A Cabinet Council *as held yesterday at Mr.
Secretary's Fox's Office in Downing-street, wh;ch
was fully Attended. The subjea matter of its de-
liberations is supposed to have been the recent ad-
vices received from the Continent. We mentioned
yesterday the arrival of M. lie Woiuizuw, the
nephew of the RUSSIAN AURASSADOR, with dis-
patches from St. Petersburg for our Court. One
of the domestics of Mr. TAYLOR, late Minister to
toe Court of Hesse-Cassel, arrived also en Sunday

said, that he has brouFht intelligence that Mr.
TAYLOR had been compelled to leave Cassel, and
go to Berlin, and that he intended to return to Eag-
laid immediately. Dispatches were also received
feels Vienna. These advices were, no doubt, taken
into consideration by the Council yesterday.

An article which we copied yesterday from the
Foreign Papers, stated, that the King of PatasiA
had entered :at° t treaty with Fr ince, in s.hteh His
Pat clan tila ry has consented to cede Anspach
to the King of I!..‘v ; and stipulating that the
French army, nr le: \ia-s1:41 Baits anor rt. shall
provisionally occupy that territory, as so,Not as the
Prus.ian troops s io1!.1 take possession of Hanover.
Some Paris tapers, but not of a later date than
those, the subjea of viil4.ll we cornmuaicated yester-
day, contain the following article, in conSrmalion
of this intelligence :
PRUCL AMATIoN.
In erwaseuswos et a treaty connAuded bowmen France and

!lead-quarters. at Anspach, Marshal of the Impire,
24th February. J. BERNADOTTE.
Although it is not expressly stated is this Procla-
mation, that Anspach has been given in evchange
for Hanover, yet the people of Anspach consider the
transaction decidedly in that light ; and, upon the
first rumour of the exchange, they expressed their
apprehensions to the King of PRUSSIA, in an Ad-
dress, professing their attachment to His Majesty,
to which they received the following answer :-
0 The expreoions of fidelity and cordial attachment, in
your repreentatien of the 21st ult. in which you also manifest
your concern, in conseqweitre of the reports circulated of an
exchange of the blargraviate of An:path, have sensibly affected
me. I thank you cordially, and shall never forget you as

" Berlm, Feb 8, 1816"
If any doubt could be entertained upon the sub-
