The Second :and Third Consuls are, it is said
to have an assembly alternately every Thursday.
They speak of nothing from Brussels, Antrwerpoi.
Liege, and even from Cologne, but of the approach-
ing journey which the FIRST CONSUL is to make
immediately to those Cities. Several .foreigners have
in consequence' hired apartments in those Cities.
In a Council' of the Administration, which was
held yesterday, thle Minister of the Treasury gave
in an account of all expences of negotiations, dis-
' counts of bills' services, and transfers of money,
discharged out of the Treasury from the 23d of
September, 18ox, to the 23d of September, 1802,
the loth year of the existence of the French Re.
public.
The results which he presented were highly sa_
tisfatory; the total' expence upon those objets col-
le Lively not exceeding the sum of fifteen millions
of livres, or about 630,0001. sterling, which is
one-half less than was the same brancli of-the ex-
penditure for the year immediately preceding.—
. This account, with the several documents by which
it is authenticated,, will be communicated to the.
Legislative Body at its -first meeting, and after.:
'wards printed.
Among the paperS laid before the• Consuls by the
Minister of the Treasury, was a curious statement
of the daily ;expense of discounting the bills of
the Receivers General of the Revenue, commencing
from the end of the year. 8, (Sept. 23, i 800), com-
ing down to the end of the year iO, (Sept. 23,
1.8 oz).

Some few days before the battle of Marengo, the
discount of those bih was at 5 per cent. per month.
In the course of the year 9, it fell first to 2 per
cent per month, and then to -.1, per cent. pet month.
In the year to it varied from is-t 6: to. -3.4.ths
per month.-___
It is now fixed for the whole of the year i t at
One-half per cent. per month.
There is now no other Government in Europe
whose bilk are discounted at a rate so low.

The Paper of the Receivers-General before the
Revolution was then•equally discounted at one-half
per cent. per month.
In a Council of Administration, which .is to be
held next -Saturday, the Ministers of Finance, and
the Public Treaitity, will present the general ac-
count of the receipts andexpenditure of, the Repub-
lic during the year to. Each Minister will trans.
mit, .at 'the same time, a particular account of the
expences of -his-department. In the same Connell
the Budget will be drawn up, and presented to the,
Legislative Body for the service of :he year tt. •
The Caisse d'Amortissement is cancelling in the•
great book, the 5 per cent. Consols, which it has
boubht. The state of its operations will he joined
to the general account of finances, which will be,
presented to. the. Legislative Body. It will..afFotd_
results of a nature to satisfy all persons interested in
the prosperity of the Republic.
RATISBON, DEC. t,—The important. Note
which the Imperial Plenipotentiary M. de HUGEL
presented to the Didature of the Diet, has been
published. One pas Sage of this Note has .produced
a great sensation ; it relates to the Indemnities of
th-, GR A'wro nine' c• of a.na yS corkeivcd
in these words

" Bound by its duty towards the- Empire, and by
its full powers, the Deputation is authorized to exe-
cute the dispositions of the Treaty of. Lunevilli,
but it has no right to contribute to the imperfect
execution: of a cleat, express, and precise stipulation,
without the ethisent" of the parties interested."

The General Diet of the Empire assembled yester_.
day, when it was resolved that the deliberation on:
the general Conclusum transmitted directly to the
Diet by the Ministers of the Mediating Powers,
sihAild be opened in the first Sitting after the Christ-
mas Recess.

The Deputation did not sit the day before yester,
day : the followingis the result of the deliberation..
which took:place-on-the 7th instant..
" Saxony'demands that whilst the ratification of
the general Cone/as-um is deliberated upon, the De..
putation shall.octstmy itself with the rent assigned,
to the Eleeforiof Treves, and the support of-the.
Clergy of the fourth and fifth class. As.to- any
thing further, the Sub-Delegate refers to his pre.
ceding votes, and thinks that the Deputation, ought
not to take the charge.of making innovations in
the Constitution of the Empire .and- the-Circles ; fie
declares besides, that his Court Teerves t 6 itself
expressly, its right over the Imperial fiefs of
Hannau Lichtenberg, situate on the right hank of
the Rhine, and also the city of Erfurt amt its ter-
ritory, and generally all the rights of the House:of
Saxony, as to any ohjed of- the Indemnities. AS
to die clauses demanded by Bohemia, he thinks that
the transmission of the general anclusum to the
Diet is an obstacle to what is wished to be in-
serted.''

" The Grand Master of the Teutonic Order joins
in the vote given by Bohemia, in the last Sitting,
and demands expressly the insertion, in the Conc/u-
-sum, of the Clause relative to the GRAND DUKE of
TUSCANY ; he is convinced of the necessity of ad.
milting into the College of Electors, and that of
Princes, new Catholic Slates, and regards as highly
suitable the conferring of the Eleetoral Dignity on
the Grand Dnke ; he also thanks Bohemia for the
proposal of attaching in perpetuity that dignity to
the Grand Mastership of the Teutonic Order."
" Majeure again thanks the Ministers of the
Mediating Powers, for the continuation of their
cares, as to the objeCts to which the Imperial
Plenipotentiary has called the attention of the De-
putation, and particularly the Indemnities and the
Maintenance of the Clergy, which remain to be
determined upon. These objects have already been
recognized by the Deputation, which can do nothing
more without thc Ministers of the Mediating Powers,
from whom it
.way for instructions, which will be
given before the.opoing of the deliberations of the

• VIENNA, .DEC. &-----The dispatches which tir
'Russian Ambassador M. DE RASUNIOWSKY'has
ceived from his Sovereign, relate to the Incle:nnitiesr'
of the Grand Duke of
.TuscArtY, and have proms.

sensation. The Prince DE ESTESRAZY Wily Pr°'
coed to Pezl;l to terminate the Negotiations so long
pending .respeaing that important business. The
Prince sets out on the loth, but his feared that the
-vian suggested by Russia will not_ be .praaicable in
the present state of affairs. . -

Our Court is occupied at present with several
alliances besides. that with Russia, to which it 26.
taches the greatest importance. It appears to
'.to unite itself to one of the Courts in the No(l''
of Germany, which enjoys a great credit., not 0
much on account of its power, as the wisilom of its
Sovereign. - This Court is that of Saxony ; at'u
much is said of the marriage of the Eletioral NO'
, cess of. SAXONY with the Archduke FEttorNANDf.
ci.devant Grand Duke of TUSCANY, Who Will cele-
bratehis second gurriage when he tics- taken poS.-..
session of the Indemnities which he expets, and
particulafly of the title of EleCtor, which he hope!.
will be sectired to hiin by-the new. Constitution of'
the Empire. . .
We now • know with certainty that Josurfi
.BO NAP ART was to have come hither to treg
resptCting the Indemnities of. the GRAND DUKE,
but the French Cburier, who arrived on the 201
of November, brought di4latches which rendered.'
that mission useless.

DECEMBER 23.
Two English Travellers lately presented -then,
selves before the Mayor of Orleans. One of them:

was in liquor,. and conduced himself in a most
decent. manner, and was guilty of such excesses, that
the Lieutenant of the Gendarmerie was under the
necessity-of-arresting- him- The person arrested
immediately complained to Lord \\TH ITWORIH., who,'
concerned at the miscondLia of the Englishman, and,
struck with the moderate proceedings of the Prefect,
wrote to that Magistrate a most- polite Letter, in.
which he requests him (notwithstanding the dissa-'
tisfaCtion he might feel upon this occasion) to eort
tinue to treat his Countrymen with that politenes,
Which is Peculiar to him. This. contlud of tl#'
Ambassador is certainly very different from that'
of the Member of Parliament who wished t°
have the Prefet of. the Police :It Paris brought to
the- Bar of the House of Commons, because. 11°
arrested Captain .130'AuvsRorgt. The inquiri:
which it was prOposed to make upon this subjea,
is only worthy of the little theatres on the 800104
yards:

STv-roAtto„ DEC. I2.—The celebrated Mr'
MooRE presented :himself at the Court of the DUO
of Wva.-rEma€Korl, who received him very ill, auct
caused him to be. informed, that he (the Duke)
disposed to unite himself with France to
the Peace of the Continertt, and to- supporeibe
•• . •
rations of the Diet at Ratisbon. „r;
• Mr. .Moott e, therefore, has fiot been more stica
cessful here `than he-Was at Vienna, where the Court
wouldnorreceive him. -It is not probable that he %c;ill' ‘
obtain more credit at Munich, at Carlsruhe, or with
the ELECTOR Of HESSE. The particular proteaion
afforded at London, to a number of pamphlets which'
are *publiShed there against the KING of PRO'
SIA, makes it probable that Mr. MooRE would
not meet with a very favourable reception at
.It is even doubtful, whether he woulS
he received at Hanover. He is thus reduced £0
drink Constance wine, which is certainly not 50
good as that of the Cape, until a new cargo of
Allies comes fom the Indies, which will afford OA,.
means of making a small Coalition.

A Letter from Bermuda, dated the 14th Novenl"

Companies of the 47th Regiment were to emlor

41. the subjetl of which is an Alliance which Eng:
land and Russia wish to conclude with the Porte,.
The latter, however, has not, as yet, -explicitly
declared its- inteWtions. The French Chargl-d'-
4faires, Cititien Rut,lN, is treated here with the
aighest respe&.

A good Undertraniiing is again 'restored between
the Turks and the English in Egypt, and the gar_
rison linty, of Alexandria is performed jointly by
Troops of both Nations.
The French Plenipotentiary, •RtfrFlN, has re-
teived advice, that the FIR,T CONSUL has commis.
sioned Colonel SVBASTIAN/ to visit the strong
Places, and the whole coast of the Levant, and make
t report on their condition.
, The Spanish Ambassador, the Chevalier CORRAL,
aaving been insulted on a public walk, by a drunken
'lurk, complained to the proper Officers, and was
;Wired that he should receive the Stridest satisfac!
The delinquent is accordingly in close con.
Inement. _ .
