TIM NATIONAL 13EGISTEll at the old Offices for BAIA-notes, eitithiished at Vienna, Prague,. Bruno, Troppau, Lintz, (3r-ttz, Klagtniurtn, " Bills of Exchange, tled.Lreki of Vicuna value, and that only for the whole of the interior, shall be rtce:ved as such, at their nominal value, by all collectors of rani in the hereditary States of Hungary, Bohemia, Gaiiicia, and Austria, as well as in the commercial transactions of individuals. " Bills of Exchange lost, or worn out and illegible, are not to be replaced; they are only to be ex chanyed for others :when the essential part of their impression, though ragged, is not ef faced by wear. :alie pasting tog e ther of pieces of a torn bill is prohibited ; shall not be received by the collectors, or In private trade. ig Whoever shall counterfeit a Bill of Exchange shall be pit isished with severity, and shall suffer the punishment prescribed in the penal code, and in the regulation of the 11th of February, 1806. Whoever shall give information of any one guilty of this Crime, shall receive as high a reward, according to circum stances, as 10,000 florins. The Vienna Gazette announces, that the EMPE ROR has ordered to be sent to the Mint all the Court plate, which, prior to the Proclamation of the 19th of December, 1809, was in the Imperial sideboard, in the parochial Church of the Palace, and in the . Imperial country-houses, with the single exception of a small quantity of plate necessary for the jour neys of the Court. This order will be executed gradually, says the Gazette, in proportion as dishes of indispensible necessity shall be fabricated of more ignoble metals to replace those of silver. By this measure the State gains a sum of 93,376 florins, 36 kreutzers, of sterling money. Notwithstanding these new arrangements and sa crifices, the Austrian financiers have not improved the credit of their paper, which fell considerably after they had been publicly announced. A Circular of the Regency of Lower Austria announces a considerable reduction of the Reserve, and of the Landwehr. The regiments of German Infantry are reduced to 1,000 men,, part of whom will always be on furlough. There will be this year 1,600 men of reserve, and in 1812, 2,500 for each regiment of the line, The reserve will be only donsidered as a nursery of soldiers, and will bear the name of the troops of cninpletement. The Land wehr will be reduced from 110,000 to 50,000 men. The obligation of service extends to the age of 45. The period of assembling and training is reduced. HFAMANSTADT, it Tz.v 11.—By letters tioni Bucharest of the sth, we are informed that an envoy named HAMET E rreNDI, has arrived there from the Turkish head-quarterq, Aecon.pa, :lied by the interpreter Apostolaky. He was received with great distinction. After this pelliminary, it is probable tier eations will be opened. The Reis El PE NM, who is in the Turkish camp, is probably charged with the negociatiou. The Ganet sloop of war is arrived here from Carunna, with letters and rapers to the 30th ult. The letters by this conveyance mention, that 1000 French, escorting 800 Spaniards and some English prisoners, had been attacked (the place is not men tioned) by a superi nr body of Spanish troops, who : succeeded in liberating the whole of the prisoners, and taking about half of the euefay. A letter from Comma, of the 17th, states, that the French had evacuatel the province of Asturias on the 1441 ult. and taken the road to Castile. Before they departed, they. levied a heavy contri bution on the inhabitants of Oviedo. Gen.,PonmEn is said to have arrived at Oviedo on, the 17sh inst. with 3000 Spanish troops. The first measure adopted by the General was to arrest the Audiencia, who wefe constitued under the sanction of the ene my. They were thrown into confinement. The French have also retired from Astorga, and move in the direction of Castile. We give in another part of our Paper the Expo.si of the State of the French Empire for this year, communicated as usual to the Legislative Body, We had prepared some observations upon its cop. tents, the appearance of which the press of more important intelligence since arrived compels us to delay. _ . BUONAPARTE is said to have laid an embargo en all American vessels with cargoes in the French ports, in order that, in case of a rupture, they may not fall into our hands. • By letters from Heligoland ve learn, that the Ex-King of SWEDEN has taken his departure from that island at the special invitation of the King of DRNMARIC ; that he had consented to take up his abode, for the present, and reside in privacy, at a town called Gottorp, a short distance from Slcs wick or Schleswig ! To make this arraiw'rnept, dispatches were sent by a flag of truce from Ton ningen to the unfortunate Monarch.in Heligoland. A few days after his MMESTY applied for, - and was furnished with, an armed British vessel to conduct him to Tonningen, or some other Danish port, whence he. was to proceed to Gottorp. A letter from Liverpool, of the 16th, gives the following information from America Two British ships entered St. Andrew's Sound, in the United States, instead of Amelia Island, and were immediately taken pos s ession of by two American gun-brigs. If what the American Papers state be true, C;e neral MIRANDA is still doomed to be the victim of perverse fortune and of untoward circumstances.— The Papei s which last arrived say, that this gal lant and philanthropic. General, after having been very graciously received by the inhabitants, con tinued to evince the most ardent zeal for their welfare ; but he was zealous over much. The peo ple suspected the motives of his zeal, and they came to the conclusion, that because he was zealous in their cause, he must be, forsooth, ambitious —that he only wanted to prevail upon them to raise him to the dignity of GOVERNOR of the Provinces ! Howsoever uncharitable or unjust this conclusion respecting MIRANDA'S motives may be deemed, and we deem it both uncharitable and unjust in the highest degree, it unfortunately had but too ,much effect. He was, say the American Journals, suddenly deprived of the command which had pre viously been entrused to him. Negotiations for a peace betty, en the Turks and Russians are said to have been again renewed.
