IV .% wiying . tothemselves this verseof aino dern trage , ..y, 'they fear our envoys,not our soldiers,' they spu ; dark infrigues in the Courts of some Princes, and led them to shameful perfidies. Then, and only then, we saw victory Unfaithful to our standards she, returned to us at the battle of 1-Tanini, as if to shew to mankind that justice is not always lame, and that she sometimes strikes with . the rapidity of lightning. Artifices and di visions have been the . mMt powerful , at;iliaries of time Allies during this campio - n. They bring _to .France the means by: which i ' hey havesucceeded in Europe. They have-separated from us Princes who 9,ved every 'thing to us, They 'come to, try to separate the French from the Government-, :svhich is the soul of every thing. Yes, it: is the . hope of dividing us which alone supports,the rash enterprise of t!le Allies. They know that a people without a Goveinnient,..and m ai - y 7 without a leader, are at the mercy of whoever seeks their ruin. ,This thought directs all theatitarlsis of their artful policy. All hundre4 thousand Mery more, sqid one of their most cii ringuished'agents,.and do not give the French the Emperor for their Ge neral—we shall triumph.. 'The Allies in .the same manner srty to themselves, " Let us ' separate France front the Go:vernment; she will fall tin easy 'prey- to us." Happily their wishes in thissespect Cannot have any success. France remembers that the Emperor saved her—France knoWs the hand which closed the ; wounds of civil war, and re conelled,all parties—Tratke knows that a, peo ple ‘vhich should be wanting in` fidelity to its Prince and to its Government;.in the midst of imminent dangers, 'could expect only shame anti misfortunes from such a fault. France feels her dignit- ; she. knows that 'it is intended .to prescribe laws to her, to reduce' hey to disgrace, and to despoil he?, after having det•eivGd her by artful words. Thus, far from lending an ear to perfidiouS •nsinuations,slie will answer to the Al- Ties :—Re re from•our territory, or we will c:;ush 1 your soldi rs ; their presence insults us, their ex cesses revolt. us, and teach us what, we ought to expect from 'out hypotritical'protestitions. Ytiu . have reckoned on, our divisions, and you 'are de ceivt!d. There %yin he among iis onlyoue spirit, one desire, one will ; that is to make you speedi ly repass that river which you ong,ltt not to 'have passed, if there had been- any moderation in vont. pretensions. Finally, you will find all the French collected roupcl their Monarch for their . common defence. ST. DIE, DEC. 25.—According to letters from Colmar, the greater part of „the army of Prince Schwartzenberg had proceeded in the direction• of tile Canton of Bern. A column, on its march from Basle, seems to have taken the route of De letnont and of Bienne, by the vitiley of Montiers. NtsmEs,' DEC. considerable corps of troops is assembling under our Avails.. • GOTIENBURGIT BWOVACI.U]E_ BEFQRR TORGAL', DEc. 9.—The Governor of Torgau having- been summoned to surrender that fortress, requested a truce, in or der, during the stole, that the conditions might he agreed upon which should form the basis .of the capitulation, but the Goverrn prOposals were so little consistent with existing circum stances on either part, that the commanding Ge neral in Chief, Count Tanenzein, who in all cases so willingly unites the duties of humanity with those of his country, totally rejected them. The truce was accordingly broken off on the _6th of December, and on the-following night the fortress was so effectually cannonaded from all-sides, that the artillery caissons, in Fort Zenna, were totally burnt down, and Gres likewise broke out in seve rPl parts of the city. Yesterday, being the . Sth of Decethber, the Superi9tendaut Koch,' came out of Torgauas a Deputy from► the city, to the Commander in- Chief, Count Tattenzien, in the naive of the citizens, begiing the town might be spared. The commanding General, assured the ,Governor, through the said Deputy; of a truer for 12 hours, for the purpose of agreeing to a meet ing within that space, and whielt.took place this day. The proposals made by the Governor were, howel; - er, agai❑ so extravagant; :that' General Count Tanenzein not only, totally rejected them, but likewise gay.e commands immediately ro re co:•nmence the fire on the fortress from all sides, and which was accordingly excepted in such a manner, that the bombardment is. at this moment Much Heavier than it has ever yet been during the whole siege. STOCKHOLM,. DE.C. 27 —Yesterday evening, about 10 o'clock, ,the Cabinet Chamberlain, &c. 'Count Bra ce, arrived here at courier from the head-quarters of his Royal Higiniess the Crown Prinee, and chilivered to his Majesty the keys of the town of Kid: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has dispatched Lieut.-Ccn.

In Consequence, the following proclamation has been publiAcd- here : " Inhabitants of the Principality. of Hilde sbeiin !—After many vicissitudes, Von arc ,t last testured to' my -77'overuaient. , This destir,ation was the more natural %, nd desirable lor:yon.

The Board having assembled this day, to make further inquiry into the state of the garrison, pre viously to the opening of the port, have the satis faction to state to hiS Excellency the Licatenant- Governor, that there is every reason to conclude that the -garrison is relieved from the calamity with which it has lately been afflicted, and that the Public Heafth is now re-established. ' The Board therefore recommend the opening, of the port, arid issuing clean Bills - of Health to-mor row, as proposed at its last meeting. It appearing that the city of Cadiz was declared free of contagion on ,the Ist inst. the Board re commended that the quarantine on vessels from tlit'port.' be taken off, and that the restriction on the communication with Spain by land be -remov ed, as -the neighbouring towns have from the first remained healthy. By his Excellency Lient.-General C. Campbell, , Lieutenant-Governor and Commander in Chid in the town and . territory of Gibraltar. " Wheretts, the, period fixed on for observation, previously to the opening of the port, bas termi nated without a recurrence of the contagion, the public health of the garrison is hereby declared to, be perfectly re-established ; the port will therefore. be opened as proposed, to-morrow, the 23d inst., arl(l clean Bills of Health issued from that date.

(Signed) STOKES, A. Sec." MALTA, Nov. 17 —Sir Thomas Maitland, the Governor of Malta, has issued a proclamation, dated Nov. 13, 1813, stating, that for more than a fortnight no case of the plagu e had occurred in Valletta or Floriana, and there is every rea son to believe, that the time is fast approach ing when the inhabitants of the island may be relieved from all the restraint which has hitherto been necessary for the general security ; still, however, precautionary measures will bere 'visite to guard against its revival, with a view to which he enjoins several regulations, which ariy.person or perons disregarding shall be sub jected to the severest punishment the lase can inflict. FINANCE. The income of the Consolidated Fund for the quarter ending the sth instant, amounts to .11,352,0001. exceeding that of the corresponding quarter of last year by 1,014,0001. The charge upon the Consolidated Fund is about 12,000,000/. being an- excess of about 279,000/, compared with that of the sth January, 1813. The deficiency, it thus appears, is not more than 647,0001. whereas last year it amounted to 1,383,090/. The war taxes, after deducting 614,0001. carried to the Consolidated Fund to defray the charges of diffe rent loans, have produced about 3,829,000/. yield ing a surplus of 1,001,000/. over the, receipts of the corresponding quarter of t s ast yen. The pro perty taxes have prod uce d near 200,0001: more. The Customs have fallen off to the amount of 355,0001 but„ on the other hand, the Excise has experienced an increase of near 700,0001. We understand, thatin the January _quarter, about -409;000/, have been paid into the Excise for tea cttles, towards ' the \var taxes, and tut corral amount towards thc Consolidated Fund.
