SEPT. 5.-1.1 e• arrival,of the French Ambassador here, 4 ..hich is soon eipeeted, will re move the apprehensions of those who doubt the &n -obility of the Peace. Fears have been entertained for some time, that the execution of the Treaty of, Luneville would create a misunderstanding among the principal Powers of Europe. The Indemnities to be granted in Germany to the GitAtio DUKE of TUSCANY have not been . acceded to by the Court of Berlin, and there is a strong rumour of an Union .between England; •Ritasia, pnd Prussia, the bliket of which is to prevent the Partition of some of the StateS of Germany. On the other side, it is said, that the Era‘r , tßOß of GERMANY *ill form h new Alliance ; his Frontiers were fortified, and his Troops put upon the most respe&able footing ; eve ry thing seemed to announce that apprehensions are entertained on every side, but now the Genius of Peace appears - to have gained the ascendant. The People' f Austria have returned to the Arts of Peace, ;pd do not appear to expet't another War., ThC can!th) the highways, the public edifices, are re uairing. •"ae Government Paper rises in value, and the Public are now happily convinced ,tliat it was not in vain that government caused the solemn publiCation of the Treat; of Luneville, which un fortunately was not the C44;e with the Treaty of Campo Formic. The Plan of Defence which is nor; carrying into execution in the Tyrol, is not the result recent circumstances, but is part of a plan which has ;twig since been in agitaticn. It: is now more than ert:: necessary for the House of Austria to fortify the Tyrol in order to render it a bulwark against all foreign attack. A circumstance which appeared 'likely to *inter rupt the good understanding between our Cotirt and France was,. the embarkation of the TrooPs, in the English Service in our Ports. Our Politicians are astonished at the silence which France seems to preserve upon this subjeft. They are undci,ubtedly not aware, that a representation was made at our Court, that the embarkatioin at Trieste was contra ry to the Articles of the Treaty of Luneville. But when The _French found that - there were only three hundred men' embarked,' and that the Count pie BRIGIDO, Governor of the. Town, only aced passive part upon the occasion, confidence was im mediately restored between the two Countries.— Our Court, to . shew its sincerity, sent orders to Trieste", and all our other Ports, to forbid the em .barication of any more Troops in the English Ser vice. All vessels were also forbid to, leave the Austrian Ports for the purpose of sailing to E g ypt or Malta, or to furnish ;any ammunition on the account of the English. 'All these circumstances prove the pacific dispositions. of" the House of ' Austria. • - - 11 Vt.;CL, S'EtT. “..„-.Four Battalions of Prussian Infantry, 'a Corps of rOOO Hussars, and some Ar.- - riflery, have been put iomotion froth the Banks of the Ems and the Rhine, and are upon their march towards Munster. These Troops have not yet re ceived an order to occupy that Country : a Courier has been sent to Berlin to ,announce the Eleaion of the Archduke ANTHONY as Prince Bishop,of Mun ster. We are equally uncertain, and curious to know how this affair will terminate, in which the great Powers of Germany appear to take so lively an interest. It is said, that different Corps of Prussian Troops, who occupy different positions on the Right Banks of the Weser, have received orders to hold themselves in readiness' to, march.— General UNRuTH, who commands the Garrisons in the Margraviates of Anspach arid Bareuth, has received similar orders. ' Letters from 1 7 ;en/ra state, that a reform has taken place in several. Corps of Infantry.—The whole of the Imperial Army will be upon,the Peace, Establishment by the Ist of January, ISO 2. RATISBON, SEPT. 11.----There was no vote to day upon the question which was under considera tion, nevertheless the Ministers of Austria and Bohemia have received their instruaions, and it is thought will vote at the next meeting. His Serene Highne e ss the MARGRAVE of BADEN has remitted to the Direoory of the Euipire an invitation to the Members of the Diet to take into consideration the state of the City and Forts of Kehl and of the village of Stindbeim i in favour of whom his Serene Highness has interested, himself.—That Minister has also received a , letter dated the, : 4th of this month, at /kid, in Bohemia, in which his• Serene Highness expresses his surprize at the complaint which was made against him bY . Citizen BACHER. This Prince declares that since the signing the Treaty of Peace he has not suffered any recruiting 'either public or private for England. On the con. trary, that as soon as the Peace was signed he issued orders to put a stop to it totally. AuGSBURG, SEPT. io.—The Austrian Courier, EICHMAQUE, pasSed this morning through this place, on his road from Paris to Vienna. The Count - CossfizEL is daily expeaed, on his return to Vienna. Baron FRAUENBERG, who lives at Patisboti, is appointed Minister from the Elelor of Bavaria to the POPE. Letters from Inspruck state, that the Marquis of CitATH:gx had given the Order of Maria Theresa to three Officers, in the presence of the whole Garrison. _ _ The ARcHooicE JoHN, on the same, day, left that place for Kestein. A French Paper observes, that' the preient is the season when : Englishmen in the, Country break, their 'necks in pursuit of the delights of the chace, and those in town blow aut their brains, for the want of other amusements. The soul of an English man, says the writer, naturally gloomy and melan. choly, grows darker with the season, and he feels himself imoatient to quit life which Nature no longer embellishes.

There was rhoch humour and spirit in the Lydia Languish of Misc MELLON, and tyith a little more polish of mann'Szi, it would be a very griod performance. The w2timsical absurdities of Mrs. Afstlaprop were given with admirable effect by Miss POPE.

SHOCKtith ACtIDENT. — On Friday afternoon, about five o'clock, a Gentleman driving a spirited Ildrse- hi a gig down Edgware.:yoad, near the turn pike, the ,animal took fright, ran the vehicle against a post by the road-side, and dashed it to pieces. The Gentleman was thrown Out, and falling head foremost on the kirb, fraatired his skull. The horse ran down Oxford-street with the srtAfts bey hind, and near Bond-street took to the pavenient next Cavendish-square, and continued tp gallop there; overturning several persons Who unfortunately wore oh that side of the way, till he came to the corner of Princes-street, where, shocking to relate, he ran over two children belonging, it is .said, to an Atribassador, and killed the nureery-maid who attended them. The children wefe Carried into a neighbouring shop, and medical assistance procured. The horse ran as far as John-street; where he was stopped. MANSION Hottsi.—On Saturdai Mrs. Barring tan, wife of the famous George Barrington, was again brought up for examination, on a charge of picking a Gentleman's pocket. No person appear_ ing to give evidence against her, his Lordship com mitted her to gridewell for the term of twenty eight days. She begged his Lordship not to .send her there, as ,she said it would be the cause of her death: His Lordship told her, that she would be much better employed there than in committing de predations on the . • 4 new species of depredatidn has been begun to be praftised in the Inns of Court, just. about the dusk. of the evening, . and before the. watchmen are on duty :--:Two men go together to a Gen tleman's Chambers, one carrying a LaWyer's bag, with papers in it, as an Attorney's Clerk. If on inquiry they find the Gentleman is not At home, and that there is only a Clerk or servant in the way; they desire to leave a memorandum of the busi ness they called upon, and being; introduCed ' into a room for that purpose, one of diem secures the ser vant while the other ransacks the apartments — An attempt of this kind was mai& a few evenings ago, before eight o'clock, by two decent dressed. men, at the Charribers of Mr. WHITTARD, in Lincoln's Inn, who happening not to be. P.c home, they desired to leave s.pme Deeds with the servant ; they'were accordingly shewd into. a room, when one of them instan'.'y th-tew her violently on the floor, and by thrusting his fingers into her . month, - and holding her by the throat ; endeavoured to prevent her caasing an alarm.; hoWever, her cries were so piercing, that the villains thought proper to retreat with the . utmost piecipitation, having used the woman in the most brutal manner, and tak ing with them only two dretsing-gowns, which were hanging-in the passage. 'The knowledge of the following cure by the ap_ . plication of Ether, in preventing; he bad effects of burns, or scalding water, paeacularly in cases where the skin is not broken, may prove highly useful :—On ;Friday last a 1a souring man had an accident in pouring . a quantity of oil" of vitriol into a . glass, vessel containing salt, and water, by which it was instantly blown over his face, and he was completely blinded ; his forehead and cheeks -being momentarily vesicated. The first ten minutes spirits of wine was which appeared to do good, but on further consideration the evaporating effeds of Ether (which produce much more cold than the application; of ice) were thought of ; accordingly it was applied . nearly three quarters of an hour, by keeping the burnt parts - wetted and .blown on with kpair . of bellows. After about eight ounces of Ether were used, the man's sight was completely restored, and the bladders entirely done away, leav ing nothing but the mark and a stiffness on the. skin. Where Ether cannot be got, spirits of wine will be found an excellent substitute. .

Between one and two o'clock, on Sunday morn ing, Edward Wilson, Esq.

'He was brought to the Watch-house, and the same morning safely de posited in his old birth, where he was heartily • welcomed by the Gaoler! On him, up wards of forty new forged b an k notes ware found" upon him. He acknowledged that he Was the per son who planned the late escape from Kilmainharri, whence, it is hoped, he will not agoin depart with so little ceremony . • This is the second time Mr. Wilson apprehended this desperate ruffian, who is supposed to be the: strongest, and most determin.d villain Dublin has been plagued with for many years. On the former occasion; the moment tradstreq saw. Mr. Nv. enter the public-house where he was drinking, he attempted to fire at him, which he escaped, and, after a desperate struggle, secured him, although he broke from him out of the house, occasioned by Mr. Wilson being held by a virago, who had been drinking in his company ; he, how ever, overtook him, and with his own pistol, knocked 'him down. An epidemic diseaSe has occasioned a great mortality :at Liverpool, for this month past ; in ' one chit - tell-yard there has been weekly buried from one.hundred to one hundred and twenty persons . . This disease has reached Chester, but happily in a slight degree.

Last week, as Mr: Passam, of Hugglescote, Leicestershire, was out shooting; with his brother. in-iaw, -in passing through a hedge, the gun of the latter went off, and the contents lodging in Mr. P.ts thigh, occasioned in afew days his death. A battle was fought between two rigilizts, at Cosby, Cu Tuesday last, R. Dudley of that town, and Colston of W etstone. After fighting some time, the former re eived a blow on the side, which terminated the battle, and he died the next morn. ing. The deceased was a very stout young man, of a rude and quarrelsome disposition, and i 3 stated to Ilare been the aggressor in this unfortunate affair. J.
