THE NATIONAL REGISTEIz 7SS FRANCE. Pa. is Papers to the Bth arrived yesterday morning. They contain a Proclamation from Prince Repnin, announcing the deivery of all Saxony to Prussia. These papers contain, with much exultation, an assertion that all Ame:ica is united against us. There area variety of reports on the subject of the parti tions, but all seems conjecture. However, now that Prussia has obtained possession of Saxony, in COIICqUeIICC of a treaty between Russia and Prussia, to which ustlia and England acceded, we may expect to see what the remaining part of this plan of partition will be, et e long, fully develored. `VIENNA, Nov. t I.—The Austrian Commandant iu Italy, Count ji,,i; eg arde, h a s r ; :kcn measures to rcpress desertion, for some time past, has increased in an alarmiog degree amongst the troops composing the army of the ci rier:/at kingdom of Italy, a deser tion which lots cvntribaied prodigiously to sirflii:lhen the ranks of the army of King .loitehim, and has furnished a great number of gooft li ars and veteran soldiers. who prelcr serring router colours which less expose theta to quilling !kir country. lt, homelier, cannot be eon ceidtd that our Court is in an embarrassing situation in tegard to Joachim.—On the one hand, it is too neatly allied by blood to the ancient House of Naples and Sicily, not to listen to its just demands; and On the other, it has controcted engagenn nts, and commenced a Convention with King ioachini, nude war in Italy, in concert with him, against linonapaite, and is consiviently engaged towards him. 1 sides, it could not but he impolitic and very di:n genius to renew the war in Italy, and yet this is what must be ex- Fc ,- ted if an attempt ••Itoold• be mode to face Joaciiiin to quit a throne of 'Able!) lie inis been recognised the lawful possessor by solemn treaties: tar it is very certain that arms alone would be able to do thi4. DnEsnr.tN, Nov. 11.—The following is a copy of the Proclama tion addressed to the Sitons by Prince Itepriin 4" : — The Snpreme Administration of the kingdom of Saxony having been placed in the hands of the Kiog of Prussia in virtue of a Co::. ni.ntion between Russia and Prus•aa, uiul to v.hirli Austria and Faighmd have acceded, and the solemn delivery el the Gellei al Go serionent having, thi , day been made hy Inc to their Fxrelleneics the Baron N'ot: itt.ck and Major General the Baron Von Gandy, hi! the Faxon officers a!!il iiihabitants are informed, that they must addie.s el,cinel‘es to the new General Glvernmeot, and give to it the same e of:fide-nee, and evince the same spirit of order and subordination flinch have distinguished them during my administration.

Prince Di REPNIN, Governor General. 6; DresiTen. Nov. 8." On. the 13th Nov. we urged the impolicv of holding out zrr inducement to France to go to war, a disposition which Nve contended the cession of Flanders to 1:161lond would pro duce. We also endeavoured to point out t"e danger in hich Europe was placed, by adopting too contrary pt inci pis lra limine; the one denying any aggiandizement to France the other allowing it to all the Allies. Either to the status ante helium adherence should have been urged, or a principle of aggrandizement should have teen allowed, that would have prevented France taking the precedence, the defending the weak against the power ful. • _ _ Of the opportunity thus offered her, she is making good we, and the Editor of The Times, speaking of the contents of the last French papers, and happening to be in a mode rate humour observes, with great good sense, that we ought to be aware " how we make over to •ur great rival, France, - -. l~t~+~ 1:-:-:~: the moral-power which our character has hitbert• given to us in Europe. If there should come a time, when Saxony,* Switzerland, Italy, Poland, should all at once cry out for an avenger; on whom would they turn their eyes, but on the. Power that has resisted and protested against the extinction of their political existence? In such a protest, the interests of France and England are identical.". * Whos.e King was, Recording to the unprincipled writer of Ote Times on Thursday, justly dethroned lions the imbecility of his ia tellect. The advices from Spain by the French mails, state that at" Cadiz the forced loan has raised about a million of dollars ; and Government has returned to the contributors receipts, but without security. In Madrid the arrests are continued, and the punishment of some of the• unfortunate persons is extremely severe. The brother of the Editor of a Cadiz paper that was offensive to the Court, has been doomed to confinement for eight years, merely on account of his relation. ship with the conductor. The voice, however, of the So.' vercigns at Vienna, we ti ust, will be listened to by King Ferdinand. Count Labrador,--his Minister at Vienna, ha written home, recommending a relaxation of those areas urea of severity which the. Government have pursued. Among the injurious results to Spain from the pe niciens measures of the dark minds that now unfortunately direct the councils of that country, the loss of her rich colonies is an event not only to be expectecf,,but which has already in part actually taken place, by the unanimous declaration of the in dependence of Mexico. The Ncw Yurk misrule Adver-. user of the 20th ult. says —" A vessel from Vera Cruz is ill the river (Ncw Orleans), bringing the important information, that as soon as the refusal of Ferdinand to accept the Con. stitution made by the Cortes was known in the kingdom of Mexico, all partieswere unanimous; the Royalists joined the.. Patriots; the new Viceroy was deposed, and the independence of that delightful country proclaimed at Mexico, Vera Cruz, and all other parts of that province." A dvices from Gibralter to the 3d inst. state that the progress of the fever is arrested. Deaths are less frequent, and few, bad cases remain in the hospital. The weather is changing towards winter; every day is colder than the preceding one, and there is no reason to doubt but that a fortnight will hardly have passed before our port will be opened. Application has been made at Paris to the Duke of lington to obtain a pass through the blockade of the ports of America, for a French ship which has been some time in readiness to take her departure from Havre•de-Grace. This application has been ineffectual: and the cause of itr, ill sue : cess may be easily explained, as there are about 300,French Officers who have taken their passage by this vessel, and who . 1 , had applied to Mr. Cratifutd, the Republican Minister at Paris, to know whether they could acquire rank in the army of the United States. We have before us the speech of th• King of Sicily on opening the Sicilian Parliament on the t2d of October. The only point in it of any interest to an English reader, is that where his Majesty says—" In the course of the last recess two loans were contracted under the guarantee of Great Bri tain. 1 trust you will speedily approve of these loans, and provide the means of satisfying them : this is one of the first and most sacred duties of justice, and I will also say of gra titude towards a faithful and magnanimous nation, to whose alliance and generous assistance we owe a great part of the good which we enjoy, and to whom we owe the more valua ble pledge of what we have good reason to hope we shall, shortly cnjoy.'l I
