AUDLAT) WE have received since our last Paris and ,Dutch Papers, the fornier to the 6th, and the latter to the oth inst. The most important faa which they contain is, that the Russian Minister M. D'Ou . BRIL, had set out from Vienna for 'Paris, and had arrived 'as far as Strasburgh on his journey thither. A report was circulated on Saturday that the EMPEROR of Rysst4 had signed a separate Treaty of 'Peace with, France, which we believe had some effe& in lowering the Funds ; but we must again caution our Readers against giving credit to these rumours, • which are obviously circu lated for the most interested purposes." We know that persons in France Whose situation gives them a certain degree of influence over the Press of that Country are engaged in deep speculations' in our Funds; the Public cannot therefore be too much upon their guard against these kind of re , ports, whether they are of home manufa&ure, or imported in the Foreign Papers: The Negotiation between Russia and France is carried on not only with the concurrence of, but in conjun&ion with, this Country ; and we" have the strongest reasons for Stating, that the most perfe& harmony subsists be tween the British and Russian Government's. There can be.no doubt that 13ottaraarz will use every effort to induce Great Britain and Rusiia to negotiate se parately with him—not only from the immediate advantage which he would derive from it, but because it might lay the foundation of a degreeof suspicion and distrust between these Powers, and prevent them from again cordially co-operating together. We may there. fore e: pea to find in the roreign Papers, paragraphs, s...tint, that all the, differences subsisting between France and Russia are adjusted—that a separate Peace has been concluded I:tween them, &c: &c. But these artifices are too gross - to impose upon His Majesty's Ministers, though they operate 'strongly upon the, fears of the credulous SpeCulators in .the Funds. The remainder Of the intelligence contained in these Papers is very .uninteresting. The Hanzburgh Mail . due" on Wednesday last arrived this morning, the contents of which will be found in a subsequent column. The French Troops in Germany have at length began to make , some movements which indiCate an intention of return ing to their own Country ; but we are convinced that a sufficient number will be left to enforce the . 'adoption of .130NMARTE's plan respeBing the al terations in the Germanic Constitution.' The Negotiations between Sweden and Prussia have not yet 'been brought to a favourable issue. His Swedish Majesty adheres with inflexible resolution to his first proposition respeaing the evacuation of Lauenburgh by the Prussians, and his Troops have advanced . to the Frontiers of Pomerania, to resist any attack which the Prussians may make upon that Province. The KINO of SrAix has issued an Order for shutting 'the Ports, of his Dominions against Swedish Ships. IT is still out of our power_to state the result of a late enquiry into a matter of great delicacy, interest, and importance ; but we are assured that the distin , guished subje6t, of the allegations has written in the most urgent terms to a great Personage, earnestly im ploring that he will? be graciously pleased to order the whole proceedings to be submitted to the world at large. Independently of all we have heard on this very extraordinary affair, and which fully con vinced us of the falsehood of the charges, such an application must be considered as a strong indication of conscious innocence and honour. THE purport of the Dispatches brought over by Mr. BAsilaco, the Messenger, who arrived in town from Paris on Saturday evening, have . not transpired. It is expected that he will set off on his return in the course of this day. All the accounts from, Holland confirm, the opi nions we long ago expressednn the sentiments.which the People of that Country were likely to entertain respe&ing the Monarchical Government to which they have since been obliged to submit. We Ob served, that Republicanishi was rooted in the hearts of the Dutch, and that it-was impossible to recon cile them to Monarchy. The event fully justifies all , - we said nothing can equal the disgust .which pre vails over the whol6 Country;, and. all the flattering accounts that were given of the enthusiastic,recep tion which King Louis - had, experience& were the mere invention of fawning Courtiers, or, rather were more probably fabricated in France. The new King was only received with any appearance of satis fa6tion by the minions who surrounded his Throne dejeetion, shame, and indignation marked the Con dua of the People* large. But it seems that. the disgust towards Monarchy has even been strengthen ed in Holland by the miserable Weakness which clia ra6terizes King Louts, who is a timid,. insignifi , cant, chargter.—The Dutch Navy in particular letl deeply sensible of the degradation which their 'country has suffered, and haVe shewn a strong dis position to mutiny., They have, indeed, according to some accounts, absolutely refused to obey the orders of the new ,Government, and have intimated, that if measures of force should be adopted, in order to compel them to submiSsion, they will remove their Ships to sea, and put them under the proteca tion of some other Power. It is impossible that this state of things can remain, and therefore BONAPARTE will find it necessary to send a considerable number of Troops into Holland, in order 'to confirm and se cure the loyalty of the Inhabitants. By a private Letter from Bremen we. learn, that recent accounts from Hanover mentioned a report, strongly current, that BONAPARTE had proposed to the Cabinet of Berlin to evacuate that Lleaorate, and to appoint - MURAT to the sovereignty of it ; stating, that he in tended to annex his present Dominions to Holland; in order to shew the Dutch People his gratitude for their ardent desire and earnest .entreaties that he would graciously condescend to let one of the Imperial House of BONAPARTE become their Monarch. Indeed it is the obvious policy of BONA PARTE to - cut . the wings of the Prussian Eagle, and to prevent it from king beyond the boundaries of Brandenburgh, as Well as to fortify himself, or his Deputy King, in the possession of Holland, by the an nexation of other dependencies on the power of France. Sir JOHN NEWPORT,' the Chancellor, of the Ex chequer for Ireland, set out yesterday for his seat near Waterford. It is bUt justice to the Right Hon. Baronet to say, that he has, during the whole of the present Session, been most indefatigably. em ployed in proposing measures calculated to ameliorate 'the situation of Ireland, and to' cement the Union which has been so happily established between the two countries, • . ✓ ~ THE IiAMBURGII MAIL, VIENNA,' JUNE 2.s.—The Counsellor of 'State, M. D'Ouß'Rir.; having received new instructions from St. Petersburgh, set out the day before yester day for Paris ; and it is not doubted that his mis sion has for its obje& a reconciliation between France and Russia : he will take his way, it is said, by Munich, Stutgardt, and Carlsruhe. The French General ANDUEOSS is appointed to superintend the giving up of the Fortress of Brannan. AUGSBURGH, JUNE 23.—0 n the 21st, 53 wag gons, with four horses, set out from Munich for Brannan; they will be employed in the conveyance of ammunition, &c. when that place shall be eva cuated by the French. To-day five waggons arrived from Vienna, each containing 30 'small casks of money, the produce of the contributions levied in Austria daring the stay of the French. This money is going to Paris. Dispositions are making on every side for the departure of the French Army. The Detachments of the Gens d'Armes and Cannoneers which were at Ulm, have already set out,, and the great Park of Artillery will soon follow. The Corps under the orders of Marshal BERNADOTTE will break up, it is said, about the end of this 'month. Immediately after the :departure of the Grand French Army the King Of Bavaria will, out on his journey for Italy: - JUNE 26.---Yesterday at five in the evening an Order arrived here from the Duke DE NEUFCHATEL for all the Gens d'Armes in this. city to begin their march the next day, and to occupy the great road Which leads byUlm in to the Countryof Wirtemburgh, in order to take the necessary measures for the pas sage of the troops. through Swabia, and obtain .the horses necessary for their march. To facilitate it; a magazine will be established at Geislincren which , is the more necessary as all provisions are excessively .dear,' and it is very difficult to procure forage for the horses. Brannau is still 'Occupied by the French ; the Cou rier with the official news of the surrender of .Cata ro is not yet arrived, but he is expeated every hour. According to all. appearances the head-quarteri.of Marshal SOULT will leave Passau next Week : pre paratory movements arc like Wise observable among the Troops in Suahia. Marshal NEY, however, is ►• still at Methmingen ; Marshal D'Avous'r. at Oettin gen ; the General of Division MORAND, at Nord lingen ; the General of Division DEBILLY, at Wal terstein ; ,the General of Brigade BRANARD, at Fis chingen, &c. Certain intelligence has been, received that no more Conscripts kc ill pass the Rhine, and a great number pf uniforms are conveying from hence ,r 6 Strasburgh. TRIEbTE, JUNEI6.—Thc Austri4nTioops destin ed for Cataro arrived here two or :three days ago.. They consist for ,the most part of Grenadiers ; and form a fine Corps of about 4000 men. To-day they have been embarked on board Merchant Vessels that have been put in requisition for that purpose. at this .Port, and will sail, if the wind continues fair, to slight or in the morning. The distance by land from Tri6te to Cataro, .through Dalmatia, is nearly sixty German miles; but as there is .no . good road. through the Province of Dalmatia, and the Coun try is full of high mountains, and provisions' scarce ; the passage will be made by'sea. General LAURrsTON is already posted with a 'corps ofTreneh Troops 'at Ragusa, in order to take possession of Cataro as soon as it shall be given up by the Rus sians to the Austrians. This may take place, should our troops meet with a favourable northerly wind, between the 20th and 24th of June, ' and, conse quently, the Courier who brings official advice of the surrender of Cataro to the Marshal and Mi- Oiister at War Prince ALEXANDER (BERTI.IIER) at Munich, may arrive here the latter' end of June. — The passage from Trieste to Cataro, with a favour able wind, is often made in two, of at most in three days ; though there have been instances of Ships, with x contrarywind,being two or three weeks before they could reach Cataro. 'But this spring we have constantly had the wind at north and north-West, and such is the case at present. , The affair of Cataro has caused us considerable perplexity for 'this month past. Four weeks ago we had an alarm that the French meant to seize on Trieste, and the , treasury chests, ammunition, ar tillery, &c. 'were put into reqUisition, and sent off towards Hungary: In a few days (on 'the 30th of May) a Proclamation from our Court4ippeared, for 7. bidding the entrance into our Port of all Russian and English Ships, without exception, and our fears in some degree subsided. Soon after, three Russian Ships of the Line, of from 74 to 80 guns, with a Frigate and a Corvette, suddenly appeared heft= our harbour, and anchored within a cannot-shot'Of the . Mole, notwithstanding the Prodamation ; as we were without the means of defence, the Artil lery having been sent away last week ; however, the Russian Fleet sailed away. MADRID, JUNE 1 2.—The Minister for Foreign Affairs, M. DE CEVALLOS, has signified to all the 'Foreign Ministers, by a Note of the gth of this Month, that his Catholic Majesty has thought pro per, in the present circumstances, .to shut his Ports against all Swedish Ships, whether Ships of War or trading Ships. 'Those now there may' remain as long as it shall be necessary to prepare for their de parture.

There being no King's Ships at Dominica at the time, the Governor put 40 soldiers on board the Duke of Montrose Packet, and sent her to -look out for them. When she discovered them, they were 'pursued by His Majesty'S Ship Wasp, and Attentive Gun. brig. They consisted of rimperia/e Schooner, of .5 guns and 130 men, His Majesty's late Sloop Dominica, and two Row-bciats. The Packet immediately joined in the chase, passed His Majesty's Ships, and after a run of about nine hours, got a,longside l'lmperiale, which she soon ca' tuied; and in the mean time the Wasp and Attentive suc ceeded in taking the other three., On board tlmpe riale was a French General, the second in command at Guadaloupe.
