Misery is here at its height ;411 the Sand-
krthle near the Star fort is full of poor creatures,
who have dug a sort of caverns in the. earth to
serve as habitations. We can hardly furnish the
multiplicity of requisitions imposed. On all shies

• nine month; ; but we are in absolute want Of
corn.. In a word, misery is at such a pitch, that
a revolt ist very day feared. -
VENICE, Nov. 6,---Thc bfockade of this city
has commenced. Without a powerful diversion
on the sea-side, it is likely to he isf long dura-
tion, for: we are.aliundantly supplied with provi-
sions. Uporyhe loan of two millions,.•as.a secu-
rity for which we are promised quicksilver and
lead, some of oar first commercial hOuses have
been obliged to advance, this day, 150,000 livres,
in Order to pay the troops, because otherwise dis-;
turbances might be feared. The greatest misfor.;
tune is, that all the public chests are empty, and
, thus, should the blockade be prolonged, our mer-
. -chants will be compelled to make still greater ad-
vances. The ship of the line llegenerateur has
been moored in the channel, to secure it from the
''. English, and also to keep the town in awe. The:
St. Bernard and Castiglione will also be more&
there. A great number of armed vessels al all
sizes are at anchor in different parts of the. la-
gimes. Their crews have been mostly taken from
the ships of the line. General Seras is our Go-
vernor.

FRANKFORT, Nov. 30.--We lately mentioned
that the reigning Prince of lsenburg, after leav-
ing the' service of France, and renouncing- its,
Confederation of the Rhine, had embraced tke
cause of Germany.—Thi, account requires correc-
tion. The Prince of ben burg, it is true, begged
to enter into the alliance of the High. Powers,
but no resolution has yet been adopted us to his
admission.

their appearance announces the approach of more
considerable corps.
