We are extremely concerned to find that the damage done to the (hipping on the Irifh coati in the late gales h is been immenfe. From an apprehenfion that Admiral CORNWALLIS nu) , have been driven from his nation off Brett by the florm, and the French fleet in couferptcnce have put to fca, our correfpondent informs us that regulations had been adopted at Dublin for putting all carriages and holies into motion for the public fervice wi,h all palible expedition, °mild accounts be received of t he enemy having reached the coat. A:cordi:l7; to the accounts that have reached us, the pr iucipal dArnage on the trifh Coaft happened on the 17th inft. A few Dutch Papers arrived yellerday, Come of them of the ISth intl. containing extras from the Paris Journals to the 14th. The Flits r CONSUL had not left Paris un the 33th. The Ruffian Ambaffador Count Maacclr had applied for his eaffports. Vile fubjiin the only articles worthy of notice found in tittle papers, with Come farther extraets from the Hamburgh Mail of yefterday. Among the latter, the Pal i., letter of the ift, and the Ham burgh letter of the 33. h inftant, are particularly worthy of notice. ALGIERS, Ocr. 3.—A Fortugnefe Envoy arrived here about a month ago, to negeciate the ranfom of 370 of his countrymen, and to take at the fame time the opportunity of offering propolitions of peace.— .He could not, however, come to an agreement with the Bey as to the price, and therefore returned with the Chips of war which brought him. COPENHAGEN, Nov. 26.—The trade of Lubeck is Rill very flonrifning. In the courfe of the &ft eight days of this month, 6o vefels have failed fir the Baltic. AVOSSURG Hi Dec. i.—Several failures, and even fume fraudulent bankruptcies, have taken place at Vienna, and other parts of the Auflrian monarchy. Thefe failures, which are confiderable, are attributed to different fpeculations, particularly in colonial pro. du&ions. &me perfons, however, fay, that the new regulations of the Cuflom-houfe, which render fmug. gling impracticable, have partly occafioned the bank- ruptcies. VICUNA, Nov. 30.—1 t is arongly reported here, that our Court is about to form a clofer alliance with Ruffia. This, however, is certain, that a number of couriers ariive here from Peterfburgh, and an equal number are dilpatched to that city. This alliance appears to be rendered neccffary by the difcontents which have ',Token out in the Turkiat provinces, and which threaten to extend their inflwence to Rutlia and Auflria. An afrembly of the States, it is expected, will loon take place in pretence of the Emperor. It is laid, that the King of SWEDEN will, in his tour through Germany, pay a vifit to this city. Pears, Dec. 13—The day before yefterday, his Excellency Count Maacorr had a conference with our Milliner for Foreign Affairs, relative to his recal, in As i:ich he took the opportunity of afking for his panports. His departure is therefore every moment espeeled to talc place. Locust BONAraarl intends to travel with his wife in Germany, and to pafs tome time at Betlin. A certain Court has made here prefling reprefen. tations, to procure orders fur the French troops in Hanover to retire (erne leagues from the borders of the Elbe, as Ptuilia fullers greatly from the blockade of that river. In Ee:g;um, tepoo rudders are made, and 5000 ancho:s ate al!nork fintlhed, to be fcnt to the coall. It i 5 reported, that the decoration of 'Members of the Legion of Honour is to cnnliß is a Ilar, which is found in the family arms of BONAPARTE. MA-4INE Orrtcr..—Tbe Braave privateer, of St. captured and brought into Namt the Eng hig brig Nte.rina, of 45 tons burthen. ?RIME LkTTE.I3. PAR I s,Dr.c. I.—Among other rumours and r i ins for conquering England, it is now reported, in the Confular codes, that both the armaments at Breit and in Oat Tel are dertined.to invade Ireland, and clabilh its independence, Ihnuld they be able to ef cape the BT i!ith cruizers ; and that the centre of the Army of England is nor to make any attempt until a French army, augmented with difaffeZied La, can attack Engizt,d from Ireland at tlt: fame time it is affai:ed from France. The armaments in )1, 1 11,i,t g are, however, dellined, if pr (lade, to make a diverron nn the eallern coot of England, to create cool - Winn, and to preveat reinforcements be im lent to Irchold. Sik:h are Lclieved to be the :'a-noes in Om vA" our u:ater namp::'gn, fn ace the FIRST CONSUL, after his late return from the c oat, has cnnfulted CARNOT, MARIGNY, and other able s.n t ,ineers, and naval Oflicer‘, who have con vinced biro of the imp, aaica!,,lity Of conquering EnOand but from Ireland, in the prefent fituatiun of our navy. What is certain is, that the fubjuga tion of England is not fpokcn of by BONArAvrt him filf with the f,me confidence as fix months ago; and the vehemence of the abufe in the Mortiterir againft your King and country, convinces all impartial men, that the nasr COhSOL has, lot the prefent, no other means to revenge his (lir - appointment, and to flew the inefficacious confidency of his hatred. Count MARKOSr intended to return to his country by way of England, and demanded permiffion to embark at Dunkirk or Calais, but was refilled.— Since he is no longer here in any official capacity, he cannot take a ftep without being followed by the (pies of the police ; and TALLEYRAND has even de clared to the Ruffian Charge d'Affaires, Mr. d'Oss earL, that the FIRST CoNsuL would hear with plea lure the departure of Count Mac KOFF, without forc ing him to have recourfe to his hlinifter of Police, and enforce the laws of the Republic againit foreigners, whole flay is not agreeable, or who are fufpeaed. It is Paid that the courier, whom M. d'Orasarn fent yoflerday to Sr. Pereaburgh, carried the particulars of TALLEYRAND'S demand and threat. In the mean time, every thing is ready for Count MARKOSS'S de parture : he yetterday took leave of atl the Members of the foreign diplomatic Corps, who, to-day, have returned him his vifit of adieu. It is, however, thought here, that the Count weds a courier from St. Peterfburgh, before he leaves Paris, and that his remaining yet here is by order of his fovereign, who, many fuppofe, has not yet given up his philanthropic intent, to reflore peace between England and France. A congrefs at Bruffels is fpoken of, where all dia. greements between the different States of Europe are to be finally fettled. Warlike preparations continue here, however, with unabated fury, in the midi} of an unufual fcarcity of money, dearoefs of provifions, and general aifcontent. HAMBURGII, DEC. 13.—.. We have at laft, with great difficulty, made up the IA of the four millions, extorted from us by the armed French banditti, or rather by their reprefentative, General BERTHIIt. This money, in our prefent difirefsful fituation, caufes more complaints than the payment of any former de- mand ; becaufe our Senate is furced to impofe new taxes, when the ftagnation, if not annihilation of our trade, makes it impoffible for many of our citizens to difcharge their former ones. We pay now ten times more impolls than we did ten years ago, and this augmentation is entirely owing to the different funs which France has plundered from our neutral city fince 1795. You can hardly believe it when I tell you, that General BERTHIER declared, in full Se nate, and defired it to be taken down in writing, " that the Film. Consul. was determined never to make a peace with England (if he thould not fucceed in conquering it) before the Kiriu ofGISAT BRITAIN has promifed to repay both the prefent and any future loans France finds neceirary to raife during itroccu pation of Hanover." An official note from the French Minilter REINHARD has fince repeated this declaration. You have, no doubt, heard of the late difagree.' ment between Auflria and Bavaria, concerning Ober haus, a large fortified village, claimed alike by both States, as appertaining to their refpeßive indemni ties. By the reprefcntations of the Ruffian Minifter at Munich, the Elator was forced to renounce, for the prefent, his pretenfions. It is, however, believed every where in Germany, that neither France nor Pruffia will Puffer, without refentment, the threats of Auftria, and the fuhmiffion of Bavaria, particula r ly as the latter has aged in confequence of the determi nations of the Courts of St. Cloud and Berlin. In Ruffia, depend upon it. the politics are entirely agairdl France, and General HEDOUVILLI was ready to depart, when, on the lath of November, he re ceived a courier, to remain in RuiEa until further orders. This has tattled new fpeculations, and hopes, that negociajons for peace bet wt.en France and Eng land may continue to be carried on through the me diation of Rallis. GuNsauec, Dec. s.—The Eleaor Palatine of Ba• varia had, is is well known, received, as a part of his Indemnifications, the Imperial Prelacy of Kay e rfheim. The E►treaoe, however, conceived the Territorial Sovereignty of the Village of Oberhaufen, near Weiffenhnrn,' and not far from Ulm, which vil• lage appertains to this Prelacy, to be vetted in him, as Margrave of BVRCAU ar.d accordingly lent an officer and Come foldiers to take poffeffion of it. In confequence of this, 300 Infantry, and too Light Houle, were, in the courfe of IA month, detached from the Bavarian Gariifnn of Ulm to Qberhaufen, to difpnliefs the Ala ian Garrifnn ; but the Officer who commanded it declared, that he would Conner be cut off with his few troops to the left man, than aban-. don the roll amgned to him. He, jinwever, propofed, that 7.n Officer ar.d fix men nn each fide fhould con• jointly occupy ti.e village of Oberhaufen, till their re. fpeftive CcAnts litould have adjufled the difpute. The propofal was accepted, and the Bavarian Troops re turned to leaving the Officcr and fie men, ac cording to the agrce:ment. • The day bcimc )ellerday an order arrived from General Cu A I- rst cC, cuninandii.g in the Tyrol, for th•: Govtrn•nent her•Y to I:rovide quarters and protti (ions for twenty companies of the regiffttnt of the Eleaotal Prince of Wurtemberg (late Bender) and twelve companies of Tyrolefe chaffeurs, v.ho were on their mach to take poEirion of the village of Oberliaufeli, an.l repel force by force, in cafe the Attftrian G.:rrifor. in Ulm fhould make an att.ick on thzm. But an hour agn an Eflafette arrived from the Aullrian Officer in Oberhaufen, with an account that the Bavarians had voluntarily withdrawn from Ulm.
