It is with new furprize that we read the long
articles in the Englifh Papers, and the fpeeches of
Members of Parliament about the failing of the
Brea fleet. It is difficdlt to conceive how, at a
moment when we are at peace, how an expedition,
which has failed with the fole objeft of refloring '
tranquillity to St. Domingo, fliould excite any
alarm about the fafety of Jamaica. We cannot
recognize in thefe fpeculations the fentiments of
civilized Europeans, but the fears of the Tartars
of Thibet. For the honour of the civilization of
the prefent age, it is not neceffary furely to make
ourfelves more barbarous and more foolilh than
we really are. There puerile difcuflions, which
only fhew the bad faith of the individuals who
provoke them, are' wholly contrary to the orders
'trued at Breft after the fignature of the Prelimi•
naries of Peace. The Prefeft requiring inaruaions
how to aft, in cafe the fquadron of Admiral Corn-
wallis fhould be forced by arefs of weather to take
refuge in Brea, received for anfwer that he fnould
not only fuller them to enter the harbour, but I
that he fitould take no extraordinary precautions;'
for no greater injury car. be done to civilized Eu-
ropeans than to difcover even the appearance of
fuppofing that condo& poffible which honour and
the rights of nations have rendered without an ex-
ample—Malik:sr.

13 ILLIVIOSI, TM 2.
ireflerday the Legiflative Body refolved, after
due deliberation, to fend a deputation of twenty.
four of its Members to wait upon the Firft Conful.
This deputation was this day introduced at one
o'clock, and Citizen Deviltries, who was nominated
the organ of the Deputation, delivered the follow.
ing fpeech:—" A foreign nation, whole liberty
oi iginated from the exploits of a hero, was anxkus
that its power fhould be creaed under the aufpices
of a Page, and in a city where you went to efface
the remembrance of former mileries, the willies
of the Italian Republic have been fulfilled. Glory
be afcribcd to him who owes his conquelts not left
to the love of his virtues than to the terror of his
arms; who knows not merely to conquer, but to
govern, and whole every thought prepares, and
every aft realizes, tome benefit to humanity !
Happy France, to whom the glory of the Magid.
trate who prefides over her magnificent deflinies
returns. Faithful organ of a people, who entertain
fur you fentiments of the warmed affeaion, united
with feelings of the molt profound veneration, the
Legiflative Body willies to exprefs to you the fin.
timents which it partakes. How pleating it is for
us, in, the midft of that joy which your return uni-
ve: tally inspires, to hare to offer you the tribute
of our fincere congratulations."
The anfwer of the Chief Conful war couched in
the following terms :—" It was at once fuitahle
to the glory and the intereft of France to fecure
for ever the fate of a Republic which originated
under its foftering hand. I hope that the Con&
tution it has received, and the Magiftrates who are
chofen to prefide over it, will promote its happi.
nefs and repofe. This happinels and repofe is by
no means unconncaed with our own. Our prof.
perky can never be feparated from the profperity
of the people who furround us. I have reaped
from my journey the fweeteft recompenfe for the
exertions I have made for the country ; I have
there colleaed, above all, a free and unreftrained
expreffion of the public opinion, in the communi-
cation of the fentiments of individuals, in the fun.
ple language of the merchant, the manufaaurer,
the cultivator of the foil. All require that the Go-
vernment fhould be faithful to the principles which
it has difclofed, and it is on there alone that their
hopes of happinefs are founded. I was already
filled with gratitude for the marks of refpe& and
attachment with which the nation had honoured my
former efforts. I return penetrated with fentiments
of gratitude Rill more deeply imprinted upon my
heart. The devotion of my whole life to the inte.
reds of France would not be diffident to mom-
pence for the emotions which I have felt. I ex-
perience a pleating fatisfaaion in teeing you allo-
cate your willies to thole of the nation."
A Deputation of the Tribunate, at the head of
which was Citizen Del Terre the Prefident, was
this day introduced to the Chief Conful. Citizen
Delpierre (poke as follows :
"Citizen Conful—The Members of the Tribunate
name to exprefs to you by the mouth of their Pre-
dent, the tatisfation which they feel upon your
• ••••••• 4," .114 the re,. nr the et4.0.....1 0.211

teltimonies of confidence, gratitude, and affellion
you have experienced during your journey, and
while you remained at Lyons. The univerfal act
clarnations of a free and enlightened people are the
fweetell recompenfe the Chief Magillrate of a
State can receive for his labours, his folicitudes, and
his fuccefs. Among the praifes which you heard,
a great number, no doubt, were addrelfed to the
viaorious warrior, but be Allred they were chiefly
extorted by the Pacificator, who has re•fettled the
political world upon its foundations, has flopped
the effufion of human blood, has clofed the revo-
lution, and has revived in France, alma' at the
fame inflant, every fpecies of induilry, and all the
caufes of profperity. It is not wonderful that the
author of fuch great benefits, and the objed fo
many hopes, Ihould be invoked by an infant people
as the moderator who will abridge the period, and
foften the inconveniencies of childhood. The at-
tention you are about to bellow upon this new
State is a temporary loan which it makes from the
genius of the French Republic, who, after having
created it by his arms, could not deprive it in its
cradle of the affiflance of his judgment and his
affeetions."

The Cater Comm. replied, That the organi-
zation of the Italian Republic was a facred duty
impofed upon the French people; that he law with
pleafure the principal menihers of the tribunate
cordially unite with the grand authoriti.a t. 11.,
Republic ; that thefe fentiments were necellary to
the happinefs of the people—the only objet worthy
of attention, and in obtaining which true glory
could be acquired. He added, that the Council
of State, and the learned digefters who had pre-
rented the projeft of the Civil Code, would continue
their labours to bring it to perfeCtion, and that he
hoped thefe laws, before the end of the year, would
be laid before the Legiflative Body, in whofe mo-
deration he placed great confidence.
Citisen MAGALLAN, Governor General of the
Ifles of France and Reunion, has publifhed a Pro-
clamation, dated Oftober 5, t Sot, exhorting thofe
under his command to obedience to the Conftituted
Authorities in the Colony, and to fentiments of
filial refpeCt for the mother country. He an-
nounces that his authority had been confirmed by
the French Government, and promifes to exert
himfelf to the utmoft to Phew himfelf worthy of the
truft committed to him.

On the 9th infant, (January 29), about five in
the evening, the Chevalier d'Azsits, the Spanith
Plenipotentiary, arrived at Amiens. The public
joy at this event was manifelled by difcharges of
arttillery, and the eagernefs with which the Citi-
zens flocked to greet the Ambalfador's entry.—
He lodges at the Hotel de Clermont, one of the
handfomea houfes in the town. General 8AR1...
GVAY d'HiLstass, who had arrived the evening
b.fore, in the morning reviewed all the troops in
the garrifon.

14 PLUVIOSE, FED. 3,
A letter from Amiens, of 9 Pluviofe (Jan. 29,)
received at Havre, hates the following intelligence
relative to the Definitive Treaty: We learn at
this moment, on good authority, and we haften to
idorm you, that the Articles of the Definitive
Treaty are fettled betwixt the Plenipotentiaries,and
that they will be figned and publi(bed within fif-
teen days."

The
.7curtial de: Dfenfears contains the following
obfervations:—.l Different opinions are already
formed of the refult of the deliberations of the
Confulta at Lyons, and the reafon of this is ob-
vious. Of men who pretend to judge, tome are
difpofed to judge ill, while a great proportion are
incapable of forming a correa judgment at all.—
Some pretend to deplorc the flax of the Italian Re-
public under its new deftiny. Individuals, friendly
to the Republic and the Government, dread in this
refult, a fubjed of diffarisfaaion on the part of
Foreign Powers, and a chance of war which did
not formerly exift. The perfevering friends of the
throne and the inflitutions of monarchy find in this
tranfaaion a fource of hope. They fee in the Ci-
falpine the indemnification which the CH av Cott-
svi is to receive for the reftoration of the Bour-
bons. In reafoning on the uneafinefi which the
firft defcription of perfons alluded to affeft to en-
tertain, there teems fomething ridiculous in being
more concerned about the fate of the Cifalpines
than the Cifalpines themfelves. What was their
Republic before this organization ? A State with-
out confideration, and without honour, where
every thing was effected by foreign influence, and
which, if left to itfelf, could not have exifted for
any time without falling into diforganization and
weaknefs. What is now the condition of the Ci-
falpine? A Conftitution is given to it founded on
the great principles pointed out by the French Re-
volution; a true fyllem of national reprefentation,'
a mode of eleetion which fecures the general inte-
reft by the wifeft forms. Whatever there exifts in
the country, of men of talent, of energy, of at-
tachment to liberty, has been called upon to fill
the places created by the Conftitution ; and every I,
thing is organifed in fuch a manner as to exclude I
foreign influence, except where it may be exercifed
with advantage. In a word, this country now
exifts for itfelf and by itfelf, and it exifts thus only
in confequence of its new organization : in com-
paring its prcfent Hate with its anterior form, let
it be (hewn what it has loft, and what caufe there
is for complaint. The anxiety of chore who fear
that the new order of things in the Cifalpine, will
increafe the chances of a new war, is not better
founded than the alarms of thole who deplore the
fate of theCitalpines. Were foreign powers igno-
rant of the fpecies and degree of influence, which
the French Government poffeffei ? It is impoffible
to maintain inch a propofition ; is not this influ-
ence neceffarily confined by the arrangement with-
in limits which were not formerly defined ? Will
Foreign Powers then find a caufe, will they difco-
ver a ground of offence in teeing the French Go-
vernment curtail its external dominions and in-
fluence ? of all chimerical pretexts for uneafinefs,
this is furely therefore the molt abfurd and extra-
vagant. As to the partitans of monarchy and the
Bourbons, it is indeed impoffible to give any an-
fwer. What I (hall we give an anaver to thofe
who intprron in their favour even the reafons of

CONSTANTINOPLI, Dac. Zo.—The CAPITAN PA.
CH• has been appointed by the GRAND &SIGNIOR
Commander in Chief of the Army defined to aft
again( Passwaw Octou, and to put an end to the
troubles which have taken place at Belgrade.
The Negotiations which had been begun be-
tween the HosPODAR of WALLACHIA and the Rebel
Pacha are broken off. A numerous fleet of fmall
boats are equipped on the Danube, for the pur.
pofe of attacking Widdin.
The GRAND Vizia will remain Tome time at
Cairo for the purpofe of organizing the affairs of
Egypt upon a new footing. The greateft part of
the Army will alfo remain there until tranquility
is entirely re-eftablifhed.
BERLIN, JAN. I6.—The Cotton Machines which
have been brought to Ruch great perfetlion in Eng-
land, and which have been introduced into France
with fo much advantage to her manufa.ures, be-
gin alfo to make tome progrefs in this Country.
The Houfe of BERN moons and Conan have form-
ed, with the aid of an Englifh Mechanic, and of
that excellent Pruffian Mechanic ZACHARIAS, a ma•
chine of more than one thoufand fpindles, which is
worked with extreme cafe, and of every part of
which the workmen are made to preferve exalt mo-
dels, in order to facilitate the multiplication of
thefe machines. Three hundred thoufand crowns
arc opioupliattil to dic purpolts of dila clUblifir
ment, which is under the fpecial proteition of the
Kiwo. The perfetiion of the machine induces us
to hope that we fhall be able to enter into a com-
petition with England.
THE HAG 111, JAN. 22.—Accounts from Batavia
fate, that the mortality there has been by no
means fo great thefe three laR years as formerly.
The Governor General, and other Officers of dif-
tinaion, have (pared no pains to have the morales
around the City and Fort of Batavia drained ; and
thus change the retreat of innumerable infets
and ferpents into fertile meadows. By cutting
down the woods, the air is gradually rendered
more pure, and freed from thole Itagnant vapours
fo fatal to Europeans. The garrifon, for the pre-
fervation of its health, is Rationed on the heights
which furround the City, except fmall detachments
on duty. It is certain, that a good Government
and a free Trade may render this Colony more ufe-
ful to our Republic, than when it was in the hands
of an Exclufive Company, who only thought of
their own interefts.

RATISBON. JAN. 19.—One of thole things which
will immediately be brought before the Diaature,
is the falary of the Imperial Chamber of Wetzlaar.
For feveral years, the Members of that Supreme
Tribunal of the Empire have-not received the
greater part of their falaries, a number of the States
and Princes of the Empire not having paid the con-
tributions laid on them by the fundamental laws
of the Empire, and which is known by the name
of Kammerbieler.

The finances of that Supreme Tribunal are fo
dilapidated that the vacancies have not been filled
up for fome years. The Chamber has in vain fa-
cited the Diet for aid. It is about to make a new
application to the Diet and the EMPEROR, which it
is fuppofed will at length be fuccefsful.
VIENNA, JAN. 17..-1 E appears, after the moil
accurate inveftigations, that the Pacba of Bel-
grade had occafioned his own death by attempting
to form a party to oppofe to the Janiffaries, and
by endeavouring to Phut them up in the citadel on
a particular fellival day, when they were ufually
allowed, by their cuftoms, to go out. He placed
an inconfidcrate reliance on the alfiftance of his
fon, who was to have come with 3000 men to his
fuccour. But that fuccour never arrived ; the
projea of the Pacha was difcovered, and his houfc
invcfted by the Aga of the Janiflaries.
MUNICH, JAN. 20.—The difcontent manifefted
on iffuing the Eleaoral Ordinance, fubjeaing the
Church Lands to contributions, is appealed, and
the meafure quietly carried into execution.
BOA SG LIN, Archbifhop of Aix, and Nos, Bi-
Atop of Lefcar, arrived Jan. 28, at Brack. They
came from England, and return to France by per-
miffion of the Government.

Prince HENRY of PRUSSIA is dangeronfly ill.
FRANCRFORT, JAN. 24.—There have been new
diflurbances at Weiffemburg, in Franconia. The
Pruffian Government of that circle having inflitut-
ed a new port-duty there, the Citizens wifhed the
Magiftrates to remove the cuflom-honfe by force ;
but the latter, fearful of the confequenees, would
not confent. This produced a quarrel between the
Citizens and the Magiflrates, which proceeded fo
far that M. ROTH,one of the Magiftrates, was mal-
treated, and forced to take refuge in Nuremberg.
It is faid that the Eleetor of BAvaitia, and the
Landgrave Of HESSE CASSEL, have procured from
the French Government a favourable decifion with
regard to the efiates of the Emigrants on the banks
of the Rhine. It is thought that the fulkials of the
Princes there will find more difficulty in the ar-
rangement of their claims. The brokers, BRUCKER,
of our city, have flopped payment: other bank-
ruptcies are expected. There is a great fcarcity of
money, which is attributed to the uncertain &tn.
tion of feveral of the States.
SCHAFFHAUSEN, JAN.21....-TOY thCfC ten months
there have been no French troops in our Canton ;
but this week Citizen VAILLANT arrived here with
orders from General MONTRICHARD, announcing
the fpeedy arrival of troops, to occupy this canton
and city. This event, at a moment when the com.
plete evacuation of Helvetia by the French troops
was talked of, has excited Tome fenfation. It
teems to be thought to canton French troops
through all Helvetia, to maintain the public tran-
quillity, while the fate of that country approaches
its denouement. Some people alfure us, that this
meafure has been concerted between the French
Military Authorities and our Government, in con-
fequence of a plan to arm the inhabitants of the
(mailer cantons, which did not meet the approba-
tion of the French General, and in place of"which
he engages to have his troops in readinefs to fup.
prefs any commotions which may be excited by
the eltablifhment of the new order of things.

SCHAUENBURG againa the fmalt Cantons had taken
refuge in Germany, arrived in this City. After
having viked the National Prefeel, and palled the
night at the Convent of Fahr, he returned to Ein-
ticdlen.
