rnlr, ;n my liar :n t:ie conferences which I had with ' thl:r Excelltnc:es M. Duaoc and M. Desarostirr, had not declared that no troops whatever lhould th-ottf:01 the Margraviates, pointing out to them, nt the ftrne time, the route of communication, that Bavaria had flipulated for herfelf as the only one in 'which :he march of the troops was not likely to meet with any obltrudion. " It has been Lid, that in matters of filch import ance, a pofitive explanation Mould take place. is if that were a duty incumbent on the Power which re nofed in confidence on the faith of a principle, and n A upon that which intended to fubvert it. In (hors. a r.retext is made of fats which have never had any ~.her foundation than in falfe reports : and in irnput ;n% ontrtges to the Auftrians, which they have never r.omititred, the obfervation of his Majelly is only to the contraft which their condufa ofte'rs to ...t :.f 'he French armies. King could have eaten drawn from thi: con trail conclufions more unfavourable refpellin g the intentions of the Emperor. He will confine himfelf t o the refleftinn, that his Imperial Majefty had at leafi his rearms for confide: ing therfiftve engage ments which esilled between him and Pruflia, as of no importance in his eyes; under tile prefentlircutn (lances ; and that he hinsfe'f was confequently on the point of facrificing every thing to adhere to his en.' gagements. " lie confiders hioifelf at this day abfolved from all obligations antecedent to the prefent time. Thus reflored to that Hate of things, in which he hai no other duty than that of his own fakir and the max ims of common junk?, the King will not the lets evince that he is always animated by the fame pt in ciples. To fee Europe participate in that peace, in which he afpires to maintain his own fuhjees, is his only with—tn contribute, by all the means in his Power, to re-ellablith it upnrY a folid balls, and to apply to this great wink his alive mediatinn, and his unremitting endeavours, (hall be his chief duty. is But, impeded on every tide in there his noble in tentions, the King can no longer entrua to other hands than his own the tate of providing for the fafety of his people. Wit ,out obligations for the future, and alto withnnt aft noes, he finds himfclf compelled to order his Armies to occupy thnfe pofi tions which are indifpenfablyneceiTary for the protec tion of the State.

As our Paper was at prefs before the nature of the difpatches re ceived by Government from the Continent was fa fered to tranfpire, we fhall, for the general int trma. Lion of en r Ittaders, recapitulate the leading features of the News of yefterday, and add fu.ch other parti culars as have fince become public. LORD NELSON'S VICTORY, As it was the moll important, fo it occupied the larger part of our columns, nor are we yet done with the fubjed. By the rictus fchooner, feveral particulars have been received relative to thisglorious anion which deferve to be made known. Towards the middle oflaa month Admiral Vic tims ova received orders, from Paris, to fail at all events from Cadiz before the 2 tfl, to accomplifh a particular object which the Emperor had in view. Vtu.twseva knew that Admiral Louts had been detached with feveral Chips from the fleet off Cadiz, and fuppofed that the force had been, in confe quence, reduced to about twenty fail of the line, it not having tranfpired that a reinforcement had ar rived fhortly after Admiral Lours's departure. Lord Nizsom had been apprifed of the inftrustions which VILLENEUVI had received, and of his in tention to obey them. His Lordfhip was, there ftre, thoroughly prepared to meet the enemy. On :be ether hand, the Commanders in Chief of the Combined Fleets having learnt that the Hero of the Nile commanded the blockading fquadrnn, were fully fenfible of the kind of reception they would meet with, fhoold he fall in with them, and therefore, it is pre f.-lied, had confulted upon all the means neceffary 'or a vigorous defence. It was not poffible that two 'Teets could meet on more equal terms with refpe.ft to As Coon as Lord NE Lsox was convinced that he 411 it in his power to bring the enemy to aftion, • the 2 I fl, he canted it to be underftond on board • •very Ship, " That England expeaed every •••ii to do his duty." There wac, however, little :eiTity for the intimation ; every man teemed to p,—„:e of the ardour cf the Commander in Chief, • a' td burned with impatience to commence the alien. On no occafon whatever have oar brave tars felt Inch confidence of fuccefs. It was the word through out the fleet, "'that when led on by Lord Nst.sms, they were lure of viaory, whatever might be the dd.. parity of force." At the commencement of the anion our (hips eon tefied with each other, as far as was conliftent with ' the prefervat:on of order, the honour to get fir( en gaged. The Vacroav did not fire a (hot until the was dole aloogfide the Sandlllma Trin;dada, when the Commander in Chief ordered her to be lased to the enemy. As foon as the men began their work, the Commander of the Santiffistaa Trinidada defired his men to al lift in lathing his (hip to the Vicroar. It was about two o'clock, w'ien the battle was at the hotteft, that thy gallant NELSON received a mnfket ball in his breall. What was very remarkible, rt ab folutely penetrated through the ftar which be wore. The BRITANNIA, and Pawl having driven from their Rations, were prevented from (haring in the ac tion to the extent they could have wi(hed. The Illt.ceiscs did wonders; the was the fiat in the anion, and one of the lift nut ; and, we are lorry to fay, the number of her killed and wounded is very great. .The Vicroav alfo fullained a great loft. At the time the Pfeil.. fchooner left the fleet, which was fame days after receiving the difpatches, it blew a very heavy gale of wind. The Admiral had caufed to be funk about eight of the (hips, and had ordered the men to be whhdrawn from nearly all the ref, and their malls and rigging to 5e cut away preparatory to finking them. There was one fine (hip in the care of the DONICI4L and EUETDICE frigates, which the Admiral wifhed to preferve ; theft two (hips joined after the anion. By this time Admiral Ducitworrit wr.l nave rein forced out fleet. The enemy made Ceveral unfnceersfut attempts froln Cadiz, to recover Come of their Itraggling flips. AUSTRIAN VICTORIES. The Archduke FEIDINAND, far Whole f4fety great fears were entertained after the furrender of General NAM feems to have furprized the French as much by trolling the Dannhe, as the latter did the Auf trians by marching through Anfpach. Difpatches received by Government announce, that the advan• cage mentioned in our Paper yeflerday, in letters of the 22d ult. from Berlin, to have been gained over the French, was obtained by the Archduke FERO!. 't* n. Between Nordlingen and DinkeneJihl, he fell in v i h a French efeort of artillery and ammunition, and fitcceeded in captutingffry cannons and one hundred ammunition waggons. We alio ant.onnced yefierday the confirmation of ,the in.elligenee given in this Paper on Monday lan, of the At chdlike CH A k Lrs having obtained a vietory in Italy, having taken Verona, and made 4030 pt ifoners. CAPTURE OF A FRENCH CONVOY. We had alto yefleriay the fatisfaaion to announce that his Majeßy's (hip EGYPTIEN ME had captured a convoy of twenty CO. laden with naval :lore', bound from llilboa fee Rochefort. The greater part of them were deliroyed. as it was found impoffible to bring them all home. This capture will be feverely felt by the enemy, as it tends to deprive th e m of the ve r y means of repairing arty part of their late difaficr. AFFATRS OF THE ALLIES. In nur Second Impreflion, we h„} to announce the arrival of Captain I.44cronn trom the Elbe, accom panied wi:h a Ruffian Officer, and that he had brought with him difpatches of great importance.— They contained a copy of A TREATY or ALLIANCE OFFENSIVE AND DEFENSIVE BETWEEN AUSTRIA, PRUSSIA, AND SWEDFN, To which it was expefted Denmark would alfo accede. In confequence of this arrangement, Eighty Thou. land Pruflian troops were asftually on their march againß the common enemy, when the Difpatches were fent off. The Emperor of RUSSIA had been to Berlin, where he had a conference with his PrufGan Majetly. I.lperarls of One Hundred Thoufand Ruffians and Attilrians were affembled on the Inn, where a fecond Ruffian army of Sixty Thonfand more, commanded by the Emperor in perfon, was daily expeeted t t join them. 'lle Emperor of G iassaa y was alp, marching at the head of another army, and liming hopes were entertained that the advantages gained by RONAPA era in confequence of his having difregarded the neutra lity of Prnffia, would loon be compenfated by the aEuivity, vigour, and unanimity of the Powers now leagued agoinft him. On the fobjeft of this violation of the territories of a Neutral Power, we have this day laid before our Readers a Copy of the Note deliveted by Baron HARDENBLIM to Duaoc, and U. LAIM• REST, the French Miniller at the Court of Berlin.— It is an important (late paper, in as much as it (hews that the palf-tge of the French troops through the Margraviate was not the effect of inadvertence, or even of a paramount neceffity, but was the refoh of a precoocerted determination to outrage and infult the Government of his Pausstan ktaissvir. SECOND EDITION. A be We announced yellerday th a t B ou l ogne was.to be attacked by the Expedition which ailed a few days ago, afifed by the force under , SIR SYDNEY SMITH. It is this afternoon currently reported that the at. tack has been made and has fucceeded to the utmoß extent of our wilhes. We do not find that any of ficial accounts of this event have been received, but report fays, that the whole flotilla, gnr.boats, praams, and other craft; prepared for the invationathis coun try, have been wrapt in flames, and fallen a facri fice to the indignant vengeance of Britifh valour. How or by whom this Report originated, we have not been able to learn. Certain it is, as has already been Rated, that no fuch accounts have been received at any of the public Offices. THE MARKETS.
