HOLLAND.

The latest accounts state, that a change his taken
place in the Dutch Government. VAN MEEwEN is
appointed Minister of Finance, and Inspector General
of the Customs, in the room of GAGEL.

Ron is no longer Minister for Foreign Affairs.

JANSSEN is removed from the Administration of
the War Department. His successor is not men-

tinned.

Dunaoco, the Grand Marshal de Logis, is ca-

shiered.

PANDER HEIM, Minister of Marine, has requested

leave to resign.
The cause of these sudden changes is not mentioned.
It is reported in the City, that a -French Paper has
been received, containing a message from BONAPARTE
to the Senate, in which, after some severe' animad-
versions on the conduct of the Emperor of AUSTRIA,
he states, that the differences between him and that
Monarch have been adjusted ; and that, in consider-
ation of some important concessions on the part of
the Emperer FRANCIS, the Confederation of the Rhine
has been dissolved. It is added, that BONAPARTE has
avowed his determination of treating Spain as a con-
quered country, in consequence of the resistance
which his usurpation of the Sovereignty of that coun-
try has experienced. We have not ourselves seen the
paper which is stated to contain this'article, and can-
not, therefore, vouch the authenticity of The state-
ment.
