LONDON, •
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 12, 1318.

We teceired this morning the Paris. P4pers of
Sunday last„ The Moniteut contains ek Royal Or-_
donnance of considerable length,.for regulating
the administration the gunpowder and salt pets e
establishments. The following are extracts :
" PARIS, AUG. 9.—The King transacted busi-
ness yesterday with the Duke de Richelieu.
" The Duchess of Brunswick "intern was yes-
terday presented to Madame and the Princes.

" T!►.e Duke of Gloucester visited Rochelle 'a
few days since. His Royal Highness callvd at
the house of the Lieutenant-General-Command,
ant of the Division, and announced 'himself as a
superior English Officer, who did not wish to pass
near Rochelle without landing and paying a, visit
to the General in Command. lie was received.by..
the Governor with the greatest politeness anti
courtesy, and the rank of the august traveller be?
ing soon discoveted, the General requested per

mission to accompany him in his promenade, ant
invited • the Duke to dinner, which •his Rona
Highnrss•dccepted. His Royal Highness set.Ou'

the same evening at half past six. He was to
visit Rochefort on. the 4th instant, and then pro-
ceed to, Bourdeaux.

" The excessive beat recently iseerieneed has
given rise to' several meterological observations
of some interest. It is remarkahle that .the heat

has been nearly equal throughout Europe under
all latitudes. The thermometers at Rome, at
Berlin, at Madrid, at Vienna, at 'Marseilles; and
at London, being very nearly at the same height.

" M. Rothschild, Banker of Paris, has hired
an hotel at Aix-la-Chapelle, at the rate of 250
francs, (101. Gs. Bd.) per day.
" Mr. Baring arrived some days since at Paris.

" NUREMBERG, AUG. 1.--Letters from Bohemia
announce the arrival of the Count de Capo d'lstria
at Carlsbad. He will remain there unt it the ar-
rival of his August Sovereign the Emperor of
Russia, whom he will accompany to the Con-
gress of Aix-la•Chapelle.

COPENHAGEN, JULY 2s.—Their Majesties,
and the two Princesses their daughters, arrived,
in the evening of the 25th inst., at the chateau
of Fredericksberg, on their return from their
journey in Holstein.

" lIAMBURGII, JULY 28.—An English slip

from Greenland states baring met the North
Pole expedition near Spitzbergen, in lat.. 79. Bi.
ail the crev'i were in the best health. Captain
Kotiebne, who luis by this time arrived at Cron-
stadt, was unable to penetrate, on the side of
Behrings. Straits' beyond 70. where he was
stopped by a rampart of ice. Lie was not able
to .donble either Cape Szalatzki in Asia, or Icy

Cape, in America.
" The last Russian Charts indicate, that, ac-
cording to obsenations made on the spot, New
Siberia is not a Continent, but a group of three
large Islands, wVich extendsto 77°, and beyond
which tvas an Icy Sea. This circumstance Kerns
to confirm the hypothesis that Greenland is mere-
ly a large Island, that Baffins Bay is open to the
North, and that there is no Continent at the
Pole. According to the Russian Charts, the
Coasts of Siberia have been hitherto placed a little
too much to the North."

The Letter from our Correspondent at Paris
received this day, gives a strange account of the
Tascillßting and uncertain state of the French Go-
vernment. As it appears to be determined that

the Allied Troops shall he rcwoved from France,
We hope that the predictions of our Correspon-

;on
dent win be ye; Hied ;1, tbe consequent intr°`)'lctio
of a more stable Government, and improved Pe-

and happiness among the people.

But considering the ease with which they ais:

ptoballe that no Hide delicacies will interfell

But, according to zhe"Stat....ment respecting
111% ARBUTHNOT, there seems to he no crime
which the American (i4Overnment would not per-
)'etrate in order to gratify 'its ambitious views.
Yet the ambition of the A rucrican Government is
~Otlikely to he confined to the seizure of Spanish
ar Iridittit Territory, for it has long been 'evident
141 it is preparing such a formidable military
and naval Power as will enable it to coin-
Inence an attack on the /British Settlements,
43 soon as it conceives that it has strength"
lufficient to accomplish the puipOse. We have
thought it our ditty frOm time to time to draw
tl)Cattention of Ministers to this subject, on which
°ur commercial importance in so great a degree
depends ; and we have also laid before the Public
authentic documents winch justify our remarks,
and which, unless vigorous measures are adopted,
'I'M lead to events that are likely to fulfil the
Voorniest predicr ions.
