Smile Article respecting the Sotiety for the'Suppreision of
Vice :

, nothing tends more to immix:l4y than machine game, end
that mane are brought to an untimely end by it, have, iu
weer tei discourage it as much as possi-le, directed those em-
ployed by them to keep a 'harp look- nit after the stage coaches,
caravans, wAggoirs, as well am balers' carts, who are in the
practice of bringing to eosin all knurl, of game—We reify the
mete Own a Morning Payer, whew, no doubt, it was hutted
by aothority•--We really cannot help rc,oetitig, teat this So•
ciery for the Stippre‘sion of Vice is one of the moo impudent
and troublesome corporations of folly and affectation ve have
ever heard of, and we are ast swished h or they are pv, mated
to hit... and regiment spies to molest the monis:mite ;--eehey are
themselves a mossier* which the magistrates should suppress."
I cannot help, !in., being surprised at yetir credulee in
• beitersog so improbable a charge on em better grounds than its
appearance in a Newspaper; yet, a, you have thought laruPer•
not only en expre:. pour confidmit opinion that the article con-
taiiug it war Inserted' by authority,' but also to make it the
occasion of so severe an attack wt the Society, it is impos,
sitile to doubt that yon will readily insert the eentrediltimi of
it which I now send you. Such a eorapentotaors, at least,
weeM be due to the messiest hidoodual end meet, n nab
be refused to a Society consisting of upward. of 1200 meinbe.,
antra:rig whom are to he found proems of the first rank and con-
sequence in the country.
If the Soeiety for the Suppression of Vice were to inter•
ere in any m loner with cetnices agibist the game laws, ;he-
Would stop far out of their pruelnce, and wooM org: the
rules of their institution. In conermation of this *stem, nt,
as well as to prevent further mistakes in your paper is-ape:tine
the obieets of this Societe, it mac be proper to inform you thtit
the offedce:, to which they arc bound to confiust their atten-
tion, at,
' Tee pro(aoatiou of the Lord's Day;
Tne trauds and abuses practised in selling by false weight;
and measures;

' Illegal I,lstltillOit in Intteries ' •
' The keepeig of riotous and disorderly houses, brothels,

The seductive practice of procurers;

• And such other gros offences as court within the acepe of
His Majesty's most admirable Proclamati:m against Vice. Pro-
faneness, and I isinsorality•
• To the above objects the Society have strictly confined
their attention; and the eircionstaiice of their being charged
with what they have net don*, affords aerate presumption that
it is found impossible to censure with effect any thing that the,
have done It is not the impropriety, but the nature of their
prnceediugs, wh:ch has inarjeeted them to censure. Thous who
attack vice must expect to provoke the hostility of the vicious.
• To restrain the offences abee• enumerated the leg shoe,
ha., fro hme to time, mime wise mid salutary laws
the open violation of those law, wet become so common, and
the disregard to them so prevalent, that some extraordinary
interposition seemed necessary to preveut their becoming a
dod letter. Individuals could wit be expected to incur the
expence, trouble, and odium, otappealing tomagistratee, or to
enin: of justice, for the execution of laws, the breach of
which, how..ver injurious to the state, did not particularlytffect
any one in more than anothi-r ; and magistrates and
~dtts of justice could not be expeeted to act in such cues,
less infermat ions were laid before then. An association, there.
fere, aifordiet the only chance of giving effect to laws, the ef-
ficacy of whieh atom could restrain vice, immorality, and pro-
phaneness ; under this impression, and in imitation of the lau•
dable example of the Proclamation Society, as wall es rif
miler societies in the country is. the )7th mature, the So-
ciety for the Suppression of Vice was established ; and if no
other helmet had roisetiel from its establishment than the de-

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FROM THE FRENCH PAPERS.

PARIS, sr.rr. 15.
The Swedish Papers do not call the Emperor of
the French by any other title than Regent or Go-
iferoOr.

We learn by a letter from the Mauritius, of the
19th of May last, that the French frigates La Bet'e
Peale and Alaknit, had just brought in an English
East lndiaman from Bengal to London, laden with
500,000 pounds of indigo, 600,000 of sugar,
60,000 of saltpetre, 800 bales of muslins, piece
pods, &c.

For some days, the public have been visiting the
statues destined to decorate the grand staircase and
hall of the palace of the Senate. They are twenty.:
eight in number: among them are, Solon, Atisti-
des, Cicero, Demosthenes, Mirabean, ( ..'orhlorcet,
Vergniaux, Beauharnois, Desaix,
mier, Joubert, Thouret, Chapelier,
farelli.

It is said that the Emperor of Germany will
assume, as. Emperor of Ausuia, the title of Fran-
cis the Fii st. He will then be Francis the First,
and Francis the Second.

Letters from Hamburgh, of the 3d, speak of the
occupation of all the exist on the N Irth Sea, in
case the Russians commence hostilities against
France. It is added, that if that event take pface,
the Hans Towns will receive for a time Irench

garrisons.
Accounts from Vienna state, that the Gororn-

ment continue to send artillery to the coast, upon
the borders of the Adriatic.
• English Papers to the 2.1 of September have
bee received. They arc, in general, 611 ed with
fables, calumnies, invetives, •ague reports, and
contra ii Rion. Sometimes the Government
lishes, Ivy means of its official trumpeters, that the
invasion is on the point of taking place, and that
209,000 men are ready to embark ; and, at others,
that it cannot be undertaken with a sufficient num-

ber of troops to afford cause for apprehension.
The other extremity of Europe appears to be not
more disposed to remain quiet than England. For
a century, Rl:ilia has been meditating and execnt-
• ing her plan of dismembering the Porte. After
!wring insensibly destroyed the outworks of that
. power, she is approaching the centre. She at firs:
"'requested permission for a few small vessels to navi-
gate the Caspian. Sea, and the Bosphorus. She
now sends thither ships of the line and tints. If
Europe does not interfere, the Ru.,s;ans will soon
realise the fable of the bitch :
Pour bn.-r Crux co qu'un Icur prete,
21 fael-a Won en vienne aux ..oues.

There is no donbt hot that this dispositlon is
owing to the ambition of England, and her extrava-
gant pretensions. It is she that has favoured the
secret designs of Russia. The ancient allies of the
Ottoman Empire would have saved it from that
danger. Thus, EnglanJ, which is incesal.tly t
ilk-
ing of the b ilex* of Europe, employs every possible
means to destroy it. Rut while she foolishly under
mines the existence of the most flurishing states, it
is extremely curious, and a kind of consolation, to
sec how blind she is to her own situation, and how
she entangles herself in the net which she so dili-
gently extends for the ruin of others.

A letter from the frontiers of Italy, of the 2J of
September. says, " A report is prop igated that the
English have again bombarded Algiers."
According to the last letters horn Malaga. an-
other contagion is apprehended ; a new quarantine
has therefore been ordered in the dice-ent ports fur
ebips coming from the kingdom of Grenada.
Our public funds are again rather inclined to
lower ; but those who judge of the political situation
of such a neA country as France, from the variations
inlier funds, fall into great errors. It is well known
that they are merely the tricks of gamblers, jobbets,
and speculators, who mutually try to take in eaLo
Silber, and to profit afterwards together ►y the

lie credulity. h is, however, time :o pus an end to

all these scandalous and deceitful mansrlrres, ruin_
ing so many, and enrichinj so few. It would be
well if the pohcc agents would keep the same good
look out upon our gamblers in the funds, .is on these
in time tripot.t ; they would. peroap, soon di,o.ser
es many dangerous and infamous char i•lers in one
place as in the other, and be convot.ed,,that our

greatest thieves are not those chaincd in our gal.

For ne-arly eight weeks the most beautiful timber

(Lou de phis grande beairti is daily floating
upon the Seine through Paris, said to Lave been
purchased by some of our officers of doe navy, in
Russia, last year. It ascends the Seine in trainh of
seventy, eighty, and ninety trees cacz. This tim-
ber is destined for trir arsenals and dock-yards at
Toulon, where it u-ill arrive, partly Z,y water, and
partly by land, but mostly by the former way,
through the united navizativns of the Sine, the

Saone, and the Rhone. It floats from Paris to
.Innesse, thence to Chalons and Lyons, and after-
wards by Avignon, near to the Durance,• from
which river it will be carried by land toToulon.
It comes from Antwerp, Ostend, Dunkirk, Havre,
and Rotten ; and if our mai ine architcas are to be
believed, what has already, for two months past,
floated through Park, is sufficient to build thirty
ships of the line.—(Jo.irfiet de )

The following number of troops are now said to
be encamped upon the Continent : In France,
300,000 men ; in Italy, Bs,noo men ; in Hoilmd,
36,000 men ; in Hanover, w. 4,000 ran ; in Switzer-
land, 12,000 men; in Austria and Bohemia, 180,000
men ; in Prussia and Silesia, 210,000 men ; in Ba-
varia, 40,000 men ; in Denmark and Holstein,
16,000 men ; in Sweden, Is,ooo men ; in Ilus:ia,
190,000 men ; In Servia, :30,000 men ; in Turkey,
60,004 me.) ; and, what is moss surptising, thanks
to the moderation and firmness of Napoleon the
First! the Continent continues in petlia peace.—
(Gazette de France.)
'f he Emperor has graciously been pleased to
order, that all presidents of the courts of criminal
justice, above seventy years of age, are, for the re-
mainder part of their lives, to return to their func-
tioni in their former courts of appeal, with the con-
tinuance of the same salaries as criminal judges.

e have heard from travellers coming from dif-
ferent communes round Nantes, that the alarm
bells have never ceased to sound for these eight
days past, as a warning to the inhabitants to save
their harvest, vines, cattle, Sic. from a threaten-
ing destruaion, by the sudden and unexpeded over-
flow of the River Loire, which, for the last week,
has tegularly every day risen several feet above its
usual banks. The damage done is very considera-
ble, particularly to the vineyards. S. veral bri !gee
have been carried away by the rapidity and strength
of its current ; and, we apprehend, that many lives
have been lost, as the bodies cl men, women, and
children, have been seen floating upon its wa-
ters, together with the carcases of cattle, house-
hold furniture, &c. Since the summer which pre-
ceded the cold winter of 1709, this river has not,
at the present season of the year, in such a manner
overflowed its bar ks.—(Essille Nantaiu.)

In its last and .t 7th sitting, the members of the
Helvetic Diet ratified several arrangements nego-
tiated between the Emperor of the French and a
secret committee, composed of seleft deputies of the
Diet. The demand of the French Minister to have
delivered op criminals of every descl ;p1 inn reepi'red
in for ft by Ftai..ce, was consetv,....i to. P•it, t Ahew
its Didtpendritee, the Diet refused its ad' to the
proposal of giving up French deserte they are
no: at the SAM" accused of; o:- woud to be co..
.yirators, a state criminals.

According to letters from Porte Ferrajo, it looks
as if an attack either from 5.x English or Rtas-ian
forces Wii expeard on that place. The new forti-
fications are neatly finished, and the greatest anivity
prevails every where in fortifyi -g different vt:iner-
able points of Fie d'2' ha. place has rewired
a reinforcement of 4000 men, and pens isions suf-
ficient to sustain an attack or a bloclstele of fifteen
months. The artillery on the ram • ..ts have been
augmented with SO pieces heavy moral, and twelve
new batteries have been erened, conr.Oning together
fifty 36-pounders. As Government has reason to
suspeia the loyalty of the inhabitants, on account of
their known attachment to the English, several of
the principal among them have been tr.insported to
France, where they will remain confined until a
general peace, and serve as hostages for the fidelity
of their countrymen. Besides these dolgossi:e mea-
sures, numerous detachments of French gunners at e
distributed along the banks of the Ponant, to d fend
them against any attempts or landing of English pri•
vateers swarming all along the coast of Italy.
French Funds 51 1-10ths.

I t isnot yet known whether the Emperor will ascend
the Rhine to Hunningrn, and whether he will go to
Landau and Strasburg; but it is Said that, at all events,
his Majesty will visit the town of Frankenthal and
its vicinity, as it is intended to make that place a
very important fortress on the Banks of the Rhine.
The works are to be begun next spring, and the
plan of the fortifications will be definitively settleil
when the F,mperor has examined the situation.

BANKS OT MAINE, SEPT. S.

During the absence of the Emperor, the Ministry
of Vienna held a grand conference, at which M.
de Cobentzel presided. It has been decided unani-
mou tly, as soon as the ratification of the Archduice-
Charles has been obtained, to send reinforcements,
in troops and artillery, into Sclaconia, Croatia, ac.
We are atsureJ, that the command of this army will
be given to Gc..eral Latc•sr, the present Autunander
in Moravia.

We are assured, that a great toot:. s subsists be-
tween the Cabinet cf Vienna and C. English Minis-
tor. It is even remarked, that t` - ransaftions of
the Austrian Ministr; are net so f ent wit!: Ru<
sia, as they Wert solllt mauls al;., ; it is even said,

LON DON,
WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBeIt 26.

We stated yesterday, upon the authority of our
Private Correspondence, that Bo s APART L's ends-
saries in Sweden are busily employed in distributing
translations, in the Swedish language, of his late
official libel, in the Ahmittur, against the King of
Sweotri. Three Mails from Gottenburgh arrived
yesterday, and have brought intellir;ence that fully
confirms our statement. We have had often occa-
si in to observe, that the French Revolutionists have
never attacked with arms a country that they
had not rep +red by their arts to receis e them. 13iit,
neither in l Lifland, nor in Swi,zerland, have more
pains been taken to cultivate the ground for the
revolutionary seed than the Corsican is now taking
in Sweden. He will, however, find it a stiff ai.,l
lE.-grateful soil, not likely to reward his lahottrs.
The King c.f SWLDEN returned on the Sth to his
capital, perfe.hy apprised of all the treacherous
art. arid sievices of the Corsican, and determined to
confouild them. A council was immediately sum-
.rrmed, at which it was r-solved to prohibit the cir-
-:illation in Sweden of all the papers, and to
forbid all communicaticn with the French Ciee
dr, ; who, in consequence, left Stockholm
upon the 10th. War, therefore, now appears inevit-
able between France and Sweden ; and the braggart
Corsican hopes that it will hide his disgrace, and
serve as a pre:ext for declining the invasion of Eng-
land. Bat Sweden is not the only scene of his se-
cret intrigues-and machinations. Every where upon
" continent his ,ent, are in permanent activity,
inventing.and cir• sting the means of distrust and
jealousy. An :ic most pv,valent reports that
they have serval ; and tl.ere are npurcso extravagant

as not to obtain some credit; they say, that the
treaty now negotiating between Great Britain et:,
Russia is not merely an offensive and defemi..
alliance, but also a treaty of par:Pion of the Turl...
Empire ; by which lE.,:2;ypt i, to be given up to Gicl•
Britain as an interme.lbue'colony betweeiits es,•
blishments in India ;IV its dominions in Fa top,,
According W other reports, Russia and England
have offered the Illeaorate of llanover to Prus.i..
for the assent of that power as a guarantee c,r
this partition trea:y, to which Austria has he,:
also invited to accede. In all these report, Fran;:,:.
is represented as totally unconneeted with se zb
manusuvres, if we except, indeed. one, which sa:
that it has been proposed to cukivate the go,o
will of the Corsican, by peoviding for the Boy. •
lONS in India, at a distance too remote to cndang
his throne.

We also receive.] yesterday the Paris Papers
the 15th, from which we have eitra,aed every ar:.,
of any interest. That infamous print, 7'4'
is now ordered to vilify the Emperor of Bessie, 1.
the same strain of scurrility with which it is in t!,
habit of reviling the King of ENGLAND ; and
other Paris Papers condescend to copy all its sland....

A deputation from the Spanish and Portugn •
merchants in the city waited yesterday upon r.
Minister. \Ve understand their object was to st;•
gest their apprehensions, on account of the noma.-
rival in course of the Lisbon packet. After the co. •
fercnce. orders were sent to Falmouth to prey?, •

A Court of Proprietors of the Bank of England
Wit held yesterday, at which the late resolution f
