titular attention of the gangs at preient, appears
direifted only towards procuring seamen, as but
few landsmen have been taken. •Those of the latter
description, who have been picked up, are chiefly
-idle and vagabond persons, destitute of employ-
ment. Many prime sailors have been procured by
the activity of the officers in the impress service.
We must not her.c suppose, that the seamen are
in heart unwilling to enter.—Most of them keep out
of the way, merely in expe&atiun of a bounty. -
The inquietude of the Government is at present
excited, with regard to the persons absent from
France, without any known cause.—lt has en-
joined their families to ascertain in what place they
reside; to avow the cause of their absence, their
occupation, their means of existence, and to render
an account to the Government.—We are fearful, if
not of a new list of emigrants, at least of some
measures which will recal the regime of the sus-
pected.—Courier de Losadres.

I ROM THE FRF.NCII PAPERS.
PARIS, MARCH 7.
By letters from Munich it appears, that the whole
the Austrian troops are immediately to be with-
,wn from Passau. Orders had arrived from
ina to give up the place to the Batavian General
Deroi, who, with a considerable body of troops, was
neighboHrhood to take possession of it as soon
was quitted by the Austrians.
'wenty barges proceeded, on the 6th Ventose
.cf. 3), from St. Maloes to Cherbourg, where
are to be employed in carrying stones and
materials necessary for the completion of the
and harLour of that town. •

General of the French establishments in India,

The squadron for India will now speedily
The frigate Urania, with the corvettes La Dili-
and Le Carieux, sailed from Brest the 24th
ebruary. Their destination is supposed to be for
,merica.
The Government has issued an arrete for regis-
tering anew all ship-carpenters, caulkers, sail-mak.
ers, rope-makers, &c. resident at the different
ports, and not already entered on the register for
sailors. When a requisition is made foe their ser-
vices, it is to be regulated by the laws of the 25th of
October, 1796. Blacksmiths, bakers, and house-
carpenters, are also to obey the requisition of the
Administrators of the Marine, should their services
be thought nece.istrr. Such of these artizans as re-
fuse to proceed to their destination, shall be appre-
hended, and forwarded from brigade to brigade, till
they teach the respective ports.
According to accounts from the Hague, it is
finally settled, that the head-quarters of the French
troops to remain in the Batavian Republic shall, for
the present year, be fixed at Breda.

HAGUE, FER. 23.

It is remarked as somewhat singular, that the
ships which were expeacti these two months past
from the Cape of Good Hope, are so tardy in ar-
riving ; it is supposed that contrary• winds may have
forced them to take she'.ter in some of the ports of
the Ocean. Notw•ithstt:u:ding all the idle reports
which the English Journals are pleased to spread
abroad respets:ting the Cape, our funds continue sta-
tionary. fhe Batavian rcscriptions, payable after
the peace, have risen, more than 3 per cent.

FEBRUARY 24 .

Government has received letters from Admiral
De Winter, of the 30th of January. The ships
composing his squadron were in very good state at
Toulon, and were preparing to set sail from thence
with the first favourable wind, in order to return to
our own ports.
RATISSON, et/I. ‘25.

We have just received the important intelligence
that a Convention has been signed at Paris, regulat-
ing the indemnity for the Elector of Bavaria, in
compensation fc.r the loss of the bishoprick of
Eichtett.
AVOSBFRG, FEL 21..
The Gazette of Venice has published the letter
which Citizen kornien, the French agent at Cot-
fou, has written to the Vicar-General of the Catholic
persuasion in that island, informing him of the sen-
timents entertained by the First Consul in favour of
that religion. The letter runs as folloves
" It is with much pleasure that I hasten to inform
you, that I have received orders from my Govern-
ment to place the Catholic religion in the Seven
Islands under the special proteaion of the French
Government, of which I have also informed the.
President of the Senate. This proof of a friendly
disposition on the part of the French Government
hi favour of the Catholic church, cannot fail to
operate with the faithful of your communion as a
powerful motion to oiler up their daily prayers to
Heaven for the prosperity of the French Republic,
and for the preservation of the life of its Consuls,
in the same manner as that has been observed in
France. I have the honor to be, Stc. Rom mu."

BERNE, FM 27.

Great preparations are making in the different
towns for the splendid recepti n of M. D'Afrry, as
Land:unman of Switzerland. He is expeCted this
