LONDON, SATURDAY, SEPTLMSCI 28. Government, we understand, received intelligence last night, that the arc' on of BAVARIA has joined the coalition against France, and ordered his Army, consisting of 30,000 men, to join the Aus trian forces. A Treaty has been signed between His ImezeiAr. MA.JasTi and the ELECTOR, in which the former pledges him.elf not to con sent to any Peace, in which the interests of the latter are not secured, and the integrity of his dominionsinaintained. This intelligence, we con fess, is to ins unexpe&ed, as it is gratifying. We had been led to suppose, from the language of the French Official Notes, that the ELECTOR of BAV RI a was inclined towards the interests of France ; we have been, however, most agreeably deceived, and the decisive and energetic conduit of the Court of Munich, affords us the stronge.t ground to hope that its example will be followed by all the other States that compose the Germanic Body. We inserted, yesterday, the Retcript of the A i.s. TRI AN IMPCNIAL MINISTCR, in answer to M. BACW ER'S Note, to the Diet of Ratisbon.We also gave an abridgment of the Diplomatic Correspondence preceding it, between the Governments of Russia. Austria, and France. Our abridged account con tained all the essential points of the Correspondence, and, we have no doubt, proved satisfsetory to the generality of our readers; but, as the grounds of the present Continental War cannot be too Nell triderstood, and it is from these Papers posterity will judge of its justice and necessity, we hope that the magnitude of the question will he a sufficient apology fur our insertion of than this day, at full length, in our preceding cola':;.:;. Yesterday, we received New-Ycrk Papers to the 18th ult. The fever wh' .h had begun to appear in that city, had ceased a the date of these Papers, one of which, of the 15. contains a Proclamation im the `;:avon,annou.scing t''e fan, and authoris ing the renew , t!ot the customary intercomse between the city and the adjacent country. A Repot? f-nm the Board of t i..l:th of Providence (Rhode of the 9th ult. also sates, nat orly two persons had died of the fever since the 2d, and that n case WAS then known to exist. A letter fr .m New Haven, of the Bth, states, that several families, which had left that city on account of the alarm excited by the late fever, have returned home. These papers do not contain any other articles worth notice. It was reported yesterday, that a Proclamation for the Dissolution of Parliament will a:pear in this night's Gazelle. and that the writs have been for some time ready to be issued. We have good reason to believe that this report is unfounded. A letter from Hamburgh, of the 20th, states, that the advanced guard of the Austrian army ac tually entered Munich on the evening of the 14th instant, and, by Proclamation, endeavoured to set the citizens at ease as to the proteftion of property. The Newfoundland Cons oy sailed on Wetsesday night from Portsmouth, under convoy of the thrum armed ship. The reinforcement going out to the Mediterra nean, consists of five regiments, of which the 42d and 78th Highland regiments have arrived at Ports mouth. The Dizabeib, Casa, of Dublin, from Rarbadoes, is arrived at Bristol --She parted from the fleet on the sth instant, in lat. 59. long. 49. in a gale ; eight others parted at the same time. 1 he Favourite, Sr a ANNOCK, from Demerara, for Liverpool, kas put back to Demerara, with the loss of her rudder. The Turk, Pi.vst, from Pctersburgh, and a fleet, which sailed from Elsinore on the 16th inst.ast, are arrived off Lowestoffc. Several Canoes, like those invented by Sir Stoney' Smizu, are to be built without delay. His Royal Highness the Duke of YollE is expeteled at Chatham, on Monday nest, to take the command of the Ist Battalion of the Ist Regiment of Guards, to which he has been appointed, since the death of the Duke of Gr.ouctsz - _ The Royal Marine Artillery, at Chatham, prac tice the management of launches, fitted with a large carronade on the bow : they are likely to become very expert, and prove a valaable acquisition to the service of their country. The Vidualling_ Office on ' Th ursday contracted with the house of Boots, FRENCH, Bo ',sows., and CANNING, for the whole of the supplies of Irish salted beef and pork for the next year. The contra& has been taken low, in consequence of the supply being exclusively to come from one house. Lord C•IT I.IIIEACH is to represent the Commons of Ireland. Counsellor I lawr tains, Member for Down-Patrick, is to be appointed Esclieato.r a Ul ster, to make room for the Noble Secretary. It is, at length, settled, that di:? Colonel of a cer tain Militia Regiment, and an Alderman of the City of London. is to be tried by a Court Martial, on several charges brought against him by a Captain in his Corps. The trial is t. , ) take place at Chelsea College, as soon as a sufficient number of General Militia Officers can be conveniently assembled.

The part of SersAb, by Master DAWSON, only six rears of age. This novelty produced the fullest house of any, except on Mr. BANNISTER'S benefit. His performance was received with hnzhaing, and continued applause. As His MAJESTY was leaving the I heatre, he sent for the boy, and asked him se veral questions. This morning early, and after breakfast, His MA. JEs r v took an airing on horseback. In the latter, he was accompanied by Princesses AUGUSTA and AMELIA. Princess MARY, attended by Miss Pr.

COVENT.OARDIN. Last night this house was fashionably attended, to witne‘s the first performance, this season, of the Opera of The English Fleet. The piece has expe rienced material alterations, in the cast of characters. The parts cf Vnirntine and Katharine, iu which Mr. Bits iia or and Madame STORAGE shone so conspi cuously, during the last season, were filled by Mr. HILL and Miss Ty it tit. Every unbiassed speaator must certainly have felt the loss of the exquisite melody of BaatrAst. The exertions of Mr. t ItLL were, however, justly entitled to praise, and of coarse received from a British audience their full reward. In the beautiful air of Toueg Henry, and also in the duet of All's Well, with Mr. Isci.cooN, he was particularly successful, and loudly cncorsd. Miss Tv iiea rises in public favour. In the last Act she introduced the admiled and familiar sung of 0 Dear, what vill become of usc? and was encored Mr. INcLeocir's voice was in full tone ; and Mr. MUNDEN excited much laughter. The dance at Derma and Kattilans followed, with excellent efil.a. Their NI witst es and the Fs INCISSLS leave Wey mouth, on Friday next, for Kew. On the Wednesday following, his Mai.r-ry is expelled to :lold a Levee for the Foreign Ministers and Nobility. The ROYAL FAMILY will return to town earlier this year than usual.

Colonel LIMON and Mr. CA I.VaRT, yesterday spotted a new cabriolet, built in Bond -street, which they drove tandem through the principal streets at the west end of the town. It only weighs four hundred weight. On Wednesday, J. HULKt3, Esq M. P. for Rochester, sailed down the river, for an excursion, in his pleasure-boat, with a large party of his Con stituents. At Sheerness, they were met, according to appointment, by .1. BAKri, Esq. M. P. for Can terbury, and a number of the Citizens. The two parties partook of a dinner, provided by Mr. Houtz:, and passed the day with the greatest conviviality. A Deel was fought, on the 15th of August, at six o'clock. between Mr. ENOCH M LYLES. of K.exanchia, and Mr. JUNK F. Bowie, of Pisca taway, Maryland, at Jonesom's Spring, about six miles fro.n Akxandria, on the Virginia side of the Pctoraac.

DOVER, SL t. 4d. This morning, at ten o'clock, we had a fame! Boat Race, between two 4-oared boats, called ..er r s which were rowed by eight picked men, among / the hovellers, who are considered the best rowers in England, and the most expert in managing ev , ry description of small craft. The wager was agreed upon betwe , n the owners of the boats, Messrs. Goodman and Mills, over a can of grog, last night, and was Ix the large amomit of a leg r,t mutton and trimmings. This species of amusement, heing very singular in this quarter, attrafted a great rio d of speCtators ; and, long before the boats st a rl.,,l, the piers at each side of the harbour were fill of company, c insisting of mrst of the people of fashion in this part of the world ; among la Iran a majority of elegant females prevailed, which, rpm the fineness of the morning, and the white morning roxbryie of the ladies, contrested with their evening s ible, that we have been so accustomed to for wine time, contributed '0 render the tout (nrcnade, highly pleasing, and charmingly interesting. The boats started in, signal given, from the mouth of the harbour. a:,cl were to row across the hav to a place c riled Laog ton, under the eastern cliffs beyond the Castle, and about two miles and a half from the hat hour ; various bets were made on each side, and as much anxiety and interest wa.. displayed for the event, as ever appeared at Newmarket. "the nsmes of the boats were, the Chira,e, Goodman, owner, and the For, Miles, owner ; they were accompanied dur ing the race by two ten-oared genies to see fair play. At setting out, the Far got a little the start of the Chaore, Which was considered all fair; and by the time they got neat a-breast of the Carts (the residence of a near relation of Sir Sidney Smith), the For had shot se far a-head of the Chance, that the latter gave in, considering the point unattainable. In this short row, it is astonishing what skill and aftivity was displayed. Alt o aelt the galleys are by far the fastest sailing hews we have, yet the sniftness with which these naps cut through the water, was almrst incredible. Tnis iittie experiment has given rise to an emulation, from which various bets were procosed on a variety rif other boats, so that we may cape& some consider able spot t in this way. The wind has again come abnist to the S.W. and S. S W. with which we have also got a total change of weather ; and this day has been as SlA;try AS Any we have had during the autumn. In consequieiee of this change, the several colliers which have been in o,e Roads for some days, set sail for the Eastwards the 'lbw frigate also left the barbaur for the Downs; and the Fecivis gun-brig took a stretch across to the French coast, nn a cruise, leaving the Danish ship, which she bad detained (as mentiened in my letter of yesterday), at anchor in these Roads; the American schooner, also remains under similar circumstances. The I cop:rd cutter, of this harbour, came down from the Dna ns into these roads, this mornings tide; she had been as far as the Nore, with two ships and r quarantine. The / 4 / 1 01.iie frigate is come up thcre from Dungeness ; but it is 0!e Leopard frigate which has the broad-pendant flying, and is supposed to Le the ship devilled for the reception of the gallant Sidney Smith, who, I understand, arrived this day at Deal, and will immediately proceed on board his flag ship, to take the command of the Boulogre squa dron. lie was expeCted here ; but, it is now sup posed, he will steer doeCtly for the French coast Great apprehensions are entertained here of the depredations, which, it is expelled the French priva teers from Calais, Graveliaes, Boulngne, &c. nt.ty commit on our homeward-bound merchentinen dur ing the long nights. This is the more probable, as they can so easily slip in and out; hut mote partici'. larly, as it is the ouly way they will venture to vie cede us. humanity towards an enemy softens the miseries of war, and the exertion seldom grits unrewarded. To record an instance of dignified gratitude in an enemy, in return for humanity towards his country, re:mires, therefore, no apology. Captain Nlvuos., s.f His Islast:sr?. live ship Blanche, in a letter, dated Lisbon, the 7th instant, says, " I have been treated with the most moiled attention, by the French Ambassador, General J ENOT.—At the second massacre of the French inhabitants at St. Domingo, I was fortunate eanugh to save many of those misrrahle people, devoted to destru&ion, and I sent tlierr. to General FI V IAND, at Santa, St. I).nreligo, tin which I.e wrote me a strong letter ro thanks.—After the Blanche had struck, this letter was s e en by the Cali tain of La Topa:e, and he mentioned it to General JLaOT, on our arrival h-re, who i,ionediatehi gave orders that I should be initautty liKzrated airtboa: er chaoge, and yesterday gave the passports to all my officers and crew." Captain NUDGE, with the assistance of the Hon. Mr. BIIRCILEY (one of his TniAsillpfflen), had happiness p....4..ate0 to get WI, amongst others, Ma , dame VARRET T. who had een her mother and two sisters butchered ; and t? cont y het t bet father, at New Orleans. v V P'"
