LONDON;
FRIDAY, JUNE 13, 1806.

We are prevented by want of room from laying before our
Readers in detail the contents of the Hamburgh Mail which
arrived yesterday evening,. They are, however, very imPortant.
I t seems now to be ascertained beyond a doubt, that the. Em-

'pnor orßuspia has conserited to evacuateCataro.iilconseTle ct
of which orders have been sent from V ienna toTrieste

termand the intended shutting 'of- the Austrian Ports
British and Russian' Ships. The EMPE 12,31 t of Aussl-A :3
exerting his influence to reconcile the ditkrenees bet went.'
Prussia and Sweden, and frOm the marked reluaance which.
his Prussian Majesty has manifested to enter into hostilities.
there is reason to belie4e that lie will succeed.

A. very general opinion prevails on the Continent that a•
most important change is about to take place in the Germanic
Constitution
,it is indeed asseited, in a Letter from Ham-
burgh, dated the 6th instant, " Ti:at a Convention,has bees
aCtually signed at Paris, by which the Constitution of the
Gennanic Body is totally changed, at the expellee of the for
influence, of the House of Austria over the Empire,
which is transferred to Bori.te a-r and his Allies." It is
also said that PrUssia, Bavaria, and Baden, have consented
to the new system.

The following Letter. from Amsterdam confirms, the ac..
count we published'some time'ago respeaing the New Cuts.
stitution which is to be imposed upon Holland.

AMSTERDAM, !UNA 3.—lt is' understood that their High;
Mightinesses and his Majesty the Emperor of the French and
King of Italy have concluded a Convention, by which it is
stipulated that our Republic shall in future bear the title of
41 the Kingdom of Holland," and that his Imperial Highness
Prince Loots of France shall be hereditary Constitutional
King oe the same. Of the
.annual Civil List of the King,
amounting to two millions, a fourth part ‘vill be taken from
the incomes of the domains of the House of Orange. To the
Legislative Body, which will bear the title of " 'their High
IVlightinesses," the Province of Holland will send t 7, or,.
according to others. IS Members; Cuelderland, Brabant, and
Friesland, each 4; and each of the other Departments
By one one of the Articles of the new Constitution, the Military
Conscriptions will be introduced into this Country. Last.
ly, we are assured that our territory will receive an enlarge.
merit.

The great length to which the proceedings on the Trial or,
Lord MELVILLE extend in our Paper of this day, prevents
us from entering into any observations on the subject.—This
result of the Trial; however, we doubt hot will be highly
acceptable to every liberal mind, which must rejoice that,•
after the most solemn investigation, before the highest Tri.:
bunal an the. Country, and which we may justly chi66lmi=
as the first in the world, an old Servant of the Public, of dis.
tinguished abilities, and who has upon many important oc.
casions exerted those-abilities for the advantage of the State, is
restored to his proper rank in society.—The right of such in..,
quirics we never presumed to question, nor did we in the
ptesent instance. We only' resolutely objected ,to that spirit
of party and persecution, by the public press, which treated
the Noble Lard as guilty before he had been put upon his
trial. We congratulate the. Country on the progress, as well
as the issue 'of the' trial, ;as it, shews that whatever may
be the condition of other States, the course of justice pro.
ceeds with Out impediment among us ; that the highest chat-.
raaers are exposed to judicial inquiry if their condua
pears to have bees injurious to the Public, but that in she
end Innocence is sure of prote6tion.

Yesterday a Court of Diretlors was held at the East India
House for the-purpose of reading the Advices received by the
Fleet lately arrived. The Court adjourned at five o'clock tilt
Tuesday next. •
The overland Packet received yesterday at the East India
House brings nothing of importance.
The Castle Eden, and General Stuart, sailed from Ben.
coolen the 7th February last, and lett there the Ship Cal..

The Euphrates, H a sear, and the Northumberland,

The Cyrus and Charlton, Whalers, arrived off Plymouth
the gth instant, with the India Fleet.
The Walsingham Packet arrived on Wednesday at Fal•
mouth from Lisbon: she does not bring any intelligence of
importance.

The West India Fleet sailed under the Convoy of the
Alexandria Frigate, yesterday, limn Portsmouth.
We have receives{ Jamaica Papers to the 3oth April ; but
they do not bring any ►ntelligence of importance.
A report was circulated yesterday in the city, by a Gentle.
man who is said to have just arrived front New-Ydrk, that
the expectation of a War wit,h this Country MS so strong,
and so generally entertained, that the -Merchants were ac-
tually fitting out Privateers to criaize against the British
Commerce in that quarter.

We learn by letters from the Cape of Good Hope, that the
Officers who were wounded, and who behaved so gallantly at
the taking of the Settlement, were all doing duty when the
Fleet sailed. Lieut.-Colonel HONLYIN AN, who distinguish-
ed himsellas Major of the93d Regiment, had had a long cqn-
ftneinent but was then perieetly recovered; the wound this
Officer received was from a cannon shot, and its bad effeets
had been increased by the fatigue he underwent during the
remainder of the adlion.

CORN-EXCHANGE, TUNS 13..... There are to.day some
fresh arrivals of Wheat, and middling supplies at hand; the
trade is heavy in sale, prime samples are cheaper, and infe-
rior continue almost unsaleable ; good Barley keeps its price,
and Malt has few buyers ; Tick Beans are rather dearer; Oats
are in tolerable quantities, and this article does not support
last prices ; .there is much Flour of second quality at hand,
but the general price of this and other articles are at little
variation.
