BRUSSELS AND FReINKFOAT PAPERS. BAYREUTH, SEP !'EMBER 10. Our Gazette announces, that not only the report is confirmed that the King of Saxony %sill go to the Cores at Vienna, but that it is even asserted he has been invited to do so.

The Prince Sovereign is returned to this city after kis tour in Flanders and Zealand, in the whole course of which he received the sincerest marks of the affc tion of the inhabitants. arrival of troops com ing from England, now landing at Ostend, still con tinues. It is affirmed that several regiments of Eng lish cavalry will soon u: rive in Flanders. On the other hand, we learn from the Banks of the Weier, that the Hanoverian troops destined for Belgium have just received orders to hasten their march. CORRY, AUGUST 25. A report is now in general circulation, that our islan3 will lie given to the order of Malta, or St. John of Jerusalem, which would thus be amply indemnified tor its tenitorial possessions. But as the order will hardly recover the whole of its landed revenues in the different kingdoms of Europe, we shall tilt be so for tunate as tic M iltese, saw the Government of the Order, and even its Members, spend in their island the money which they drew from foreign countries. LEFT BANK OF THE RHINE, SEPT. S. The enemies of Get many are busily disseminating various reports of misunderstandings between the Al lied Powers, and endeavour to undermine their har mony, or at least outwardly to di.ny it. They think in their wisd9m that a t:et is woven to ensnare the tin. suspicious Gcrntatts, but the result will be very dit ierent from their expectation ; the spirit which h.-.s so powerfully displayed itself is not yet law. The Ger snan nation, on the point of enjoying repose after such lung convulsions, might overwhelm with dreadful destruction those who should again provoke its pa tience to mortal combat. It has become acquainted . with what is due to its honour, and necessity hasshewn it also its rights. h will not suffer bad councils and wicked stratagems to convulse it again for years and drag it into an abyss of ruin. The Princes know that they can depend upon their people, and that when their real honour and the common interest are in ques tion, a single hint will suMce to assemble them all in the right place.

NUREMBERG, SEPTEMBER It. The Duchess of Oldenburgh and the Hereditary Princess of Saxe Weimar, have returned to Weimar, from the Baths of Egra. While there, they were visited by the Archduke Charles. These Princesses will soon proceed to Vienna. The Noblesse of the Germanic Empire mean to avail themselves of the Congress u► reclaim the rights of which they say they were unjustly despoiled when Bonaparte exercised his pernicious influence in Germany. They mean to send Deputies to Vienna, but their restoration seems difficult. Their pc.ssessions have been pat titioned these twelve years, among the most powerful Princes of the Empire. Besides, the people must now have Sovereigns that can protect them ; such petty portions of Sovereignties cannot enter into the political balance of Europe. 1 \ ZURICH, SEPTEMBER 10.- According to a plan presented to the Diet, the ca pitulation for the service of France v►ill consist of 11,90 men, forming four marching regiments of three battalions each, and a regiment of guard# - , The subalterns and privates arc to be better pard than they were in 17,92.

The fate of the provinces situated between the Rhine, the Meuse, and the Moselle, appears to be de cided. The Journals which are published here under the influence of Prussia, baldly assert that we shall become subjects of the Prussian Monarchy. The fol. lowing arc some details on this subject ; Prussia, like all the Allied Powers, ought not only to be restored to the power she enjoyed before the wars of 1805 and 1807, but also to possess all the dis tricts which can make the bulwark ef northern Ger many. Prussia lost by the Peace of Tilsit, provinces containing five millions of inhabitants. • In this mass, Prussian Poland, called then &al. them Prussia, reckoned 2,700,000 inhabitants. This important province will not return under the Prussian sceptre ; i: will, at least to a very great extent, be bi corporated with the new kingdom ol Poland, the for, minion of which is insured by the promise of the Ems peror Alexander. But to indemnify Prussia, the pose session of the kingdom of Saxony is promised to her, with the .exception of some strips of Lusatia, which, being necessary to form the military boundary of Bo hemia, will be ceded to Austria, and of the circle of Thuringia, which, with the country of Fulda, will be given to the Duke of S..::c-Weimar, to Won. nify him for his eventual hereditary rights, Saxony, after these reductions, will have only one million seven hundred thousand inhabitants—but it is an acquisition of t:.e greatest value to-Prussia, since she will acquire at once Silesia, the Marches, ;nd the country of M igcicbourg. Besides, the inhabitants, protestants in religion, and Gerinans by birth, will be much more attached to the PI ossian monarchy than the Poles could ever have been, separated as they are from the Prussians by the difference of language. of manners, and of woiallip. Prussia will form from Memel to Leipsic, and from Magdebourg to Kissel, a sitvle mass of contiguous teintory, covered on the side of France by a stronE lineof fortresses. Beyond this central territory, Prussia will again possess several small principalities, such as Munster, Cleves, Marck, &c. but as the King of Ba varia cannot be deprived of the provinces -f Ampach and Bareuth,-iaclused in his States, Prussia will be indemnified by the two Duchies of Berg and Juliers, formerly belonging to Bavaria. All these possessions in Westphalia will not be joined together without the incorporation of the an cient Electorate of Cologne, a long strip which se parates the Duchy of Berg from that of Juliers. But since, will aU these acquisitions, Prussia will not be restored to the degree of numerical strength which she possessed in 1805, she Must also acquire the Du chits of Limbourg and of Luxembourg, with Aix la-Chapelle, and that pan of the Electorate of Treves which is situated on the north of the Moselle. All these countries, from Embden to Coblentz, and from Paderborn to the gates of Lie g e, will form a conti guous mass of more than two minions of inhabitants, and will cover the whole of Lower Germany. The interior organization, both cbil and religious, of this country, is already commenced. We know that his Majesty the King of Prussia has directed a celebrated scholar to submit to I"th the plan of a university, to be established at Boni:, or at Coblentz. It appears certain that all these points are agreed upon by the other Allied Powers—but two articles remain, upon which they are not unanimous—the one is, the exclusive occupation of Mayence by Prussian troops—the other, the acquisition of the late Swedish Pomerania, which Prussia has, it is said, purchased of the King of Deosnark by a secret treaty. NAPLES, AUGUST 29, 31INIVTAY Ot IPORRIGN AFFAIRS, In consequence of the deolaratien by which his Majesty acknowledged that he was at peace with all powers, the undersigned Ministet of Foreign Affairs is authorised to declare that all foreign flags, includ ing thi• Sicilian flag, shall be admitted into the ports 01 Naples, and shall be treated with all the respect ''clue to friendly nations. Wherever any Power shall refuse to admit into its ports Neapolitan ships, sailing under the national Rag, the ships of that Power shall be equally excluded from the Neapolitan ports, and cannot be admitted under number flag. IIIjNISTRY Or GINIMAL POLK& It is not without surprise that the Government has been informed by letters from CivitaNeechia and Leghorn, that some individuals calling themselves officers, employed in the service of his Majesty, the King of Naples, sad decorated with his Royal order, have announced themselves as envoys from the Court Naples to the isle ot Elba. Although nobody can be deceived as to the object of this miserable itrata. gem s , the undersigned thinks it steCessary to 4e c i are , that these intriguers do not belong to the kingdom of Naples—that they are enkttoesu to it—andtUt they have sem bees chargt4 with any mission to the isle of Elba. All the Local Authorities are requested to arrest every individual whe shall state that be is charged with a similar mission.—Arfa i tztan PARIS. SEPTEMBER 19.

The Nuremleg Gazette of the 12th announces that 9.000 men of the principality of Orange Nassau are setting out for Holland. The Nassau Gazelle gives the treaty of service, observing that the Prince is Sovereign of both countries, and that the same rela tion sdhists between them as baween Prussia and Brandenburg. Germany would be ill protected if there were not fortresses in the Low Countries s but Holland wants men for her navigation, which causes her to take Germans and Swiss auto her set vice."-- A Public Journal protests loudly against this sort of Conventions. _ _ _ We are assured that Mrs. Sit!dons, Mr. Kern!)le, and some other English actors now in Paris, mean t; give some English. representations. Some of the English Journalists continue to rebuke us with a very magisterial air. All that we can say to them of the correctness of our news, and the au. thenticity of our correspondence, will not convert them. They are a wilfnecied people. They obsti nately maintain, that these news are manufactured in Paris ; and as a proof of it, they say they do not quote our authorities. Must we then tell them, that, be !sides the Journals of Southern Germany, we have also manuscript correspondence, without which it is almost impossible to edite a good Journal ?.--Do they wish that we should carry our complaisance so tar as to name to them our correspondents? In truth, these gentlemen require a little too much, ORDINANCES OF THE KING. The idea of separating sexes and ages in prisons, and of proportioning the rigour of detention and the severity of treatment to the nature of offences, is un doubtedly most happy. and humanity cannot fail to applaud it : but the project of reforming criminals. of correcting their evil thoughts, of mending their vicious habits, and of impressing them with the desire of a better morality and conduct; this project, we say, is intLitely better : it can only arise in a very experienced mind, and a generous and tender heart ; and those who have studied the first experiments— who have followed the details—and who have con ceived the poss:bility 'and the design of repeating them, and of naturali.ing them ill other climates, assuieily possess the same qualities, and are entitled to the :Me praises. The English, and particularly the Americans, have made, in this respect, attempts worthy of admiration, and which are one of the imp piest effects of the perfection of the social art. The work of M. the Duke de Liancourt (now Duke de 1. Rochefoucault) describes the methods which have been employed in the linked States to restore to morality the hardened offenders who generally oc cupy prisons, and to introduce icsensibly into their souls the seeds of honesty and virtue. That generous patriot, who devoted himself in his travels to the study of wise institutions and useful practices, with a view to enrich his country with them, alter having communicated to France the experiments arid pro ceedings of Jenner in vaccination, oiler having curt tributed to excite an enthusiasm for this discovery, which he has more than any other i erson contributed to spread, has also had the idea Os trying in France the power of habit and regulation over the passions of men, and of discovering to what extent treatments wisely combined can soften the most refractory and violent dispositions ; he was welt 4.sured of being seconded in such an undertaking by the wise and he nevoient Minister, who combiues in his great depart ment the establishments hog% of charity and of pri- sons, and was equally sure of -sreing project so useiul to mankigd sanctioned and protected by a wise and humane Monarch, who condescends to regard even the lowest classes, and to whom nothing that affects humanity is a stranger. The first attempts shall be made on a class of in, dividnals who may be considered as most susceptible of the impressions of a well-digested nietliod, the organization whereof entourages the hope of a more speedy success. - The following Ordinance will better exhibit Li what spirit these attempts should be Directed. and tLe advantages which have induced the permission of them ; , ' " Loon, by the Grace of Gorr, King of France and Navarre, &c. di Wishing to establish in our prisms A regulation, which, proper to correct the vicious habits of crimi nals condemned to irons by the sentence of tribunals, prepares them by order, labour. and moral and reli gious instructions, to return peaceful and useful citizens to society, when they recover their liberty; and wishing to insure the success of chat general establishment which we intend, by a trial which leaves in future no uncertainty as to the details of the administration of those houses, we have decreed as follows ; ART.
