IFE AND CORRESPONDENCE Or GARRICK.-
A new and cheaper edition of this interesting work is on the
eve of its appearance, This will be another acceptable boon
to the libraries of circulation, the proprietors of which find it
in(possible to afford the purchase of many original publications
of an expensive nature. This work, it will be recollected, in-
cludes numerous epistles from such writers as Burke, Johnson,
Warburton, Goldsmith, Gibbon, Robertson, Hume, Warton,
&c.---from such wits and men of the world as Sheridan,
Wilkes, Colman, &c., and from such artists respectively as
Reynolds and Gainsborough, in one line, and Foote, Hender-
son, Parsons, King, MaclsJin, Mrs. Clive, Mrs. Cibber, Mrs.
&c., in another ; every one must desire to see a
work which is made up of the familiar thoughts and feelings of
persons like these, admitted to a place in all public libraries.

(From the Messager des
By article 13 of the treaty of of
Prussia ceded to France his Polish ,
them all the credits he possessed in the . -I.l3Arbi6
by the treaty of the 23d of July, 1807, the Duchy of War-
saw was given to the King of Saxony, the empire, by
article 4, reserved to itself all these credits. Some 'diffi-
culties having arisen relative to certain credits which
Prussia wished to preserve, as belonging to certain pUblic
Prussian establishments, they were done away with by the
treaty of the Bth of September, 1808, in which Prussia
abandoned her claims. The credits acquired by the empire
amounted in capital to 43,466,000 f. There were also due
in May, 1808, for interest in arrear from before and since:
the conquest, a further sum of 4,000,000 f. These sums,
amounting in all to nearly 48,000,000 f., were granted to the
King of Saxony by the convention of Bayonne of the 10th
of May, 1808. In consideration of this grant, the King of
Saxony delivered to the Treasury of the Extraordinary
Domain bonds to the amount of 20,000,000 f., bearing in-
terest at 5 per cent„ and payable at different periods during
the years 1809, 1810, and 1811. In the year 1814, the
King of Saxony, in consequence of several postponements
of payment, was still indebted to France a capital of be.
tween 15,000,000 and 16,000,000 f., without calculating
interest. . The treaty of May 30, in the same year, having
taken place, France renounced all demands upon the
countries restored to the allies, and these Powers, on their
part, relinquished all claims upon account of the countries
they thus recovered. The rights of individuals were re-
served. On the 30th of March, 181.5, the Emperor of
Russia, by a treaty signed at Vienna, put the King of Prus-
sia in possession of all the capital sums which had been
ceded to the Duchy of Warsaw, requiring not only that
France should renounce all claims upon these capital sums,
but that she should restore all the sums that had been paid
by the Duchy of Warsaw on account of the bonds given in
execution of that contract. France consented to this, and
signed the convention of the 27th of September, 1816.
Thus France was constrained to fulfil the burdensome con-
ditions of the treaty of the 30th of May, 1814, and at the
same time renounce the reciprocity stipulated by it in her
favour. It was in consequence of this secret convention
that Count de Hedouville was sent in 1818 to Warsaw,
with powers from the French Government.' Whether from
apprehension on the part of Russia, that the liquidation of
the account would prove unfavourable to her interests, or
whether from any other motive, recourse was immediately
had to measures of procrastination. A question' of form
was raised, and kept suspended over the whole negotiation.
It was pretended, that as Austria and Prussia had shares
in the distribution of the Polish provinces, they ought also
to name commissioners forming a trilateral commission, which
would render the powersgranted to the Count de Hedouville
insufficient, since he was only accredited to the Polish-Go-
vernment. After lengthened discussions this difficulty was
removed by a convention between Russia and Prussia, to
which Austria acceded on the 23d of October, 1820.
France had then no longer to treat with Poland. The
claims of France applied chiefly to two objects. 1. The
loan for the Duchy of Warsaw, opened in 1811, in Paris.
The capital was 1'2,000,000 francs, divided into 12,000
shares. Of these 7,795 were distributed, the Royal Trea-
sury taking 5,960, the Extraordinary Domain 1,315, the
Administration of the Registry 75, and different private in-
dividuals 445. The capital advanced by France was con-
sequently 7,795,000 francs, to which must be added inte-
rest at 6 per cent., with the chances of premium, as stipu-
lated by the contract for the loan. 2. The reimbursement
of the advances made by France to the Duchy of Warsaw,
either in cash from the Treasury, or in various articles of
ammunition, arms, and clothing, furnished by the Govern-
ment. This second demand is estimated at 30,000,000
francs. Poland on her side claims—l, the arrears of pay
due to her army from France, estimated at. 2,500,000
francs ; 2, supplies made to the French army in pursuance
of contracts entered into by the Duchy, and also by indi-
viduals. This article, which is eVidently exaggerated, has
been stated at between 30,000,000 and 40,000,000 francs,
but may be reduced by more than'nine-tenths."

(From Galignani's Messenger--2d edition.)
The brig Comete,- just arrived at Toulon, from Oran,
announces that the cholera has again appeared in that
town. The hospitals of Bona are filled with patients af-
flicted with intermittent fevers, which have long since pre-
vailed in that town.

The Impartial, of Besancon, of the 22d instant, slates,
that in the course of 1824 no fewer than five hundred per-
sons, farmers and their families, emigrated from the depart-
ment of the Doubs, and principally from the arrondissement
of Moutbelliard, for North America ; and that already
three more families, one of twenty-one persons, another of
thirteen, and a third of eight, have applied for passports
for New York.
It appears from the Marseilles papers of the 20th inst.
' that the cholera is nearly, if not entirely, extinct in that
town. No new case had occurred on the two preceding
days. The total number of cases from the first appear-
ance, on December 6, up to the present tune, is 68, and the
deaths 45.
The arrondissement of St. Quentin has just been en-
riched with a new manufactory, in which beet-root will be
metamorphosed, not into sugar, but into coffee !
We learn from Agen that the new suspension-bridge-
over the Garonne, at Port St. Marie, which has just. been
completed gave way last week, on being charged with a
heavy weight to put it to the proof.
The canal of the Somme, which was commenced a quar-
ter of a century ago, has just been completed. It has cost
30,000,000 f., but the advantages it may procure to com-
merce are immense. On the 17th inst., the brig Robertixe
of 110 tons, entered Abbeville, direct from Cette, ather
cargoes will be shipped at Marseilles, for the same destina-
tion. The Societe Royale d'Emulation of Abbeville, at its
sitting on the 16th inst., resolved that a silver medal should
be given to the Captain of the first vessel, of 200 tons or
upwards, which should arrive laden at Abbeville by this
new canal, and another medal in bronze to the first vessel
of 150 tons that should arrive in like manner.
