FROM THE FRENCH PAPERS.

VIENNA, AUG. I MAJESTY, the EM.
PFROR, atter having held a Council on the 9th, de.
parted the same evening for Baden. Yesterday
morning His MAJESTY returned to this city, ,and
assisted at an A+s:►nbly composed of the greatest part
of the Ministers and Councillors. The Archdukes
tHARLiII and Joszpit were present. The -Arch.
duke Josarit set off the same day for Buda, and this
morning the Archduke CHAttAIS departed fur the
Camp at }'est.
M. Da CHAMPIONY, Ambassador of France, has
seht a Courier with Dispatches for Paris on the
9th.
This Minister, some days before, had a long con.
ference with M. Ds ConENTZEL, Minister of Fo.
reign Affairs. The Gazette of the Court has avoid.
ed; even to this day, to speak of the Chief of the
French Empire under the title of Emperor. It corn.
manly designates him, the- New Sovereign of
France.

The Vice Chancellor of the Empire, Count Da
COLLOR E DO, is dangerously sick.
Tranquillity being perfeelly restored in the Ita.
Tian Provinces belonging to our Court, it has been
judged proper, it is said, to diminish the number
of Troops that have been hitherto kept in the Ter.
ritorics of Venice. These Troops will be sent to
Albania and Daltivitia, where existing circum.
stances render an augmentation of the Garrisons ne.
cessary.

The Militia of the Tyrol ate already completely
organized according to the new system established
by the Archduke CHARM. They will he exer-
cised in the management of arms at the end of Au-
gust; and there is some talk of grand manoeuvres
which will take place in the environs of Inspruck, at
the commeucernent of the Autumn. It ought to re.
suit from this organization of the Tyrolean Militia,
that no more Regular Troops will be necessary in
that Country in time of Peace than one Garrison;
Regiment.

HANovvR,.AU.GUT of the De_
potation yesterday morning nip.mnrea the MarThal
BertsADorrt with a coach driwn by fiur English
horses.

The French Camp formed near Arnim, the Troops
of which General BERNAnCVE'TE makes to pass in_
ceSsantly in review, is composed of 7000 Infantry,
and goo Cavalry.
The Prussian General DE BUCHER, C,►mmand_
ant of that part of Westphalia that belongs to the
Court of Berlin, is constantly in. this City. The
Prussian Troops assembled in Westphalia do not
exceed 8000 men. The French and Prussian OR_
cers are in the habits of intimate connexion, and
treat each other with the greatest distinction.
HActrz, AUG. 14.-The Counsel of Marine has
sent one of its Members to the Texel to inspea all
the Naval Forces, and especially .the Transports
that are to be found there, Two Commissaries set
over the magazines at the Texel have received or.
ders, some days ago, to complete the supplies. It is
generally believed that the Camp at Zeist wilt be
transferred to the Coast of North Holland.

A respellable Morning Paper ccntains the fol-
lowing article

We stop the Press to say, that we have just received, by
Express; a COPY of FRANCIS DICLARATION, con.
firming every. particular respelling his assumption of the new
Title' `• HEREDITARY EMPEROR of AUSTRIA."-:

BonalLarte's Coronation Coarb.—The workmen
are busily employed upon the Coronation Coach.
It appears to be intended at the same time to revive
the
.remembrance of many arras memorable for
France. Upon the doors will he the arms of the
Empire. Upon the Imperial will be seen the Crown
of CHARS,EMACNE, and upon the hammer cloth, the
bees of the Kings of the first race. The Crown,
borne by four, eagles, will be placed upon an altar.
Eagles' heads will also adorn the harness,which will
be of red Morocco, edged in bronze, gilt with or
mobs. The Imperial will be supported by four
gorical figures. The body of the carriage will be
ornamented with a stripe, composed of medallions,
representing the Departments, anti bound together
by a chain of spangles. This carriage is making by
M. GETTING, coach-maker, in the Rue de Pro.
vence, after designs by M. PERCIER, archited to
the Emperor, and under the direction of General
CAT/ NCOU RT, Grand Master of the Horse.
It is impossible that the EMPEROR of Russia,
or the KING of PRUSSIA, can be satisfied with the
new title assumed by the Esar ROR of GERMANY ;
and the assumption seems to be one of the weakest
measures that a Legitimate Potentate could have
adopted in the present situation of European Affairs.
Tice EMP ERoR of RUSSIA must he shocked to see a,
regular Sovereign of an'ancient and illustrious race,
follow the example of a detestable Uotarr. The
Kr NC of Pausstia, who has long been a Tival of the
House of Au•tria, must be jealous of a new assump„
tion of hereditary dignity superior tai his own. In
fad, the new F,SteEKOR of AUSTRIA gets nothing
by the change in his title, and brings himself no
nearer to an hereditary succession in his family of
the rank of EMPEROR of GERMANY. lie has now,
by. taking ,a ne,w title, levelled himielf with a Cor.
sican Adventurer, will, though he hai seated him-
self upon the Throne of France With a higher dis.
tindim than belongs to the rightful claimant of that
Throne, sits under the sword of DAMOCLES, and
is every moment in danger of, being swept lrom the
earth like the rest of the thurpers and Regicides
who have been exalted by a Revolution which has
debased their Country, and brought it into the most
severe, odious, and ignominious bondage.
As the Morning Prints have strangely misrepre-
sented an affair between two Members of the Royal
Westminster Regiment of Volunteers, we arc in-
duced to mention some particulars relating to an
occurrence which, but for such a perversion of fads,
would be unworthy of ootice.
A small party of the sixth Compitny of that Re-
giment met on Monday evening, for the purpose of
spending a convivial hour ; late in the even.
ing, Mr. L. who is an. assistant to his father, a
school.master, came in, and Hoed the parry, and,
as stated, refused to drink his Colonel's health,
alledging that Colonel ROBE RTsON had treated him
unhandsomely, having formerly reprimanded him
for talking when under arms.
As remonstrances were fruitless, and the party
highly disgusted, Mr. M. made use of the language
imputed to him, using-expressions Mr. L. next day
wished him to retrad ; this led, through the un-
necessary officiousness of some friends (or foes mare
properly speaking), to an exposure at Bow-street of
an affair which would otherwise have sunk into
oblivion.

CITY Bust aress.—There being no Court of Alder.
men held yesterday at Guildhall, on account of the
non.at tendartce of several of the Aldermen, his Lord.

the Worshipful Company of Bakers at the Mansion.
house, to set the Assize of Bread ; which his Lord.
ship, after minutely examining the Reports of the
Mealweighers, ordered to be lowered one Assize and
a half, or three-pence in the peck.loaf, to commence
to-morrow. The quarters loaf wheaten will• then
be sold fort id, farthing, and household 91. three
farthings..
We have been requested by a Correspondent,
who describes himself to-he an Officer belonging to
a Regiment encamped at Shorncliff, to state, that
the account published in the Star of Monday re.
speeting the late unfortunate Duel which tot* place
at that Camp, is incorrect, both with regard to the
names of the parties, and the particulars of the dis.
pute. An authentic account will be published in a
day or two.

It seems to be the fa'vourife tleasahtly of the
chief Opposition Print to call Mr. PITT Colonel,
and we shall'probably have that word bandied about
with as sickening a frequency as Mr. Aontrio-roN's
nickname of 110,Jr. But as Mr. Prrr only pro.
vokes the Opposition Writers by discharging his
duty to the Country with zeal and ability, and
consequently afirds no hope to

'halt shall turn him out, it would be hard to deny
them an opportunity of amusing thrmselves with
harmless r„sottint upon word!.
