to be brought publicly to be put in depot at Mentz and Cologne, means will be deviled of giving vent to them along the banks of the Rhine, and thus they would be fmuggled into France ; while the prefent taße for many Englith commodities continues in France, they will be fmuggled. Thole people in France who are engaged in the fmug gling trade will naturally be as clamorous as the alarmift manufaiturers againfl a treaty that would efiablills a free and recognifed trade. The bell policy of the French Govertunsut would bs there. fore to import jut as fevere a duty as would make fmuggling a lofing attempt. No other plan can proted domeftic manufaCtures better than this. The intelligence from Germany relates chiefly to the plans of indemnities, and of new modelling the Germanic Body, which are in agitation.— Pruffia has taken poffellion of feveral parts of its (hare, particularly the dominions of the late Elec torate of Cologne and Munfter. Report Rates that a number of new Eleftors are to be created. In Lei, whatever idle plans may be attempted a la Francois to give a new Conftitution to the Germanic Empire, the thing will be found to be impoffible. A mean, faCtious, undignified alrembly of the va• rions partizans of Auftria, Pruffia and France, may be formed and entitled the College of Eleitors, but it will only be a fccne of paltry intrigue, will be dellitute of real authority, and its deciftons, while defpifed by the lofing party, would give little real weight to that in whofe favour they were pro nounced. In fat, fuel' is the rage for encroachment, and fuch the dangerous principle on which the inckninities now claimed by the great States pro ceeds, that all the fmaller States will gradually be abforbed. Formerly their exillence and their rights were refpefted from habit, if not from a (cafe of juftice ; but the fpoliation being now recognifed in practice, prefents too much convenience to the great powers ever to be abandoned, or even limit ed in its ufe. Might has fo completely overcome right, that no other rule will be confulted ; and from time to time the quarrels of Princes will be appeafed, or their common cupidity gratified, by confifcating the dominions of their weaker neigh. hours. The Ecclefiallical States in the Empire are firft facrificed, hat the reft will find in their turn that they have no fatisfa/tory arguments to oppofe to ambition, and to the lnfl rttion of Kings and Confuls.
