" For along time, facceffve changes, which have ions on augmenting from age to age, had reduced die Germanic Coaltitution to be only a Widow of it. Coif. Time had changed all the relations of grandeur and of Arength which originally exiled among the Umbers of the Confederation, and between each of them, and the whole of which they made a part.— The Diet bad cenfed to have a will that belonged to Well: The &names of the Supreme Tributuds mold am be pat is execution. Every thing atteled an en feeblement fo great. that the federation tie no longer proles -any guarantee , and among the powerful was oa a cads of diffenlion and difcord. The events of the three coalitions carried this enfeeble- 1 ment to its tweak length. One Eleftorate has been fuppreffed by the union of Hanover with Pruffia ; a Northern Power has incorporated with his other Hates one of the provinces of the Empire I the treaty of !suitors has alfigned to the Kings of Bavaria and Winernliag, and die Eledor of Baden, the plenitude of Sovereignty—a prerogative which the other Eke.' tees would claim, and be entitled to claim, but which could accord neither with the fpirit nor the letter of the Conaitution of the Empire. s• His MajeAy the Emperor and King is therefore obliged to declare. that he acknowledges no longer she exalt:nee of the Germanic Coallitution—at the fame time neverthelefs, recognizing the entire and abfolute fovereigoty of every one of the Princes, of what Aates Germany at this day confifts. and pre. kr wing with them the fame relations as with the other independent powers of Europe. ss His idajeAy the Emperor and King has tecep ted the title of Proteaor of the Confederation a( the Rhine. He has done fo only from pacific views,and that hip mediation, conflantly interpofed between the weak and the Arong, may prevent every kind of tlif tuition and diforda. " Having thus done enough for the deareft inte. retie of his people and of his neighbours—having provided as much as lay in his power for the future tranquillity of Europe, and in particular for the tran quillity of Germany, which has been conftantly the theatre of warh-in putting's period to the contra. diftion which placed the nations and the Princes tin der the apparent protettion of a tram really con trary to their political interefts and their treaties, his Majefly the Emperor and King hopes that the na 1 Lions of Europe will at length lend a deaf ear to the infinuations of thole who with to cherifh eternal war upon the Continent ; that the French armies which have pared the Rhine, (hall have paled it for the laft time ; and that the people of Germany will fee Wo longer. in the hifinry of the pall, any thing hut the horrible piifture of diforders of every kind, cf de- wafiations, and of maffatres, which war always brings fa its train. ' ', His Majefty has declared that he would never extend the boundaries of France beyond the Rhine: be has been faithful to his promile. At pi efent, his only defire is to be able to employ the means which Piovinsacs has entrufled to him, f .r the put pule of 1 alerting the liberty of the feat, of reftoring to cotn• =ace its liberty, and fectoing the reprice and happi neflof the *4,11d.

For tonic time a very great fer mentation has reign ed in &eolith Pomerania t thufe who are injured by the new order of things loudly exprefs their difcna tent. On the other hand, the inhabitants of the country are very well fatiefed, the feudal fyßem of villainage having been very opprefEve in that coun try, even more fo than in any part of the Prutlian Rates. The Ring, fince he fucceeded to the throne. has been frehuendy petitioned by the States to re ceive the performance of fealty and homage as Duke of Pomerania; but his Majefly has condantly poll poned fatisfying this deism. under various pretests. However, the Ring will now take the oath as King of Sweden, and the Qren is experted for this pur pore at Stralfund. There has been much talk of the changes that have taken place at St. Peterfbargh t what is certain is, that M. and Madame Dc Nardchkin have quitted the Court. ENSCHEDE, AUGUST 3.

We km from Ulfin, a little town in that county, tbillf labew French troops have arrived from Northam; that die Pruffians had evaelated Nieohuis, and that the OS. cers of all ranks o?,he county of Beatheim had bead convoked, in order to take the oath to their new Sir : vereign. to be adminifered by General Dave* Commandant of the French troops. According to other news from that country. the oath of fidelity was to be adtniniftered by two difinguifhed perfons who were every infant expetted from Doffeldort and who would take civil pnifeffion as well of that county as of the country on this fide the Ems.

The order and regularity with which the different regimenu marched 'pa i ned the juftnefs and precifinn with which they performed their mem:meting. and firings, Ceased to afford to his Royal Highnels a high fide of their Matt of difciplitx, which he st• 4 pleafed to tlgnify to the troops before his quitting tLe ground.

OPHTHALMIA. voudy Aided . complaint . found to be mom preuleut among the folding of the fame room, while other rooms have been entirely *tempt from it. It is rational, therefore, and on an thority we recomannid, that ophthalmic patients bo fsparately confiaed to a cool and darkened apartment, that their eyes be attentively kept clean by frequent • wadies and injedions, and treated with onolfwg apps. cations and returning poultices. Evacsants, horse bliAers, leeches, free fcarifications, and the Paid and prudent ufe of the Theatre Opii, have been imeal extremely beneficial in the cure of this truly Ohl* ' l ' and often deplorable malady. • FRENCH AND DUTCH JOURNALS. The former to the yth, and the latter to the isth infiant, have arrived. The intelligence furniflied by the French Official paper is very important. By a decree of Natocaolit. elated the ;d init. and infected in the Maim" of thet sth, so.oco men of the confaiption of the prefect year, are ordered to be immediately called out. This mea -1 fore is reprefented as a common military occurrence, from which no inferences in favour either of peace or war ought to be made. Why hots it been found no. catty then to accompany it with an explanation, the • effea of which will be the very reverie of what is sp• parently meant to be produced t What are the Powers of the Continent to look to, when they fee the 4 rength of the French army carried to the bight(' point, as it 4. avowedly will be by the incorporation of thefe fifty thoufand confcripts t Is there one of there Sovereigns who can repofe in fecurity for a week when he finds, that even in peace it is to be maintained within ten thoufand men of its full war eflabliihment t If one gigantic Power is to retain its firength and means of oppreffion and annoyance, while all the other States are called upon, as it were, to lay down their arms, not only their temporary fsfety, but their very ex , iftence, are at the mercy of that Power. The am biguous terms in which the peace of the Continent is alluded to, are of themfelves, independently of the movements of the French armies, fufficient to excite firong fufpicions that tranquillity is far from being reftored. The article expreffes " a hope that the affairs of the Continent are about to be fettled."— Surely, after having dilated peace to AO ria, figned a Treaty with Ruffia, and fecured the friendikip and alliance of PrufGa, this is a fubjea upon which 80. . might have given a more explicit affuranct to the Continent, than this equivocal declaration.— From his whole proceedings it is impollible to draw , another inference, but that his ambition, o Nuking the meat it feeds on," is without bounds r.r nr,ifore, and that he confidently looks to the entire fithjirga tion, with the escepti ,, n perhaps of Rullia, of every Power upon the Continent of Europe. The plan of the New Conflitution for Germany, or, as it is to be henceforth called, .. The League of the Rhine," has been officially notified by BACKS', the French Minifter to the Diet of Ratiflyrn. It is curious to hear Bow AAAAA e affigning as reafons for putting an end to the ancient code, the very events and calamities which he has been fo mental in producing.
