TIIE NATIONAL REGLSTER. AVG. eO. OF , teen. KILLED—Cipt. Sibley, 15th N. I.; Capt. Blackitey and !Auto. Moir B.ot. 2'24 Native Infantry. Captain M'Do‘s al is mentioned as severely wounded — also Lieuts. Points and Piekerin ; the first dangerously, and the latter severely—Capt. Mott, dangerously, but doing well. The cause of the failure of this affair was being misled by a pretended deserter called Konckanaddee Sewaiee.— The accounts are up to the Ist of January. A Mail from Flanders and two Dutch Mails arrived Yesterday. It i , generally believed in the Netherlands that the first a nd second line af French fortresses will be occupied by the Allied troops. Landau and Bitsch, it is said, will he restored to Germany. Landau still displays the tri-co loured flag. The fortress of CLar'eniont, which commands Civet and the Meuse at that polnt. has offered to capitulate. And the B. us , els Papers observe, that it would secure that Fart of the Belgic frontier. The accounts from Vienna assert, that the depots for Cie Austrian army are to be broken up, and tho maga zines •o!d, the Austean army being to be paid, fed, and clothed, at the expence of France. Nothing can he more just and proper. Monday, Paris Papers were received to Friday week. The i:iso!ent proceetlin:ts of the mob at the Thuilleries have cf-ased and the King is no longer insulted or annoyed hy the cries of the seditious. This change is attributed to the superimendance of the Police of' the Thuilb ries by Fouche.— An ordinance has been promulgated for organising a new a;:n. It is dated on the 16th July. There are to be 86 lejons of infantry, the number of French Departments, acid each legion is to take the name of a Department: There are besides to be forty regiments of cavalry, and eight regi :lleitis of foot artillery. The whole will form a military force ti about 9.1 , 0,000 men. The preamble of the ordinance .1‘; - s, that the King " wishes to constitute a military force, antl to place it hereafter in harmony with the liberal disposi tions of our constitutional charter, by establishing in the army a discipline powerful enough to guarantee successes in mar, and to maintain invariably our institutions, if new factions should again threaten to disturb the State."—Mar- AA Macdonald issued a proclamation on taking the com mand of the army of the Loire, in which he does not men tion the disbanding of the tromps, 'but says he shall extend their cantonments. Brune's 'suicide and Ney's arrest. has been confirmed in the Official Gazette. The latter was taken up in the department of Lot, and sent to Aurillue, from whence it is supposed he has been tiansferred in irons to Paris. if he Paris papers of Sunday last, arrived on Wednesday. In one of these it is stated, that " a Declaration of the Allies will appear in a few days, of a nature to reconcile all dif ferences." And it is added, that a " definitive arrangement will be made known on the anniversary of the King's birth day, agreeably to which, the greater part of the Allied troops will quit France, leaving only a sufficient forte to insure tranquillity." At the present juncture, when every article :s carefully revised by persons appointed by the Government, this statement possesses a considerable degree of probability, Among the reports from Paris, which do not seem to rest tin any sufficient authority, it is said that, on one occasion, 4 Luui3 was proceeding :o tins's, a ruibu prezented to him a 530 petition; and as his Majesty was opening the paper, to ex• amine its contents, the person who presented it mace an at. tempt to stab him, but was prevented from accomplishing his purpose by the surrounding goat ds. Provisions have risen during the last fortnight, in Paris double the price they were purchased for previous to that period. German Papers to the 7th inst. reached town on Monday. A note from the French Minister in Switzerland, has been de. livered to the Diet, requesting them not to permit the re sidence in that country of the Duchess or Countess of St. Len, and other persons who have fled from France. There is also a note from the Ministers of the Allied Powell; in Switzerland, respecting the disputes in the Canton of Lower Underwald.—Greit alarm continued to prevail at Basle. in consegnelice of the conduct of the Governor of flunioguen. who still persisted in defending that fortre's, and threatening I llasle with bombardment. The Clench provinces, in the vicinity of Switzerland, are described to be in the greatest state of agitation. and to be very hostile to the Allies. A Mail from ilarnhurgh arrived on Monday. There ap pears no relaxation of military preparation on the part of any of the Allied Powers. Austr:a has ordered a new levy of 80,000; Prussia, besides a new army of 80,000 men, has called out the second division of the Landwehr; numerous additional Russian corps are on their march; and the Grand Duke of Baden has just concluded a treaty with this country, by which lie engages to keep in the field an army of 16.000 men. The King of Saxony has conferred upon the Duke of Wellington his family Order of " the Crown of Rue." The Grand Duke of Baden has sent to the same Itlasti ions Per sonage his Order of " fidelity" of the first class, a re i.mp a .. vied with a gold snuffbox, enriched with diamonds of great value.— The celebrated Gentz, who held something like the office of Secretary-General or Recorder to the Congress at Vienna, has been sent for to execute the same fun( tioos at Paris. Madame Murat has hired a grand palace in the vicinity of Vienna. The Russians have sent the Comman ders of some of Bonaparte's free corps to Siberia, to strike terror in the rest. Brussels Papers to the 17th, and Frankfort gazettes to the 12th, have arrived.—Phillipeville has surrendered to the Prussians. and we hope speedily to see the whole of the frontier fortresses in the possession of the allies. An article from Vienna not only states that the Allied armies will be kept for a considerable time in France, but that several of the provinces of that country are to be given up It is stated by a Gentleman who has just arrived from Paris, which he left on Sunday, that the disturbances had not yet subsided, and that patroles of English cavalry were night and day riding through the different streets of that city. It seems that a principle highly favourable to the German manufactures has been adopted, namely, to purchase as far as is possible all that is necessary for the army, except pro. visions, in Germany, and to pay fcr it with French ni 'tier. in order by this means to bring back to Germany the im mense sums which France has been drawing from it for se) many years past. Government, we are told, has it it contemplation to abo. lisp the whole of the Assessed Taxes , a nd to substitute an • impost of Seven per cent. on Property, as an ample otovision in their stead for the future exketices of the State.
