LONDON, OCTOBER 3, 1801.

WE, had yesterday the satisfaAion of congratu-
lating our Readers upon the happy event of the
signing the PItELIMINARIES of PEACE. with the
French Repu3lic; and we were enabled at the same
time to present them with a kind of outline of the
Terms of the Treaty—an important piece of in-
formation' which THIS PAPER ONLY contained. It
is against established usage for the Articles of a
Peace..to be cfficially published till the Ratification
shall have taken place; but we have the satisfalion
of being able to state, from good information, the
substance of the most material Conditions, which
.we think must generally be considered as -honour_
t.
able to this Country... .
• ,

GREAT BRITAINRETAINS TH t ISLANDS-
OF CEYLON IN. THE EAST, AND TRINI-
DAD IN THE", WEST INDIES ; restoring all
the other French, Spanish, and Dutch Possessions,
but with the Stipulation that

THE CAPE oF GOOD HOPE Is To REMAIN
A FREE PORT.

MALTA IS TO BE INDEPENDENT BOTH OF
GR.EAT•BRITAIN, AND FRANCE, AND TO BE RE-
STORED TO THE ORDER OF ST. JOHN OF JERUSA-
LEM, UNDER THE PROTECTION OF A THIRD
'
PowEg, TO BE AGREED UPDX.

EGYPT IS TO BE RESTORED TO THE PO RTE,
WHOSE DOMINIONS, AS WELL AS VIOSE OF
NAPLES, AND PORTUGAL, WITH SOME IN-
CONSIDERABLE EXCEPTIONS, ARE GUARAN-
TEED IN THEIR FULL INTEGRITY, As
'THEY STOOD BEFORE THE WAR.

NAPLES AND ROME ARE TO BE EVACUATED
BY THE FRENCH, AND PORTO FERRAJO BY THE
ENGLISH T Ruops. •

The bare recital of theSe Terms, is, we think,
sufficient to afford abundant Tatter of Congratulation
to the Public, .and of Gratitude, and Applause, to
the Government. At the close of a long and ardu,
ous Contest, in which a powerful and desperate Enc.=
my direCted its Attack against our Independence,
and Existence as a Nation, and which has lcd
to the Subversion, or Humiliation of so many
of the States of Europe, to have resisted success-
fully their gigantic efforts, and to have main-
tained all our Dominions untouched in the
midsCof general calamity, would be to have ob-
tained the principal objet} for which we engaged
in the War. But our gratification does not stop
here ; 'we have not only maintained, but heighten-,
ed the National Charaaer, and have carried
the Naval and Military Glory of the Country.
to its highest pitch. We have proved by our
efforts, that its KeSocores and Spirit exceed
all former calculation, and have raised in propor-
tion its credit and consideration in Europe. And
we have seen the War terminate with a series of
signal, and almost unparalleled Successes in differ-
ent quarters of the Globe. We have rescued from
the hands of the Enemy, those Possessions con-
quered from our Allies; which had the most imme-
diate cOnneaion with our essential interests, Our
distant Dominions, which we bring entire out of
the Contest, have in the course of it, increased
in Wealth and Prosperity beyond the most brilliant
periods of Peace ; and of our numerous and extensive
Conquests, we have judiciously retained two solid
and vhluable Acquisitions ; important indeed in
themselves, but Much more so, as being the Corn-
minding Naval Stations in the Eastern and
WeStern World, and thereby affording additional
Security and Proteetion to the great and, in-
cream°. sources of our Wealth and Cominerce.-77:
By consenting to restore: all the other Posse..
sions which we had gait 4 in the War, we have

--ronsvvy s• AuP
iig,smdisernent, 'Put Security, for what we Al-
ready pOSSeS6o and that our Moderation is equal to
our Firmness,
.But above all, in return for those
Concessions, we have not only secured honourable
Peace to ourselves, but have extended the Benefit
of our Successes to Allies who had ndthing to hope
but from our support. We have thus raised a last-
ing and glorious Monument of the Disinterested-
ness, good Faith, and Generosity of Great Britaiu,
and have taught an useful lesson to the other Powers
of Europe, by skewing the Contrast between the
Situation of those, who vainly sought their separate
Safety in premature and abjea Submission, and
those who had the Courage and Steadiness to persist
in a faithful adherence to their Engagements to this
Country, and who now find, by the Event, that
we want neither the inclination nor the Power to
afford them effelual Proteaion.

The above intelligence, as might be expelled,
threw the whole City into a tumult of exultation.
Such had been the laudable sccrecy'of Government,
that very little expectation prevailed of so sudden
and so, happy an issue to the Negotiation p the
effect, therefore, upon the mind of the Public was
proportionately great.----It amounted to a delirium
of joy which we doubt not will increase as the
happy event is more generally known and con-
sidered. The bells of the City rung merry peals
the whole day, and every countenance was enlighten-
ed with the smile of Satisfaction.

WE had yesterday the pleasure to state the arrival
of a Messenger from Lord Et.o trz at Constantinople,
the bearer of Dispatches announcing an event.which,
if the Country were less agitated by the important
Intelligence respeding, Peace, would be deemed
of most considerable moment. This is nothing
less than that General MENOU HAD AGREED
TO A CAPITULATION FOR THE SURRENDER OF
ALEXANDRIA. On the 17th 'of August General
HUTOirNsoN invested that Fortress with the large
force which was under . his command. The co_
operation of Sir SIDNEY SMITH'S naval force as-
sisted him materially by the destruetion of the French.
Gun-boats and some Batteries between Lake Mareoiis
and the shore, which tool: place on the zest of Au-
gust. After the accomplishment of this, General
MENOU sent a Fkg of Truce on the 27th of Au-
gust, to demand an Armistice for three days, which
was granted him. The French General, finding all
means of defenCe destrm'ed, acceded to the Capitu_
latic)n concluded by General BELLLARD. Such are
nearly the details of the fortunate conclusion of our
Expedition to Egypt, of which, by a singular coin-
cidence, the accounts reached us on the same day as
.the termination of the War. It seems natural to
suppose that the Surrender of Alexandria must have
beeh known, to the Chief Consul before it could have
arrived in this Country.

WE this morning received Par;s Papers to the
Ist inst. They are of little importance. The
Public of Fars, though no notification could have
of course been made to• them of the event which
took place on 'Thursday here, appear to have be_
come sensible of the approach of Poace, and the
French Ftinds, we find, had risen to szl.
We extraa the following articles from the series
of Papers :

" Scarcely (says the itionite'ur) had the ancient
Bishops resident in France been made acquainted
with the dispositions of the Pope's Brief of the 15th
of August last, before they hastened to obey it. The
Bishop of MARSEILLES, it man of 92 years of age,
wrote on the 2/St to the Archbishop of CORINTH,
as follows '' I receive with satisfaaion and filial
submission, the letter you have addressed to me on
the part of our Holy Father the Poet. Full of ve-
neration and of obedience for his Decrees, and desir-
ous of being perpetually united, to him in heart and
mind, I do not hesitate to transmit into your hands
my resignation of the Bishopric of Marseilles. It is
enough that he deems it necessary for the preserva-
tion of Religion in France, for me to resign it."

The Bishop of SENLIS writes on the same day as
follows : " Firm attachment to Religion, and to
preserve the Unity of the Catholic Faith, to secure
the advantage and the welfare of the Faithful, and
to second the paternal invitations of His Holiness,
I voluntarily and readily abandon the Episcopal
Sec of Senlis, and depose my resignation in the
hands of His Holiness."

The Bishop of ST. CLOUD has already made the
same declaration : " I respea too much the orders
of His Holiness (says he in his Letter of the Ist of
of August), not to conform to them. No sacrifice
will cost me dear, when the reestablishment of
Religion, and of the glory of its divine Author,
shall be in agitation."

The Bishop of ST. PAPOUL, in his Letter of re-
signation, says—" I resign, that nothing nay op-
pose yo2r futufe union : happy to Ile able at this

to the prosperity of Frenchmen."

i

- - -
I consider myself as happy (said the Bishop of ,
ALAts), in being able to assist, by my resignation,
the wise, benevolent, and conciliatory views of His
Holiness. I pray to God to bless his pious inten_
tions, and to spare him all the affiidions which may
affed his paternal heart."
The resignations of the Bishops of S-r. MALO and
of ANct zts, .arcin the -same spirit, and these sen-
timents perfe&ly accord with :hose expressed by the
thirty EishopS who were Members of the Con-
stituent Assembly on the 31 of May, 1791.
" We transmit you our resignations (say they to the
Sovereign Pontiff), in order that nothing may be j
wanting to assist your Holiness in re-establishing I
the peace of the Gallican Church."—They add af-
terwards, "we have hitherto had the advantage of
obtaining the unanimous suffrages of :our Colleagues,
and we do not, when OfFering an exposition of our
principles for the removal of all difficulties, do it
in the fear of any opposition from men of their
noble and generous dispositions."
BoußDE4ox, SEPT. 27.--INe have received in-
telligenoe here, through the medium of American
Papers,, which is very irnrrobable. It relates to a
Constitution pretended to be proclaimed for the
Colony of St. Domingo, by ToussAt NT LOI;,V
TORE. It bears such marks of improbability, that
we do not think it necessary to insert any Extraas.

lLvrlsaoN, SFr r. 1 2.--The cc:wings which sub-
sists bet ween the Ministers of Cologne and of Prussia,
cn account of the Protest, assumes every day a
more decisive charataer. It is, however, the only
consequence of the violent scene which took place
at their first interview. The Diet is to assemble
to-morrow, to deliberate On the last Note of the
Republican Chars-i-des.A.nraires. It is thought the
Vote of Austria, with respe& to the mode of settling
the Indemnities by a Commission, will have the
preponderance.

On Thursday THEIR MAJESTIES, PRINCE ADOL-•
PHUS, the PRINCESSES AUGUSTA, ELIZABETH,
MARY, SOPII lA, and AMELIA, with the Earl and
Countess of AIL ESBU RY, -Lord WA LSINGHAM, the
Hon. Col. Ft Tz o Col.. CARTWRIGHT, Major
DEsa °micro H, Lady C. DURHAM, Lady M. WIN-
YARD, and Lady BELLASYSE, arrived at the Star
and Garter Inn in Andover to dinner, at half past five.
The ROYAL FAMILY were received by a detach
ment of the First Regiment of Dragoons, and the An-
dover Volunteers, under arms; and the'acclamations
of a great concourse of people of the town and neigh-
hourhood welcomed the arrival of their beloved So-
vereign and his Royal Consort and Family. The
ringing of bells, a general and brilliant
don in the evening, and other loyal demonstra-
tions of joy, testified the great gratification the
Inhabitants felt from the Royal Visit to their
Town. .

On Friday morning, between eight and nine, the
Bailiff' and Corporation had the honour of attend-
ing firs MAJESTY with a dutiful and loyal Address
on the occasion, which was most graciously receiv-
ed by HIS MAJESTT from the hands of the BailifF.

About ten the Royal Party set off, in high
health and spirits, for Windsor, apparently well
pleased with the instances of loyalty and zealous
attachment evinced towards them by all ranks of
persons, and highly satisfied with the very comfort
able accommodations provided for them at the Star
and Garter Inn.

THEIR MAJESTIES and Suite yesterday returnee
to Windsor.

On arriving at the town they, were received by,
the Loyal Windsor Association, and the Stafford-.
shire Militia. His Royal Highness the PRINCE Of
WALES, and DUKES Of KENT and CUMBERLAND
(with parr of his Regiment), proceeded with them
to the Lodge. .The Windsor Cavalry and P
Lion were also drawn out, and a great number 01-
spetlat-Ors were assembled, who greeted them with
loyal respea. The bells were rung on the occasion-
Jo the evening the town was illuminated. "
The Etrl and Countess of CARDIGAN, Lord and
Laly CATHcART, Lady CAROLINE VVALDEORAVF7
aNiissMAJESTIES atWindsor.GoLD'woßTHY, are attending on THEIR.

The Staffordshire Militia, and two Troops of thc-,
Toth Light Dragoons, have marched into the new
Barracks, ereded at Spittle, near Windsor ; the
horse and foot doinpluty there amount to J 300 Men'
The PRINCE of WALES, we are happy to say,
has returned, on Thursday,. to Carleton House, 0
a state of convalescence, nearly approachin3 to
perfect recovery. Every unpleasant consequence
of his late accident icas, we understand, totally
ceased.
Stocks had risen to-day One per Cent.—Conso''s
were at noon 671.
A very general illumination took place last night,
in consequence of the signing of the Preliminaries
of Peace.
An additional party of the Life Guards were or-
dered yesterday into Town, in case of any riotous
proceedings from the lower orders of the People, re)
compel the inhabitants to illuminate.
Lord NELSON sailed on Thursday from the
Downs. A dispatch was sent off yesterday fr°,..file
the Admiralty to acquaint his Lordship with the
signing of Preliminaries. Hostilities are of course
suspended.
• Yesterday a Court of Direaors was .held at the
East India-House, when the following Extra SihiP
were taken up for six Voyages :

arrived here, with Dispatches for the French Go-
vernment,' w ith which he sailed immediately in a
Flag of Tract: to Calais.
