MoNDAY, wovamerft xg, 184. IT is with the most sincere pleasure that we coo. gratulate the Public upon rhe arrival of Sir Gaortct Rumaot,D in London. Upon an event so interest. ing anti so important, our R#aders must naturally be aniiou4 to be put in possession of the most au. thentic information, Many reports have been .cir. eulated, and many minute particulars have been detailed with great confidence, hut the most perfea relianCe may be placcii. upon 'the following state. ment : , Sir Getman, from the time he was seized at 'his country.betuse near Hamburg!), to the time of his . arrival it Paris, was 'treated with very great re.. spql, though he was watched with great circum... speaion, by the Commander of the Esciart, which attended him. On his arrival in Pariah he was mediately conveyed to the Temple, where they still continued to treat him with all the external marks of respect. e)o the evening of the second day of his confinement in the Temple, a Courier arrived from with an energetic Remonstrance to the French Glvernmenr, in consequence of so gross a violation of tie rights of a neutral and inde. pendant City, and with instretions to the Prussian Ambassador to demand the immediate liberation of Sir GEQrtos Rottsoco. This demand Borwtarra did not think it prudent to resist, and the next day Sir'Gttoact was removed from. the Temple and conveyed first to Boulogne, where he remained some days ; he was' then taken to Cherburgh, from wh;cll Port he immediately sailed in a Flag of Truce,•which fell in with the Niabe Frigate, Capt. Storr ; he immediately embarked on hoard the tied on SAturdly morning arrived at Ports. month. Previous to the departure of Sir GEORG s from the Temple, he demanded the restoration of hill - Wert, which had been delivered to, and of course examined by Foucire, the Minister' of Po. This.demand wal not ol4y refused, but he was compelled to sign a kind ul Parole, by• which he engaged not to return again to FLitnburgh, or to any place.within fife) , leagues of the French terri. The liberation of Sir Gfioitott we attribtite cipally to the twinly and decided tone adopted by the Court of: Berlin ; but we cannot bulipaie that the_ mere of Setting Sir GRORGE . at liber't.j %ill be considered by llit Prussian MAJ PSTY a% a sorticiettt atonement of the atrocious out:: r,lge cf which the Ftench were guilty. The Con tinental Powers must'he convinced of the necessity, and they now bee the efficacy, of adopting an ever. getic line of contind towards the Corsican Usurper, The KING of PRUSsI A has set a noble example, which, if the other Continental Powers follow, we may- still hope to ace the Independence of Europe restored. We mentioned on Siturday that BonAtAßVEhad put " 0 of the proteelion of the Laws of Nations."---Wct have this day received the French Poper of the, 6th, containing thii curious document, which we lay before oar keaders, from.

TALLEYRAND, the French Minister for Foreign -.Affairs, to all the Agents of His Majesty the. EmvPit.Ott of the Fat excx. Dated Aix.Ta.Chapelle, Sept. " You must, Sir, at the time of the publication of the Note of Lord IIAWKEsIBURY to the Foreign Ministers residing in London, - have observed the impression which that manifestation of the most strange maxims of politi;al morality produced 'at the Court where you reside. think it right agai n to recur to this subjea, and to send you, officially,. a Copy of that Note, and I charge you to have a conference upon .the subject with the Minister of -• " The system which the English Government has conceived, ofaholishing by degrees that tote. lary system of public sight which unites all civilized Nations, is developing itself with a►l alarming pro. gress. Will other Governments delay their re. bisrance to this attempt until there shall nv longer exist any moral tic which can preserve their rights, or guarantee their engagements ? it The 4),iwers of the Continent have seen with what audacity they trifle with the faith of the . most solemn Oaths. Treaties have even been •broken before they were begait to he carried into execution. The Maritime Nations every day expe. rience their tyranny. There is no theory of Navi. garion, there is no written Convention, which they have not scandalously violated upon every Coast, and on every Sea. Neutral Nations know, that even when they use the rights which are still left to them, with the most timid circumspettion, they are exposed to insult, pillage, and extermination. The Nations with whom they are at war cannot rely upon any reciprocal principle of moderi - qion or justice. Every existing tie between them and Neutral NJ. tions is broken.—The approach to the Coasts, the access , to Ports and ',lands, often situated at the distance of 200 leagues from their Squa. drops, are prohibited' by a simple Proclamation. Thus the English Government has hitherto opposed to* every Power, according to its particular po. sitiori, a system inj►:rious to its honour, and subversive of its interests. At present they attack them altogether, and give a vital blow to the morality, and, I may say, the religion of pub. lic right. " In all times, and in all Countries, Diploma. tic Agents have been held in veneration.---Mi. nisters of Peace, Organs of Conciliation, their presence augurs Wisdom, Justice, and Happiness. —They only speak, they only a& in: putting an end to, or in preventing the fatal differences which divide Pritsces, and degrade mankind,' by the miseries, she minders, and the passions which War produces. Such is the objeet of the system of 'Diplomacy ; and it is to the observation of the duties which' it imposes, and to the gc. nerally respeaable chsrseter of the . men who exercise that sacred charsaer , in Europe, that she enjoys tier present happiness. But these happy consequences • excite. the jealousy of the only Government which feels an interest in the ruin and disgrace of other Powers. They want Diplomatic Ministers to be the Agents of plots and of disturbances ;,vile Spies, the fument'ers of sedition,. and the prov, kers and payers of assassination ; and' they pretend to cover this infamous. system with the inviolability which belongo to the M r ediators of Kings and the Pacificators of People. Di p l om a. tic :Ministers," says Lord flAwriesauttsr, si ought not to Conspire against the pesee of the Country in which they reside ; but they are not bound by he same rules with regard to Countries to which they arc n s t accredited !" Admirable reStridion ! Europe will be covered with Conspirators, but the defenders of public. right will not be allowed to ci m i 4 s ilt. There will always he some local distance het weer' the Chief and his inferior Agents. The Mi. nisters of Lord HiswESOURY will pay for the crimes which they cause to he committe'd, but they will have .his deference for public morals, that they will not be at the same time both instigators and witnesses. Such maxims are the climax of audacity and hypocrisy. Never was the opinion of Cabinets and the consciences of people so shamelessly trilled w i t h. His Majesty the Emperor thinks it time to put an end to the farther progress of principles 110" subversive of social intercourse between Nations. " You are ordered, in consequence, to declare to t h e G o ver n ment where you reside, that his Majesty will not recognize the English Diplmnatic C o rp s i n Europe, so long as the Btitish Ministry 'shall not, abstain from charging its Ministers With 'any war. like agency, and shall not rest ski them to the limits of their funftions. " The miseries of Europe proceed n being deemed obligatory every where to observe maxims of moderation and liberality, which living j ust b, 41 b y rec i proc i ty , are only obligatory with respect to those who rub:silt:to them. Hence Govelnultnt the inequity of a Ministry which recognizes no Law but its ambition and its caprice: " The miseries of Europe proceed also from public right being considered under a'partial point of view, whereas it has life and strength only from its integri. ty. Maritime right, Continental right, the right of Nations, are not parts of public right that•can be considered and preserved in an isolated -manner.— The Nation that pretends to introduce arbitrary rules into one of those parts, loses all its claims to the •. privilege of the whole. The systematic infringer of the Right of Nations, places himself out of that right, and renounces all interest founded upon the Mdritime right anti Continental right. " His Majesty the ELI? ER oa regrets.his having to order measures which are a real interdidion• pronoun. ced against a State, lint all retleding men will be at I no difficulty to see that in this it is only necessary to ascertain fans.. The English Ministry, by the ge. nerality of their attacks, " have placed Coasts, Isles, kPorts,' Neutrals, general Commerce, in a state of interdkHon. In fine, they have just proclaimed, the piostitution of the most sacred and mist inciispensibre ministry to the repose of the world. His MA; litiTY thinks it his-duty CA excite the attention of All Governments, and to warn their, that without Few measures; adopted under , the convielion of Ole present danger, all the ancient • maxims upon which the honour and independence of the States rest, will be immediately annihilated. (Signed) " C. M. TALLEYRAND." A few further Extraas from the Paris-Papers to the 4.tli inst. the receipt of which we announced on Saturday, and from Dutch • Journals to the 14th, which we have since received, will be found in a subsequent column. A Squadron of Russian , Ships, with z4 b ooo Troops, is, it is said, about to sail from the' Black Sea to the Adriatic. It is evident that BONAPARTE is anxiously endeavouring to defend Italy against.an expected attack from Russia; and whatever some may think of the impraCticability of carrying on a War in Italy by Russian Troops, we have little doubt that that Country will not only become the principal theatre of War between Russia and France, but that there also a blow of essential importance may be struck against the power of the Corsican Usurper. The Camps in Holland are all breaking up, and the Troops going to winter quarters. , The Hamburg!, Mad due yesterday arrived this morning. The intelligence which it brings is of little importance, anti only reiterates the statements We have before had of the increase of the Vrench Ftirce in the Territories of Naples. His Majesty's Sloop Owiter,Commanded by Cain. HANCOCK., has taken, and sent into Yarmouth, the Coparr Admiral Mason, French Privateer, of guns. and too into, commanded by the noted BLACK. MAN. The Privateer had taken three Prizes, QUO of which is re.takrn, but ii ix feared the others got safe into the Vlie. BLACKMAN broke his parole when he was a Prisoner here before. St 4c e our last we have received American Pvpers the 2ist Ult. It is now stated, that lottisiana is to be ceded back to Spain, upon condition of the latter giving up. to the United States the Floridas 'in exchange, and paying a sum of money. How far this new proposition, tn:ty ultimately meet with the approba. roan of both parties we Cannot at present decide, but there seems great reason to believe that the difference's between the United States and S,,ain will at length be amicably settled. The Spanish Envoy in America has written a long answer to the attack lately made Upon him by Mr. Jnint'oN, the Editor of an American New paper ; which we intend to lay before our Readers to. Cil MOW.
