Liberty of the teas is restered, and the conquered Cc'.
lonies are given up. The Negotiations bet Ween
France and Austria still continue, and it does not
appear that the Cabinet of Vienna have yet com-
plied with the demands of BONArALITE respeEting the
removal of the Austrian Troops. It is highly probable
that the passage of Russian Troops through a small
part of the Austrian Territories will furnish BONA'.
rARTE with a new cause of complaint—he has, how-
ever; himself furnished the Cabinet of Vienna with
an answer—" Never did any passage,. executed with
tranquillity, excite any thing more than explana-
tions between friendly Powers."
Some of the private Letters which have been re-
ceived from the Continent, state, that the French,
ending themselves greatly disappointed with respe&
to the amount of British property at Hamburgh,
have offered to withdraw their Troops upon the pay-
ment of a sum of 16,000,000 of marks banco. The
Senate declared their inability to pay so large a sum,
but offered 6,000,000, which has been refused by
Marshal MORTIER, who has, however, hinted that
be will be satisfied with a sum of 10,000,000.

THE accounts which are said to have been re-
ceived of the total failure of MIRANDA, and of his
having finally resolved to abandon his attempts upon
the Spanish Possessions, are in a great degree un-
founded. It is certainly true that MIRANDA, finding
by experience that the force with which he landed
was insufficient to enable him to advance into the
country, where he would undoubtedly have been
joined by immense numbers of the inhabitants,
judged it expedient not to persevere until he
was able to colle& a more considerable force :
He accordingly withdrew to Trinidad, where he left
his Vessel, the Leander, and then went to Barba-
doe:;, where he had several interviews with Admiral
COCHRAW E,' on board the Northumberland. He pro-
posed to return to Trinidad on the 4th or sth of
November, and it was generally supposed that he
meant to renew his attempt with.tbe assistance of
a British Force.

Yesterday the New Parliament assembled, and
Mr. ABBOT was, as we predicted, eleaed Speaker
of the House of Commons without a dissentient
voice. It would not become us to offer any obser-
vations upon the re-election of that Gentleman to
fill the important and dignified Office of Speaker of
the House of Commons; but- we cannot avoid re-
ferring our Readers to the Speeches of Mr. BA-
THURST, Mr. WILBERFORCE, and Mr. GRENVILLE,
as we are convinced that they contained the sen-
timents of every person who has been a witness
to the manner in which Mr. ABBOT has hitherto
discharged the duties of that arduous office. This
morning, at twelve o'clock, the new Speaker, fc-
companied by Mr. BATHURST, Mr. WILBERFORCE,
Lord Ho wIcK, and several Members of the House
of Commons, attended at the Bar of the House of
Lords, where the LORD CHANCELLOR signified His
MAJESTY'S approbation of the choice of the House
House of Coliamons. The other Commissioners
were Earl SPENCER, the Earl of AYLESFOBD, and
Lord WALSINGUANI. The Speaker then made the
usual Claim of the Freedom of Speech, and the other
Privileges of the Commons. He then returned to
the House of Commons, where a great number of
Member; were sworn in.

As the times are very critical, and as our Enemy
is likely to employ every possible means that may
tend to injure this Country, we notice with great
pleasure a new regulation in the Alien Department,
which has been brought forward by Earl SPENCER.
By this measure, all strangers, before they, embark
for Great Britain, must obtain a Passport from the
British Resident in the Country from which they are
about to depart, and this document, on their arrival,
'must be counter-signed by the Minister from that
Country residing here. In cases of negle&, of which
due notice is immediately to be given to the Secretary
of State for the Foreign Department, those who have
not such a testimonial to produce will be considered as
objets of suspicion, and 'will, of course, not be per-
mitted to continue in this Country. A measure of this
kind was absolutely necessary in the present posture
of affairs, particularly as 'we have already a prodigi-
ous number of Foreigners among us, many of
whom, doubtless, ought to be observed with the
most Vigilant caution.

Last night, about seven o'clock, His Royal High-
atess the PRINCE of WALES arrived at Carlton House,
in his travelling barouche and four, from the Pavi-
lion at Brighton.
Yesterday the Danish Ambassador transacted bu-
iiness with Lord HowicK.
Earl SPENCER laid before FIIS MAJESTY on Wed-
nesday, at the Levee, a list of 100 convi&s under
sentence of transportation. His MAJESTY was
pleased to order them all to be transported to Botany
Bay, for which place they will sail in a fortnight.
The Deputy Messenger of the Great Sea! attends
every day in the Prince's Chamber, to deliver Writs
of Summons to the Peers of Parliament.

There was nn Court of Aldermen held to-day
but the LORD MAyoR, after inspeaing the returns
of the Alealweigbers., ordered the price-of Bread to
be lowere4 id, per Peck.
