Letters were received yesterday fret]' the Frencl
Coast to the 4th; lust. BCoNAPARTE, it would seem,
has again trade alterations in his regulations attesting
commerce; and it is now said, that the merchants
may be allowed td trade, without being compelled
to export silks or wines. • Such information has, at
least, been received from the French coast ; but
whether it is entitled to implicit credits we will nut
take upon u. to stale.
The French Government has however notified to,
the merchants of Paris, and of the .other principal
towns, that to prevent the, necessity of a claeclesiine
coirespondence with: England,. all letters sent,ue•
sealed to the Post•otfiee al Paris, addressed to Mer-
chants in England, will be. forwarded conformably
to their address. After this notification, no indul-
gence will be sliewn..,to any person deteaed in a Iri•
.vate correspondence-with England. The evident
reason for this indulgence, if so it may be called,
is, that RUONAPARTE has deemed it necessary 'to
grant a few licenses fur ships to trade with 'Oat:min-
ify under certain conditions; and as this commerce,
limited as it is, necessarily requires some corresp'on•
deuce, he therefore wishes i 'more
completely to be' pieced more
coMpletely under hial:controul, while he at the same
time deprives the merchant of a plea for correspond-,
ing by more private means. - •
Among other measures that have been resorted
to for augmenting the disposable . force .of the cenn-,
try, Government have issued beating orders to the
Adjutants of the Local Militia. They are authorized
to recruit men, either for general service, or for the
artillery of the East India Company, but particular-
ly for sonic of the most distinguished Scots regi-
meets in the service, namely,: the' Ist, or' Soots
Itoyals, the 2 tat, or Royal Scow Ftieileeri, the
:Atli, or Cameronians, the 71st Light Infatitry,
72d, 73d, 74111, and 7,stlfllighlatiders, the pteli, or
