FRONTIERS OF RUSSIA, AUG. 28.—The name of
M. D'Ousan, is no longer found in the list of the
Members of the Foreign Department at St. Peters-
burgh.
It is expeaed that a Squadron of some,Ships of
the Line and Frigates will soon sail from Cronstadt :
its destination is Corfu.

NAPLES, AUG. i 1 .—The Towns of Lagonero,
Cassano, and several villages, have been pillaged
and burnt, as they .were the haunts of Rebels.—
' Hitherto there has been no ,decisive action against
the English and the Insurgents in Calabria ; they.
are among the mountains. It is said that Marshal
will join the Corps of Generals VERDIER
and REGNIER, and give battle with all his forces.
Four English Vessels, under a Flag of Truce, yes-
terday entered this Port. They brodght the French
prisoners of ar and wounded taken in the Port of
St. Euphemia, in Calabria, to be exchanged for an
equal number of English. The Castle of Scilla, on
the Strait of Messina, in Calabria, and that of Reg-
gio, have been taken by the English ; the former by
capitUlation, and the latter by .escalade.
Seveial more arrests have taken place here : among
the persons arrested are the Pronuncio of the Pope,
and the Swedish and Sardinian Consuls. The
ci-
devant Marshal MICHEROUR Would not go with
FERDINXicp His stay at Naples must have
had some 11-16.ti%-e; and he has•been arrested. The
Duke DE GRAVIVIA has likewise been arrested at
tome.

Au i 3:--General REGNIER has joined Marshal
MASSENA at Cassano.

ROME, AUG. i6.=-=The whole -of the French
Troops in our vicinity have received orders to march
for Calabria. Those 'at Ancona, and on the Coast
of the Adriatic Sea, have likewise orders to break
up. The Polish Regiment 'of Cavalry, and the-Re-
giment of Latour d'Auvergne, that were cantoned
at &me, go to Naples. The depot of the !Wish
Corps at Mantua has likewise received orders to
break up.
The late Papal Agent at Naples, CAPARUCCI, haS.
been arrested there.

HAGUE, SEPT. 6.—Since the intelligence of the
fefusal of Russia to ratify the Treaty concluded by
M. D'OtmRIL at Paris arrived here, great apprehen-.
sions have been entertained that a new war will
break out on the Continent. It is true that fresh
propositions for Peace have•been made on the part
of Russia, but it is feared that these will experience
Many diffidulties. The hope of Peace between France
and England has also greatly diminished; and our
funds have again suddenly fallen. The Batavian Re-
aCriptions are at 666. There was a mutiny on board
ane ofthe Ships in the Texel on the day appointed
for taking the oath to the King,. as the crew pre-
tended that the change of the flag authorized them
to make 'a new engagethent. This revolt was, how-.
ever, soon quelled by the resolution and presence of
mind of Admiral DE WINTER, who shot the ring-
leader'of the mutineers dead with a pistol; the crew
immediately submitted and took the oaths.
DUSSELDORFF, SEPT. 4.--On the first instant there
was a meeting of 'the Deputies of the DuChy of
Cleves and Berg. The Grand Duke was seated on
the throne, and the Members took the oaths of fide-
lity to him. Alter the ceremony he addressed a
speech to the Deputies, which he commenced by
Stating, " that the god-like prescience and 'confidence
of that Great. Man, who at present astonishes all the
world, had called him to the sovereignty of the
Arch Dukedom.+'

CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. hen the Porte re-
ceived information of the revolt in the town of Adri-
anople; a Bashaw was sent to bring back the insur-
gents to their duty; but he was put to death in that
place. Most of the Troops sent against Adrianople
have deserted to the enemy.—,The Dutch Charge
d'Affaires, M. TESTA, has delivered to the Reis Ef-
fendi, and also to all the Diplomatic Corps here,-.an
official notification of the change which has taken
place in the Government of Holland.
FROM THE MAINE, SEPT. French Gene-
ral REIN\VALD has the charge of assembling the Aus-
trian prisoners in the territories of Wirternburgh and
Baden. They are to be formed into divisions of 400
men each, and will be marched by Ulm; Friedberg;
and Haag, towards Burghausezi. There are to be
two other points of rendezvous near Landsberg and
Donanwerth. Cataro, which has not yet been given
up to the French, is a most important fortress. Who-
ever possesses it commands the Adriatic Sea. Large
Fleets may find shelter in the three basons which are
formed by the bays of Cataro, and may sail in un-
observed. In fact, Cataro is not only the laraest
but the most secure haven in the Adriatic. It is
most favourably situated for either commercial or
' military expeditions to all parts of. Turkey. Who-
ever possesses it may, without difficulty, send fleets
to the Morea and Egpt, or other points of the
African Coast.

ERLANGEN. .SEPT. 2 .—We do -not yet perceive
the least appearince of the speedy return of the
French Troops to France. We learn, from Anspach,
that the Prince of Ponte Corvo (BERNADOTTE) had
all his equipage packed up in the castle since 'he
20th, but on the 30th he received an important dis-
patch from Paris, since which.great a6tivity prevails
among the Troops, and frequent journeys of Cou-
riers have taken place.

AUGSBURGH, SEPT. I.—We understand that the,
French are forming a Camp of 20,000 men between
Donauwerth and Notsllingen. All tire invalids be-
longing to the Corps of Alarshal Souur are sent to
France. The .French expea that a great number of
military bake-houses will again be established here.
BERLIN,• SEPT. 6.—On the 2d Schiller's Maid of
Orleans was performed at our theatre, before a
crowded and splendid audience. The military and
patriotic passages were loudly applauded. One verse
excited the greatest enthusiasm. It expressed the
:duti, of the people to make sacrifices fur the defence
`of their King and Country, and contained also this

3elitirnent, '" that a tAtIOn i;f..trorthlt!ss which dOea
not jo.yfully.stake,tts. all in support'o, its honout."

The Finance Patent published by ihe Emperor of
Auftria.commences 'by stating, " that a series of c4'.;
amities, which the inscrutable wisdom of Provi.:-
.dence has permitted to,attend that Monarch's reign
during fifteen years, have not so much afilieled the
Royal breast as the present necessity which com-
pels him to lay fresh burdens upon his people, for
the purpose of assisting the weakness of the State,
and removing the evils which remain as the natu-
ral consequences of the late Wars.

" These Wars, which have succeeded each other
with little intermission (it is observed) have been
more expensive than any that the Monarchy have
ever undertaken. The expence of each campaign
has far exceeded the sum total of the usual annual
revenue of, the State.
" The resources of foreign loans, to which the
Emperor's ancestors had recourse, it is remarked,
were rendered useless by the change which bad
taken place in political relations ; and the operations
of domestic loans were found to be too slow, and in
their issue too uncertain ; so that even these could
not be made to cover more than the fourth of the
expenditure of a single campaign; and therefore to
provide for the rest of the necessary expences mere-
ly by forced loans, and extraordinary impbsts, would
have been destruCtive of the well-being of the sub-'
jea—especially when a succession of 'bad harvests
had produced a dearth, and •when several thou-
sands of hands had been taken from the plough
and from the work-shops'of the mechanic; and,
lastly, when...the- restristions upoTi commerce and
the arts had imposed new limitations Upon the
revenue.

" In this situation nothing remained to tbe Go-
vernment but the, increase of paper, which, with
the yearly accumulation of the interest, tended to
multiply the exigencies of the State ; arid this (it is
observed), notwithstanding the limitations already
introduced into every branch of the public expendi-
ture, and other reforms which the Monarch has in
view, is still inadequate to the competency requi-
site to the support of the State.
"'Such a crisis (it is added), unless met with
firmness, and combated with resolution; must aug-
ment the danger both of the Sovereign add the
Subjed. The Emperor, therefore, not. doubting
of the fidelity and patriotism of his Hereditary
States, expresses the same confidence in his sub-
jeCts in Transylvania, and Hungary."
The Emperor concludes with acknowledging the
regret which he feels in consequence of being com-
pelled to lay fresh burdens upon his faithful people ;
and observes, that the magnitude of the evil de-
mands a quick and alive remqdy. He therefore in
the first place proposes to remove the most pressing
of these calamities, viz. the overflow of the Vienna
Bank Bills, and to -establish a Fund for their recall
and total annihilation. The Patent afterwards pro-
ceeds to state the conditions of the new loan, and
also that the new duties upon salt, tobacco, postage
of letters, &c. are only to remain in force five years ;
the revenue arising from these duties is to be solely
appropriated to the raising of a Fund for the liquida-
tion of 'the, Vienna Bank Bills.

It is likewise stated, that the tax. on gold and
silver plate, the use of which has uncommonly in-
creased among all descriptions, is also'' calculated
to: introduce current coin in the room of paper,
and to restore the Government paper to its origi-
nal value.

The Emperor admits that be, cannot yet entirely
excuse the Provinces from contributions in kind
for the support of the Military : however, he is
willing to relieve them from that which has been
the most burthensome—namely, the contribution of
corn; a tax in lieu of this is very shortly to be
brought forward. A stamp upon various kinds of
ware is also agreed upon. • .
By the means of the present Patent, and the as-
sistance of his Kingdom of Hungary and the Duke-
dom of Transylvania,, and in consequence of his
Majesty's exertions .to preserve the continuation
of Peace inviolate, for the happiness of his Crown
and tht✓ nations entrusted to him by Providence,
and of his desire of which he had lately given an
irrefragable proof, his Majesty hopes, under the
proteetion of the Almighty; to arrive at, a happier
state, and to witness the much wished-far period
when he shall be enabled to enjoy the consolation
of removing those heavy burthens from the shoul,
ders of his subjeCts, which an unfortunate concut-
rence of untoward events have obliged him to lay
upon them.

On the first of Sel)ternber an Excise Duty was
also to be laid upon all-fresh fowl, game, and wine
brought into Vienna.
