FRENCH PAPERS.

PARIS, AUGtiST 9.—We read in a German
Journal that BUONAPARTE left three remarkable
letters, addressed—one to a great Monarch ; the
second to the Archduchess Maria Louisa, his
wife; and the third to the Duke of Reichstadt,
his son. The same paper adds, that the last
words which he pronounced were the following :
—" I die with the experience of a thousand
years, and with the sentiment of an instant."

FRENCH NAVY.
According to the report Which his Excellency the NI inister of
Marine presented to theChomber in the last Session, and which
has now been distributed arriong the Members, it appears that
76 vessels were equipped at the commencement of this year, and
distributed among the stations which the interest of commerce,
the repression of the slave trade, and of contrahand, render ne-
cessary to be occupied at the Antilles, in the Galph of Mexico,
at Cayenne, at Newfoundland, on the coast of Africa, at the
Isle of Bourbon, in the Levant, and the Mediterranean, both for
protecting our cornmunicati6ns with Corsica, the states of Italy,
and the • regencies of Barbary and the coral fishery. Other
vessels were destined for ..the .coasts. of America in the two
oceans. They; will appear before the forts of Chili and Peru,
and on the points inclnded between the Rio-de-la-Plata and the
mouth of the Cronoko. . They wilLthiss protect, in the coun-

Our communications with the Colonies of the Weseindies
'will be maintsined by- vessels, which both is going to thtir sta-
tion and returning, will cruise in every direction where it is use-
ful to show. the 1 rench lag. These 76 vessels, manned by
10,000 mariners, and armed with 1,029 cannons, are composed
of 3 ships of the line, I i frigatess6 corvettes, 9 brigs, 13 gal-
liots, 3 bombs, 7 sloops, 21 inggets, and 3 transports. Accord-
ing to this statement the maritime power of France will be re-
presented in the four quarters of the woill by 33 armed ships,
or which are capable of making themselves respected. It
would be desirable that the Minister of Marine should make.
known by means of the journals, at different ssasons of the
year, the situation of the squadrons destined to protect our
commercial navy. This knowledge would effectually contribute
to give security to owners and captains who arc proceeding to
countries far distant and little frequented.

VIENNA, JULY %.9.—Mre have received news
of a recent date from the Archipelago and the
Peieponnesus. A government of the islands has
been effectually orgini7cd 'at Eydra. All the
inhabitants are making the greatest exertions and
personal sacrifices to sha!te off the Turkish voke.
Forts are constructing on several of the Greek
islands, and the works abandoned by the Turks
have also been restored.

In Bulgaria the insurgents are organized as
guerillas, and incessantly harrass the Turks.
NUREMBERG, AUGUST 3.—The letters received
this day from Vienna are all warlike. A courier
extraordinary, it is said, has been sent to Count
de Wittgenstein, commanding- the army of the
South, to enter Moldavia. We expect with great
impatience the particulars of the passage of the
Pruth, which a Russian division has effected,
after haying fought a well-contested battle with
a part of the troops under Juisuf Pacha.
The Austrian troops in Transylvania and the
Bannat have received a part of their reinforce-
ments : other regiments from Bohemia are to join
them by forced marches.

Lord Walpole haA had several conferences
with Prince Metternich. It is supposed that,
notwithstanding the importance of the mission
confided to him, he will not be able to effect a
change in the course of policy adopted by the
Cabinet of Vienna, in the differences between
the Ottoman Porte and Russia.

FRANNFOR';', Aug. A.-lit was 'reported at
Vienna on the 28th ult., that the Grand Signior
had formlly rejected the Uitifiuctum of Russia.
We expect every moment to hear that hostilities
have commenced.

BERLIN, JULY 31.—The Government has just
authorised the Censorship to permit the free cir-
culation of ~vriting-s in favolir of the cause of the
Greek insurgents.

import duties on woollen cloth, and other British
woollen manufactures, contrary to the Ordinance
of the Council of Fin-once, dated the 28th- Sept.
1313, and contrary- to. the express stipulationS of
the .26th Article of the Treaty of Commerce of
the 10th of February, 1810, between Portugal

Article of the same Treaty, relative to the im-
portation of the raid woollen cloths, and other
British woollen manufactures, and left in full
vigour, with respect to 0-le!ie goods, the stipula-

as follows :

" 1. The Resolution of the sth May, 1814, is
revoked, and the 26th skrticle of the Treaty of
Commerce of the 19th Febr;iary, 1810, is re-

consequence the woollen cloths and other Bri-
tish woollen manufactures, which are imported

portation the duties of 30 per cent. which they
paid before and some years after the said treaty.
" 2. The present Decree shall receive its due

place after a sanguinary engagement, in which
the Insurgent corps hail been totally routed.—
'Other accounts, however, only say that it had
evacuated the city in conseouence of the near
approach of supe;'ior forces. From every state-
ment, llo•-vever, it appears that the sudden move-
ment which enabled General BERMUDEZ to ob-
tain temporn-y possesion of Caraccas, was an
operation of great daring, conducted with con-
summate skill through diFicu!t roads in the vici-
nity of a large army, and was attended with all
the success which that officer probably anticipated.

LONDON,
MONDAY, AUGUST 13, 182 L

From the intelligence contained in the Paris
Journals of Thursday and Friday, which ar-'
rived this morning, there is every reason to sup-
pose that hostilities have commenced between
Turkey and Russia. Advice of the formal re-
jection by the Grand Signior of the Ultimatum of
Russia is said to have been received at Vienna;
orders had in consequence been dispatched to,
the Russian army to enter Moldavia, and the
utmost impatience prevailed in the Austrian ca-
pital to learn the particulars of the passage of.
the Pruth, which the Russians, it was rumoured
had effected, after encountering a strong opposi-
tion from the army under JT3SUF PACIIA, It
has been some time generally believed that Au-
stria would take an active part with Russia
against the Turks ; and it now appears. that all
the efforts of Lord WALPOLE to detach her iron'.
this alliance are not likely to meet with any suc-
cess. It was likewise reported, last week, that
a treaty had been concluded between two Great
Northern Powers, meaning cr Russia and Prussia, to -
effect the liberation of the reeks; and this report
is confirmed by an article from Berlin, which stato
that the Government has authorized the Censor-
ship to permit the free circulation of writings
favour of the cause of the Greek insurgents.
The accounts of the progress made by the Greeli.s
in the Morea and nei,ghbouring provinces, and of
the arrangements they are entering into to pro'
mote the establishment of their independence 011
a firm and systematic basis, are extremely gratify-
ing.--In our extracts will be found an interestifig
report on the state of the French Navy.

A Letter from Curacoa, dated the 20th of June, says, "
true that the Royalists have re-occupied LaTaira ; but it is et
pected that they will be soon driven out again, as the Patriou~
threes were concentrating, and when united will compose 141
army of 18,000 choice troops, commanded by BOLIYA%
PAEZ, BERMUDEZ, and URDANETTA.—A general bstt`,.„
is expected, and as the Royalists will have an inferior force, t""
event cannot be doubtful.—The Old Spaniards are en bariOn4
several vessels have sailed foi the purpose of bringing then c`"
with their property."
A Letter received at New York from Buenos Ayres, (bite'',
the 12th of May, states that country to be still in a del"°„.-
able condition. The Indians continued to collect in groat °l",:e
bars in the interior. A large body of them, it is said, -vre
about 30 leagues from the city, committing great.depredatiert
murdering the Whites and destroying the cattle. CARRE",i4

asserts, t
" the QUEEN'S Household and her E.xecul°rf-

JESTY'S remains." This assertion is a plain PO.ni.
that the Paper alluded to really knows nothl'T,
of her MAJESTY'S expressed wishes, or the fel:e_
ings of her Household. We stated, from
rity, on Saturday last, " that the object of
