STATE PRISONS
Doubts having been expressed with res
pcct to tile following atrocious Decree, and
some persons having gone the length of de
nying altogether that any such Decree has
been issued ; we republish it from the Mon
iteur of tiie 5th of last month. A more ter.,
rible tyranny uever was dovelopetl than in
the Preamble to this dcciee, in which wc
find it avowed that men, natives of conquer
ed or ceded countries, are kept in Fiench
prisons for offences anterior to such conquest
or cession, the offence, no doubt, of shewing
their allegiance to their lawful government,
by fighting in its defence and endeavoring to
preserve its independence.

“ A'afiolcon, Em/ieror of the French, K, ng
of Italy, Protector of the Confederation

“ Upon the Report of our Minister of gen«
oral police, considering,
*• Tnat there is a certain number of in
dividuals detained in the Prisons of Stale,
whom it is not deemed advisable cither to
carry before the Tribunals or set at liber_
»y
“ That several have at different epochs
made attacks upon the security of the Stale ; I
that they would be condemned by the Tii.
bunals to capital punishments; but that su
perior considerations oppose tjieir being
brought to trial.
“ That others, after having acted as Chiefs
of Rands in the civil wars, have been taken
anew in flagranti delicto, and that motive*
of general interest eq i.diy prohibit their be
ing Carried before the Tribunals.
" That several at : cither robbers of coach
es, or men habituated to crimes wliwi* r>ur
laws could not condemn, though they might
have the certainty 0j- tlieir guut ; and whose
release would be contrary to the interest and
safety of society.
“ '1 hat a certain number having been cm .
ployed by ilie police in foreign countries, &
having been unfaithful, can net*her be re
leased, nor carried before the tribunals with
out compromising the safety of t ie state.
" Finally, that some belonging to different
counti ies that have been united o France
are dangerous men. who cannot be brought
to trial because their offences are either
political or anterior to the union, and that
they could not be set at liberty without cotn_
promising the interest of the state.
“ Considering, however, that it is just to
be assured that such of our subjects as arc
detained in the state prisons are detained
for legitimate causes ! ! with a view to pub
lie interest, and not from private considera
tioits and passions;
“ That it is proper to establish, for the
examination of each affair, legal and solemn
forms ! !
“ And that by proceeding to this examina
tion, by giving »he first decisions in a pi ivy
council, and teviewing anew every year the
causes of detention, to see if they ought to he
prolonged, we shall provide equally for the
safety of the state am! die citizen ! !
VVe have decreed what follows; —
TABLK i‘ UK FIRST.
Art. 1. No individual shall be detained as
a state prisoner but in virtue of a decision
upon rhe report of our grand Judge, Minis
ter of Justice, ardour Minister of Police, in
a Privy Council.
2. The detention authorised by a Privy
Council cannot extend beyond a tear, unless
it be authorised hi a fresh Privy Council.

he is to he dismissed, and imprisoned for
six months. There are to be eight state
prisons.
April. 29.'
Dutch Papers to the 25th, with French
and German Journals of a late date, have
been received. We have* extracted from
them eveiy thing ot the least interest. Aw
article from Srvasburg mentions that very
large reinforcements ate proceeding to the
i Peninsula, and mat - a formidable train of
heavy artillery, destined to reduce all the
contumacious cities and lor tresses, is collect
[ing at Bayonne. Fresit circumstances trans
pile daily to give further sanction rothe pro
ject ascribed iO the Courts of Vienna and
Paris, of tailing upon the Porte at no distant
period. Tiie funner hasordered the forma
tion of a summer camp at Pest ; and the
French army has actually passed the Illyri
an frontier, under the pretence of punish
ing some irregularities on the part of the
Turks.
By a Koyal Order issued at Berlin, coloni
al produce is only permitted to be imported
at the ports of Swihemundc, Pollau, and Me*
mel, where the necessary inquiry into the
origin of the goods, is to be made by the Pi us
sian Committee of Trade, jointly with the
French Consuls at S.ettin, Konigsburg, and
Meutoi.
A decree of the King of Westphalia, di"
[ rects the establishment of no less than 12 bri
gades of Custom House Officers, to carry in
to execution within his territories, the
French continental system.
Letters from Konigsburg, of the 9ih ins
tant, stale, that in pursuance of the system
to be adopted throughout the Baltic, ilie
Court of Denmark has issued a Decree,
which is to be enforced with the nrnust rig
or, ordering that no neutral vessel laden with
colonial produce shall he allowed to p .ss tie
Sound, or to land her cargo on the Danish ter
ritory, which shall not hiive come from •• *.ne
part of America, or direct from the West
India Islands.
An article from Vienna states, that the
1 arks have made an inroad from Bosnia into
Illyrian Croatia, & attacked ail the positions
of the army under Marshal Marmont on
the frontiers. This will probably turn out
to be a met e predatory excursion of free
booters, but it is by no means unlikely that
it may be made one of the pretences for an
attack, by France, in conjunction with Aus
tria, on the Turkish dominions.
The Duchy of Lunenburg is excepted
from the cession made of the Hanoverian
territories to the king of Westphalia. It
will continue to be administered in the name
of Napoleon.
An article from Naples states, that an at
tack was made on the 22d ull. by 3 or <000
British troops on the Island of St. Maure,
near Corfu, and that the garrison had shut
themselves up in the fort, It is also stated,
that an attempt was made by the Fmplish on
the 26th ult. to burn the town of 1L ggio in
Calabri i, but that it failed.
The Prussian Military Establishment con
sists only of 40 OC'O men.
An article from Copenhagen says—“ the
English aie digging a canal in the isle of
An holt from the place where they build
their privateers to the strand. The garii
•am of the Island principally consists of High
landers.”
The Dutch papers reiterate the report,
that some propositions were about to be
made from the Court of Vienna to the Bri
tish Government, and add, that Count Met
teniich, the Austrian Minister ot b. ite, ist»
he employed oil this mission. It is also in
moved that the Emperor of Austria intends
shortly to visit Paris, accompanied by the
Aichdtike Charles.
l lie Prussian fortresses of (»!ngan, Cus

prevent contraband trade in the Dutch har
l»ors.
The King of Holland, to rcplv to the Ad
dresses of his Council of Si ate and legisla
tive Body on the 15th inst. said, that not -
withstanding the embarrassing circuinstan
ers ill which the State was, he f.-lt a livelv
pleasure in seeing himselfiii the midst cflii's
pei.ple ; that he had f.rought all his people
about him, to strengthen still more the ti *s
which united him to the nation ; aud that he
relics on the co operation of the t'Vo first
bodies ol the State for re-establishir.g the
public affairs, and fulfilling the stipulations
of the la'e treaty. Ilis Majesty concluded
with saying, that all grounds of complaint on
the part of France being removed, he expect
eel every support from his august brother, the
Fm per or of the French ; provided, never,
theless, that no fresh subjects of dissatisfac.
won were given.
The following is assigned in the Dutch pa
pers as the cause of hostilities between i. t
trench and Tutks:—A quart cTtivk place in
the fortress of Siseg, between the Ficncli
troops and the Turks, in which >hc la ter
were worsted. The Turks, exasperated bv
this occurrence, secretly ay smbled in great
force, and making a sudden outset upon the
French, took 3GC0 of them prisnuetSj whom
tltey beheaded or impaled. Marshal Mur.,
mont, the moment the news reached him
marched at the head of a corps, cnieflvcon
sisting of Croatians, carried the fortress o'
Sizcg by storm, and put every Turk in it to
the sword.
April 30.
I he French Legislative Body was closed
on the 21st inst. with a speech, of which
we have inserted the most material parts —
It was expected that seme notice would be
taken ot the war between this country and
France—No allusion, however, is made to it,
and England is only incidentally' mentioned
as having relations with Tin key, and ns be
ing soon about to have the ports of Spain
closed against her. Different persons will
interpret this silence different ways ; some
will consider it as anti pacific, others will
view it as not at ail militating against .he i
| dea that Bonaparte intends to make some
pacific overture. It is to be remarked that
the speech abstains from all abuse of this
country. The recent marriage forms a pro
minent feature of the speech. It is indirect
ly avowed, that that alliance, to which the
epithets of prosperous, holy, august aodetcr
nal are prefixed, has placed the stamp of le
gitimacy on Bonaparte's title, whilst it has
I confit med and consolidated the peace of the
Continent. There is no doubt tliatis rue of
the greatest acts of policy Bonaparte ever
did. So mixed and amalgamated is the Bo
naparte family with the sovereigns of l’,u
i rope, that the most powerful of them have
jan interest in supporting hi at upon the
|throne of France, and in insisting eveiy at_ 1
l tempi, to restore the Bourbons.
