LONDON,
THURSDAY, Auovsr 21.
The Fuods yesterday pilfered a depression. The
Omoium, which opened at 6, left off at 5 ; and
the Consols fall from 621 to 011. There was no
political news to produce the Wee. We believe
it was the result of dte o►dinary operations of the
Market, yesterday being settling day at the Stock
Exchange.

A Gottenburgh mail arrived yesterday, with let- I
ters and papers to the 12th instant. A paper of the
11th, contains the following paragtephs : •
id Yesterday arrived an English armed brig, hay.
ing on board a Russian Messenger, with dispatches
for St. Petersburgh, wir,/t• which he set off imme-
diately." _
,4 fly the last accounts from St. Petersburgh, we
learn, that the Russian Minister is about to leave
Constantinople."
We have received ?he Leyden Canntle of the 15th.
containing the Paris news to the 1 1 th instant.—
Among the latter, are some interesting extrads from
the Paris papers, upon the subjedl of the negotiation
with this country. It was reported that Ta.u.sv-
Ramo declined seeing the Earl of LALIDIP DALE for
some days after his Lordship's arrival at Paris ; and
some foreign papers had also stated that hi; Lord-
ship had been introduced to Bo AAAAA It. The ex-
ert:Os from the Pais Journals in The Leyden Ga-
sette cuntradit both these reports. They state, that
the negotiations commenced by Lord Ye it mount,
are continued, with great alivity, by Lord Latt DLit-
DALE. His Lordship, it is said, had a long con.
lerence with M. Ta ssav !AND on the G.h, the day
after his art ival in that city ; the result of which was
sent off to Londo:1; I•lithe was not presented on 11w6th
I tO Bon APART t, it being zontrou to og:uric, that this

of
ceremony should take place until after the signii.g
a Treaty of Peace. 'Great attention and respea are
said to be paid tp the English Negcciator. Every
thingbthat could give offence is strialy prohibited by
the Government; and the Police have been &retied
to remove all caricatures, that tend to ridicule or
relief, upon this country, from the print-shops
and places of public exhibition. Perhaps. however,
it would be allowing more merit to tile French Go-
vernment than it deserves, to admit that the sole cob-
jed of this proscription of caricatures, was to arid
giving offence to the English Embassy.—Caricatures
are said.tp stl4 the taste and humour of the English
people, in,a, peculiar degree, and they are allowed
to excel the French in that kind of proditaion.
800 41. ANTI may, therefore, eve& a reciprocal
civility—a similar order of prohibition in this coun-
try ; in which event all the advantage would be
upon his side. It would be a great pcint gained ;
it would be a blow against the Liberty of the Press,
so much dreaded by every despot, and perseCgred,
with e;tvaordinaty vigilance, by 800 AP AST!. On
the contrary, the xecutive Power of this realm has
nothing to fear, but every thing to hope, from the
k,iberty of the Press. It is not It4tu, probable that
the ;al.l of IAUDERDA LI would exationA the paint-
ing. upon the dead walls and pott,s of Pars, with
the industry otatt agent of the Society for the Sop-
premien of Vice ; and if his eye should glance von
a caricaxure of .I,,Lti 8.0.14 we do not think it would
I"fike his temper, or retard the prowess, of thc,
negociatspn.

We find, in these paper,;, new proofs of the
disposition of Bon AeA rc, whi„;11 eye. lately no-
ticed, to insult the Emperor of GIRIIA NY, and
interfere in, his Councils, An article, dated Vienna,
evidently a fabrication, contai's a Philippic against
the Austrian Cabinet, and partieult‘rly count
STADION, whom it represents as a tra,iito:. The
appointment of M. D'Utz, Ambassador from the
Court of Vienna to Madrid, has furnished an oppor-
to oty for this diatribe. The insttuaions given to
him by the Austrian Minister, are said to have been
full of perfidy, and the Court of Vienna is advised
to soft with frankness and candour. Nothing can
be more insolent %Ad offensive. Yet this has
been, done at the very moment of the arrival of the
Austrian Atmbo,sador, who might have read the
very article vire have wadies!, on the very day of
his presentiag his Credential.; —Tbe Monsieur gives
to his Weems,. Nairn. v nothing more than the
title of Emperor of AUSTIII A.

74 Naples G,,z, tic gives some new particulars
of the siege of Gaeta. A breach was made in
the citadel large enough for six men to enter
a-breast ; atkl tip besieging army was preparing
to storm the place, when it agreed to capitulate.—
The garrison h.d requested time to consult the
Prince of Hasse Putursruat, but were refused.
This was four days after he had been wounded,
and removed on board an English ship. We may,
therefore, indulge a hope, that the wound of this
gallant Prince was not mortal.

The dispatches brought by Mr. Pectic*, are
said to relate only to points of inferior moment.—
The decisive dispatches, it is supposed, will be
brought by Mr. BASILIC°, who is hourly expe&ed.
