Tuts morning we received far:: P:7l2l's to the

lath instant.

The Modieur 'of the ;; th contains an Article,
which may be considered as an official denial of all in.
tentint; on the part of France to become a party-to.any
dismemberment of the'Turkish Empire; and which
also contradids the reportS that have been lately,in
circulation, of other Eu-ropean Powers having form.
rita_Projett for tke Pariiiion of that
,Empire. It
observes that this is not the moment when it can
be supposed that the First, Consul will occupy him-
self with schemes of aggrandizement and cot?...
quest ; and that so far from this, all the former
relations with the Subritts? Porte have been renewed ;
-whilSt "it must be seen, that it i.•rather the inter-
est of France, that the• Ottoman Enipire should be
re-etablished in all its strength and all its power...
- Another article in the same Paper, eOntiadias a
report of a Loan transailion having taken place be.
tween France and America.

A Decree of the LegiSlatireßody of the Italian
Republic, proclaime-d as a Law, regulates the or.
ganization and jurisdidion .of the Tribunals and
.the funEtions of the Judges in that Rerblie„nearly
upon the same prin-eiple as the same subjeCts have
been organized and regulated in France.
The EVaciation, Of Switzerlandby 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, and. it is even said Olaf their
Objeet is to form those Cantons into a Democratic
and .inclependent. Republic; many steps having
been taken h).7 those 'perSons indicative of
intention.

A llambzirgEMail :,irived this morning, which
brings the important intelligence of a Treaty of
CounnArce having .been concluded between France
and Ruisja,
.on the basis or,theConvention of Neu-
trdity formed between the-Northern Powers during
the Lae War.

'An Article' from the Hague, contains asupposi-
-
tion.zhat the Legislative Body, will be entirely abro-
gated, and its funaions;exercised by Eight Depart_
mental Administrations, the supreme authority to
Le concentrated in the State Directory.

The more we refiea upon the.article which we had
occasion to animadvert upon fqr the two last days, the
more we seegrounds for suppbsing that it could not
Lave been inserted in The Moniteur with the know.
ledge or consent of the French Government, We
arc the more inclint.ti to indulge. in this opinion,
when we recollea, that some time ago an . Article
appeared in the same Paper, in which justice was in
some degree done to the Talents. and,Virtues cf •the
late Minister, We can hardly suppose it pos._
sible that the men who thus had magnanimity
enough to pay just homage to one who had
.so lately-, been their Enemy, would condescend to
authorize the publication, in the face of Europe, and
of the Civilized, World, of-Assertions at once so
mean and so groundless. But even- if the French
Government chose, which we still believe impro,
bable, to vent. its spleen again:“ the Man who con-
' ciliates the Admiration of all
.Nations, and must
continue to be that, of all Posterity, while Civilized
Society has existence, why should- it indulge in in.
vie Lives againit the present Minister's of •this
Country ?—,-Men who- have established Peace be-
tween the two Nations With a candour and sincerity
of condul, which must entitle them to the respel
and esteem of all mankind—who have produced a
Reconciliation at which both Nations so- Warmly
and sincerely rejoiced, and Which it is so midi. the
interest of both to render complete and permanent.,
.For the expression of any hostile sentiment, we are
certain there can be no reasonable grounls, vid
therefore it is that we are bonnd to believe 4nyLlem-
ber of the French Government incapable of enter_
.
taining it. The Artielein question we are inclined,
• upon the whole, to think the offspring merely of some
malevolent writer in the French Journal, who either
gratifies his personal feelings, or has some interest-
ed end to answe:, by an aftempt'to disturb the goad
understanding which p:ctv. ails between two Govern,
ments, upon whose pac:ilc,i.iispositiohs so entirely
