' ZUTPHEN, DECEMBER 2.1. .Matters at Deventer still remain in the same.state. The trench have burnt 60 houses and two Lillis without the town. A person who left that place on .the 23d, reports that they already begin to be in want 'of firewood. The gartison is estimated at 1100 men. The Burghers suffer gre.itly, for as soon as the Com tiandant thinks he stands in need of money, he taxes the inhabitants at pleasure, and they are obliged to appply htai 11.4di .it immediately.—We expect that tlieye unfortunatp inhabitants will speedily be released from this tyranny. ito,sMALltt, DECEMBER so.

The same evening the !UsSlims and Cossacks entered here at Rosmalin, as likewise into Orthen.„ and spread themselves about the whole district, where they have since received .a great addition of strength.

The neighbouring peasants are all at- Ink themselves. They were very fortunate last Tues. Vey; halting shot several of a sallying party, made in officer and some - privates prisoners, and likewise taken two field-pieces; on this occasion one Cossack was killed and me peasants wounded. It is for want of artillery that Deventer and Koe. terden are not yet taken. About two thousand Rus sian troops arrived two days ago at Almelo, who. marched towards Deventer, and it was reported they were to - be yesterday followed by an equal number.— . These have their arms and baggage with them, but no artillery, which. is expected very shortly. TONNINGEN, LACEMbER 16.

FONT ANES, whose Speech -lei iiia Conxervativa Senate made such a conspicuous figure in our co. intrins of yesterday, was one of the heroes who figured! in the French Revolution. He was known as a poer;, and a man of letters before that period, and wits one of those self-elected cOnstitutionmongers who etera :nally pestered the Jacobin founders of the Napoleon 'Dynasty with itrgielt and contre.pnietr, until' they, called in the guillotine to alleviate the cares of Go. vernment. FONTANES had . the misfortune to focur the displeasure of- ROBESPIkRIt4 and was actuay i guillotined IT proxy! The prison in Which he was confined contained another FONTANIP this man was a footman, and could neither read nor write: he had been imptisoned for crimes not of a political nature, and either by mistake, or more probably by a ruse itoncerted between the teal FONTANtt, and his jailor , this miserable being was dragged before the Revolu. tioriary Tribunal, and in a few hours executed as FONTA NIS the poet and philosopher I - The death of RONRSPIERRE set himat liberty, but in 1797 he was again subjected to the suspicion of the Directory, which was then under the controul of BoNAPARTE, and ordeted to be transported to Cay enne. He contrived to escape to'Hamburgh, where he edited a political Journal, and in 1799 he found his way to London. He mixed with the best society in the Metropolis, but was so miserably poor that he literally subsisted by begging from the Members of the British Government, and the higher class of Emigris, were particularly liberal of their fa. , yours. In return for this kindness he undertook, in, concert with 4uctini BONARARTZ (over whom he pretended to have unbounded influence), to restore the BOURNONE. This was after Wards discovered to be a trick to swindle the British Government out of a large sum of money, which FONTANZS requested as a retaining fee for his services. In 1799, he addressed complimentary epistles to Lours XVIII. then at Mittau (whom he called his beloved Sovereign) to Suweaftow, for his successes against the Repthlicins in Italy—to the Emperor PAUL, for his vigorot&s,resistance against the french, and finally, iri November of the same year, he ad.' dressed a letter tOtONAPARTE, complimenting him on his return from Egypt to save Europe! In 1500 he' l was made private Secretary to LUCIEN BONAPARTE, and is said to h*ve written all his Speeches. In the same year be wrote a parallel between C2ESAR, CROMWELL, sad BONAPARTE, in which he proposed to mike the latter Consul for lift. The mild andi modest BONAPARTE testified his displeasure at this act of presumption by puLiicey disthlssing FuNTANES from his brother's employment, but by secretly giving him a pension of 20,000 livres. He has since proved himself to be a most useful servant. He is BONA PARTE'S chief orator on all emergencies. We have to-day given some further extracts from the French Papers received yesterday. But before we proceed to notice them, we have to correct two typographical errors in our columns of yesterday, of some importance.—The passage in BONAPARTE'S Speech. commenting 44 meantime Beam, Alsace, and Franche Compte, are invaded," ought to run thus : u aseritirste Beam, Alsace, Franche Compte and Bra haat, are invaded! ) The stile and composition of the article from the Journal de Paris of 2Sth December, cannot fail to ar rest the attention of our Readers. The French are told, that their situation in no respect resembles the ordinary situation of a people threatened by the am bition of its neighbours.—Their Ruler knows well what his treatment of every State has merited, and 7; -, 71 - "T".. -- .

Wherefore this anxiety to keep up the spirits of the Parisians, it "there was not something rotten in the State ? The official docureeets respecting Switzerland are now out of date—the Swiss have joined the Allies, and it is of rniuor importanee, to learn in what way they cheated CAULINODURT and BONAPARTE. I. THE ARMY. This morning the remainder 9f the Volunteers who ve enlisted but of the various regiments of Nlilitii %to the Regulars, left Town for Ramsgate and Mar sate, from whence they are to embark for their let pective Regiments now in Holland. • 1 . -1: 11 Saturday the 78th Regiment embarked it Abet.' seen, for actual service in Holland. The Whole of the O ffi cers and Privates belongini to the Buckinghamshire Regiment of Militia ha foltinteeredfstlicolland, and the quota allowed bi law will proceed in a few days fir embarkation. a They will be accompanied by their Noble Comman der, the MARQUIS, in their intended services. .. About 19• transports,, with 2000 -cavalry of the King's Germ a n Legion on board, have arrived at \Villiamstadt since our last letter, and have there been diqembarked. At the same time arrived also the ,friendship transport at Rotterdam, with 180 Dutch Officers, forming a portion of the prisoners, nativ4s of these provinces, that were in Engtend. Wednesday se'nnight the 2cl battalion of the-gal iant 42d Regiment marched from Inverness for Aber deen, where they are .to replace the 78th Regiment, ordered on foreign service. '• • , The whale Officers and men of the /Nairnshire Lo cal Militia have offered to do duty in any part of the United Kingdom where their services may be deemed necessat y by Governments Colonel MilßrN, with the detachments of .the Royals and 89th. Regiment under his commend, landed at Quebec oh the fld ult. without a ,tangle man on the sick report.. The men. remain at Quebec —the officers proceed immediately to join their regi ments at Kingston. VoLuNxreattro,--The 2.1 West York Regiment of Militia, quartered at Haslar Barracks, has evinced its usual spirit for the service of the coun)ry. On all former occasions this Regiment has furnished its quota to the Line, and in compliance t 7 the present system upwards of four hundred men (with a peo portion of Officers, Major YARBUItGIi, two Captains, five Lieutenants, and three Ensigns), non-commis sioned Officers and drummers, for the regular Atmy and extended Militia Service. A Morning Paper, of this day, contains the, fol lowing article : 46 There was a difference of opinion as to the plan of operations after the battle of Leipsic. The Empe ror of AUSTRIA advised the division of the armies into great columns, one of which should proceed to Italy, the other should penetrate through Holland. The CROWN PRINCE was anxious to be allowed to advance at once to the Scheldt and seize all the fortresses; in chiding Antwerp. Neither of these plans were gene rally. acceptable to the Allies, upon which the CROWN PRINCE took the route back again, for objects Wore immediately his own. The plan of the Emperor of RUSSIA, King of PRUSSIA, and ENGLAND, was CO cross the Rhine, in the way in which it has been, at length, so happily accomplished, for the Emperor of AUSTRIA generously gave up his own plan, which might be thought more personally advantageous to himselt, and adopted that of his colleagues. This acquiescence was known in England before Lord CASTLEREAGII left town. • But anew difficulty had occurred by the unforeseen Revolution in HoilAnd, and by the people of that country conferring on the Prince of OttXt4ot the title of Sovereign Prince of the Netherlands, for on the basis of the terms of peace which the Allies had offered. to BONAPARTE, they had certainly pro posed to give Holland CO LOUIS BONAPARTE. What is likely to be the result of the operations now that they. are again in movement ? They are not, according to all appearances, iutoxicated by success, and therefore we presume to think, they will gain their object. We sta‘ed yesterday that MURAT had arrived at Bologna, and was negotiating with both parties. Rumour says, tha( he has gained his end.— He has made terms with the Allies. It is said, that his demand was to have the Papal territories added to his own Neapolitan kingdom. This was peremp torily refused. But terms were offered him which, it 4• ill, be has aseepte.i.

At a quarter before eight o'clock, after taking an affec tionate leave of all present, he stepped into his new travelling carriage, accompanied by Major STEIGER, 'and drove off on his way to Deal. He was followed by another new travelling carriage, in which were four attendants. His Royal Highness breakfasted at Rochester, at eleven o'clock; and thence proceeded to Deal, where he was engaged to dine with Admi ral FOLEY.

[he same was observed at the Chapel Royal, St. James's Pa lace, by the Sovereign making an offering of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, in iteitetion of the wise men of the East going to make eirtiiler offerings at the birth of our Saviour. 1 113 c offering used to be made by the KIWI in writ*, previous to his afflict ing illness, since which it Nut been made by the Lord Chamberlain, Or his depiitt.

Dean.:—The yeomen of the guard attended, the same as if Royalty had been present.. Twea.ersi CAKES.—Yesterday, these annual offer ings to Old Time made a very handspine, seasonable appearance. Ourhonest Chroniclers, the pastry-cooks, took care to record on the icy tops, the most ttmai kable events* of the late year. Bonaparte hunted down, and tamed, is not a bad subject for the co mic muse. He was represented in many characters of a ludicrous cast, and happy would society have been, had the Ruler of France never assumed a more dangerous appearance than on this occasion.— A shop in Fleet-street otfercd for sale a cake said to be a.ton in weight. The principal ingredients were 1200 eggs, and 3.50 pounds weight of currants. The top was, covered by a navy ot ships, an army of troops, and animals of every species, almost as nu merous as Noah's menagerie. We must not forget, among the various objects in most of the shops, the busts of the King, Queen, and Prince Regent.— The cakes denominated Regency Cakes, were all that fancy could raise to please the eye or gratify the palate. The Prince appeared on horseback. Over his head the feathers and sceptre, and underneath the inscription 6 , England's Anchor." Lord Wellington and the Spanish cause was exalted by the figures tar'. tannia and Liberty holding the Spanish Bag over the French. The Genius of Britain .was also seen protecting Holland, represented by a Dutchman, exclaiming Oranje 13oven." In short, the general display was patriotic and highly interesting to those who ate at tached to our old customs and seasonable merriment. At the ceremony of drawing names and titles mal.y were doubtless surprised, disappointed, and delighteu. Bonaparte of course drew an inference from the past, that the wings of the French Eagles most be clipt ; and the Atli- s dryer nearer the Peace they are so anxious to give to 'suffering Europe. Baddele)'s twelfth cake, pursuant to his will, was given in the Green Room of Drury-lane Theatre, and the Ladies and Gentleured acted thrir part., to great advantage in devouring the donation.
