THE HAMBURGH MAIL.

NAPLES, AUG. (S.—The Italian 'Gazettes repre-
sent the state of Calabria as most deplorable. It is
true the richest and principal families have remained
faithful to King JOSEPH ; but the common people,
it is said, are every where in insurrealion, and com-
mit the most cruefatrocities. It is asserted, that the
Bishop of Cozenza pas been -crucified, and piereed
with lances, till heexpired. The crime imputed to him
is, that he went out with his Clergy to meet King
JOSEPH on his arrival. They put to- scleatli,- -with
tortures, a;i the French Soldiers who .fall into their
hands. General REGNIER has declared, according
to the same Gazettes, that he is not able to under-
to .n; thing against these Rebels before' the ar-
rival.of Marshal MASSENA.
General STUART IS. in Calabria, ,with a Cotps of
8000 English, among which there are 1500 Scotch.
Great numbers of the Insurgents have joined him ;
but he has not been able' to restrain their ferocious
barbarity. Unfortunate Calabria experiences all the
horrors of War. The unhappy situation of. this
Province has induced King JOSEPH to declare it in
a state of War, 2.-.3d to exercise towards the inhabi-
tants all the rigour which justice and. the laws will

permit.
The following is the Ordinance published here
relative to this Country :

Calabria is declared in a state of war.
2. All Civil and Military Authority is vested in
Marshal MASSENA.

3. He is- empowered to appoint Militatiy Com-
missioners, whose sentences shall be carried into
execution, without appeal, in 24 hours.

. _
4. The Troops shall be maintained by the Coun-
tries in insurreaion.
b. The estates of the Rebels shall he sold for the
benefit of the Communei which maintain the
Troops.

6. Those convents whose Superiors do not give
information to the next General, what Monks be-
longing to them have taken up arms, served as spies
to the Enemy, or excited the people to insurretlion,
shall be shut up ; those of
.the Monks who are
above 70 years of age shall be transferred to other
convents, and the rest banished, and, if they return,
be punished with death.
7. Those who have estates and have left the
Kingdom, and have not availed themselves of the
perthission to return, but wait the issue of the re-
bellion, shall be considerei as enemies to the State,
and have their estates confiscated.

8. The National Guards called out in the provinces
shall receive, so long as they are in service, the same
pay as the Troops of the Line.
g. Whoever does not belong to the National
Guard, and yet does not deliver up his fire-arms, or
other forbidden weapons, shall be punished by the
Military Commission with death.
10. \Veil-disposed persons shall be indemnified
for the losse's they may suffer from the Rebels.
T. Those Communes which shall deliver up the
ringleaders of the Rebels shall be exempted from all
contributions. JOSEPH.

Ukase relative to the Troops has now appeared :

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, :806.

LAST night we received a regular set of Moniteurs
to the ist inst. And Dutch Papers to the 31 st ult.
The Hamturgh Mail due on Sunday also arrived.
We have made copious extra&s from these Papers,
which will be found to be of the highest importance.
The most interesting article of intelligence to which
we have to call the attention of our Readers is the
refusal of the EMPEROR of RUSSIA to ratify the
Treaty signed by M. D'OuBRIL at Paris. When the
terms of that Treaty were made known, we stated
our opinion that the Russian Minister had exceeded
his instru&ions, and that the Treaty would not be
ratified. That opinion has been confirmed. On
the arrival of M. D'Ouarin. at St. Petersburgh, a
Grand Council was held, consisting of the following
Members :

The Baron Ds BL:Dasac, Minister for Foreign Affairs.

. .
The Pritwc L A PO (Atte rat, Minister or Justice.
The Cotnte Ka.rctio,ullE Y, Misaistel• of the Interior.
The Curnte:LA VA DOFSIC Y, Minister of Public Instrudion.
The Comte VASIL/ Er. Aiintster oethe Finances.
The Comte Rot ANr zo F Minister of CommerCe. And
Cencial VASMITINOFF, Minister of the Land Forces.

The .fEMPRROR attended the Council in person,
and uponi its breaking up it was officially notified to
all the foreign Ministers.resident in St. Petersburgh
that the Treaty would not be guided, and M. GROS-
-IIOUSKY, a Knight of Malta, was sent to Paris to
announce his IMPERIAL MAJESTY'S determination.
He arrived there on the 30th ult, and on the. tst inst.
BASILIC° was dispatched by Lord LAUDERDALE.
There .can be very little doubt that his Lordship
was apprised of the fa& of the rejeition of the
Treaty before he 'sent off the Messenger; his Dis-
patches must have been highly important, as they
would of course describe the impression made upon
the French Government by • that event. What
effed it will have upon the Negotiation pend-
ing between this Country and France we cannot
pretend to determine ; but we think it highly pro-
bable that it will make BONAPARTE more anxious to
conclude a Peace with Great Britain. There can be
no doubt but that one of the leading objefts of
BONAPARTE'S policy has been, if possible, to edit&
a 'Complete separation between Great Britain and
Russia. That obje& was to a certain degree accom-
plished by the signature of the Treaty by. M. D'Ou-
'BRIL, and would have been more so if that Treaty
had been ratified ; but defeated in this part of his
plan, it is by no means improbable that he will now
be desirous to conclude a Peace with this Country.
Mr. PARSONS, the Messenger, was sent off yesterday
afternoon with Dispatches to Lord LAUDERDALE.
. The intelligence from Italy in the French and
Dutch. Papers gives a most deplorable account of the
state ofjhe greater part of the Kingdom of Naples.
The Insurgents, as they are called, are represented,
as having treated with the utmost cruelty, not only
the French who fell into their bands, but such of
their own Countrymen as had shewn any dispo-
Sition to support the new King. On the other hand,
the progress of General MASSENA bat been marked
with slaughter and devastation. , All the prisoners
have undergone a " military judgment," that is to
say, shot without mercy; and the French Papers
boast that Generals MASSENA, REGNIERA and VER•
DM, had in this manner " purged the country of.
Rebels," wherever they appeared.
It is rather insinuated than stated in the French
Papers, that the English had re-embarked for Si-
but it is probable that the event took place
about the middle of July, for General SitraßT states,
in his Official Letter, dated 6th July, that he was then.
beginning his march to the southward, for the purpose
of re-embarking for Sicily. -

We are happy to find that the intelligence which
we received some tine ago respeaing the adjust•
merit of the dirrerences between the iavos of Sw.E.
DEN and PRUSSIA is confirmed. The danger Which,
threatens both of their, from the gigantic power
and restless ambition of France, has convinced them
of the policy of uniting their forces against the Corn.
mon Enemy, rather than wasting them against each
other. The KING of SWEDEN has issued orders fur
discontinuing the Blockade of the Prussian Ports,
and it is generally believed that His Prussian Ma-
jesty has issued orders for Evacuating that part of the
Dutchy of Lauenberg of which his Troops had take“
possession.

Ttp2 fad of the French having taken possession of
Ernbden seems now confirmed beyond a doubt.

WE yesterday stated that JEROME BONAPARTE had
had the good fortune to escape all our Cruizers, and
to reach a French Port. Our Plymouth Letter, we are
sorry to say, fully confirms that statement. The Vete-
ran, JEROME'S Ship, was chased for 48 hours by the
Gibraltar, Capt. Luxix, and the latter had gained so
far upon her, that the fotiner began to fire her stern-
chasers, a shot from one of which unfortunately carried
away the fore-top-mast of the Gibraltar, and of course
compelled Capt. LUKIN to give up the pursuit. If
this unfortunate accident had not happened, he wOilld
had been alongside the Veteran in half an hour.--!
The Veteran got into L'Orient.

THE gallant. Vietory achieved by our Country-
men in Calabria, is amply detailed in a Gazette
Extraordinary of to-day, which will be found in.
another part of this Paper. General STUART, with
the laudable pride of patriotism, justly .observes,
that " the rivail Nations" of Great Britain and
France might be said to have a fair trial on this oc-
casion, and that " the superiority was greatly and-
gloriously decided to be our own."—The number
on both sides were indeed such as afforded the
Enemy an advantage, but an advantage that gives
added lustre to our succ.:is. The confirmation of
this vistory being announced by the discharge of
the Park and Tower Guns, occasioned a strong
emotion in the Public ; and it was confidently
rumoured that the Preliminary Treaty between
Great Britain and France had arrived. It is with
much pleasure that we find the loss on our side
was so small considering the severity of the conflid.
