FRANCE. FROM THE PARIS PAPERS. R ATlSlON,SEPT.3.—Notwithflanding the filence which alwaysreigns refpeCting the political opinions .and conneCtions of the Courts of Berlin and Vien na, on the fubjed of indemnities, it is Rill atFerted that on this point thcle two powers preferve the bell underftanding, and it is fuppofed that they will vote to a fimilar purpole on the Bth of this month in the deliberations of the Diet. What is very remarkable is, that out of 96 votes which com pote the College of Princes, 26 are at the difpolal of a tingle Mmifter. This Minifler is the Count de Goertz, the Pruilian Envoy; he has tight voices for Magdeburgh, four for Mecklenburgh, two for Baden, two for Naffau Orange, and by fubilitu tion feven for the EleEtoral Houle of the Palatine of Bavaria.

Difpatches were this morning received from Sir JOHN EORLASE WARREN. It has fince been re- 1 ported, that, from a merchant veffel, he had re ceived information of Lord KEITH'S Fleet having captured a French convoy, bound for Egypt. We are extremely happy to announce, that yef terday paired by Portfmouth, for the Downs, the ACASTO and LOWESTOEFE frigates, with the Raikes, NEWTON, and a large fleet under convoy from Jamaica ; two 'hips and two brigs (names unknown) are on chore off Stcniagcr. This day the Hamburgh Mail arrived, which las brought us the following communications : VIENNA, Sem §.—An approaching change in the Miniftry was talked of feveral weeks fence. This has now taken place; but it proves to be of a different kind from what was expelled, as it only relates to the Privy Council, which hitherto con filled of fix Minifters of State and four Counfellors, whole employments were feparate, and who never conferred together on public affairs. This Coun. en has been aboliftied, or rather it has received another form, and will now difcufs all affairs in the prefence of his IMPERIAL MAJESTY. The number of Members is limited to four, at the head of whom is the Archduke CHARLES, as Prefident of the Aulic Council of War; next to him is Count COLLOWRATH, as Minifter for the affairs of the Interior. The third Member is Count TRALIT ll•IIIIDORFF; and the fourth Count Louls DR CO IIENTZEL. The fon of the chief Phyfician of the GRAND Seminole is arrived here from Conflantinople to Rudy Medicine; he mull firll learn Latin. Cardinal C , who goes as Papal Legate to Paris, was formerly Nuncio at Vienna. The mutinous Janifaries of Belgrade, who nal keep the PASHA of that city in confinement, begin to want provifions. No communication is per mitted with them on the fide of Auftria. A num ber of Auttrian troops are affembled in the vicinity of Belgrade as a corps of obfervation ; and Ge neral JILLACHICH is arrived at Semlin. As the rebellious Janifaries have not received the aid they expeeted from Widdin ; and Turkifh troops are on their march for Belgrade, it is expeCted that they will be compelled to come to an accommo dation. Mr. DRUMMOND, the new Englint Envoy to the Neapolitan Court, has already paffed through Prague on his way to the place of his dellination. In the Convention concluded between France and the Pore it is flipulatcd, that the town and fortrefs of Pefaro fhall be guaranteed anew by the French Government to the Papal See ; and imme. mediately after the exchange of the ratifications, (hall be evacuated by the French troops; which arc likewife to be withdrawn from the other places in the Ecelefiaftical State, except Ancona, where a French garrifon is to remain, till the war in Egypt be terminated. Mote lc te, Sim 1 I.—lt is confirmed that the Cabinets of Vienna, Berlin, and Paris, ate agreed cn :he fubjett of the fecularizations, and that the Envoys of there powers at Ratifison, will proceed in the inotocoleconferenee to take further meafures fi:r the complete adjuftment of this affair. The Diet, it is believed, will concur by a Deputation eonfifling of, at Moil, four Members. Urrre RHIN!, SIPTEMZER I2.—According to a new ordinance, publiih:d in Belgium, all contri butions are to be paid up, without fail, by the end of the month. As thefe were before paid at inde terminate tames, and commonly every half year, many perfons are inclined to infer, that a change i; approaching in that country. According to a private letter from Paris, the preliminaries of peace prnpofed by England con fift of 11 iltiiCL:s, which were cont . :Litre(' on the sth init. in the Council of state, at which Boxo- PARTt himself pref:ded. The sth article (decor ding to this letter), is in firbfiancf-, thlt the prulLan troops (hall evacll3:C the Hanoverian ter. thory within fix weeks, and the French troops Belgium." It is however, much doubted, whether France, will confent in any manner to give up Belgium. The entrance of French troops into Switzerland appears now to be certain. Several corps of Swifs troops have received orders to hold themfelves in readinefs to march out of their refpeCtive garri- Cons, probably to make room for the French. On the sth init. all the Swifs troops in Zurich marched out of that city. BANES or THE MAINE, SEPT. 12.—According to letters from Paris, the Government there has in contemplation a meafure by which the whole affair of the emigrants will be at once terminated. It is propofed to frame one tingle lift of emigrants who (hall he for ever excluded, while all not con tained in this lift (hall be confidered as definitively erafed. It is fuppofed, that by this operation, out of 14.0,000 names, only to,ooo will remain on the emigrant lift. BERN, SEPr. 5. —To-morrow the Helvetic Diet will affemblc here. There are in the whole eighty one Deputies; nine Members of the Legiflative Council; three of the Executive; two Minifters, &c. and we now expect to have a definitive Conflitu tion; and that our Provifionary Eftablifhments will be changed into a final and conftitutional or der of things. MILAN, SEPT. s.—On the 24th ult. the diffolu tion of the Provifionary Government was declared at Florence. Senator Mozzt is appointed Firft Minifter and Counfellor of State; the Prefident of Juftice, BLOND!, Director of the Secretaryfhip of State; the Marchefe AN row to Coss], Counfel lor and DireCtor of the Secretaryfhip of Finance. The Counfellors Prince Coastal, the Chevaliers FOSSOINIIRONI and CLAN! retire, retaining their ti tles, and the latter with a penfion. The three Counfellors GIUSTI, Gtatt HI, and MARTINI, will likewife be received into the Council of State. The Minifter VENTURA has already refigned his em ployments, and will go back to Parma, and the greater part of the Spaniards who came with the KING are likewife making ready for their depar ture. BRE MEELEHE, SEPT. !G.—The expeetations of the inhabitants of this country, of being at length freed from the Pruffian troops, which of late have been kept up by various circumflances, are now confiderably *reared, by an expreffion in a Pro clamation publifhad at Hanover on the sd inftant This Proclamation ftriElly enjoins all the Inhabi • tants of the Hanoverian dominions, on pain of imprifonment, not only not to encourage defertion from the Pruffian troops quartered in the country, " and on their approaching retreat," but to prevent it by every means in their power. It is figned by Count KtELMANSEGGE, one of the Members of the Regency, and ordered to be immediately circulated for public information. In the mean time, the fig. nal pofts, which run from the coaft acrofs the coun try, were removed two days ago ; and the Pruf. fian Officers themfelves give out, that they exped orders to depart in the courfe of next month. (PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.) BERLIN, SIPTEMBER 12.—The intercourfc of our Court with foreign Powers has fill the cha rafter of a good underflanding, however multifa rious and important the circumfances may be on which negociations have been opened. Delays have indeed arifen with the Minifry of BONA PASTE, which, however, are fo far removed, that no breach of friendfhip can thence refult ; and a well-founded hope may be entertained that the prcfcnt harmony will continue. To this the way is particularly opened by the conceffion on our fide, that the GRAND Dust of TUSCANY, under certain conditions, flipulated by our Court, (hall be indemnified in Germany. The notification of the refult of the negociations on the fubjeft of the indem nification of the Houfe of Orange, in which France has been the mediator, is locked for with impatience. After the removal of the firft great difficulties which precasted themfelves, the bufinefs will be concluded to the fatisfaftion of the parties. But as this is connefted with other indemnifications, and concerns the taking polliffion of new coun tries, the Convention will not be made publicly known till there !matures take place, and then a formal renunciation of the Stadtholderfhip, by the Houfe of Orange, will be publifhed. In the affairs of Italy we have an intereft in common with Ruflia, particularly in favour of the KING of SARDINIA. On the other hand the Ruf fian Court interefts itfelf in the Eleflorate of Ha nover, and the evacuation of it by our troops.— His Majefly, however, fill delays this evacuation, which England labours hard to obtain, becaufe, till the complete conclufion of the German territo rial arrangements, the occupation of the territory of Hanover is a meafurc of political precaution. In the mean time, new cemtrafts for provitioning :he Pruffian troops in Hanover till the month of Oflober are concluded. About that period his Ma- Ambaffador to the Court of London, Baron KLnsi, vil,a hid quilted that fituation on ANC, and is now at the baths at Topluz, but more on seeonnt of the aulttratil fituation in which he would have found himfelf, in the prefent cir cumftances, at London; than for the reftoration of health, will return again to the Britifh Court. It is Paid, the PrufGan troops in this place, from South Pruffia and Silefia, will remain here till every thing is arranged fur aCting as circumftances may require. HANovER, SEPTEMBER 55.—Count MONSTER, and Mr. Pettra, Secretary of Legation, left this place yefterday for London, and it is univerfally thought that their minion relates to our prefent political fituation. The following is the proclamation lately iffued by our Government : Hanover, Septa, The troops of his PRUSSIAN MAJESTY being authorized to occupy a part of the German do minions of his BRITANNIC MAJESTY, it follows that, according to ellabliflied rules and privileges, tilde troops mutt have cafe condudt as long as they are allowed to continue in their quarters here. In purfuance of this, it is ordered and commanded to all fubjells of his BRITANNIC MAJISTY in his German dominions, under penalty of impri fonment, not to give occafion, in any manner whatever to defertion amongft the Pruflian troops, during their occupation of the faid German domi nions, and particularly on their ;alma evacuation ; but to give notice where fuch dcferters are to be found ; if poffiblc to take them up, and to deliver them to their neareit commanding officer, or to our nearelt magiltrate. This is to be noticed and ftritaly obfcrved by all fervants of the Government, to be printed and affixed in all places of public refort. (Signed) EIET/NANSEGG.

Imaxer COLOMES in particular was examined, and feveral papers were prefcnted to him. The rcfult of the trial is not yet known, and it looks as if the trial would take up Lome time. Three Englifh Polls are now due. Yefterday being the Anniverfary of the Kixo's Coronation, the Park and Tower guns were fired at one o'clock, and the bells of the different churches were rung, to commemorate the happy event. Yefterday a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, in Downing-ftreet, at which molt of the Members atlifted. Mr. ADDINGTON left town for Wimbledon about four o'clock, as did Lord HAWKESBEIRY for Roehampton. A Me fenger was in waiting at Lord HAWK issuar's Of. fice laft night, and expeEled every moment to fet off with dilpatches to Vienna. It is whifpered that fome diplomatic changes are again in contemplation, which will bring fome of thole Statefinen now in retirement again upon the (Inc. We are forry to learn that Lord Sr. VINCENT is again indifpofed at his houfc at Fulham. Panic E OF WALES.—To fatisfy the anxious en quiries into the Date of his Royal Highnefs's health, a Bulletin has been regularly illned at the Pavilion at Bnghton fince this day fe'nnight. That of laft Saturday was in the following terms : BULIATIN.-. Hill Royal Highners the PRINCE Of WALES Rill continues to (offer pain and Inconvenience from hit acci dent; but his Royal Highnefs is pet - redly well in health." His Royal Highnefs, we learn, complains prin cipally of his back, but the fall was fo violent, that alma every mufcle has felt the painful ei fees of it. He quits his bed only to make ufe of the tepid bath, which is prepared in an adjoining room, and to and from which he is under the ne ceffity of being carried by his attendants. The Honourable Mifs TOWNSEND is appointed Houfckeeper at Windfor Cattle, in the room of Lady MARY CHURCHILL, dcccafcd. Private letters from Conflantinople of the loth of Auguft !late, that according to the la ac counts which had reached that place, nothing of the lea importance had been done towards the reduCtion of Alexandria. Miami had been a fc cond time fummoned to furrender ; but he had wholly difregarded the notification, except by re turning a pofitive refufal to accede to the propofed terms of capitulation, and by repeating his unal terable relolution to defend the place to the latt extremity. The hopes of the final triumph of the allied armies in this conta are flreingly expreffed in thefe letters, and the arrival of a tew thoufand men to reinforce ME Nov's fcanty number of troops, inflcad of being a means of protraeing the cam paign, is viewed as the very circumltance which would compel the French Commander to agree to an immediate furrender. The army of the late Moua AD Bs v, now under the command of OSMAN Buy, has, it appears. made a general fubmiffion, and is now wholly united to the Allied Forces.— ', The French prifoners, who have been fur a con flderable time confined in different cales of the ' Black Sea, have lately been recalled by a ferman, for the purpose of being exchanged, and they ar rived about the beginning of Auguft in Conftanti nople. It is fuppiifed that thefe prifoners will be immediately fent to Toulon, and that an equal number of Turks will be returned, who may have been taken prifoners by the French in Egypt.— 'The noted Js an Boa Sr. ANDRI is among the number of thefe prifoners, and it is laid that neither his health nor fpiriu have been at all imp.tited by his long impsifunsuent.

A field of Barley, belonging to Mr. CHARLES RUTHERFORD, at Whitley, near Tynemouth, con. taining five acres, has this year produced s6o thraves ; being, on an average, more than a boll per thrave, which contain 34. fheaves, We learn with real concern that Capt.Paikst's life was on Sunday defpaired of. His leg and thigh had been amputated, one of the arteries had burg, and fuch was the effufion of blood, that he was on Sunday evening reduced to a low and al. mod hopelefs Rate.

The Marquis of Bare has retired to Cardiff Cat tle, in confequence of the Sea air and bathing hay. ing been found prejudicial to the health of the Mar. chioncfs, which has rather been delicate fence her accouchtment.

The above regiment is to take pa - A . l°n of the barracks at Shorn•Cliffe; but we underftand three regiments of the Guards, who are to arrive there about the fame time, are to be encamped. The Cavalry encamped near Brighton are very shortly to firike their tents and go into quarters. — The idea of fending Infantry there is given up, as in cafe of invafion, it is allowed, that their fervice nn the hills would not prove fo effectual as that of the horfe.

Sir H. B. HAYES, whole fentence is mitigated to tranfportation for life to Botany Bay, during his confinement conduCted himfelf in a manner truly eccentric. The room in which he was confined was hung with black crape, and the Dead March in Said was performed on a barrel organ while he was at dinner. He went to receive fentence with an illegitimate fon on his right hand, and hi. legi timate fon on his left. The latter was In much affected when fentence of death was paffed on his unfortunate parent, that he is now in a fever, and his life defpaired of.
