They all agree to use every means in their power

the Insurgents are daily augmenting, and their
Army now amounts to 20,00 d men. The ancient
form of Government has been established in most
of the Aristocratic Cantons. The great and small
Councils have been established, with all the Rights
which they exercisea before the year 1798; but it
has been thought proper to entrust provisionally the

particular Committees.
RATISBON, SEPT. 28.—Note from His excel-
lency Baron HUGtL, the Imperial Plenipotentiary,
to Citizen LAFoR.r.T, Minister Extraordinary of
the French Republic, dated 26th September.

" The Declaration delivered at Ratisbon in the name
of the Mediating Powers, contains a serious and unmerited
reflection upon the delays which took place in theassembling
of the Diet. Nis IMPERIAL MAJESTY therefore thinks
he owes it td himself, to sheen that the delays are not attri-

butable to Him. Ills MAJ E. STY willingly submits to the
judgment of Europe, whether he can be taxed with Injustice
or Ambition, for having insisted upon the full and entire
Indemnities which were stipulated for in the Treaty of
Luneville, for his august Brother."-

The Note then proceeds to deny, in the strongest
terms, that it ever was the intention of HIS IMP E k 1 AL
MAJ-EST V to deprive the ELECTOR of BAVARIA of

his dominions ; that he never wished to obtain any
part of Bavarza as an Indemnity for the GRAND
Dt tE of TUSCANY, except by the concurrence

of the ELECTOR, who was to be indemnified in
Swabia. It concludes with stating that " His
hIPERIAL MAJESTY has already given every as-

surance with. regard
,to the City of Passau, which
tauld be expeEled from his justice and moderation.

He is ready to give up that City to whoever, by
the final arrangement of the Indemnities, it may ap_

pear legitimately to belong."
A similar Note was transmitted to the Russian

Envoy.

The Baron de HtJGEL, the Plenipotentiary Of
His IMPERIAL MAJESTY, transmitted yesterday
to the Ministers of France and Russia, two different
Notes, in answer to those Which were transmitted
to him by those Ministers on the sth of September.
The Notes relate to the Indemnities of the DUKE of
TUSCANY, and the occupatido of the City of Pas_
sat. As to the latter, it is said that His MA-
jEs±y has giVen to that City-every assurance that
.they may exped from his justice and moderation;
and that he is ready to deliver up the City to him
who, by the legal and definitive arrangement of the
Indemnities, shall be recogniied as the legitimate
Proprietoi.

Citizen _BAcHER has communicated to the Diet
the Documents concerning the Peace with the Porte
and the DEY of ALGIERS.

The Deputation is expeaed to receive in the
course of the week, a Supplerrient to the Plan of In_

demnities.

NOTE OF CITIZEN LA FORET,
Minister Plenipotentiary from tine French Republic to the
Diet of the German Empire, addressed to His Excellency
.the Baron De Hoc Er., Plenipotentiary from His I MYER I A L
.MAJESTY to the Deputation cif the EMpire.
The Undersigned Minister Extraordinary frcirti the
French Republic to the Diet of the Germanic Empire, haS
received the Note which His Excellency the Baron de Hu cast.,
Pleripotentiary of His ImPEtria MAirsry, did him the
honour to tranSmitib him yetterday, in ansiver to that
transrhitted by the Undersigned on the 13th of September last.
He thinks it his duty to refer immediately to his Government.
and to abstain even from recalling tliedates which, in placing
the fails in their natural order, would throw light upon
many points. He seizes this opportunity to renew to His
Excellency the assurance of his high consideration.

" LANORET.

The Deputation of the Empire held yesterday its
tenth Sitting. The Direfforial Minister gave the
most precise explanatiOn, as to what he had been
charged with relative to the means of making some
provision respeding those persons who will lose
their constitutional existence in the secularized
Countries, and opened a Protoiol to receive the
Votes upon the subjeti. The same Minister also
classed in an exa6l manner, the Debts whiCh btirthen
the Countries destined to form the Indemnities
At the same Sitting a question was put upon the
demand made by the LAI4I7GRAv'E 6f HisSt-CASSEL
for a Supplement to the Indemnities which devolve
to him. The Directorial Minister' spoke very
forcibly against the Demand : he specified, in a de-
tailed ttanner, the value and the produce of the
Mvetc.e which the LANDOR AVE

Would aelbire, compared with the 'losses Which
he had sustained. The result of the Votes were
bufairociable to the demand, end it was resolved to
inform the Ministers Of the Mediating Powers Upon
the subjea.
STipyrcAini, SEPT. appears that France
and England still insist Upon Russia and Prussia
guaranteeing the Island of Malta to the Order of
Si. John of Jerusalem, and the Ministeri of those
two Powers have received orderS from their respec-
tive Govtrnments to take in concert the necessary
steps at Berlin and Petersbargh, and td obtain that
guarantee.

VIENNA, SEPT. is said here, that Citi-
zen LAtißtsTort has declared at Ratisbon, that if
the business of the IndemnitieS was not settled in
two months, the French GovernMent would find
itself under the necessity of sending ido,Ooo men
into Germany, to be maintained at the expence of
the Empire, in order to carry into execution the
Plan of Indemnities agreed Upon by the Mediating
Powers.

Letters were yesterday received from Gibraltar.
The intelligence they bring respelling Algiers
has already been, in a great measure„inticipated,by
accounts received through the Paris journals. One
circumstance, howeVer, is mentioned; which, if
true, has been carefully Concealed in the French
Official, accounts, and which renders the present in-
telligence very interesting.—The French, it is
said, are to have two of the best Algerine ports
ceded to them : a circumstance that'certainly de-
serves the particular Attention of this Country, be-
fore entirely evacuating the island of Malta.—We
subjoin the Letters as we have received them, and
%sithout offering any comment on their contents :
" GIBRALTAR SEPT. 1.-By the last accounts
from Toulon, the French arc colleCting an immense
army in that neighbourhood, (it is said, fifty thou-
sand men,) tinder pretence of an expedition against
Algiers.

Strong apprehensions seem to be justly enter-
tained by our Government, concerning the real
destination of this powerful Force, as orders haVe
been received here, within -these few days, to de-
tain all the ships of war that were on their way to
England from any parr of the Mediterranean; and
in consequence the Renown and Thames, from
Malta, have both been stopped ; the former had
Troops on board, which she landed here; in conse-
quence, two days ago.
" On the orders being received here, the Tr;:m1)1,,
commanded by Sir ROBERT BARLOW, was ordered
to cruize in the Gut, for the purpose of sending in
any Men of War that might happen to be passing.
" By the last accounts from Malta, by the Re:
nowa, the GRAND MASTE it, and Neapolitan TrOops
were shortly expected there.
" Six months more provisions are daily eXpeAed
from England, for the whole of the squadron here.
" Both the Fleet. and Garrison are in high
health, and abundantly Supplied with fresh pro.
vissons."

" SFpx. r 7 have just received the at.
counts of the French having concluded a Peace
With the DEY of ALCIER.i, on terms highly
honourable and advantageous to the former
Power.

" The DE of ALGIntS, intimidated by the
threats held out to him by the Freiich General
who was sent there, has agreed to every thing
demanded l,y BoN'APARTE. The two Algerine
Captains who were concerned taking the French
vessels, are to be severely punished ; all claims of
yearly presents in future are done away; and
two of their begt harbourS are to be ceded to
France, to be fortified and garrisoned by that
Power.

" One of the placed to be given up by the
Treaty is Lonna, an excellent harbotir, aboUt 7o
leagues to the Eastward of Algiers, ekaftly oppo-
site tti the island of Sardinia,' and which, in the
event. of any future attenipts of the French Upon
Egypt; will be a 'plaCe of infinite importance to
thetn.__lndeed, every theasure lately adopted by
the French in this part of the world seems to have
that objed in view.

" It is now certain, by the lngt accounts from
Malta, that the new GR N M.4.sT" Ea, and the
Neapolitan Troops, will shortly arrive there, as
very hlldnarra e has been heldito the Court of
Naples by the Flitsr C.ors4, on accbtint of their
delay in not sending the Neapolitan Troops
.to
Malta ; and it now appears to be deter Mined, con-
trary to Our expedatians, that Malta is to be
immediately evacuated by the British whenever the
GRANTS MASTER arrives.

" Governor CAMERON and his family, from that
place, passed us a few days ago in the lijdta Fri-
gate for England.
'" This Garrison has acquired a high state of
health since His Royal Highness the DUKE of KENT
assumed the conimand, owing to the unremitting
attention he has bestowed on the sobriety and dis-
cipline of the Troops, who now behave with the
greatest order and regulatity.
" The usual mode.adopted by His Royal High-
ness of punishir4 offenders, has generally been by
solitary confinement, or obliging them to Work a
certain number of days, without pay, on the new
roads ,which.are making, and which• has been ,at-
ended with the most salutary consequences."

Last Sunday ,evening, between ten and eleven
o'clock, the hbnse which 'encloieS the large steam
engine erected at Gravesend, for Clearing the works
of the tunnel of water; was discovered to be pn fire,
which, notwithstanding every exertion was made
to extinguish it; burnt very furiously, and consumed
nearly all the •timber work in the interior of the
house. Some tow being set on fire_ in the upper
story of the building (supposed by the carelessness of
the workman who had the catcof ►he engine), was
the cause of the above disaster, which will occasion
the Company a considerable expellee and loss of time.
to repair ; this is the more to be lamented as the
. whole of. the works were in a prosperous state.

to pay the Conimissioners their aceLtorried fees'.
The Bankrupt y esterday appeared, and profesSed
himself ready to pass his acectints, if he couid
legally Called upon so to do.
Mr. AdAit, his Counsel, insisted that the Corii_
mission was in its foundation and principle defec-
tive, and would be tiiimately .;et aside ; and Con-
sequently that if the Bankitiptdid pass egardina,
tion, he shoUld do sounde,r a protest that lie lasi
no right to pass it: He observed too; that there
was no regular Solieitot-7-that Mr. Stokes; Who
ailed as such, was not duly appointed.
In answer to the latter objeetion, Mr. Stokeit
urged, that he was duly appointed; and that his ap-
pointment appeared upon the face of the proceed-
jugs.
•
The Comthissionei.S desired to inspeft the pro,
ceeding,s, to ascertain the fatcf ; but it seemed they
h:,.d been impounded by the LORD CHAN 4:;ELLORii
upon the hearing of a Petition lately preferred to
supersede the Bankruptcy.
A Messenger was, sent to die BankrUpt's ::-.)ffiee;
to inquire ‘vnether they could be seen. The Clerk
of the Office returned for answer, that after the
Chancellor had ordered papers to be impotinded, they
could not be sheWn to any one.

The Coirimi§sioners said they should consider
Mr. Stokes as the lePitimatc Soiicitor; Unless the
contrary was ptoved.

It was then Objeded that only 'one Of the Assigneeg
was present; his name was Mr. Wrin-ht. In reply
to this objection, Mr. StokesproveShe hadi served
notices upon Mr. Morrison and Mr. trieker,' the
other Assignees, teriuiring their attendance ; and
he stated, that the Bankrupt had told hint they never
would attend. The Bankrupt denied ever having
said so ; and Mr. Stokes and Mr. Wright Armed
that he had,
Dtiring these altercations; a Mr. Wood applied
to prove a debt of sol. 'seeltred Upon two notei'
drawn by a Mr. SeWell, and accepted by the Bank-
rnpt., The consideration was for gOodS pnrchased
by SeWell for the use of the Bankrupt. The Baek.
rupt said he never had the goods, and that he was
under age when he accepted the bills. The CO11:...
missioners rejei'ted the demand.
The Commissioners then asked M. WrightWhe—
titer the Bankrupt had ever given him any infer_
oration as to his property ? Mr.Wtight
that he never had ; that he knew not Where 16 find
him, or whet:. to dired to him ; that he had n 6
fixed place of residence;. that with regard to liis
friend Mr. S7ewell, whose name had br!eti ibex:
tioned, he lived 'in a house so barricaded that
all access to it was iMpradicable—it was its
short a kind of ,Ilee,7i.sei/ Ailirie—impervions to en_'
trance. M to the Bankrupt, his castle Was' per_
fedly invisible. The Bankrupt d7elared that he was
as public as any man; and that a Irttrr direat:i to
his it:iori:i) would be sure to reach hint:
Mr. koila then remarked that another Petition
had been presented to the Chancellor to supersede the
Commissioo, and thtit an Order would be made for
hearing it the next Term. Another. W,i;enger wait
sent to die Chancellor's Oflice to know whether such
an order-was in contemplation. In the interim the
altercation bet Ween the parties continued. I he.-
Bankrupt produced an necovn tot' his proper to the
Commissioners, but at first objected to its being
sheWn to Mr. Wright, the Assignee. . The Com-
rnissioners observed, that such an oljedion was ex-
tremely indecent and unbecoming. Accordingly it
was delivered to- Mr. Wright, Various other dis-
putes arose, and a Messenger was dispatched after
the-other Messenger. The CommisSioners waited,
till past two o'clock. What information they re-
ceived we know not; but the result was, they ad-
joUrned the Meeting till next month.
'The Baronet's servant-maid attended to prove
a little debt of 31. for wages, but was told she was
too late. The girl scented much hurt ; but the So..
licitor kindly endeavotired to comfort her; by as-
suring h6r that if she did prove it, she never would
receive a shilling in the pound. . •

Between the hours of ten and eleven o'clock ort
Saturday night; a Gentleman %vas attacked by two
footpads in Chiswell-street; ore of whom insista
on his stopping, whiCh was refused ; he was then
struck so violent a blow on his left eye, by the
other; with an iron weapon; that it is feared he will
lose the sight ; 'and had it not been for a MreWood,

It was not in the Counting-hotise of Vlr. PirFn?E,

held pistols to them, as stated in yesterday's Paper.
On Sunday morning, between one and two
o'clock, the house of Mr. Baxter, the -Angel and
Crown, near Wells-row, Islington, was broke open
the villains broke two windows, which were cased
by inside thuttei.s plated wi:h iron : this frttstrated
their views there ; but they went to the third win.
