The Mellinger who brought the Ffench
patches, noticed in our laft, was landed at Deal, ac•
companied by two Officers. After flopping a very
Ikon time for refrefhment at the Three Kings, in Deal,
they proceeded to London. They mutt have reached
town on Friday night ; but as the fame fccrecy which
marked the laft communication from M. Tat.t.tv.
BAUD continues to be obferved, nothing relative to
the fubftance of the difpatches, or objett of their mil:
Son, has tranfpired. They have, in all probability,
been charged with an anfwer to the letter fent by Mr.
Secretary Fox to the French Miniller for Foreign
Affairs on the night of Friday fe'nnight.

Since our laa we have received Paris papers to the
23d, and Dutch to the 29th inft.
The report of the Dutch Government having de-
clared itfelf Bankrupt is unfounded.—Tmmorrow,
we believe, will decide the fate of Holland. Their
High Mightineffes have been convoked for that day,
when it is probable the intended change in the Go-
vernment will be announced to them. We (hall fee
whether any one of them will have energy enough to
protell againft the political extinetion of his country.
A letter from Naples of the 28th February, in the
Batavian State Gazette, flates, that both the Cala•
brigs have fuhmitted to the French, having been pre-
rioufly evacuated by the Neapolitan troops. The re-
port of the Englifh and Ruffian troops having landed
in Calabria, to affill the Hereditary Prince and his
army, was. as we rape/led, probably unfounded.
Reports prevail on the Continent, that Swedifh
Pomerania is to be ercupied by Pruffia, and that, in
cafe of a refufal of his Pruffian Maissrr, a French
corps will take pc:lll4Eon of it. We have no doubt,
that come prlporal to this eLreah2s been made to the
Court of Betlin. Will it be acceded to? Will Pruffia
hazard a war with ?

Private letters by the laa mail dam.: Gim• light on
this bufinefs. A demand is Rated to have been made
at the. inßance of Martha' Barnette, that the Au-
titian Cabinet (ball permit French troops to march
through Bohemia. The purpofe of demanding that
pert:l;lEon is fuppofed to be to attack the Ruffians
ifferubled in Poland. The Court of Vienna was a

Fgood deal embarraffel by the demand. General
STUTTEIIIIII4 was fent to Martha 821111111 if pof.
fible to elude the propofil, for it is raid that the
Court of Vienna is afraid to give a direet refufal.—
The refult of the negociation is not yet known. It is
Paid M. de Nom Lt.ss infilled that, in the prefent cir-
currillances, the Court of Vienna fliould not keep on
foot more than 100,000 men.
But if we credit the flatements in the French
Papers, the different powers interefled in the iffue of
there arrangements mull have come to forne general
underflanding. The Mon:ttur of the 23d Rates, that
the French Army is to be reduced to the Peace Efts-
blifhment on the ft) day of .efitri/, (fame fools may
credit this), and that before the end of the enfuing
month, all the troops, which are now defolating and
devouring Germany, will have paned the Rhine.
This information may have fometbing confoling in
it for the countries immediately affected by the pre-
fence of the French armies, but we are not faaguine
enough to draw any pacific omens from it, as far
as refpeas ourfelves. It may be doubted whether
this peace eftablifhment will diminifb the grofs num-
ber of BONAPARTI'II army by a tingle demi brigade.
ft will be found, we believe, to amount to no more
than this, that the National Guards have been dif.
handed, and that the depots which had been efla-
blithed for receiving and training the extraordinary
levies, have been broken up.
