FRENCH AND DUTCH PAPERS.

MkDRID, JUNE 13.—Our Sovereign, far from
imitaiing his predecessors,' who, on their accession
to the throne, thought themselves dispensed from
obligation to provide for a debt, which they
found too great, and considered, in some measure,
as not theirs, because it existed before their reign ;
has j:lst applied a remedy to -this ancient wound of
the St.ie, --by a measure wise, vast, and worthy of
thl. goodness which characterises hi., heart ;—his
loyal!y repelling all ideas of bankruptcy, which un-
der former reiuns bad reduced so many- families to
beggary. - He has, by a decree of the gth instant,
recognised all the debts of the State, in order to ap-
ply to their extinaion etfeEts which have'been long
lost to society. The royal vales shall possess their
full nornioal value, and shall be received as specie
.for the purchase of national property. Thus all
Jobbing will be checked, and confidence strengthen-,
ed in the, new Government. This tnessure alone
would suffice to immortalize the name of our
Monarch, and assure the prosperity' of the Spanish
nation.

A Decree was also published on the 9th, contain-
ing a t!umber of formal provisions, respe&ing the
node of Yelling land; belonging to the State.
SAINT GALL, JUNE 16.—The insurgents of the
Tyrol and Voralberg have been prohibited entering
the territory of Switzerland, on pain of death.
CETTE, JUNE 20.—The English who, during
the iti,,nth of September in last year, made several
incursions upon the coast of the Gulph of Lyons,
and who endeavoured, on the t2th of the same
month, to set fire to the town of Cette by means of
rockets, though then driven off by the cannon of
the place and the rni!itary ardour of its inhabitants,
attempted again Oil the Bth instant to make a new
attack upon this town and port, 'against which one
of their frigates fired off some 16-pounders, and at
length a broadside. Their balls passed over the
town ; and as we, on our part, could reach the fri-
g,4te with-our 24-pounders, we believe that our ar-
tillery, which was well. served, has done the
frigate considerable damage, as it did not main-
tam the contest long, and has not dared to approach

138 RN, JUNE 16.—An insurreaion lately broke
out in the Pays de Yaud, to which the taxes and
the military conscriptions served as a pretence; but
it was qu....iled by the aid of 500 Fienchmen, .and
two discharges of tausqueiry. Many of the Can-
tons refused to take any share in the rebellion. Some
of he insurgents have been taken to Milan ; others
are confined at Sondrio, or have escaped. Quiet is
estored again.
10Eipito, JUNE 23.—Qar paper contains the fol-
low tag :—" Yesterday 4,14 a memorable day for
.the inhabitants of this place. After some slight
skirmishes between die Austrian and Brunswick
troops, and the Saxons, the latter retreated through
the town, when the Austrians, under the command
of his Excellency General Am Ende, and the Bruns-
wick troops, under the command of the Duke of
Brtny.wick Oels, entered, algid the unequivocal ma-
r. potations of the collected inhabitants," &c.

WARSAW, Juxa 12.—The Polish Council of
State returned hitter on the Bth, and were received
by the Public, IA ith great.demOnstrations of joy.
Sixty foreigners, of ditrerent_rank, have been
lately affected here. Their papers have been laid
before a Committee appointed to examine them.—
Not only in Warsaw, but also in other places in the
Duchy, which the enemy entered, there were in-
dividuals who conclUdeJ themselves traitorously.—
The Polish Government is now compelled to adopt
tne:isures of severity against those ungrateful persons
who take advantage of hospitality and beneficence.
Some of these foreigners have been imprisoned in
the fortress of Modiin, and delivered over to a Mi-
litary Tribunal ; others have been set at liberty with
an injunaion never to enter Poland again.
When the official intelligence reached us from St.
relef,,burgh, that the Russian army was about to
aet in co-operation with the French and Poles,
against the Austrians, the Archduke Ferdinand
ci,,sed a l'i•ociii:ation to be published in our Gazette
(April ‘<i9), orjci-, to cause that intelligence to be
Among other things it was said,
°'• Sown p,,rsons have left the metropolis for the re,
mote provinces, only to disquiet the peaceful citi-
zen, and induce him to take up arms, by falsely
staling that foreign troops are about to enter the

co,lut-ry,"

A la,,cree has pa,sed, removing all who are Prus-
sini subjects by birth, who have no right of citizen-
ship, troll; I;ablic offices.
STRALSUND, JUNE 15.-A Proclamation has been
puid shed here, oEring a reward for the delivering
up of papers belonging to Marshal Soult, which had
bad been seized by the partisanS of Schill. At the
same time threats are held forth against those who
should withhold these articles or any other property,
seized by the adherents of Sail!.
MILAN, JUNE 28.—The Senate assembled this
morning to hear the letter which had been written
by his Majesty the Emperor and King to the Presi-
det,t. It is as follows:
" MOYSIEUE, the President of the Senate of my
kingdom of Italy—l. approve of the sentiments con-
tained in the letter of the Senate of the 28th of
May. I know the attachment it bears to my person
and country. I desire that my people of Italy may
know the satisfaction have felt at their conduot
during the late occuences. They have repelled
with contempt and indignation the calumnious sog-
gestions'and appeals to sedition and revolt which
have been marle to them by, the Princes of that un-
grateful and perjured house, - whose leaden sceptre
has, during so many ages, oppressed our unhappy
Italy. Torn alternately by the faaions of the Court
of Rome, and those of the German Emperors, it
was long divided and subjugated. Providence has
reaerved to me the singular consolation to•behold it,
united under my laws, rise again' to the great and
liberal ideas which our ancestors, the first anaonz

the moderns, proclaimed after ages of barbarism.—
I am not less satisfied with the courage and bravery
displayed by my Italian troops. On the borders of
the Baltic, and on the banks of the Danube and the
Ebro, they have shewn they were of the blood of
the ancient Italians, &c.

‘.‘ From my Imperial Camp at Schoenbrunn June
16, 1809." _

This letter was interrupted by the fondest ap-
plauses. The Senate required it should be read a
second time ; and a Committee was appointed for
making the letter known to the inhabitants of the
kingdom.
• On the 27th, the Senate decreed, among other
things, that the sentiments expressed in the letter
of his Majesty, should be consecrated, by an in-
scription to be placed in the Senate, in order to pre-
serve the memory of the Emperor's magnanimity.
