YESTERDAY a Hamburgh Mail, and the Paris Papers of the 2 zd, reached town ; and this morning we received the Momiteur of the z3d, inst. and ano ther Hamburgh Mail. All the serious obstacles which have so long protroCled the discussions on the question of the Indemnities, seem to be re moved, and the final CoNclusurn is now only de layed by some points of form, and by the cautious deliberation of German Di,blomatists. Although the EMPEROR of GERMANY has not succeeded to the extent of his wishes, he has, partly by his own firmness and perseverance, and partly by the change which has taken place in the politics of the Court of St. Petersburgh, obtained terms much more favourable id the interests •of his FaMily than those which were at first proposed. 'The re ports which have so long been industriously circu lated in the French Papers, of the disputes between the English,and Turkish Troops, appear to be with out foundation, or at least to be very much exag gerated ; a very good understanding now subsists betweerl them, and the garrison.duty of Alexandria is performed jointly by the Troops of both Nations. A Letter ,fr.ln the Frontiers of Russia, dated Dec. s 1. states, that the EMPEROR of RUSSIA has consented to accept the Guarantee of Malta, as soon as some alteration shall be made in the Treaty of Amiens, relative to that point. The Moniteur still continue;, its attacks upon Mr. Mootts; and in a pretended Letter from Stu/- sari, advances five or six gross falsehoods, for the purpose of introducing one miserable joke. The Funds are 55. N AIL il 11 NEIF S . PORTSMOU f Dec. 26. AR R - IT ED the Thomas am!

Corn Prising the Kent and Hedor, of 74 Guns, Agin court and Mann:Oath of 64., Greyhound of 32, WM.: sel -Brig, and ThOmas (which takes this letter), sailed from Malta on the z3d of September, and an chored in this place on the 4.th instant. The objed of our coming hither, or: the probable period of our continuance here, are concealed in . the most myste. riOus silence. We lay eight miles from the shore, which presents a very dreary appearance, and the nearest habitation when we land is five miles off. The suspense in which this fleet is, and the Me— diterranean ships generally, •are , held, respeaing their destination, is greatly irksome and inconve nient ; our people, however, are very healthy. GREENOCK, Dcc. 2i. THE Nancy, BA IN, arrived here yesterday from Quebec ; left it on the tzth November ; the Argo, from Liverpool, had arrived there on the Bth of that month, and the Callicut Castle was expeaed to sail for Clyde about the 14. th ; the Daltj.mple, Hero, Mary, AgenoP;rt, and Chance, g all for Clyde, bad saileOefore the Nancy, which passed the two lat ter vessels in the river St. Lawrence; the Nancy was detained three weeks off the banks of New. foundland with calms and light Wind, mostly from the Eastward. The Phet.ili.V, DUNCAN, of this Port, sailed from Hamburgh on the 28th ult. for Liverpool, with con_ trary winds,,andbad weather, was put into a good harbour in one of the Shetland Isles, on the .9111 inst. and was safe there on the 13th by the Captain's letter. The schooner Diligent, joitN Po RY ERS, Master, on her voyage from Quebec to St. John's, New foundland, -was stranded in the River St. Lawrence, about 3o leagues below Quebec, en the 9th of No. vember.—Part . of, the cargo will be saved. • The Be/bide, of 84. guns, which has been vie. tualled at Plymouth for six months,' is destined for the Mediterranean. The Ch;cheiler, of 44. guns, was well on the 29th of Odober in. lat. 31. 4. long. 72. out three weeks, from jatimica far tiaIHAX. . The Bittern - Stoop 'of War, Capt. Colts ETT, is ordered for the Mediterranean. On Thtitsday the Hydra Frig -rate, Capt. Mu NDY, Wag paid cuff at Portsmouth; and re.con-imissioried. This morning arrived a Mail from the Leeward Islands, brought to Falmouth by the Townshend 'Packet in six weeks. Ht 5 MAjEs-ry is perfeetly recoveted from the ef feas of the late sprain. The QuEEtz and the PuINCESSEs are all in - perfeEt health, and are making preparations for a Christmas Ball at Frogmore, for the younger branches of the N , )bility and Gentry. A small select} party have been on a visit at the Queen's Lodge for several days ; among the num ber are Sir WILLIAM. and Lady PITT, both of whom are great favourites with TH PIAJVIAJ ESTI ES. The Company have been entertained4yery evening with cards and music. The DUKE of CAMB ID :E arrived at Manheim on the t zth instant, accompanied by the Hanove rian Chamberlain M.VON DER DECKEN ; IIISROYAL HIGHNESS intends to visit the most remarkable ob jets in that town, l ard then proceed on his journey to Catlsruhe. He travels unci.:r the title of the Count of DlErtioLz. The Gazette of Saturday, contains His Majesty's Order in Council for authorizing the importation of bread, flour, Indian corn, and live stock, into the Island of Newfoundland, in British Ships from any of the territories of :he United States of America, for the supply of the inhabitants and fishermen of the said Island, for the ensuing season, in conformity with the customary regulations. On Friday the 17th inst. JOHN SARGENT, Esq. Joint Secretary to the Treasury, was unanimously elected M. P. for Bodmin, Cornwall, in the room of Cu ARLES SHAW LEFEVRE, who made his eleCtion for Reading. , The Dock-yar4 Guard- at Portsmouth, was oil Thursday morning mounted by the Royal Marine Corps, who are in future to continue in that duty. We understand that zoo of the Royal Marine Corps will go out to Botany Bay, under the com mand of Lieut.. Col. Cor,Li Ns, of that Corps, who is appointed Lieut. Governor. Colonel COLLINS having been several years in New South Wales, this choice is peculiarly judicious. Dr. BAILIF, the ReClor of Wythyham, in Sus sex, has distributed, by the Dutchess of DoitsET's order, thirty pounds among the indigent Inhabitants of that Village, where Her Grace's liberalities ren der her universally beloved ;-,and twenty pounds to Poor of Sackville College, East Grinstead. A Letter from Jamaica, of some days later date than the late Mail from thence, -by a Ship arrived at Plymouth, mentions, that the-fever had subsided ar Cape Francois, and generally throughout St. Do_ mingo ; but that the Blacks were in possession of all the open country, and kept the towns in a state of blockade. A small number ,of Troops had ar rived from France, and others were daily expecied, Dec, Zi. The Second :and Third Consuls are, it is said to have an assembly alternately every Thursday. They speak of nothing from Brussels, Antrwerp o i . Liege, and even from Cologne, but of the approach ing journey which the FIRST CONSUL is to make immediately to those Cities. Several .foreigners have in consequence' hired apartments in those Cities. In a Council' of the Administration, which was held yesterday, th l e Minister of the Treasury gave in an account of all expences of negotiations, dis ' counts of bills' services, and transfers of money, discharged out of the Treasury from the 23d of September, 18ox, to the 23d of September, 1802, the loth year of the existence of the French Re. public. The results which he presented were highly sa_ tisfatory; the total' expence upon those objets col le Lively not exceeding the sum of fifteen millions of livres, or about 630,0001. sterling, which is one-half less than was the same brancli of-the ex penditure for the year immediately preceding.— . This account, with the several documents by which it is authenticated,, will be communicated to the. Legislative Body at its - first meeting, and after.: 'wards printed. Among the paperS laid before the• Consuls by the Minister of the Treasury, was a curious statement of the daily ;expense of discounting the bills of the Receivers General of the Revenue, commencing from the end of the year. 8, (Sept. 23, i 800), com ing down to the end of the year iO, (Sept. 23, 1.8 oz). Some few days before the battle of Marengo, the discount of those bih was at 5 per cent. per month. In the course of the year 9, it fell first to 2 per cent per month, and then to -. 1 , per cent. pet month. In the year to it varied from is-t 6: to. - 3.4.ths per month.-___ It is now fixed for the whole of the year i t at One-half per cent. per month. There is now no other Government in Europe whose bilk are discounted at a rate so low. The Paper of the Receivers-General before the Revolution was then•equally discounted at one-half per cent. per month. In a Council of Administration, which .is to be held next - Saturday, the Ministers of Finance, and the Public Treaitity, will present the general ac count of the receipts andexpenditure of, the Repub lic during the year to. Each Minister will trans. mit, .at 'the same time, a particular account of the expences of - his - department. In the same Connell the Budget will be drawn up, and presented to the, Legislative Body for the service of :he year tt. • The Caisse d'Amortissement is cancelling in the• great book, the 5 per cent. Consols, which it has boubht. The state of its operations will he joined to the general account of finances, which will be, presented to. the. Legislative Body. It will..afFotd_ results of a nature to satisfy all persons interested in the prosperity of the Republic. RATISBON, DEC. t,—The important. Note which the Imperial Plenipotentiary M. de HUGEL presented to the Didature of the Diet, has been published. One pas Sage of this Note has .produced a great sensation ; it relates to the Indemnities of th-, G R A ' wro nine' c• of a.na yS corkeivcd in these words " Bound by its duty towards the - Empire, and by its full powers, the Deputation is authorized to exe cute the dispositions of the Treaty of. Lunevilli, but it has no right to contribute to the imperfect execution: of a cleat, express, and precise stipulation, without the ethisent" of the parties interested." The General Diet of the Empire assembled yester_ . day, when it was resolved that the deliberation on : the general Conclusum transmitted directly to the Diet by the Ministers of the Mediating Powers, sihAild be opened in the first Sitting after the Christ mas Recess. The Deputation did not sit the day before yester, day : the followingis the result of the deliberation .. which took:place-on-the 7th instant.. " Saxony'demands that whilst the ratification of the general Cone/as - um is deliberated upon, the De.. putation shall . octstmy itself with the rent assigned, to the Eleeforiof Treves, and the support of-the . Clergy of the fourth and fifth class. As.to- any thing further, the Sub-Delegate refers to his pre. ceding votes, and thinks that the Deputation, ought not to take the charge.of making innovations in the Constitution of the Empire .and - the-Circles ; fie declares besides, that his Court Teerves t 6 itself expressly, its right over the Imperial fiefs of Hannau Lichtenberg, situate on the right hank of the Rhine, and also the city of Erfurt amt its ter ritory, and generally all the rights of the House:of Saxony, as to any ohjed of- the Indemnities. AS to die clauses demanded by Bohemia, he thinks that the transmission of the general anclusum to the Diet is an obstacle to what is wished to be in serted.'' " The Grand Master of the Teutonic Order joins in the vote given by Bohemia, in the last Sitting, and demands expressly the insertion, in the Conc/u -sum, of the Clause relative to the GRAND DUKE of TUSCANY ; he is convinced of the necessity of ad. milting into the College of Electors, and that of Princes, new Catholic Slates, and regards as highly suitable the conferring of the Eleetoral Dignity on the Grand Dnke ; he also thanks Bohemia for the proposal of attaching in perpetuity that dignity to the Grand Mastership of the Teutonic Order." " Majeure again thanks the Ministers of the Mediating Powers, for the continuation of their cares, as to the objeCts to which the Imperial Plenipotentiary has called the attention of the De putation, and particularly the Indemnities and the Maintenance of the Clergy, which remain to be determined upon. These objects have already been recognized by the Deputation, which can do nothing more without thc Ministers of the Mediating Powers, from whom it . way for instructions, which will be given before the.opoing of the deliberations of the . The other,,Sub',;delegates have not yet voted, nor has any resolution been adoptecL J3ERNE, DEC. I 2.—The Administrative Cham ber of the Canon of Lucer4e has been authorized to levy a contribution of 25,000 Francs in the Canton, to T-0:11c, o p The , iirn to be paid for the main. tenance of the French troops, . _ The Tribunal of. the aistria of Berne has re ' ceiv'ed instrudions from the Department of Justice; for to admit any complaint on account of o ffence' arising out of political affairs cori2mitted in months *or September and Odober last, with the exception_ of reclamations and demands for indevi'. nit) , and injuries done to property. General NEr having learnt that several ChiCO of Cbrps of French troops had exaded sums:oC -1 1 0 " !ley from the Municipalities, in addition Aci APO' which they were ordered to furnish, has requested=" the first Landamman to issue very precki, der;'-to repress this abuse, a,ad to write to the Pre.. feels, recomineoclingsthem to prohibit the Muni"' •" palities from paying any sums of that kind, under the penalty Of being responsible for such advances. • VIENNA, .DEC. &-----The dispatches which tir 'Russian Ambassador M. DE RASUNIOWSKY'has ceived from his Sovereign, relate to the Incle:nnitie sr ' of the Grand Duke of .TuscArtY, and have pro ms. &iced in • the I m perial Cour t t h e most agrfe j abL' . sensation. The Prince DE ESTESRAZY Wily Pr°' coed to Pezl;l to terminate the Negotiations so long pending .respeaing that important business. Th e Prince sets out on the loth, but his feared that the -vian suggested by Russia will not_ be .praaicable in the present state of affairs. . - Our Court is occupied at present with severa l alliances besides. that with Russia, to which it 26. taches the greatest importance. It appears to '.to unite itself to one of the Courts in the No(l'' of Germany, which enjoys a great credit., not 0 much on account of its power, as the wisilom of its Sovereign. - This Court is that of Saxony ; at'u much is said of the marriage of the Eletioral NO' , cess of. SAXONY with the Archduke FEttorNANDf . ci.devant Grand Duke of TUSCANY, Who Will cele bratehis second gurriage when he tics - taken poS.-. . session of the Indemnities which he expets, and particulafly of the title of EleCtor, which he hope!. will be sectired to hiin by - the new. Constitution of' the Empire. . . We now • know with certainty that Josurfi .BO NAP ART was to have come hither to treg resptCting the Indemnities of. the GRAND DUKE, but the French Cburier, who arrived on the 20 1 of November, brought di4latches which rendered . ' that mission useless. DECEMBER 23. Two English Travellers lately presented - then , selves before the Mayor of Orleans. One of them: was in liquor,. and conduced himself in a most decent. manner, and was guilty of such excesses, that the Lieutenant of the Gendarmerie was under the necessity - of - arresting - him - The person arrested immediately complained to Lord \\TH I TWORIH . , wh o,' concerned at the miscondLia of the Englishman, and, struck with the moderate proceedings of the Prefect, wrote to that Magistrate a most- polite Letter, in . which he requests him (notwithstanding the dissa-' tisfaCtion he might feel upon this occasion) to eort tinue to treat his Countrymen with that politenes , Which is Peculiar to him. This. contlud of tl#' Ambassador is certainly very different from that' of the Member of Parliament who wished t° have the Prefet of. the Police :It Paris brought to the - Bar of the House of Commons, because. 11 ° arrested Captain .130'AuvsRorgt. The inquiri : which it was prOposed to make upon this subjea , is only worthy of the little theatres on the 800104 yards: STv-roAtto„ DEC. I2.—The celebrated Mr' MooRE presented : himself at the Court of the DUO of Wva.-rEma€Korl, who received him very ill, auct caused him to be . informed, that he (the Duke) disposed to unite himself with France to the Peace of the Continertt, and to- supporeibe •• . • rations of the Diet at Ratisbon. „ r ; • Mr. .Moott e, therefore, has fiot been more stica cessful here `than he - Was at Vienna, where the Court wouldnorreceive him. - It is not probable that he %c;i ll ' ‘ obtain more credit at Munich, at Carlsruhe, or with the ELECTOR Of HESSE. The particular proteaio n afforded at London, to a number of pamphlets w hich' are *publiShed there against the KING of PRO' SIA, makes it probable that Mr. MooRE would not meet with a very favourable reception at .It is even doubtful, whether he woul S he received at Hanover. He is thus reduced £ 0 drink Constance wine, which is certainly not 50 good as that of the Cape, until a new cargo of Allies comes fom the Indies, which will afford OA,. means of making a small Coalition.
