A splendid tete will be gi,en that day. and the Park, the Garden, and the Grand Cascade are to be illuminated. AMSTERDAM, MARCH 16. His Excellency the Prince of St. Angelo, Envoy, Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of his Majesty the King of Naples, has obtained leave of absence for six months. CONSTANTINOPLE, JANUARY r.o. The Porte had prepared to raise 100,000 fresh troops in this Spring, to reinforce the army of the Grand Visier, but within these few days orders have been sent on all si.ies, to raise the troops immediately, in consequence of the Russians having again advanced in force against Silistria add Giurgo. It is believed that Suaskier Pelikan Aga will succeed, as Comman der in Chief, the Grand Visier, who is dangerously ill. Very strict orders have also been given for col lecting victuals for the army. SIMIAN, FEBRUARY 5. The hope which was e itertained that amicable means would be sufficient to reclaim the insurgents, has been frustrated, Mesenko Stolek having marched back to the fortified peninsula of Boritscb; at the head of 1500, and absolutely refuses to acknowledge the superior authority of Czerni George and of .he Senate. —lt is generally supposed that he listens to the insi . nuations and suggestions of a certain Foreign Minister. PETERSBURGH, FEB. 17. The Court Gazette of this day contains a very re markable Ukase relative to the Finances. The fol lo-wing are the principal articles : . 4 , The bank-notes are declared a national debt.— AU the territorial riches of the empire are considered as mortgaged for the bank-notes.—The numbers of these notes ate not to be augmented.—lii order to reimburse the national debt, a loan shall be opened, the conditions of which shall be fixed by a particular deate.—As th e e cessation of the issuing of bank notes will diminish the resources of the Crown, the most rigid economy has beet introduced into all the branches of Administration. The expences for the current year have been reduced more than twenty 'millions, and will be yet further reduced by the sus pension of many works. Now, in order to meet the necessary expences of Government, it is requisite to adopt measures to bring back the imports to the same real value they were of previous to the discredit of the bank-notes. To this end the poll-tae shall be two rubles, besides, each peasant shall pay, in addition to the la nd tax already existing, an extraordinary tax of three rubles in Governments of the Ist class, two and 1 a half in those of the 2d, and two in the th ird. Citi zens subject to the poll tax, shall pay five rubles.— Countrymen keeping open shops in town, shall pay from 25 to 100 rubles. The impost upon capital in trade shall be augmented one half per cent. Salt, which the Ciown sold at 40 kepeks the pound, is to be a ruble. Each pood of copper shall pay to the Crown anew duty of 3 rubles. At the Custom-houses the rix dollar shall be valued at 4 rubles. The other dis positions are relative to the augmentation on stamps." • VIENNA, MARCH 4. The Arch-Duchess Maria Louisa received on the 24th the sacrament, at the chapel in the Castle. Not withstanding the unfavourableness of the weather, the Empress, who is god-mother to that Princess, with the Emperor, assisted at the ceremony. Mlacn 6.—We feel already the fortunate effects of the late temporal edict on the finances. Our course of exchange improves from day to day, from hour to hour. Foreigners who saw this capital three months ago would hardly know it now, so very different is its aspect. Peace being secured for ever and cemented by the august alliance, enables Government to apply itself without intermission to such labours as tend t• promote the prosperity and welfare of the subjects. Money returns into circulation ; trade resumes its for mer activity, and the wounds inflicted by the war will soon be closed foi ever. The mortgage imposed on all tha property of the clergy places immense means at the disposal of Government, and we entertain the most sanguine hope, that our bank notes will speedily regain their primitive value. MILAN, MARCH 6. The Senate met to-day to hear read the Message of his Imperial Highness the Prince Viceroy ; it is as follows : " SENATORS—A convention of marriage between his Majesty the Emperor and King, and the Arch duchess Maria Louisa, has been concluded, signed, and ratified. The Prince of Neufchatel has set out for Paris in quality of Ambassador Extraordinary from his Majesty, to repair to Vienna, and demand the hand of the Archduchess. We hasten to com municate tl you this important event, persuaded that you w i 1 learn it with a litely sentiment of gratitude. In contracting the marriage which we have announ ced to you, his Majesty has not only had for his end to secure to his people long years of peace and pros perity, but has likewise wished to take from the ex ternal enemies of the Continent all hope and mean; of rckindling the flame of war, Connections formed with such views, not only cannot but be most happy for the subjects of his Majesty, but they must be so for his Majesty himself. It is also, we are certain, the w:sh of the Senate and people of Italy. 46 EUGENE NAPOLEON: 2 After the reading of this Message, the Senate ap pointed a Con.mission of six Members, to draw up an answer to his Imperial Highness. HANOVER, MARCH S. The French and Westphalian Commissioners, charged with the solemn Acts relative to the cession of the Hanoverian dominions to the King of West phalia, are expected here to-day or to-morrow. Till the beginning of next year no alteration is to take place in the Administration of the Country. The French Authorities are to be dismissed, and that of the Dominicans alone is to be preserved• M • i algi puvy, CouncillAr of State, is to be charged with pro visional supreme direction in the quality of an Inten dint General, with the title of Minister of State, and to correspond directly with the King. Neither the conscription nor the duties on licences is to be intro.. tluced in this country before the first of next January. MUNICH, MARCH 6. The King arrived here last night ; her Majesty the Queen of Naples is every moment expected. Four hundred horses are ordered to be ready at every stage for the service of the Empress of France. Several regiments of French horse have received orders to pro ceed from their quarters in the country of Salzburg and the Inn quarter, to the road which leads from Brannaq to Augsburg, to escort her Highness. Lord CO LLINGWOOD was cruizing off Barcelona in 'the beginning of February, with 17 sail of the line and three frigates. Jn the early part of January a tremendous storm visited the coast of the island of Minorca, and was severely felt by some ships of war then upon that station. A Moorish ship of 22 guns was driven on the rocks, and sunk in the arsenal ; and a felucca, which had been driven across the hawse of the ALCESTE frigate, drifted on shore and Kent to pieces, and every soul on board perished. Three trantports were forced on shore and much injured.— An American brig was dismasted, and laid on her beam ends. The BULWARK, ALCESTE, and SPARTAN drifted, but fortunately brought up again. The , escape of the GRASHOPPER was almost miraculous ; she struck on the point of land S. W. of the arsenal, but a sea lifted her over it, and she suffered very lit tle damag e. The enemy's fleet in Toulon consisted of elevm sail of the line ; and positive information has been given to Lord COLLINGWOOD that it would hazard every thing to attempt the relief of Barcelona, where the French garrison was starving. The dis tress was similar in Fort Mont Juich, which cam.; mands the city. The Catalonians had totally cut off the communication with the country. Number and distribution of the British naval force in the Mediterranean : - - Ships of War off St. Sebastian's.—Ville de Paris, Hibernia, Royal Sovereign, Northumberland, Sultan, Tigre, Leviathan, York, Cumberland, Colossus, Warrior (coming home), Bombay, Centaur (leads the division), Warspite, Fame, Repulse, Victorious.

Wednesday the sale of live animals belonging to the Menagerie, at Exeter 'Change, commenced, amidst a numerous body of spectators. The Elephant which arrived a short time since, in the Lord Keith Indlaman, was disposed of by private contract. Two Lions were sent to the Tower, as the property of the Prince of BRUNSWICK, and the remainder of the sa vage collection remained to be purchased by the best bidder. A Lion and Lioness of majestic deportment were sold to a person named Miles, for 260 guineas. Both these animals were so tame, that a child might caress and play with them without danger. It was stated that they had been taken in a French prize, going as a present to Bonaparte. A Royal Bengal Tyger sold for 80 guineas, and many more scarce and beautiful quadrupeds produced large sums. The purchasers in general are show-men, who intend to exhibit their savage companions in country fairs. Bishop BURNET relates a curious circumstance re specting the Habeas Corpus Act.—" It was carried," says he, " by an odd artifice in the House of Lords. Lord GREY and Lord Noßßis were named to be the tellers. Lord Nomus being a man subject to vapours, was not at all times attentive to what he was doing: so a very fat Lord coming in, Lard GREY counted him for ten, as a jest at first, but seeing Lord Nonats had not observed it, he went on with this mis reckoning of ten ; so it was reported to the House, and declared that they who were for the Bill were the majority, though it indeed was on the other side; and, by this means, the Bill passed ".---BURNETT'S Hist. Ch. 11. p. 485. On Monday night some evil-minded persons set fire to the offices of the Rev. T. Jackson's cottage, near Parsons-town, in the King's County, Ireland, and in a short time the whole of them were con sumed, with two valuable horses. On Saturday night the house of Mr. Mackason, in Egham, was also broke open, and robbed of cash, Baak-notes, &c. to a very considerable amount, with which the robbers got clear off. BIRTHS.

This was an action of trespass, brought by the occupier of the Ship Tavern, Greenwich, for a tres pass in passing from the stairs leading from the river, through a covered passage under that house. The defendant pleaded, that he and all the public had a right of a way - through that passage ; and the question at issue was, whether it was a public way or not ? • The cause occupied nearly the lahole day, as 27 witnesses were called for the defendant, the eldest of whom was 92 years of age, and 25 of'thern were uni form in their testimony, that as long back.as the me-1 mory of any of them went, the,passage in question was -used by all the public. The Learned Judge said, this was the most profli gate action he'ever remembered to have tried.--Plain tiff nonsuited. BRUCE V. THE INHABITANTS OF THE LATH OF ST. AUGUSTINE. This action was of a singular nature, being the first of the kind ever brought. It was an action brought by an administrator against the Lath of St. Augus tine, to recover the sum of £lOO for the death of his relation, who was killed by some smugglers, in rescu ing their contraband goods. The action was founded on the statute of the 19th of Geo. 11. c. 34, which makes it felony for three or more people to assemble with fire arms to rescue or to assist in carrying away with contraband and smuggled goods. It then also goes on to enact, that if any officer of the revenue, or any other person shall be wounded or hurt in opposing the smugglers, the Lath Hundred or Division shall pay them their losses and expences ; and if any one be killed, the County or Division is to pay his Executor or Administrator £lOO. Mr. Serjeant t SHEPHARD stated, that this action was brought on that statute, and, he believed, it was the first action ever brought. The plaintiff was Admi nistrator to one -- Bruce, an officer of the Customs, who was killed under the following circumstances : The deceased was a seaman belonging to a ievenue cutter called the Asp. On the'2oth of July last the Asp, in company with the Nimble cutter, saw two smuggling gallies, which they chaced close into Deal,' and just as they came alongside, and took the ground, they were fired at by the smugglers on shore, and a ball striking Bruce in the breast he wceived a wound, of whiCh in a few minutes he died. This was the fact, and upon which the plaintiff's claim was foun ded. He understood his Learned Friends were to take some legal objection. The penalty was directed to be levied in the same manner as by the statute of Hue and Cry. By this latter statute notice was to by given to the County, and when an individual had been robbed it might be necessary, or hovi else could the County know the fact? but here, where there was an open resistance by force of arms, it would not be necessary to give any such notice. Thomas Goldfinch and Jeremiah Tile, two seamen belonging to the Asp and Nimble cutters, proved that, on the night of the 20th of July, they chaced two smuggling gallies on shore, near Deal. It was very dark, and they were fired at from the beach ...- they were then within low water mark, and the effect of the fire was to kill Bruce, who was shot in the breast, and died en board the boat before they could get him out. Mr. Vandersee, from the Exchequer Office, pro duced three rolls of the time of Edward the Third, of subsidies granted to that Prince, to shew that Deal, although one of the Cinque Ports, was wilin the Lath of St. Augustine. Mr. MARRYATT raised an objection, in point of law, that the .Cinque Ports were separate jurisdic tions, and were not within the general division of a Lath. A verdict was found for the plaintiff, subject to this reserved point of law. HIGH WATER AT LONDON BRIDGE TO-MORROW.

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY. THE Advantage the Public must always derive from regularly educated professional men directing almost exclusively their studies to one species of malady, was never more dearly demonstrated than by the unexampled success which has attended the administration of their new remedy, and the extraor dinary cures it has performed. For a long series of years Messrs. Cu eRIE and Co. Surgeons, formerly in his Majesty's service, have made the Venereal Disease the particular object of their investi gation, and are happy in having discovered a medicine superior to mercury, in the cure of that complaint ; it h suScient to observe, that the effects of this remedy are diametrically o pposite to those of mercury, for though it completely eradicates every vestige of the virus, in its most confirmed stages, yet it does not in the least injure the constitution ; on the contrary. it renovates the system in aU its natural functions, promotes appetite, and facilitates di gestion ; thus instead of reducing a strong and vigorous constitu tion to the frightful condition that mercury does, it not only pre serves that constitution in its primitive state,-but restores aweak and debilitated one to its natural strength and vigour. Number less instances are on recent record of the superior efficacy of this medicine, its inherent and specific virtues acting as a perpetual corrective to bodily debility, whether proceeding from an excess of conjugal or illicit pleasure, or from the more Insidious though not less destructive, indulgence of incautious youth of bo th sexes in a certain pernicious habit. Amidst the melancholy variety of disorders which are the consequence of this solitary vice, there are none more AUi cting than that distressing state of debility and de ficiency which prevents or embitters the matrimonial state; the unhappy sufferer broods over his misfortune, ashamed to ire,:kre lief, until he is reduced to such a state of weakness as to realer life oppressive. 'lso such persons it must be a consoling refiee tion to know, that they may now, by a new Infallible mode of treatment, he restored to that greatest of all humaublessings, a strong, manly and vigorous constitution. In all cases of debility, deficiency, from whatever cause arising, as well as in every species of venereal infection, Messrs. Currie and Co. may be consulted by patients of either sex with the greatest secrecy, and honour, at their house, No. 107, Hatton.. Garden. Patients in the country; describing the particulars of their complaints, by letter post paid, enclosing a Bank note, will have the necessary medicine and advice sent to any part of the kingdom.

Surgeons, being regularly educated hi every branch :of their profession (certificates of which from difi ferent hospitals, and testimonials from the most eminent Physla cians, they have to convince any inquirer), were induced to make the treatment of a few prevalent Diseases the object of their par• denier study, and continue to confine their attention to the cure of a Certain Disorder frequently contracted in a moment of ine- , briety, as also its cot.comitants, whether recent, or of long dun• don; which by their improved plan of treatment are speedily and effectually removed. They can affirm that they have been equally successful in renovating the System, when deranged either by in. , temperance, long residence in warm climates, or a secret destruc tive habit which reduces its votaries to a ni;serable state of debilit y.

TO THditis TAYLOR, ESQ. • SIR No. 9, New Bridge-street, London CoNSIDER it but an act of justice due to the merits of your LEAKE's PATENT PII.LS, to communicate to you the following Cure, which has fecently been performed by them. An acquaintance of mine, who by the breaking out o f an old Venereal Complaint (attended by a complication of disorders arising therefrom) was reduced almost to a skeleton, and altho' be had the best medical advice which could be obtained, and tried a variety of patent medicines, nothing could be procured which seemed to suit his case, or do him any service ; he remained in a most reduced and pitiable situation for two years, unable to fol.. low his profession, and scarcely able to walk or even to stand on his legs; in fact, fio one who knew him ever supposed it possible for him to recover. He was advised at last to try your Leake's Pills—he did so, adhering strictly to the directions given with them—he had not taken more than two boxes, before he found an alteration for the better—this encouraged him to proceed and by taking a few boxes more he found his appetite and strength gradually return, and is now as healthy and stout as my man, know. You are welcome, Sir, to refer any person to me for a confirmation of the above account, if it should be doubted. I ant Sir, your obedient humble servant, THOMAS PURDAY.

GILBERT's VEGETABLE ANTISCOR BUTIC DROPS, in bottles at 225. and a smaller size a 4s. 6d.—The variety of diseases that prevail at this stfassn of the year, generally originating front impurities of the blood, a vitia ted stomach, or obstructed perspiration, it is with the fullest con -fidonc • of success that wet; trenuously recommend this unrivalled medicitte to public notice, as being a certain preventative and cure for numerous diseases, particularly the land and sea scurvy. cancers, king's evil, ulcerated sore legs, running wounds in any part of the body, leprosy, eruptions after the small-pox or mea sles, inflammation in the eyes, St. Anthony's fire, rheumatism and rheumatic gout, slow, nervous, and intermitting fevers, acid all the ong train of disorders which attend the scurvy internally. 'Fite following remarkable instance of the wonderful effects of the VEGETABLE ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS, In those dreadful diseases termed the Scrophula, was attested before Sir John Wilmot Prideaux, Bart. chief of his Maesty's Jut tices of Peace for the County.of Devon, 22d of December, 1805 : I, Solomon Acning, of Colyton, in the said County, Stone mason, was, about five years ago, seized with a violent pain in my side and head; soon after, a humour broke`in my neck, near the coUar-borle, and became a desperate Wound ; in about three weeks after three more wounds broke out below my ear, and a large gathering appeared on the other side of my neck, which cauaed suck extreme pain I could not gain any rest night or day. then took a bottle of Dr. Gilbert's Vegetable Antiscor butic Drops, soon after those wounds healed, and the humour abated, but not persevering in the medicine a sufficient time, a violent swelling affected one of my legs, and my knee became se stiff and enlarged, the faculty deemed it a white swelling, and treated it as such fur a considerable time. I now became a per: feet cripple, soon after my afflictions were greatly increased by a powerful inflammatory humour, which settled in my eyes and nearly deprived me of sight ; my whole frame now became bur thened with this disease; the crutches which I had long used were no longer of use, I became confined to my bed. The last advice I had from my surgeon was to get myself removed to one of the London Infirmaries, this I did not approve ot; it appea . red . doubtless whether 1 could undertake the journey. At my wife .s request I put myself a second time under a course of Dr. Gilber t s Vegetable Antiscorbutic Drops, resolving to give them a fair trial ; the wonderful effects produced a favourable alteration, and by the time I had taken "even or eight bottles, I became a sound titan, every wound heaied,my leg and knee returned to their for mer size and strength, having for several months not felt the least symptom of the aforesaid complaints, and I enjoy a very good state of health.
