VIENNWSEPT. 28.—Yesterday her Majesty the
Empress of Russia arrived in this capital. Her
Majesty had passed the night at MoeDi: Her
Ma-
jesty the Empress of Austria went a 'certain dis-
tance to meet her. Th 6 Emperor_of Russia and
the Emperor- of AuStria set out a little later.- All
these great Personages having met at tLe Church
of Maria Bruno-, they were escorted to the Palace
by the'Noble Hungarian Guard and flat Pages of

ceived by the Courts of Austria and Russia, and
.conducted to- her apartments with the ceremonial

nours due to their rank. Their Highnesses the

PARIS,-OCT. B.—Letters fro.m Bourdeaux state,

that l 5 French vessels had sailed for Martinico
and Guadaloupe, laden with flour, provisions, and
other French productions.

The statue of Louis XI V. which used formerly
to •Orrtament the, front of the Invalids, is about

• The famous Vendean female warrior, L'Auge-
vin was admitted yesterday, under the auspices of
her former Conimanders, to present her Memoirs
to the King and Royal Family, who received them
with great bounty. These Memoirs,- which have
been published, display traits of fidelity, fortitude,
devotion, and courage, on the part of a woman,
unparalleled in history, even in that of Joan of
Arc. She fought both on foot and on horseback,
with sabres and with pistols, and always in the
adv-anced guard. •

In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, a
discussion of some length took place upon the law
respecting the Liberty of the Press. A consi-
derable diversity of opinion prevailed upon the
questions, whether. the Assembly had a right.to
discuss the whole subject again ; or whether they
were confined to the consideration of the Amend-7
rnents proposed by the Peers ; and whether the
Deputies had a right to propose other Amend-
ments ? It was determined that the-Assembly
should not discuss the whole suliject
The Athendment of the Peers, respecting the
omission of the Preamble, was agreed to.

On the sth Article of the law, M. Dumolard
proposed, as an amendment, the words " con-
trary to the Charter," instead of " inconsistent
with, but the.ainendment was not agreed to.

The other amendments of the Peers Were.then
-agreed to by a majwity of 172 to 14.
The Committee to which the Petitions of se-
several Booksellers had been referred, made its
report. The Petition complained that the Peti-
tioners had been arrested, thrown into dungeons,
end cut Off from all connexion with their fami-
Les, and prayed the Assembly to break their
chains, and set them at liberty.. The Report
vatted that they had sold'ari illegal pamphlet, il-
legal because it had:not the publisher's name, and
because it was an atrocious libel upon the First
Magistrate, and that the degree of confinement
used was only such as was necessary for safe cus-
tody. The Report further stated, that nothing
had been done illegally to these' Petitioners 3 and
the Petition was rejected by an immense
majo-
rity, only two or three Members supporting it.

Letters from Vienna state, that the Conferences
between the Plenipotentiai'ies are daily 'confirmed.

The Icing and Queen of Sweden are returned

to Stockholm.

Another Decree observes, that since- the•union
with France, the Flemish language has been al-
most entirely suppressed, the French alone being
admitted in the public Acts ; that though it is ne-
cessary to tolerate the Ft'ench when the Flemish

SCHAMIAUSEN; SEPT. 28.---SellWitZ and Lower
Underwaiden have not yet acceded to the new Fe-
deral Union, though the Diet has omitted no
means to induce them to it, and Uri and Upper
'Underwalden have positively refused to renew the
league of 1315.

The troubles in 'Tessin°, have again assumed a
serious appearance. M. Von Sonnerberg, Com-
mander of the troops of the Diet, who had at first
been forced to retire into the Castle of Altdorf,
and the valley of Misox, having received reinforce-
ments, was enabled tO act offensively, to reinstate
the Little Council, and fora moment restore
tranquillity. But new troubles soon broke out.
Near Lugano, where two companies were station-
ed, a skirmish is said to have taken place, in
which some were killed and wounded on .both
sides. The two companies were forced to retreat
over the lake to Mendriss ; the rebellious :pea-
sants designed to occupy Lugano, and then to pro-
ceed with their whole force to Bellinzona, so that
the Little Council way perhaps be forced to leave
tins place for the second time. On this news,
which is derived from verbal accounts; two mores

French Papers to the 10th reached us this
morning, and, with a few further Extracts from
,those of yesterday, occupy our preceding columns.
The August Assembly at Vienna receives flailiac-
cessions.' The Empress of RussiA, the Queen ni
BAVARLI, the Duke of BNUNSWICK, and many
other hizh personages are among those mentioned
in the lost .accounts from that Capital: altes and
rejoicings are incessant, and the business of thus
World is being settled in the midst of amusements
so gay and entertainments' so, splendid dot one
would think the sole occupation of life was pleasure.
The best understanding, however we rejoice to
say, appears to subsist upon all serious questions,
as well as upon matte's of mere pomp and pa-,
geantry;

It is mentioned that Bentheim is to be ceded to
Hanover. Bentbeim formed part of Westprialia,
between Munster and Overvssel, and is a long
slip
.of territory, about 40 miles in length, and
from 3 to 12 in breadth.

The Petition to the House of Deputies of the
Booksellers of Paris who have been incarcerated
for the publication of disloyal, mischief-stirring,
and seditious pamphlets, having been referred to
a Committee, and reported, the Chamber decided,
by a vast majority, that these persons having been
guilty of offences against the law, had no right
to Parliamentary interference to screen them from
the penalties they had thereby incurred. The
numbers on this division were the whole ChaM-
ber to two 'or three voices.

Some alterations in Italy are spoken of, among
which
,i.the cession of the country between the
Mincio and Piedmont by Austria to Tuscany is
the most prominent. ,

We have also Frankfort and Brussels Papers,
but their contents are unimportant.

The Gazelle, as we yegcrday mentioned it
would, contains only the uld accounts from Fort

Eric.
