LONDON,
MONDAY, JULY 23.

Pri►ate letters from Paris, of the 10th. state a
new proof of the hostile spirit of BONAPARTC in his
conduit towards Ittusia and Sweden. He has adopt-
ed a system of rigour and persecution against all
the subjeas of these two powers, whether travellers
or merchants, in France, Italy, Switzerland, and
Holland. His military Fe, crams commanders,
and police agents, are ordered to insult, oppress, and
arrest them upon the slightest pretence. The least
informality in their passes, any complaint that inge-
nuity and suspicion can devise, is considered a suf-

Ecier.t ground to detain their persnns. Those who
ate going to France are stopped at the frontiers.
nndcr tae pretence that they ought to have new
passes from Paris ; and these who are leaving?
France • are detained under the pretence that their
poses arc not correa. During these last five weeks,
no Russian or Swedish ship has been permitted to
clear out and sail ; and, notwithstanding the de-
mands and representations of the Consuls of their
respeßive natioas. the only answer that has been
obtained is, u Such are the good will and pleasure of
the Emresroa." This measure is generally sup-
posed to be a prelude to an embargo. Many cir-
cumstances tend to confirm this suspicion. Among
these is the great aßivity of the pr.lice agents to
discover and ascertain the prop icy of Russian and
Swedish subjeds
_in France. and to prevent any
transfer or removal of it. Should a rupture with
these countries take place. an event considered in
France very probable. there is little doubt but that
Russian and• Swedish subjeas will experience similar
treatment to that which British subjeas in France
experienced last year.

Paris Papers to the 13th, and Dutch Papers to
the lath, were received on Saturday. The former
contain the decree for regulating the ceremony of
the Coronation of the Em P saws, which is fixed for
the 18th Brumaire ; 9th of November.

The Hamburgh Mail of the 14th arrived on
Saturday, and that of the 17th, the only one doe,
arrived Tester.; if. Their principal contents are two
notes presented to the Diet at Ratishon, on the 2d
instant, by the Austrian and Prussian Ministers, con-
cerning the invasion of Germany, and the murder of
the Duke of Emma en, which unlawful and atro-
cious transadtions are now left without resentment,
and without revenge, as the Courts of Vienna and
Be►lin incline to that impolitic and JeAruding obli-
vion proposed in the note of the Eflor of Barite.
0 course their declarations are similar to that of His
Eleftoral Highness, already before the public.
At Constantinople the account of BONA'
pa tea's new dignity hat caused several deliberations
in the Divan. The TOIILISH ENlPLlWltsseems
in-
cline.' to follow the example cf Russia, and at least
consider for some time before he salutes the Corsican
adventurer an equal.
In Russia, a rupture with France, and an alliance
with England, both according to public and private
accounts, are regarded as events near at hand. Two
Russian ships of 64 guns have arrived at Constan-
tinople, and five others were expected with Russian
troops, to augment the forces in the lonian Is'adds,
In Austria, the temporising system is continued.

under French colours from Rimini, now watched by
one of our frigates. It is supposed, that French in-
terest will, on this occasion, get the better of justice,
as the ship has not yet been given up.
The King of Swsose is gone to Vienna, intend-
ing to visit the three Austrian-encampments.

Letters from Rotterdam state, that the weather
on the Continent has been attended by all the seve-
rity of Winter ; a frost. accompanied by a heavy
fan of snow, took place in different pkrts of
during the first week in July.
The l)utils armaments for the invasion have been
officially reported completely ready for service.
It is stated to be the purpose of BONAPARTE to
'concentrate the whole of nit naval force at. Brest;
and, under the proteftion of this fleet, which is esti-
mated at 46 sail of the line, the Boulogne and
Dutch armaments are to make their debet. Gene-
ral Aeoter•u, who has the chief direltien of this
enterprise, is stated to have received his final orders
from the new Eueeaos, and to have left Paris for
the purpose of embarkation.

l'ona.tea is now very unhealthy, and a great mor-
tality has already 411011 place there ; Captains CA TH-
c• a r and Baamt, of the royal navy, are amongst the
vithms. The Captain of the Clori"de (we believe
Captain R. &Reims) died no her passage home.

Private advice from Petersburgh of the 27th ult.
state that a camp of near 60000 men is to assemble
in the vicinity of the Pert of Cronstadt, where the
Emtaacia Itinwell will review the troops, and the
Grand Duke Cosse• !trims will have the immediate
command under him. •

The Vienna Letters of the 4th instant, m•ntion

- AIME t•t propose overtures l.)1" a pc. int t:ioa. 6e-
tween Great Britain and Frarc.., which am „ to
have been communicated to Mr. As-rut:it ET,
the British Minister there, and by him transmitted
to his Court. They add. that Count STA Niti.:4llLaG.
the Imperial Ambassador in London, has been
charged to declare to the British Cabinet, in the
name of his Court, that the House of Austria is
firmly resolved, upon no consideration, to deviate
from the system of neutrality it has adeptesi, but
to maintain it, in all its energy, against every party
that might make an attempt to inftirrge it.
