HAMISURGH MML.

PARIS, AUG. 9.

The Russian Charge d' Araires, M. D'Oubril.
•irked up all his effeßs, and is only waiting for
;iasses to depart.
Wean assured that a plan is now drawn up for
tl,e creation of a new Port beyond Cape Grine:, aP
• ,dace called the rivulet des Anguilles. This posi-

LAI is nearly the same as that of Wissant, a port
callel formerly Iccius, and in which Ciesar em-
barked on the 20th of August, 52 years before the
Christian ins. At that period Cape Grinez µas
united to a part of the land which is now only a
Bank, called the Bank de Laine. The interval be-
tween this bank and land would form a very fine
road. In the present situation of things, the ri-
•ulet des Anguilles becomes more central. The
interval which separates Cape Grinez from the
Bank affords a convenient passage for going down
into me Channel, while the Northern extremity of
the bank affords one for proceeding into the North
Sea.

Etaples, Boulogne, Vim•reax, and Ambleteuse,
form by their union a complete whole for an expzdi-

tion so nume:nus as that now preparing. The road
a wt....v., v;v.a..x Jca Anguillci, is not ne-
cessary fur the expedition ; but the establishments in-
tense: to be formed there, will be very useful it fu-

twe, is it be tn.ide.a port of observation for the two
bc.t.. The atlivity of the Emperor has never been
suspended; and, were he occupied only with the ex-
pedition, the prodigies he h.ts created would be suf-

ficielit for him. Ambleteuse, which was chosen
by Vauban, as an important point, was pitched on
also by Cesar for completing the whole of his ope-
rations.

CA.ALslttiil, ♦VG. 3.
In the morning of the day before yesterday, Her
Majesty, the Queen of Sweden, accompanied by

her Serene Highness the Margravine, her mother,
left this city in order to proceed to Munich, whence
she will set out in the course of a fortnight with His
Majesty, the King, to return to Sweden.
HA:IDUAGH, AUG
It is reported at Stockholm, and on good autha-

rity, that Bonaparte has had the ir.solence (its re-
venge for the notice taken by the King of Sweden
of the arrest and murder of the Duke d'Eughien)

to hint to the Eleetor of Baden, that, if he did
not think tit to desire his son-in-law (the King of
Sweden) to quit the territory of Baden, an army of
30,000 Frenchmen would be sent thither immedi-
ately. It is well known, add the semr! accounts,
that the King of Sweden quitted Carlsehue rather
hastily, and it. is thus accounted for. He is s:iid
to he returning to Stockholm by the way of
Vienna.

THE BRITISH PRESS•

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY. Auovir 22.

One of the Hamburgh Mails due, artived yes-
terd.ty, with Papers and letters to the 1 Ith inst.
An article, dated August 6, under the head of Co-
penhagen, states, that the Russian Fleet is still
cruising in the Baltic. They also announce a fresh
instance of the tyranny of Bosi sI. A RT. upon the
Continent. He has expressed to the Eleaor of BA DLN
his displeasure at the humane, loyal, and spirited
condua of the King of SWEDES, in the case of the
murdcr of the Duke of ENDIVES, and threatened to
march a body of 30,000 Frenchmen into the Elec-
torate, if His SWEDISH MAJESTY were permitted to
remain longer in it. This is not his first attack
upon the King of SWEDES, as a subsequent letter
will shew.

If the contents of private letters with yesterday's
Mail can be depended upon, Warsaw is not the only
place, where the Members of BONAP•ETE'S Secret
Police are busy to destroy lawful Princes. Ac-
cording to report, !the young and virtuous K u.g of
SWEDEN, in his journey from Bohemia to Munich,
has narrowly escaped a poisonous draught prepar-
ed for His MAJEC EY by the accomplices of the
Poisoner in Chief, NAPOLEON the First ; the parti-
culars of which have, however, not come to our
knowledge. That His SWEDISH MAJESTY deserves
this honourable distinetion from the Usurper,
evt•ry transattion since his ascension to the throne of
his forefathers evinces ; he has always shewn the
same contempt for French Rebels in power, and the
time abhorrence for their crimes. We have more
than once taken occasion to mention the noble re-
smtment of Gt ST AV VS ADO Lriius, when the Cor-
sican Assassin had so cowardly and trea:herously
murdered the Duke of ENGHIEN. We have now
the pleasure to announce another trait of this loyal
Prince. His worthy representative in this conntt y,
Baron DE SILYERHIELM, received lately orders to
present on the part of his Sovereign, to Abbe Da
Bon vEns, Almoner to hislloyal Highness,Motist ewe,
brother to the King of Fa A Ns:. e, a gold medallion of
great value,for the eloquent funeral sermon which he
had pronounced in the King-street Chapel, when the
service for the repose of the soul of the Duke of
EVOH lEN was performed there. This medallion
was struck at Stockholm, in Sweden, in 1792, in
commemoration of that Royal Hero and Martyr,
GEST AVUS 111. butchered by Swedish Regicides in
the pay of French Jacobins. On one side it re-
presents Gusr vus 111. ascending to Heaven from
a funeral pile, and on the other is his apotheosis.
He was murdered on the 19th of March, 171)2, and
the Duke of Ettmitts on the 20th of March, 1804.
AS Hit SWEDISH MAJESTY generously observes,
the similitude of circumstances which accompanied
the murders of these two Princes, both perishing
by the hands of midnight assassins, makes this an
appropriate present on this melancholy occasion.

What we mentioned in our Paper of last Monday,
concerning the attempt of BoN AAAAAA to poison his
Sovereign, the Krou of Fs si.ct and NAv•a r, is
fully confirmed by the letter, v.•e received with
yesterday's mail, and by those our Government has
obtained. Ti. papers concerning this atrocious
affair are too voluminous to appear in a News.
paper, as they would make a large pamphlet. The
original proe.r verbal, if inserted enti,e, would fill
sixteen columns, and the interrogatorie,. And the cor-
respondence would occupy twice as much space.
The most material we have, are laid before the pub-
lic. We can however add, that it was in consequence
•f the name of BON APARTeS commercial agent,
Boris, that the Prussian President, Baron I lov se,
declined to have farther to do with it. 7:i. French
emissaries involved in the conspiracy, effeeted their
escape. The President Hover, Governor of War-
saw, and the Prussian City Council, have transmitted
a protocol of the whcle plot to the Court of Berlin.
This President has, during the three years His
Most Christian Majesty has resided at Warsaw, con-
dueled himself with that respea and delicacy, which
the undeserved misfortunes of a good Prince had a
right to expel. Baron HUYAI is a Nobleman of
elevated charader, of a feeling mind, and humane
disposition; nothing can therefore better prove the
extent of Bias AAAAA E'S reign of terror, than that
such an enlightened magistrate should be deterred
from the performance of his duty, by the very name
of an inferior agent of the barbarous Corsican. It is
remarkable that the brother to the President Baron

novas was the President of the Criminal Tribunal
at Blankenburgh, where, during the residence of
Louis XVIII. another attempt was made upon tin
MAJESTY'S life by the hired assassins of BASRAS,
then the patron and prote&or of BOMA, ART'.
Two of our contemporaries, however, affeft to
doubt this intelligence. They were the first to
gulp down the tale of MERLE of La TOUCHE, but
the poisoned carrot of Warsaw sticks in their
throats. One of them, indeed, does sot hesitate to
consider it a stratagem of Mr. Pirr to divert the
public attention from his condua. It cannot believe
that BONAPARCL'S emissaries would employ " the
keeper of a billiard table to do the job." Some
King, or at least a German Eleftor, we suppose,
ought to have been employed in this honourable af-
fair. It states with great skill and nicety, how a
plot ought to be conducted, and seems angry at
the clumsy and aukward management of the busi-
ness at Warsaw. But this coaduCt of the Print in
question does not surprise us. It is not upon the
head of Fto AAAAA Tr, but of Mr. PITT, that it is used
to pour the phial• of wrath. It is besides, so com-
pletely occupied with the BrentiTord Eleetion, it
probably has not time or opportunity to give a ma-
ture and deliberate consideration to any other sub•
jeft. As to the other Print, which protesscs tl be
in the pay of the Tteasury, and yet advocates the
cause of Bon A A arc upon this occasion, it is pretty
plain that it is not afraid of being read by its em-
ployers. We are surprised, hov.-ever, that it should
feel so much mortification at this proof of the su-
perior intelligence of THE BRIT so Pal ss.
ought to have reconciled it lang, since to its
humble station in the ranks of merit.

We have received a private letter from H im-
birrgh, of the 10th instant, which stares, that tho
French Ministers at Berlin, and in the difretent
Electoral Courts of Germany, have presented notes
" declaring the rumour unfounded of BONAPARTE
having proposed to Austria to make the Imperial
dignity over the German empire, hereditary in that
house." It is, however, well known, that the same
French courier, who brought to Vienna the news of
BONAPARTE'S proclamation as an Emperor of the
French, carried with him this proposal in hopes
by it to obtain from the Emperor of GAR awl. his
acknowledgment of the Usurper's new dignity. The
King of Paussr A was, at the same time, desired to
proclaim himself an Emperor of Prussia.

In a letter of the 7th instant front our Correspond-
ent at we are informed that the news at
BONAP•KTE'S attempt to poison Lot 1. XVIII. has
caused such indignation in that city, that his Mi-
nister, LA Foam, has been insulted, Loth in the
streets, and in the theatre, by the puhlic ; and
whilst at Court, and ill the Casino, every Member
of the Diplomatic Corps, with the exception of the
Italian and Batavian Ministers, shunned him, and
avoided to speak to him. Phis indignati•in was
augmented after the arrival of another c.urier
with the information of Bus RT es Commercial
Agent, Boyee's, new endeavours, either to bribe
over with money, or to intimidate by threats the
Frenchman, Coutoe, who discovered this base and
atrocious plot. It is said, that the conduA of Pre-
sident Hu'vrit has been approved of, though LA
Fottesr insists upon his dismissal, for having gone
too far. It is thought at Berlin that no farther
notice will be taken of this scandalous affair, and
no criminal prosecution ordered, at least until the
return of a courier sent to the Prussian Minister,
Luccutsimi, at Paris. Thepensioners of I PAR£ tp
in Prussia, and the members of his Secret Police.
spread shout that the whole plot has been invented
by English emissaries to palliate the correspondence
of Mr. DRAKE; but their employer's crime is too
manifest, and they are no more able to maLe any
dupes of their artifices.
