The political horizon appears to darken
and the hopes of peace seem to vanish. The French
Papers contain various complaints against the Ca-
binet of Vienna, which appears difficult to concili-
ate. The North of Germany equally wears an hos-

of the Elbe, for the purpose of concentrating them-
selves in the centre of the country. It is said that
a camp will be formed between Hanover, Zell, and

LONDON,

SiekTfiRDAY, AUGUST 30.
We have received New York papers to the st
ult. but they contain no news. A letter, however,
of the 20th, from our Correspondent is that city,
will be found interesting. It enables us to eortra-
Ilia a report which prevailed yesterday, stating that
an account had been received at Liverpool, that the
ysUow fever had broken oat in New-York, and was
raging there with great violence. There was no
symptom of it in that city on the 20th.
The Moniker has published a Sketch of the
tory of the Jews, from Moses to the present time.—
In the execution of this work, the writer examines
particularly into the causes of their dispersion, and
the maxims and laws in their policy and legislation,
which have contributed to preserve them an isolated
body iq every country where they reside. It is
evidently intended for the purpose of prepar-
ing the way for the new system which Bon a-
t erre Means to establish for that class of people.
—The practice of usury, to which they are al-
most universally devoted, as the means of live-
Mood, forms an important subject of this in-
quiry ; and we may coUea from it, that Isol4B-
- A MCC means to consolidate the Jews with the mass
of the people, and assimilate them, in their pursuits
and professions, to the rest of his subject;. The re-
ports, therefore, of kis intention to re-eatablish the
kingdom of the Jews, to coiled these wandering
people, and reinstate them in their native land, we
are disposed to treat as visionary and delusive.
There is nothing in the article to which we allude,
to give a colour to this romantic speculation. The
article in the Mission- being of considerable length,
we give only a part of it this day. We shall give
the remainder at length, or, at all events, a satis-
factory sketch of it, as opportunity shall offer.
The Harnburgis Mail, due on Sunday last, arrived

at seven o'clock last evening, with letters and pa-
pers to the 20th instant. Prussia has assumed a
warlike attitude. Her armies are every where in
motion. All Generals, absent on leave, have been
ordered to. Berlin, to receive their several com-
mands. Magdeburgh has been declared in a state
of siege, and the military d.joits are placed upon
the war establishment. Three camps arc to be
formed upon the frontiers of Hanover ; camps
are also to be formed on the borders of Sax-
ony ; and the mass of the Prussian army is to be
coneentred in the heart of the kingdom. The ra-
pacity of France is the cause assigned for these mi-
litary demonstrations. BONAIPAITE, it is said, has
demanded the cession of East Friesland, Embden,
and some other little corners of the Prussian do-
minions, for the purpose of consolidating them with
the new Kingdom of Holland.—The King of Pius-
St A has mustered up &tardy courage, and resolved
upon resistance to this extravagant demand,
has put his armies in motion. It has been long
that the friendly relations between France
and Prussia, would finally come to this issue. In
the whole history of revolutionary France, she has
never been known, in a single instance, to limit het
desires. Concessions and compliances have added
only fuel to the flame. The acquisition of a part.
only increased her appetite for the whole. With
so many awful and terrible examples of this revo-
lutionary policy before its eyes, what is the csurse
which the prudent calcalating Cabinet of Prussia
has run?—She set out under the auspices of BONA.

Letters received from Torbay state, that IlisMa-
jetty's brig Cieerly, Lieutenant FULLEILTON, which
arrived there on Wednesday, fell in with His
Majesty's sloop ih'ever, at sea, on the preceding J'y,
the Commander of which informed Lieutenant
FULLEKTON, that on the same morning ( l'neiday
last) he boarded an American vessel, the Mit‘tzr of
which stated, that on his passage he had fallen in
with JEROME BONAPA SAL'S ship the Veteran, which
had parted from the rest of Gut LLAUtaILeS squad-
ron off the Capes of Virginia, and that the remaining
part of the squadron was making for some pot t in
America. We do not believe the report of the
American. Fr* all the accounts previously re-
ceived, it is more prpbable that the rest of the
squadron is on its return to Europe.

We were not able to learn, at a late hour last
