It is reported that a new corps of Insurgents, which is said to be considerable, has departed from Berne, under the command ofWnvrrEvlLLE, taking the road for the Cantons of Fribourg and Faa. BASIL, OCT. 3.—The Confederation between the smaller Cantons and' Berne has been signed.— They all agree to use every means in their power to drive those who constituted the Helvetic Govern ment from the Swiss Territory. The other Can tons have . been requested to concur in this Confe deration, and to furnish Troops. The Forces of the Insurgents are daily augmenting, and their Army now amounts to 20,00 d men. The ancient form of Government has been established in most of the Aristocratic Cantons. The great and small Councils have been established, with all the Rights which they exercisea before the year 1798; but it has been thought proper to entrust provisionally the direaion of General Affairs and of Government to particular Committees. RATISBON, SEPT. 28.—Note from His excel lency Baron HUGtL, the Imperial Plenipotentiary, to Citizen LAFoR.r.T, Minister Extraordinary of the French Republic, dated 26th September. " The Declaration delivered at Ratisbon in the name of the Mediating Powers, contains a serious and unmerited reflection upon the delays which took place in theassembling of the Diet. Nis IMPERIAL MAJESTY therefore thinks he owes it td himself, to sheen that the delays are not attri- butable to Him. Ills MAJ E. STY willingly submits to the judgment of Europe, whether he can be taxed with Injustice or Ambition, for having insisted upon the full and entire Indemnities which were stipulated for in the Treaty of Luneville, for his august Brother."- The Note then proceeds to deny, in the strongest terms, that it ever was the intention of HIS IMP E k 1 AL MAJ-EST V to deprive the ELECTOR of BAVARIA of his dominions ; that he never wished to obtain any part of Bavarza as an Indemnity for the GRAND Dt tE of TUSCANY, except by the concurrence of the ELECTOR, who was to be indemnified in Swabia. It concludes with stating that " His hIPERIAL MAJESTY has already given every as- surance with. regard ,to the City of Passau, which tauld be expeEled from his justice and moderation. He is ready to give up that City to whoever, by the final arrangement of the Indemnities, it may ap_ pear legitimately to belong." A similar Note was transmitted to the Russian Envoy. The Baron de HtJGEL, the Plenipotentiary Of His IMPERIAL MAJESTY, transmitted yesterday to the Ministers of France and Russia, two different Notes, in answer to those Which were transmitted to him by those Ministers on the sth of September. The Notes relate to the Indemnities of the DUKE of TUSCANY, and the occupatido of the City of Pas_ sat. As to the latter, it is said that His MA jEs±y has giVen to that City - every assurance that .they may exped from his justice and moderation; and that he is ready to deliver up the City to him who, by the legal and definitive arrangement of the Indemnities, shall be recogniied as the legitimate Proprietoi. Citizen _BAcHER has communicated to the Diet the Documents concerning the Peace with the Porte and the DEY of ALGIERS. The Deputation is expeaed to receive in the course of the week, a Supplerrient to the Plan of In_ demnities. NOTE OF CITIZEN LA FORET, Minister Plenipotentiary from tine French Republic to the Diet of the German Empire, addressed to His Excellency .the Baron De Hoc Er., Plenipotentiary from His I MYER I A L .MAJESTY to the Deputation cif the EMpire. The Undersigned Minister Extraordinary frcirti the French Republic to the Diet of the Germanic Empire, haS received the Note which His Excellency the Baron de Hu cast., Pleripotentiary of His ImPEtria MAirsry, did him the honour to tranSmitib him yetterday, in ansiver to that transrhitted by the Undersigned on the 13th of September last. He thinks it his duty to refer immediately to his Government. and to abstain even from recalling tliedates which, in placing the fails in their natural order, would throw light upon many points. He seizes this opportunity to renew to His Excellency the assurance of his high consideration. (Signed) " Patisbon, Ltept. i 7, ±Boz." " LANORET. The Deputation of the Empire held yesterday its tenth Sitting. The Direfforial Minister gave the most precise explanatiOn, as to what he had been charged with relative to the means of making some provision respeding those persons who will lose their constitutional existence in the secularized Countries, and opened a Protoiol to receive the Votes upon the subjeti. The same Minister also classed in an exa6l manner, the Debts whiCh btirthen the Countries destined to form the Indemnities At the same Sitting a question was put upon the demand made by the LAI4I7GRAv'E 6f HisSt-CASSEL for a Supplement to the Indemnities which devolve to him. The Directorial Minister' spoke very forcibly against the Demand : he specified, in a de tailed ttanner, the value and the produce of the Mvetc.e which the LANDOR AVE Would aelbire, compared with the 'losses Which he had sustained. The result of the Votes were bufairociable to the demand, end it was resolved to inform the Ministers Of the Mediating Powers Upon the subjea. STipyrcAini, SEPT. appears that France and England still insist Upon Russia and Prussia guaranteeing the Island of Malta to the Order of Si. John of Jerusalem, and the Ministeri of those two Powers have received orderS from their respec tive Govtrnments to take in concert the necessary steps at Berlin and Petersbargh, and td obtain that guarantee. VIENNA, SEPT. is said here, that Citi zen LAtißtsTort has declared at Ratisbon, that if the business of the IndemnitieS was not settled in two months, the French GovernMent would find itself under the necessity of sending ido,Ooo men into Germany, to be maintained at the expence of the Empire, in order to carry into execution the Plan of Indemnities agreed Upon by the Mediating Powers. Letters were yesterday received from Gibraltar. The intelligence they bring respelling Algiers has already been, in a great measure„inticipated,by accounts received through the Paris journals. One circumstance, howeVer, is mentioned ; which, if true, has been carefully Concealed in the French Official, accounts, and which renders the present in telligence very interesting.—The French, it is said, are to have two of the best Algerine ports ceded to them : a circumstance that'certainly de serves the particular Attention of this Country, be fore entirely evacuating the island of Malta.—We subjoin the Letters as we have received them, and %sithout offering any comment on their contents : " GIBRALTAR SEPT. 1.-By the last accounts from Toulon, the French arc colleCting an immense army in that neighbourh oo d, (i t i s sa id , fif ty thou sand men,) tinder pretence of an expedition against Algiers. Strong apprehensions seem to be justly enter tained by our Government, concerning the real destination of this powerful Force, as orders haVe been received here, within -these few days, to de tain all the ships of war that were on their way to England from any parr of the Mediterranean; and in consequence the Renown and Thames, from Malta, have both been stopped ; the former had Troops on board, which she landed here; in conse quence, two days ago. " On the orders being received here, the Tr;:m1)1 , , commanded by Sir ROBERT BARLOW, was ordered to cruize in the Gut, for the purpose of sending in any Men of War that might happen to be passing. " By the last accounts from Malta, by the Re: nowa, the GRAND MASTE it, and Neapolitan TrOops were shortly expected there. " Six months more provisions are daily eXpeAed from England, for the whole of the squadron here. " Both the Fleet. and Garrison are in high health, and abundantly Supplied with fresh pro . vissons." " SFpx. r 7 have just received the at. counts of the French having concluded a Peace With the DEY of ALCIER.i, on terms highly honourable and advantageous to the former Power. " The DE of ALGIntS, intimidated by the threats held out to him by the Freiich General who was sent there, has agreed to every thing demanded l,y BoN'APARTE. The two Algerine Captains who were concerned taking the French vessels, are to be severely punished ; all claims of yearly presents in future are done away; and two of their begt harbourS are to be ceded to France, to be fortified and garrisoned by that Power. " One of the placed to be given up by the Treaty is Lonna, an excellent harbotir, aboUt 7o leagues to the Eastward of Al g i ers , ekaftly oppo site t t i t h e isl an d of Sardinia,' and which, in the event . of any future attenipts of the French Upon Egypt; will be a 'plaCe of infinite importance to thetn.__lndeed, every theasure lately adopted by the French in this part of the world seems to have that objed in view. " It is now certain, by the lngt accounts from Malta, that the new GR N M.4.sT" Ea, and the Neapolitan Troops, will shortly arrive there, as very hlldnarra e has been heldito the Court of Naples by the Flitsr C.ors4, on accbtint of their delay in not sending the Neapolitan Troops .to Malta ; and it now appears to be deter Mined, con trary to Our expedatians, that Malta is to be immediately evacuated by the British whenever the GRANTS MASTER arrives. " Governor CAMERON and his family, from that place, passed us a few days ago in the lijdta Fri gate for England. '" This Garrison has acquired a high state of health since His Royal Highness the DUKE of KENT assumed the conimand, owing to the unremitting attention he has bestowed on the sobriety and dis cipline of the Troops, who now behave with the greatest order and regulatity. " The usual mode.adopted by His Royal High ness of punishir4 offenders, has generally been by solitary confinement, or obliging them to Work a certain number of days, without pay, on the new roads ,which.are making, and which• has been ,at ended with the most salutary consequences." Last Sunday ,evening, between ten and eleven o'clock, the hbnse which 'encloieS the large steam engine erected at Gravesend, for Clearing the works of the tunnel of water; was discovered to be pn fire, which, notwithstanding every exertion was made to extinguish it; burnt very furiously, and consumed nearly all the •timber work in the interior of the house. Some tow being set on fire_ in the upper story of the building (supposed by the carelessness of the workman who had the catcof ►he engine), was the cause of the above disaster, which will occasion the Company a considerable expellee and loss of time. to repair ; this is the more to be lamented as the . whole of. the works were in a prosperous state. ec a ; • ;, EATEROPP MURRAY': 11/11V,AfRUPTCi`: ; •.

There had been a prior nieeting for • the same .putost; but it adjourned on ac. 7 count of the abseil - cc of is 6of the Aesignees ; Id fart no Solicitor or responsible Person was pi - e.edt to pay the Conimissioners their aceLtorried fees'. The Bankrupt y esterday appeared, and profesSed himself ready to pass his acectints, if he couid legally Called upon so to do. Mr. AdAit, his Counsel, insisted that the Corii_ mission was in its foundation and principle defec tive, and would be tiiimately .;et aside ; and Con sequently that if the Bankitiptdid pass egardina, tion, he sh o Uld do sounde,r a protest that lie lasi no right to pass it: He observed too; that there was no regular Solieitot- 7 -that Mr. Stoke s ; Wh o ailed as such, was not duly appointed. In answer to the latter objeetion, Mr. Stokeit urged, that he was duly appointed; and that his ap pointment appeared upon the face of the proceed jugs. • The Comthissionei.S desired to inspeft the pro, ceeding,s, to ascertain the fatcf ; but it seemed they h: , .d been impounded by the LORD CHAN 4:;ELLOR i i upon the hearing of a Petition lately preferred to supersede the Bankruptcy. A Messenger was, sent to die BankrUpt's :: - .)ffiee; to inquire ‘vnether they could be seen. The Clerk of the Office returned for answer, that after the Chancellor had ordered papers to be impotinded, they could not be sheWn to any one. The Coirimi§sioners said they should consider Mr. Stokes as the lePitimatc Soiicitor; Unless the contrary was ptoved. It was then Objeded that only 'one Of the Assigneeg was present; his name was Mr. Wrin - ht. In r e ply to this obj e ctio n , M r . StokesproveShe hadi served notices upon Mr. M or ri so n and M r . trieker,' the other Assignees, teriuiring their attendance ; and he stated, that the Bankrupt had told hint they never would attend. The Bankrupt denied ever having said so ; and Mr. Stokes and Mr. Wright Armed that he had, Dtiring these altercations; a Mr. Wood applied to prove a debt of sol. 'seeltred Upon two notei' drawn by a Mr. SeWell, and accepted by the Bank rnpt., The consideration was for gOodS pnrchased by SeWell for the use of the Bankrupt. The Baek. rupt said h e never had the goods, and that he was under age when he accepted the bills. The CO11:... missioners rejei'ted the demand. The Commissioners then asked M. WrightWhe— titer the Bankrupt had ever given him any infer_ oration as to his property ? Mr.Wtight that he never had ; that he knew not Where 16 find him, or whet:. to dired to him ; that he had n 6 fixed place of residence;. that with regard to liis friend Mr. S7ewell, whose name had br!eti ibex: tioned, he lived 'in a house so barricaded that all access to it was iMpradicable—it was its short a kind of ,Ilee,7i.sei/ Ailirie—impervions to en_' trance.

Th e Bankrupt d7elared that he was as public as any man; and that a Irttrr direat:i to his it:iori:i ) would be sure to reach hint: Mr. koila then remarked that another Petition had been presented to the Chancellor to supersede the Commissioo, and thtit an Order would be made for hearing it the next Term. Another. W,i;enger wait sent to die Chancellor's Oflice to know whether such an order - was in contemplation. In the interim the altercation bet Ween the parties continued. I he.- Bankrupt produced an necovn tot' his proper to the Commissioners, but at first objected to its being sheWn to Mr. Wright, the Assignee. . The Com rnissioners observed, that such an oljedion was ex tremely indecent and unbecoming. Accordingly it was delivered to- Mr. Wright, Various other dis putes arose, and a Messenger was dispatched after the-other Messenger. The CommisSioners waited, till past two o'clock. What information they re ceived we know not ; but the result was, they ad joUrned the Meeting till next month. 'The Baronet's servant-maid attended to prove a little debt of 31. for wages, but was told she was too late. The girl scented much hurt ; but the So.. licitor kindly endeavotired to comfort her; by as suring h6r that if she did prove it, she never would receive a shilling in the pound. . • Between the hours of ten and eleven o'clock ort Saturday night; a Gentleman %vas attacked by two footpads in Chiswell-street; ore of whom insista on his stopping, whiCh was refused ; he was then struck so violent a blow on his left eye, by the other; with an iron weapon; that it is feared he will lose the sight ; 'and had it not been for a MreWood, of Foster-lane; who was accidentally passing Would, in all probability; have been murdered. It was not in the Counting-hotise of Vlr. PirFn?E, of Mark-liine, brit in that of Mr. PArrtir., of Idol_ lane, that the Clerks were robbed by a man who held pistols to them, as stated in yesterday's Paper. On Sunday morning, between one and two o'clock, the house of Mr. Baxter, the - Angel and Crown, near Wells-row, Islington, was broke open the villains broke two windows, which were cased by inside thuttei . s plated wi:h iron : this frttstrated their views there ; but they went to the third win. dow, where they succeeded in making an'entrance, and stole a number of articles.
