FRENCH PAPERS. "(TIENNA, Nov. 7.—lt was on the 16th October that Austria signed the Csion of Saxony to Prussia. It has been remarked, that, for some days past, Prince Metternich has bad fregnent and 10 conferences with Lord Castlereagh and }'► 'Tice Talleyrand. It is said that on the 15th November an important declaration be OW lished 6y the Ministers of the Great - rowers. It 'ill contain the substance of the changes which have been decreed for Europe, and for Germany in particular. The 'military force of the new Kingdom of Hanover will be, it is said, exclusive of the - Guards, 40,000 men. • It is thought that the Duke of .Saxe Weimar will be created a Grand Duke.' BERLIN, Nov. 9.—Great preparations are mak lug. for the reception of the Sovereigns in this capital. The King of Denmark will pass some time here before he returns to his States. The most cordial . intimacy and friendship subsists be tween his Majesty and our Sovereign. Pants, Nov. 19.—This being the,Rirtli-day of Louis Le Desire, all the Royal Family assetnbled at. the Thuilleries at six o'clock, and dined in • AUGSBVIWIT, Nov. 12. —ll'hile the Barbary Powers infest the Adriatic, and harass the trade of all the ports situated in that sea, the Monte negrins make excursions into the country of Ra gusa, and - levy 'contributions, and the Govern ment is not in a state to repress them. GHENT. Nov. 15.—Tbe return of the American vessel that sailed from Ostend the Ist of this month is anxiously looked for. This vessel being a very good sailer, the Captain expected to reach New York in 24 clays. The dispatches which she. %rill bring back will decide upon the fate of the negociations between England jind America. The Americans, like the English, are great newspaper readers, which,must be the case where every body thinks they ought to take a share in the public affairs. .Among the American Papers, there are two Or three, which, following the example of the English Journalists, their elder brethren, declaim boldly against their Government. These papers, however, which are supposed to he written With• English-pens, have lost all influence with the federal party, which (wi - th the'exception of some emigrants from the mother country), sees with anti-patriotic attempts.—(Jour tics/-de Card, quoted in the MOniteur.)

We have received Halifax Papers to the 3d inoant, which are highly interesting, as they ex cite a strong hope that the Enemy's power on, the principal Lake, Oatario, has been overwhelmed and destroyed. The following is from the Nora Scotia cazEtte of the 2d Novemher " HIGHLY IMPORTANT, IF TRUE: " A igentleman who arrived in town this morn ing from New Brunswick, obligingly favoured us with die' following extract f: . oin the St. John Japer of Saturday the 29th ; ult. " A report reacheei. town last evenini;, from Vrederic,6n, brfiught by two gentlemen, who left that place oil 37ednesday evening last, stating, igs at an eztprds had arrived there from Quebec, with the pleasing intelligence of the capture of Sackett's harbour, and the wholi 'of CH.r;LTN that hand-bills to Y'S further ad,l, that effect were in Fredericton, which they endea voured to .obtain, hut could aot. - • " There are letters hi-town from Quebec to the 20th ult. but the .

Sincerely do we hope that this welcome.. in telligence may be confirmed, which if it should ba, there has been more accomplished at one blow by our Clmadian force, than the Americans have achieved diving the xvhole war. . . The following . paragraph ',11545 - satisfactory, and gives earnest of the vigour with which the war will be prosecuted on all points : " The British, have commenced building an other squadron for Lake Champlain. The keels. of two large ships are already laid down. With respect to the campaign on . the Niagartt frontier it appears' tli'at General IZALID has fdrmed a junction with Gen. B ROW N at Erie,' and'is nut in the rear-of General•DrtummoND's force; as was supposed. The following are - the chief articles of American news relating to affair's in ,that quarter " A Geneva article, Of October s.,.says—' -Two hundred United States Light Dragoons passed through this village on the 19th, for the Niagara frontier ; and yesterday about 400 United States troops, for the same destination. Two RegimetitS sif, Gen. DAVIS' brigade have , been dismissed by Gen. BROWN. The last Buffalo' Gazette has a re 7 ward of 1220 dollars for 'deserter.'. " CANANDAIGUA, OCT-4.—Ouy army remained at. Fort Erie on Friday last, and no movement was expected until General IZARD'S ,m . rival at ,Lewiston, for which place he took up his march from Batavia on Saturday last. " On Sunday last, about 300_ United. States dragoons, commanded by Col. BALL, passed , . here for Lewiston. " It is reported from the West, that Lieut.- General STEWART* and suite were taken Pri soners a few days since, while on their' passage from Kingston to York, by a gig dispatched from our fleet, by Commodore CHAUNCEY. *. The General has arrived in London. " LATEST FRONTIEIX NEWS. " From the Ontario Repository, Oct. 11.—From the West, we learn nothing of importance. Cien. IzAttn, has arrived at Lewiston with his forces.. The British are said to be at Chippewa.—Abort- 700 regular troops arrived at Fort Eric, from De troit and Erie, on the 6th inst. Col. FENWICK'S regiment of the light artil lery,- about 400 men, passed through this village yesterday, on their way to the western frontier. " From Buffalo, Oct. 11, we lean, that Gen; IzAno's army ouly crossed at Black Rock that morning, and was to move down the Canada shore on the following day,- with 8000 regular troops."

GE..I7.ERAL ORDERS'.--Head-Quartcrs, Sept. 17. "Inspector General's Mrc, 7th Military District. " Our companions_in arms have triumphed over the ene- Juy. At four o'clock, P. M. on the 15th inst. Fort Boyer was attacked, by a superior British Naval and Land Force, and the enemy was repulsed at all points. The Naval force con sisted of two ships from 24 to 28 guns, mounting 32-podMl carronades, two brigs, from 16 to 13 guns, mounting 24-pound carronades, with three tenders, all under the command of Com. Sir W. H. Pr o.acEv. The Land Forces of the Enemy consisted of lon Marines, under the command of Col. Nt criot,ts, 300 Indians, andcr the - command of Capt WoonetNe o? the British Army, and a 2-pounder and howitzer, under the direction of a British Captain of Royal Artillery. Our. effective force opposed to the enemy was about 120 men, of whom not more than 90 were engaged. • . "The leading ship called the Hermes, Commodore Sir ,W. 11. PIERCY, having approached within reach of our gnus, our battery opened upon her; the guns of which were fired in succession as they could be brought to bear; and at 20 mi nutes after 4r. m. the engagement became general. About this time The enemy on shore, with ,Colonel NICUOLLS at the headatf the marines. Captain , WOODIHNE, at the head of their allies the Indians, and the Captain,of the British Artil lery, with hie battery, Were put to . fight, by two discharges f grape and canister from a 9-pounder. At 5 r. sa. the Commodore.; ship swung head on, to our battery, when we were enabled to rake her so effectually as to silence herguns. Ilaeing cut her cable by, our shot, she drifted ont and • grounded stern on, within 700 yards, which again afforded us an opportunity of raking her, and we continued doing so while there was light to see that her colours were flying ;.just about sun-set the - other vessels cut their cables and stood off with a Tight breeze; under a tremendous fire from our battery: " At a qua.rter past 7, we discovered the Commander's ship to he on fire, and at i 0 P. fit. her Magazine blew up. 6 , We cannot ascertain the precise, loss of the enemy, but from deserters who came in, the morning after the battle, we learnlhat the Commander and only 20 men f scaped from the Hermes—her crew originally 170 ; that 85 were killed and wounded on board the Charon. Our lois was four killed and five wounded. .During the hottest part of the action, our flag-staff being shut away, the flag was immediately regained under a heavy fireof grape and canister, hoisted on - a sponge staff, and planted on a 'parapet. " This achievement of our brothers in arms is dear to us, and calls for and will have the gratitude of a grateful 'coup ! Our arms Ittve triumphed over the enemy.. The brave Officers, non-commissioned Officers and privates, under the command of the gallant ,Major Lawrence have done their duty, and in point of cool and determined courage, their con duct cannot he surpassed. There, was but one feeling per vading every grade and rank throughout the whole action, and that was, who should he foremost in the race of glory ; with them the post of danger was the post of honour.

Extract of a Later, daicd 117ashigArton, Oct. 14. .e‘ Congress sat with closed doors about two hours to-day—,it is generally conjectured on a confidential message from the President. A public counnunication was also received from the Presi 7 dent, giving the instructions to our Commissioners ;. whether they will he printed timely for yon to re ceive them by this Mail is Uncertain. They will however, be public much too soon for the honour . of the Government; The. people will exclaim, if the President dare to publish the folly and degra dation exhibited in these instructions, what must he the contents of thOse he dare not make. .public ? • "The President sets out in his first instructions . with requiring our Commissioners to obtain fi•oin the, British a total abandonment of the right of im pressment. He continues to -repeat this instruc 'lion, and raises and magnifies its. consequence until March last. He then changes his tone, and, step by step, .retraces and retreats, until June and August last, when the measure of disgrace is full —every pretence of the cause of war is given up. " I have seen many of the democratic Members of the Congress since the communication, and the .honpurable and patriotic hesitate not to say, that the disgrace of the,Cabinet is insufru.able. Brussels Papers to the 16th notice, that the in tercourse. between the Corumissioners at Ghent is mostactively carried oU,at this date, and thence gä into spxulations . 'upon the Negociations, &c. Which Are; of Cowse, unworthy of insertion, since we. are now informed of their actual state . by the scandalous' 'publication of, Mr. ArADISON. If our Mittisters adt • rightly upon this occasion, they will instantly break off a Treaty which is thus- made.., subservient to the party purposes_ of the Enemy's Government, and in which neither good 7 faith nor decency are observed. The followin; is rather important, from the same source : j 1 VIENNA, Nov. 7.—The French Minister, M. de Noati.LEs, it is said, presented a Note, in very strong terms; re specting a certain country. Important conferences are held daily. It is supped that the German Committee will tura its attention to the concerns of the Church in the Catholic part of Germany, which have fallen into such confusion in these latter times. Among the varioas objects relative te- a future German Constitution, and concerning which some gential principles at last will be fixed, none is score weighty than the renewed sanction, in conformity to the circitia , stiances of the present tiine, of an unliMited religious liherty, and the, perfect equallity of both religions in all States and Countries ofGer,. uval.—(llantb. Correspond. Nov. 15.) We cannot find room for the remaining ex tracts, which are, however, -unimpor- tan t. . On the French Papers received thisjuorning, we have only time to call the public attention to the extraordinary insertion in the Muniteur of an , article front a Ghent Paper. • We intended to have continued our Extracts from the American Official Papers to-day, but the occupation of our limits with important matter prevents us. 'Parliament is expected to adjourn next week till the sth of February. It is said, in consequence of the Revenue Offi cers being unable to 'receive the Duty due, and the Notices to Export required liy-thelqinutes of the Lords of the Treasury within the time there by limited, particularl§ at the Out-ports, their Lordships have extended- that time until the Ist of December next, to the great accommbdation of all Concerned. BREAD.—At a Court of Aldermen Ibis day, it was .ordered - that Bread should renfain without alteration in' price. . , . . Mr, CANNING and family remained wind-bound, on Saturday, in Plymouth Sound. WINDOB, Nov. 21.-Last evening her MA JESTY had -a select party to a Concert -of Antient Music in Elie Castle.

AUGUSTA and SOPHIA rode Out in the P,ark. . . • It is said, that a Meeting lately took place at Dover, forthe purpose of considering. what im provements might be made in that Port, as many of the Harbour Leases have expired,' and others will soon terminate. A Resolution passed, the object Of which was, to raconunend letting a con siderable portion of ground in front of the Bay upon building leases. It is proposed to erect a, National Hotel, and a number of Lodging-houses adjoining. IE this plan should receive the'sane don of •the Earl of LIVERPOOL, Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, with such improvements as his Lordship might suggest, the Tokvn and Harbour might derive great advantages, and the conve niences resulting, might be highly gratifying to travellers who pass through the place. tdi‘ptileiriea,saretj.v.,seeitAeLt_mhoaus ' Taruii vNe N do, A vI V .v 0, ith Mails fro'° from Surinam, es and sailed with the whole the .
