LONDON, SEPTEMBER is, 1801.

A Letter has been received in town from Mun-
ster, dated on the evening of the 4th inst. in .s hich
it is said that the EleEuion of a Bishop had that day
taken place, in despite of the intrigues, the promises
and the threats of M. VON Dorm, and that the
ARCHDUKE ANTONY had obtained all the Votes.
The Count of WESTPHAL err had arrived on the same
thy and had, no doubt, contributed to give effeet to
the Eleaion. He. was the bearer to the Chapter of
the thanks of His IMPERIAL MAJESTY, and of the
intelligence that the ARCHDUKE ANTONY had al-
ready taken the first Ecclesiastical Degree, and
was' preparing to receive in turn all the others.

Thus has this Eletion been concluded in the face
of France and Prussia, and against their formal
protestations on the subjea. What will be the
consequences of this transaaion we shall not pre-
tend to determine, The ENIPEROK has doubtless
given a strong proof of his courage, and it is im-
possible to avoid applauding it, since, although in-
deed he pursued his own interest in supporting the
Election, he at the same time maintained the Rights
and the Ancient Constitution of the ConfederAcy
of which he is the Head. If his force be equal to
his courage, a War would unquestionably be the
consequence of this measure, but the union of
Prussia and of France on this question, their supe-
•riority of strength, snd the little interest which
the ENT? ERO it appears to take in the affairs of the
Empire, lead us to fear that Austria will find
room to retraa in this affair, or else to repent her
courage. We sincerely hope we may be deceived
in this apprehension.

The PR INC ESS. of WALES, accompanied by Lord
Hoop, went down to South Church, on the Essex
Coast, on Tuesday last, to see the PRINCESS
CHARLOTTE, with whom she remained till noon
the next day, and then returned to Blackheath.
At the DUKE of Yoßit's inspedion of Dover
Castle, the great guns were manned by the Hunt-
ingdon Militia, assisted by a detachment of the
Royal Artillery, who fired a Royal Salute ; the
East front of the Castle was manned with the troops
of the Northampton and North Gloucester Militia,
who kept up a quick fire of musquetry from the
ramparts as His Royal Highness passed, at this
time the Enemy being supposed to have efrefled a
lodgment, the troops retired through a sally-port,
when the Du:el.:, with General Ho e.v, and Aids.
c‘,l(niel Twtss, 8,4 C. followed the sell_
criers through the ially-poit ; but on their ar-
rival at one of-the suffocating rooms, the trap-door
was let down, and a ball of combustibles set fire
to, the stench of which was so powerful, as quickly
to oblige the Royal Visitor and his retinue to a sud-
den retreat. ,His Royal Highness expressed his
batisfaaioti at the strength of the works, which are
deemed capable of resisting an Army of 30,000 men
for two months ; the whole have been put in good
repair, the Citadel has been nude bomb proof, and
six 6S_pounders are to be mounted on the top of it,
to command the neighbouring heights.
