PA /7 TS, JULY 266 WE have already sliewn in, one of our late Num bers, the absurdity of those reports which were raised to alarm the Judges and Public Vunaionaties. We must now call upon the Manufafturers,to distrust those respeding a pretended Treaty of Commerce between • Ft'anee and England. The facility with which they take the alarm on such important subjeas, does no tredit •to their discernment. Are they not aware that the restoration of our Manufaaures ought to be, and is the constant ohjc& of the care and thoughts of Government, and that it will never forget that the grandeur of the French name can be only the re_ Solt o f a goo d co l on i a l s y stem , and the prosp er i t y o f our IVlimufaelures ? Let the 11/lanufa,tturers therefore not be disquiet. ed. If the Nation is great and powerful, if the Army is brave and well disciplined, the principal advantage Nvhich the Government can draw from those circumstances, is to assure to the . Nation, as well within as without, security and prosperity.— (Moniteur.) The French Troops have received orders to eva cuate rrre.veria. Thus are the wishes of that People fulfilled., who for so long a time sighed for complete Independence. Citizen STAFFER has made known to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, how much this faithful and generous condua on the part of the Republic, has filled with gratitude the Helvetic Nation and its Government : that Nation, whom History has always sfiewn to be a model of Energy, of Courage, and good Morals, will henceforth, fatigued with Revolutions, rally round its Govern- Ment, and sacrifice every passion to its Interest, its Independence, and its Glory.--(Mem;teur.)

ACGStURG, JULY ¢.—lf ire are to believe the C..rman Payers, yesterday was the day fixed for carrying into execution the Treaty ofLunecidle, and for concluding the business of the Indemnities. Yes_ terday the Prussian Troops stationed in the Mar grez•via ts of Anspacb and Bareutb were to march to take possession of the States in the neighbourhood of Nettrembh:;. JULY z6.—Three thousand Bavarian Troops this day entered Landsterg and Schlngall, Frontier Towns of 13avaria, under the orders of General bt ROI. Two thousand more are expelled at Fried ~rrr-, and another C.JI ps of 4. , t00 men, commanded l'y the Prince of YSEMBURC, will assemble at A 7 e2- .17, rg, on the Danube. All these Troops exped their last orders, to march into the Countries allotted as Indemnities to His Eletioral Highness. CONSTANTINOrLE, MAY 30.—The Porte ar •Pears to be Much alarmed at the occupation of Georg;a by the Russians, and the War which they are main. 'tamin g against Persia. Georgia, Miagrelia, and Guriel, cl3itned the Protedion of - Russia against MAHOMET KHAN-. After his death Russia granted Troops to Geo 7•- Z i4 ) for the purpose of maintaining it entirely in dependent of Persia. BABA KHAN, the new INc; of PERSIA., indignant at the measures adopted Russia, and the troubles which she had excited i n the Province .of Gbilan, compelled the Russians' to retreat to Tralack. A Russian Army then march. ea to ihtraram, passed the Der bent, and entered the lr.ovince of Gbilan.—BAßA , KHAN, on his side, m arched with a numerous Army to meet the Rus jans. If Russia succeeds in rendering the Em. Pine . of Persia tributary, the Empire of Constanti nople will be completely encircled by that immense power. Jt•Trta /4.—lt is now known for certain, that the Rebel Paella Gzußcl-OSNIAN has written to the CAPTAIN.

Tftt following resolutions were passed the r9th inst. by the Provisional Government of this city, at the instance of the Commissioners of our Bank: T., To make it known to those interested, that inconsequence of the payments made to the Bank by the Common Treasurer, the deficiency being_ en. tirely filled up, all the debts on bonds or stock which have been deposited in said Bank, are now replaced by hard cash, so that there is now nothing whatever in circulation but upon effedive real Value, and that thereby the Bank is now in that situation in which it was when originally ereded. 2. That the Common-Treasurer of this city he qualified, on behalf of the Assembly, to receive from the Commissioners of the Bank, all the pretensions which said Bank had, as also' the several bonds resting there in pawn, and to do the needful in this respell. 3. For facilitating the operation's in Bank money, at the re-opening of the Bank on the 3oth insi. to cause to cease the tax of a half stiver on each hun dred gilders, which was imposed the 31st March, 1796, by a resolution of the Municipality, on payments made in Bank money, and to fix it on the old footing, namely, three stivers for each sum which, per hanco, shall be transferred. 4. That the Superintendants of the Bank form a Committee, in conjunaion with the Commissioners, to revise the regulations and ordinances of said Bank, to make the necessary alterations in them, and, as improved according to the exigency of pre sent circumstances, to present them to this city Government for its assent. HULL, JULY z 6. ON Friday were committed to the Gaol at this place, Jonathan Beecroft, charged upon oath with riotously assembling, &c. with others in the mar. ket-place of this town, on Saturday se'nnight in the evening, and breaking into the shop of Thomas Weedley, Butcher : James Parkin, for riotously as sembling, &c. with others, and breaking down the stall of William Inmire, Butcher ; and also with aiding and assisting one Jonathan Beecroft. Robert Shay, for riotously assembling, &c. with others, and breaking the windows.of the Guildhall. His Royal Highness the Prince'of NASSAU has caused a notification in writing to be made to the clergy of Mentz, that though he has sequestrated the Revenues of the Religious Establishments be longing to that City in his States, His Highness will, notwithstanding, continue to the amount to the respective Members until their death. At the General Quarter Sessions of the peace, held in and for the town and county of Hull, on Thursday, William Milburn, for uttering counter feit money, was to be imprisoned twelve months, to find sureties for his good behaviour 6r two years afterwards ; and to stand committed until such sureties shall be found.—The Public are cer tainly much indebted to the magistrates of that town, for their vigilance and exertions for.appre hending and ultimately bringing to justice the above William Milburn, convieted of uttering counterfeit money :—being a hawker and pedlar of muslins, Sze. there is every reason to believe that he has long been in the practice of che at i ng t h e C ountr y, by availing himself of every opportunity in small change, &c. to obtrude his trash (with which the circulation abounds) upon the unwary purchaser.— When apprehended, at his Lodgings in HA, there were found, tied Up in a bundle which he carried about his person, one hundred and seventy-seven counterfeit sixpences, forty-eight shillings, fbur seven-shilling pieces, and half a guinea ; all which were produced in evidence by the constable who apprehended him, and were destroyed, by order and in presence of the Court. It is ,hoped that this conviclion may put upon their guard, persons (particularly those resident in the Country) who are in the habit of dealing with those itinerant chap_ men ; and it were perhaps to he wished, for the sake of public justice, that the punishm..mt could be somewhat more exemplary. On Sunday se'nnight as the Lancaster and Li verpool coach was going over Tarleton bridge, on its road from Lancaster to Liverpo o l, a b out one o'clock, by some me ans or other, the off' horse be hind gave a stnnible, and the coachman in endea vouring to hold it up, one of the fore horses flew on the pavement on the side of the bridge, which occasioned the coach to run on a stone, and mediately overturned it :---the outside passen gers (nine in number) were thrown into the river, being from the top of the coach to the surface of the water, fourteen yards ; but'fortunately no lives were lost, nor did any of them receive any parti_ cular injury, except one inside passenger, who had his head fradured, but is in a fair way of recovery. Fortunate!)-, at the moment, the other two coaches were. in sight, saw the accident, and immediately came to•their assistance. 11 , 1AxstoN - -HoUSE.--Tuesday Alexander W.it son was charged before the LoRD MAYOR, with stealing a quantity of liquor and sugar, the property of Messrs. Holms and Wilson, Distillers, to whom he was servant. From the evidence of Mr. Wilson,. the Prisoner had been servant in their house about 12 years, and in whom they placed grezt confidence, having ; discharged four or five of their se.rvants for this offence, but never suspeding the Prisoner.— They had given great encouragement for the pur pose of malcir:7 him Cahill' ; hot having reason to suspcd him, they searc h e d hi m on going home, and found the spirits And sugar upon him, which v..J, pro duced by the Constable. The Prisoner confessed his fault, hut said it was iris first offence. He was fully committed for trial, and the parties bound over. r T DtES.

CiliEV SECkETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT, FORT T. GEURGF, tirl, I have great satisfaaion in reporting, for the in formation of the Right Hon. the Governor in Coun cil, the following particulars relative to the opera tions against Timakull, which have happily termi nated in the fall of the Fort, and chastisement of its rebel defenders. Immediately after the affair of the eoth inst. I detached Major STRACHAN, Capt. NoBLF, and Mr. Deputy Commissary BEST, to Gooty, to prepare such heavy guns as the place af forded. On a minute inspcdion, only one iron twelve, one iron and one brass nine-poundee, were found fit for our purpose. By the strenuous exertions of the garrison, these guns were brought down from the rock, and zso rounds of ammunition for each, with carriages, and the articles necessary to keep them in order, were got ready ; and with t hi s supply the Maj o r an d p art y arrived in Camp on the 26th. Fascines and gabions had been made here ; and in the night of. the z9th, a battery for six guns, against the North-west curtain of the lower Fort, was conctrutqed by Capt. CRO5lOll,l', of Artil lery ; and another for three guns against the East face of the Fort and Citadel, by Lieut. Fiecti ET, of His Majesty's 731 Regiment : the guns were also got into them, and at a quarter past six o'clock yesterday morning, both opened with the best possible effeet. In the course of the day, the fire of Lieut. FITCHET'S battery effected a praCtica. ble breach in the lower wall, and at the same time opened the face of the Citadel ; while that from Cap. tain CROSD LL'S made a breach it) the curtain suf ficiently wide for a Company ro enter abreast.— These desirable objeits being attained, the Line turned out at half past three in the afternoon, and the Storming Parties were formed in the following order : That for the North-west breach under Lieutetrant-tolonel DAv ts, seconded by Major STRACHAN, consisting of the flank and two Bat talion Companies of His Majesty's 73d Regiment ; one Company of the ed Battalion of the 4th Regi. went ; and four Companies of the•lst Battalion of the zth Regiment, Native, flanked by forty volunteer dismounted dragoons of His Majesty's egth Regil went : That for the Eastern Breach, under Capt. ROBERT MUNRO, consisting of three Battalion Companies of His Majesty's 73d Regiment ; the Flank Companies of the ,zd Battalion of the 4111 Regiment, and two Companies of the 2d Battalion of the ssth Regiment, Native Infantry. At a quarter before four o'clock the Troops were ordered to advance, and in half an hour were . completely masters of th e pl ace , t h e R e b e l s h av i ng quitted the works, and retreated to their well built houses, where they fir some time individually defended themselves : most of them were, how ever, killed, and of those who fled, but very few, if any, escaped the Cavalry, who surrounded the Fort. To the honour of the Troops, I must beg leave to add, that every woman and child was huManely spared, only two of the former, and none of the latter, having fallen, even from acciden tal shot. The wound formerly received by Lieu tenant-Colonel MONEYPENNY, deorived me of his valuable services on the present occasion ; but his place was most ably filled by Lieutenant_Colonel Davis ; and though it is difficult to discriminate where all have behaved in a manner so honourable to themselves, with such -perfe& unanimity, and so much to my entire satistaation, I vet feel it my duty to point out to his Lordship's notice, Lieutenant_ Colonel MONEYPFNNY, Lieutenant_Colonel DAVIS, Major STRACHAN, Capt. ROBERT MUNRO, Capt. CROSDILI., Capt. Noisir, and Lieutenant FITCHET, as Officers whose zeal and ability have shone conspi. cuous throughout, and to whose exertions I am particularly indebted. Much praise is due to my Aid-de-Camp, Captain READ, whose zeal and aaivity, during our various operations against the place, were unremitted. Nor can I pass over in silence the meritorious conduft of Lieutenant MAC LEAN, of His Majesty's 25th Light Dragoons, who on the several attacks of the 24th, zoth, and loth instant, stein voluntarily forward to accompany Major STRACHAN. The conduct of Mr. Deputy Commissiry BEST has also been much to my satisfaCtion. It gives me the most heartfelt pleasure to add,, that not a life has been lost on this occasion, and that the accompanying return (not received), of wounded, will be found to contain but very The Officors and most of the men formerly wounded, are doing well. A minute exlmination of the Fort, and the know ledge since obtained, enables me to add. that the at. t.tcki IvlaJur STRAcuAN, on the /4th inst. was by no means more spirited than judicious, for determined resistance must long ere•that have been the fixed intention of the Rebels, as it is now ascer tained that the several gates were previously built up. - The Potail, or Killeklar, of Timakul, has been hangrii, but the women, children, and such of the wounded Rebels as were collected after the assault of yesterday, have been permitted to depart. It is my intention to destroy the %vitae of 'the Fort, and I feel confident that this. example will effedualiy restore the tranquillity of the Adoni Pro vince. I have the Honour to be, &c.

Yesterday evening, about six o'clock, as some workmen were pulling down an old house in jer myn-street, nearly opposite Market -street, which had been uninhabited for seven years, one of the floors fell in, by which one man was killed, and three others buried in the ruins ; but they were af terwards dug out, and are in a fair way of reco- verin , r o .

SUh'I.IIER ASSigEt, HEIZTFORD There were only nine Prisoners on the Crown side, one of wh0..11 was capitally convined, viz. John Criswell, fir burglnriously breaking- and en tering- the dwelling_house of William •Kirby, at Essendon, and stealing from thence a sack of flour, three hams, a watch, some money, and sundry ar ticles, his property. The principal evidence was an accomplice, of the name of Lavveorti, who deposed, that on the i nth of April, he and Criswell, in corn, parry with a man not taken, broke and entered Mr. Kirby's house, at ten o'clock at night, and, after regaling themselves below, proceeded to the apart.: meat of the Prosecutor and his wife, two old and infirm persons, where with impr(Tatio.n, they de manded their money. Mrs. Kirby said, '' will you come to the di,:tressed, we have no minev. to give, we can scarcely maintain life by our in. descry." The Prisoner replied, "re know vou have got money, and money wewiil have." They then proi:eeded to ransack a chest of drawers in. the m.:111, and took from thence every thing they could find. They then fastened the prosecutor and his wife in, and went into the bed_roorn of their stn:, a lad, of whom they demanded his watch ; the young lad hesitating to give it, they beat him exceeding_ ly ; after which they left the house, the Prisoner putting on the shoes of the Prosecutor, .vhict: lion, th led e tape wi ti ) ie t tohisdte , eli(tl ;, and sub:;equent convica , were tied with being sworn to by the Pros :ewer's wife. The Jury re- commended the Prisoner to mercy, from the suppo sition that he had been led into the com:nission of the crime by the evidence, who appeared to be the worse charaeter of the two. The Judge, therefore, respited the Prisoner, till His is/Ljesty's pleasure should be known. The trials on the Pleas side were infinitely more interesting, and were mostly Special Jury causes. Major Brown brought his Action against JamnesGtus Stevens, a Farmer near Hertford, to dispossess him of his farm, in consequence of a breach of contral. • It appeared that the Defendant rented a farm of Mr. Brown, called St. Margaret's Farm, upon the ex. press condition, " that he should constantly keep and fold fourscore sheep upon the farm," which, it was alledged he had omitted to do. The evidence on the part of the Plaintiff proved this allegation to be correa, consequently confirmed the breach of contract. The Defendant, in re ply, observed, that the Plaintiff wished to get him out of his farm, and htd made this circumstance a pretext to ejel him. It was true, he had not kept four-score sheep constantly on his farm, but had provided excellent maiure in lieu of the advantages likely to result from the feeding of cattle, and that it was a case of extreme hardship and . oppression. Nothing, he said, could be set up as to the, bad management of the farm, and it was the inost un fair dealing that could possibly be, for a - Landlord to endeavour to dispossess an old Tenant, who had expended his money, and exerted his best skill in the improvement of a farm, from no other mo live than a conviuion that he could gain consider_ able advantage from the effeCts of such expenditure and industry. The Learned Judge, MACDONALD said it was either a breach of contrati; or it was nothing ; would allow it was a hard, case, but he could look only to the contraCt the Parties had entered into.— The Jury were bound to take the same view of the case, and it was for them to say whether the Defen dant had titled conformable to what he had bound himself. The jury retired for a considerable time, when they returned a f.rdiet fur the Plaintiff, observing, that the Lac4o compelled them to find such a rerdiitt. This trial excited considerable intere;:r, a> it was supposed to be not altogether unconneaed with electioneering differences. MANCHESTER, JULY 2 7.
