LATEST FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
LONDON, April 28.
The copy of the Definitive Treaty to be laid before Parliament is printed both in French and English.
There are one or two variations, indeed material to be corrected. They lie between the French copy in the Moniteur , and the French copy printed here by authority. In the art. VII. in the stipulations respecting the frontiers of French and Portuguese Guiana, it is stated in our translation, 'The boundaries of the French and Portuguese Guiana are fixed by the Ariwari , which empties itself into the Ocean, above Cape North,' &c. the French word in the Moniteur being au dessus . In the English official copy it is, ' below ,' &c. The French being printed au dessous . From this we conclude that the Moniteur of the 27th, from which we translated our copy, has, by an error of the press, put au dessus for au dessous .
In paragraph three of article X. respecting Malta, there is a very important variation between the French and English copy, as we find them printed together. It is said—"The municipal revenue, civil, judicial, and other offices under the government of the island, shall be filled at least in the proportion of one half by native inhabitants of Malta, Goza, and Comino." In the French it is merely ' habitants ,' so that by the English ' natives ' alone are admitted; whereas in the French any adventurers, who may be ' habitants ,' may hold places. The French word ' habitants ,' certainly does not imply so much as the English ' native inhabitants .'
We observe too, that in article XV. respecting the fisheries on the coast of Newfoundland, there is a slight variation between the official English copy and the official French copy, and consequently our translation taken from the latter. After mentioning that the fisheries are placed on the footing they were before the war, it is stated in the English copy, 'the French fishermen, and the French inhabitants of St. Pierre and Miquelon, shall have the privilege of cutting such wood, &c. In the French, it is the French fishermen 'of Newfoundland,' and the inhabitants, &c. les Pecheurs Francais de Terre-neuve, et les habitans .
We have published the above separate articles, which has not hitherto appeared. It regards the novelty of an English copy. The variations above noticed are the more important, as between France and England English and French are of equal authority. The circumstance of the King of Great Britain being placed first in the English, and the First Consul in the French copies, is well understood. They stand respectively so in the respective copies, given to each power, so that in fact no recognised precedence is allowed to either.
The nomination of an Ambassador to represent the Republic of France at our Court has at length taken place, and the choice of the First Consul has fallen on general Berthier.  During the course of the ceremony in Notre Dame on Sunday night, Hebul, the leader of the band, presented the chief consul with the plan of the Festival, in which the Orchestra was placed in front; the Consul observed, "Let the music go into the tribunes; I will have a battalion of troops in front and rear, rangees en bataille ." The other remonstrated, that the music would be entirely lost; "That's all one to me (said the Consul,) I'll have the soldiers in front of me."
The Standards of the Consular Guard were to be consecrated at Notre Dame on Sunday last, with great pomp and ceremony.  Dupaty, the author of a piece bro't out upon the Parisian stage above 6 weeks or two months ago, called the Valet Maître , which was supposed to reflect upon the upstarts who now govern in France, and even on the Chief Consul himself, has been severely punished for this impudent offence. He was one morning loaded with chains & sent off to St. Domingo, not without the general indignation of the public at the treatment of a man of letters, in contempt of the forms of law and the rules of justice.
Lord Kenyon died worth 300,000l. all acquired by his own professional, and an unrelaxing system of economy.
BREAD. —Yesterday the Lord Mayor after inspecting the Meal Weighers, returns, ordered the price of bread to be continued the same as last week, viz. 10d.
the quarter loaf wheaten, and 8 1/2 d. the quarter loaf of household.
April 29.
We received this morning Paris papers to the 26th. They do not contain one article of much importance. The Dey of Algiers has ratified the Treaty of Peace with France. The French funds have fallen—they are 56 8 10.
The following was yesterday circulated from the Alien Office, and may be regarded as official: "Notice has been given at the several ports, that his Majesty's licence is no longer necessary to enable British subjects to go to France, Holland, &c."
Letters from Petersburg state, that Lord Carysfort is to succeed Lord Lt. Hellen at that port.
A letter from a gentleman at Cadiz to his correspondent in London, dated April 2, gives the following account of the agreeable turn which business has assumed there, in consequence of the conclusion of peace and the remittances from America:—"I have the satisfaction to inform you of the arrival of the money from Spanish America, so long expected. The Argonaut, Spanish man of war, is arrived here to day from Vera Cruz, after a passage of 52 days. She brings a valuable cargo, consisting of
Dollars 3,200,000 for the King. 4,119,259 for individuals.
Total, 7,313,259, Besides 400 bales of Cochenille, and 400 fers of Indigo.
"Three frigates, with three millions of dollars each, had failed for Cadiz before the Argonaut left Vera Cruz; and two men of war, the St. Peter and St. Fulgencio, with six millions each, were to sail soon after. We may therefore look for them every moment."
"This has been a glorious day for Cadiz; for the news we had from England was of such a nature that we were much afraid of a renewal of hostilities. Our satisfaction is complete. The moment the Argonaut was seen off Cadiz, an express arrived from Paris with the agreeable intelligence that every thing had been settled at Amiens. This has caused such a general joy and such a sudden change in the situation of Cadiz, that its inhabitants have already the face of peace and plenty. Our paper money was losing this morning 23 per cent. and is already come to 14."
Peace was proclaimed this morning.—At half past ten o'clock, the different officers, under the jurisdiction of the Lord Chamberlain, viz. the officers at arms, the sergeant trumpeter, trumpeters, drums and drum-major, assembled at the stable yard, St. James's. The officers at arms belonging also to the Herald Office, being habited in their respective dresses, and mounted, the procession moved from the Stable yard to the Palace gate, where the Windsor Herald read His Majesty's Proclamation aloud. The procession then moved to Charing Cross,
At the corner of Chancery Lane, the Proclamation was read a fourth time by the Somerset Herald, and the procession moved on to the end of Wood-street, where it was again read. At the Royal Exchange it was read for the last time.
The procession proceeded round by the pump at Aldgate, returning up Gracechurch-street, and formed opposite the Mansion-House to receive his Majesty's thanks presented by the Lord Mayor.
Never did we see the streets more crowded, nor the windows, scaffolding, roofs, &c. ornamented with more beautiful or well dressed women. Many persons had taken their seats very soon after day-break. Joy beamed in every eye—Pleasure illuminated every face—Beauty put on her most lovely looks to do honor to Peace.
At one o'clock the Park and Tower gun were fired.
As so much curiosity has been excited to see Mr. Otto's splendid illumination at his house in Portman square it may not be unsatisfactory to many persons fond of allegory.
From the level of the square rises a projecting colonnade of the Ionic order, with corresponding pilasters and garlands of various colours. The entablature, richly decorated, is divided in the centre by a tablet on which is formed the word "Amity."—The upper part of the structure is adorned by four pilasters, terminating in arches: the middle arch formed a separate body reaching to the cornice, which is delineated by colored lamps, from which
issue a very vivid flame. Above the cornice is a star of the most brilliant colors, its magnitude proportionate to the height at which it is placed, crowning the whole of this temporary fabric.
Before the side arches are placed two vases of antique form; the interstices between which are filled up with laurel trees, formed with green lumps, and the letters G. R. and F. R. surmounted by a royal and civic crown. In the middle arch above the cornice, is a large transparency, representing England and France, with their various attributes, in the act of uniting their hands in token of amity, before an altar dedicated to Humanity.—Over in the centre appears the word "Peace," with olive branches around it.
From this description some general notion may be formed of the grandeur and regularity of the plan; which in every respect is suitable to the happy event it commemorates.
A band of music will play throughout the evening in the square; and a party of horse-guards will patrol to keep good order, and prevent the confusion which might otherwise take place. We understand the English and French colours are to be suspended from the Balcony.
A private letter from Paris, in an excellent paper printed at Leyden, states, with a great deal of truth, at least as far as we can judge from our own private information, collected from various sources, the religious system of the Concordat, though it may please the people in general, does not please certain leaders of either side. The zealous Catholics are dissatisfied with the penury of the establishment, and the anti-religious are in convulsions at the very image, simulacrum, of a Clerical Body!
It is the intention of the French Government, in the event of the reduction of St. Domingo under the authority of the Mother Country, to hold out an encouragement to three thousand European families to settle there, for the double purpose of repairing the destruction of European manners and civilization and forming a counterpoise to the power of the Blacks.
It is asserted that the Austrian Government has determined, upon the proposition of the Council of Finance, to alienate for fifteen millions the Domains of the Crown situated in Bohemia, Moravia, Hungary and Galicia. This alienation is to be made by way of Lottery, each ticket to be 500 florins.
The Pope has issued a Bull, authorizing the existence of the Jesuits, as a Body, in the Empire of Russia.
April 30.
The Chief Consul is expected to make a tour through Belgium, and to stay a short time at Brussels, for the purpose of convening an assembly of deputies from the Belgic and Rhine departments, upon the subject of the commercial situation of that part of the republic. He will then, it is said, extend his tour to Amsterdam, the Hague, and Antwerp, the last of which cities will occupy his particular attention.
A letter has been received at Rotterdam from Alexandria, dated in the month of January, stating, that the plague having made its appearance at Rosetta, the English had evacuated it.
An article from Basle, April 18, says, they have received official intelligence, that the Valais will be separated from Helvetia, and will form a Democratic Republic, free and independent, of which the town of Sion will be the capital. The French republic guarantees its independence. It will be governed by a legislative committee, elected by the members of the legislature. France reserves to itself the right of sending troops through the Valais, for the purpose of communicating with the Italian republic. This news has produced the most lively pleasure in the Valais. The greater part of the French troops at present in Valais, will be withdrawn; one battalion only will remain until the definitive organization of the Valaisan republic.
The new constitution of Helvetia has been suspended by a decree of the Lesser Council, and an assembly of the most distinguished citizens is ordered to be convened on the 28th of next month at Berne. Among them we find the name of Mr. Necker. The object of this meeting is most probably the definitive settlement of the constitution.
That a measure of grace in favor of the emigrants is in contemplation, is now certain. In the Journal de Paris of the 25th, in which Roederer, Counsellor of State, is concerned, we find the following paragraph:
"The three Councillors of State, Roederer, and Fourcroy went yesterday at 3 o'clock, to the Senate, to prefer, in the name of the Consuls, an act of amnesty in favor of the Emigrants, and to explain its motives. It is expected that it will form the subject of a Senatus Consultum . It appears that the government has found, by the experience of two years, that there are no means to secure to the citizens unjustly placed upon the list, an erasure which they are justly entitled to expect and avoid the erasures insidiously obtained by real emigrants; insomuch, that it is condemned to the hard alternative of allowing the innocent to languish unredressed, in the chimerical hope of punishing the guilty."
Yesterday the bidders for the lottery met at the Chancellor of the Exchequer's, and proposed:
  Sprott and Co.  £. 15  2  6    Wilkinson and Co.  15  17  6    Paul Groves,  15  1  8    Bish and Co.  15  1  8    Solomon and Co.  15  6  10    Coff,  15  1  8    Shewell, Towgood and Co.  16  3  4  
The latter, therefore have the contract. The profit to government is the prodigious sum of 555,000l.
NEW-YORK, June 7.
(Communicated by a gentleman from Havana, arrived yesterday.)
In the Courier of May 20, printed at Havana: an order of the Governor appeared under date of the 12th May, that all foreigners should depart from that place in 30 days; that those who had been in the habit of doing business there should quit unless they should receive permission from the King to remain—unless this order was complied with their property would be confiscated and their persons sent to Spain.

THE Partnership of Samuel Snowden and Co. being this day dissolved by mutual consent, all persons having claims against said concern, will apply for payment to Samuel Snowden, who is authorized to receive all monies due the firm. MATTHEW BROWN, SAML. SNOWDEN. June 8, 1802.
The subscriber in announcing himself as proprietor of this establishment, takes the liberty of returning its patrons his most grateful thanks for the many marks of esteem and confidence conferred upon him when a stranger; and hopes that since a residence of eighteen months has rendered him better known, he has on no occasion forfeited their good opinion. Having entered into pecuniary engagements of high importance to himself, he would beg leave to remind his patrons of the expiration of the present half year, and to request of them the means of meeting his engagements with punctuality; as a recompence, on his part, he promises his best endeavors, zeal and industry to render his paper as interesting to them as their promptitude and patronage will indubitably be to him. S. SNOWDEN.
JEFFERSONIAN ECONOMY, Or a handsome way of paying an old Friend.
Every body knows that Duane the alien, supplies the public offices at Washington, with stationery. Three thousand reams of paper were wanted, or pretended so to be. Into large a purchase, economy would have dictated some attention to the price—But no—Mr. Duane is directed to send the quantity required for which he is told, before hand, he shall receive four dollars per ream. Duane immediately sends to a paper mill, and gets the paper at three dollars a ream. By this purchase which gave no more trouble than to make the bargain with the mill, he pocketed THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS!! Why did not our economical administration apply to the mill themselves; or at least make some reasonable terms with Duane for the supply; and not make him this blind offer. The reason is plain—Mr. Duane was to be paid for past services with the money of the people; and this was the mode adopted to discharge the mighty debt of gratitude due to this patriot. This statement may be relied on; it came from Duane himself, who boasted of his good fortune; as well he might. A wretch so bare of talents, and so blasted in principles, seldom thrives so well, unless it be under an administration so pure, so virtuous, and, above all, so republican as ours.
Gaz. U. S.
The letter, of which the following is a translation, was received lately by a gentleman in this city from his correspondent at the Cape. Where we unacquainted with the respectable authority from whence it is derived, we should be strongly inclined to believe it nothing more than a piece of mauvaise plaisanterie at the expence of the late General in Chief of St. Domingo.
New-York Editor.
Extract of a letter from Cape Francois, dated May 8th, 1802.
Toussaint came into town the day before yesterday with the sound of the trumpet, accompanied by about thirty negroes on horseback. He alighted at the Captain General's, and was desired to walk up stairs to his apartment. Le Clerc was not at home, having a quarter of an hour before set off in a row-boat to visit the ship- ping in the harbour. General Boyer, who represented him, received the General of the Rebels with all possible civility, and dispatched an express to the General in Chief, who made answer that he would come instantly, and sent orders to give Toussaint his dinner.
Immediately on entering the room this Brigand sat himself down, troubled, disconcerted, and with much personal embarrassment. He, however, endeavored to assume an attitude suitable to his dignity. Rocking himself on his chair, with his sabre between his legs, and affecting an
air of consequence he cast his eyes on the ceiling and then on the floor alternately. "General Boyer ordered the cloth to be laid, but Toussaint would not eat at table; he only accepted a bit of bread and cheese, which he ate in his chair. He spoke little, notwithstanding all the efforts he made to appear bold.
"The following are the only words he articulated distinctly: Why are all these people collected round this house? "—"they are the idle and the curious, General," answered Boyer, "attracted together by your presence." After rocking himself for some time in silence, and with a look of vacancy surveying every part of the room, said, " This house has not been burnt then? " The monster! what effrontery!—At that moment all the armed ships in the harbor fired a salute on the General in Chief's leaving the Admiral's ship. " What is that? " said the affrighted Toussaint, starting on his seat. The bare idea of Treason made him shudder. "Nothing," was he answered; "it is the General who is coming."—The General in chief coming?" exclaimed he, rising from his seat and pulling off his hat; " the General coming? " He then retired into the adjoining room, where he waited for him.
"Le Clerc came. He requested all the officers to withdraw, and the two Generals remained a considerable time together. It was 10 o'clock at night when Toussaint went out of town.
"I am indebted for these particulars to a friend who was an eye-witness. Toussaint is to retire upon one of his estates, and cause the negroes to return to the plantations. There is much talk about this; but I think he is the wisest who draws no conclusion; as he will not have the mortification of having given a false or rash interpretation.
"Yesterday the articles of the European peace were read, accompanied by martial music. The armed shipping and the arsenal fired their cannon on the occasion; and all the vessels in the harbor were dressed in colours. In the evening all the inhabited houses were illuminated. Modest rejoicings. The fire works will take place in a little time: but not in town, on account of the quantity of houses that are covered with shingles.
"A general and uniform mode is about to be established for the restoration of property, and for the taking possession thereof. Every legitimate owner may re-occupy his lands without any other formality than producing the deed of property or any act of notoriety.
"Notwithstanding all these fine things I would wish to be far from hence; for at the present moment this town affords no sort of resource; and, besides, the country is neither safe nor tranquil. All the negroes of Plaisance, have not surrendered. They continue burning the plantations and coffee on the glacis; but very few will escape, and I fear much for ours."
On the evening of the 29th April, when the illuminations took place in London on account of the Peace, the house of WILLIAM COBBETT, bookseller, in Pall-mall (the notorious Peter Porcupine) in consistency with the same spirit of anti-pacific darkness which distinguished it on the former illuminations for the signature of preliminaries, remained inexorably opaque. The mob with equal consistency, took umbrage, and vented their indignation on the windows, sashes, shutters, and every thing about the front of the house that was not impregnable to bludgeons and paving stones.
Price of stocks on the 30th April, at one o'clock, Consols 77—Omnium 4 1/2.
The Commercial Novelty of a French West-Indian, direct from the island of Guadaloupe, arriving in April last at Antwerp, occasioned a great number of speculations. It may not be amiss to recall to the memory of our readers, that since the signing of the Treaty of Munster, in 1648, now upwards of one hundred and fifty years past the navigation of the Scheldt being shut, no Foreign vessel, or any craft of burthen, was permitted to frequent this great port, once the emporium of Northern Europe.
ISLE OF SABLES.
Sable Island is about 30 leagues S. E. of Cape Breton, W. long. 50, 50, N. lat. 44, 15. It is very narrow, in the shape of a bow, in the middle of it is a lake, five leagues in compass, the island is not more
than ten. It has a sand bank at each end, one of which runs N. E. and S. W. It has lofty hills, which may be seen in clear weather 7 or 8 leagues off. M. de Lery intended to have settled a French colony in it in the year 1598, but as father Carlevoix justly observes, there never was a place more unfit for such an undertaking, being very small, without any port or product, excepting briars.
The government of Nova Scotia has lately formed an establishment on this inhospitable and dangerous island, for the benevolent purpose of relieving shipwrecked mariners, many of whom, heretofore, after being cast on shore, having perished from cold and hunger. The erection of light houses equally concerns the navigation of the United States as that of the British, especially the trade of the eastern states. The expences attending such improvements ought, therefore, to be defrayed by both governments.
Extract of a letter from Lexington, Kentucky, dated May 10, 1802.
"The Louisiana country being in the hands of the French will, I think make a favourable change in our trade to New Orleans. The nonsense of their coming to claim the country as far as Pittsburg is too ridiculous to be seriously thought of. The people of this country are as good soldiers for the country they possess as the oldest veterans in Bonaparte's army; and however we may prefer the politics of France to the politics of England, we never shall submit to the force or intrigues of either."

SIR, As the answer to the address from the Midshipmen of the U. S. Frigate President, who had acted under the orders of Commodore Truxton, has not yet been published, and a copy having just come to hand, you will oblige a subscriber, by giving it a place in your daily paper.
Norfolk, 16th April, 1802.
Gentlemen, I was honored this morning with your polite letter, dated yesterday, on board the U. S. ship President; and in reply thereto, after congratulating you on your safe return to this side of the Atlantic, near your connections and friends. I must beg leave to offer my unfeigned thanks for the sentiments expressed of me, in your friendly address—and permit me to beg of you, to believe me when I say, that I have always felt deeply and anxiously interested in whatever concerned you, or either of you; as, from an early period of your naval military career, I discovered talents and deportment, which convinced me, that in a reasonable time, you would become able officers, and ornaments of your country.
Whether it may ever fall to my lot again to command you (many of whom I have with pleasure noticed in the hour of trial, when fixed character showed itself) or not, be assured that I shall always feel a solicitude for whatever can tend to your happiness or glory.
I am affectionately, your friend,
(Signed) THOS. TRUXTON. Messrs. Murray, Leonard, Giles, Smith, &c. &c. Midshipmen on board the U. States ship President.
FROM THE BOSTON CENTINEL.
To the citizens of the United States.
WHEN our beloved WASHINGTON the father of his country died!—You saw with increased sensibility the universe in tears? Americans! How did your bosoms dilate and glow, when, at the first meeting of your political fathers followed the melancholy event, you saw the call for a MONUMENT worthy of the sublime virtues you hoped to perpetuate, universally applauded!
How then fellow countrymen, have ye permitted two whole years to pass since the noble and natural resolution was every where individually formed: and the traveller still to ask in vain, where is THE NATIONAL MONUMENT, sacred to Public and Private Virtues; to the manes of the illustrious WASHINGTON?
Columbians! You owe to the world, as well as to yourselves, an apology, or an explanation, for the mysterious delay of your acknowledged duty: Since nothing can be more true than that a mere difference of opinion, respecting the form of the Monument, or the mode of its elevation, is the sole cause. To prove this let us
agree at once to obviate all difficulty, by uniting in a simple plan to accord with the annexed now in operation:—
TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION, TO A MONUMENT,
Sacred to Public and Private Virtue, dedicated to GEORGE WASHINGTON, To be erected in the city bearing his name by the voluntary contribution of citizens of the United States only. The form and inscriptions, to be under the entire direction of three Trustees.
I. These articles of subscription for a monument to WASHINGTON may be opened in any district or part of the United States, provided that none but citizens be allowed to subscribe, and that no individual be allowed to contribute in his own name more than one Eagle, (or Ten Dollars) to the subscription fund.
II. The name of each subscriber shall be written in a book, and transmitted with the subscription monies to either Branch of the Bank of the United States.
III. To render the whole design as simple as may be, three trusty and well beloved friends, namely, Bushrod Washington, and John Marshall, Judge in the Supreme Court of the United States, and Benjamin Stoddert, late Secretary of the Navy of the United States, or any two of them, are hereby empowered and requested to carry the whole design into effect, in such manner as in their wisdom may be deemed most honorable to the memory of Washington.
IV. Should the sum hereby collected be more than sufficient for a Monument of Mausoleum, whatever the object of our respect may be called, the trustees are hereby requested to appropriate the surplus to increase the fund which Washington began, when in his last will and testament he virtually laid the corner stone of a NATIONAL UNIVERSITY.
V. The trustees are hereby empowered and requested to draw the subscription monies from the Bank in which they are deposited, at discretion, and also to deposit the original subscription book, either with the remains of Washington, or in the Library of the National University, founded by Washington. They are also requested to publish whenever they may think fit, statements in the important work hereby consigned to their care.

Messrs. Snowden and Co.
HAVING observed in your paper bearing date the 5th inst. a publication wherein a certain Baldwin Dade terms me ignorant and stupid indeed—I am really astounded at his audacity and impertinence, knowing him not to possess but little more understanding than one bordering on idiocy. He also observes that the suit mentioned in my notice is dismissed; I grant it—But it was dismissed in Fairfax Court to bring it in a place where I could come sooner at justice, namely the Chancery Court of Alexandria, which writ has been served some time since, as will appear by the certificate hereto annexed. As to the balance of his publication, I assert it to be fallacious in the extreme.
I must beg leave to add, that for the future I shall not occupy a moment of my time in writing contradictory to the fabulous assertions of said Dade, whose diabolical character is universally established. ROBERT ALEXANDER. ALEXANDRIA, June 5, 1802.
