The,English Papers says, that;M. Grro has ob-
tained several facilities hitherto panted, only 'to
Ambassadors, and vvhich much abridge the.:Nego-
dation. 'His dispatches are sent without being ex-
amined. and no longer require the disguise of a. cor-
respondence relative to Prisoners of War.

The Moniteur contains a Consular -decree for the
admission of part of the Piedmontese Army into
the French.

They write from the Hagt;r, that the Sea has so
penefrate.', the works that form the Port of Zuyder
Z'4 in Zenland, that the greater part sunk "on the
zBth August, and was swallowed up by the waves.
Several of.the inhabitants have left the Town, to
establish themsecves elsewhere. The Government
have taken efficacious measures for the reuriry of
the'Country.

RATIsBON, AUG, 3o.—Yesterday a Courier ar-
rived here from Pari,c with dispatc!.res, which -are
supposed to, be of the greatest irriportance,.from the
circumstance that a. sitting of the Diet was very-
.
tanexpeaedly convoked.
BouLboNz,. SEPT..S.--The division of Gun-
•
boats, 'Composed of sixteen Vessels, which waited'
at DienSe for' a favourable wind and an
io reacki this Port, arrived here this night, except
one boat, which was probably wrecked fOur leagues
off at the mouth of-the Canche. If is possible that
she met withtlainage, which did not permit her to
-proceed, for the wind was. very violent from the-
West Ward and the sea high. . Troops were, imme-
diately sent to the neighbourhood, and several
pieces of cannon -were placed so as tcrprevent the;
English from possessing themselves of her, before
she could be so relieved as to.,continue her route.
It 'is thus, -that all the divisions of our Armed
.Vessels successively join the-Flotilla, and succeed in
deceiving the vigilance of the English Cruizers. If
there be circumstances,, under whieb the English
Cannot prevent a numerous division of boats from
passing out of Cherbout g• to Boulogne, how can they
prevent us from making a passage of five hours.
And if the. English Government can neither hinder
the assembling of our Forces, nor destroy them at
the point of union, as they have announced, nor
pute the passage With us, how will they be able. to
_restore the confidence of their People against the
panic terrors of an Invasion
The 'Westerly wind, which has driven the Eng-
lish from our Coast was so violentohat one of their •
Ships, after rlinning out all her cable, was obliged to
cut it. The English left a buoy, that they might
find their cable at their return. General LA-rouckf
whom nothing escapes, perceived this= buoy, . and
I sent out a boat which cut it away.

NELSON is still at Deal. lf they prepare to attack
us a third time, they will find us well disposed to
receive -them.
