By the Mon;tesir of the zest, we learn that a Treaty has been concluded between the French Re public and the DUKE of WIRTEMBERO. Ad dresses have already been presented to the Con. suls from the Inhabitants of several Distriets, re. spelling the appointment of BONAPARTE Clief Consul for life. Their consent to the proposal is conveyed in the same strain of unbounded adulation, which has charaaerized most of the late Addresses in France. Ihe Citizens of Soissons request, that they may be excused from the tedious process of giving their votes upon this question ; and beg to be led forth into the Champ de Mars, that they may give their assent to the proposition by acclamation. A very long and animated discussion has taken place in the Tribunate upon the question of the formation of a Legion of Honour : it was strongly opposed by SA.VOYE ROLLIN, and by CHAUVELI; the proposal was, however, at last adopted by a majority of r$ : the numbers were in favour of it 56 —against it 38 ; in the Legislative Body it Was carried by z 66 ry tic,. The projet for continuin the Slavery of the Blacks has also been adopted by a majority of 54 co 27. A Telegraphic dispatch from Brest dated the 19tli inst. states, that dispatches have been brorght by the Fidde, from St. Domingo, which brings favourable intelligence. The Telegraphic dispatch is as follows : Admiral VILLATET has sailed.— The news from St. Domingo is good :—the Head quarters are at Fort Republicain—TOUSSAlNT is closely pursued—the Squadron from Flushing and Havre de Grace had arrived—the Army had but few sick." A long Speech delivered in the Legislative Body by DARU, discloses the principles on which the new mode of recruiting. the Army is to be executed. Conscription is the basis on which it is to proceed. The justice and utility of this mode is defended by many specious arguments, and the inefficacy of vo_ luntary Inrohnent demonstrated. Proceeding upon the supposition, that every man is bound to take arms at the call of his Country, all the Citizens between the age of sixteen and forty are in rolled, and out of these, the Levies necessary to recruit the Army, are to be drawn by lot. The Standing Army of France thus becomes corn pletely a Militia, the principles of which will be found nearly to correspond with that of England. It is to be observed, however, that in the event of a War, the plan of conscription is also to be cm. ployed ; and by this means it is expeded that there will be procured soldiers more robust, more tem perate, :Incl. more attached to their Country than those debauched dregs of the great towns •umally _picked up by Recruiting Serjeants, The num= of those lit to hear arms between the age of 16 aid 40, is calculated to amount to.six millions; those from 20 to 25, to one million ; and those from za to 21, to two hundred thousand. In times of Peace the (ley levies are b: nude froth :he utter class, and the first is reserved for emerencies. The Arnw on the Peace Establishment is to consist of 300,000 men; ,of which 38,000 will be com posed of Officers and Veterans, who are not raised by conscription. There remains therefore the number of 262,000, to he provided for.—The whole of this number is to be renewed every five years, 5z,4.00 men being each year discharged, and an equal number raised out of those from 20 to 2r. The proportion for each distrit is not to be fixed solely according to the population, but re . !pea is also to be - had to the habits of the people, whiCh are most robust, and which are most war like. From hence it follows,. that a much greater proportion is to be levied in the country than in the towns, and in the Northern Departments than the Southern. The French Funds are at 56 fr, so cents. This morning arrived the Hamburg" , and Dutch Mails. By a Letter from Stuttgard of the 6th inst. it appears that the greatest joy prevailed on account of the Signature of a Treaty with the French Re public. A Mail from Jamaica reached Town this morn. ing, brought to Falmouth by the Chesterfield Packet in forty days. By her we learn, that very un favourable accounts were circulated at Jamaica re speCting the state of the French Army in St. Domin go. The Climate, and the harassing kind of war fare carried on by the Blacks, had greatly reduced the French Force, and unless speedy and large Re inforcements arrived, the success of the Expedition seemed hopeless. This account, we see s is at com plete variance with the Telegraphic Dispatch in the French Papers from Brest ; but we can now pretty well appreciate accounts so received., A Board was held this day at Chelsea Hospital, for the purpose of admitting In and Out Pensioners of that Hospital, the men who have been discharged from the Guards, the Regiments of the Line, the Fencibles, and Militia, since the last Board. Saturday morning the two Regiments of London 'Militia were drawn up in the Artillery Ground, and disbanded. Six Regiments are immediately to be sent to Ire land to re-place the liencible and Militia Corps about to be reduced. The two Battalions of the zoth Regiment, two. Battalions of the 4.oth, 17th, and 36th from the Mediterranean, are appointed to this service. The General Assembly of the Church of Scot land, met at Edinburgh on Thursday last, and was opened by the Right Hon. Lord NAPIER, His Ma jesty's Commissioner. x. 'loop of War, which arrived at Portsmouth on Monday last, from Mat - , unique, brought intelligence of a very unpleasant nature. That spirit of discontent which broke out last winter in the Fleet at Bantry Bay, has, it is said, again manifested itself in some of the ships under the command of Admiral CAMPnEt,L, in the Wet Indies ; but has been successfully opposed by the same loyalty and firmness which has or, former ' occasions ditinguished the Officers of the Navy and Marines ; and the consequence is, that eighty of fenders are now in irons on board the different ships in Admiral Ce,htp.a EL L's Fleet. • A dispatch overland has just arrived trom Bengal, which brings intelligence, that the province of Oude being taken into the hands of the Hon. Com pany, Marquis WELLESLEY'S brother is appointed Deputy Governor, with Messrs. MATHEW, LESL I r., and SETON under him. The Nabob is pensioned. The - Marquis - WELLESLEY is expeeied to pro. ceed to trrope, immediately on his return from Lucknow, without resuming his fundions at the seat of Government. Mr. BARLOW who was appointed successor to his Lordship in case of death or sudden return, will, of course, exercise the duties of the high office till the appointment is settled at home. Mr. BURROUGHS, the Company's Advocate General in Bengal, has arrived in England, having come over land, via Egypt. - Orders hate been sent out to Bengal for the im mediate redudion of the Marquis WEVLESLEY'S Body Guard. We are glad to find, from the Gazette of Satur. day, that Government pays stria attention to the services of the gallant Army they so well deserve, by rewarding Major. General COOT E with the Most Honourable Order of the Bath. It is rendered more valuable, as it is the fourth that was evgr given as an additional one. General GRINFIELD has been appointed Com mander in Chief of the West Indies ; an office of high importance at the present period, and of much emolument. He is preparing for his departure. A very large military establishment will be kept up there for a considerable time. \\r are assured that Lord BELGRAVE did.not de liver any message from Mr. PITT on the subject of the Statue at the Meeting of the Subscribers at Lloyd's Coffeehouse, as asserted in the Morning Chronicle of Friday last. Letters: froth Dublin state, that an Address has been unanimously voted by the Corporation of that city, to the Right Hon. CH. An cyr, expres sive of the ..sense entertained in chat Country, of the character, abilities, and conduct of the present Speaker of the House of Commons, Such genuine and uninfluenced expressions of esteem for the con. duct of public men in high confidential situations, is the most honourable testimonial of their merit, and the strongest incitement to men in high official stations, which has procured for Mr. ABBOT the admiration And gratitude of the Citizens of Dublin, .NA7AL-) FAL HOUTH, MAY 2 !, 1 ARRIVED the Chesterfield Packet, Cap ti with Mails from Jamaica, which place she left oa the 12th ult.
