FIRST. ra.GIgENT. OF ARTILLERY!

SOLDIER s,

Your conduct in the Citadel Turin has been. heard of in
every part of Europe. Our E rejoiced at seeing you
disobedient to orders and guilty. A feeling of profound sor-
row in the hearts of your Fellow-citizens, preceded the cry!,
of vengeance. You have perfornied great services—you are
covered with henottrable wounds; you have received them
in advancing the glory, of the Republic—she has triumphed
over her Enemies, andliolds the first rank among thc Powers !.
pnt what avails such greatness," if her undisciplined chil-
dren allow themselves, to be guided by the. unbridled passions':
of a few wretches! You entered a Fortress' in a disorderly
and tumultuous manner : violating all /the regulations, and
without paying any respeet to the Flag of-the French People,
which was flying there. Nou killed the brave Officer charged
with its defence—you marched over 'his dead 'body. You
are all guilty. The Officers who could not- preserve you,
from such miscondudt, are unworthy of cornrnancliqg•you.
The colours which you deserted, and which were unable to
rally you, shall be suspended in the Temple of Mars, and
covered 'with flineral crap_e--Your Corps is dissolved..
Soldiers I
.you are to enter into new Corps; fn them give
proofs of a stria discipline. Endeavour that it may be said
of you, " it was necessary to make an example•ot them, . but
they still are what they have been, the brave and rood children
of :Lek Country."
(Signed) BONAPARTE, First Consul.
Fads, August 2,5.

This Proclamation was accompanied by four Ar-
retes, two of which relate to . the disbanding' and
recomposition of the First Regiment of Artillery,
and the other two to the arrest• of the Mutineer's,
and the ere6tion of a Statue to the memory of Citi-
zen JAQUEMAIN, Chief of Battalion, who was killed
by them on the drawbridge of the Citadel of Turin.

RATIsBoN, SEPT. 2.—On the 31st of last month
M. PLERSCH, late Professor of Canon Law, was
eleled Abbot of Elchingen, near Ulm. This elec-
ti6n is remarkable only on account of the circum-
stances.and debates which have taken place at the
Diet relative to the Bishoprics of Muniter• and
Cologne.
The Count de LEIIRBACII set of yesterday,
having previously to his departttre paid a visit to
the Minister of Cologne.
In the Sitting of the Diet of the 31st ult. Bava.
ria, Henneberg, Nanau, Lubeck, Schrwarzenberg,
Lichtenstein, the Prelates of Suabia,, Strasburgh,
Liege, Fulda, the Grand Master of the Order of
St. John, Lositow.lTz, .have voted in the College
of Princes. The eight last votes contain the de-
mand that His IMFEItIAL MAJgSTY be 'requested
to take upon himself the arrangements which are to
complete the Peace, and that to this ermL unlimited
powers he giVen to, His Majesty.—Bavaria and
Nassau have desired the appointment.of a Deputa-
tion... Lubeck and Henneberg have voted in the
same sense. The Ministers of Austria and Bohe-
mia still wait for theirinstrudions, as well as the
Ministers of several Princes.

The Baron D'OPTE DA, the Hanoverian Mini-
ster to the Diet, entered a protest,. OM the 3tst of
last month, against the complaints of Citizen BA-
CHER, respelling the levying. of men; and the ac-
counts published of the raising of men have'been
declared false by the agent of the PRINCE of LA-
VENSTRIN.WRRTHEIM. The Protest was trans-
mitted to the Imperial Direaory, and the Hano-
verian Minister held a conference on the subjeet
with the French Minister.

P 4 Si The votes are completed in the College of
Princes: Against the common ocpeflation, - the ma-
jority appears to have agreed to give the EMPEROR.
unlimited powers to complete the Peace. The visit
of M. de LiHRBACH to the Minister of Cologne
has given rise to various conjeffires.

BASLE, SEPT. Io.—Letters from /Ifrot;ch,••of the
3d of September, state, that the Treaty of'Peace
and Amity concluded at Paris, between the French
GOvernment and the ELECTOR Of BAVARIA, runs
principally upon the !three following .subjeas :
I. The ELECTOR will obtain a complete and full
indeinnity far the . part of the Palatinate, situate
upon the Left Bank of the Rhine, the Duchy of
:7/tilers,. the Duchy of Deux Prints, his possessions,
in the ci-devant Province of Alsace, (the Distrids
of .Berzzabern, Bishuiiller, Pttite Pierre, and. Ri-
beauvillier), and genetally,•for every thing teat
belonged to him in the Countries united to the
French-Republic. These Indemnities, will be giV.en•
to him, in Suabia and Franconia. -

• 2. The ELECTOR will lose none of his posses-
sions upon the Right Bank of the. Rhine; except
such as he chooses to cede to the other States of
Germany, either in exchange or otherwise. This:
Article seems to relate to -the Duchy- of. Evg,
which,, from its remoteness from his, other posses.'
skins, he might find it. advantageous to exchange.
3, All his. Patrimonial Properties on the Left
Bank of the. Rhine, and not sold as National Goods,
will be restored to the ELECTOR, .FO be, possessed
by him in future, as all otherkproperty possessed in
France, by submitting in every thing that concerns.

the two Ger Man Regiments of Waldeck and Saxe
Gotha, . and the French Troops in the pay of the
Batavian Republic. Other reforms are also pro-
je4ed '; and a treat part of the saving thus efFeeted,
will be appropriated to the restoration of the.Dutell
Navy, which at•present claims all the attention of
Government.

MADIUD, Auo. lg.—The Court 'of Portugal
has appointed M. FREYRE, Ministei Plenipoten-
tiary, to negotiate a definitive Peace with France,
through the medium of the Ambassador Bo NAr ARTE.
It appears that the conferences will be speedily
opened, this Minister having,arrived here two days
ago. In the mean time French troops continue to
advance by way of Baydnne, to reinforce the A'rmy
which is on its march towards the frontiers of Por-
tugal, and which by this time cannot be less than
35,000 men.
The Portiigueze Army, notwithstanding all the
requisitions, and all the efforts to increase it, does
not amount to more than zo,ooo men. The very
great disproportion of Force between the two Ar-
mies,' leads us to suppose that the Portugueze Ple-
nipotentiary will accede to all the Conditions pro-
posed, and that Hostilities will consequently, be
prevented.

His Majesty has issued a Decree, suppiessing
the Staff of the Army which has so gloriously
terminated the War with Portugal, and directing
the Prince of Peace to organize our Land and Sea
Forces upon a new and more economical plan.

INDEMNITIES IN GEtkMO;NY.

V 0.12 Of SAVAR.IA. IN THE SITTING dip, THE GIST

OF AUGUST.

His IMPERIAL MAJESTY did not give his sane-
tion. to the Cont.lusurn of . the 30th of April ; but
invited the Diet, by the Decree of Imperial Com-
mission, of the 36th of June, to come; in prefer-
ence to all Other measures, to a final deciiion re-
speaing the objeas which remain to be settled by a
particu;ar arrangement,. in order to complete the
Peace of the Empire, and to co-operate in that man-
ner to the definitive conclusion of this important
affair. His Serene and Ele.4otal Highness acknow-
ledges,
,with the snicerest gfatittide, the paternal.,
sentiments- expressed by the Supreme Head of the
Empire in that Declaration, and feels him Self
in consequence of His Imperial Majesty's
demand, to state
.with his accustomed 'candour his
opinibni both With respett to the principles and the.
manner which ought to be adopted in order to regu.
late the objects which remainto be settled. •
The Treaty of PeaCe concluded at Luneville by
His IMPERIAL MAI am in his own namel and in

• fied • "
orthe Empire,. and rati -by,
Corps, again confirms by • the 6th Article the
sion of the Left Bank 'of the-Rhine to France, such
as it hAtibeen_scttled at the Congress Of Rastadt,
but it also guarantees by the 7th Article; indenini:.
ties ta.the Secular Princes fur their losses by that
cesitit*,stin- conformity to the principles Solemnly
established on that
,subjea at the Negotiations of
Rastadt. According to the Notes exchanged at the
Congress of Peace
.between the Flenipotentiarie2 of
the. French Republic
.and 'the Deputation of the Ent:
Aire, these principles are—" -That -the- States of
Germany suffering losses, Shall be indemnified on
the Right Bank of the Rhine, and that such in:.
deninities shall be effettliated by the 'means of Seca:.
larizations in the' interior of the Empire." :

These.two:principles having been adopted and
expressly confirmed in the said "'reaty of Peace of ,
Lvneville„
,bythe paternal precaution of His hie
RI AI: MAJESTY, are, in virtue:of the 7th
considered as the principal basis ,recognized and
sa.nOioned between France; His IMPERIAL MA.
J EsT r, and the Germanic Body, and should, previous:.
ly to- all other considerations, be :expressly declares

the way of transacting the. affairs relative to. thi;
complete adjustment of PeacP, which may be stib..'
witted to the deliberations of the D,iet.

1. 'The objets entitled to the indemnities, in
conformity to the decisions of the Diet, are deter-
mined by the 7th Article of the Treaty of Lune:,
vine, relative to the Secular Princes who have.been
deprivedof.theirpossessions on the Left Bank of the
Rhine by the cession of that Bank. z. The in-
dembities are to be regulated' according to the
losses,. which are to he estimated by statistical .va:.
luations, which depend upon the extent of terri-
tory., the population) • and, the revenue: The States -
deprived-Of ..their territories are to lay before the
Diet the Accounts and Propositions necessary to in-
stitute ,more ample investigations) and to obtain
morelirecise:Esiimates: •After,.vards Seeularizations
will beassigned to each according to their losses ;
anti, for.this z.nd, it Will, be necessary to establish
the principle that each shall be indemnified, so that
his. possessions upon 'the Right Bank shall he round..
ed as.inuch as possible. Not only justice towards
these .Stittes solicits. the adoption of this principle;
_but it a necessary measure; as'weil for the safety
of.the Germanic Empire, and to Prevent a number of
differences, as to facilitate for the future the intro-
duaion'of new dispoSitions tending to' the general
welfare. of the,Empire. As the indemnities are to
be .effeaed..by means of secularization, and conse-
quently the Chapters of the. Empire are to fornn the
mass of •indemnities •conformably to the Treaty of
Peace witli:the Empire,. it naturally iestrits that no
new nominations should be made to the Benefices of
the Empire, of any class; which are vacant) or may
become so,.until the definitive conclUsion of the af-
fair of-the indemnities', but that all nominations be
beforehand declared null which 'may have taken
plate, which ought equally to be weighed in princi.
ple, and carried by the sanaion of His IMP E__IAL
MAJ:ESTY. Relatively, to 'She aaual possessions of
the .Ecclesiastical Countries, which will serve as
indemnities, it will be necessary', besides the sccu.
larizations, to wait the' modifications :nod the more
precisee-conditions which assure their future fatel-
adly, As the. urgency and the nature of this affair,
on prompt conclusion of which depends the traili
quality and the well-beiog of the •whole'Empirei.
do not permit it to be treated in a complicated man.
ner and subjet to delays; it may be 'confided as well
as from having regard to anterior'epochs, 'to a Com-
Mittee composed of small number of the States of
the Empire,. which shall be charged to acknowledge
after the rules to be established; 'the losses and
demnities of each; to determine those who-have a
right to. these last, both as to quantity and quality,
and afterwards to submit to the Diet the result of
them to serve towards the Concluru;a.

THURSDAY, SEPT. 17.

George Beach and James Phillips• were indided
for making an assault in the King's Highway, on

him in fear and danger of his life, and taking from
his person, against his will, a red leather pocket.

Thomas Otherly the Prosecutor, swore that The is

of June last, as he ryas coming from Stepney towards
his own house, through the fields, about half-past
two o'clock, as near as he could recollea, or about
a quarter before three, in the fields of Stepney, he
was robbed by three men : it was light enough for
him to see a man .boo or coo yards off : he discover-

came up to them, the one of them stopt him, and
demanded his money. The man who demanded the
money had A velveteen jacket on. The Prosecutor
told them he had no money. The same ,man who
demanded it, said, with an oath, " we will have
money, or something else." The Prosecutor told
them " to do as they pleased ;" upon which

one of them knock'd j..irn down, and took his
pocket-book out of his right hand pocket—it
contained nothing but a few memorandums, and
some receipts for rent. He never recovered his
pocket-book again. He was sure it" was the
same man who demanded his money, knocked him
down and took out his pocket-book. The man
who stood by when this was done, had a brown
coat and a blue jacket under it, and that man said,
" It is of no use to beat him any more, for he has
got nothing to beat him for." They then left him
and he came towards home, and made tue best of
his way. The man with the velveteen jacket he
described to be the Prisoner Beach. He said he
knew the Prisoner Phillips, and he said it was he
made use of the expression " do not beat him any
more, it is of no use, he has got, nothing to beat him
for." The Prosecutor said, I was then pettedly
sober as I am now ; I had been drinking in the
evening, but I had slept afterwards. After I left
these men I met Haynes, one of the Shadwell Police

Officers, just as I came out of the fields near Rat-
cliffe Highway ; I told him I had been robbed, and
if he would go into the field with me I would en.
deavour to take the thieves. He said, he could
not go with me because he was going with Lawn he
bad the charge of, but he told me, if you will relate
it to my brother Officer he will help you. Between
seven and eight in the same morning, I went to the
White Lion, where I knew the Police Officers used
to go, and I saw Brown and Holdsworth there.—
, I communicated to them that I had been robbed; I
described the persons of the men who robbed me,
as I did to Haynes, and as I describe them to.day.
I heard nothing afterward till they were appre-
hended, and I saw them at the Office, which I sup_
pose might be a month afterwards, and then I
knew them ; I had never seen the Prisoners. before, to
know them ; there were three of them brought to
the Office, but I knew only two of them. As to
them, when I saw them, I had not the least doubt
they were two of the men who robbed me ; I have
not the least doubt now, but I am positively sure
they are the two men.
On his cross-examination he said, among
,many
other things, that he had been drinking at the Ship,
public-house, at Stepney, with some bell-ringers,
who had a rejoicing on the evening of the Bth of
June, the night before he was robbed; that he haci
been the worse for liquor, but had recovered by
sleep, befbre he came out of the house, which was
about two • o'clock : but that he had not had any
quarrel with any body in the public house :—that
he saw, on the following day, one of the men 'he
had been drinking with, but did not mention the .
circumstance of his lqaving been robbed ; he thought
it better to leave that to the Officer to whom he had
communicated the whole.

'Haynes, one of the Officers of the- Police, con-
firmed every thing the Prosecutor had sworn to, as
to the description he gave of the persons of the men
who robbed him, of their being apprehended, and
of the Prosecutor pointing the two Prisoners out
when they were brought to the Public-Office, be-
fore the Magistrates; and also said, the Prosecutor
was perfectly sober when the witness met him after
the robbery.
Another Officer of the Police, to whom the. Pro-
secutor also related the circumstance of his being
robbed, aild to whom he had described the persons
of the Prisoners,. gave an account which agreed ex-
anly with the description he had given of their per.
sons to Haynes, adding some things as to the stature
of the Prisoners, &c.
On the part Of the Prisoners two witnesses were
examined. They said, they were - two ringers of
bells, who had been ringing a peal to their new
Ream-, on ,the Bth of June : that they had a meet.
ing in the evening of that day, at the Ship, public.
house, at which they all drank. very freely : that
the Prosecutor' came there !MI6 in liquor : that
be sat clown. wish one Caley, who, it appeared
by their conversation, was known to him,
they aid a wager which of them could chalk
the furthest on the floor, from' the same spot.
This man beat the Prosecutor considerably in chalk-
ing, but the prosecutor quarrelled with him,-instead
Of paying the wager, and this man knocked the Pro-
secutor down, gave him a blow that occasioned a
swelling as large as a pidgeon's egg. in 'a few
minutes. The Prosecutor was very much in liquor ;
they all drank very fi'eely, but the Prosecutor was,
by much the drunkest man in -the company-; he.
had. drank a great deal of gin as well:as beer. He
went off f?om the Ship. Public-house, about two
o'clock, and it is about 'a quarter
,of a mile from the
field .where the Prosecutor said he was robbed.—
One of these two Ringert of bells met the Prosecu-
tor on the evening of the 9th. of June, and asked
him, How he got home on the night before ? He
said, Very well, but that he fell in field, and
rolled very much in some cow dung ; btu -s%'d not
one word about his being robbed. - - •
