The Overseers of Customs may, conformably to the Bth article of the regulation of the 11th June, 1806, search the salt depots within their respective districts. Seizures cannot be made, unless there be at least fifty kilogrammes of salt, tor which the duty shall not be paid. These visits cannot he made in inhabited houses until after sun-rise and before sun set, nor without a municipal officer. In all cases, they are interdicted is Communes containing above 2000 persons. 33d. The enactments of the laws of the 24th of April, 1806, and all regulations relative to salt, con tinue in force, wherever they are not contradictory to the present rules._ M. LE BARON Louts also proposed the projet of a law on the subject of liquors, which establishes the system of permits, which documents are made neces sary on the transportation of all liquors from place to place—as wine, cider, or perry; transported from the dwelling of the farmer no duty is to be levied, except twenty.five centimes, the cost of the permit. The-sante exemption is granted to dealers, distillers, and others who wish to transport liquors from one to another. In other cases, a transport duty, conform- ably to the tariff annexed, is to be exacted. The ne- 1 cessary arrangements follow to prevent fraud on the revenue and loss to the proprietors. Contraventions of this law are punished by confiscations of the li quors seined, and a fine of from 200 to 600 francs. Duties are to be levied on the entry of liquors into towns, as well as on the sale by the dealers, and full regulations, which can be only interesting to the in habitants of France. The tariffs containing the amount of the duties to be paid have not arrived : in the city of Paris, the duty imposed; instead of the existing one, is on the hectolitre—of bottled wine ten francs, of wine in casks ten francs, of cider or perry four francs, of plain brandy (22 degrees and under) fifteen francs, of bottled brandy, cordials, &c. thirty francs., A duty of two francs per hectolitre is also Imposed on the brewing of strong beer, and one franc per hectolitre. on small beer. B , th for breweries and distilleries licenses are necessary, for which ten francs must be paid ; they must be renewed yearly. Per sons who brew for the csnsumption of their families' , are subject to the same taxes as professional brewers, except the expense of licenses. A battle of any spirits is taken at a litre, 100 of which make an hectolitre. MADSLID, SEPT. ts. We receive very favourable accounts from various parts of our colonies : we are assured that the insur gint army of Santa Fe, commanded by Islsveno, has been obliged to capitulate. The Icif.g continues to visit, wikhout previous no tice, and incerriie, the barracks auld public establish ments. A long decree of his Majesty restores to the Coun cil of Castile the inspection of the magazines of grain in the kingdom, one of its old functions. This tri bunal is now placed on exactly the same footing as at the commencement of the 17th century. There have been some military executions at Cadiz ; and it appears that these severities have produced the effect which the Captain-General expected : the public mind is now calm. They write from Barcelona, that that city is seri ously employed in restoring its rnanufactures, which had suffered severely from the war. PARISI SU' !TABER 26. The by a Decree of the 23d, had conferred the decorations of the Royal and Military Order of St. Louis on 213 Officers of the Marine. Several zealotis and eminent Surgeons have been honoured with similar distinctions—of these, many are in the Russian and Prussian services, individuals of that important profession who have attended French sick and wounded with diligence and fidelity. The statue of General Desseix is removing from the Place des Victoires. Its taste and execution were both so bad as long to have disgusted the public eye. The Duke of Angoulerne yesterday visited the Po lytechnic Schoch, and inspected the whole t f that establishment. Ile was received by the Cadets with that frankness, vivacity, and attachment which cha racterise their age. The King has granted the. decoration of the I.e. Rion of Honour to Doctors Wylie and Crichton, first Physicians of the Russian army, and to several miters of the principal medical men of the allied armies, in consideration of the services rendered by them to sick and wounded French soldiers. • The Kinl has permitted Mr. Philip Dormer Stan hope, a native of London, and resident at Paris, to establish his domicile in France, and there to enjoy all civil rights. It is thought that the Congress of Vienna will esta blish a uniformity of weights and measures in Ger many. Tt is now looked upon as certain that Augsburg usill again become a flee and independent city, and that st will be in future the seat of the supreme tribu nal of the Germanic empire. NureMberg also hopes to see its independence restored. It is not merely at Rome that the monastic orders are reviving in all their 'glory. The Capuchins of Florence have also resumed their holy habit and long beard, aad re-altered auk MOM of Mvatughi. rr - N ING S rAlt. LONDON. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1814..

The account of the celebration of the Eleventh .Anniversary of Ilaytian Independence, given in the Preceding p:sge, is far from being void of interest. The heart sickens at the prospect of the storm which 'threatens again to enslave them. May the GOD of Battles protect them, and break the chains of slavery throughout the earth ! Since yesterday, we have received Paris Papers of Monday and Tuesday last. The contents of Mon. day's Papers are in preceding columns—those of Tuesday's are subjoined. The proceedings of the Chamber of Deputies on Monday alone present any thing like interest with respect to the internal affairs of France. M. DUFOUftGERAIS proposed a law for en. couraging the iron and steel manufactories of France. In substance, it amounts to a prohibition of the im portation of manufactured iron from any. other coun try. The projet was ordered to he printed.—The debate on the law of `Naturalization was postponed to another sitting. A Petition was presented from a great number of Emji/oyes in the Revenue under BONAPARTE, who, since the restoration of several Departments to the rightful owners, had been taut of employment, and were literally starving.— The Reporter indeed stated, that many of them had committed suicide from desperation. The peti tion was remitted to the Minister of Finance, but Baron Louts, who was present, lamented that al. though the recommendation of the Chamber of De puties would doubtless strengthen the claims of the supplicants, he did not know where to find a fund out of which to afford them relief. We select a few articles of intelligence from vari ous parts of Europe : our Readers will of course take . the Angsburgh article with due caution : it is of French manufacture as usual. Great exertions are making by King JoActin! of Naples to secure his seat on the Throne : the Neapo litan Journal attempts to impress a belief that he pos sesses the affections of the soldiers and the people. We would doubt this assertion were it for no other reason than from its being so repeatedly served up to as by the same cooks, tape ad nauseam. PARIS, SEPTEMBER '27. General Bertrand, who accompanied Bonaparte to Elba, arrived at Rome on the 7th instant. It is said in Italy that the King of Naples will pro. ceed to Vienna. ' It is difficult to form an idea of the number of British who pass through Calais for the interior of France. All the Hotels are full ; many private houses have been converted into inns. CADIZ, AUGUST So. There has been a disturbance lire between the party of the Cones and that of the King. The latter were victorious. Eight of the ringleaders have been already executed, and a greater number are under sentence. We are assured that similar executions will take pl Ice at Madrid, and that the King is about to retire to Aranjuec. Those who are acquainted with the Spanish character are convinced that these mea sures of terror are ill calculated to restore tranquillity. We are astonished that the King does not follow the example of other Sovereigns who at this moment are distinguished by clemency and moderation. The discontent. increase every day ; and if the Govern. ment does not change its principles, it will not be surprising if the greatest part of the population should emigrate. NAPLES, SEPTEMBER 8. Yesterd.ty the King manoeuvred in the Champ-dc- Mars ten thousand men, composed of different corps of the Garde Royale, of the 4th and 10th of the line, of the 2d Leger, regiment of Sappers, 2d of Foot Artilk.ry, and the 2d and Si Cheavaux Legers. All these troops had a most magnificent appearance, and manoeuvred with a precision worthy .of the greatest eulogies. The last letters from Anconft, dated on the 22d instant, Worm us, that the evening before the Neapo litan army, which provisionally occupies three depart ments of the South of Italy, had celebrated the fete of the King with much magnificence. SCHAFfI - AUSEN, SEP I'. IS. The re.establishment of tranquillity in the Canton of Tessin has not been of long duration. It seems that Ole arrest of three Members of the Provisionary Government, which was ordered by the Swiss Corn. mi.ssary, M. de Sonnenberg, strongly agitated the inhabitants, and a violent insurrection burst forth.— M. Sonnenberg, and the little Council which he had restored to its functions, have been obliged to fly into the adjoining Canton of the Grisons. It is said that the Grison troops, which were in the Tessin Canton, have been disarmed and dismissed. The Diet proposing to chew energy in the present circumstances, has sent into the Tessin M. de Salis, President of one of the Gricon lines : orders for the march of a competent number of troops have also bees issued. Two Members of the Diet, Messrs. Ruttiman and Sydleer, have left Zurich for Schweitz, to prevail on the Authorities and principal inhabitants to adopt tilt Federal Act. They will fulfil il.e same missies 'in the district of the C.ui:on of Unterwvalde, called wht re the Federal Act has also been rejected. The Ministers of Russia, Austria, and England, have once more addressed a Note to the Diet, .to manifest the desire of seeing an end to the jealousies which still reign among several Cantons, and to ter minate the armaments which have been the confx quence of these misunderstandings. MADRID, SEPTEMBER 14. His Majesty, desirous of giving the brave defen ders of Saragossa a new pro - 4 of the value wlikh he attaches to the services which they rendered to their country'at the period of the seco-od siege of this city, has granted to all the Generals, Chiefs, Officers, and soldiers, who were present, a medal, bearing around a circular branch of laurel these words--6. The King to the Defenders of Saragossa." His Majesty has extended this favour to all those inhabitants of Sara gossa who gave proofs of bravery during the siege and contributed to the success of our arms. PARMA, SEPTEMBER is. New orders have been issued to accelerate the pre parations at the Garden Palace. It is said that a bridge will be built over the Pragma, to facilitate the communication. All the Parmesans who were employed in the army of Italy, have obtained leave or absence, and have returned to Parma, where they will be firmed according to their different ranks into the Re c liment of the Guards of Maria Louisa. AUGSBURGH, SEPTEMBER 20. Politicians who wish to account for every thing, and who have their eyes constantly fixed on the mo tions of Princes, Ambassadors, and the movements of armies, are sometimes embarrassed in their con jectures. It had been said, that the Empress of Russia would set ont on the 17th at the farthest from Munich, to proceed to Vienna : orders had even been given for her departure, but her Majesty will remain at the Royal Castle of Munich until a courier ar rives from his Majesty. The Archduke Palatine set out on the loth from Vienna, to proceed to Cracow, passing through Brunn, in Moravia, to meet the Em peror Alexander, but it is now said that the latter has received some very important dispatches, which will change his route. It seems that the restoration of the Kingdom of Poland causes some inquietude to Austria, and tins Power insists, before any thing takes place, upon knowing the intentions of the Court of St. Petershurgh on the subjct. Gallicia is now os,e of the richest . . provinces of the Austrian Monarchy : hence Austria watches all the motions of Russia and Prur.ia, and covers a part of Hungary. It will be difficult to find a sufficient compensation fur it. The King of Prussia is still in his own States, and the day of his 'departure is not yet fixed. The Ambassadors of the Allies arrive at Vienna but slowly. The Grand Duke of Baden was expected yester day at Munich. It is said that Prince Eugene l3eauharnois will ac company the King of Bavaria to the Congress. The King of Denmark passed through Leipsic on the 14th. The Prince of Benevente has passed through this place. Baron Stein, the Russian Minister, arrived on the 14th at Vienna. Many cities expect to be made imperial and free, and ours is among the number; we even hope that the Diet of the Empire will meet here. We know that the Hanoverians, English, and Dutch, form a considerable mass in the Low Coun tries, and reinforcements continually arrive, but we are ignorant of their designs. The Prussians are masters of Arlon, Luxembourg, and other strong places, where they have considerable bodies of troops; and what is singular is, that there is no enemy to fight with. The exchange of Vienna upon this city has risen a little: it is now 233. GHENT, SEPTENEER £2. Count De Lens, the Mayor of this city, has just made an appeal to the patriotism and good will of the inhabitants, to fiid m-ans for immediately placing the troops in barracks. The first of an establishment to lodge 5000 men, amounting to 250,000 ti rina, which is to be raised by a loan founded on the tax on furniture: No mention is made of the Congress. Colonel CHAPMAN arrived on Wednesday after noon, at Earl 13ATtwasT's o:tice, with Dispatches from the Duke of WELLINGTON. This Mieu ac companied his Grace the Doke of WELLINOTON hrough the Netherlands, and is said to be charged with a communication of some importance. We mentioned yi sterday that, in a private litter_ view between Mr. VANSITTART and the Govein.,r of the Bank, the former intimated that, as far as he could then foresee, Government would aot require during the present year either a new Loan or the funding of any Exchequer bilk At the same time the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHrQI.I:3 withed it might be understood, that upon this subject he dia not pledge himself. In consequence o f the above information having generally transpired yesterday, the funds felt the benefit of it ; and although the Stock Exchange was not open, private bargains were transacted, and immense quantities of 3 per cents. and omnium were purchased : the former rose to 67, and the latter to par. At the close of the day, they fell about per cent. below the above prices..—Consols opened this day at 66f, and at twelve o'clock were at 651. zvdirwa imrsLLioncr.

" RT.), 13th August, 1514. " Yesterday we retched this city, which is to be the quartets of the battalion during peace: the town sin ill, but plentiful ; and as many good ram:lies reside here, Ave hok forward to mull pLasanc and comfortable society ; not that I anticip.ete a long peace—the state of fermentati:-n in which the minds of the Spar,i:lrds arc s ems to /atomise but little quiet, for though the Portuguese Government shoald nrt take any active part in any disturbance which may arise in Spain, yet in that event we cannot enjoy much tranquillity. Tha Spaniards, from what I could observe, exhibit a kind of gloomy sullen dis content, which portends no good to FERNANDO— they openly accuse the King as the author of that order (of which he deniei any knowledge) for the execution of the gallant Baron d'EnoLes and several other Chiefs; and loudly ask, where is Cxvau.os ? where the Duke del INPANTADO t and the other great men that were known to the nation ? and who is the Duke de Swx,Caztos ?—no one knows. The tary are dissatisfied, and the Clergy grumble because though the greater part are restored, yet still some of their properties and privileges are kept from them. In short, during our march, I saw no one satisfied with the King. 44 We are still in the dark as to what may be the intention of the British Government with regard to the Anglo-Portuguese Officers ; we most anxiously look forward to Marshal &REWORD'S arrival, when something must be made known respecting our fate." Letters have reached us from 'l'eneriffe to the 20th ultimo, and it is with great satisfaction we state, that at length some security is given. to the trade in that quarter. Four British ships of war were cruizing in the immediate neighbourl:oud of the Canaries. The vintage. we are sorry to say, was not productive. Mr. MarnsoN's lr'use having been burned at Washington, it would be wise in him to take kdginv with his friend BONAPARTE, at Elba. CON! MODMIE ilsitsey—This fellow, when WASIf• INGTON would not re:mit him to commit piracy anti phutder on the English, abandoned his country, went to France, accepted a commis ion under the Direc tory, obtained the command of a squadeon of French frigates, and did actually capture several American vesials ! This is a pretty practical exemplification of the benefits of traosferabie allegiance.
