Some observations followed the communication of the Message, which was delivered by the Councill'ors Of. State RCEDERER, aita BRUM, but the discussion of it was fixed for the zoth inst. In the Tribunate it was proposed, that some-sig nal mark of their gratitude and admiration should be bestowed upon the First Consul, upon whom the warmest eulogiums were heaped. These Papers contain little else that is importan The French Funds on the 6th were at 57. zo. THIS morning a Dutch ?Vail arrived. By an article from the Hague, dated May 5, we learn that the new Departmental Constitutions of the Bata vian Republic, are about to be submitted to the People. These Constitutions were digested for each Department by a Commission of eight or ning of the principal Citizens named by the Council of State. These'.. several Constitutions are founded upon the same general principles, but adapted to the .par tiCular circumstances of each Department. After . having been reviewed by the Council, they are now. submitted to the inhabitants of each Depart ment, in such a manner as almost to prevent a pos.: sibility of rejection. The Constitution of each Department is to be deposited for NT)lic inspeaion in the principal places of that Department, for the space of seven days ; during which period every one who rejetts it, is at liberty to insert his name .in a register for that purpose.—At the expiration of the seven days, the Registers are sealed up; 'aid transmitted to. the Council of State, along with a List of the Citizens quali fied to vote in 'the Department. By : the proportion of the list and - •the- register, the approbation or dissent of each Department is to be decided. Thus every neutral person is looked upon as a friend tb the new Constitution ; in the true spirit of the ancient Republics, where it was a fundamental maxim of politics, that no Citizen could be neutral in - what concerned the commonwealth. • THEIR MAJESTIES and the PRINCESSES came to Town this day fr.om Windsor to Buckingham House.

The LADY MAYORESS'S Rout at the Mansion House is appointed to take place on Wednesday; the x9th instant ; every preparation is making .to render it splendid. The St. George's Volunteers were on Thursday assembled on their parade in Audley-square, to the number 0f . 500, and after a v er y h an d some a dd ress from the Earl of CHESTERFIELD, their Corn mander, they were disembodied. They gave his Lordship three cheers, resigned to him their Co lours, and deposited their Arms. A Decree has been passed by the French ConsUls, orating, that the publication of Marriages shall take place only on Sundays, conformably to the third article, second seetion, of the Law of the loth Sep tember, 1792, upon the Civil State of Citizens. Letters from Alexandria, dated sth of March, state that our troops there and at Rosetta, are in good health. A curious subscription has been entered into by our Troops in Egypt : it is to bring away the Obelisk, called cleopatra's Needle. The sum of 20001. is stated to have been already sub scribed for this purpose. ARCHERY.—A general meeting of the ToxOpho lite Society took place in their ground near Bed ford-square, on Saturday last, when they shot their first target for the season. There was a very nu_ merous attendance, and the day was uncommonly favourable for the purpose. -After a long contest, in which much skill was displayed by the numerous competitors, the 'prizes were thus adjudged : Captain of the Target, - - Mr. P LAt Zit, Lieutenant of the Target, - - Mr. BRADY, Captain of Numbers, - - Mr. CR UNDEN, Lieutenant of Numbers, - - Mr. BRADY.

A Message, couched in the same term's as that read in. the Sitti►►g of the Legislative Body, was borne yesterday to the Conservative Senate, by three Orators of Government. It kid for its objea the Treaty of Amiens, sent yesterday morning to the Legislative Body. The FIRST CONSUL has appointed the Abbe de la TOUR d'AUVERGNE LAURAGUAIS to the Bi shopric of Arras.—This Ecclesiastic is Nephew to the Great Marshal TURENNE.

The President : announced the arrival of three Orators of Government. The Counsellors of State RCEDEZER, BR UI X and E R.L I ER, ascended the Tribune. They Were charged by GO'vernment to cOrrirouni- case to the. Legislative Body tbe'Definitive Treaty of Peace between England and Frenc%. Republic, and to present a project of a LAw relative to its promul- The discussion of the Frojca was fixed for the zoth inst. • Bkinx having read the Articles of the Treaty, B ER . L/E R . read the following Paper : . " CITIZENS LEGISLATORS, " The Government addresses to you the Treaty which h as put a final period to the disSentions ,of Europe, and completed the great work of Peace. " The Republic.combated for its Independence— . _ _ its Independence is recognized : the acknowledge ment of every Power consecrates those rights uhich she had held from nature, and those limits which she derived from her vidories. "Another Rephblic has been established in her bosom, founded on the same, principles, and drawing from the same source the ancient spirit of the Gauls. Attached to France by the remembrance of a com mon origin, by common institution, and above all, by the tie of benefits conferred, the Italian Repub lic takes rank amongst the poWers of Europe, and amongst our allies,' supported by courage and dis tinguished by virtue. ". The Batavia,/ Republic is restored to a unity of interest : freed from that double influence which perplexed its Coui:cils, and distracted its politics, it has regained its Independence, and finds in the Nation which had conquered it, the most faithful guarantee of its existence and its rights. The wis. dom of its Administration, will preserve its splen dor, and the adive economy of its Citizens will re- store its prosperity. " The, Helvetic Republic, recognized without, is continually agitated within by Fadions, who dispute for power. Government, faithful Wits principles, will not exercise over an Indepentlent Nation any other influence than that of its Councils : its Councils-have, however, hitherto been unheeded, but it still hopes that the voice of wisdom and mo deration %vitt listened to, and that the neigh boUring Powers of HelVetia will not be compelled to interfere to put a stop to troubles which menace their 0wn , tra1 , .../uillity. 11 It was due from the Republic to her engage ments, and the fidelity of, Spain,' to make every effort to preserve the. integrity of the territory of that Kingdom. This duty she ftilfilled 'throughout the Negotiation, with•all the energy which circum stances would allow. The KING of SPAIN ac knowledges the fidelity of his Allies, and his gene rosity has made that sacrifice to Peace which they endeavoured . snare h;rn.- lie has acquire.', 1 .4 y thi, new claims to 'the attachment of I.;'rtfn . ;c, and a s title to the gratitude of Europe. Already the u rti of Commerce consoles his States for the Galan ities of War, and soon a spirit wilt inft:se inti) {:is vast . r eossessionS 'a new afiivity and a ::e‘i in d'as try. " Napier, a ncd Etruria, are restored te, tranquillity, and the arts of Peace.—Lucca has found rest and indepehdence under a Constitution which has destroyed all.ttnimositis, and united all hearts. - Liguria has fohnded, on the consent of all parties, the principles of its organization ; Genoa agai6 sees riches and ccomeierce enter he: Ports. The Republic of the Wand's is • as well as Helejetia, the prey of anarchy ; but the EMPEROR Of RUSSIA, id COE'rth with France, has ordered some Troops which hi; NA. pies, to be transported thither, which 'Will re_ sore to those happy Countries the only blcssin . ; which they want, vm.itranquillity, the &Amnion of falion,. and the enforcement of the laws; Thus, from one extremity to the other, Europe sees Peace restored upon the Continent and upon the,Ocean, and its happiness founded upon the union of the Great Powers, and upoa the Faith of Treaties.. " In America, the known principles of Govern .ment have afforded to Afartinico, Tobago, and St. Lucia the most perfeß security—they no longer dread those imprudent Laws, which would sprea.i. : devastation and death throughout the Colonies.-- , -- Theit only wish is to be united to the Mother Cowl - try, and they will bring back to . it, with theit attachment and confidence, .a degree of prosperity at least equal to that which they before enjoyed. At Saint Domingo great calamities have happened ; great evils'are to be repaired ; btit the insurredion grows less formidable every day :• TOUSSAINT, out. fortresses, without treasure, withput army, is no more than a Chief of Banditti, wandering from mountain to•mountain, - whom our light Troops are constantly pursuing, and willsoon destroy. • " The Peace is known in the /de of France and in India ; the first cares of Government have al ready brought back their love of the Republic, their confidence in its laws, and afforded every hope of Prosperity. " Many years will pass over us without viCto ries, without triumphs, without those splendid'ne gotiations which fix the,destiny of States ; but ant). they species of success ought to mark the existence of Nations, and above all, that of the Republic"; In dustry is every where reanimated, and Commerce and, the - Arts every where unite to efface the ca lamities of war. Labour of every kind call for the attention of Government. It will - perform this new task with - success, z 8 it shd.l . poSsess the con- fidence of the French People. The years which are to come, will be, it is true, less celebrated, but the happiness of France will increase, instead of her oh. taming that glory which she would now despise. (Sig►tcd) " EONAPARTE, " First Consul, " H. B. MARE; " SeC. of State." RANELACH4.—Last night a ,very genteel and no merous'company assembled at this place, to partake in the FL'te given. in honour of the Peace. The Rot'Linda was very brilliantly illuminated, and se veral transparencies were exhibited in ;illusion to the happy occasion. Most splendid fireworks were exhibited in the ,Garden by the' celebrated Frenchman M. Roccual, perhaps the finest ever displayed in this Country. A representa tion of the Illunlination in front of M. Gi - ro's house, was placed at the further end of the Canal,,which had a. very fine drat'. Tea, Coffee, And other refreslunents were plcntifuly served oir,, and the company did not separate till morning. Yesterday morning the PR rNcE of WALEs attended' a grand field-day of his own Corps, t he, Toth - Light Dragoons, o n Ashford Common, when the Regiment went through their various charges and evolutions, in a manner highly cothe.satislac tion of His Royal Highness, The 49th Regiment of Foot, which have for some time past been doing duty at Norman Cross, have received orders to return to their former quartas at Chelmsford. - Yesterday the Pi at Diamond was sold , Ly CHRISTIE, for 9500 guineas. Belcher and Burke, the two fighting heroes, have ken matched again at Newmarket, by two Geutle.: men Qt the.Turt, Capt. FLETCHER, and FLETCH ER REID, Esq. for two 'hundred guineas aside. Belcher has ; alr.ndv set off'into Yorkshire, to - pat himself into training,: accompanied Jae Vb l ;ird.; and Burke remains in, the neighbourhood of Newmar ket, for the same purpose,. The battle is agreed to take place within six we,s,,but where and when, will be . kept Ss - much a secret as possible. ' On Monday last, as a parry of q..mtlemen were amusing themselves in shooting rook, at the Mar. quis of DONEGAL'S, at West W3:conibo, one of the company la respettable farmer in the neighbour hood), climbed-up to one of the nests, in order to take. , out the young. ones,, when his Lordship's garne-kCeper, who had just come into the gardens,' anxious for sport, seeing the Lamer's hat near the nest, mistook it for a rook, and immediately fired at it; but being at some distance, and shooting in a hurry, the farmer fortunately escaped with only a few slight wounds in his arms, shoulders, &c.
