Some of the Princes of Germany are about to take measures to prevent the manoeuvres of certain emissaries who debauch the inhale:Ants of that rennin:, under pretext of sending them to the United States, where they are promised all imagi nary happiness; hut, in fael, to sell them to the English Government. The following Paper proves the conditions and the tariff of this infamous 'retie, by means or whidi honest and simple countermen, believing they are eriog to America, are thrown tipen the shores of England, and sold At eel much a head, to he trans jorted to the English Colonies. , The course preposed by Rob. Smith to Sir Gen. Rusisbeld, one of the late Ministers front EnglAtid, Harnburgh. has been atiNned. tirniih is roll at lefernbileeh, where he continues to flit ft these car goes of men. With re-peet to this , übjeet, the authenticity of the following letter may be relied uponl— " TO SIR GEORGE RI1AR(11.1).

(Signed) " ROBERT SMITH. * The Ntetsiterse, of the 7th, has the following Note on Ilia Majesty's Message of the 19th of June : " Thu: His Britannoc Majesty confesses that, after tit months, he has no relatioae with the 'towers of the Continent which could have preveet ell, s stated by his Ministers in their Letter to tie Wainer fur Foreign Affairs, an answer to the ()venters of Peace made by the Emperor of the French. These reltibons, which appeared then to be so clnie that he could not dispense with ennsulting those Powers with whom he heal coot, eaed them, are nothing more than " com munications which have not yet acquited a degree of maturity which will permit him to enter into ulterior explanations With the French Govern ment." The answer made by the Ministers six months ago was therefore false, and if there wet* not relations then, there are no more new. His Bri tannic Majesty sleds, " That it may be of essential impottaree that lie should be enabled to profit by every favourable etujundure to effeet, with other Powers, such a concert its may give him the means of resisting the uric :edified ambition of France." What pacific ditpositiuns! Two years since His Britannic Majesty neither looked to nor wished for any coali tion. Will he succeed, or will he not succeed, is a question not difficuh to resolve. Hew Joes the ease stand? His Mejecty would have been much more titiek, end would not ',eve entangled a simple eicipotition, if he had said, that lie did not wish to treat before he had haul *veer six campaigns with the Coalesced Powers. Then it would remain to be as eestained what advaatege lied been gained afterthese five or six campaigns, and if this advantage should be in proportion to the sacrifice oe two or 300,000 men. His Majesty might then resolve to make Peace. Peace, the object of pest ambition to all wise Go vernments, appears to be only a sort of last shift to His Britannic Majesty. W. ho does not wish that England may fine Europe deaf to every projelt of Coalition ? who deer not pray fcr the success of the arms of a nation, who wishes tOr nothing hut Peace, whilst England, its Enemy, calls out with loud cries f the return of those disasters which have so long a !lined Europe ? 66 His Il r j pra, i cM ijesty think; he can (incite a part of the Letter of :he Emperor of the Fituce, to peeve tn the Continent that the Emperor fears Eng land, and that, /stems- be desires peace, he fears war; thus hoping to Indus e come power to enter into I..rew Coalition. '1 he Cabinet of Lawton has net regleefee t o vipport w; ak reasoning by offers of subsidies ; bin ;t will be perceived, that it does not peace a vehre suMciently high on such services, and that it mist pay still dearer. The Parliament have granted 5,000,000/ steeling ; still more will be eske lof them. We shall see wether the generosity or the merchants will render the course more easy. " Every word, every ail of this Government, bears the charaeter of disorder and madness. It is a strenge political declaration, which the Ministers pot into the mouth of the King, when they make hint say, disc ireely ennegh, that he will not make peace, until he can no longer mike wet. It will neeessarile result, that, when be wishes for peace, it will be imagined that he is constrained to make it, and that more, therefore, may be eleeted from him. " What then is to be concluded from such a message ? It is, that the re-establishment of the tranquilley of Eumpe is far distant, as the English Government will not be diposed to peace until it shall bee csmvinced that no power will concur its feed ing the flame. and that it has no longer Ministers or intrigeers who can hope to purchase such as sistance." F STUTGAND, JVLY I. Letters from Inspruck mention, that the Arrival of the Emperor of the irench on the Austrian fron tiers has caused an universal joy. It is impossible to describe the enthusiasm with which the inhabit ants or that part gml the Venetian territory which is e.n the Left Bank of the Adige speak of the Hero of the Age. Very exaggerated accounts have been circulated with respea to the r.umlser of Austrian troops which Pres the Cordon on the Austrian frontiers burn the Adriatic Gulf to the borders of SwitzerlAnd.

The inhabitants of Deal were alarmed, on WeJ nesday night, with au incessant firing, in the direc tion of Calais. The Port-Admiral and his Officers were called from their beds. The K I ships in the Downs slipped their cables, and bore away for the coast of France, it • being the general opinioti that the enemy were making some grand move ment. Thursday mot niug the Gri,,Si cutter arrived at Deal, with an account that the filing had pro ceeded from a part of the enemy's flotilla, which was endeavouring to escape from Calais to Bou logne, and four of our cruisers. The attempt of the enemy was frustrated ; but it WAS thou ;ht they would make another effort yesterday. We under ' stand that no loss has been sustained upon our part; but it is supposed that the enemy have suffered considerably. Several sloops and gun brigs sailed on Thursday to reinforce our squadron off the French coati. Another account states, that the firing proceeded from an attack made by the de tached squadron. under the command of Captain OwL fip on about 120 of the enemy's vessels anchored under the batteries at It oulognei; which. although condueled with great judgment and gallantry, did not prove successful, while our ships experienced some damage. We are still without any accounts from Lord NeLsofi more recent than those brought by the Cis risisx. An interesting letter from an Officer in his Lorca hip's fleet, brought by that vessel, is given in the last pag:. A Gottenburgh Mail arrived yestcrddy; and we also received Fr;reign Papers, but none of a later date than those brought by the Ham/I:ugh Mail of the !Ith. We have, however, made some extrads from them, which are given in a preceding column. On Thursday the Sweotsit and Rt. , ,sl A.: ANISAS. AADO R s transaded business at Lind MULGR AT t.'S Office.

Yeiterday a Court of Dire fors was held at the East-India House, when Capt. 8C.4.1 *MIN RICH ARDSON was sworn into the command of the ship AlG,oia, consigned for Madras dire Ct. The Court aujourned at six o'clock till Wednesday next. It is reported, that the Combined Fleet captured an outward-bound West-India Packet, and carried her into Martinique. Mr. Fosrxit returned to town on Thursday from Cheltenham. As soon as the official arrangements vrhidi are necessary no this side of rue water are completed, he will go over to Ireland, for the pur pose of completing his plan for the regulation of the Irish Revenue, and his extensive patronage. BON A ????? it is said, means to extend the French frontier on the side of Holland—the Bata vian Government to receive in return a slight portion of Pr ussian territory, and Prussia to receive a com pensation from the Eledorate of Hanover. Born mel and the Brills have been named as part of the new boundary. Major Berwas, of the HOW. East India Cons pany's service, sad lately arrived from Lid the Cape of Good Hope, on a neutral s hip, yes terdAy the honour of a long conference, by appoint ment, with the Right Hon. Mr. PITT, at Whitebait. This Gentleman, and other Officers in His Majesty's aid the Company's service, were, we learn, made prisoners of war by the Ratavian Government at the Cape, but permitted to proceed to Europe, on giving their parole not to serve against them, or their allies (unless exchanged), during the war. Attempts have been recently made by some of the enemy's emissaries, to ascertain the defensive state of our forts along the coast. Tuesday two persons. supposed to be spies from the enemy's coast, were deteacd in the ad of endeavouring to bribe the sentinel to gain admittance into Deal Castle. Their questions, as to the state of the tort, tb • calibre of the ordnance, with all its means of defence, were overheard by one of the foot guards, who observed them while taking minutes of the an swers they received, followed them into Deal, and caused them to be apprehended. Yesterday the Loyal Whitechapel Volunteers, un der the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Hamby, marched from their Head-Quarters in Goodman's Fields to Hackney Fields, where they met the Spi taiields and Hackney Volunteers, and were brigaded by Lieut.-Colonel fl•loor t after which they had a grand field-day, and went through their evolutions and firing with great exatiness, mach to the satisfac tion of the lnspaling Field Officer, Lieutenant- Colootl HANDY. /1 THEATRE. V HAVNIARICET. The new comedy, entitled the V . /Ilene, wit re peated here last night. Some marks of disapntoba tran were expressed from the beginning, but nothing decisive took place until the appearance of Mrs Glees in the chirttder of nom, when the audience, sometimes anticipating, and sometimes echoing the phrases " Yes, Mamma, no, Mamma," which but too frequently occur, attempted to throw the piece into contempt and ridicule. From this point aloud cry of "qtf, sr," but it was overcome by the perseverance of the performers, until the last scene, When a clamour was raised that triumphed over all opposition, and the curtain fell, amidst a loud and universal uproar, leaving the piece unfinished. A few voices now vociferated; " Go on, go on, raise the custom ;" while others eXclaimed, " No. no. the noes hare st." The Pit exhibited a most disorderl, scene : gentlemen were disputing in it, some even fighting. In every part of it might be seen Ladies fainting, and, while one man was pulling out his card. another was administering his smelling bottle. Confusion prevailed .n every bench of it. After several minute.' of tumult of this kind, Mr. axis- TON came abruptly forward, with evident marks of discomposure, and as if he had limed his way. Some time elapsed before he could obtain a hearing. Being at length permitted to speak, he proceeded as follows, with much perturbation : " I am so much ..pruned, on at-count of the treatment I have received behind the scenes, that I c truitrt now speak, bet I wit %Merl,' address you" licre a great uproar was raised, and a Gentleman exclaimed from one of t: e upper buses, " Mr. Ex tistort, take care what you do." The voice was then drowned by the cry of "hear him ! bear him ! go on !goon ! Mr. Er. Lis rots then advanced close to the front of the stage, and resuming his address, said-- i• Ladies and Gentlemen—l have alwars met w:th the gtem-st respett, pation.tge, and protettion,betare the :main, to this bathe, and shall ever rettialit grateful t.n - it ; but I ow a duty to the managers and to my employer., which I moot pert. cm. On this account, and from a feeling f o r the author, I was induced, last night, ta appeal to your kindness for a patient hearing. You were ;tond enough to grant it to me, b tbe my soul (w to a sinwrg ',Thesis)! nothing in tins world wit. ever i :dues one stubbornly to resist the truth. The piecs has now got a second trial ; and wha , was my opt..iou at the first, is now evident. It cannot du. Theraxe. I am to acquaint you, that It is wirlidision, " and Gentlenwm—t4^ Comedy of The tteseelia will be performed to IlltltrOV/ eveninit." During the whole of the time Mr. Ex tisroa was speaking, there was, at intervals, a general cry of Rears ! Brat* ! Right ! Right ! Shortly after tran quillity was restored, and the remainder of the night passed off quietly, except upon Mr. Ex *Arrow's ap pearance in Toe Hunter the Alps, when a slight and partial degree of disapprobation was expressed, but it was soon lost in the lou i and general apislause. -.- -•r.r7.r~e.—-.. - AL . i10441L C , WRY/MOUTH, JULY 13.

The Novel Reader will learn, with a considerable degree of satisfaction, that the elegant author of Melee of Weimar has retired to Worthing, for the purpose of completing a work in three volumes, which will be entitled Cecil Cesite. From the style, sentiment, and pathos, so conspicuous in the former produCtion of Mrs. MARTIN, there is every reason tv expect that Cecil Cartfr will rank very high indeed in that class of literature, to which it is intended to belong. 7 he Fourth If June, or Miro Boy, at the RovAL CI& cos, continues its powerful attraction upon every class of the Public undiminished. The splendid and highly interesting Speltacle of birozen, is an esta blished favourite; and the Harlequinade of A Mogul T'ale, with the Clown Of BRADBURY, raised incessant laughter.
