Since writing the above, we have received Dutch
Papers of the 14th and 19th, which still leave us
in doubt, upon the subject of Peace. The following
are the only Extra6ts we have time to make :--
AMSTERDAM, OCT. !D.—The intelligence of
peace having been signed between Austria and
France has now been confirmed. This information
arrived in Holland by the way of Ssutgard and Cas-
Sel. In both cities the public rejoicingsivhich took
place in consequence of these 'happy tidings have
been succeeded by general consternation and regret.
Every thing, however, seems to indicate that, on
the Continent, peace;will speedily be concluded, if
that fortunate event should not already have amually
taken place.—(Royal 4msterdant Courant, 00. 19.)

P4iltlS, OCT. 13.—The accounts from Vienna, of
the 7th inst. state, that the suburbs are 411 ed with
troops returning from the camps in the neighbour-
hood of Vienna, and in particular from those foimed
at Spitz and Azgersdorf.

We understand that the pens-d'arrnes who are
destined to escort his Imperial Majesty fr9n4. stage

to stage,have already set nut from Vienna for their
different stations.

His Excellency the Marshal Duke of Ragusa ar-
rived here last night.
The troops of the Duke of SAXONY, under the or-
ders of General ROUTER, who, for some time, have
formed part of the army of the Duke of DANTZIC,
'mite marched to Vienna, by Upper and Lower Atis-
otrlawaud are now in cantonments rin the vicinity of
_thas-'capital, thaificapital, His Majesty the EMPEROR reviewed
Ltbetrttfat Schoeubrunn.

.The Tyrolese are stated to be in the utmost want
of several articles. Their communication with the
Aeighbouring States being at present more strictly
Igercqpied than it has been before,' it is utterly int-
...possible for them to obtain any supplies of provisions,
eltPercbendize, 9r ammunition, especially since the
Regencies of the different Cantons
,have adopted
measures to shut up that passage.
ZARA, • S4FT. 4.—The Governor of Zara has re*
ceived.intelligence from the Major-General of the
Grand. Army, . that the Austrian troops have- heea
ordered to evacuate Dalmatia. The above
gence has been • communicated to the Commander
in Chief of the said troops. Should their troops not
have received orders of MC1136013, it is probably to
be ascribed to the same accident which has pre.,
vented several French Couriers, dispatched by the,
Emperor, from reaching the place of their destine*
tion, by having been arrested, notwithstanding the
Armistice, and despoiled of their dispatches.-.."
(Friesland Courant, of Oa- 13.)

There can be but one opinion and one sentiment,
atm' og wise and honest men on -the. celebration of
tlkday. A Monarch, who is disOnguished for ex,
/gfuftry piety, moral virtue, domestic affe6.lion, and,
aaeakins patriotism, now enters on the Fiftieth year.
of his reign, a reign that has been chequered by
events; but which has always been marked by tb°
incessant endeavours, of the Sovereign to support
fif6nour of: the country, and give happness to his
keUdine. He has proved himself the firm guardian of
'tliertOnstitution and the National Faith; he has IcaPc'
inviolable the sananary of justice, by giving intlepW
deuce to the-judicial body; he has been the enlightened
patron of }hose arts which do honour to the mina/
and mankind—he has alWays tempered justice with
ruercy,, and t hrough the whole of . hii long rei
proved his title to that best of huinan distinctions-'".

. The whole metropolis is busily occupied' in pre.
parations for the festivities of the day. The Bank
will certainly exhibit the most splendid illumination
that perhaps has ever been witnessed in this or any
other country. There is not a pillar or a niche is
that immense pile that will not display some brilliant
and loyal device. The Admiralty will also be splen-
didly illuminated. The Mansion-House, India-
: House, Post-:Office, and all the Public Companies,
have also made every preparation for a similar display
of loyalty and afleolion to his 114.1k.sty. The spetta-
de will be most magnificent' and impressive, and is
most of the principal streets of the-metropolis, the
illumination will be general.
The Bark of COVENTRY arrived on Saturday last
at Croome, in Worcestershire. He was received
by.a large concourse of honest villag rs, &c. with
the marmest acclamations. The rood was lined with
peOple from 'the neighbouring 'places, who took the
horses from- kis .carriage and drew him to his seat.
The bells were. rung and every testimony of joy dis-
