PARIS, SEPT. Zi. THE FIRST CONSUL went on Sunday froth Mal ma.son to St. Clcud, where there is every reason to believe hiS residence is now fixed. BERNE, SEPT. 13.—The accounts from Z urich are very ccntradidory : some say that the number of men who have entered that City to defend it, amounts to zsoo, hut other accounts say the num bers are not so great. A letter states, that 600 Peasants, commanded by old General STEINER, have taken possession of Zur;chburg, a very ad_ vantageous position near Zurich, which commands that Town.—On the other hand General ANDER :IA-.1-4, 'after throwing a few bombs into the town, has taken a position at Kurnatch, where he expeBed to be joined by the Sub-Prefect of Meilen, with - a number of Peasants of that District. The Truce .for twelve days, which had been agreed upon, has been prolonged for three days. _ _ TI e French Minister yesterday received dis patches from Paris, but the nature of them has not yet transpired.—Some great event will, it is ex- PeCted take place to-morrow. It is said that i t is In contemplations to appoint a Diciator or Grand Couciliator, and it is imagined that C. DOLDER wilt be appointed to that situation. SEPT. 1.4..—A very unexpeaed event has oc •curred, which has given rise to a thousand con jeatires The Landamman DOLDER has been car, ried away froth his house, in sight of his Guards,: after having been compelled to give, in his resig nation. At fivd o'clock in the morning three Citi zens of Berne, and two of Zurich, MURALT, PISHER, WYTR7MB ACE!, TABLER, and DR IGG ER, entered the Landamman's house, pre sented him a plan of his resignation, requested him to sign it, and said, it was to be also signed by the other Members of the Council : that circumstances r equired this step, and that the Senate had assented to, it. C. BOLDER signed it without hesita. tion.—The five persons before Mentioned then Made him get into a carriage, and conveyed I , lm to jegistorf, about three leagues from hence, where he is guarded in the house of M. uxLE. a, of Berue„ This extraordinary measure 11 0 caused the greatest surprize, and has occasioned treat. disquietude. The Senate had no knowledge of what was in preparation, and it is not-known With what design this step was taken. It is said it was done with an intention of preventing DoLD ER from being raised to the Dictatorship. Under these e ircutnstances Citizens Ru - rrEatArt and FussLy have also offered their resignation. But the Senate, be- L°le they will compose a new Government,- wish to e) caroine this business to th e b ottom . I n the .mean ri me, Citizens RUTTEMAN and FussLy continue to Perfor m their funaions. The Cantons-of Argo pia and Baden are in a state of insurrenion, the Peasants have risen en masse, and have taken possession of Brugg and Luzbarg ; and yesterday when the Courier left elraza, that 12 ity was threatened with an attack. The Peasants Proposed afterwards. to attack the castle of Arbourg, in order to set at liberty , * person Of the name of SaOrTLAND, who is detained there. The last ac counts from Zatt;e4, are not of a more tranquiLna ture. General ANDERMATT had taken possession of Very advantageous position near that city, and threatens to fire upon it with red hot balls. More r ecent accounts say, that he has carried his design l a n to execution, a n d th at t h e • c i ty h a d,b een set, on fir e in several plaCes. ---- .Sarr..ls..—The Members of the Senate who' were sent to C.

They write' frorn • 1 at CiliZea LAI; it ISION) Aid"l"4lnP of 1 the nisi. Coitiui., has transmitted to the Ei EC. TOR of BAVARIA a very amicable letter, on the part of the French Government, in answer to that which the Elelor had written relative to the oc cupation of Passati by the AustriAs. There is no doubt that the mission relates to the affairs of Pas sau. It is known, on the other side, that the two parties which divide the Cabinet of Vienna are not agreed as to the steps which ought to be taken re speaing this business. According to the last let ters from Vienna, the EMPEROR has not yet come to any determination upon the subjeti. SCHAFFHAUSEN, SEPT. I 2.-The Muni c ipality of Zurich has published the following Proclamation on the events of the loth of September : " A new event has happened, as sad as unex peaed. Instead of answering the representations of the Statthaller and the Municipality, the Gene ral Commandant of the Helvetic Troops appea'red suddenly before our gates about half past two in the morning, and threw more than 200 bombs into the City, by which it was exposed to the greatest danger, and against which it could not be defended without the special protection of God. On his ar rival, the General summoned the Commandant of the City to open the gates ; but whilst that Officer took the orders of the Municipality, and was preparing to send Deputies to the General, the bombardment commenced. It lasted without inter ruption for two hours before the General could be prevailed upon to suspend hostilities until six in the evening. - He demanded that he should be received into the Town with his Troops until the expiration of the truce, and that he should be put into posses. sion of one of the gates until he received an answer from Berne, which would require two days. The Municipality sent to him at five, a Deputation, to propose, on the contrary, a truce for three days, without conditions. We expeet at present his an- Swer. ZURICH, SE'P T. I o.—The Inhabitants of Zurich speak openly of an entire separation from the Cen tral Government, and of having an Independent Constitution in concert with the Inhabitants of the Country. Appenzel has resolved to raise a force for the defence of its frontiers. Rheinthal, St. Gall and Thergyvia chew dispositions equally hostile to the Heivetic Government. To-morrow the Loan MAYOR, and Alderman, attended by the City Officers, will meet at Guild.. hall, at twelve o'clock, to swear into office Messrs. ALEXANDER and WELCH, lately elated Sheriffs for the year ensuing: His Lordship will afterwards hold a Court of Aldermen, to swear into office Trios. SMITt4, Esq. eleaed an Alderman of the Ward of FarringdOn Within, in the room of Wm. NEWMAN, Esq. deceased, and for the dispatch of other business, and on Wednesday (being Michael mas-day) his Lordship will hold a Common Hall, for the election of a Lord Mayor for the year ensu. ing. On Thursday his Lordship will accompany the new Sheriffs to Westminster, where they will go through the usual ceremony, previous to their being sworn before the Cursitor Baron, of chopping sticks, and counting bob-nails. NEW MAYORS. - Doncaster, T. 1 7, 700DCOCit, Esq.—Huntingdon, J. PERK I Ns, Esq.—Weymouth, E. T. STEWARD, Esq.--Poole, W. SpututtErt, Esq. —Oxford, W. FOLKE R, Esq.—Woodstock, E. COLES, Esq. It was the Hon. Mrs. Fox, Lady of General Fox, who arrived at Dover from Calais on the 17th instant, and not the General himself, as erroneously stated in some of the Newspapers. Mrs. Fox re sided in Minorca during the greatest part Of the time that General Fox commanded in that Island ; but on his appointment, after the decease of Sir -•- - RALPH AB RCROMBY, to the chief command of the Forces in,the Mediterranean, and his consequent removal to Malta, Mrs. Fox embarked with her children for Italy, where she remained some months, on her way to England. General Fox left Alta the latter end .of July, and was in Sicily at the daie, of the last letters which have been received from him. His arrival may be daily expeaed.. By recent accounts from the West Indies, what between disease and exaffions, the Colony of St. Domingo is said to be in a very distressed state. Out of soo people who embarked in a ship lately arrived at Brest, upwards of a hundred died of the yellow fever on the passage. A contribution often millions of livres was laid upon the inhabitants by Gen. Lt CLE RC, of which the half was to be imme. diately paid. Nothing of this kind appears in the -French Newspapers. It is said, that land to the amount 'of twelve hundred thousand livres (50,0001. sterling), has been bought in France for General Li CLERC'S Lady, since he has been Governor of St. Domingo. . This morning, between four and five o'clock, a fire broke out in a large store-house in Store -street, Bedford.square, belonging to Messrs. GYFFARD and Co. Brewers, by which the greater part of the building was destroyed. Several engines attended, but there was at first some difficulty in procuring water. Having at length, however, obtained a sufficiency of that necessary article, the violence of the flames was overcome, and the fire was pretty nearly got under by ten o'clock. A party of Horse-Guards attended to keep off the mob. A large quantity_of porter was in the storehouse at the time the fire - broke out. Last week a dreadful fire broke out on the.pre-* Mises of Mr. Burbidge,at 1 - follyfieldS, near Feckhen_ ham, Worcestershire, which destroyed several corn and hay-ricks, a barn full of grain, and other out,. buildings, but happily did not reach the dwellin42 . .:' house. This unfor tunate .acc id ent was occas i or al by the heating of one of the hay- , icks, being opened burst into a flame, and setting the others on fire, caused so tremendous a blilze as to defy every effort to extinguish it. The insurance On the property destroyed by the late Fire at Liverpool, amounts only to 95,0001, of which 42;0001. was in. the Sun, Phoenix, and Exchange London Offices, - 16,0001. insured at Liverpool, and the residue in other Offices. Great part of the damage was, in foreign consignments, and one house at Dantzic, will, it is said, lose 60,c001. TILE HAMB URG Jt MAIL 'VIENNA, SErr; Tx P. day before yesterday the Frenet Ambassa.: dor here received a courier from Paris, and imnie diatily after had a long conference with the'Minister of Stare, Count COB EtitZ EL i as is supposed on the subjed of the Indemnities, and the occupation of Passau. All the furloughs granted to the Military here have been recalled, frOm which it is conjeticred, that His Imperial Majesty intends to make not only a special but a general muster. The report, how ever, that military preparations are making in Bo hemia and Moravia, is without foundation. RATISBON, Szpr. 13. BONAPARTE'S Adjutant, Citizen LAttrtISTON, has set out from this city for Fienna. The Austrian Plenipotentiary has not as yet made any notification relative to the Conchtsrth: of the Deputation, voted on the Bth, but has transmitted it to rienna. The French Legation appears not to be perfe(tly satisfied with the Covc/u.sum of the Deputation ; because the plan of Indemnities was not accepted in it . implicitly and unconditionally : a French Memorial is therefore expeaed to be given in on the subjea in the course of the present week. Yesterday another French.courier arrived here from Paris.' The Bishop of ,Basle, the Landgrave of Hesse_ Homburg, the Hereditary Prince of Leiningen, and the Count of Solms-Laubach are here, to take care of their interests in the affairs before the Deputa tion. It is said, that on the 7th inst. a Convention was agreed on, under the mediation of the Prussian Minister Baron HARDENBURG, between the House of Austria and the ELECTORofBAVARIA, by which the part of Bavaria situated on the right bank of the Inn, with the salt-pits of Reichenball and Traunstein, is ceded to Austria, which in return gives to the ELECTOR the Austrian territories in Swabia, Four teen MiPiens of Florins in ready money, and en gages to supply the country of Bavaria annually with a certain quantity of salt, at a stipulated invariable price. Wecannot i - however, as yet vouch for the truth of this vrporr. • MANIIEIM, SEPT. 14. IN a fewlays' the MARGRAVE Of BADEN Will likewise take possession of his Indemnities. A bat talion of infantry and a detachment of cavalry are ready to march to Constance; another division will occupy Sch/;enge n , the Bishopric of Basle, and the Imperial Towns of Ofenburg, Zell, and Gengen bach ; a third will take possession of the Towns of Überlingen, Biberach, Pfidlendorf, and Wimilen. The Abbeys have already generally submitted. WETZLAR, SEPT. X 4 Mt House of ORANGE-NASSAU is now taking possession of its Indemnities, by Commissioners and Manifestoes. The Privy Counsellor VON SCHEtilt is gone to Fulda ; Counsellor Vox ERATH to Corvg, Dortmund, Kappel, Kapfenberg, and Dietkirchen ; and Counsellor RAHT to the Abbey of Weiggarten. NAPLES, Avc. 24. ,TH is evening the Marquis DI Mos, Ambassador from His Catholic Majesty to the Court of Naples, made his public entry into this City. The proces_ sion was opened by a detachment of Cavalry, which was followed by twenty-four Coaches and SiX, in which were Chamberlains and different Officers : after these came twelve running footmen, thirty-six valets, domestics, &c. who preceded the State-Car riage of the Ambassador. A great number of other Carriages of the Neapolitan Nobility, and a de tachment of Cavalry, closed the 'whole. To-night the whole City will be,sylendidly illuminated ; and to-morrow the Ambassador will espouse by proxy, for the PittstcE of SrAtst, in the Royal Chapel, the Daughter of His Sicilian Majesty. According to accounts received yesterday from Porpz, the Russian Troops who were two years in garrison at Naples have arrived there in safety. One of the three fifty-gun Ships which brought them here has been declared unfit for further service, and sold for '7,000 silver ducats. It is said that two Spanish Regiments will come to Naples to do duty as a garrison. • ' LEGHORN, Avc..27. AN Austrian Ship has arrived here from Tunis, the Captain of which asserts, that a bloody battle has been fought between the Bays of Tunis and Con stantine, in which 10,000 men were slain, on both sides, and 1300 wounded. The same Captain like.. wise says, that the American Squadron which blockades Tripoli had landed 2000 men to• procure fresh provisions, and attempt a coup-de-main ; but they were surrounded by a great body of Tripoli_ tans, who inade 400 of them prisoners. The re port, however, of the Americans' having landed 2,000 men, must certainly be greatly exaggerated. —(Gazetta Univ.) MILAN, SEPT. 2. THE French Envoy at Florence, General CLARKE. has given the KING of ETRURIA new assurances of the friendship of the French Republic, and its re ,ard for his interests. - It is said that the threevfollowing articles may now be obtained for three 7s. pieces, namely—a Di vorce in France, a 'ride of Nobility in Silesia, and a Diploma In the University of Padua. Sart-I-clay letters were received from Trinidad, by the. Rebecca, arrived at. Liverpool, but they do not furnish any news of interest.

Colonel BOTH W E Li, gave the word of command, and the manc.;:uvres were as follow ; a. On the King's coming to the Ground, the Regiment marched in troops, and passed him in ordinary time. 2. Fell in, and marched in Trodps, and passed His Majesty in quick time. 3. Formed, and retreated back) and dismounted. 4. Fell in, and took their•carabines by Troops. S.

Advanced in front, passed His Majesty, formed the line, and finally made their obeisance to their Sovereign. His MAJESTY with much condescension,.re urned the last salute, and expressed himself highly satisfied, with the dexterous manner in which the various evolutions were performed. The precision and activity displayed on this oc casion prove the excellent discipline of the Scorch Greys, whose courage and capacity have often dis tinguished them in glorious contests against the enemies of .their Country. With very - few ex ceptions indeed, they. are all natives of Scotland, and talk the broad dialed peculiar to the place of their birth. However disagreeable this may be to the more refio:d and delicate ear of an English man, yet the Corps always command the respect and esteem of every description of their. fellow.. subjects, by their excellent and exemplary conduit whether on or off the field. An anecdote highly honourable to their prowess, ought not to.be omitted on the present occasion. They were the favourite Regiment of GEORGE 11. who often toOk great pleasure in demonstrating his partiality to a Corps which had rendered his Family essential services. When once reviewing them in Hyde-Park before a French Field-Marshal, and a Prince of the House of Bourbon, His MAJESTY observed to the Stranger— " Did your RoyaP.Highness ever see a finer-Corps?" " They are a very fine Corps indeed; but I think inferior to the Geozs d' Armes. Did your Majesty e •er see them ?" The KING, somewhat nettled at the abrupt and unexpected question, replied in al., fusion to an archievement of the Scotch Greys, who had once defeated and driven the . Gens d' Armes into the Danube—". No ; (said His - Majesty) but . my- Scorch Greys have seen them!" . Most of the Norfolk and Suffolk Troops of Yeo.. - man Cavalry have lately undergone the drilling, &c. prescribed by the Ad, and are in consequence exempt the duties on keeping a pleasure horse and wearing hair-powder. • It appears that the gangs of villains who have lately committed .such atrocious depredations in London and its vieinity,• still continue their eiread-• fit attempts. On Thoesday evening, about eight o'clock, as Mr. Smith, 'a Master Carpenter, was coming along London .Wall,• •he was beset near Winchester-street, by nine• of these ruffians, who knocked him down, and kicked him in the face in a most cruel manner, then robbed him ; one of them said to another—" Cut his throat." ;le was left on the pavement in a senseless state, till two Gentlemen happening to come by, and obsereirg his situation, took him into . a Public-house, and had him taken proper care of. He now 'lies ill of the bruises he has received.—Surely it is high. time that the Police should rigorously interfere to .put a stop to such proceedings, which are a disgrce to a civilized country. •• A Gentleman's Servant, at Camberwell, going down the Grove, on Friday night, at nine o'clock, was surrounded by five or six tuffianJooking fellows in sailors habits, who took from hiin two ,guineas and a half and two shillings in money ; they then quietly walked off. At Reading Fair, the dealers in cheese demanded such high prices„ that a small quantity : only was sold; on . the day following, however, the prices declined nine shillings per cwr. • In Woreestenhire,.,-Gloucestershi . re, and the neighbouring' Counties; bacon, iv ithin the last week; has.fallenin price about Ss. per cwt. . ,Cheese at Hereford,, on; Tuesday, declined in price I3i. per cwt. and a great quantity Ivas car tied from the Fair unsold.
