BY YESTERDY's MAIL.
LONDON, JAN. 9.
OV R letters from Paris on
Thursday bring us curious in
telligence. The Marquis de la Fay
ette received information of a new
conspiracy being formed against the
liberties of the people.
He made known to the King what
he had discovered, but at the fame
time laid, that he had not heard e
mongh tojuttify him in any proceed,
ings.—He made further inquiries,
however, and learned, that a Mon
sieur de Favras, a gentleman in the
suite of Mons. the King's brother,
had been endeavouring to corrupt
the National malitia—.that a number
of high persons were concerned, and
that the plan was to corrupt 30,000
of the Paris Guard, with which they
were to seize on the Government of
Faris—to kill the Mayor, the Mar
quis de la Fayette, and other distin
guished patriots. Two officers en
gaged in the plot made this confef
uon, and on I hurfday last the Seiur;
de Favras, his wife, and two more
persons were taken up And the'
Guards were in pursuit of several o
thers.
Whatever truth there may be in
this new plot, it had a molt extra
ordinary effect in inflaming the pub-
Il<rmind ;' and in a paper published
on Friday,it Was averted that Mons.;
the King's brother was concerned ; 1
and that, in particular, a loan had
been negotiated in his name, and mo- ;
ney raised, for the purpose of carrying
into execution this new contrivance.
NEWYORK, MARCH 20,

" Lord Hawkesbury and Mr.
Orenville are now a&ually em
ployed in preparing the plan of a
Commercial Treaty wirfrour States, 4
which I doubt not will shortly be
fully matured and put in a train of
negociation." '„
Accounts by the Packet ftafe :~-
That there is a protpea of peace be
tween the Emperor and the Turks :
That the Imperial Chamber has is
sued a severe decree against the peo
ple of Lieges That 4th Jan.was ap
pointed as a day of publick rejoicing
in the Brabantine Territories, on ac- x
count of the fuccefs„of the Patriots ;
a medal is to be ftru& og The
French Assembly is proceeding in
the important business of completing'
the organization of the New Go
# rernment ;ahd making such arrange
ments as shall secure the freedom,
peace and prosperity of the kingdom:
The King of two Sicilies, is clipping
the privileges of the Clergy in his
dominions : Luxemburgh and Ant

troops : The Emperor is again sick :
A treaty is concluded between Pruf
fa&Poland—-and the French Nation

Extras of a letter from Lon. Dec. 26.
<^ The Lord Mayor, (Mr. Hart
ley) in his late address to the Prince
of Wales, after many loyal sentiments
of attachment auftegard, presented;
WS Highness with the freedom of!
tne city of London, at the fame time
offering up a fervent prayer that.—
« when it Ihall pteafe the Almighty
to call his Majelty to a heavenly
throne, his Royal Wghnefs may suc
ceed him and long live;" &c. In
the opinion of many he might as well
save said "we with old GEORGE;
dead and that you were snug in his
place." —The King is said to be per
feaiy cured of his infinity, but is, at
times, extremely pensive, and vqll
walk for hours together in his galle
ry, without speaking a word or tak
ing the lead notice of any person.
We are afraid Peg Nlckolson's
knife has made impressions upon his
brain that will never be effaced.".

GENERAL war, —3R GENERAL
PEACE, IN EUROPE.
A letter from LONDON, received
via newyork, informs, " That a
GENERAL WAR is expeded in
Europe; or a peace between Two
Empires and thp Turks. Great-
Britain, Holland, Sweden and
Pruss A, have entered into treaties
to prevent the Turks being driven
out 01 Europe, and are endeavouring
to make Poland join' them. In this
case, the Emperor and Empress will,
by a continuation of the war, bring
on them the whole force M these
powerful nations. Our best politici
ans are however of opinion, that the
l abfurd attempt to extirpate the Otto
mans will be given up, and that a
geaeraL tranquility will ensue."
FROM NEWYORK—MARCH 21.
"The attention of Congress, I
; mean the house has for these three
1 days been given to the fubje& of
Slave Trade—and the report of the
, feleft committee thereon has been
'clofely altercated. The fubje& is
important, and on its decision hangs
man interesting events > Thefouth-,
ern members view theirStatea as ruin
ed and undone, if any interference
takes- place. The other members
view an interference as an ad of be
nevolence, humanity and national
policy. How it will be decided It
know not. Both sides, I expe^,
will concede—and something will be
done to alleviate the condition of the
wretched Affiricans: But it will be
impossible to do any thing elFential.
and preserve the Union.
