Verbal Communication of the Fiend/ Ambas sador, t the Nlinisters of the Elc!lor of Hesse, in saLuo a ace as : le had been ordered to signify to His Elenoral Highness. that His Majesty, the Emperor of the French, had heard, with peat indignation, of the re-admi.sion of the English Ambassador, Taylor, alto - he had been accused, in all the public pa pe.s of France and G-rmany, as an accomplice in the consp;racy against His Majesty, and no vindication of the ehsrge has ever appeared in any English publication. His French Alajesty could nut forbear considering the farther acknow ledgment of the above-mentioned Ambassador as an affront, which would dissolve the relations of amity hitherto subaisting between the two Courts, as he c.:uld n. t rrniit his Ambassador to remain at this Court with a person charged with such an accu sation. He had, therefore, been commanded to re quite, that the removal of the Ambassador, daylor, from the dominions of Hesse, might take place, at farthest, in eight or ten days ; and that his Court would be obliged to consider the refusal to comply with this request, as a proof of a formal union with the enemy of France, and as a declaration of war, which would justify it in enforcing this demand by arms. He had, at the same time, received direc tions, in case of refusal, to quit the dominions of Ilesse without delay. 2. Verbal reply of the Minister of State of the Eleaor of Ileste. Hi► Eleaoral Highness, who was absent at Nenn dorfr, had not expened, after the steps he had ta'sen to satisfy the French Government, to be urged in such a pressing manner on this occasion, but rather thought himself justified in expeding, from its equity, that it would wait for the result of his last representations to the King of England. The Elec tot, however, would, in a few days, return from Cassel, and would then employ every mean in his power for clearing up the misunderstanding with the French Court, with which he sincerely wished to re niam in relations of amity. $. lnstrudions of His Prussian Majesty, to his A mhassaJor at Penis, to the following effeft : His M.tjesty could Rot believe that M. Bignon had been authorised by his government to take a step so authoritative, and accompanied with such menaces of his Eleaoral Highness, ;rod, still less, that the Emperor of the French could have the intention of giving such serious consequences to this discussion, as M. Bignon had taken upon htmsvlf to arnounce ; that he was so much the more dipoced to disbelieve these menaces, as M. Bignon bad reused to give a written de. slatation on this subj-ei His Majesty, therefore, commissioned his Minister to the Emperor of the French, to make the strongest and most urgent remonstrances, as no sovereign court would suffer aiuther to dismiss the accredited Minister of a third smart, unless it had received satisfaillory proofs that he had violated the law of nations. Such proofs were still wanting with regard to Mr. Taylor ; and. be.ides, the French C.iice, , :nment had, on this oc. c 'lion, omitted the proc:•ediiip:s it had observed re , - 1 4,01110141 he Court of Munich and Stuttgardt, to 1::i4 !wen .osioas to colimninicate the do• catnea:s • it:t wet,: to jusitifg tic dismission of ~_._ ". Messrs. Drake and Spencer Smith. bat it be duly considered, what would become of diplomatic af fairs, and the relations between nations, if it were permitted to set aside forms so ancient, and conse crated by the respell of ages. his Majesty autho rised his AmlsassaJor to desire, that M. Bignon might instantly Ire direlted to revoke his demand with regard to Mr. Taylor, to signify to the French Government, that he could not surfer a measure in the least inimical to the Eleaor, his relation and friend, to be adopted, and to represent that such a measure would run counter to all the relations sub sisting between Prussia and France, with which Ills Majesty wished to maintain a goad understand ing ; a wish he had Inl every occasion been anxious to evince : that, tor the rest, the French Govern ment would act contrary to its own interest, and pruntote :bat of its enemy, were it determined to excite, in this Trimmer, new hostilities on the Con tinet.t. 4. Written Note of the French Ambassador, of the 20th of July. In this note it was required, that Mr. Brook Tay lor should no longer be considered as the English Ambassador at the Hessian Court, and that he should be removed, within eight or ten days, from the dominions of Hesse. This demand was accom panied with the declaration, that, in case of refusal, M. Mignon was ordered to quit the tlessiau States without delay. b. Answer of tlie Hessian Minister, of the 4th of August, to the following effect : In order to satisfy the demand of the French Em peror, His F.leaoral Highness has again transmitted A remonstrance to the British Minister; and the Eleelnr had, besides, written, with his own hand, to the King of England. As His Prussian Nlajesty had taken tyon himsolf the mediation with the Court of France, the result of these negotiations would shortly be seen. For the rest, Nlr. Taylor was, at that time, absent, and tire place of his abode was unknown. 6. Note of the French Ambassador of the 6th of Auguit. The little tour of Mr. Taylor to Geismar could not be considered as a dismissal by the Eleetorate Court of Hesse, and he (the Ambassdor) was under the necessity of positively repeating his former declara tions and menaces; especially as his Elefloral High ness had, with his owa mouth, assured him, that he would no longer recognise the English Ambassa dor. . Third note of the French ambassador, of the .ttli of In cnnsvg ince of the return of Mr. Taylor to Cass'., he (the Amha , ...tdoi.) should enter into no fxrthel negociation, but Nv otild instantly p.tck up his effeAs, and depart. 8.

" To his aolent desire for military achievements—his pas sion to he rs corded in history under the title of a Conqueror— ihe limits o France, already so much enlarged, and defined by sacred Tirane:, still appear too narrow. He wishes to unite, in his own hands, all the ties upon which depends the balance of Europe. The fairest fruits of exalted civilisation, every species of happiness which a nation can enjoy, and which to solts groin peace and concord; every thing, which, even by himself, as the Suvereien of a great cisiliaed people, must be held dear and estimable, is to be destroyed by a Wall of Con quest; and this the ;Jester part of Europe is to be compelLd to submit t.. the laws and mandstes of France. This project ennounces all that the Emperor of Frauee has performed, th:eatenel, or promised.

Paris papers, of th• Bth, and Dutch papers, of the I4th, wer• received yesterday.—An article from Strasburgh, of the kh, says, " Our army continues to advance; the left wing has passed the Inn near iliatiaan, and driven the Russians before them. 'l'Le Russians have received orders to fall back on Lentz, to wait fur the second army ; but it is more probable that the French will be at Lentz, and even at Vienna, before the second Russian army can reach the Theatre of War."
