FROM THE FRENCH PIPE ,S, FRAN,KFORT., AUG. 27.—As . this 'City is to become the centre of German politics, it is naturalhat 'sorts of reports should originate here, and'betnOre or less credited in "proportion as theyf' appear :to. well-informed men to be more or less:conforthable to the intentions which a great MOnarch - has mani fested, for the establishment of a permanent order of things in this country, so long in a state of disorder. The following statement is circulated relatii , e to the new States which are to enter into the Confederation of the Rhine : The Ele&or of HESSE CASSEL: to cede to the Grand Duke of HESSE DAItMSTADT the county of Hanau, and several Bailiericks of Upper Hesse ; to receive in exchange the Quarter of Gottingen - (in' the Principality or Calenberg, in the Elegrate of Hanover), L'Eichleld, the Principality of Pader born, and the . Sovereignty of Fulda. Waldeck, Correy Lippe, and other small, States, to take the title of King, and to accede to the Federation of the. Rhine. The Grand Duke of BERG to receive the Dutchy of Westphalia (which the Grand Duke. of HESSE DARMSTADT is to cede in exchange for the county of Hanau), the county of Mark, and the Prussian part of the ci-levant Bishoprick of Munster. He will thus have more than a Million ofsubjeas. The Principalities of Osnaburgh, Lingen, Teck., lenburgh, Itavensberg, and Minden, to form a new Grand Dutchy, in favour of the Duke of MECK BURGH, who cedes hi's States to the King of PRUSSIA. This Grand Dutchy will hear the ancient name of Engrie. The Duke of OLDENBURGH to receive the Prim'', talities of Hoya and Dieph o lt z; th e P r i nce o f AREM ERG that of Os-Trise. The Principality of Bayreuth to be inaorporated With the Kingdom of Bavaria; &c.. &c. The result of ail these changes will be to separate the territory of the Confederation of•the Rhine, by natural and military limits, from the territories of Prussia and Austria: These limits will be, to the South and East, those established between Bavaria and Austria by the Treaty of Preshurgh ; - then a line from Lgra, in Bohemia, following the, course of the Rivers between, Franconia and Saxony, to the environs of Muhlhausen ; , from thence a sort of military line round by the Kingdom of Hesse fb Holzmunden, on the Weser ;. and lastly, the Course of that river until it empties itself into the North Sea. The population of the Confederate : States, in the event of these additions will amount to ten This intelligence, however, must only be taken as it is, that is to say, as conjeEture, perhaps incon gruous, of a vast Plan which is at present the ob je& of Negotiation between a Northern PoNVer and the powerful Prote&or of Germany. It appears evident, however, from the position, of this City, that it would not have been chosen as the centre 'of the Contederation of the Rhine if it had, not beiu e'xpeeted that the Confederation would embrace Iteise and Westphalia. • The depot of Prus s ian r e c ruit s w hich was s t at i one d tit Neuwied has 'quitted that town, in consequence a the injuation made respe6ting it. PARIS. FROM THE iitGITS, OF TUESDAY, SEPT. 2. The Morning Post said, some days ago, that it was not probable the present Ministry could ever consent to Wake the English Nation descend from the degre of pbwer and glory to which it had risen, fák as to return tO the conditions of the Treaty of AMiens. This strange language is either an excess of extravagance; or an afThir of calculation. That judicious Writer sh*Ould have taken the . ,qouble to explain in ,what, and hoW, England is beOme' more powerful Since the rupture of the Treaty of Amiens. He vonld thereby have carried to the hearts,of tate Englishmen a consolation *of which they are in . great want ; he should have laid open to . those . blind men the fleurishit)cr situation which they can . i)bth!AieVe, and which they enjoy unknown to them- Selves. We'are Obliged to make up for his . bift here the eommentary-Wilkomewhpt differ from the . text: r` Upon recurring to the political Writings of thd tithes; the opiniouS of the MintsterS, and the Speeches frOtri the Throne, we see that England considered as the foundation of her greatness arid the source of flier .• riches, iches, the influence she exercised upon the taiinent, the commercial connexions: she had in . ithStatei, and the confidential relations she kept up in its Cabinets. If the people grew 'clamorous against a War both fruitless and devoid of objea ; • if public Confidence grew Weak—no better means could be found to encourage the One and to raise the other than to promise the speedy co-operation of Some Allies on the Continent. This hope haS more than once raised the dropping spirits of the Nation, and supported the credit of Alinistcrg.: But • this resource is nth loSt—it has , vanished like a dream. , There rein ins. at - this day no more to Etiglind on the Continent but declared enemies or impotent friends. A single wish of the Eriiperor of the French *ill suffice to repel frorri the Countries tubmitted to his influence both English' agents arid English tnerchandize. Enlightened politicians have thoUght, that;,On cenclu6itig the Treaty of Amiens, the Engliih Cabinet, yielding, to necessity, prated from that intiment this famous Treaty of concert, the eternal Monument of its shame, because SO fatal to the Allies *lioM it deceived: We 'are not disin clined to believe it. When; indeed, it placed so Much importance on its confidential relations; when it promised so much rtiOneY and so g reat sacrifices to set Europe on tire, it must have been convinced of its insufficiency to resist France ; and of the neces= sity of having supporters. It had then, or at least it thought it had, engaged in its cause Russia; Turkey, Germany, a part of Italy, &c. It placed its most sanguine hopes in this Confederacy. Would one have thought, that, after having lost them, England would find herself in a more favourable position than before ? No doubt it can only be the maritime situation of England which inspires some of her writers with so much pride. But this Power is much less for. minable to her Enemy than onerous to, herself. It can change nothing, in tbe state of the question. It is a vain phantom which has nothing fixed, which • presents nothing cousoling,:which ptibrds.nn secu rity for the future, which is vagueinowtain, and, a .. ;::ated, like the element upon WhiWit stands. This POW can be of no furtlaJr i nfejudiee to France .than to interrupt for a inom d en,t her % colonial rel 7 tions, and to enhance for her inhabitants the price of commodities which they cannot do without, and with which every English merchant is hilusel terested. that they shall be supplied. The fac,ility with which this constraint leas been borne for up wards of twelve years past is a proof cif the weak ness of such a means of attack. There, however, result from it, for French industry, advantages which this is not the place to lay. open. In this commer cial War :England has more expellees to bear and less prohta , to make. Upon properly considering the principle of power, one would find a prodigious difference between successes obtained by land and the most shining maritime vi Tories ; the formeraf ford solid advantages—the latter present only equi— vOcal results : the history of all ages proves it, and that of the late War confirms it in a more striking manner: On the one hand we see France quietly reaping the fruits of her courage, and of the genius of her Emperor, - extending and.consolidating her al liances, irrevocably founding the system which best, accords with her glory, with her tranquillity, as well asthat of all. Europe. Her strength is within her self, and nothing can change her fortune. Mole sua stat. On the other hand we see England, after many Maritime victories, having yet only an uncer tain and problematical existence. She can only do a slight, injury to the Enemy who menaces her with a mortal blow. The effed which one should expedt from viaories is safety ; England can en joy none but by Peace. The French Navy, which she always thinks she has annihilated, continually rises again, and gives her every moment un foreseen blows. Ue trade of England has just been attack-6'rib 171 the seas of the world. Now that her power is no longer founded on the expeaation of her having Allies on the Continent, England has lost every thing which presented to her a shadow of hope and safety. And when all the nations of kurope. are combined against her, what will be her resource ? This combination cannot be compared to the combinations uselessly organized against France; as the cause and the means are qUite unsimilar, the results must be totally different.— France must ,attain her end, because she is the primum mobile, the necessary agent, the central point ron.ud_which all the Planets revolve, because the in terest of the Allies will be common, and their ad vantages reciprocal. England bad no. such, guaran tee to give. Accordingly ,her situation is very far from being so 'favourable as it was at the period of the Treaty of Amiens.. But tcl. refute them is, per= hap., giving. too much importance to arguments of which the Authors themselves feel all the ridicule. This_pride can impose . .upon nobody—it is the.a ss , clad :n the lion's skin.. The secret aim of these political impertinences is to frighten the Ministry; if they yield to these popular terrors, .we most sin cerely pity a Country wherein the licenciousness of the press is produdive of such effects." PARIS, SEPT. 3.—Letters from Lisbon of the 16th of August, state, that on the 14th five Ships of the Line and a - Frigate, belonging 'to the Fleet of Lord. ST. Vmcm, entered the Tagus, and that several other English Men of War were off the mouth of the Rivet\ It is not known wiiat,can be the meaning of this proceeding of the English, who, at the same time that they have the air of respecting the letter of Treaties, violate the neutrality of Por tugal.; but .the same letters of the 16th announce, that the Spanish Ambassador and the French Chargé d'Affaires have demanded of the Cabinet of Lisbon an explanation of this unforeseen event. It is not doubted but that they will quit the City should they not receive an answer which may satisfy the Courts they represent.—(Journal del'Empirc.) SEPT. obedience to the orders of his Imperial Majesty, all that part of the Camp at Mendon, whiCh extended to the right on the plain of Viglizy -is moved, towards . Plessis. The three squadrons of dragoons Move into the interior of the Camp, which is to take a. square. fbrm. The Em peror's; tent .was this morning fixed, and placed in the centre. That of Prince BORGHESE, the Gover nor of the. Camp, retains the place which it before occupied. It is rendered remarkable by its height, by. : the,trees and the verdure. which surround it, by the wooden buildings serving for kitchens, and par- Ocularly by the tents of the General. Officers which 'are in its neighbourhood. Prince BORGIfESE, Governor of the Camp, gave a grand dinner yesterday to , all the Colonels. The Queen of Holland arrived at 'Aix-la-Cha pelle on the 27th bit. 'The King had previously gone on to :fullers. It is thought that their. Ma= jesties will stay some time at Aix-la-Chapelle and Spa, before they .return to their Kingdom. The-Count.

The following is an Extra& of a Letter dated from Porto Cabello, on the 3d of June, 'and addressed td an Exchange Broker of Paris,. by Captain HERVAIM, formerly Ensign on .board La Sensible French Frigate, and now Com .mander of La Reunion Schooner, fitted out as an. armed Vessel, with merchandise, at Martinique ; for the account of a house at Marseilles - " The rebel MIRANDA came hither some time since with an expedition from America; in Order to raise an insurreaion in the province of Caraccas; I immediately offered my services With the Schooner; and to a& with the Spaniards against him ; the Capt . :.

This skep will I* fir our mercantile expedition the grand channel of favour, and be produaive of incalculable abantages.'! PAIII;; SEPT. 4.—A French journal of yesterday published that an English Squadron entered the Tagus on the 14th ult. and that several other - Men: of War were then olf the mouth of the River. It is not irrelevant to obServe, that this-expedition was some time ago announced by the English Journals but in too vague a manner to engage: our attention at that moment. This entetprize, contraryto • the laws of Neutrality, would be to all intents and pur poses an invasion by force of arms. It is, however, easier to conceive the injustice of it; than to per ceive what reasonable obje& it can have. Can it be to defend Portugal, against whom-neither-France nor Spain was making any demonstration Of attack ? —ls it a consequence of that system so tong pursued by the English Cabinet, - to increase the calamities of war, both without necessity and without advantage to themselves ?—Or possibly another design more fatal to the Portuguese?—This is mystery which tiMe alone will clear up, and then only shall we be•able to say any thing further upon it. It is indeed na. tural to defend one's Allies as long as the War sub sists ; bat is it very politic or very loyal to ektet..d .its flames with one hand, whilst with the-other one is labouring to allay them ? 4itu.s.ig, AUG. 23.—The Prince of SAYN WITT GENSTEIN, Minister from his Majesty to his Serene Highness the Eleetor of HEssE,:has arrived here from. Cassel. M. D'ALorruS, Minister, from Russia to our Court, has set out for Leipsic. _ The Prince of HQHENLOH.E, who was to have come to Bet . lit), proceeded direflly from Ochringen to the Army. BANKS OF THE MAINE, AU,G. 29.—M. DE KNO BELS.bORF,GeneraI in the. service of Prussia, arrived yesterday at Frankfort from Berlin. According to a letter from Munster, the Prussian Regiments of Wedel and Scladen arrived on the 20th in that town. Lientenant;General DE BLU CHER has, enjoined the inhabitants to abstain in public from all conversation on political affairs. NAPLES, AUG. s.—. Some time since the inha bitants of Vesuvius have foreseen that it will - not be long before a new efuption takes place. They hear frequently, and several timesein a day, those noises in the monntaih which are to them signs of an ap proaChing convulsion. - The eruptions, when cori:•, pared with the lava§ of the more•ancient eruptions; are not so great as they have been, and this dirninii (ion will proceed in proportion as the internal fires .become weaker, and as the matter which feeds them is consumed. Every thing announces that VestiviuS is in its old age, and that this last remains of all the Volcanos Which have burnt in this'COuntry will he, like them,extinguished„andinat at no very:distant period. MoNT DE MARSAN, AUG. small poi has made the greatest ravages in the Department of Upper Garonne, and a multitude o f mothers now . shed.. bitter. tears, because .they cannot dissemble that they would not have lost their children if they • .had not neglected .or refused to vaccinate them.--.. This example, which is a great and terrible.le.sson, will, we hope, produce a salutary effea in the Department of Landes ; and . that the Mayors and .Adjunets, the Cur6s, the well4nforthed• •Propyle 'tors, the Physicians, Surgeons, and Officers of Health, will renew their efforts, in order that those children who have not had the small pox may be all vaccinated . without exception. The repcirts which have been made •by a great number of Phy sicians, Surgeons, and Officers of Health in - the three distrias, prove beyond . a doubt that vaccine inoculation is a gift of Providence . ; that all the op - rations have been equally successful ; that the chi], dren who have .been vaccinated. during the greater part of summer have not experienced any accident, and that they all enjoy good health. • EDINBURGH, SEP'T. 6.
