FiI.ENCI-1 I'APERS.

In the Trench Papers to the 9th instant, from
*-hich we extracted so much ;iin.portant 'matter, in
pur last, .we find a pretended " Reply ofa German'
to the' Proclamation of the Russian General,
clay de-Tolli.
This factitious document 'begins with obs.erv...
Ing—" If. you address yourselves to the Austrians,
:•e tell you.. that Austria makes war upon Russia,
Ileause -Russia made war upon us in 1.809--he-
cause it is of vitalititerest to Austrli;, that 11101-.
davia-or Wallachia should -not be united to her
already oyergrown .emphic, and with a view of
Placing a rein upon its. insatiable ambition ; and
as "the re-establiShment of the Polish kingdom is
imminent, the- great lotseS which Austria has ex-
periencedin consequence of the wars, instigated
by Russia at former periods,, renders it the more
necessary for her to retain.those territories; which
to her." On this principle, and in this
style of argumentation . (such as it is), the, &cm-
Indntigoes on to animadvert upon the •ccindwet of
the Russian Government •since the days of the
xlemorable Catherine ; and; as may be expected;
insists upon the superior policy of an identifiCa-
tion of the AuStrian interests with those of
France, as productiye of an inevitable increase of
territory and national bOnour-; without the. usual
belligerent sacrifices of life or money in the acqui-
'

In the same strain, the Speaker is nr.de to 4d-
dress the ltussian Government on behalf of the
Saxon,•the liavari^n; the Westphalian, and minor
German:interests ; and similar conclusions. are.
insisted upon as to the superior F:lity, and'
citous results:int, uniting the Germanic interests
and objects with those of France; and finally ob-
serves, that this proclamation involves an addi-
tional source of gratitude to Heaveu,, for the sub-
lunary omnipotence of the Protector of Germany,
and the Assertor of its unalienable rights ; , and..
concludes with denunciatiOns sgainst all those
'who uphold an opposing system or line of conduct.

Prom Hamborgh we !Earn, that the people are
I"king forward with great anxiety to the expe-
dition from Sweden. Should it land a force in
Swedish Pomerania, it was the general belief that
the Germans would join them from all quarters.

PROPHECIES AGA IN ST 33t: °NAPA RTE.

We understand. froth private communications,
that the following passage from Isaiah, chap.
is secretly, but widely, circulated in France, and
applied to' Buonaparte. We (jo -hot of course-
mean to adopt the application explicitly, but we
insert it to slim- what the French think of their
Ruler.
" The.tord bath broken the staff of the'wicked
and the sceptre of the rulers.
"He who smote the people in wrath with a
continual stroke, he that ruleth the nations in an,
ger is persecuted, and none hindereth.'
The whole earth is at rest and is quiet, they
break, forth into singing.
Yea, the fir -trees rejoice at thee, and thy
cedars-of Lebanon, Saying, s:nce thqu art laid
down no feller is come up against us. Bell, from
beneath, is moved for thee to meet thee at thy
coming ; it stirreth up the dead for. thee, even all
the chief. ones of the earth it bath raised up from
their thrones all the .Kings of the nations.
"All they shall speak and *say unto' thee, art

"Thy pomp is broaght down to the grave, and

" For thou bast said in thine,heart, I will

That made the world as

House of his prisoners !
" All the Kings of the Nations, even all of

" But thou art cast out of thy grave like an

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM, STOCKHOLM, DATED

JULY 29;

" The troops assembled for some time.are nozs.
embarked, and will soon depart their native coast
for a grand and decisive enterprizie. Their desti-
nation is not Dantzic in the first instance,
.as
many have supposed ; nor must you expect to
see the Swedish col urs flying on the ramparts of
Colherg but the Prussian Eagle, treed from all
French contralti, will once snore nroclniii its
*own independence. All idea of conquest and ag-
grandizement has been disavowed ay tl;e, triple
alliance ; and it has been resolved upon br the
Crown Prince, that no selfish considerations shall
interfere with. the grand object of the allies. YOu
must not be surprised if the Russiaus let the
French quietly across the Dwina in some 'parts ;
it will be only to get them into' a more forward
position,. to give greater effect to the grand opera-
tions in their rear. The Grand Rnssian Army is
now within two days march of their old frontier
in 1770, and the country at every step become's
more intricate ; on the right, alternately forests
and morasses, while the left stretches to the shores
of the Gulpb of Finland. -The intended. opera-
tions of oar army are not to be considered as mere
diversions, but as. a series of distinct operations,
forming a new theatre of war, a •new scene Of
sanguinary operations, as the first Swedish army
is to consist of 15,000 men, which will be inline-
diately followed by the Crown Prince, at the head
of 25,000 more. Count R---.,, who enjoys the
-confidence of our Prince, is to 'Comthand •the

EX-PARTE EMERY IN' THE MAT OF EMERY'.

This was an application on the part of the
Th.:;kriTt to have his commiseion enperseded, on
the e:round that be had never been a trader with-
in the, meaniag.Of the'rutit
Sir,!SAlNzuzi.. Rom-ILL-4, in support of the Corn-
mission, cited as 'variety of instanees in which
the. bankrupt,. who w s a publican, had sold
:casks of porter, and gallons of gin, out of the
house&-tfle. same being sold in larger quantities
than a person could-have thought of purchasing,for consumption in 'the house of the bankrupt,
at one time.

Mr: HART, for the Bankrupt, and in support of
the appli:ation,for sepersetlin,,s- tiie Commission,
read the afikiavit of the petitioner; :n which he
stated; that the.furaishings, in larger. quantities
than •could be consumed by any person, at, a time,
Were. all -Made to one person; who was a miller,
aid were so, furnished to him during pond fishing,
to he sold out in small quantities .to a number of
persons there assembled, in the same manner as
was' usually done "at
gicket-matches and races.—
The acts of trading sworn to, it was also shewn,
had taken place two years previous to the contrac-
tion-of the debt due to the petitioning creditor.
The,Loßn CHANCELLOR observed, that this
was a very small matter on which to ground a
Commission of Bankrupt. His L9tdship thought
the acts of trading relied on were not sulaient.
He ordered, therefore, that the CommisSion
should be superseded with costs the Bankrupt
undertaking not to bring an action on the bond.

the- road that they were then passi:.,g—but shortly
after, on advancing some distance,theyarrived
at a hog; where the country Ivas open, when a
tienienchins fire opened upon them—a- ball from
one of the shots knodied off a soldier's Cap, when
he cried out that the party pursuing them were
firili;:; ball cartriage—then, after that, -a great
many %1-ore fired, and up
_to that time their
tiring was not retnrnecl by the army—'-anOther f
the shots took effect on another of the soldiers—
he was hit-in the side by a spent ball. When the
firing was coming so warm, Lieutenant Gavitt
ordered his men to load, which they accordingly
did, hut there had been a great deal of rain and
the soldiers firelocks were wet—about five or six
only of the party's firelocks went off—they (the
aoldiers) thdn halted at the edge of the bog, and
ever; man sndeavonred to put his firelock in or-
der, but they were so damaged by the wet, that
their exertions were used in vain—the party then
thought it prudent to retreat—the persons attack,
ing followed. them they came near to
Lendrum's house, and they then fired again on
them there, but they fortunately escaped, al
though the persons pursuing continued to fire on
them (the witness and the military) for three
rh'ilei"*„ till we came near the .town called B;1111-
-naniallard—he did not know any on of those
that flied at him—the 'nearest distance from the
place they fired, t.) the Military, was about 130
yards.

liam GOrral, wai one of the party that were out

Lieut. Gavitt examined by Mr.. Stokes.
Witness said ihe was an officer of the 'Royal
Cornwall: Militia—he went out with a party of
the soldiers of his regiment to the townland.of
Roseore, on the 6th of October last. The Reve-
nite Officers whom he accompanied made a sei-
zure there—in 'some time after his party was at-
tacked—when.they had proceeded about a quarter
of a mile,: .a party of armed men tired on his
party—:two of his party Were hit by. shots fired by
• the
.other panty-,,-!one.of the soldiers had his cap
knocked otf, and another of them was hit on the
saw‘ the arms of the party that fired on
the soldiers—they were- bright, and. appeared in
good order.

John Kill&a examined.

Witness recollected the day the seizure was
made at lioscore by Mr. Brett—at about the hour
of ten or twelve o'clock in the morning, he was
standing on a hill—he saw the military party go-
ing along the road with a still—he heard several.
shots fired—he knew a man of the name of Don-
nelly—[identified the priffoncr Donnelly]—he
saw the pri.lo- ner there on that day—he was look-
ing at the firing from both-sides, and be saw the
prisoner Donnelly and another, man, coming
from that directiOn from whence the shots
were fired—they passed by him, very near him
—and the man who was with Donnelly stopped,
loaded his fircl6ck, and fired at the militairparty
,---the prisoner Donnelly had a fireleiek in his hand
—the firelock he thought ,was a bright one, for it
was (he thought) his (witness's) own—the man
who was ,with Donnelly had told him so—When
Witness had left his house his firel6ck had not
then been loaded; but he knew, when he had seen
it after, that it had positively been fired—the
main-spring of the lack was broke—he ran very
f(.l_,t-to the house where Captain Lendrurn lived.

Qm;stion by the COurt-LWas Mr. Lendrum's
house in ,the_ direction which Mr. Brett's party,
had taken ?—A. It was rather off from Mr.
Alrett's party.—Witness sw.v,the prisoner Don-
afterwards, coming running past, with a, gun
in his hand—he was making signals, and moving
his hat to the pally to come on—he was return-
ing from towards Mr. Lendrum's house—he was
there before the party-,-his own party was behind,
but he did not know that 'Mr. Brett was before
him. He knew the prisoner M'Colgan, but did
'not see him on that day.
Qaestitin by the Court.—After the prisoner.
Donnelly had made the signals, what did he do
,then ?—A: kcan't went with his party—
when Mr. .Brett's party were passing Mr. Len-
drum's house, he-heard shots tired after them—
he afterwards saw Thinnelly on board a ship near
Londonderry—he was lid, and dressed in, a mean
appeklrance--there were examinations lodged
azailist him before Lo-rd,Belmore.
' .Question by theCourt.—Wliat do you mean by
„saying that the prisoner was hid in the ship
A. My Lord, if 1 had not come forward, he would
not have been found at ail—he was concealed in
the ship, which was
_then under .weigh for
America.
