FROM THE PARIS PAPERS.

STOCKHOLM, JULY 28.—The affair of Admiral
WACHNISINTIR, who commanded the fleet at
Carlfcrona, has been decided this day by the Au-
lic Council of war. Though it has been proved
that the fleet equipped at Carlfcrona could not get
out of harbour, to proceed to the Sound, on ac-
count of contrary winds, the Council fentenced
Count WACHULISTER to be deprived of all his
military employments, becaufe he did not punCtu-
ally execute the Ki tic's orders in regard to other
points. We are anxious to know whether thin`
fentence will be confirmed by the KING.
CUWDAD RODLlGOVPAlWULY24.—Thehead-
quarters of the French are her. A peace has
been figned between the Spaniards and the Portu-
guefe, but it appears that no treaty has as yet been
concluded with the Republic. Though the nego-
ciations Rill continue, yet the horizon appears to
be clouded. It is generally feared that the French
will enter Portugal with an armed force. We know
not to which point the French army will dire et it-
Will, but we are a diftance nearly equal from
Oporto and from Lifbon. If the Court of the lat-
ter place does not fign a peace with the French,
it is probable that the Spaniards will take no there
in the expedition, the ilTue of which will be at no
great diftance.
Rona, JULY Ip.—The celebrated Englifhman
Mr. Hoes, well known for his mile in the Fine
Arts, has arrived here for the fourth time. He
has returned from a learned tour through the Le-
vant. He has not only colleaed with great care
the valuable remains of the antient magnificence
of the Greeks, but has made very accurate and
elegant drawings of them. He is on his way to
England, from which he will return hither next
winter ; our Artins wait with impatience for this
generous friend of the Fine Arts.

NAPLIS, JULY 19.—We are informed frorco
Malta and Palermo, that the fquadron of Rear-
Admiral GAIITNPAVNI, on the 6th of June, was
within 6o miles of Alexandria,towards the Levant;
that the currents of the Nile prevented a difem-
barkation ; that having appeared on the coaft of
Tripoli, he found the inhabitants every where in
arms to oppofe his landing ; that he fent a corvette
to Alexandria ; and that the inundation of the
Nile had begun to raife fome obftacles to the opera-
tions of the Englifh army, and to the arrival of
the troops landed at Suez.—Courier de Milan.
LEGHOIOI. JULY 22.—The following are the
meafures taken by the Provifional Government
of Tufcany, in concert with the French, for the
redo/lion of Porto Ferrajo. Eight pnvateers are
freighted and fitted out to ferve as tranfports, and
to aft againft the place, and on the a6th of this
month, two large veffeis laden with heavy artil-
lery and ammunition will fet out for the fame def-
tination. A great many brafs-cannon with field-
pieces and heavy artillery, taken from the point
of the mole, have been put on board thefe veffels
their place baiting been fupplied by others of lef;
calibre. Betides, this city has had orders to fur-
nifh a great quantity of planks. and feveral thou-
land bags, which, according to cuftom, will be
filled with earth neceffary to make entrenchments,
and in order that the troops may not want pro-
vifions feveral cargoes of bifcnit have arrived from
Pifa by lea as well as land; they have all been em-
barked in a large tartan, to be conveyed to Pions-
bino. Several covered waggons belonging to the
divifion of General Vara in, to whom this expedi-
tion has been entrufted, are alfo on their march; a
company of rappers and cannoneer' have arrived,
and to-morrow will continue their route foe Pim:t-
hin*. This evening the Zephir privateer, having
troops and ammunition on board, failed for Lon-
tone. It is Paid that General VATRIN is prepar-
ing to fet out for the fame place.
it is not true, as announced, that Porto-Ferrajo
is defended by an Englifh fquadron ; we know on.
ly that on Friday laft, the Englifh cutter, the Ross,
arrived there and landed the Captain, who, after a
conference of fame hours, with the officers civil

and Maitary. of that place,teturned on board, add
made fail for the place of his de ftination.
yeIJULY a3.—Gen. VATRIN fet out from this place
erday morning, efcorted by a detachment of ca.
valry. According to report, he will proceed to Porto
Lougone, to take the command of the troops, who
are employed in the fiege of Porto Ferrajo, and to
peels their operations. There fet out this morning
Dr covered waggons filled with gmmunition for
the ufe of the troops ; the number of bags already
forwarded amounts to thirty-fix thonfand,they will
be filled with earth and will be ufed in filling up
the foffe. If the place does not fpeedily furrender,
it is determined to attack it on the fide of the lea ;
fome privateers and frigates will cruife before it,
and endeavour to deftroy a bridge furnifhed with
artillery, which, it is laid, the inhabitants of Porto
Ferrajo have conftruded for the defence of the en-
trance of the harbour. It is flated that the Eng-
lifh fleet has failed, having on board a number of
women and children, who ferve only to confume
their provifions, and they have fent back a new
meflinger who had been fent to them with pro-
pofals of furrender, to prevent the farther effulion
of human blood. The French have of late confi.
derably encreafed in the iiland ; their number is
eftimated at eight thonfand.
It is not true, as was reported, that an Engliih
fquadron had arrived in the roads of Porto Ferrajo,
a Tingle cutter only having arrived, theCaptaia of
which gave orders for fang, after having held
a fhort conference with the leading Pe•PIC of the
place.

TNT GENER•L IN CHIEF TO TNT TUIF/INT.
Head-gleaners at Florence, July .111.
Tufcans—The French people is united to you
by the ties of attachment, founded on mutual ef.
teem. They refped your manners and your habi:s,
and are perfuaded that the virtues .of a people do!
pend on a perfect confiftency between their cha-
rafter and their laws. The Prince who is to rule
you, gives you notice that he is on the eve of drum,
ing the reins of government. You preferve a
jun degree of refped for thofe inflitutions, and the
memory of Princes who have raifed your country
to the bightft fummit of glory. The firft tee whick!
Louts the Fira makes of his authority, is to con=
firm the work of their wifdom, by giving affuran-
ces to the Empire of the continuance of all the
laws, and all the inftitutions which they formed.
Your country is the favourite abode of arts and of
fcience; the Monarch who is to reign over you, is
an objed of efteem to Europe by his tafte for the
fciences and the arts; by the fuccefs with which
he cultivated them, as well as by the virtues which
render men jolt, and Princes beneficent ! His ac.
ceffion to the throne is to you a prefage of the
continuance of that glory which hitherto has ren-
dered Tnfcany diftinguithed under the empire of
the Medici and of Leopold; his Minifter
ap-
proaches to receive the oath of your fideli, y. The
oath he himfeif has taken to render you happy is
already regiftered in Heaven. Tufcans, from the
moment that I attuned the command among yen.;
it has been my objed to make you enjoy the blti;
fings ofpeace. The moft rigid difcipline has re-
veled among the troops; Tepee for perfons and
for property has been maintained; and never have
you been called upon to make contributions which
the wants of my army, calculated with the utmo 1
mccmomy, did not demand of you. The marks of
your attachment have futficiently repaid me P.r
my labours. Your King will endeavour to re-
move the evils which have fprung from war.—Sur•
round him with your love, and you will era ez-
perience the bletlings of hie paternal folkitude.—
Tnfcans, you ought to behold in the French a
people attached to you by friendfhip—a people
which, while they are firmly attached to Repith-
licanifin, know how to refped Monarchical prin-
ciples among a people who live under a Monarchy.

Yetlerday the Hamburgh mail arrived, which
became due ; and in the fame packet Mr. Av cr s-
WORTH, one of his MajAy's Meffengers, arrived
difpatches from Vienna and Berlin. Their
contents have not tranfpirt.d, but are believed
chiefly to relate to the Turkilh intelligence, refpeft-
log the fall of Cairo, of which we may hourly ex-
peft a confirmation, with farther particulars, from
General Hercrt /UM

The German Papers afrure us of the truth of
the news from Conftantinople, but without farther
details or accounts through any other channel.
The Hamburgh Gazette of the Loth in R. Elates,
that the CH ler Com sot. has expunged the name of
GANTHEAUME from the lift of Counfellors of State ;
for not having obeyed his exprefs order to land the
troops, entrufted to his care, on the coall of Egypt.
It is fingular that fuch a circumflan&, ill true,
fhould firs t tranfpire through a Hamburgh Journal.
It is not however altogether unworthy of credit on
that account.

Yefterday we alto received Paris Journals to the
12th inft. inclufive, and this morning thofe of the
lath. The molt important article in them relates
to the harveft. Our readers in general will rejoice
on being informed that the abundant harveft with
which PROVIDENCE has bleft us, has not been
limited to this country. In trance they eftimate
the crop at one-third more than that of Taft year,
which was alto abundant. In their corn pro-
vinces the harveli is almoft over, though it ap-
pears that they have bad a good deal of rain in
the fouthern diftrils.

The French journalifts begin at length to fpeak
of GANTHE•USIL'S expedition as being hopelefs.
The papers contain feveral rumours refpeeting
him, the moft important and moft probable of
which is, that though he got within 6o or 70 miles
of Alexandria, he only got one veffel fent in, and
could not land his troops. The natives on dif-
ferent parts of the coati threatened oppofition, and
be has failed in his objeft. We may therefore
loon expeet to hcar of the fall of Alexandria.
If we may croft to the reports of private cone-
fpondence from France, till, fcems alfo to be the
opinion of the CHIST CONSUL himfelf; for the ru-
mour is, that trotting no longer to the poffeffion
of Egypt, as a ground for demanding the reftitu-
lion of all the conquefts we have made from the
allies of the French Republic, he has, within the
laft ten days, offered a new projdt of accommo-
dation to the Britifh Minifter, more likely to con-
ciliate the two nations.

We pretend not, however, to Rate this fad
upon any other authority than that of the letters
from Paris, upon which the rumour has been freely
circulated here for feveral days.
The frequent interchange of difpatches gives
fome countenance to the idea that the negociation
has not abated through our (menacing prepara-
tions for the attack of the French coati; and it
mull be obvious, that if the twoparties are aduatcd
1;y the genuine love of peace, the late events in
Egypt, and particularly the fall of Cairo, muft
facilitate the negociation. It removes the flrongeft
impediment that exifled to a good underflanding;
fore even the doubtful power, which the French
had acquired there, would have entitled them to
make demands highly inconfiftent with the comma--
sial avarice at lean, if not with the juft policy, of
F.iglard to grant. There can nolonger be a pretence
thr fuch demands; but, on the other fide, if our
;'rcat, and, perhaps, unexpected fuccefs in Egypt,
!hall fo tar intoxicate our Minifters as to make
tl,em rife in their terms with the fleeting fortune
•of the day, the triumphs of our brave and gallant
a; my in Egypt will be the fource only of protrad-
c.l holility and national misfortune. The mo-
most that the two belligerent powers (hall agree on
this fundamental point, that the two Governments
r'.ly be co-exillent, and mutually fecure, all lair
toididerations ought to fly before the force of ree-
f 1 for no difference as to the amount of acqui-
! ian in one quarter of the globe, or of facrifice
La another, can be equal to the calamity of another
/car of war and taxes.

Phi• morning a Mail arrived from Lifbon, by
th;ch we learn that a brilliant illumination took
place in that capital in confequence of Peace be-
' -cal Spain and Portugal having been proclaimed.

The letters by this Mail agree in Rating that a
bugle fomewhat warlike Rill continues, and fome
of them afcribe it to apprehenflons entertained ref-
peeling the French troops which Rill remain on
the frontiers of Portugal. When the packet failed
there were even reports, that 12,000 men were
about to march againft Lifbon. We fubjoin a let-
ter from an Englifh Gentleman in that city, whofe
account of the movements, and of the motives
which occafion them, feems likely to be more
correa than any of the preceding :

" LISBON, JULY 24.
" The peace with Spain has been celebrated
hire with three days illuminations, and every de-
mon Oration of joy. Preparations,, however, are
(till carried on with an alacrity ;mutual in the Por-
tugueze, and unprecedented in the courfc of this
war ; upwards of gOOO men having been preffed
within thefe four days for the Navy : this together
with the profound fecrecy obferved refpeding the
terms agreed upon between the two Courts, gives
rife to various conjedures ; fome imagine that it
is deflined for the defence of their Brazil Colonies,
others to repel any attempt of the French from
the Spanifh ports to take poll-elion of the Forts and
Shipping in this River by a Coup de main : whate-
ever may be the object, their men of war, which
have been in a difmalled Rate ever fince their re-
turn from Naples, are now getting ready with all
poffible difpatch ; but it is to be hoped that mea-
lures are already taken by the Britilh Government
to counteract any Snifter view on the part of this
Country, either to allift our enemies openly with
their naval force, or clandellinely permit them to
take poffellion of it in the prefent defencelefs Rate
of this port."
