Wra learn with the most heart-felt satisfaaion,
that ills MAJESTY is so far recovered as to issue a
Commission for giving the Royal Assent this day to
s-veral Bills which have passed both Houses of ear-
,
lidthent.

Our Falmouth Letter 'repeats the Report of the
French Squadron.haNing got out of Toulon, and it
is added, that they had got into Carthagena, It is
now said to consist of fourteen Ships_of the Line.
We must still doubt the faet of its having made its

!,that the Plot discovered on the 16th ult. in Paris, .

'man who ke. , i,.,4i afraid to leave behind him, should
it be necessary for him, for any length of time, to
quit his Capital.. In :this opinion we are upon te-.
/- • ,
fleetion more and more confirmed. Many...of the
circumstances attending the supposed Conspiracy
,which have been officially given to the world in the
:Report, of the. Minister of Justice, are upon the face
of them Falsehoods, and we have nodoubt thit,all the
;Documents which will be brought forward to sub.

will' turn out to be deliberate Forgeries. Our first
opinidn is very considerably strengthened by the
faa', which, we 'believe,- we are accurate When
wegrate very
.psitively, that General PtOHEGIttt,
the man whO in the" Report.- of- the aforesaid
Minister of Justice is represented as having been

The Dutch Papers say that the CHIEF CONSUL '
has been twice at the Theatre since he has played
off his-precious plot, and has been received with
great acclamations. This was precisely the cata...
strophe which he-Wished to produce. His waning
popularity, as well as his jealousy, required that
some sacrifice should'be made to give a stimulus to
.the sinking spirits of the: Army, and the languor
'Of the Parisians.: .TO see a favourite General ex.
pine unjustly on the scaffold, will be a spectacle
which we have no doubt both Will witness with

most perfea nonchalance, and to this will perhaps
succeed the farce ..of the Invasion. The laws of

with the lives of individuals,, and the h4piness of

Nations, for the purpose of propping fora few short

administered power. - . , . _

The reports of the execution of IVIoREms, and
it is added, •of PICHEGRU too ! are evidently un.
founded. Though all the decurcents and proofs
against MOREAU will be Forgeries, yet we hardly
thick that -BONAPARTE will venture to execute him
without the form of a trial.

Some Dutch Papers to the zgth ult. were received
in Town yesterday afternoon. '

The accounts from Paris which these Papers af-
ford, state, that the Ft kyr CoNsuL had twice vi_
sited the ,public Theatres since the discovery of
MottEAtes. pretended' Conspiracy, where he was
greeted with the loudest plaudits. After witness-
ing the dispdsition evinced by the French People;
for some time 'misc., we should certainly not be suf._
prized if even the execution of Mott sAu were to be
passed over with unconcern.
BONAPAr,TE is stated to have issued orders for ac.
celerating all the Preparations for the InVasion
of
this Country. General DUMAS and Rear-AdMiral
•MoNGEODI were on a visit of inspeftion to the dif-
ferents Ports and Dock Yards of Belgium, with a
view also to forward the equipments. The greater
part of the Gun. boats and Transports at Flushing
had put to sea with Troops on board, but in conse-
quence:of a fog had returned into Port. The French
'General in Chief,, MARNIONT, arrived on tne. 27th
at Amsterdam from Utricht, and, it was reported,
was immediately_to proceed to the Helder.
Letters from Russia state, that an additional
number of Battalions of Infantry and Squadrons of
Cavalry had been called into actual service, with.
orders to march to Lithuania, to join the grand
Army in that Province. Orders are also stated to.
have been sent to the Russian. Fleei in the Black
Sea, to set sail immediately with all the Transports
and Troops to the Morea; and the Emperor At,tx.
ANDER iS said to have expressed his readiness to ac-
cede to a Treaty between Great Britain, Turkey-
and Russia, for the pro tettion of the Ottoman Em.
sue.
General MQ.RTIER left Hanover on the t 7.th.
Previous to his departute he assured the States,
in
that
he world make 'the most urgent representations
their favour 46 the FIRST CONSUL. As an earnest,
however, or his good intentions, the Commissioner
whom he left behind him is stated to have imposed
a new War Contribution, and to have made addi-
tional requisitions for hones and other supplies- for
the French Army. •

The 1-lead.quarters of the French Army in
.the
Neapolitan territories were at Barletta, on the.
Coast of the Adriatic.

Letters from 1/;.enna of the 9th ult. state, that
the interchange of Couriers with Berlin, Paris,
London and Peiersburgh, continued with unusual
activity, and that interviews daily took place be.
tween the Austrian Ministers and the Ambassadors
from those Courts.
