ports to our Thrisie,and to furround it with frefh fplendour
" It is our duty to fccure the State and fortunes of thole famil ct.
who entirely devote themfelves to our fcr►iee, and who continu•
ally Sacrifice their interefta to our own. The permanent honours,
the legitimate, honourable. and glorious fortunes, which we with
to confer on thole who render us eminent latices, whether in
the military or civil line, will ferns a ftriking eontraft to the lUe•
gal, concealed, and fcandalous fortunes of thole, who, in the exer-
elle of their fundtions, only fought their own intereft in place of
ours and the goad of our ferviee. Without doubt, the conftionf-
nefs of having done bis duty, and the advantages attached to our
approbation, are fufficient to keep a true Frenchman within the
line of honour ; but the order of our Society is fo conftitoted, that
to apparent diftind;ons, and to great riches are annexed a degree
of cotfiicration and fpiendour with which it is our wi!h. that all
our fubjeds, who are Signalized by their talents,their fervices,and
their mit d, that greateft gift to man, thould he Surrounded.
" He who has given us the greateft affiftarice in this, the com-
mencement of our reign, and who after haviog rendered the
greateft Services, in all the events of his military career, Das affited
his name to a memorable liege, in which he has difplayed talents
and Striking bravery, appears to us to merit the higheß diftinc •
lion. We have alfo wiffied to confccrate an epoch fo honourable
for our arms ; and by the Icttcrs patent which we have inftruded
our Coufin the Arch Chancellc•r to communicate to you, we have
created our CouGn, Marthal and Senator Lefebvre, Duke of Dant-
zie. May this, borne by bisdefeendants, recel to them the virtues
of their ancellor ; and may they for ever acknowledge thenleives
as unworthy of it, if ever they prefer a cowardly repole and the
idienefe of a great city. to the perils and !he neble duft of camps;
if ever their ftrongeft with ceafes to he for us and their Country.
Let not one of them end his days without having Shed bis blood
for the honour and glory of our noble France ; and let him fee in
the name which he bears, not a privilege, but his duty towards the
people and midden. Upon there conditions, they may be always
allured of our protedion, and that of our fucceffors.

(Here follow the Letters Patent, creating Lefebvre Duke of
Dantzle, with territorial pnff, [nous in the Interior of France.]
By letters from Zara, dated the 22d May, we
have received the following intelligence:—" The
Raidni have evacuated Wallachia and Moldavia in
great precipitation. On the 14th, this intelligence
was communicated by the Pacha of Bofnia to M.
David, the French Conful General, who rendes with
him at Trawnick. This !tally retreat is aferibed to
the jull fear which the Ruffians entertain, lea the
right wing of the French army fhould cut off all
cummunicati, n between them am] their great army
in Poland. The fame accounts from Trawnick alfo
mention, that the Grand Vizier has left Adrianople,
and advanced with the whole of his army towards
the Danube."
