SOLEM QV'S DICERS FALL m AUDZAT ?

LONDON, OCTOBER zB, 1801.

WE this morning received the Farb Papers to
the 26th inst. The French Government has at
length thought proper to enter into a kind of justi-
fication of the measures which it has adopted to.
wards Switzerlaxd. This justification appears in
the shape of a Letter from M. TALLEyttAND, the
Minister for Foreign Affairs, to M. De CtTro,
the Bavarian Minister. it states that the me-
diation of the FIRST CONSUL was the result of
the general wish of the People of Slx;txtriernd,
and that the interest of France, of Switzer.
land, and of Europe, required that the FIRST
CONSUL should no longer persist in the determina-
tion he had formed, of not interfering in the affairs
of that. Country. The Insurgents ate stated to be
a handful of turbulent Emigrants, deserters from
Foreign Armies, who wished to carry fire and sword
into their Country-, and to deprive almost the whole
of their Fellow-citizens of their Rights. M. TAL-
L EYRAND then asserts. what appears rather para-
doxical; that this handful of Emigrants would have
succeeded in restoring the ancient Government
against the inclination,of almost all the People of
Switzerland, if it had not been for the mediation
of France. It is not, however, singular, that the
French- Minister should not have been very suc.
cessful in defending a measure so inconsistent
with the Rights of Nations, and so repugnant to
every principle of justice. The Submission of
the People of Switzerland ro the Mandates, or,
as. it is called, the Mediation of France, does
not, however, appear to be so unconditional as
was at first supposed, Letters from Basle state,
that the Diet. cf are to hold the reins
of Government until one is definitively orga-
nized. The Members of the Central Government,
who were to teturn to Belize, are said to have
given in their resignation ; what is still
more important, the French Minister has requested
the Executive Committee of 7.1 who had directed
the affairs of the Confederates under the Diet of
Schavitz, to re,asspaible, and has submitted some
important propositions for their consideration ; under
these circumstances, it appears that the Firkt Consul
does not intend :o rc.t.stablish icy force a Government

which had excited the indignation of a great majo-
rity of the People of Switzerland, but that some-
thing like a compromise will take place between
the contending parties.
The majority of the Deputation of the Empire
at Ratisbon, have voted for the new Plan of] ndem-
ni ties, but they have not yet agreed to a Conc/asum.
Several Princes who conceive themselves more
aggrieved by this, than by the former Plan, have
presented strong remonstrances against it to the
Deputation.

The Funds are 53. so.

A Han:burgh Mail arrived this .morning; but
its contents are nearly all anticipated by the French

Papers.

Yesterday a Court of Diretiors was held at the
East India (louse, when two of the emla Ships taken
up this season were ordered to touch at St. Helena.
The Court adjourned at six o'clock till this day.
The answer of the Bank was to be given this.day
to the Loan-holders—lt is supposed that it will ex-
tend the period for redeeming the Omnium to
February, if not to April.
His Royal Highness the PR tNc t of WAL Es has
been a little indisposed at Brighton.
• The Earl of 11.1.-livsriELD seems to have embraced
the Army as a profession. He has risen to the
rank of Captdin in the 4.4.1 i Regiment.
The 4,11 and 9th Regiments are going to India.
Both these Regiments have been latev reduced ; but
all the good men were retained and consolidated into
thi: remaining Battalions.
Mr. FERGUS'ON, of Pitfour, a few days ago
gave a Grand Gala to about ,tc.',o persons, at Aber-
deen; among whom were tie: Marquis of HuNT.
L' and Lady MADELINA SINCLAIR.
Lord and Lady HOLLAND have arrived at Bout-
deaux.

Count RUMFORD is still at Munich.
In the new establishments formed at St. Cloud,.
four Maids of Honour have been appointed for Ma-
dame BortApARTE, who attend her on all grand
Fetes and public Levees. The CHIEF CONSUL on
all the most recent invitations to St. Cloud, dined
with his own family in an inner apartment, while
Citizen Duttoc offidated as a kind of Lord Steward
of the Household at the head of the table for the
guests, in an adjoining room. His Stud is com-
posed of 350 horses, -and his grooms are eighty in
.•
number. , With rcspea to footmen, the Palace may
be said to be garnished with liveries of bottle-green
and gold.

It is said, bur we do not know with what truth,
that the Ft RsT CoNstri, has prohibited the export of
silk from France co this Country, or the transit of
that commodity destined for this Country through
the Frencb Republic.

The three lianseatic Cities of Hamburgh, Lubec,
and Bremer,, have addressed a Memorial to the De'..
putation of the Empire, in order to obtain from
that Body a formal at to secure. their Neutrality in
all future Wars.
The death of the Duke of PARMA, Infant of
Spain, was very sudden. He dined on the 7th inst.
at Fonterivo, where he visited a School, and. after
dinner assisted at an exercise of the scholars, when
he was suddenly seized with a cholic, which re_
. duced him 'to such extretni:y, that he expired the
following night. Before his decease, however, he
provided for the Administration of Public AfEtirs,
and appointed .aßez:ency of State, at - the head of
which, is the ARcp DUTCH ESS his widow.
The ci_devant'Grand Master-of Malta has ex-
perienced that kind of treatment which his cow_
ardly condu6t deserved. When he treacherously
surrendered that important Island to General BONA-
PARTE, he did it on the stipulation that he was to
be compensated by a German Principality in the
arrangement of the Indemnities ; but by the neg.
lea with which he is now treated, he meets with
that disappointment which should be the reward of
every Traitor.
THE CLERGY.— The Bishop of ROCHESTER,
much to the honour of that learned and humane Pre-

late, is endeavouring to forward the establishment
of an Institution for the relief of the Widows,
Children, and Families of Clergymen, who may die
in a state, of indigence.. This laudable plan is to be
supported by subscription ; and to procure it the
most extensive patronage, the • annual subscrip_
tion is not expected. to exceed one guinea.
-rAs the .Laity, as well as the Clergy, may con-
tribute to this benevolent undertaking, it will pro-
bably receive a general support, and a provision be
afforded for many widows and orphans who would
otherwise have no resource when- the prop of the
family should fall into the grave. The more this
benevolent Institution is known, the more, we trust,
will it be patronized by-a people always alive to the
interests of humanity, Which seem to be particularly
concerned in giving. hope and comfort to the declin-
ing days of those whose duty it is to prepare us for
a better state.

It is said that Dr. HART, the High Priest of the
Dutch Jews, has signified to the Elders of that
Nation, that he will not dispense with the ob-
servance of any of the Rites of the Jewish
gion, and that he will punish with excommuni-
cation all such Jews as indulge their appetites
with etc/dd./9,1,a; as also make such of them as are
married, answerable that the heads of their wives
shall be Shaved, and kept so in future under a simi.
lar punishment and, to the mortification of all the
Jewish Ladies, they will be obliged to undergo
this operation, previous to their appearing the next
time at their Synagogue. He has also compliment-
ed his: Nation, in informing them that they are the
least stria in their religion of any in Europe.
A Miser died lately at Vienna, who had amassed
a sup of money which filled thirty bags, each con.
taming 4 thousand pieces, of all the different coins
in circulation in the Imperial States. tie was pos-
sessed besides of considerable Landed Property, and
spent only about 71-d. per day. No person ever
enteccl his chamber, except himself;
