FROM THE PARIS PAPERS.

BRIINN, DEC. 2.—According to the laft ac-
counts from Belgrade, the jAiiiiraries have arrefled
the Pacha again. The inhabitants begin to emi-
grate ; as there are now two parties, great appre-
henflons are entertained that that place will become
the theatre of bloody fcenes.
MILAN, DEC. 7.—The Counfellor of State, PE.
TIET, has written the following letter to our Com-
mittee of Government An extraordinary
courier juft arrived announces to me, Citizens,
that the Firft Conful has teen with pleafure the
unanimity with which the Members of the Govcrn-
ment and the Confulta have adopted the mcafure
of an extraordinary alTcmbly. He has been deeply
touched with the mark of confidence which the
Cifalpine people propole to give the French peo-
ple, by lending their reprefentatives to Lyons.-
1-le directs me to affure you, that the Cifalpiae
Diet (hall he received with the fame fentiments of
confidence and affecftion that have dictated the
Convocation of it. As it is defired to be known at
Paris with certainty when the Cifalpine Deputies
(et out for Lyons, in order to make the neceffary
difpofitions for the Chief Conful's journey, I have
informed the Minifter for Foreign Affairs, that
almoft all the Members of the ordinary Confulta
have already fet out, and that the law of the
2111 Brumaire (Nov. 12) has been carried into
complete execution."
FR taoußG, DEC. I.—The French General WAL-
THER, previous to his departure, addreffed a letter
to the States and Magiftrates of this city, in which
he took his leave of them. Thefe two Badies re-
turned an anfwer in the molt obliging terms. In
the anfwer of the Nlagiftrates the following paffage
occurs—" Many of your predcceffors have fet out
from this place richly recompenfed, in order to in•
duce them not to do all the evil in their power ;but,
General, you carry with you riches much mole
liable, the bleftings of the poor but grateful inha-
bitants." NotwidtflandinL4 the probity and Jilin-

r Vit ASt eKrnßr, DEC. o..—Thore of the ancient'
Germans who have Rill cherillied a patriotic at-
tachment for the Germanic inftitwions, which is
more difficult to weaken in Germany than in any
other country in Europe, Ice with regret that the
Conilitution of the Empire is at prefent either
negleCted or forgotten, as it is violated in many
points. The troops of many Powers daily pals
and repafs over the territories of their co-elates,
without even the formality of a requifition, which
the fundamental laws of Germany prefcribe. Al-
though thole laws may be fufficient to prevent
abufes of this nature, it is a queftion how far it
I would anfwer any good end, to attempt to enforce
them, feeing that the tranfport of new recruits is
very frequent, and always followed with freth in-
fraCtions, of which complaints have been made,
but in vain. The AfTembly of the EleCtoral
Circle of the Lower Rhine no longer cxitts ; out
of the four EleCtors of which it confined, one
only, that of Mayence, has preferved a political'
exiftence, capable of maintaining his dignity.
The only objet which at prefent occupies the at-
tention of the great and petty Eftates of Germany,
is the portion that they may be able to have in
the indemnities, or at leaft the influence they may
be able to ezercife in the decifion of that impor-
tant objeet. The Germanic Contliaition is little
conneded with molt of the plans which our poli-
ticians with to fee adopted in the diikrent Cabi-
nets of Germany.
