LONDON, DECEMBER 3, 16 oz.,

YESTERDAY morning Count Sc austmt "ik N-
NtNCX, the Dutch Ambassador, with his Family and
Suite, landed at Dover. He was expeded in 'low o
to-day.
The account which we yesterday gave of the
sudden dismissal from Paris of Count STAHREM.
n ERG, by an order from the French Government,
has excited much comment, as well as aurprize.
As this information seems to be doubted by some of
our ignorant Cotemporaries, we think it necessary
to say that we pledge ourselves fur its authentiLity.

Tuts forenoon a Dutch Mall arrived. By an
article from the Frontiers of Switzerland, it ap-
pears, that fresh ferments have arisen in the Lesser
Cantons, in consequence of the rigid measures pur--
sued by the French.

BY the Jamaica Mail, which arrived yesterday,
Government received Accounts which fully con-
firm the disastrous issue of the French Expedition
to St. Domingo. It was understood at Jamaica,
that LECLERC had aftually re-embarked with the
remnant ofhis Army, consisting only of about 1509
men, and that two Black; Regiments in the pay of
France had joined the Insurgents, who were in very
considerable force.

Last night we received I'aris Papers to the 3oth
ult.
It is not yet known what arc to be the additional
Indemnities of the GRAND PUEE of TUSCANY, but
it is stated, in a Letter from- reana, that the two
Secretaries of the French Legation in that Capital had
set out for Paris with the Ratification of the Treaty
concluded between Austria and France respecting that
subject. The Bishoprics of Trent and Brixen" haVe in
the mean time been taken possession of, ip the name of
the GRAND DU K E,.by order of the EMPEROR.
In Sviitzerland the Senate has issued a Decree,
imposing upon all the Cantons, in proportion to
their resources, a War Contribution of 900,000
(37,5,001.) for -the support of the French
Troops. • One of the Articles of the Decree re- •
serves to the Senate the power of exacting extraor-
dinary Contributions from those Cantons, Com-
mulles, or Individuals, who have taken a part in
what that body chuses to call the Insurrection ;
upon which subject the Executive Power is ed-
reefed to make a Report within one month.-,---
This Decree appears to be intended to throw nearly
the whole burden of supporting the French Troops
upon the unfortunate Patriots, under the pretence
of imposing a general contribution upon the whole
of Switzerland ; thus, not content with depriving
the brave Defenders of their Country's cause of their
Political Liberty, and even imprisoning their per.
sons, the Oppressors. of Switzerland will make them
pay fOr the chains with which they have loaded
them. ALOYS REDING and ADF-DER-MAUR still
remain immured in the Castle of ArbGurg. Deputies
fro:3l the Carrtons are continually setting out for
Paris, but .the- Elections are not yet completed.
'lke Ilioniteur was expeded, according to re.
port, to give the Debate in the British Parliament
on the Address to His MAJESTY, at some length,
and to make comments upon the Speeches of the
different Members, but it contents itself with giv-
ing a very short statement of the Proceedings of
both Houses of Parliament, and with extracting from
the Mercure de France some miscellaneous observa-
tions on subjects likely to occupy theattention of the
British Legislature. In these observations some re-
ference is made to the Affairs of India, which seem of
late to have become a favourite subject of discussion
with the French- Papers ; and they conclude with
declaring, that no Government would consent to
the interference of England in those arrangements
whic,h the Peace has rendered necessary ; and that
tire interference of France in the affairs of Switzer-
land was indispensable. •
It is again stated that Three Thousand French
Troops have arrived at Leghorn and Pisa.
The French Funds are 53, to.
•

Yesterday at twelve o'clock, Mr. ABRAHAM
NEWLAND attended the Omnium Holders, at the
Stock Exchange, to announce to theM that the BANK
DI R ECTORS had agtkeed to their application; and
that, instead of paying, towards -the redemption of
their Cnnium, 4o per Cent. on the z Ist of January,
they were to advance zo per Cent. on the 74th of
January (which would assist them till after the
opening of the Consols.) and the other zo-per Cent.
on the )6th of April : so the whole payments for
the redemption of the Qmnium will now stand thus :
On toll of Jan. 20 per Cent. I On 18th of Marcli,.3o per Cent.
isth at, Fcb.,,30 per Cent. 16th ot April, zo per Cent.
After thts 'communication had been made, the Funds
ruse about a half pet Cent.

The PriVy Council sat again yesterday. Seven
persons were fully committed to Newgate to take
their trials for High Treason,
X Court of Common Council was held yesterday
at Guildhall, which being the first Court in the
new Mayoralty, the Lord Mayor addressed' them
in an elegant speech of considerable length.
The Thanks of the court were moved and qe.
corded to Sir joHti Emy4a,*the late Lord Mayor,
