This morning we. received Gamarz and .Dutch
.papersi the former to !he 30th ult. and the latter
too the sth inst. The following are their cOn,

PARIS,, DEC. 30.—The English Papers are filled
with accounts of the festivals giveti to the Persian,

4rnhatsador, who, however he is styled., is neither
more nor less than an Officer of the Household of
the Governor of IsaPlian.. His name is NIAHOMED
HussEr&, and he is not invested with any public
char-at-ter. He was merely sent to En .gland by the
Governor on account of some commercial relations,
which he entertains with respe& to the English
East India Company. Mr. ADAIR, however, re 7
ceived him in Constantinople as a man of -vast_ im-
portance, and in London he met with distin&ion,
for which he must himself be at a loss to account.

The day before yesterday the Legislative Body
held au extraordinary sitting, when the projet of a
Senatus Consultum came 'under' consideration, by
which ii is intended to prolong the present SL;sion
to the 3 1 st of Deceinber. •

M. Orro, French Minister at the Court of Ba-
varia, has received his appointment as French
bassador at Vienna, and is already making the ne-
cessary arrangements for his departure' for the
Austrian capital.

BANKS OF THE ELBE, Dce. 29.-The posts from.
Austria, Germany, Russia, Holland, and all France,
have not arrived this evening. It is rumoured that
a French corps of 40,000 men will occupy the
Duchy of Holstein, to prevent all trade with Eng-
land, direEtly or indireffly. The Prince of AuGus-
TENEURQ; who is to succeed the now reigning Mo-
narch of Sweden, is a bachelor, and not likely to
give any successor to the Swedish Crown, as he is
said to be averse to the married state.

Dgc. 13.—The following publication
has appeared here :
" With real grief I see the stand of the, course
of the bank notes on the Exchange of Vienna.
Indeed, the influx of paper money since the con-
clusion of the peace,
.and the great and sadden
circunistances of the times, could not but add Much
to this stand ; but it is the extravagant anxiety of
some, as well as the love of lucre of a few, that in
a great measure occasioned the disproportioned di-
minution of its value.. The soul of the credit of
the* State, is the confidence of the nation in its
`strength. This confidence in the Austrian Mo-
narchy is firmly founded on the multitUdei of the
mortgages of State, free from all burdens ; -on the
fertility of this soil, or on its natural produ9s ; on
the flourishing state of its industry, whiCh notwith-
standing so many years war, has uncommonly risen,
and still continue to rise.

The queStioo now is, the nature of the choke
of weans to revive the credit of the State,. the fixing
of these, as•well. as tie firm foundatiOn. of the fi-
nances; these are the chief end of my most strenu-
ous efforts; but it is cl6r that ibis choice requirei
;time, since ,not all measures, but only serviceable
ones, are to be taken.

My nation knows that forcible measures, which
operate destruetively on private property, are foreign
to, me, and that it is my most solicitous wish to unite
the general good with individual prosperity,;

" I depend that my subjeds will not listen to the
insinuation of fear and distrust, and will really bring
forth the dangers which they only fear, by an
inconsiderable application of paper money, which
would be immediately ruinous to them, in order to
procure heavier value, but that they build strongly
on my efforts, and the resources of the country, and
thus. wait the period of amelioration with firmness.
Only to efforts indispensably necesary, and not ex-
ceeding. their strength, I shall summon my sub-
jeds. Confidence in the Government, alive co-
operation in the measures proposed by the la?ter,
after mature deliberation, these qualities, wh:ch my
faithful people have always proved, will surely bring
on that period.

" Prcsburgh, Dec. tr.

FLIANCTS,
(Manu propriu)."

BOTZEN, DEC. 12—The publican HOFER is still
alive, and keeps himself concealed in the valley of
Passeyer. He has designedly caust-2d the rumour of his
death to be circulated; to save his life, he was. ob-
liged to publigi the proclamation by which he calls
the Tyrolians to arms again. His most faithful ac-
complices forced him to this step with daggers and
clubs. His is usually the fate of those who attempt
to act so perilous a part.
Our fertile fine country on 'the Adige resembles
in many places La Vendee. General BAR 4ouAy
'D'Huttetis has, in other respeds, given strict or-
ders to his soldiers to use rigour only where clemen-
cy finds no admission. His spouse, formerly Coun-
tess of HARDENBERG, born at Vienna, is also here.
The French keep the whole high read between this
place and Inspruck strongly occupied, and it is now
quite covered with waggons with, goods. Single
travellers may pass on without danger.
INSPRUCK, Dec. 1 4.--By official,advices, says our
Gazette, order and tranquility are entirely restored
to the districts of Brixen and Botzen. The banditti,
who had for some time rendered the roads utisate
there, had suffered a total defeat. Many of these
• hordes, abandoned by their Chiefs, and 'detested by
their own countrymen, now come to crave the cle-
mency of the Military Commanders. Those Chie':i

of the insurgents, who escaped with the outcast of
all. nation's, went to the Pusterthal, but here they
were again defeate,l, near Sonnenburgh, and there
is no doubt bat they will fall into the hands of the
troops who pursue them. A reward of 200 florins is
o' tiered for the apprehension of HASER and Koss,
who try again to kindle the fire of rebellion. The
Prince Bishop of 'BRIXEN has published a pastoral
letter, to restore and maintain order and tranqui-
lity.
ST. PRTERSBURGH, DEC. 2.—• By an Ukase of the
29th 06.1ober, the prohibition of the exportation'of
Corn from the Ports of the Baltic and the White Sea
is withdrawn, and corn may be exported at certain
fixed taxes.

VIENNA, DEC. 16.—0 n the 14th .the Emperor
'returned hither from Presburg.

'Some advices say that several. English ships of
war have appeared off Odessa

Count MLTTERNICII, Minister for Foreign
Affairs, is arrived here.

At Constantinople several Festivals had been pre-
pared, on account of advantages gained in the field,
near Stlistria.

BANKS ON THE ELBE, DEC. 29.—On Christmas.
evening, the strange news of NAPOLEON'S divorce
from JOSEPHINE reached Hamburgh, and naturally
excited ►he greatest astonishment. The conjedures
upon whom his new choice may fall are endless.
Some say he Will take the Queen of Holland, who
is also to be divorced from her Royal Consort;
others name the Princess of Saxony ; others again
mention a Grand Duchess of Russia as the
newly intended bride ; and some persons pre-
tend to have received private letters which hint
that a French young lady is the object of the
fickle NAPOLEON'S ,new passion. All persons,
however, agree that it is cruel he should have re-
pudiated, after an union of 15 years, the woman to
whom he owes his elevation, and all he is. The
Viceroy of Italy is, we learn, also to lose his
adoption, and the right of succeeding to the
Throne of Italy. After his capricious Ex-
Father's death, he is to receive another diadam.—
The Ex-Queen JOSEPHINE has received as a pre-
sent the Palace of Laken, near Brussels, in the
neighbourhood of which her old friencl,BAßßAs still
continues. to reside in disgrace.

ROTTERDAM, JAN. 4.—Letters from Hamburgh,
of the' 25th of last month, state, that all goods
which are dispatched from Tonningen must' be I ur-
niihed with certificates of origin. The- Paris letters
of the. 3 st of December, contain no news of any
description.

BERLIN, DEC. 26.—Last Saturday, at one
o'clock in the afternoon, the ringing of bells and
discharge of cannon announced the arrival of their
Majesties the King and Queen. His Majesty was
on horseback, attended by his Rdyal Brothers, and
surrounded by the horse *and foot guards.
On Satt7,l3y Te Deum was sung in all the
churches of this capital.
On the 3d inst. the French Ambassador, Count.
of St. MARZEN, had his first audience of the King
and Queen, and presented his credentials.
Colonel KIWZEMARK, who lately returned from
Paris, whither he was sent on a particular mission
from our Sovereign, is, we understand, to proceed
again to the French metropolis, where his stay is
likely to be longer than the last time.
VIENNA, DEC. 20.—Our Court Gazette contains
the following article :

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 10.—On the Ist of No-
vember the thunder of cannon from Tophana an-
nounced to us a viEtory, gained on the 2i?dof Oc-
tober, not far from Silistria, over the Russian army
\besieging that fortress. The battle, according to
the advices received from the Grand Vizier, lasted
from early in the morning till night, and the Rus-
sians, who made their attack along the whole line
of the Turkish aerny, consisted of more than 10,000
men. Both armies fought principally with the
sword, and the fortune of the day was decided by
the coming up of MUCTAR PAcuA, in the critical
moment, with his Albanian cavalry.

The Russians, after the battle, retired to their
entrenched camp before Silistria Two days before,
the garrison
,had made a sally, and killed about I'm)
men of the besiegers.

On the Bth of November, the Porte received from
the Grand Vizier a more circumstantial account ofa
general anion which took place between the two
armies, in which the Russians suffered a defeat and
were obliged entire!y to evacuate the right bank of
the Datiube, tliat is to say, with their infantry,
which passed that river at Husora, while the cavalry
which covered the retreat had no other way, as the
Turks had broken down the bridge, but the road to
Babadag, and to pass the Danube near Mataschin,
This cavalry was however closely pursued by the
Turks, who at the time the dispatches of the Grand
Vizier came away, had already taken many prison-

VIENNA, DEC. 20.—This day the French evacu-
ate the '.:!role of Lower, Austria, and some latta,lions.

of Austrian troops, principally grenadiers, are to-day
expected in Vienna.

LAMBERG, Nov. 2 I.—The Russian troops in East
Gallicia have already begun their march -back
through this city, and we hope soon to receive an
Austrian garrison.

. .
WE have submitted to our readers the last
re-
ports respeaing the unfortunate event's which have
taken place in the Madras. Settlement, but as no
oXlicial accounts have been received by Government;
these reports should be received with great caution
It seems, however, on all hands to 'be admitted,
that the chief agents in the mutiny were the sub_
ordinate Officers in the Coast Army, and therefore
we hope it will appear that the troops in general
were soon aware of the danger into which they had
been led, and had. returned to a sense of duty, wall-
out the necessity of resorting to those dreadful but
indispensable means which would have been pbt in
force against them.

Several of the private letters yesterday received
from the Continent, contain a report that BUONA-.
PARTE has consented to rescind the substance of the
Berlin Decree. A Gentle can who has just arrived
from France, confirms this account. We, of course,
cannot pledge ourselves for the fact; but if it be true,
it will effect a considerable change in our Commer-
-631 Relations. The following is one of the letters
to which we allude :

" PARIS, JAN. I.—The merchants have lately
had several conferences with the Ministers of his Im-
perial Majesty, on the present state of affairs; .and
have submitted to them, that trade has, since. the
Berlin and Milan Decrees, taken quite a new direc-
tion, and is carried on by very circuitous routes,
and by persons disavowed by the real merchants.
" The Ministers announcedo hat his Majesty's in-
tention was, that Neutrals might trade freely with
France, and France with Neutral Countries; that the
above-mentioned 'Decrees had been pointed only
against the commerce of England ; and that, if they
have been misinterpreted, and a false meaning given
to them, the merchants should make representations,
which would be favourably heard. •

It already .appears to be agreed, that the visit at
sea, a measure of policy adopted by -all nations, is
not a violation of neutral rights, and that the De-
cree of Milan was intended only to prevent the visit
dire&ed by the Orders of council, of Nolembar
1807; by which Neutrals were obliged to go to
England, and there pay a tribute. It is also under-
stood, that the embargo and provisional sequestra-
tion of American vessels in France, were in conse-
quence of the Embargo Law of America, followed
by the Nonontercourse AEI; that we therefore
considered the Americans, who came inlo. our
ports as disguised Englishmen; and that since A merit
has repealed her laws, our should fall of them-
selves.

" The merchants flatter themselves, from theie
communications, and from the news lately tecei‘ed
that America ‘t as not disposed to yield to England,
that the political relations betw,en the tl/4“) coun-
tries, tor the establishrf,ent of perfect harmony, will
become active; and as,it seems that bath nations
have a well pronounced intent in their success, they
will probably agree on some pruvisional basis, and
permit trade to resume its telationF, reserving the
ulterior d;scussion on tie great question of maritime'
rights."

Lord BERNARD moves the Address to his Majesty
on the first day of the Session, and Mr. PEELS, sou.
to Sir RORER-T, seconds it.

The East Kent, Nottingham, and East Kent Re-
giinents of Militia, that were lately removed into the
interior of the country, to make roi,m for the, sick
lately returned from Wolcheren, will shortly be or-
dered to resume their duty on the.coast.
The Buckinghamshire Militia are now billetted
on the town of Yarmouth, ther barracks being oc-
cupied by the sick.
Upwards of one hundred ships arrived yesterday
from Holland. By a Captain who left Amsterdam
on the tith instant, we kart' that King
.Louis luta
atrived, but not a syllable had transpired as to any
Imperial Mandue, respeaing the incorporation of
Holland with •Frinxe. The return of Louis to his.
&mini ,ns was considered an ansdicious omen, and.
bad dirful.:d general joy, as hopes being in conse,
quence indulged, that the in&pendence of a &isi-,
derable portion of the Dutch territories would be-
preserved.

A WALKING MATCH.—On Wednesday a jour-
neyman taylor, tiaintd Macdonald, a native of In-
verness, iindertimk, for a wager of ten guineas, to.
walk from towil to Chathain, and back ar,r):!H, in,
the space of 15 hours, being a Oist.ince of trai-l!
miles. This dirninuine pedestrian, after strippit
off his shoes and stockin,:a, st‘we,,i from 'Westmin-
ster Brtdge at six o'clock in the mnrning, and a
1 We before one rea, hed Chatham, where, atter re-
maining a tew and taking some refresh-
ments, he again set off on his return, and arrived.
in town at 20 minutes pas! eight, being 40 minutes
within the tme alloAed him. He intends shortly
to undertake another journey to a much greater
distance, on which there are bets to a considerable
amount depending amongst his fraternity.
