It FruaLic.

Citizens—ln accepting the heavy burthen with
which I have been loaded, I cannot certainly dif-
femble how much it is fuperior to my arength ;
but I have felt too fenfibly the duty of obeying
him who impofes it to refute paying, by a facrifice
of my whole ezifience to my country, a tribute
which I owed to the confidence I have been ho-
noured with at all times by my fellow citizens.—
This valuable confidence, the zeal and talents of
my fellow labourers, the counfel and fupport of
the man who guides us in our important funtions,
are the only motives that infpire me with courage
to affume it.

TO THE COMMITTER OF GOVERNMENT.
You, Citizens, who governed the Republic
under circumftances fingularly difficult, have rea•
fon to refer to time, the impartial judge of men
and things, the care of pronouncing refpe&ing
thole with which your name is affocrated. This
day the provfional Government ceafes, and gives
place to the Conflitutional Government. The
order of things is changed ; but the ezample of
pall revolutions will not be ufelefs, and will terve
as a leifon in future.

TO CITIZEN FONTANA, PRESIDENT OF TICE LIGISLA.

TIVE CONSULTA.
And you, whom long and ufeful years and great
svifdom, render one of the brighteft ornaments of
the Republic, to the wilhes which you exprefs for it
with fo much interett,join alto your fervices. Recal-
led that it is to you, and fuch as you,that the molt
important Magiftracy,that of opinion,is entrufted:
I milled and uncertain, it never had more need of
wife Counfels to be diretted in fuch a manner as
to cure the immenfe evils which hitherto have af.
flitted humanity. Teach mankind that no happi.
nets is to be hoped for in injuftice and corruption :
reprefent to them that where there are neither mo-
rals nor morality, there can be no true glory or
kiting profperity.
Dicalx.—The Vice-Prefident of the Republic,
with the advice of the Legiflative Council, decrees

bufinefs, the prefent Minifters, the Conftituted Au.

vitionally remain in their offices till anew determi-
, nation. (Signed) MaLzi, Vice-Prefident.
Valais*, Fas.l3.—The fon of the. unfortunate
Pacha of Belgrade, animated by a ftrong deGre to
avenge the death of his father, and at the fame
time to fill his place, is, according to reports, if
they are to be believed, at the head of fix thou-
(and men. The janizaries on the other hand, fo
far from being intimidated by this threatening en-
terprife, have marched againft him with eighty
ftandardr. Expettation is excited about the ifrue
of thefe combats in that part of Europe, which at
this moment alone exhibits any appearance of war.
There hoftilities would be more decifive, if, as has
been reported fome time ago, the CAPTAIN RECIIA
went up the Danube for the purpofe of fubduing
the rebels in Belgrade, having under his orders a
number of g Nib& officers. This expedition ap-
pears worthy of the rival of the Grand Vizier, and
the defeat of the European rebel would form a fort
of counterpoife to the fubmiffion of the Beys in
Egypt by the firll minifter of the Porte, and would
thus preferve that -equilibrium of glory, and of in-
fluence fo neceliary in Turkey, to tilde who fiU the

STOCKHOLM, FEB. 1.-A piece of intelligence,
which has caufed a great fenfation in this capital
and at Court, has been publifhed in feveral of the
German Journals refpeding Swedith Pomerania,
viz. that of its having been offered for fide.—
Whatever may be the ftate of our finances, we do
not think that qur Monarch will ever be reduced
to the neceflity of parting with one of his fineft
provinces, and from which he has lately derived
fo great advantages. It was from the ports of
Swedifh Pomerania alone that we were able to
procbre provifions during the late fcareity in the
North 6t Europe; all the other places in the Baltic
being (hut againft our veirels.
