TO CORRESPONDENTS.

We amid be happy to oblige our CO-NSTAM, RtADS.I,
by the insertion of any thing in favour of so respeetabl! am!
useful a Member of Society as the late Dr. WI uLls, but
haying already a..m tted two articles upon the subjea, we
cotceived that we had fully satisfied his friends on the
owasion.

ANTI-AMIRICANUS IS TOO 'violent in his attacks upon a
Nation which we hope will )et see the danger of French
policy, and oppose the extravagan-co of French ambition.
We think it proper to inform him that Dec tus has closed
bis Correspondence on the subjep, but the Letters may
be had together, in a Pamph'et just published by Mr.
Budd, Pall Mall ; Mr. Buttouyorth, Fleet-street t and
Messrs. Richardson, Cornhill.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 8, 1808.

Tim present mument teems with reports, which
it is.the duty of a Public Journalist to notice, with.
whatever doubts they may be attended.—Among
these reports it was said that the. EMPEROR of
RussJA had died suddenly, and that. BUON4PARTS
had faljeplhe vietim of assassination, or his relnia
from Italy to Paris. Another report states, that.
BUON&PARTE had been driven by the fury of the.
populace from Milan, and that he fell by the hands
of an enraged multitude in Paris. Both of these re-
Toni are almost too absurd to deserve any notice. It
is also rumoured that . a dispute has arisen be-

tween BUONAPARTEL,and .the EMPEROR of Russia,
about their respeaivo shares in the future division
of Turkey. Another alledged around of (Utterance
between them is the refusal of the Russian Monarch'.
toevacuate Moldavia and Wallachia till the Kum of
Payss:A shall be put into full possession of all that,
was to be allotted to him by the Treaty of Tilsit. It.
is not impossible that there may be some fountlatiers:_
for this report, as the Emperor Aimblogrmast..
be sensible of du: imprudence, not to use a harsher'
word, of whieb he wa, guilty, in assenting to 10
disgraceful a Treaty, and must see, by the condi..
Lion of the Kum of pitvhstA, what_ little de-
pendence can be placed in hip. Conjoin
The Emperor of AvsTaii4,, too, is invlipatod: ipso, those
-various rumours, and it is said that to the demand's*
BuoNAPARTE, that Trieste should be shut agelk*
this Country, he has given a decide 4 seAssal.. This
report, we fear, has co probable basis,, for If. Elio..
NAPARTS should make such a demand, atui, coital!
Bering the violence of hi* temper, the extent ot his
views, and his hostility to Great Britain, it is very.
likely that he should do so; it does not seem. very .
probable that the Court of Vienna. would have firm
ness enough. to resist it. But the arrival et
TALLEYRAND in Holland has been a fruitful'

Private accounts froM Holland to the 31st ult.
were received yestetday, btolght by tin American
Gentleman, who arrived at Itrartnouth on tiii**.
ceditig day. • They confirm the statement, of the
arrival of TALLETAAND in that country. The pits.
.ailing opinion continued- to be, that that wily' pchi,,

it was known that he had already proceeded to Kitt
the necessarydirettions, in respa tb4'7-the ?bandit;

commercial distress of the country became °veil
day more and more severe, and the Merchants we
all itle state of the utmost consternation *n4 di*
pondency. •
Yesterday morning, several Merchants end- lirSO•
kers waited on the CHANCIILLOR of the Exculk.
aunt, to request that he would prevail on the .44'
inanity to direct our Cruisers, after having exa.
mined Neintals, not to write the word searched up
on their papers, as; according to the French De•
creel, that acA Nas sufficient evidence for their con*
deturiation on their arrival at any port- under the
contronl of Prance. The CH/ones-lon of theiLiti
cnannita, we understand, observed, that no such
direttion could .be given by the 4dmiralty, 0
Government had determined not to 'relax any et
