SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, isog.

This morning, two Heligoland Mails arrived, and
a number of German Papers have been received.
The intelligence they contain is of importance. It
appears to be the general opinion in almost every
prt of the Continent, that hostilities will speedily
recommence between Austria and France. A Let-
ter from Vienna, of the date of the 2d of Septem-
ber, contains the following expressions. . " Our
hcpes of peace decline. The French head-quar-
ters have been removed from Schoenbrunn to
Presburg and the French army is' colleaed, pre-
pared for anion on the line of the Armistice." Dur-
ing the Armistice the Austrian army has changed its
I.osition, and we think very much for the better.—
Our readers will recolle&, that after. the battle of
Wagratn, the Austrian army was forced back to
Bohemia, and that it was, in fa&, almost cut off
from Hungary. The Austrians have, however, now
quitted Bohemia, and have taken a position upon
tie 1001, leaning uoon the strong fortress of Co-
morn, This position covers almost , the whole of
Hungary, and will enable the Austrians to draw
supplies of men and provisions from that loyal and
fertile country.
Many of the Continental politicians speculate con-
fidently upon the defection of Russia from the cause
of France. We know not however upon what au-
thority these speculat ions are founded, and the recent
condu& of the Emperor ALEXANDER, forbids us to
entertain any sanguine expeCtations that he will
now adopt a policy more consistent with his own
.honour and the interests of his Empire It is, how-
ever, positively stated, that a stria alliance has been
formed between Russia and Prussia.
These Papers are perfeetly si:ent upon the subjea
of BUONAPARTE'S indisposition. The brave Tyro-
.lese still continue to defend themselves, and we are

happy to say, with complete success.

A report-has been for some days in circulation,
thrit BUONAPARTg is seriously indisposed; but ru-
mours of that kind have been so frequently invented

to answer particular purposes, that we were not
much inclined to give .it credit. The intelligence,
however, comes from so many quarters, and is so
confidently repeated, that we begin to think it must
have some foundation. We know that several per-
sons have arrived at Guernsey from Cherburgh, who
all concur in stating that it was generally reported
at Paris that.BuoNArARTE was dangerously ill, and
that several eminent medical men had been sent for
from Paris to attend him. His disorder is said to be
a br'ain-fever, brought on by excessive fatigue. It
is, however, very possible that his danger may have
been very much exaggerated.

It has been insinuated in a Morning Paper, that
Lord MELVILLE is not well disposed towards the
New Government. The best answer to this, is the
WEI of the appointment of Mr. KOsEwr DUNDAS a 5
Secretary of State.
we take this opportunity of cautioning our
readers against all the reports which are in cir-
culation respeaing the sentiments and intentions of
the 11_,Irquis \VELLESLEY. Nothing can positively
be known, as Ministerial politics have taken their
present turn since his Lordship left England.
