His Majefly's plea. fare has been taken on the mature, and it is refolved that the prefent Parliament &all be diffolved imme. diately. The new writs will be Mud about the sad inflame. There can be no doubt that the country will ap prove of the condo& of Minifters in terminating a, aegociatioa carried on by France only for the purpofe of deception, and as a mean for the accomplifiantent of her own ambitious views. We as happy to find that the Country is Coon to be gratified with a Dsc AAAAA toe, on the part of Government, of the grounds and motives upon which the late Negociation with the French Cabinet was entered into, carried oa, and broken off. It is likely" that this proceeding will be followed up by a more minute and detailed F xpefe of the particolars which occurred during the cour(e of Negociation, and that the Declaration, which is expelled to ►eft upon the • molt triumphant grounds, will be forthwith laid before the Public. Ifefierday evening one of the hottel preffes for fealties ever known tool place on the River and in the neighbourhood. Two receiving flips came op 'break of the Tower. Every thing (lows that the aloft ea tenfive and energetic fyliem of operations will be car ried on, fince the enemy have left us no alternative but a vigorous profecution of the war, EAMBURGH MAIL AND DUTCH PAPERS. The Hamburgh Mail s due yellerday, arrived this morning. Dutch journals to the icth inftant, and Paris papers to the loth, have afro been received. The contents of there papers confirm the fufpicion we entertained, that there was no truth in the report of the Pruffian and French armies having had an en gagement. The movements among the troops, and changes of pofition are almoft inceffant, but the contending ar mica have not yet come into coated. They are, how ever, in fuch pnfitions that if an adjaftment does'not take place very fpeedily, it will be impoifible to avoid hofiilities. The country where they are cannot Cup pott them long, and they bate been affembled with ' fo much haße that it is not thought either of them have ruch magazine., provided as to admit of pro craftination in their mcafures. The Ruffians are advancing by forced marches to reach the kene of action—and Auftria rams to be preparing for the poffible event of being called into the field. Both the Eu and the Archduke CHaatss have left Vienna for Aufbia, under pretence of exa mining the plan of a fortification at Enos, not a Rose of which is yet laid, or even the ground marked oat, and which is to take up full five years in the conftruc tion. The real objett of his Majelly's journey is not of this trifling nature. The faft is, he is gone to vifit his army ; and the advantages of his prefence, in cafe be fhould take a part in the war, would be im, mediately felt through the whole line of operation. The French, it appears, have no intention of sir in up Brannan. On the contrary, they aft as if they were in hourly expectation of its being befieged. —They have clofed the gates againft all travellers ; &ad thole who have occafion to pars into Auftria are obliged to take another route. Sorely all this furpi cion is sot directed again!! Pruffia, who has not a Bogle battalion within fiaty leagues of that form& The truth is, that they are afraid of an attempt by the Anarians to carry it by a mat& mass j an appre benfioa neither very idle nor groundlers. Notwithfianding the feemingly decifive eharaßer of the movements of France and Pruffia, it is fill poffible the latter may tenaporife; and, by the fame thort-fighted policy by which it has already brought Europe into a molt deplorable (late, feal its own doom by patching up a peace. It will be feen, by the fubjoined letters from Hamburgh, that there are ru mours of an approaching interview between NAPO ILIION and FIIIDIAICA WILLIAM. Should filch an event take place, we fear it will prove a fatal meet ing for Pruifia and for Europe. " PRIVATE LETTER—HANIBURGH, OCTOBER sc. We have been in expalation for thefe two days of bearing of the commencement f hoctilitles ; but this evening we hear tbat Baron IianBILSDOILIV is tome to Mentz, and that the negotiations will be there continued.

" It is confidently reported here, that Bonataails has requeQed to have a perfonal conference with the King of Paussta, but that this has been refuted. " It is alto gray/ally Paid on the Continent, that Eogland bas agreed to pay the King of PRUSSIA a fubfidy of three millions Qerling to enable him to pot all his troops in /110Clon. 41 A French °Seer of engineers, who for tkefe two years pa& has Tim' in the capacity of a millcr's man, at one of the mills in Magdeburg, has been dlr. covered to be a fpy, and hanged. A complete plan of the fortifications and outworks of the fortrefs was found on him, which he confeffed he bad himfelf taken." CALABRIA. We have already Bated our reafons for fearing that the recent reports of a frelh defeat having been (of fered by the French in Italy, are merely diftorted echoes of the battle of Maids. We are nor, however, entirely without hopes that the news may yet be confirmed. A Gentleman, arrived in Lordln from Leghorn, by the Weft arrivals from the Continent, Rates, that prior to his departure (we have not been able to nicer. taia the precife date, but know that it is recent), ac coasts bad reached that city from Naples, of great and continued dif.afters having befallen the French troops in Calabria. It was fully nnderflood there, that a fee on d gene ral engagement had taken place, in which the French were completely defeated. General JOU.. DAN is Rated to have been killed by a rnuiket that difcharged from a tree by a Calabrian. Kass era is alto Paid to have been dangeroofly wounded ; and mot! of the officers of rank either killed or wounded. This villory, though glorious, was parchafed with the Ws of many valuable lives. After this fanguinary affair, the remainder of the French fell back upon Naples ; and it was even Paid that they bad quitted that city, aid had fought fhelter in the Roman territory. We alto learn, that a refpeaable Banking-honfe in the City received a letter from Vienna, dated the a4th of September, which Elates, that intelligence had been received there of the total difperfion of the French troops in Calabria on the 22d Augull, when nsoft of the Officers of rank were killed prior to the flight of the French. This decifive blow is raid to have been given by an armed force of infurgents, headed by a woman of the name of Rossi, whore hatband was inhumanly butchered by the French,for being inimical to the Ufurper's Government. This 1 formidable force call thansfelves the " Army of Ven geance." Joust, Bo the account Bates, Bed to Florence. It is true that the French Papers continue to *Sem that though they had fuffered forme trifling Tobin Italy, (alluding to the battle of Maida), that their affairs have fine been retrieved in that quarter, and the Englint driven from the country.
