" LOUIS COUNT I" 'themes. Sept. 9.160.1.." Mae —The extrath from the .Vcuillerra of the II th of May. and 19th a Jane, referred to ,n the above rewipt, relate to she number of voops aisenitiled is the camps at Marengo sod Cita :atee. The Declarations which have been interchanged between the Courts of Vienna.. Petersburgh and Paris, relative to dr: renew.il of the Negotia:ions for Peace, proposed by the former Court, have been printed and distributed among the Members of the Diet. They consist of the following papers : First, the Declaration of the Court of Vienna, transmitted an the sth of August to Paris, and on the 7th, to Petersburgh, containing the over of a me dia'ion for Peace. The second is a Note of M. de Talleyrand, dated Cot I nth of August, in answer to the above, in which the difficulties that woul.l attend such a Mediation, are enumerated. It is added, that it is to be hoped, that Austria will desist from her preparations; that, ttt latter Power had, at that time, MOM men in halt ; and France, only 50,000 ; that if Austria would declare it to b. list determination to remai❑ neutral, Peace would be the wish of England. This is followed by a second Note of M. de Talley rand, delivered on the I oith of August, to the Aus trian Ambassador, Count Coisentzel. in this Note, a categorical explanation is demanded of the motives of Austria, for such great preparations. If Austria be sincerely desirous of peace, says the writer, let the twenty-one regiments which have been sent to Tyrol he recalled ; let the works at the different fortifica tions be stopped ; let the number of troops in 6:yria and Carinthia be diminis!!fd; and let Austria ac quaint England, that it is firer desire to remain per tesgly neutral. The third Paper is a Declaration dispatched by the Russian Ambassador, Count Rasummisky, on t i ~~ ~~ . l ~ the 31st of August, to Vienna. In this it is declared, Vittilt•, MT. 11. that His Majesty the Emperor of Russia, accepts the The advanced guard of the Russian troops, is ex proffered mediation of Austria. In order, at the peEled to arrived at /Minn, on the 12th inst. same time, to give a powerful supp;;rt to the nevi. The Hued' Ambassador here, has received a tiation, and to enable himself to afford assistance to Courier from Mr. Arbuthnot, the English Ambassa his allies, His Imperial Majesty of all the Russias dor at Constantinople, with dispatches of the 25th of has resolved to order two armies, each of 50,000 August. The Porte has given orders to augthent men, to march through Gallicia to the Danube; its forces, both by sea and land, as speedily as pos that Russia nislied for nothing more than peace ; sible. that she would instantly recall her troops, as soon as this desireable ohjea should be obtained, in a secure manner, for all the States of Europe. Fourthly and lastly, follows a Declaration of the Court of Vienna, to that of France, which was dis patched on the 3d of September, from Vienna to Paris. It states, that the Court of Vienna has no ether objea than to maintain peace, and pacific re lations with France, as well an the geaeral tran quillity of the Continent. But, in order to preserve peace, it is necessary that treaties should be fulfilled; whoever violates them is the aggressor. By the Treaty of Luneville, the independence of the Italian, as well as of the Batavian and Helvetic Repu'.lics, via guaranteed. Every State must respeet the rights and independence of other States, he they !Wong, or be they weak. A coot' sty line of endue, is a summons to other Stat,, to arm and to unite, for the preservation ;if their security. The Court of Vienna has been c^ by vs rious proceedings, to its prepar a• ; \ ustr, a •55, most faithfully, complied with tire condition. of the Treaty of Luneville, and hes manifested the great est moderation. Inaovations have beers made in Italy, and great numbers of French troops have been assembled. The Emperor is arming, but not with a hostile intention ; he arms merely for the preservation of peace between himself and France, and for the preservation of the balance and tranquillity ot Europe. His Imperial Ma. jeLty renews his offer to mediate for peace. Bosh the Austrian and Russian Court hereby so lemnly declare, that they are ready to negotiate with the French Court fur the maintenance of peace on the Continent, upon the most moderate terms, that are compatible with the general vanquillity and security. NVlratever may be the issue of the negociations, and should even the breaking out of the war be inevitable, they have mutually made a pniat not to intermeddle in the internal affairs ot France, nor to alter the pre.e.,t state of the posses. sions and relations in Or. German Empire, and to maintain the integrity of the Great Britain everrtains the same views a the same moderate sentiments, for the restoration ot peace with France. Imp.rial Play: sty wishes that these declarations may contribute to p, event the evil, which otherwise it would not be in his power to avert from man kind. &system, sets. 11. After the Prince of SchwAizeiii._l4 arrived here on the sth of this month, he iciph,,ted the Eleetor to oder his troops to join the Impewal Army. Ott the other Lod, the French ArtrlassAdor, M O•to, makes strong remonstrances in a Note on the sub jeCt. The Ele:tor, therefure, resolved to repair himself, with his family, and a part of his Court, to Wurtzburg, and to march his army, consisting of 35,000 men, into the principalities of Bamberg and Wurtzburg, in the hope that the great powers would reaped the neutrality of Bavaria. In his re tinue was the worthy Minister of State Baron Mont gelas, Etc. General Nagar°la has set out for Vienna, with a special comsuission from the Eleltor; Count Rumford has, according to report, under taken the mission to Paris; and the EleCtor himself will, it is said, make a short journey from Wertz burg to Berlin. The departure of the EleCtoral Fa mily was extremely painful to all the inhabitants of this city, where an inexpressible dejeCtion prevails. Toe garrison is quite withdrawn, and the citizens have undertaken to do duty. The report that the Imperial T►rmps had disarrned the Bavarian regiment of Duke Puii, at Pasiau, is unfounded ; the Austrians no whtre commit hos tiiitirs, ►at conduit themselves as friends. fit T. 12. FRANKFORT, SEP C. 14. It is imagined here, that it is not improbable, within a fortnight or three weeks, some great battle may take place between the armies, which are now rapidly approaching each other. LEGHORN, AUGUST Our city has, for these many years, invariably found a powerful patroness in the miraculous image of the Mother of God, at Monte Nero (near Leg horn), but particularly during the unfortunate month of last year, when we were visited by a dan gerous' malady. This induced the Magistracy, in' compliance with the wishes of the citizens, to re quest permission of the Queen, that this wonder working image of the Virgin might be brought, in solemn procession, from Monte Nero to this place, and pUblicly exhibited to the veneration of the people. Our pious Queen readily gave her consent to this •desire, and, on the 13th and 15th of Oc tober, this solemnity will take place. BERLIN, SEPT. 16. The porcelain vases intended as a present from Fier Majesty the Queen of Prussia, to the French Empress, will set nut for Paris in a few days, ac companied by M. Rosenstiel, Counsellor of Mines, and M. Clauce, the Painter. STOCKHOLM, SEPT. 10. This day, the Prince of Finland, Charles Gus tavus, born December 2, 1802, expired at Drott ningholm, of a disorder incident to children. W. 5 RSAW, SIFT. IS. The march of the Russian troops has taken a more distant direStion from the Prussian tiontiers. Four columns have passed by Brody, in their way into Moravia ; the rest will go by Palo'', and so direst their march to Cracow and I..2mberg. According to several accounts, a considerabl- Russian army will be embarked at Chers n. LINZ, SUPT. M. The Austrian troops which have pa s sed the Inn, are expedied in this city to-morrow ; Gen. Klenau conimands the advanced guard, which, yesterday, was a long day's march from Ma:tith. The head quarters, it is said, will come to Nyphenhcrg, and the Field Chancery, to Munich. The Austrian troops observe a trvly excellent discipline. It was believed that they would not advance beyond the Lech, where they would wait the issue of negotia tion. But of negotiation there is now little hope; a•sd the Austrian troops will soon approach the Rhine, through Suabia. The centre of the Austrian army is now at Ilohenlinden, tw•o posts from this city. Our city is in melancholy suspense. This after noon the Imperial Troops hive advanced to Paes torff, throe bouts and a half rr..r.-h from Eence, and to-morrow they will be at Rim, about six miles from this piece. The Russians are in full march fur Moravia ; tear litunn they will divide, and a column take the road to Italy. It is said, the Emperor Alexander will shortly arrive at the main army. Fo•morrow night, eight regiments, which are still in the camp at Wels, will break up for the Inn. Extra& of a Letter from liambure, Sept. 20. " The French infantry from Hanover has been es corted arnegh Hesse, unarmed. Three regiments of cavalry, however, having refused to give up their arms, were attacked, and very severely treated by the Hessians." mAnain, SUS. SO. On the !3d of this month, the troops on board the Grand Combined Fleet at t:adir, were landed and marched into barracks. Whether they will be again embarked, or are de►tined to 28 against Gib raltar, is not known with certainty. For the rest, the greatest aCtivity prevails at Cadiz, to equip the Spanish ships of the line there, and provide the flea with provisions and ammunition. Admiral Graviaa has resigned the command of the Spanish fleet, in consequence of a misunder standing tvith Admiral Grandellana, Commander in Chief of the fleet of Ferrol, who is likewise at Cadiz. Yesterday was published a !loyal Decree, in which it is ordered, that all the Spaniards who are in fo reign countries, and hare not especial commissions from Government, shall return home within foor, or at most six months, upon pain of losing one /mil of their propetty. c•DI7, •.:o. 21.

The utmost consternation prevails among the in habitants of I34varia and Swabia, at the prospet'l of a new war. It is apprehended, not without reason, that both those countries will be the theatre of con tention between the immense hostile armies. This consternation is still farther increased, as the wounds hafted by the late war are not yet healed ; and all the corporations in the towns and villages are more or less deeply in debt, in consequence of the requi sitions and contributions they were obliged, for eight years, to furnish the belligerent powers. For the lass eight days the roads from Munich to Augs burg, and Donauwerth to Wurtzhurg, have been covered with carriages, cannons, and ammunition. Great quantities of goods have been brought by fugitives of the neutral Imperial City of Augsburg. The Imperial Mint at Gunzburg is at work, night and day, for the army. As many of the country people carried their corn into their tarns wet, it begins to grow ; so that it it necessary to carry out the sheaves, and to ventilate the barns. te •.• One of the two Gentlemen, oh.. called To.t. 81117134 Pius Office yesterday, t.ft a raluaW s plow, behind him.

This State Paper i• of great importance. It describes the conduct of France, in resped of Italy and the German Empire,ia language so clear and precise, as to preclude all s ks cessity of observation. The fads are sn natneicus, and the reasoning so convincing, the most shallow and superficial observer must acknowledge their truth.

In its technical form it only professes to be the answer of the Este CROR, but in sabstar.ce it is the joint M 41.!. leg° of Russsia and Austria against France. An a:. count of Aetna' hostilities is the next news which wr may taped to recei.:e from the Continent. We have no reason to lo.sk fur any further declaratioa on the part of the two confederated Est I , E noes. At all events, should any such he thought necessary, it can only be this Rescript of Austria in a more hashed and expanded form. The materials must be the same. The die is, therefore, now cast, and Austria and Russia must proceed with the true spirit and ene:gy of great nations, prepared for extremities. The advanced guard of the Austrian army, under General KLEsau, was only one day's march from Munich, on the 12th, and was expeded to enter that city on the next day. The centre was es Ho. henlinden. The Russians were confidently expeEled to reach Brunn, in Moravia, on the 12th. They were theta to divide into two columns, one of which is to pro ceed to Italy.
