THE PASS OF-THE CATARO

• A very eXtraorCinary evidence of the origin of
sArAiTE's value for this import= Pass is inexistence;
and, what is remarkable, -it has-been so for 7 years,
without having been hitherto much noticed. Dur-
ing the French Revolution' two adventurers, Nicol.°
and Dtmo STEPHANOPOLT, were employed, first by
the Committee of Public Safety, and afterwards by
" the General in Chief 13oNirARTE," upon missions
into Greece, as propagandists and discoverers of
What could be done therefor the benefit of :France.
Their travels were published in Paris in 17A, of
course, not without the permission of the French
Government. From one of their volumes Nye ex.-

tray the following interesting conversation, whidi
DIMO professes to have had-with BONAPARTE, at the
head-quarters at Milan, in July 1797, on the ,subjea
of the Peace then negotiating between the'Emperor
ofGermany and France'.

" Dimo:—Do_you, as it- is rumoured, cede Dal-
matia to the Emperor ?"
" Bonap-arte,-7-Does that astonish you ?"
Dimo.—Much ; excuse my freedom ; my claims
are founded on local and. political information. • In
posspssim of Dalmatia, the Emperor, if he ehuses
it, will be soon master of Albania and Weece.—
The Sclavonians of the mouth of the Ca_ taro
and Monte Negro, ,who can bring into .the field
35,000 men, inveterate enemies of Turkey, border
On the. Dalmatian frontier : these, and the Albanians
of the adjoining parts, will receive the Emperor with
open arms; and, as his Army will fortify- itself, as it
advances, what can hinder him from extending his
conquests to Constantinople ?'
" Bonaparte (somewhat moved).—The Emperor
will not pass these limits."
The-narrative ends with ,stating, that the maps
were then' examined--:- and Dim° presumed from
Bo NAPAIITE'S' silence that he yielded to his opinion.

UNlorr7.l-14itt..—Ayoung woman,of an interesting.
appearanCe, :was brought tip yesterday by Colling-
bourne, the Officer, who had apprehended her hi the
morning, on :a charge of going round on what is
called the Evening Sneak, to Charles-street; Lam-
beth, the preceding
,evening„ there
.entering ,the
dwelling-house of G.-Pragrave, and taking away
from thence a large quantity of linen and Wearing
apparel, wet. and dry. The Officer being applied
to, went in search of the depredator, and found her
with a part of the property, and traced another part.
The ProscutOr owned his property ;, and the girl's
defence being tears only, Mr. EVASC',II, the Sitting
Magistrate, committed her for trial at the Sessions,
abating the capital part of the offence. -
