Ilr a the Continent, the want of rest which is powers throughout Europe, the incorruptibility of the Ministers of the powers bordering upon France, which alone could engage us in a war truly serious, have rendered surierfllatuts a part of the predations Ifre bad taken. In elle& our relations with Prussia, and ill the EleAors of Germany, are more and more nmibtble ; our relations with Austria are satisfac tory I we are on good terms with Denmark, and we have adopted the system of paying no attention to the steps of the King of Sweden. We are in the best intelligence with the Porte, Spain, Portugal, and the United States of America. This is the reality of the present situation of things, and what should be confronted with the different Turnouts spread by certain men interested to alarm several classes of citizens. This day the following Swedish note was deliver ed to the Dietaturn NOTE. "In consequence of the note prrionted to the Diet by the Mittist..re of Bohemia and Austria, contenting the lliiieduary Irapcial Dignity in the }louse of Austria, the undersigned harorder to declare : " That though llis Swedish Majesty sincerely participates in every thing which may contribute to the advantage or grati fication of Ho Imperial Maicaty ; vet, that as a guarantee of the Cementation of the Empire, and esiwei.dly as a State of the Empire, he anti:civet! this so be an oh:icet which ought not to b.! merely notified to, but made a subject of by the Diet, that all the hfenthers of it might have an oppnr tunny to give their opinions, as found 1 iiit the Coimipattoit of the German Empire.

Our Gazette of this day cnntains the following article from Paris, dated the 13.; instant : " The fear that the flames of war may break out on the Continent, has made a disadvantageous impression on our funds. Our • Government has already turned its attention to the means of taking ,the strongest Measures in case of necessity. Since yesterday there has been much talk of a Senatui Coasalirm, for a Conscription of 2th),000, or, ac cording to others, 360,000 men. " If we may credit the reports in circulation, some changes will soon take place in the Ministry.

Yesterday sailed the French privateer, detained for some time at the new Lizarette, after first giving up the guns and gun-powder, and other property taken on board the English ship, ad I)..nd.i.'itta, until the validity of this capture is finally determined upon. Notwithstanding that the privateer has sail ed, the French flag continued on board the English ship. It however was lost by a particular accident. At midnight, we experienced a terrible thunder storm, and the first flash of lightning struck down the French flag, on board the English ship. Even the mast received some damage, and one sailor on board w.,s burned on his arm, by the same flash of lightning. VIENNA, AUG. 25. It is now determined upon, that our Conn, du ring the present war between L• - ngi.and and France, will continue the sttilest neutrality.

Our er.tirt has already received official informa tion concerning the new Hereditary Imperial dig nity in the House of Austria. THE 44 FROM THE HAMRURGII MAIL. ••••••••. PARIS, SEPT. t. At the jeweller's, Bienne, in the street St. Honore, are seen the Sceptre, the Hand of Justice, the Crown, the Golden Spurs, and the Laurel Chaplet, which are to be used at the Emperor's coronation. The last is entirely new, of gold, and beautiful work manship. The other pieces have formerly been used at the coronation of Charlemagne. The sceptre, remarkable for its antiquity, is near five feet long ; over it is a globe, and a likeness of Charlemagne. The chief town of the department of La Vendee, Roche sur Yon, has obtained the Emperor's per- mission to be tailed in future the town of Na poleon. As preparations are now made in the church of Notre D 'me, which indicate that some great cere loony will be performed there, little doubt remains that the Emperor's coronation w:11 take place in that lurch. and not at Rheims. The Ecglish Colonel, Craufurd, who was clan steroutsly wounded in Franconia, during the Lit: war, and from the effeet of which wound he has now been perfeßly cured at Barnes, has settled an annual rent of one thousand lines on the poor of that pate. 'The camps on our coast present a beautiful prospect They look like towns, and have streets which bear the names of French heroes, with statues, &c. One can write with the same cer tainty to a soldier in camp as if he was gum.- tered in a city ; as for example—" To Monsieur —. a so!dier in the Joubert Street. No. 90, by the Bridge of Napoleon ; or to Monsieur —, a corporal, in the Street Xlcber, on the corner of the Street Dessaix ;" you may be sure the letters arrive as they are diraled. Several coffee-hous s, and bil ' Bard rooms, are open night and day ; and in every camp are one, two, or three theatres, open every 'sight. Ends 1 egimc3t has its garden, where vege tables are cultivated to perfetlion ; and in the neigh Isourhood of each camp are public gardens, under the name of Tivoli, Frescati, &c. where parties meet and walk every evening, are served with ices, Ste. hear concerts, and see fire-works. In the camp of General Oudinot, near Ostend, two pyramids, in honour of the Emperor, are erelled ; and in a garden adjoining, is an artificial mountain, called the mountain of St. Gothard. Hardly an evening passes, that there are not either private balls given, or public balls announcer'. Varc is jos! is mute / than aver the order of the day. t connracter, AUGUST V. According to report, the Russian sqoadror., which is to cruise for some time in the German Sea, will afterwards pass the winter here. • 1 Hitherto no Russian ships have passed the Sound; , but it is certain that three ships of the line, two fri t gates, and one cutter, will sail very soon for the German Sea. Never have we seen here Russian ships better equipped and manned. The French ChArre dr Afraires, at Stockholm. has long ago presented the Serra/or Cemarakar, which de , dared the Imperial dignity hereditary in the Bona parte family; but has hitherto received no answer.

Aug. 104.6 LON DON, TUESDAY, StpICYRCR Important dispatches were yesterday received from India, by Government, and the East India Company. The messenger came overland, and, we are concerned to state, b: jogs accounts of the renewal of hostilities in the East. The Mahratta Chief, HoLMAa,who remained neutral during the late contest, has, since the signing of the Treaty of Peace between the British G,oternment and the Mahratta powers, with whom we were lately at war, shewn evis:ent marks of dissatisfanion. lle had infringed itpoa the bmindarie: of our territory, and war has been declared against this hastilt. Chief. When tke accounts left Bombay, the Bri tish army had already taken the field. We have not yet learned the divisions of the army that are employed on this important occasion ; but we hare no doubt, the Commander-in-Chief, and Governor- General will display equal knowledge in the present, as they did in the last, which redounded so much to the honour of the British charalier. Private letters st.tte, that the army were in high spirits, and they hoped soon to Crith this last effort of French iatrigne. The dispatches left Bombay upon the 7th of May, on which day Gcn , :ral %Vsi.t.Est.cv set out for Ranch, to take the command of the army. The Merchants of Bomb w:e giving, upon the occasim, a very considerable pecuniary aid to Government. We yesterday received another ilamburgh Mail, with :etters and papers to the 5:.h, from which we have male several interesting extrans. 'they will L.

We were soon informed by oar Ambas sador at Berlin, Count MrorvcaNteit, " that what ever changs.• were determined on in France, would be approves! of in Prussia, being regarded there as mere f,rmnbli•., as long as BONAPARIE continued at the head of the French Government." " Before the Court of St. Petersbnrgh had time to answer our question on this stahjL a, a courier brought to it an accouut of Bus/ AP Aar es invasion of Germany, and nmrd^r of the Duke of Esclurs, The coolness .hefine subsisting between Russia anJ France was now increased, and a proposal was made by A LEI ANDEA 1. to Fnarstus 11. of uniting with Russia, England, Turkey, and Sweden, and at tempting to se a limit to But. A PASTE'S crimes and encroachments. This proposal of Russia was se conded by the English and Swedish Ambassadors here : as bath Russia and Prussia were arming, our Court ordered three large encampments, being de sirous to be Prepared to repulse all attacks made upon its irlependence. During this interval, the French Ambassador, CNA MPIGN Y, received courier upon courier, mostly confidential officers of Boss rapt . ' is guard, some carrying offers of aggrandise ment, whets threats of invasion, but all intriguing with our Ministers, as well as with our Courtiers, distributing presents to some and g:eat promises to all. The proposal of an hereditary Austrian Emperor came from TALLEVRAND; but our Cabinet desired, at the same time, an hereditary Empire over Ger many, which the Cabinet of St. Cloud strongly op posed. The Em Patina and his family, to get rid of all those troublesome intriguers, and important intrigues, left his Capital for Baden, and every thing seemed to indicate an alliance with Russia, and the formation of a new league against France, when BONAPARTE ' S favourite aid-de-camp, General Lanus ros, arrived here with a kind of altimatuw, which required an immediate answer, and in threat ening language declared, " that 300,000 French men should, before three months, be at our gates, arid the King of Pstssra be immediately elected a king of the RomA ?C3, if our Cabinet liesirttell any longer to salute the Corsican an Emperor of the French: offal-Log, on the other hand, an augment ation of territory, with Belgrade, and other forts upon the Turkish frontiers, it we either joined in an alliance wigs France and Prussia, or only con tinued neuter." . 4. Many great and unexpected obstacles had besides been met with in our negotiations with Russia and England. Our court WAS, therefore, on the ere of a wtr wi:h France, without any alliance with other states, and had no other choice left, hut to like the determination it has dons ; a determina tion equally didated by policy and prudence. By it time is at least gained; and if, during the next winter, a general pacification cannot be be gilt about through the mediation Verne Comet, se deAtred Pram?, we will, at least, be better prepared then than we are now, to at as circumstances may re• quire ! I cannot conclude without mentioningacommon repot t hero of Prussia and France having offered to guaranty to our Court the proposed acquisitions on the Turkish frontiers, if, in its turn, would guaranty with Fiance, to Prussia, the acquisition of Han. over and Swedish Pomerania, and, with Prussia, to France, the incorporation of the Batavian Repub lic.
