This day we received Paris Journals to the
ayth. They fill continue fluent refpeding any of
the rumours we mentioned yefterday, and which
may be confidered as abfolutely unfounded. Their
contents are not very interelting. It appears by a
Proclamation of Lacxxac, that they are willing
to admit foreign (hips into St. Domingo on alcluty
of 20 per cent. on the cargoes ; but, if the reports
have not been exaggerated. refpeaing the treat-
ment experienced by American veil& in that quar-
ter, who will rifque their property in fuck fpe-
culations ?

Switzerland, it would appear, hill continues to
be much agitated. Among the fubjoined extra is
from the French Papers are tome relating to that
unhappy country, which fate the inikrreCtion to
have been quelled; but in thofe of the latett date
it is hated, that the troubles fill continue in tome
diftries.-7-ser, Conforuli 56 f. i 5 c.
PARIS/ MAY 35.... The colony of St. Domingo,
fo long a prey to diturder, is about to be gradually
reftored tons original deftination. For tome years
paft its commerce has been fubjeaed to no rule.
The French nation, to whom we may fay it ex-
clufively belongs, did not fend thither a tingle
[hip. We mutt return, but by degrees, to the
ancient order : we mull, as formerly, affign to
national and foreign commerce their refpeetive
parts. But prudence will not permit us to take
from the one what was fo unfortunately given to
it, in order to reltore the whole to the other. We
mutt wait for the return of old habits: our mann-
faCtories mutt improve their productions: the com-
munication with England has put an end to our
former wants, and created new ones: we mull con-
fine our invettments to the different articles which,
ferve at prefent for manufalturing our colonial
productions. Who can entertain any doubt that
the Engin have introduced into St. Domingo
tome new procelles of real utility, as they may
alfo have improved their knowledge in regard to
feveral points of cultivation and fabrication?
The Captain General Lact.sac has publithed
the following decree, perfeltly adapted to circum-
fiances: it does not take every thing from foreign-
ere, nor &tut it give every tiling' to the Efette# ;

['TRACT FROM THE REGISTERS OF THE DECREES OF
THE PRESIDENT OF THE ITALIAN REPUBLIC.
Paris, April 3, dos.

BONAPARTE, Firft Conful of the Frenchßepob.
lk, and Prefident of the Italian Republic, in con-
fequence of the 83d article of the Conftitution,
which runs thus, Government convokes the Le.
giflative Body, and prorogues its Seffion
Dace ss s —The Meeting of the Members of the
Legiflative Body, for the Seffion of the year 1802,
Mall take place on the a4th of the month of June
at Milan, in the palace prepared for that purpofe.
The prefent Decree (hall be fealed with the Seal
of State, inferted in the official Journal, and in.
fcribed in the Regifters of the Civil and Admini-
ftrative authorities. The Grand judge is charged
with the publication of the prefent AR.
(Signed) BON•PARTI.
For the Prefident, F. 14ARESCALCHI,

Mar a6.—The Confuls have publifhed a decree,
which bates, that the Jewifh Rabbis can not give
the nuptial benediaion, but to thofe who fhall prole
in form, that they have contradeci marriage be,
fore a civil officer.
General Mtraav has arrived here iros m his jour-
ney to Rome and Naples.
Letters from Naples ftate, that in confequence
of the Drought, the whole eaftern part of Italy is
threatened with a famine.

MILANg Mar r 3.—We experienced here at half
after ten in the morning of yefterday, a firong un-
dulatory fhocl of an earthquake, which la(led two
minutes4but luckily it did no damage. The cafe,
however, was not the fame at Crema, Caravaggio,
Chiari, and other neighbouring places, where this
(hock occafloned mifchief. Its ciiration was from
North to South.

BOLOGNA, MAT s.T—The want of good order
among the people has attained to fuch a pitch, that
neither the vigilance of the police, nor the power
of the law, is capable of reftraining them. Our
Birricakisi, an order of the lower clafs, fimilar to
that of the Lassuermi at Naples, not only enter
the (hops and boufes for the purpofe of robbing,
but even attack people in the open day. One of
them who, in the middle of the market, at ten in
the morning, feized an old woman by the throat,
in order to take her money which flue had in her
pocket, and which amounted only to a trifle, has
been juft executed. This wretch was alEfted by
three others, who were not deemed worthy of
death. He was in the good graces of the cacti-
donee' wife, and thought that by her influence
he Should efcape the parfait of juftice.
BUNS, Mar t4.—We have received the happy
intelligence, that the infurreelion is quelled in the
Pays de Vaud. The infurgents have laid down
their arms, and retired peaceably to their homes,
on the fummons fent to them by General Atm.
They only demanded oblivion or the part. The
French General, and the Commiffary Ku N, both
promifed to intercede for them with the Helvetic
Government. Troops are going to be ilationed
in the different diftriEts of Leman, for the purprit
of maintaining good order. The archives burnt
are eaimated at about thirty. A report was fpreads
that a capitulation had been Signed with the rebels
of the Pays de Vaud, and that they obtainecl;wiih
a general amnefty, the abolition of tythes and other
taxes. This intelligence is fully_contradiftecl by
the following letter of General MouraicHn al) to
the Petty Council
" I have the honour to inform the Petty Coon.
cil, that the orders I gave to General Am sir, t.•
fummon the infurgents of the Pays de Valid, t
return to their duty, have been executed. 'llc
