We thick it ought to be made public, as an instance of the causes of the rise and hill of Stutes.

The troops on their march for Spain are forwarded on their route in waggons, each dis trict they pass through being obliged to furnish a certain number of carriages and horses. A journey which it is supposed His Majesty will shortly undertake, is the subject of much conversa tion in this capital. It is rumoured that His Ma jesty intends to repair to Weimar, anti that the Rus- SINIII Emperor is also expected there. It is reported dist General St. Cyr goes to take the command of a corps of the army in Spain. General Vandamme will succeed him in the com mand of the army stationed on the coasts of the Channel.

On the first intelligence of this attempt, Fatli-Ali-Schah ordered übody of tioups to he assembled at Shin's, and to proceed to the part of the roast tt licit was threatened. This corps was put under the com mand of Ismael Bey, an ()Meer of distinction, who served with reputation on the frontiers of Georgia.
