FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

HAGUE., DEC. t¢.—General MONTRICHARD,
whom the First Consul has sent hither, to take the
command of the French Troops in this Republic,
immediately after his arrival, informed the Bata-
viar Government of the intentions with which he
came, and let them know that he would .fix his
Head-Ouarters in this City, into which he would
introduce as a garrison, a company of Carabineers,
with a few troops of Infantry. This intimation
excited much disagreeable surprize, as the Public
had conceived the period to have arrived at which
the Troops ot France were to be withdrawn entire-
ly out of this Country, agreeably to the late Treaty,
and to the most solemn and formal promises of
France. The Batavian Government Signified to
General IVloNTatcHAttn, that it could not recog-
nize him as Commander in, Chief of the French
Forces in this Republic. The General, upon re-
ceiving this answer, in which the Government
evinced the greatest firmness and decision, 'dispatch-
ed one of his Aides-de-Camp to Paris, to report
what had passed, to the First Consul. •The termi-
nation of the affair is expeded here with much
Anxious curiosity.
General VICTOR, Captain-General of Louisiana,
is expeded to arrive to-morrow morning at the
Hague : he will. embark with his Troops at Hel-
voetsluys in Transport Ships furnished by this Re-
public. .The Expedition will, without touching at
Dunkirk, proceed directly to the place of its ulti.
tmtte destination, as has been announced in the
French Newspapers.
We-. have just been informed that the Batavian
Government has signified to that of the French Re,.
'public, that it cannot continue its.pay to the French
Trcops beyond the close of the present month.. • .
Our last Letters from Copenhagen intimate, that
the latest accounts there received from the Danish
West India Isles, signify that. this year's produce
of sugar has been uncommonly. abundant ; and that
more than 30,000 tons of this commodity have been
already freighted from St. Croix for Europe.
We have received here news of unquestionable
certainty, that the French have entirely lost St.
Domingo ; and that the wretched remains of that
Army must have, before this:time, evacuated that
Isle.

HAMBtJRGH, DEC. 10.—According to private
advices from Vienna, of the zst inst. it is certain
that two Russian Courierihave passed through that
City with Letters from the Emperor ALEXANDER
to the First Consul and the British Government,
containing the most urgent representations in fa-
vour of the KING of SARDINIA, and of the ameli-
oration of his Establishinent.

With regard to the Dutchess of PARMA, she is
to remain at Vienna until the Convention' between
France and Spain, respelling Her Highness's future
support, shall be settled. Those • Negotiations
were begun at Barcelona, and will be terminated at
Madrid.

By order of the Court of Vienna, a paragraph
has been inserted in the Austrian journals, purport-
ing, that the rumour of an alliance between ;he
two Imperial Courts and Great. Britain, is void of
foundation. Other authentic. advices mention, on
the other hand, that the same plan is still under
consideration.

The French interest seems at present to be very
high at the Court of Vienna, since the'arrival of
two Couriers from Paris, at the Hotel of the French
Ambassador, CutoarAcilr, who immediately after
visited the Austrian Minister for Foreign Affairs,
Count COB ENTZ EL, with whom he had a very long
conference ; after which the Count waited on the
EMPEROR and theGRANn DUKE of TuscAsy, the
latter of whom those Dispatches seem to concern.

At Munich a Convention has been concluded'
with the Prussian Minister of State,, Baron HAR-
DENBERG, respeaing the exchange of certain ..Ter
ritorial Possessions in Franconia.

Her IMPERIAL MAJESTY of Germany is so very
far advanced in her pregnancy, that her delivery is
hourly expeEled. .
The KING of SWEDEN has sent a new Ambassa-
dor to the Court of Vienna, in the
.person- of the
Baron d'Aßmr ELDT, who. is to bring with him very
extensive powers, besides proposals of a stricter
union between the two Courts. Baron -d'Aam-
-reLDT'S abilities as a Statesman are very highly
spoken of ; and be is a determined enemy to those
political innovations, the consequence of which has
been an almost entire change of the political aspel
of. the greatest part of Europe. This Nobleman is
likewise highly esteemed by the present EMPEROR
of RusslA, and some of the first Statesmen of that
Country.. . ,
