Still Holland is indepen d:!or .ind its cus:ems, its cAnitnerce, and its adnti. nt , tration, are directed by the will of its Govern. rue.nt. " Switzuland was occupied by our armies. We Oefended' it 'against the combined force of Europe. Its union would have completed our military Iron. tier. Still Switzerland governs itself by theael of mediat'ion, and by the inclination of 19 free and'in. d poul n t Cantons. " The union of the territory of the Italian Re , Mullis with the French Empire would have been 'livantageous for the advancement of our agticul. tore. Nevertheless, after the second conquest, we confirmed its independealce at Lyons. Wt do more t hi s day. We proclaim the principle of the sepa ration of the Crowns of France and Italy" assign ing for the periA of that separation, the moment when it shall become possible, without danger to cur People of Italy. "s We have accepted,and we will place on our head the iron Crown of the antient Lotnbards, tor the purpose of new tempering it, to consolidate it, that it may not be broken in the midst of the tem. pests which menace it so long as the kediterranean &tall not bx: restored to its pristine stale, " But we do not hesitate to declare, that we will tranorit this Crown to one of our lawful chit. siren,, natural or adopted, the, day when we shall 'be without alarm for that independence which we have guaranteed to the other States of the Mediter. ranean. " The genius of Evil will seek in vain for pie. texts to plunge the Continent into war. That which has been united to our Empire by the con. hticutional laws of the State shall remain so. No new Province shall be incorporated with it ; but the laws of the Batavian Republic, the Aft of Media tion of the Nineteen Swiss Cantons, and this first Statute o f t h e Kingdom of Italy, are constantly under the protedion of our Crown, and we shall never suffer them to be attacked. " In alllcircumstances, and in all transaelions, we will display the same moderation; and we hope, that our People will no longer have occa sion to manifest that courage and energy which they have always shewn in defending their lawful rights." ECTRA.CT or A - LETTER FROM AN orrtCER ON BOARD THE tioRTENSE, DATED MALAGA, ra. ISRUART '' We sailed from Toulon the 17th January, with anoth:.r Frigate and a:Ship of the Line, in chace of sortie Enemy's Vessels which were in view. The 19th, at rii4hr, being between five and six leagues from the . Road, we discriVered a Frigate eat our Squadron, which made signals us, but we were at too great a di,tance to understand them. The Ship of the Line which was nearer to her followed her, and from the datieness of the night we lost sight of them. Next morning we steered a southern direc. tion for the coast of Africa, in expectation of falling in with the Sqoadeort there. We were nut fortu riate enough to meet it. " When we had got within view of the Coast, we steered onr course to tliil west. We met nothing rerriarkable except very bad weather, until the Ist 'February% ljpon that day we perceived a great timber of ,vessels. We were not able to recon noitre them until the' 3d of February at night. It proved to be a'rich Convoy of the - Enemy, escorted by a stout Corvette and a Thimb. It being calm, we were unable to reconnoitre theta that night, but we kept mano.iuvring upon the Convoy. At five in the morning, our two Frigates having neared them, we had a distind view of the Ships of War. They hailed us. We answered with a broadside. They ;muted it ; and we lost sight of them until next clAy. • 0 , At ieven in the morning, having come up with them again,' the combat recommenced with great spirit. At half past eight the Corvette struck her ft, g . She w a s taken possession of by our companion, the Inewmpible Frigate, which had scarcely time to save the Crew !Clore the Vessel sunk. The Bomb had ceased firing, and attempted so make her escape. We attacked her anew. She fought until ten o'clock, when she struck. She carried 2+ t z.pounders, and laid 100 men to her crew. Inc Corvette carried 32 commodes 32-pounders, and her crew amounted to. 150 men ; she 'was called the-Arrow. The gne nly t t ight only in hopes to save the Convoy. Atter the engagement we pursued the Merchant V-:ssels, which had dispersed. They amounted to sz in number, on their way from Stnyrnis and Malta. We were able to capture only one, and not wishing to go Out of our course we sunk her. Het cargo is e*tiniated at 500,000 francs. The others were nearly as richly laden. Pi/Icor/v/4/e sunk some of them. As we have net seen her since the day after the engagement', we presume thS t s h e went in rithnit Of them.

We entertain, however, the most sanguine hop, that Europe is on the point of arousing from this state of torpor in which it has so long been sunk, and that some limits will at last be Fut so the menstroas ambi tion'and unceasing aggression of the Ustirper of the Throne of France.—The objedions which were made by the Cabinet of Vienna to BONA!' ART OS plan for ereetirt Lombardy into a Kingdom for one of his family, so far tram inducing him to abandon his intention, have only stimulated biro• to an at of greater injustice, and more inconsistent with the in terests and independence of the other Powers of ,Europe. Instead of seating his Brother Josaro upon the Thtone of Lombardy, he has boldly pro. 'claimed himself KING of ITALY—a title which certainly includes the Kingdom of Naples, the States of the Church, as well as the Citalpine Re public ; and we shall not be surprised to see the Inhabitants of Naples or of Rome hereafter treat. ed as Rebels to their lanvfal Sovereign if they presume to disobey the commands of the Cor. sican Usurper. The Ceremony of investing 80. NAPARTE with his new Kingdom took place at Paris on the zfith inst. ; on. which day he went to the Senate in great state, and being seated on the Throne, and surrounded by all his newly-created Princes, Dignitaries, and Titularies, TALLEVRAND addressed him in a long speech, and intreated his Majesty to comply with the wishes, and secure the happiness of the People of Italy, by condescending to Lwow their King. After this Address, M. MANSCUALCHT, Mi_ nister for Foreign Affaira of the Italian Republic, ascended the Tribune and read the Constitutional An, declaring NAeoLuoN the Ist, by the Grace of God, King of Italy, &c. The Crown is to de. scend to his direct and legitimate progeny, whether natural or adopted, to the exclusion of females ; but as soon as the Kingdom of Naples, the Seven Islands, and Malta, shall be evacuated by ,Foreign Troops, the Emperor NAPOLEON it; to transfer the Crown to one of his legitimate male children, either natural or adopted. After this Ad was read, Ma I,z I, MA tescna.e.cn 1, and a number of Italians who were present, . took the oaths of Allegiance. The Emperor ,and King (as ha now styles himself) addressed the Senate, and having made some observations upon the ei. treme moderation of the French Government, and enlarged upon its kindness in suffering Holland, Squit4erland, and the Italian Republic, to remain perfealy independent after. they were conquered, he expressed his gracious pleasure to accept the prof. feted Crown,. At the conclusion of this farce, he returned to the Thuilleries, where he received the compliments of his Courtiers on his new Dignity. But this is not the only increase of Dignity which has been heaped upon the BONAPARTE Family,— the Principality of PIOMBINO has been granted to the Princess Et,tzn, BO'NAr4RTE'S Sister, and her husband is created a Prince of the French Empire. IT appears from the latest intelligence received from Naples, of the r9th Feb. that the French Fleet was very much damaged, and many of the Ships re. turned to Port with the loss of their masts ; and that the Line.of.hattle Ship which one of our Frigates &laced into Ajaccio had got on chute in that Fiar. boar, and was completely wrecked. General CRAIG and his Suite embark in the course of the week on board the QUftli• A Gentleman who left Paris on the 7th instant, states, that, the common opinion among the Mem. bets of the Diplomatic Corps in France, was, that the Troops pnder General REGNI eu, on board the Inehefort Squadron, were destined to be landed at Suez, whilst these antler General LAURSSTON, on board the Toulon Fleet, were intended to oc. copy Alexandria. The reason of BotsitrAzTe's de. tertaination of again seizing on Egypt was said to be in consequence of the Information he had obtained of a Secret Treaty between Eng. land, Russia, and Turkey, according to which the Ottoman Porte has ceded to England, for fifty years, the Sovereignty of Egypt, upon receiving' from her an annual Subsidy during the same period of time. ,Malta, as well as the Seven Islands, were stated at Paris to be given up to 'basis, according to the same Treaty. It wae put duubted in France but that the Expediticua under General CR,►ta was fitted out in consequence of this agreement with 'Turkey. On board the ; Coulon Fleet, as - well as on board the Rochefort Squadron, it was understood, were embarked Corps of African Guides, composed of Refugees f rom Egypt, and commanded by Qificeti of BONA. rARTE's Matneluke Guards.

By the aottenturgh Mail which arrived yester tidy afternoun, we have received the following Ar. ticks : Lowell Er.ae, MARCH 3 , ..-.lllttliigenCe has been received here from Lubec, that French Troops have occupied all the villages in the neighbourhood of that City, and only permit such persons and goods to enter or come out as they think proper. GOTTINBURGH, MARCH i4.---Letters received from Lubec to-day confirm the accounts brought by last post, that French Troops occupy all the Villages round that City, and that not a waggon or cart with goods is permitted to come out of it.-- The object of this, it is said, is to stop all Engli►h Commodities. Great fears, however, are entertained that it is not the only one, but that Contributions will also be demanded. • ST. PETURSDURG}I, FRB. x7.—The winter has been uncommonly severe in this Country ; the waives have approached several towns and villages in flocks, and some of them have even entered the streets and taken away dogs. List night Tnaiß MAJIISTIES had a Concert at NVindsor ; the music was seletted from the works of HANDEL, CROFT, BOYCE ) KENT, &c.

Lord GARDNER did not leave town on Sunday ; his Lordship had yesterday a long interview with Lord MELVILLE at the Admiralty. Rear-Admiral THORNEROUGH left town on Sa turday for Plymouth. He is to att as Captain to the Fleet under Lord GARDNt R. It is intended to have an Admiral resident at Gi braltar,. for the purpose of expediting the equipment of the Men of War that may have occasion to come to that place. Admiral KNIGHT is going thither for that purpose. • Letters from Baltimore, reeeived last week, state, that the frost was so intense, that the ships there, owing to the quantity of ice, were unable to leave the river. THE TileATßE.—There was a considerable to. molt last night at Covent-garden Theatre, owing to the absence. of Coors, who was to have per. formed the part of Richard the Third. It seems that some of the printed Bills had announced Kam. at,a for that charatier last night, and COOKE. con. cei wing that he intended to resume it, had purposely kept away, but on refleCtinn, thinking that a mis. take might have arisen, had hurried to town to be ready for his duty in case he was wanted. He did not, however, reach the Theatre till past seven o'clock, and the audience were most clamorously indignant that the commencement of the Play was so long retarded. In this uncertainty Mr. KPMBLE was sent for :—he went upon the Stage, and told the 'Audience that he was unable to account for the absende of Mr. Coors, but that he was ready to perform the part, though he had 'not been in the habit of appearing in it for some time. The Audience readily assented; but by. this time Coax s had ar. rived. When he appeared on the Stage in charac. ter, the Audience would not suffer him to utter a word, and he was obliged to retire. KIMBLE then came upon the Stage again to explain the mistake, and the difficulty under which CUOKB had biboured in getting to town. Same people thinking he came to offer himself again in Richard, vehemently de. mandad Cooks, who again came on, arid was suf. feted to proceed without further interruption. On Saturday se'nnight, as Captain Gasstr, of Keynsham; was driving his eurricle in Temple. street, Bristol, between a dray and a waggon, he was upset by the former, and ran over by the latter ; he died on the spot. Early on Sunday morning a young woman, de. cently attired, was seen to throw herself into the pond, near the Grove, in St. James's Park, by one of the Keepers, who rushed in and saved the unfor, tunate woman from the fate that awaited her. She was conveyed to St. jaruees Watch.house, usher:, by medical assistance, she was restored to herself. She assigned, as a reason for this rash attempt, that she was pregnant, and in great distress. She lately left the service of a family in HerttOrd.street, May Fair. Information having been received at Bow.street, on Saturday, that gambling was carried Op to a very great extent at a house in Pall.nsall, a party of Of. fleets were dispatched Thither, late on Saturday night, for the apprehension of such persons as should be found there. The Officers, on obtaining access, secured 0 persons, with Hazard and Faro Tables, Dyes, &c. The room was thrown into confusion, and. several of the dyes, stnd other articles, were thrown into the fire, The offenders were lodged in" safe custody ; after which, the Officers repaired to a house in liisle.strees, where ; t other persona were secured, who were engaged in the same pernicious prattices, The Prisoners were examined yeiterday at ilow.street, and the whole of them were held to bail. A Court Mule! op Roe, one of the person. nest Setjeants in the Oxford Volunteers, charged with embezzling the money intrust:ed 'to him 0? pay his Company, found him guilty, on'Mnnday, and sentenced him to 'receive sop lashee", and to be de. graded to the ranks. ?Art of the fentepps wa ; car. tied into execu t i on o p Monday tneining, when Lieut:.Colonel Curzon remitted the tcmxitvtler of the unisinueut.
