Inquiring the cause, he found, that a person who had gone in to bathe was drowned. He offered a large stun to any one who would attempt to save him, but in vain. At last he threw off his coat, and jumped into the water, and in some few minutes got hold of the person and carried him safe on shore. This person, who was a clergyman, ad dressed thanks to his benefaelor, who, not compre hending what he said, answered : I have more d'fficulty to understand you, than I had to save you." The people applauded him loudly ; but, without paying attention to it, he jumped into li;s carriage and drove away. His humane and nubic benefatior remained ill for some days, in ccnse quence of having swallowed much water. • (The Gazette of Naples.) FROM TIIE MONITE.UR. ETAPIES. AVG. 23.

Private letters from Paris state, that at the Coro nation of BotrweaßTE, a Emperor of the French, anus• Nobility will be instituted, unlir the title of Patricians, by a Sena•as CJivattas. is he vocl.Omed upon that occasion. This measure wi!l intnede all per sons, with their families and descendants, who, within the first ten years of Bortaitait re's reign, have occupied, or shall occupy, the first and great places of State, such as Field Marshals, Corn mantlers in Chief, Generals of Die;sion, Minis ters, Cardinals, Grand °dicers of the Legion of Honour, Counsellors of State, Senators, Ste. By the same Senfrttrr Conerftvi a new Equestrian Order will also be instituted, consisting of all those per sons, their families and descendants, who, within tie same period of ten years, have been, or shall be, Tribunes, Legislators, Prefeels, Bishops, Com manders of the Legion of Honour, Generals of Brigade, Presidents of Tribunals, Governors of Fortresses, Ike. All these members of the Patri cian or Equestrian Ortkrs, their rat:iv .s and de scendants, are to have a preference ;ti all applica tions for places, and to have precedence of their fellow-citizens. They are to wear their coats of arms, as they shall receive them front the It:steelier, upon the day of his Coronation; but without any titles of Dukes, Marquises, Counts, or Barons. They may, however, annex to their signatures tt —of the Patrician Order," or " of the Equestrian Order." Their children will also b e received in preference to any others at the Prytanees, Military Schools, and all public offices as well as at Court. They are not to be subjeo to the laws of military conscription, but will begin their career in the army as cadets or volunt eers,and, upon the first vacancy, will be advanced to the rank of off*.cers. Benches, boxes, or pews, will be erefled in the theatres, churches, and other public places, for the exclusive accommodation of the Pa tricians, the Members of the Equestrian Order, and their families. Such are the outlines of the plan of a new Senoras Consulter, circulated at Paris, no doubt, to prepare the public mind for this scanda lous innovation, which is to elevate the rabble upon the I dins of the old nobility. A revolutionary no bility is necessary to the support of a revolutionary throne ; and therefore, wherever the Usurper can change a lawful dynasty, its supporters and props, its hereditary nobility, will be sere to share the fate of their Sovereign, if they do not purchase their safety by treachery and treason ! ! The first plat of the French rebels was against religion and hereditary property ; and the second, against hereditary rank. In November, 173% the confiscation and sale of the church-lands were de creed by the National Assembly; and, in May, 1790, the annihilation of all titles, and hereditary nobility. On the 10th of August, 174, the neces sary consequence, the destruCtion of the Throne follcwed, an imaginary equality was proclaimed, and all men of property were proscribed as aristo crats, or arrested as such. Box•raare. began his reign in 179 f, with a step the very reverse of Li. rebellions predecessors ten years before. His firs' Measure was to recal the clergy, by a concordat with the Pope, to make them revolutionary ; and, by salaries from himself, to attach them to his Go vernment. His next step was to Trotea all the pur chasers, or rather plunderers, of national property, to make them his principal placernan, and to be stow upon them all distinaions and honours. He has, therefore, ascended the Throne with the same supports which the National Assembly took away, to overturn it. Knowing that a revolutionary reli gion, and a revolutionary property, are not always sufficient to secure the continuance of a monarchical, or rather despotic government ; he now creates a Revolutionary Nobility, who, to their former obli gation, add that of hereditary rank ; and whose po litical, an,l, considering their former crimes, moral, and ph) sical existence, is entirely ccnne&ed with the existence of the Bosar•azt family, in supreme authority. To keep, however, the persons "an are either disaffeaed from principles, or disappointed from ambition, quiet, in hope, and obedience, he holds out to them the prospea of being, within five years, as elevated and powerful as those, whom they now hate or envy ; who surround him as Courtiers, advise him as Counsellors, serve him as Senators. command his armies as Generals, pray for him as Priests, or negociate for him as Politicians ; all living in affluence, bowing to their tyrant indeed, hut plundering or oppressing their ,inferiors with impu nity. That such allurements, held out to an im moral, proud, and selfish people, like the modern French, will meet with the expealed success, unfor tunately, cannot be doubted, particularly in the present depraved times, when so many Continental Kings are no longer Royalists themselves; so few Continental Ministers are found possessing talents and honesty; and so many Continental Prelates AVOW themselves lukewarm Christians, or dangerous infidels. By this new revolutionary measure, Bost AP ARTE takes a great stride towards the accomplishment of his favouriteobjeft of un:rersal rerolation, by establish. ing, or rather erecting every where new dynasties, new nobles, and new proprietors. From the , very nature of his Government, and its supporters, be and they, note ithstanding the most solemn treaties, and the most sacred guarantees, must continue, for their own and reciprocal safety, in continual opposi tion or enmity with all ancient Governments and institutions. BoNAPAnTE can never be secure upon his usurped throne, as long as any legitimate Prince remains independent ; the rank of his new nobles, so nearly conneCted with the situation of their master, most remain precarious, as long as any old nobility can pride themselves, not only upon their own vir tues, but upon the names of noble ancestors, and their atchievements. BONAPARTE'S decrees, or Se. RaifiX Conlailt us, are unable to insure the new French proprietors their ill-acquired possessions, as long as inheritance, or contrafis with lawful owners, are every where else the only titles to the lawful enjoy ment of wealth or estates ; or, in short, as long as property, as well as rank, have not changed hands, enriched guilty beggars, and elevated ambitious cri minals. As long as BONAPARTE reigns, the scaffold of Louis XVI. the exile of Louis XVIII. and the proscription of the Princes of their blood, are there. fore the only prospea for all legitimate Sovereigns and their families. They or the Corsican Usurper must fall. In the sufferings and wretchedness of the banished and plundered French nobility and gentry, nobles, gentlemen, and men of property, of all countries, may read what awaits them, as long as BONAPARTE continues upon a throne, sup ported by men, who, but a few years ago, were confounded in the crowd, unknown intriguers, needy adventurers, and ruined and desperate charaeters, equally destitute of education, of honour, of prin ciples, and of property. The conduCt of a Fat- DERICK WILLIAM 111. of a Fa asocis 11. or rather of their Counsellors, and of those of some other Continental Princes, will make revolutions every where else more easy than that of France: when BONAPASTE gives the signal of destruCtion, their adherents and followers must iw hot ; because, they cannot but remember, that insults and wretched. ness have been the only rewards for the loyalty of the adherents of the Botta soma ; at the same time, that distinCtions and affluence, power, respe4l, and riches, have, even by Monarchy, been heaped upon the traitors, most distinguished in the French One of the Hamburgh Mails due arrived yester day, with letters and papers to the 29th. An arti cle from Amsterdam states, that an army of 153,000 men was to embark early in this month for the invasion of England, and that BONAPARTE would remain upon the coast until it had sailed. we know, however, by later information from France, that he is gone to join the mock Empress at Aix-la-Chapelle, and to visit the forts and banks of the Rhine. While the vain and puerile prepa rations for t h e EMPIIIOI . 6 Coronation, as Emrcauß of Ansi - n A, engross all die conversation of Vienna, new insurrections have broken out in the Turkish Empire. The insurgents have driven away the Pacha of A LEP via ; the Wehabis are again masters of the vicinity of Mecca and Medina, and the rebels of Romelia have again Merited the troops of the Strt.TAN, and are approaching the Turkish capital. The anarchy in Turkey is, however, less to be dreaded, than the absurd vanity of Aus tria, because the former only threatens one Em pire with destruction, whilst the latter, by its new title, organises the degradation and slavery of every Continental state. It is said; that a Rus sian courier has brought information to Vienna of an alliance having been concluded between England and Russia ; but the Austrian Cabinet is now s o busy with coronation preparations, that this event has excited not even a sentiment of curiosity. The rumonrs of the force anl destination of the Russian Fleet in the road of Copenhagen are va rious and contradiCtory. A new reinforcement of Russian ships has lately sailed from Constantinople for Corfou. Yesterday we receive/ the Ato::ileurt of the 24th and 25th. They are totally destitute of news. The S per cents were, on the 21th, SG fr. 35 cents. The report of the capture of the Lill, sloop of war is confirmed by the following extra from The Norj:: Herald, an American paper, of the 24th July : " Sunday morning last arrived here part of the crew of the British sloop of war bity, captured on the 15th inst. by the French privateer, La Dame Hated, Capt. CHARLES LF.MAINUF., who, the day before, captured the ship Mary of Liverpool, from Africa for Savannah, with a valuable cargo of slave., ivory, &c. and a ship from Honduras for London, with mahogany : atter taking out the most valuable part of the Mary's cargo, they gave h er up to the crew, and put the Lill,',, and the other ship's men, on board. They detained Mr. ASHTOS (Captai❑ of the Mary), and proposed carrying him to Guade loupe, as an evidence for conderunat'on. The Lilly mounted sixteen 12-pounders, and had, seventy-six men on board ; the privateer mounted fourteen 12-pound carronades, and two Lang nine•pounders . with 140 men on board. Capt. COMPTOPI, and Lieut. FowtErt, of the Lilly, were kiiled." On Saturday, about two o'clock, the SWEDISH AMR ASSADOR transaaed business with Lord HA s nowily, at his Office. At three o'clock, the Luisa CHANCELLOR was with his Lordship. The Downs squadron is to be immediately aug mented by sixteen armed ships, which have been recently commissioned. The new works at Dover, it is expated, will be completed before Christmas; two Regiments of Militia are constantly employed on them. Four sixty-f' urs, namely, the Intrepid. Stately, Nucor, and Viewer, are to be navigated from the Medway to the Thames, .in order to be repaired in some of the merchant yards on the river ; the Ruby of 64, and the Romney of 50, are to be re paired at Chatham. The Firm, Foriout, Pineiter, Tickler, and Sparkler gun-brigs, are ready for sea at Chatham ; but Com manders have not yet been appointed ro them. The Orestcs and Champion attacked a detachment of praams and gun-boats, as they were creeping along shore from Gravelines to Boulogne, on Thurs day last; but they kept so very near their own bat teries, as to render it impossible to cut them oft. In the evening' of the same gay, the same division doubled Cape Grisnez, when they were attacked by the boalorialiti, who had one man killed by a shot from the batteries. At this time none of the flotilla were outside Boulogne P.N.; but on Friday morning they came and arranged themselves close under the batteries, to the number of about one hundred and twenty, of different descriptions, not to attack our little squadron, but to exercise their fair weather sailors. Orders have been received at Oxford, for facili tating the progress of a large body of troops through that county by forced marches..

The Light Companies of the different Regiments on the coast are to be immediately completed to 10'J men ; and it is supposed that they will be em• ployed to man the gun-boats which are preparing to meet those of the enemy. During last week a number of foreigners lan.?- ed at Gravesend from Holland and Germany, who pretend to be merchants, coming over here for the sales at the East India House. Among them are many Jews, and several Swiss, Italians, And Frenchmen. We hope that Government, before it permits BUN AA AA subjeds to come to the Ca • pital, is convinced that they, as well as persons from countries tyrannised over by the Corsican, are really what they represent themselves ; and, instead of buyers of our goods, are not dealers in treason, be longing to the secret French Police, sent over here as spies and intriguers to disseminate disafedion, or to plot conspiracies.
