It has been announced for some days in the politi-
cal circles, that General Andreosli; the French Am-
bassador, has obtained leave of absence for six weeks,
and that during that time he will make a journey to
Paris.

Last Sunday the Militia were exercised upon the
ramparts ; nothing was so grotesque as their ap-
pearance : no one could help shrugging up his shoul-
ders at seeing the awkwardness of these shopkeepers'
in their manoeuvres and manual exercise. These,
however, are -the invincible legions, which it is pre-
tended to oppose to the conquerors of Ulm and Ma-

rengo !
Several battalions of Croats have departed, in or-
der to repair to Buda, in Hungary, and to Petau, a
town of Lower Styria. Some regiments have also
been sent into • Moravia.

The depression of the public funds has become
alarming. Bank stock has fallen-from 80 to 70 ;
other stocks sink in proportion.

IL now co-tain, that no negociation for peace be-
twecn Russia :in,' Turkey will take place.

The Duke of NORFOLK suggested, that the alterations made
in the BM ought to be printed, in order that the (louse might be
enabled to give them due consideration.

tions as relating to canteens, to officers, embezzling stores, and to
other minor points of regulation; but observed that no now prin-
ciple was introduced into the Bill, and therefore suggested, that
it was u ry to print the new clauses.
