JAN. 4.--The 1011nWing is the Con • vention co-xliided at Patis, relative to the indem• 'lilies of the GRAND DUKE of TUscAN Y CONVENTION:.. 1-Its Maierly the Emperor, King of Hungary and ildicmia, having fignified that he could not crnifider the stir At tick of the Treaty of Lutieville, as far as it relates to his Royal Highnefs the Arch duke nt;iinaild, Grand I)uke of Tufeany, as flif ficiently fulfilled by the Plan of Indeninitits agreed to by the Deputation of the Empire ; and as the Full Conful of the French Republic, on his part, has nothing more at heart than to contribute to the attire and perk& fulfilment of that Treaty, it has been rtfolyed, with the content of his Ma jefly the Emperor of all die Rulas, to agree on cfrtain nl'iifications to be introduced into the Plan accepted by the Deputation of the Empire, to render it conformable to the principles of the Treaty of Luneyille, and fuels as may receive the Ratifications of the Emperor and the Empire. For this purpofe, the high ContraEling Powers have appointed their refpeflive Plenipotentiaries, namely, his Majefty the Emperor, King of fittn gary and Bohemia, the Sieur John Philip Count Cobentzel ; and the Firil Conful of the Ft elicit Republic, Citizen Tokpli Bonaparte, who having exchanged their full powers, have agreed on the following Articles : Art. 1.

VIP NNA, Die. W.—Several journals have rib lifhed, under the head of Vienna, that his Majeffy the Estrteoe had juft fet at liberty, in purfuance to the Treaty of Luneville, the Jacobins of Vienna, who were confined in the fortrefs of Mungatfeli. It is true that the greater number of thole State criminals, who had been tried together and kr:i rately, by the Judicial Authorities, and, according to t 1.,. calling laws, have recovered their liberty ; but I.r this favour they are folely indebted to the clemency and compalli:)n of the Monarch, who no linger cohfidetekl them as formidable enemies to the State. FRAN K TORT, JAN. tB.—The Princes of the Em• Aire are all bully employed in regulating the ad. tuin , firation of their bew poffellions. The Du Of WI RT met vc has lately ilfued an ordionnee r,, that effeelf. His Hilhrefs has divided hi. acqui• Minns into three baiiiss;eks called Ellwani...n, and Roomed. The chief town of the fit it is to Is:. the feat of their genct.iladminitild::on. The rumour ciraated from Paris ' of propi,:i• Lions tr ade by the En t4 l,ili Agcnt, Mr. hionitt, to the Court of Stritszaid, has been contradielld by Alp,toursab intbisAeJ is that 3ity.

" Several Gazettes, both French and German, have repeated after the Moniteur, the Official Journal of France, an article from Conftance, dated t 501 December, which concerns Mr. MOORE, Ertgliffi Gentleman, his flay, and his occupa tions at Contlance. The fats contained in that article being immediately conneted with this city, cannot he lo well afeertained any where clic as here. Of thefe facts the following only arc ftrialy true:—!ft, Mr. NIOORE has been in this city, but he left it the t sth December, conlequently ten days before the date of the laid article; zd, One Rocket went from Contlance to London ; 3d, 'l'he ci.de vant Baizzxy W4cr4 zit lodged at l'Aigle until he had hired a private heull ; 4th, Mr. MOORE lived here in the molt quiet manner. All the reft of the article is a dire& falfeliond : and it is diffi cult to conceive how any correlpondent could have ventured to furniffi the French Official Jour nal with an article in which there art more lies than lines. The Imperial Commandant of this cit y and the Direaors of the Police have thought thcmfelves hound in honour and in duty to make the prelim declaration." SrUTGARD, JAN 19.—Great preparations arc already made here for the Proclamation of his Serene Highnefs the Duke of Wititemberg, in his new capacity of Eleaor. The cc:oniony will moll probably take place in the month of March next. His (late cat riage is already built. - COBLENTZ, JAN. 20.—The Trittnnal of Appeal, for the four new Departments on the kit bank of the Rhine, was installed on the t3th at Treves : the ceremony was preceded by a high mats, cele brated by the Bifhop, and concluded by a ball and fplendid illumination. thin that ht provid two Prince-Bilhops and and for din future datati eefes Cull -be placed on t vista of the Auftriin 3.

ROTTERDAM, Jay. 25 —The fadden return of the holt, which, fur the prefent, excludes all hopes of a fredy opening of the navigation, has, conk qiiently, operated to keep' our market in the fame dull I ste as before. Several articles, among which gin may be reckoned, have no fixed prices Englilh coals indeed are getting extravagantly high, to the great emolument of the fpeculators in that article. Hides are now become dull. Sugar maintains and coffee flill continues advancing. There was a great buiile to-day at 'Change among our Stock Brokers, in the Refcriptions.— The Batavian Refcriptions payable after the pace were fold at 65/, to be delivered till Mart-h, with liberty to receive them at any time. In the 3 per cent. National Bonds, little wasdone of confequence. Som e fates in the French Funds took place. Am ST I" RDA M, JAN. 19.—TO•day die Dutch Funds were Heady. The Refcliptions payable after peace were even higher, and got up to 644, but on the clofe of the 'Change, fell again to 641; 3 per cent. Old National Bonds (laid at 48# ; and the New at 471. As the publication of the loan has not yet been iffued, it is thought that fume alteration will be made in the plan which has appeared in lime of our Papers. HAGUE, JAM. 24.—Our Government, aware of the importance of the herring fifhery to this coun try, are about to grant a premium for twelve years, rf Soo guilders, to the owners of each (hip fitted out for that fifhery : and, by way of additional encou ragement, zoo guilders extra will be granted for the &II of thole twelve years, in confederation of the immenfe lots fuflained by individuals concern ed in this filhery during the late war. The official flatement of the new loan has not yet been publifhcd. The (ketch fuffered to be in jetted in two or three of our papers was meant as an experiment to try the feelings of the people on this fubjed. Whatever the event c f this worn-out artifice may have been, it hems certain that Tome alterations are intended. Our funds fiiil continue looking upwards. Ba• to tan Racriptions were fold to day at 65e, to be delivered till March, within that period. A report in circulation lately, that the plan of the new loan was printing at the National Prefs, feems to be devoid of foundation ; and therefore it is to be foppofed that it is to be turned infide Hilt. This tArdinefs in the Government, in this refped, has now canted a fort of flagnai ion in the piirchafe of flocks : the prices, however, null maintain. The affair with the French relliefting the Batavia') Referiptioni payable aflcr peace, is not yet fettled ; it remains in the fame fituation as in the beginning of Lift week. The neceffary arrangements have now been fet• tied between our Government and the French Re public for keeping 3600 men, French troops, in this country, another year: in the courfe of which time our fate, as Raves or freemen, will, moil probably, be determined ; but we are certainly by no means fo near receiving the yoke as the Englifh Papers have rcprefented : nor, however de*raded, and fecretly divided among each other, is there any chance that fuch an ambitious (theme would fuc• teed ? for even the Orangifis, when fo fentibly touched, would doubtlefs make .t common Callli of it with their countrymen. What but for this have they been re-admitted to the public Councils, and to lucrative offices? No fptcies of tyranny could long controul us, if our domenic wounds were but. foundiy healed ; and this, perhaps, op prcilion would etrea fooner than any other thing. According to letter, tiom ire Admiral DE WrriT CR, dated Leghorn, December 29. the fquit• di on under his command was in a good (late. 'fire Daphne corvette, under the command of Captain Lieutenant GA Y M All 5. had arrived at Snip:la. Toe c , anitift of the Vatavian fquadron had given great tatisfaiftion in the Archipelago, where no more coif - airs were to be leen. The Vice Admiral intended to proceed to Toulon to get a I , 7;yiy t,l r.CZertties. tirair.- the com mand of Camsia oa, then at Gs nr.a, was to *;.. in : fqya.i rim at Toulon.

It is thought that the Elsßeth Toll will remain. As the Ruffian harbours in the Black Sea are about to be placed on a new footing„and are faid to be declared free ports, that articles of every kind may be imported duty free, his MAJKSTY has ap pointed the DUKE of Ric if ELIE tc, Lieutenant Ge neral in the Ruffian fervice, Direetor of thofe places, both in a military and commercial view. JAN IT A ItY 4.—On the 3oth oflaß month,at break . of day, a violent fire brokeout in the printing-office of the Royal Academy of Sciences, which, in con• feculence of the ilrong wind, and the vicinity of the Library and the Mlifeum of the Academy,. threatened to be attended with great devartation. Fortunately, however, it was extinguithed before it did much mifchief. fo that the upper part of the building only has fuffered. LONDON. WHINESDAY. FEBRUARY s.

It is afThrted with much confidence, and vrc are inclined to believe on pretty good grounds, that the French Amballador, General ANDItrOSSI,! through agents in the City, has ccntraaed with Britifh merchants for a large quantity of chipping, to convey French troops and Mores to St.Dnmingo. On this fubjea tw•o opinions are held. All thole who are not Wen-India Proprietors difappipve of anining the French in regaining St. Domingo ; all thole who are Proprietors zealnufly contend for giving them every aid.—They win) to live un der the Brian' Government rather than the French, bin they would prefer the French to the dominion of the Blacks. This may be good argument in Jamaica, but it is moll pernicious reafoning in London. If once our Colonial fubje&s are allowed to calculate the prudence of their allegiance, there is an end of our Colonial Empire. The Convention relative to the further indem nities of the DUKE of Moossi, and the GRAND Dolts of TUSCANY, was figned at Paris cn the 26th of December : it confiiis of eight articles— the DUKE of Moosms is to receive the diftriet of Ortenau, in Suabia, as well as the Brifgau ; and the Bithopricks of Trent and Erixen, are to be fe culatifed, and given to the Emputoit for the cef lion of the Ortenau. The GRAND DuICP of Tus caw r is to receive the Bilboprick of Eichfiadt.— The Aufirian troops are immediately to evacuate Palf.tu, which is to be given up to the Eitcroa of 13aystia ; but under condition that the fortifi cations of that city (hall remain as they are, and no new works be crated. The EMPEROR of GERMANY in return for the conditions obtained for the GRAND Dues, hinds himfelf to procure the content of the Empire to the arrangements concerted by the mediating Powers. TLe FIRST CONSUL engages to unite his influ ence with that of the EmPIROR of RUSSIA to pro cure for the GRAM) DUAL and his heirs the Elec toral Dignity. The Convention is to be ratified within so days, or fooner, if poflible. It is figned by Count Co. S VIZ EL, JOSE►H BUNAPARTE, and Count MIMEOS, thc Ruffian Mini(ler. It is reported upon the Continent that, betides this public Convention, fecret Articles have been entered into upon various other points. It is obferved, in confirmation of this opinion, that the new Convention trenches upon the arrange. ments made in favour of the ELECTOR of Bev*. Rte, without :aligning him any reparation what ever. It is laid, that Auflria has formerly agreed to the eredion of Tufcany into a King-, dour, to the extenfion of the French boundaries in Italy, to the annexation of Parma and Placen I tia, and to the interference of France in the affairs of Switzerland, though contrary to the Treaty of Luneville. It is certain at leafl that theft objelis have given rife to difetiffion i and it is probable that fome Convention will be concluded, to fandion and acknowledge what has been done. An ankle from Conflance of the ad January, contains a formal and fpitited contiadiaion of the article which appeared in the Ilfchiteur, refpeding Mr. MOORE : in all the important circumaances, the flatements of the Monitemr are in plain words uiferted to be lies. This cotaradinion is iffucd by the Imperial Commandant and the heads of the Police. The flatements in the Muniteirr of Mr. Montt having made propofals to the Court of Stutgard, arc likewife formally denied by autho rity in the Stutgard newfpapers.—Thus the French Govet merit and their Official Journal get the lie dircd from all the pa:ties implicated in their fyf tern of falfehood.

EtortmEnr.—A young Lady. highly celebra ted for her beauty, and of a very confiderable pro- perty, eloped on Monday with a Military Officer; but from fome inattention of the Lady, in leaving a letter in her apartments, (he was ',twined by her Guardian ; and the chaife breaking down on the road, the amorous pair were overtaken. A fevers conflid enfued between the young Gretna Adven turer and the Guardian. the Lady afElting her gallant paramour, who would doubtlefs have proved the vidor, and carried off his fair prize triumph, had not the interference of limit neigh bouring Conitables been demanded. This rein forcement decided the fate of the day, and the Captain was in the end obliged to abandon the conteft, and make the belt retreat he could; not. however, without hopes of better fuccefs on a more favourable occafion. Twelve of the prifoners to be tried next week for high treafon, have petitioned the Treafury for a fitfficient film of money to enable them to con. duCt their defence, as the number of witneffes to be fubpcenaed will be expenfive. The Treafury So. licitor, in anfwer, has informed them, that, on application to the Clerk of the Court for the Crown. fubprenas (hall be furnifhed them, free of expence. but that no money can be furnifhed them. Col. Defpard did not fign the memorial making ap plication. Yefterday afternoon a fine young man, about t 6 years of age, was drowned in a cow-keeper's pond, behind Portman-fquare. He was one of party of five lads, who were Hiding there, whet the ice gave way, and they were all ingulphed in mud and water. Four of them were, with much difficul:y, brought out alive, by the humane exer tions of a man and his fon, who live in that neigh bourhcod, ant to wh o (: cottage the fifth was taken in about an hour aftei wards. Here every exer tion was made by Mr. Daw, an eminent Surgeon in the New Road, but in vain; the vital fpark was for ever extinguillual ; and the lifzlefs youth was taken away in a coach to his afflieted parents is Old Bond-ftrect. A boat from the Paddington. canal, though late, was of great rife in recovering the drowned body. At one o'clock nn Tuefday morning, as John Townfend, jto s td Lavender, two of the Police Patrole, were palling through Crown-flreet, Saint Giles's, on their duty, they met two men with a very large ba,:. one of them having it on his back. and the other fupporting the end behind ; the of ficers flopped them, and defired to know what they had got in the bag, the men made no anfwer. but the one who was fupporting the bag immedi ately nabbed Townfend high up in the fide, nearly under the left arm, and then, with the other man. ranolr, and made their efcamleaving thejiag. La vender and the watchman carried him to his bldg. ings in the neighbouthool of Tottenham Court Road, when the difcharge of blond was fo conli• derahle, that it was feared by his friends he could furvive but a fhort time. Mr. Andrews. the fur geon, was direaly fent for, and on his examining the wound, he found the inflrnment (iuppofed to be a large knife) had entered the cavity of the cheß, and had pa&d Sate• the lungs, and his opi nion is, we are lorry to fay, a very unfavourable one. The hag contained upwards of too pair of men and women's (hoes, ilolen from a fhoernaker's Earl-Ilreet. Seven Pials, whole !bo g was Inds open the lame night.
