The speculations that w;.rc form bopez that werf.. eAprt4:.pthl,,,that FraOce wmtl4 not interfere in the affairs of &a;/zee/and, are at an end. The First Consul has declared, in an Ad dress dated the 30th ult. r to the Inhabitants of the Eighteen Cantons of the Helvetic Republic, that, he will be the Mediator of their differences, and that he will mediate in an effedual manner, such as be comes the Great People in whose name he speaks.— He then proceeds to order, that the Senate shall, five days after the notification of his Proclamation, reassemble at Berne ; and that all the persons now in arms shall be disembodied. The Senate is dirrded to send three Deputies to Paris ; and the Cantons are allowed also to send Deputies, if they think proper. In Germany, the Princes to whom Indemnities have been allotted, are taking possession of them with great expedition.—The Austrians have not evacuated Passau; on the contrary, they are taking every measure to enable them to keep possession of that place., The Moniteur formally contradids two reports that have been in circulation first, that it was in.. tended to unite several of the Departments into one : it states that no change whatever will take place with respea to them ; and secondly, that the Offices of the different Ministers were to be ab. sorbed into four, Sec. The funds are 53. to. Her Royal Highness the PR/ /ICES& of WAL ES ar rived at Newmarket on Sunday night, slept at THOMAS PANTON, Esq.'s, saw the racing on Mon.. day, and immediately set off for Rainhaw, the seat ,of Marquis TOWNSHEND. A Morning Paper states the arrival of General ANDR EOSS I'S Servants yesterday in the River,— We question the authenticity of this intelligence, as we know that orders were sent some time ago to the Custom-House at Dover, for the proper recep tion of the Ambassador's Baggage and Suite. Early yesterday morning, Lieutenant NEWTON, of the Intrepid, arrived at the East India House, with Dispatches brought from Madras by Captain FoorE, Commander of His Majesty's Frigate Sea- Horse, arrived at Portsmouth on the 4th inst. The Sea-Horse left Madras on the 3 tst of May, and Sr. Helena on the t zth of August, at which time not any ships were there. The Antra, Country Ship, left Madras at the same time with the Sea-Horse. The Herculean, outward bound, Capt. BUTLER, was spoke with in lat. 35. so. S. long. z 3. 30. East, all well. The Althea, Extra Ship, sailed from St. Helena the soft. of July. Her passengers are Mrs. RE ES, Mrs. WILLIAMS, Lieut. BOOTH, and Mr. FRAsER. Yesterday American Papers to the ist of Septem ber were-received. It is with pleasure we are en abled to state, from the reports of the Board of Health, that the ravages of the pestilential disorder, which had excited so much alarm, had been gradually declining since the last accounts were received.— The last bills of interment, indeed, are highly sa_ tisfaaory. It appears from them that there was but a very inconsiderable increase above the general pro portion in the mortality of children and adults. A very severe fall of rain at New-York, on the zgth of August, had excited a gold deal of uneasiness, from a dread of the consequences of the intindation in the lower part of the town. By proper precau tions, however, the' water was cleared off without producing any material damage. In Albany and some other districts, the appearance of the crop was rather unpromising, but through the greater part of the States it was, on the other hand, very favourable. On TUesday se'nnight the Right Hon. Earl GOWER, the Countess of SUTHERLAND, Lord STRATHMORE, and Lady CHARLOTTE GowER, arrived at Dumbreck's Hotel, Edinburgh. General MoRAT is appointed Governor of all the Palaces of the FIRST CONSUL. The Government of the Batavian Republic has ordered a gratification of 300 florins to be paid for each Batavian vessel employed in the Herring Fishery. The greatest exertions are making in the Ports of the Batavian Republic, to restore the Commerce of that State to its former prosperity. The Isle of Wight never had so many visitors as during the present season). Indeed the beauty of the C;iwory, and the grand and rich prospeds which the Island every where presents, render it, a most attractive and gratifying place to a Stranger. On Sunday evening last, between eight and nine o'clock, as Mr. jonti HE ATHCOTE, brother to Sir GILBERT 1-IEP.THeoTE, was coming down Dart f in his way to town, being in his curricle drawn by two fine spirited horses, accompanied by his servant, a part of the harness broke, and the horses took fright ; the servant had the presence of mind to jump out, and received no hurt, but Mr. HEATHCOTE was soon after, by the violence of the curricle running down the hill, thrown out, and his head striking the ground, he received a vio lent wound on the back part of his head, ()e -1 sides being otherwise bruised. Sir WALTER FAR QUHAR was sent for express from Margate, who at tended, but Mr. HEATHCOTE continued quite in sensible till Monday forenoon ; it is hoped that he is now in a fair way of recovering. It is singular, that Mr. }if ATHCOTE was scarcely recovered from the serious injury he received this Summer on New_ market race course, by the falling tc his horse, and several of the horses which were pressing up to the winning post going over him. We are happy to say that the account of Sir James Pennyman's death, in our paper of yesterday s was totally unfounded.

PORTSMOUTH, Ocr. s. YFETrRDAY morning about a quarter past six, a sudden violent gust of wind or whirlwind came on, and lasted about twenty minutes : it carried every thing almost before it, and we are concerned to state, that it occasioned the oversetting the ship Thames, from the West Indies, at the back of the, Isle of Wight, and the Ship and whole Crew were in a moment lost.—A Ship or two were in sight, but felt themselves so much of the hurricane, that they could render no assistance. Arrived the Eleanor, flows, from Bourdeaux for London, with brandy; renns, BIRCH, from Dantzic for Liverpool, with planks ; Sans Souci,' FONTAINS, from Havre ; and Centurion, RICH ARDS, from Liverpool. • FALMOUTH, Ocr. 3. TJI E American Ship Piaster, Capt. WiLsort Buttsn, passed this POI t yesterday for Amsterdam, with tobacco and staves, from Norfolk. Left Cape Henry x3th August ; on the 22d spoke the Ship Harriet, Capt. Jos. Hot. B aooK., from Liverpool, bound to jaltimore, in lat. 38. 2. long. 6 . 5. 8. out thirty days, all well ; on 23 ult. in lat. 40. o. long. 43. o. spoke the Ship Felicity, of Philadelphia, from Liverpool for Virginia ; And on 27th ult. spoke a Dutch Armed Ship, in company with two Merchantmen bound to Cape of Good Hope, then in lat. 49. and about 30 leagues west of the Lizard. Last evening arrived the King George Packet, YESCOMBE, with Mail from Lisbon in 17 days. Passengers by her, are Capt. KEMPE, of the Navy, Mr. BASSET, Mr. OCILVIE, Messrs. CUTHEORT, MoattisoN, and RoisoN. Also arrrived this day, the Dale cf*Yorh Packet, with Mail from Lisbon, ten days passage. Passen ger by her is S. CACTANO CARMINATE. The Walsingham Packer, with Mail from England, and the itydra, of 38 guns, Hon. Capt. - PAGET, arrived at Lisbon previous to her sailing, as had the Niger Frigate, of 32 guns, Capt.HmLyEtt : left there the above Ships, and the Ship Amsterdam Packet, Capt. HENRY GREY, from New-York, lying qua. rantine, of which eleven days had expired; sailed from Lisbon the ult. in company with the Ship Nile, of Plymouth, hound to Liverpool, and parted with her two days slier. Ou the day the left Lisbon, spoke ills Majesty's Ship Cynthia, of 18 gins, Captain DICK, from Ca diz bound to Lisbon i 3d instant, spoke the B r i g 111;ner'va, Captain THomrsou, from Tenerife hound to London, out twenty-eight days, all well; and a Transport Brig, No. 156, from Gibraltar for Portsmouth, then abreast of the Lizard. Arrived the American Ship Robert,—, from Philadelphia, with Indian corn and wheat, for orders; Brig London, MARTIN, and Brig Prilice of Wales, THE t trDDxn,from Penzance ; Brig Liberty, LUCKL EY, from Lynn, bound to Oporto, to stop a leak. Sailed the Sloop Eliza, HOCKER, and Fid WILLIAMS, both for Wales. DEAL, Oar. 5. THE Ranger Sloop arrived from the Nore, and sailed for Portsmouth. Came down from the River, the El;za Ann, Country Ship, bound to Madrai, and the Supth Naval Transport, ancllemain in the Downs. Arrived and sailed for the River, the Favourite, --, and Magdalen ; ADAMS, from St. Vincents ; and several other vessels from the West Indies. By the regulations now adopted with respea to the ships in ordinary in Hamoaze and the river Tamer, a great, ..saving will: accrue in the wear and tear of the Royal Navy. All the yards,. spars, running rigging, And gun-carriages, are to be stowed away in each ship in ordinary, and the boats, on being examined and reported fit for service, are to be placed. in the Captain's cabin, by which they will be preserved from the weather, and always be ready in case of sudden emergency. One of the Clerks of the Cheque of the Dock-yard visits in the day-time, once or twice a week, and cheques the Officers and Men of the ships in ordinary. Simi. lar visits are also made in the night-time ; and those Officers who are absent without leave are to be mukted of their day's pay. In consequence of these stria regulations, in case of a future war, the ships in ordinary will.be fitted for sea in a shorter time, and at a less expence, than heretofore. • The Mary, INGLIS, which is arrived in the Clyde from Charleston, in 34 days, sailed from thence the same day with the Hunter, Rocsgs, and left loading, all for Greenock, Diana,-CANtrs ELL ; Montezuma,. Ross ; Fame, FORREST. Yesterday the Principals of the Bakers' Com pany waited upon the Lord Mayor at the Mansion House to set the Assize of Bread, And it appearing by the retorris of the Mealweighe4 that very little variation had tal;,en place . since their last returns, he ordered the assize or price. of.

Cove C 1 'ardtg4/ MAC rzLIN'S strong but coarse and common-place Comedy of The Alan of the World, gave Coolcz an Opportunity of sheaving the variety of his abili ties last night in the charatler of Sir Pertivax, X charaaer which he has several times performed in London, and'in which he can always afford new pleasure. His portrait of this shrewd,, selfish, ambitious, venal charaCter, was vigorously drawn, and coloured with forcible humour. The precision and the ease with which he de. livers the Scotch dialect is his• least merit. The audience received him at his entrance very warmly, and gave him abundant applause through the piece. Mrs. H. JOHNSTON, for the first time, assumed the part of Lady Rodolpha Lumbercourt, and though she was not veiy accurate in giving the language of our Scottish brethren, .she did not want spirit and humour in her atting. 33kuzvrozi also, for the first tithe, took the cha. rater of Sidney, a charaeter of no, great import... ance in the piece, and in which he manifested plain sense and an ingenious spirit. Mrs. MATTocKs played Betty flint with so much charat . ter, truth, and humour, that she rendered it very conspicuous. This Play is a striking proof of the toleration of a former Licenser. If it were resented as a no— velty at this time, it would certainly not pass through the ordeal of legal criticism. Lord CARLISLE j. 3 said to be employed on a Dramatic Produdion, which is expeCted to come out at Drury-lane Theatre in the course of the winter. The Farce announced at Drury-Lane Theatrei under the title of A House to be Sold; is said to by a dramatic importation from France, brought to this Country by KELLY. We have not heard who is entrusted with the task of converting it into Ery.. gush manufacture but, for the sake of. the Thea.. tre, we hope it will be found to be of good .wear. Messrs. REYNOLDS, MORTON, and FAwc Err must certainly possess a high degree of dramatic re.. pute, for since they Made overtures for the purchase of SADLER'S `VEILS, several other bidders hav6 come forward, and the price it seems is 'n,lacit ad vanced. • DARLEY the Singer, who is engaged at Covent. Garden Theatre, has been abroad for so m e ti me . We have no doubt he will give his Songs with in— finite taste and feeling, having studied under the most .approved Masters in America. Coo - K - E's Hamlet has been most unmercifully' handled by the Critics, who if they had n:)t ex. petted too muck, would have been better pl wee/. From the uncommon bulk' of Mr. STEPHEIst KEIVIBLE, the Public haire reason io expel .hat his performance of Sir 7a/.,n Falstaff, will be, at least, a natural sort of representation of that charmer. We hear that it is wisely detprtniucci by the Mem. hers of the Bpard of Management at Drury-Lane, that in future no Performer 0)411 be cr;gaged ho is not able to read at sight, in case of necessity. If PgINCE WILLIAM of GLoocEsTEßcan.,ot get a R.tissian wife becaus e ' t h ose P r i ncesses , ea sior change the re:igion of their country, he pear- in some clanger of the crcat ALExAvotg. making him a Greek. Lord CAVAN was exceedingly anxious to trans mit to England, the beautiful Egyptian Coluron called C/eopatra's Needle, and we are sorry to learn that all his endeavours to effl.& it have proved. unsuccessful. Irian advertisement in a Morning Paper of yes terday, the Advertiser states, that he wants to purchase-a Genthmanty house. A well-known Quack of this town, who lately re* turned from France, on hearing a report that KEMI3I , had been introduced ,to BONAYARTF, declared that the report could not be true, as he himself had been admitted to the most co/fidenti.g/ intercourg with the CHIEF Como 1., who had never me' tioned KEmatt's name. It would be difficult t° suppose that pufng impudence could be carried t° such an extent, even by a Quack, if we did 1 1 ° C know how he speaks of his own wonderful medicine) and that he is the ridiculous hero of A ',soder% Comedy. This season three gentlemen shot 14 brace of birds in the Island of Mull, in seven days' spor t ' It rained the greatest part of the rime ; and thcY, never shot at a hen that had her young brood boil' her. Though the Monarch of SARDINIA appears to have little chance of any Indemnity for the loss o f Piedmont, he will still retain a very snug provisi"'''. as his Insular Dominion certainly fo:ms the smalit sV Kingdom in the World. A reduaion in - the price of Butchers' meat 15 much mote desirable than the redutilon of C" 10- nets, Lieutenant-Colonels, or even the Subalterus rn the Guards. In the charade r that has been given of the 1 06 Mr. Hsi , woRTH, Reaor of Graffham, who is ceeded by Dr. PAlta, it has been stated, that " he devoted himself' to the du tes of his sacre d Funaion." Whether this observatiOn is intended as an allusion to the Political Charaaer of his Soccer , sor, we know not, but we hope, at least, that will take a hint from it, and in his new Living avoid blending the Priest and Politician. Mr. RossoN being lately asked by an Amen Gentleman, Who was, in his opinion, the 6 “ ) ,, 5 .. voluminous Writer in the English language ?, swered very ingenuously— ,, I d ec l are , Sir, I ii )111 , Mr. Finis wrote more Volumes than any of there for I observed his name was signed at the eNd of almost every book I ever read." - leis Mr. RonsoN is unwilling to proceed al' ; °" travels to Italy, unless he can he accomponic 1 his friend Ter JONES, as he thinks he shall I?ar. occasion for the assistance of a scholard.
