After the unfortunate battle of Marengo, the Etna
peror of Germany sent in July; .1800, his Genera),
Count DE. Sr. JULIEN., to Paris, empoWered 0111,r
to negotiate an .exchange of prisoners, an&to rep.'

Italy during, the then suspenkion of arms ; hint. itt
stead ef arrangrtig-e-vith.him the btisineis that brought
him to the I.;:rent) 'capital, TA RAND cajoled him
into the signature of Preliminaries' of Peace ; and
persuadedhim, with thiS curious document in his
pocket, imened ately to set. out f6r Vienna, that Me
intrigues of .Englend might-vat preveirt its ?Wee,
tion 'by his Sovereign. As Count DE ST, JULIE/4
had negotiated without instructions, and without
,permission, the Preliminaries were disowned by the
Cabinet of ;Vienna, and the Volunteer Negotiator
justly 'disgraced. Besides .the surprise this transace
tion occasioned in England, then, as well A now,
negotiating with France, it lett every where. upon
the Continent an impression favourable' to the
views of the Revolutionary Government, intirni,
dated. the Continental Allies of Austria, and • added,
several housand pounds to the Revolutionary Treal
sury. of ithe political Financier, Taaateaiain, by

which.'he and his Agents did not neglet to take
advantage.
Yesterday some further information was received
cavcerning the-arrest of Daniels, by Mr. SCOTT, that
Receiver-General of the Isle of Man. He passed by
Melanie a DENNIS, and said he.was an Irishman.
In offering the 2001. Bank Note for change he was
aware that an en-or had been madein the number,
and thia gave him confidence. He appeared so per!
feetly indifferent that Mr. SCOTT gave up the charge
and he was liberated. He then set off for the town
of Ramsey, but it occurred to Mr. SCOTT, on refleEte
ing on all the matters, that he resembled the descrip,
tore- --of the person advertised so perfectly, that he
should do wrong not to secure hicn—he therefore
overtook him on the road and took.him into custody.
He then became sulky, and would give nu answer :
but he was soon -atter recognized and identified by
Mr. NANTIS, the partner of the late Mr. Muzw444l,
who now keeps a,public-house in the Island.
The -extraordinary efforts that have been used
.(and by none more than the Jews) to deteet 'Da-
niell, and 'the success which has attended them,
will be the means of preventing.any similar rob-
bery. from being committed, as the villain must be
convinced, that notwithstanding his utmost cau=
tion and well-concerted plans, the' chance of his
escape would-be next to impossible, Had Daniels
taken the route of the Continent, We are per-
suaded he would have been equally disappointed
in hiss hopes, of escape, as EDWARD THORNTON.,
Esq„&nr Minister at Hamburg!), had, unsolicited,
used, the utmost vigilance to have him deteaed,
in _wh?tvver place he might be found within the
circle' of' his power .and, influence. This Gentle-
man wrote to Mr. ABRAHAM GOLDSMID, through
the medium. of the SECRETARY of STATE'S
Tice, from namburgh, apprising him of .what he
had - done towards effeeting the apprehension of
Daniels,: he said, that, having seen the-atrocious
robbery in the -English Newspapers, he thought
it his duty to•advcruse the atfair in The Man? gie
Coreesponciergen, on account of its immense cir-
culation • with the addition, that it Paniels was
arrested and delivered to hini at Hamburgh, he
would ,engage, on his being identified in England,
to pay :the reward set forth in the advertisement,
beiOg assured that these Gentlemen who
made themselves responsible in the first instance,
would enable him in -tine time to fulfil his en-
gagement.
