Sir
JOHN DASHWOOD'S family mansion at West
bycombe was nearly destroyed on Friday se'nnight
Y accident. One, of the
.servants having placed
t‘''opounds of gunpowder in the oven to dry, it
,a(lght fire, as it is supposed, from some dying em_
firers which were remaining (the oven having been
used the preceding day). The explosion alarmed
the family. It parted:the Oven asunder, broke all'the
IYindows in the housekeeper's 'room, and over
,flrned several pleces.of furniture. The Butler, who
as in the pantry near the accident, felt the shock
violently, as to be thrown on the ground at some
Qstance, but providentially was not materially.hurt.
tr JOHN, with the assistance 'of the servants, put a
,_top to further mischief,' by applying buckets of
IZater to that part of the house where the accident

a glorious and solid Peace, bacoui Government did
not know how to make it, they lost time in disput_

Men, who have recently declared in' Pailiainent that •
the general pacification overwhelmed 'them with
despair. Those. Ministers,' alarmed at seeing
France and England. singly engaged, endeavoured

Army then passed into Switzerland; where it 'was
not equally successful ; it retreated into Germany, •
and afterwards retistried • home. About this time
intelligence was-received that the Porte had' con_
eluded a Treaty with the General of;-the French
Army in Egypt. The English Government, however,
• questioned the right Of The Porte to treat for the re-
covery of one o its own Provinces, and' aanally
demanded, as the price of its 'compliance, that
Alexandria, the key- to Egypt, should 'be 'put
into theii hands ; afterwards appropriated Malta
to themselves, notwithstanding the • Treaties

thrown 8000 'Russian' Prkoners into -our handS-,
which the First Consul restored to 'their- Country
without ransom. This At of courtesy' had a
strong effect upon the mind of PAUL, who soon
after declared LiMself if the head of the Northern
League, for the purpose of giving freedom to the
Seas. 'The period W:is approaching when the Eng.:
lish were abok to-be attacked in those distant pos-
sessions frOm which she draws her riches, with
whiclishe periodically disturbs the peace of Europe.'
The battle off Copenhagen was about 'to be expiated
when PAVL died, and.saved the English 'from' the
greatest danger in which 'they were ever placed.—
NeverthelesS Negotiations "were : opened 'between
this Country and RUsiia,' the'Tieaty. which is now
submitted to yoUr coniideratiOn was `signed, which
restores harmony- between thetwO Countries, and
until a' Treaty of Comnierce -is signed, hings are
put upon "the same' footing that they were before the
War, as far as can be done.

Our relations Withituslia before the War; were
founded Upon the Treaty of :1757, which placed
us in the list of the most favoured Potvets. It is
however, to be wished, that the expression, " as
far as it can be done," had been more explicit. •
The Article which stipulates, that this Treaty
shall be common to the Batavian Republic, proves
the good faith of France,. to her Allies. ,
The next -Subjett. which COSTA& proceeds to ex-
' amine, is an expression in the Treaty, viz. French
Subjelis. This 'expression he considers as im-
properly applied to the Citizens of France.=-He
acknowledges, that the Writers upon the Laws
of Nations 'and the Grammariaris always used the
word
." Subject" indiscriminately, whether applied
, to a RepubliC br a Monarchy. But, in point Offaa,
the expreksion waS not meant to apply- to the
French CitiZens, but merely to. the Emigrants..
Immediately after his accession, PAut. had shewn'
that he' took a- very strong interest in' the af-
fairs of the Emigrants, and' had even called the
Chief of thern into his dominions.- When the
negociarion took place between the two :Powers,
. the French demanded that he should withdraw
his proteCtion from the Emigrants ; alter some
negociationi tip'dn' this *point,. the• Emperor of
Russia agreed to onr-demand, :and the only ,difficulty
that remained was hoW to describe the Emigrants ;
at length the word rribjeti 'appeared 'to be' the only
one that was' fir to use:'

The Otatoi 'then proceeded to spew, that this
Treaty had 'rendered 'our situation more adanta-
geous, as far .arrelated to-the concluson of a ge.:
neral Peace. The Vein"' was-then agreed-to.
