VIENNA, JUNE The organization of the battalions of reserve, or dered by the Patent of the 12th May, is proceeding in all the provinces of the monarchy, except Hun-1 gary.

PARIS, JULY 5. The Paris Papers, and the journals published in the cruntrics which are occupied by this French ar mies, indulge in the most inccmsideratc expressions. It is a stock jobbing trick to spread alarm and unea- s'Oess. A Berlin Gazette has had the effrontery to assert, that Marshal Davoust had granted a reward of 100 francs to Russian deserters. This General, as it was very natural, was much shocked at this observation, wh•ch would indicate a lie ot conduct contraiy to the sentiments by which n the two countfies are ani- mated. Other papers have given the, particulars of some supposed calamities which have fallen upon Moldavia and Wallachia, and of the excesses said to have been committed by the Russian-troops. At the very moment that Russia reiterates her pro hibitions against English merchandise, other Papers mention that they are received at Riga and CrenFtadt. On the other hand, it is said, that colonial pro duce, protected by English convoys, are received at Trieste. In short, they have had the impudence to assert that American vessels, whatever the nature of their cargoes was, have been admitted in the Spanish ports. All these reports are equally false. The Editors should he more careful not to sanction such unfounded rumours.—lifoniteur. . JULY 7.—At Vienna the following Proclamation has been affixed in the public places by the order, and in the name of his Majesty His Majesty has not heard without the greatest displeasure, that the evil-disposed have endeavoured, with all their might, to spread disquieting reports concerning the insecurity of the external peace and apprehension of a new war. These ieports are merely the result of an insatiablespirit of gambling. His Majesty is in The most amicable relations with all the powers of Europe ; but he will not suffer the public peace to be interrupted, without punishment, by the avarice of a few persons, and has, in conse. qwence; ordered that search should be made for the authors and elFseminators of such false reports; having sufficient confidence in the body of rieraants, to trust that they will inform a Special Crunin:s!.ion, which has been established for that pure e, all they are acquainted with concerning the circulators of the current reports, and the artifices they employ."
