YgSTERDAY Paris journals of the 12th in3tant
feachtd. us. Dispatches from Ge:-:eral cnu-
PA=E, Commander in Chief at Guadaloupe, dated
the Bth ult. appear in the Moniteur of that date.
The general states, that since` the date of his pre-
cedicz Dispatches, when the principal unflitary ope—
ptipn; were terminated jay the taking of Ma-

touba, the troops. have only been emploted
in pursuing and exterminating the remairi,,ng
Rebels, who were deaf to the voice of Per-
suasion, and who could not be induced to re-
turn to their*duty, whose death therefore was the
only means of preventing the murder of the White
Inhabitants, and the Destruction of the Plantations.
Fifteen thousand Negroes have returned,lthe says,
to their former habitations, where they are kept in
order by a just and severe discipline, and safety and
tranquillity arc entirely re-established. The Gene-
ral has sent to France the Members of the Provi-
sory Council established on the 2ISt of. Odober
last, together with several, Inhabitants of the Co-
lony, whom he considers as having been actively em-
ployed in disturbing the tranquillity of the Colony.
The developement of their conspiracy will, he ob-
serves, serve to shew the extensive evil which
would have resulted from the revolt of the 2ist of
Odober, if its consequences had not been prevented
by the viClories of the French 'Troops.
General Ric"' EPANSE has pursued a system with
respect to his Army, different from that adopted by
General LECLERC at Saint Domingo; the former
having indiscriminately ejected from amongst his
Troops every man of Colour, allowing none to re-
main attached to the Army except a small number
of Labourers, whose assistance he found necessary.
A great number of the Officers of Colour, hitherto
attached to the French Army, are sent to France;
and the General indicates his intention of seeking
out those who yet remain concealed, or have,taken
refuge in the-neighbouring Isles, for the purpose of
giving them the same destination. The banishment
of these persons will, he says, con,tribute to the
maintenance of Good Order, which can only be pre-
served by the services of. European Troops.
Two Decrees of the Legislative Body of the
Italian Republic, proclaimed as Laws, regulate the
Organization and Jurisdidion of the Tribunals,
the Departmental Administrations, the Municipa-
lities, and the Communal Councils, the Functions of
the Judges, Prefeas, and other Officers in that
Republic ; but
.they are not sufficiently interesting
to be given in detail, t
The Evacuation of Switzerliznitby the French
Troops, appears to have encouraged many inha-
bitants of the smaller Cantons, who are inimical
to the present order of things, openly to avow
their principles, end it is even. said that their
objea is to form those Cantons into a Democratic
and Independent Republic ; many steps having
been taken by those persons indicative of such an

intention.

The Clef du Cabinet, of the izth instant, con-
tains some petulant observations upon English
Newspapers ; but, as we do not conceive ourselves
called upon to answer such kind of vague and gene-
ral charges, we shall pass them over in silence.
It appears by an article froth.Petersburgh, that
the Count DE PANIN, on travelling into Sweden.
from Russia, was desired, on the part of the KING
of SWEDEN, not to continue his journey through
that kingdom. The EitOß, on.re,:ei ring infer.:
mation of this circumstance from the Count, re.
plied, that he considered the insult as. direled
against his own person. A coolness has in conse_
quence arisen between the two Powers.,

It is stated in a Letter from Fienna, that the
most skilful Physicians 'in London and Paris have
been invited to that Capital, for the purpose of
concerting the best means of restoring the health of
the Archduke CHARLES.
