PAPAS, AUGUST 2i.

The departure of her Maid'ly the Emprefs, from
Plombieres, has been fixed for this day. She WAS to
roach Nancy.

Mr. TArtot, the Englifh Mini ter, at Caffel, has
arrived at Hanau.

Notwithstanding the great movements of troops
which have taken place in the Autirian dominions,
letters from Vienna, of the 16th of Augult, (late,
that the hope of the continuation of the peace of the
Continent had been, for forno days, gaining ground
in that capital, and that the public funds had, in con-
fequence, experienced a rife.
The following are the names of the ships of the
line, of 74. guns, building upon the flocks, at Ant-
werp :—le Charlemagne, it a (late of forwardness;
l'Anverfois, le Duguefclin, le Commerce de Lyon,
l'Audacienx, le Thefec, le Cefirr, Pinnate, la Ca-
soline frigate, le Favori corvette.
The French privateer the Bellona, of 36 guns, has
taken, in fight of Saint Helena, the linglifit (hip,
the Coldaream, on her way from the South Sea to
London.

The Gilwell, from Bombay, has been alfo taken
by a French frigate. Thefe two prizes are very rich.
A camp is forming near Aleffandri.. At Turin
and Mantua the bakers are preparing bread for
four principal fortreffes in Italy, which ate provi-
fioning.
In confequence of an order of his Kijefly the Em-
peror and King, all reduced Officers are prohibited
from affuming the titles of their former rank, or
wearing regimentals or epaulets.

AUGUST 29.
A fingular idea of the fituation of Europe, would
be formed by a pernfal of the German and Englifh
jouroals. The fir(} reprefent the whole Continent
as engaged in military movements, but add, that
thefe are not for the purpofe of renewing hoftilities,
but inerelydireCted to the objed of the prefervation
of neutrality. It is not eafy to conceive how all the
Continental Powers, having a with to continue neu-
tral, thould place their armies on a war ellablifiament.
,—There is in thefe dilpofitions, and thefe ex-
planations, fomething by which it is impoffible for
any one to be deceived. The Englifh Journals,
more bold, without being more candid, openly
announce an alliance between Great Britain, Auf-,
trig, RutEa, Sweden, and Turkey. If the Emperor ,1
of Germany dare not avow this alliance, how
tomes it that England is fo forward to proclaim it ?
Is it that England, ever faithful to her fyllem, wifhes
to compromife the Houfe of Auftria, to gain her
over to her own views more rapidly than (he defires,
and to provoke againft her the refcntment of the
French people, in the love of giving tile to a con•
tell on the Continent, which may Le the means of
rzmoving to a greater dillance the dangers by which
Great Britain is threatened.
Thus the firfi fruit of this alliance, if it exifts, would
arife out of premeditated perfidy, and, if the alli-
ance does not exift, what motive can induce the
Englifh Journalifts to (peak of it as already arranged?
The French people cannot Puffer themtelv:s to be-
lieve that the Houfe of Auftril, humbled, betrayed,
and abandoned, during the lalt war, by the Cabinzt
of St. James's, will again (hew any e;iii.ofition or any
deference to that overbearing Cabinet. If the French
people then refufe to believe in this alliance, are they
on the ground now Hated, at all to be condemned ?
If the Englilh Journals omit nothing to coniprornife
Autlria, which they perceive nut to be at all forward
in coming into their views, they talk more confident
ly of Rua', which appears more favourably difpofed.
Is it then that the report is confidently circulated
that 80,0c,0 Rullian troops are to be in Mr. Pitt's
p2y ?—lt is unfortunate for Ruffia, whi.:h has always
ihewn a great delire to attain confideration among
the nations of Europe, not to have paid more atten-
tion to the reprefentations of French writers. They
would have indifputably proved that the power which
places its troops in the pay of another, can only be
conlidered in a fecondary light, and perhaps the Ern-
perm' Alexander will witnefs the Ibame of allowing
himfelf to defcend from the high rank which his an.
Ceflors enjoy: 1, to at a part unworthy of that dig-
nity and confideration to which the Empire be go-,
verns has .. right to afpire. An Emperor to the pay
of a nation of Ihopkeepers, conveys nn idea of thole
times when the title of Emperor correfponded to that
of Mailer of the World. France remains tranquil at
the rumour of the armed neutralities of the Conti-
nent, and the alliances of England. If in the midli
of the moil afflieling divilions the was able to refit
the whole of Europe, what could the not now do,
when firong in the union of all her members, and
after having entrufled the care of her profperity to a
chief who can find no enemy throughout Europe
by whom his genius is not admired?----journal de

Letters from Martinique inform us, that the town
of St. Pierre is the emporium of the Weft India
Mande. There were, at die date of the letter, above
12 veffels in the road, and so in the other Wands.
Cultivation was carried to the greatefl puflible degree

guine expeaation.

AUGUST 3t.
The Emperor has Wiled a decree, by which it is
among other things ordered, that the 30,000 con-
fcripts, which, according to the decree of the trh
January, were to join die army, and the 3u,000.
which were to be called out when it fhould he thought
neceflary to raife the war ellahlifhment, !hall be cal-
led out into aZtual fervice. The regulations for ef-
feding this augmmtation are very firid, and are to
be enforced by fevere penalties.

This decree, as well as the removal of 30,000 men
from the camp on the coati towards Germany, mull
excite apprehenfions that the peace of the Continent
is about to be ditturbed. It has even been already
Rated, that Czmitt Cosa NTZE t. was recalled, and had'
fet out from this city on his return to Vienna, but
that report was falfe. It was occalioned by the
newfpapers having announced the marching of
French troops to the Rhine and Italy.
The report of the commencement of hoftilities on
the Continent continues. It is afrerted, that two di-
vifions ha* already left the camp on the coal!,
which is broken up ; that Marfhal Snvt.T is gone
from Boulogne to Strafburg, to at as the Emperor's
Lieutenant over the army colletling there, which
his Majelly is to command in p:rfon ; and lattly,
that MASSE!ea has declined the command of the
army in Italy.

We learn from Italy that for about a month pail
confiderable movements have taken place among the
French troops in Upper Italy. They are collecting
along the Chiefa, and a camp is forming at Monte
Chiaro.

Letters from Genoa, dated the loth Rate, that on
the day before a very bra cannonade was heard
there, which was believed to prcceed from an attion
between the fquadron commanded by jcßoste Bo
NAPAII TE and fome Engin miters. No certain ac.
counts had then been received at Genoa, but it was
reported, that the Engin fhips had been chafed, and
that the French fquadron had purfued its courfe to-
wards Toulon.

Letters from Strafbargh Rate, that the French
Ambafrador at Vienna had delivered in a Note to
the Au!lrian Cabinet, demanding the col.jeCt of the
warlike preparations he obferved in the Antirian do-
minions, but that he had received an trofatisfaClory
anfwer. On the other hand it is reported, that the
Court of Autiria has intimated that all the ncgcci-
ations between it and Rutlia had fur their °Nal the
placing the two countries in a Rate of armed neutra-
lity. It appears, however, that the Aultrian regi-
ments, which were to form a camp at Budweis, in
Bohemia, have unexpeetedly received orders to
march to Erms, in Upper Aultria, where they will
make part of a very large encampment. The regi-
ments of Manfredini and Jofeph Colleredo, which
belonged to the Bohemian troops, have already ar-
rived in Uper Außria.
According to accounts from Naples, the damage
done by the late earthquake amounts to 240 millions
of francs.

The 3bn/tear, alluding to an article which appear.
ed in an Englifh paper refpdling the language ufed
by thatiournal on the fubjeet of the battle of the aid,
admitting the account of the engagement to be more
moderate than what was commonly flat* by the
official journal, has the to:lowing note :
" Softly, Gentlemen, 10E4 ! We never pretended
that in one day, rale month, or one year, we Ihould
be able to wtell frum you the empire of the kas.—
We, in the mean time, exercife and inftruCt ouifelves
—you have been fought by our cruizers, which were
menaced and attacked. The frigate la Ville de Mi•
lan has taken the Cl:epatra. The higate Top..ze
has taker. the Blanche. The corvette la !dui' on has
taken two brigs ; and our flotillas have put your
cruizers to flight. In a word Admiral CALDER tied
difmayed, mauled, leaving fifteen (hips lagging be-
hind, and unable to renew the enFac*ement. It mull
be granted then that this is no bad beginning.".'
