L NDO N, NOVEMBER z, iSoz. Tx Is morning a' Dvich mall arrived, but it brought no intelligence whatever. . The last Letters from Gibraltar state, that the communicltion between the Spaniards and the Gar rison had been shut up by orders from the Spanish Court ; and the Commandant at St. Roque had been changed, in consequence of a suspicion, that he was too intimate with certain Officers of the Garrison. Three Troop's are to be added, in case of neces sity, to the Horse Brigade of the Royal Artillery. An achlitiona! number of Dragoocs have been or dered to Nottingham. A Letter from Berve is inserted in the 25, , zi!eur of the 23;:i ulr. which states that the Diet of Schwitz has pronounced its own dissolution, and that ,hat the French call the Insurgent Troops, are separating and returning to their re , i)eetive Cantons. -General NaY is appointed Envoy Ex traordinary and •Minister Pienipotentiary to the fielltetic Republic ; in the room of Citizen VEEN!. WAC ) Who has repaired to Paris to give information respeaing the state of S witzerland. On the other hand, amounts by a different channel, state the Diet of ~Vebwitz to be still sitting, and to have refused ;o submit to the commands of France. We still sec no reason, however, to alter the opinion we have already formed upon the subject, that a compromise lias been entered into between the Swiss and the CONsUL. Lord ST. VINCENT has in contemplation'a Plan for paying all the Pensioners of the Chest at Chat_ ham at their respeetive homes, without requiring them to make their appearance once in three years at Chatham ; by which those unfortunate mutilated seamen will be rescued from the harpies who have hitherto plundered them of nearly half the gratuities and pensions given to them by a generous Country. We understand the Storekeeper of Yard, the Clerk of the Cheque of Sheerness Yard, and the Clerk of the Rope Yard at Woolwich, were removed from their employments during the Inc visitation of the Duck Yards ; and the follow_ ing Promotions have taken place in consequence: Mr. GAINO<, the Store-keeper of Woolwich, is appointed Clerk of the Cheque at Sheerness ; Mr. BURNETT, Chik of the Survey at Woolwich, tacceeds Mr. GAINER, and Mr. TYSON (Lord NELsoN'S Secretar)), succeeds Mr. BuktitElT ; Mr..A..uslN, Clerk of the Survey of Deptford, is appointed the Storekeeper at Chathain ; Mr. NE L - sox (brother to the Secretary of the Navy Board) Clerk of the Rope-yard. at Portsmouth, succeeds Mr. Auu IN; and Mr. Mossy (son of tift gallant Captain Mos , c, who tell at the Bartle of Copen hagen), a Clerk in the Transport Office, succeeds Mr. NELSON ; and Mr. J.

The Parisi/7m Belles of Distinetion are now said to be grown isAbaxud of their transparent gauzes.— It is certainly irtiark of di/find/an for a Pell. I sl AN Lay to be ashamed of airy thing. The Gentleman who is said to have had his. name with the addition of M. P. plated on his door, is riot the fitSt MEMIIER of PARLIAMENT Who has made himself known by the help of a little brass.

EXTRACT OP A LETTER PROM HALIFAX, DATED OCTOBER I, 1800. " On the r4th ultimo arrived here His Majesty's ships Gauge:, Goliath, Cumberland, Bellerophon, Vanguard, and Theseus, aftemencuuntering the most boisterous weather on their passage from Jamaica, in which, I am sorry to say, the Goliath had her fore and mizen masts much injured, and many of her men killed and wounded by lightning. The other ships sustained no material 'damage. The Squadron is expetled to leave us again on the loth instant, on their return , to Jamaica. Our Corn. inar.der in Chief, Sir A. NI urc HELL, is here, as he must be every where, in universal esteem, but I am sorry to say, he is confined by a severe fit of the gout." Captain SKENE, of the Determinle, is appointed to the Lapwing ; Capt. BECHER, to the Dettratitiee; and Capt. FANSHAW E, to the Cary fort. On Wednesday a Court Martial was held at Ports mouth, on board the Nepuite, on John Geram, pilot of His Majesty's Ship I',;ms - ne, for having run the said Ship on the, rocks going into St. Aubin's Bay, on the evening of the Bth of September last. The Court agreed :hat the charges had been proved againSt the pilot, and that much blame . was imputable to him, for attempting to enter the Bay of St. Aubin in the night, at a time when she might have remained with safety at sea uptil day light, and did adjudge him to be mukted of all the pay ar.KI allowances due :o him for his services done as a pilot" on board that Ship, and to be imprisoned in the Marshalsea for' three months from that day. On Saturday last an overland Express was re- - ceived via Bussora. Letters by this conveyance are of a date anterior to some which have already come ;o hand. No official answer had been given, by His Highness the PEISHWA to the request of HOLKAR ; but sunnuds have been issued in favour. of the NEUWAI3 . for the Distrils occupied by HOLKAR. Both the contending Chiefs maintain their position at present. ,The rebel Rajah of TAN.. DA hirs resigned the - Villages which belbriged to the Prince's Jagheer. The Neuwab ALLE and th e English Government maintain the best understand. ing. The NEUWAB St0;90111MICS to. levy troops, and another a6tion has,:beefought between LAI. SING and the Rajah of MITKUNDPOOR the loss was excessively heavy on both sides. 7 The;'batteries of Nujmoochleen have again been attacked. The Neu wAa had ordered HEMMUT BAHADOOR _to march with MIRZA KHAN, with orders to raise the siege. MULHA Rio is still in confinement, though not a close prisoner ; it is reported that he will he sent down to Bombay ; most ofhis adherents, following the example of their Chief, have delivered thethselves up to Sir WILLIAM CLARKE, who is taking mea sures to dispossess them of any offensive weapons. Guzerat, and the whole Province seems tranquil: Letters received from Amidabad, dated the 3d of May, say that the Rajahs inhabiting the wild and mountainous part of the Provinces know no-• thing of this Rebel and his Fugitive Army, and that they do not concern themselves about other authorities.' The Armies of 'HOLKAR and SC IN DEAF' are said to amount together to 130.000 men. The PEISHWA is colleBing a force little ;short of too,ooo, and means to await the actual determina tion of the parties. We understand by private letters received from Bombay, overland, that Colonel KIRKPATRICK, the British Resident at the Court of his Highness Nt ZAN! ALL!, Soubah of the Pecan, has concluded a Treal with his Highness at Hydrabad. A Royal Salute was fired on the 1 3th of April last, on the occasion. Some important acquisitions are said to be contained in this Treaty. • We understand from Bombay, that a manufaftory is establishing at that Presidency, for preparing copper sheathing for the use of the shipping which may be built in India.

LANZOLA, Sec. Cen. TREATY BETWEEN THE FRENCH REPUBLIC, PRUSSIA, AND BAVARIA. The Fra sr CONSUL of the French Republic and His Ma jesty the EMPEROR of Russ' A, having offered their media tion for the arrangement of the affairs of Germany, and having made known to the Imperial Diet, by their declaration of the 18th August, 180 z, the Indemnities which they thought should be adjudged to each Prince it: consequence of the 7th Article of the Treaty of Luneville ; His Majesty the KING of PRUSSIA hastened to conform to the Plan presented, and in taking possession of the States adjudged to 'him, confuted himself scrupulously within the limits assigned in the De claration. His Majesty the EMPEROR of GERMANY having, on - his side, announced the intention of causing its (title-rent posses sions to be occupied, Fits Majesty the Kt No of PR s s the Ftesr Coiesue, and the . 1 '.:41'',9.0R. of RUSSI v, have spontaneously hastened to make known to hint, that it was not at all becoming that his Troops should pass the tients assigned by the Declaration, or that they should occupy any Territory but that appointed for the indemnification of the Archduke FERDINAND. Yet, withodt regard either to this Declaration made col. le6lively at Paris to the IMperial Ambassador by the Mi nister of the three Powers, nor to-that which has been made at Berlin by the Count de liAUcwl - re to M. do Sr ADION, - the Austrian Troops have taken possession of Passau, and His Imperial Majesty has informed the Diet by his Plenipo -tentiary, that he would not withdraw his Troops M t less the Countries, occupied by the other Princes, were M likeman ner evacuated, which is an indication that His Imperiat ,Majesty sets no value on the Declaration of the Mediating Powers, ,and that he regards it as void. In consequence, His Majesty the KING of PRUSSIA, and the FIRST -CoNsue of the French Republic, engage them selves to teiterate in concert at Ratisbon and Vienna, their effints, to cause the Plan presented to be adopted by the Germanic Body, and to be ratified in its whole extent, but particularly so far as it.guarantees to the ELICTOR of BA. VARIA the preservation of his Possessions on the Right Bank of the Inn, and as far as it secures to him the Town of Passau. And if, .contrary to their hopes, and their united interpo sition. His Majesty, the EMPEROR, raking advantage of the possession of Passau, should refuse to evacuate it within the period of sixty days-npOinted for:the deliberation of the Im perial Diet, the Governments of Prussia and France pledge themselves to combine their etlorts with those of Bavaria, to secure to the latter the preservation of her ancient Domains on the Right of the Inn, as well as the possession Passau, and the entire Indemnity which has been adjudged to her.

" Citizens of Helvetia, the Government is as-. sembled at Berne. The events which had.necessi tated its departure, and those which have preceded its return, are_ sufficiently known to you. We will not, thetefore, speak to, you of the past: we wish only to open your eyes to the present, and to seek, if it be possible, your preservation for the future. " It is not a requisition of the Helvetic Govern ment that will cause the French to march among us ; but the Ft tts..r CONSUL of the French Republic can_ not suffer fadions and civil war to desolate a country, bordering on France ; a country attached to France by Treaties ; and which will for ever be indebted to France alone for the restitution. of its Independence. Theie cannot, therefore, Citizens of Helvetia, be any question, at• this rnoinent, of dispute, . as to this Or that system, or on the pre.emii,erice of this or that opinion ; the allied is to prevent the occupa tion of our Country by Foreign TroOps, and all the . ' evils chat would be the result.of it. Only one mode remains to us to prevent those evils ; it is that which the Proclamation of the Ft RsT CONSUL points out to us. " Citizens of Helvetia, we counsel not to repel it : it is the. last piatik by which we can escape shipwreck. The abyss is bewath your footsteps, and your` itin- is certain if you neglect to seize it.

Let all party denominations and all hatred be abjured ; let a general.desire toTreseive the existence and inde pendence of our Country ; let the necessity of pre serving for ourselves and our families the feeble re sources that remain to us, command tranquillity, and unite all mind's. For every true Swiss there can beneeforth'be but one thought, one 'end, and that is, the preserva tion , of the Swiss Country." EXTRACT OF A LETTER,FROM BASLE, OCT. 23. " A part of the left wing of the French Army of Observation concentrated on our frontieis, has put itself in motion, conformably to the orders received from General NEY, to proceed by Dilemont i Mon tiers, Grand Val, and Erguil, to Bienne, to the extremity of the French Frontiers, where a part of the zo4.th demi-bripde had already arrived in the course of last week. A considerable quantity of ammunition, and a number of pieces of artillery, had also arrived at Huninguen ; and quarters are pre pared there for the Troops exile fed to arrive with. out'delay from Mayence. " They write from Berne, that two days before a courier had arrived from - Paris to General RAFT, and that immediately after he had a conference with the Executive Council.

But tht other party, Which is known by the title of the Bernese Party, continues to advise perfect ••01)- mission to the Proclamation of BONAPARTE. It it: to this difference of opinion that they attribute the delay which the dissolution of the Diet of Schwitz has met with." ti Tlit re.ON:T2I;nI BERNT, OCT.

The Insurgent- Troops are separating, and returning into their respetti ve Cantons. Their retreat and disbanding are eifetted with the greatest order. A few agitators, however, remain together . in the mountains. The French Minister, VERNI NAC, has returned bete with the Senate.

The CHIEF CONStao rose and observed, that the principle upon which th e machine was constrained was not new in Me.. ohanics, and, therefore, he thought the highest re ward ought, not to be assigned in this instance, as no adequate recompense could then be given to the author of any work of original genius. The Re porter was not prepared to answer this remark, but another Member rose, and acknowledged that the principle was not new, contending, however, that the application of it, on the present occasion, was equal in merit to an original disco Very, and promise& the most beneficial result.
