LONbO N, JULY 5, iSoz.

WE stopped the Press on Saturday, to state the
at rival of 'Freiich journals of the 29th and 3oth ult.
There is a -very important article itz the Clef diz
Cabinet, which states the'nal arrangement respea-

ing the Indemnifications which Prussia will receive
for loss of its Territories on the Rhine. It appears
that it is to receive the Bishoprics of Hildesheim,
Paderborn, part of the Bishoprics of Munster,
Eichsfeld in Thuringia, the city of Erfort, the Im-
perial town of Gosslar in Lower Saxony, the Impe-
rial-towns of.ilfu/kauren and Nordhausen, forming
in the whole 200 square leagues, and above 600,000
inhabitants.

There is every reason to bzlieve that the affairs
of the Empire will be brought at length to a speedy

termination.

An Article from Baile, of the 24th ult.represents
the Pays de Vaud to be in a very convulsed state.—
Unceasing Insurredions, and petty Hostilities, from
whatever quarter provoked, will inevitably intro-
duce a Military Power into the heart of a Country,
whose former felicity, depended wholly on the ab-
sence of every species of Military Authority, and
on the simplicity of its own Laws. There does not
appear a glimpse of hope, that the Swiss will ever
recover their antient happy condition.
Our Troops have evacuated Porto Ferrojo and
Port Mahon, which were immediately occupied by
the French Troops.

On the Dissolution of Parliament, the privilege of
franking by the Members of the'two Houses ceases
of course : but an AE of Parliament .directs that the
privilege shall again have force and effeet from the.
fortieth day previous to the day on -which'Parlia.
ment is summoned to meet, consequently the Sun)_
mons being for 31st August, the franking privilege
will re-commence on 22d July.
The Eleftion for the County of Somerset is fixed
for Friday next ; that of Norwith and OxfOrd for
this day ; for the County .of Norfolk on Monday ,
next ; and for the County of Suffolk on the isth.
From what we learn from different parts, the
Ele6tions-throughout. the Country are likely to go
very much in favour of the friends of Mr. ADDING_
TUN and Mr. PITT, and not at all favourably to
those either of Mr'. Fox or of the new Opposition:
Mr. Fox's Address to his Constituents is singu-
lar enough—" Pray, Gentlemen, elett me,'' says
he, " to a Scat in the House of Comm Ons, but whe-
ther I shall attend there, I really do not know."

We'are glad to learn that Mr. Fox approves of
die Pe'ace, kit he did not think it necessary to at-
, tend in the House of Commotit to say so, when the
Definitive Treaty was taken into consideration.
Mr. Fox, in efFeCt, tells his Constituents, that if
the next Parliament should not be more disposed to
adopt his sentiments than the last, his conduet will
be the same, or, in other words, that he will again
retire. He tells them, at the sqrne time, that he
does hot see " the smallest reason to expert that the
charaCier of the next Parliament. will be at all dif.
ferent from that of the last." Hence he, in fact,
desires them to eled him, that they may. again be de-
prived of one of their Representative.? in Parliament.
On Saturday last Sir FRANCIS BURDETT was
cAnyaSsing in Lincoln's Inn, with his friend George
Augustus &nag, who was tried some. time since
for Hie Treason. Bonne), is Sir FRANC Is's Agent
for the Middlesex ElectiOn.

The junto are .cautioned not to attempt passin,,,;
themselves -for the Freeholders of the County of
Middlesex. The County of Middlesex has with
spirit ancl dignity supported the principles of
Liberty, and can distinguish well betwixt Liberty
ansl,Faffion. Neither ladious Criminals, nor cri-
minal FaElions can impose upon a body of men,
perhaps 'the most enlightened and independent of
any who are represented in the great Council of
the '.British Empire. When men have to choose
between the principles of Liberty and Protedion on
the one hand, and , those of Anarchy and. Rebellion
on the other, they cannot be long in deciding.
The attacks upon the character of Sir THOMAS
TURTON, relating to a matter not at all connected
with . political subjeds, betray an illiberal; matig..
nant spirit, that far exceeds the usual" bounds of
eleaioneering license.
It is rather a convenient circumstance, that since.
theliSt General Election, the Courvvy is pretty well
interseded with Navigable Canals, so that the Can-
didates may now,• with very little expence, tow their
Constituents down to their Boroughs, and that in
defiance of wind and tide, without subjecting them-
selves to the disaster which befel the late Lord NEW-
HAVEN. When his Lordship put up for Canterbury,.
he shipped a whole load of Voters in a Margate Hoy.
( eing an economical way of travelling), but .the,
wind being Unfavourable, the freight arrived the
day after the poll was over, and consequently his
Lordship lost his eledion.
Colonel LE W t s Mg( ENZ 111, of the Ross and Cro-
mart),
•Rangers, was sentenced•by a Court-Martial,
'held at .Edinburgh on the zoth ult. to be dismissed
His Majesty's Service, on charges preferred by Capt.
Mitts RO ; but the Court recommending a mitigation,
the KING remitted the sentence.

On Saturday last the Purser of the Hon. East
India Company's ship the
,Royal Admiral arrived at
the. India House, with the agreeable intelligence of
-that ship being safely arrived in the Downs. • The
Royal Admiral was hired by Government to carry
COnviets to New South Wales, and has' brought a
cargo from China on account of the East India
Company. The only ship left at Macao was the.
Ganges, Captain' E XAN DER GRAY. 'The Royal
Admiral sailed from the island oc St. Helena on the
loth of May, and left 'at.that place the Company's'
outward bound ship the. Marquis ,of Ely, Captain
ANDR E W•FIANNAY, which was expette to sail in a
few days for, China.

A number of Passengers landed at Portsmouth
from the Phoenix West Indiaman, which brought_
:o at St: Helens on Thursday 'night, from Jamaica ;
among ?hem W;:s J. Dtcx, Esq. Naval Store-keeper
at Jamaica. _

:Lord SOWERVILL r , we have the pleasure to state,
is perfealy out of dancer.
