That this unheard-of event has caused a great deal of bustle among the Members of the Diplomatic Corps here,, is not suprizing ; but it was not ex. peeled that even the Prussian Minister would have joined . with the othees as he did, in demanding an explanation, and desiring an assurance from BONA.

STtITGARD, OCT: 21. --A Rescript of His Elec toral Highness, dated the 22.1 of September, has b.en officially published here; fifteen days ago, tend ing, by an extraordinary measure, to excludese. vend Members from the ...Secret Committee of the Provincial States ; at the since time an Order was atlikessed.to them from the Court, calling upon them to give an account of their management. The EleCtoral- Rescript is very, full ; the mealure which it prescribes is thus worded " For a long time our paternal care for the well being of our - dear and • faithful Subjefts. has been •diretted towards the administration of the Reventiea and Contributions deposited in the l'ro: vincisl'Treasury. This administration itr confided; according to the hereditary establishment, to a Secret Committee of the States ;' and . we could have wished that a regulac.• management had pre. vented us from interfering with severe measures, but, for several years, the presumption• of a bad administration is manifest. When we thought proper -to dissolve the last Diet, which uninten. tionally participated in an i.et injuring, one of the bases of the Const tution!lthis is to b: uarrsioael of the sums teat to Paris to the Bleaoral Prince), we . nominated a Commission toexamine the administra. lion 'of the Provincial Treasury. But the fanian - which has till now ruled the Assembly .of the Pro. , vincial Statea; as well as its Comtnittees,'and which , liaa,aiways • thwarted our views and projeds, still Opposed this measure. Although we had in. vited -the General Committee, as well'as - the Diet, to appoint Deputies to be present at examining the administration of the Secret 'Committee, these Committees, influenced by the aforesaid faftion, •refused it ; and the Secret ComMittee sufficiently aliewed that '4144 intention was• no other than to cover theit management with an impenetrable veil, and .to withdraw themselves 'entirely from our su. perintendance. •In order to" pot An end to dissipa.. lion of the fords of the States, we have maturely • weighed and considered' the advice of our Superior '!Colleges, and have decreed!, that an Extraordinary Commission shall proceed' against the Memlicr,i of thC Seeret -Committee of the Sta'tes, who ought to be regarded as the authors and ab:ttors of the opposition against the Sovereign, and who have par. ticipated in tUe illegal an concerning the funds of the. C6iintry I that, in Consequence, those Members of the Secterleominitteei' As , well as the principal ! -Funelionariels' attached to' the Provincial Treasury, shall be suspended from - thir functions ; that the administration of the Public Treasury shall he en. trusted provisionally to the remaining Members of the Secret Committee, nor iniplcated in the pro. caeding, as well as to the Members of the General Committee." • Amidst these differmees between the Govern. mcnt and the States of Wiatemburgh, intervened, as xse know, the letter of the Eeetoral Prince him. seif tu the Privy Ouncil and the Chamber of Fi. nitncet. This Letter, (lilted from Paris, - 21st July (it 'was :publiibed :in our Paper a few days azo), made a strong sensation at Court ; we may judge of it by the Answer of the 'StVerior Colleges to the Eleacral Prince, copies "of_,syhirti been publicly circulated. "The Members of these Colleges, among other things 'thus reply to the Prince; -•-- „ , 4, We have soother duties to fidfil towards ytturniihre;s, than the respect which is due.to the Son of ourNovereigir and , a member of the Electoral House ; consequently yam - High ncss will yourself be convinced, that we have no intiniatioi, to receive but from His Highness the EleCtor.

Neiclier could - we answer to your declaration relative to the debts; for it is , as olleosive trout the Illt?grholaSon,as it is little adapted to the ease,ol wlticti a inure profound knowletlgewould have prevent ed you from making mention.

We think it our duty to conjure you, as the first servants of a Stare. to w ni c h you belong--to conjure you, we say, by all that's sa cred in Heaven and on earth, by the duties of a Son to his' Father, not to aggravate the unfortunate consequences of the relations in which you are placed with Al°Ns&XO Nuua your Father; banish train yonr heart and from your conduct every thing that can complete the destfuCtion of the ties consecrate el by Nature turd by Providence, the cited of which would be irreparably to destroy your internal ttanquillity.: invoke the forgiveness of your Father, Whose heart you have Wee.. rated afresh, and endeavour tp obtain an oblislion of the past, and ad in such a manner that, if God shoUld sooner dispose 'of the life of our revered Sovereign than your own', every gorxl tVirteinberger may esteem in you a Successor worthy of his Father."_ The Eleaural Prince has quitted France, in order. to t iavel into Italy.
