on in France.

A private letter from Vienna, of the 6th inßant.
(tares chit that Court had put on morning for the
Dote of Upstate, whore murder had removed all re-

mainiog difficulties between the two Imperial Courts,
and that a Treaty was on, the eve of being fign-
ed for the purpolt of rear:plain the aggreffions of
BONAPARTE. The following are the words of the
letter alluded to: "The Treaty of Defenfive

ance Oft concluded between Ruifia and Denmark
is only the prefage of one upon a much larger kale,
and fuch as, at the prefent crifis, appears indifpenfi-
bly necelftry for the tranquillity of Europe, and the
relief of tortured humanity. It is confidently believed
that the fame underftanding extends to the Cabinets
of Vienna and Berlin, in which cafe that of London
cannot fail to participate."

The opinion thus etprefied is firongly fupported by
the condua of the Court of Berlin, which has order..
ed it, troops in Wefiphalia to be reinforced with
30,000 men, exchifiVC of a corps of 20,000 lieffians;
who are ready to march at a moment's notice. In
every part of Germany v ti • is confidered inevitable;
and, at the date of the letters, it was known at
Vi-
enna, that fevesal French corps, as well from the
interior as from the Coafi, had approached the Loiter
Rhine.
A letter from a Ruffian General at St. Feterfburgli,
dated the 25th of April, lays. Count Woaormi,
oar Minifter at the Court of London, it recalled, to
fill a place in our Miniftry. The next courier froth
England is expeaed to bring an anfwer, which will
be immediately followed by a declaration of wet
againft France ; a war, which, it is thought, will be
more general, and conduced upon more liberil
principles, than any war lace the revolution. Lout'
KVIIL will be acknowledged King of France by all
the Members of the Coalition, and all conquelts but
in Ms name will be renounced. My camp equipage
is ready, and I hope form to take the field."
V 51111,41. MAT 9.—On the 6th inftant. Baron Ws.
in:4l2ov arrived here from Peteriburgh, as a con•
tier, and brought orders, among others, to the
Ruffian Ambaffador here, Count Razustowset, to
put on 'Dooming for (even days for the late Duke
d'Esonten, which he accordingly did, with all the
perfons attached to bis legation, and the other
Ruffians in this city. _ _ _

The day after the arrival of this Courier the Ruffian
Amtvaffador had a private audience of his bar ileum
MAJESTY, and a conference with the Minifter of
State Count Cossarzec.

The Englifh Envoy, Mr. Smelt; SasITN, has not
remained long at Baden, but continued his journey
to Bohemia. Field Martial Lieutenant Duca has
been feat with orders to Italy.
A French Officer of the Confular Guard, arrived
here lately as a Gautier, and immediately afterwards
all kinds of reports were circulated. Some Paid ap-
plication had been shade for a patfage for troops
through the Aukrian territory ; others, that fuch
propofals had been made as it would be very difficult
to
.comply with. It is evident, however, how little
filch reports are to be regarded.
CONSTANTINOPLE, APSIL sB.—lt IS remarked that
the Minifters of Ruffia and France refident here have
frequently feparate private conferences with the
Turkifts Miniftry, the object of which is Paid to be
extremely interelling to the Porte. One of thefe
Minillers had demanded of the Rats Er►asot a fa-
tisfadory explanation relative to certain connections
of the Porte with another Power, and has employed
ftrong expreffions on the fubjeft. It is feared here
that the Porte will be involved in a war, unlefs fome
accommodations take place.
The difpute between the Arnants and the Begs of

" COUlit AZIEADI Ivasovirsit—Since I recalled
" you from your port at Paris, where you difcharged
• your duty with the greateft zeal, and to my entire
• fatisfatlion, it is very agreeable to me to have
" found your conduft there confiftem with propriety,
" and to renew my thanks to you for it, as well as
" for the exertions you have made to promote my
" advantage. As I with to give you a new proof of
" my fetisfaition, I have ordered, till an opportunity
" occurs of rewarding you according to your merit,
" that you Sall receive yearly from the revenues of
" the Poft Office sa,ooo roubles, and that 12,000
" roubles Mall be paid to you from the Treafory, to
" indemnify you for the expences of your return
" from Paris. This falary you will receive from the
" day of your arrival in Ruffia in the quality of a
" Milliner in the College of Foreign Affairs."

One eircumftance attcnding the above, deferres
particular notice. Although the Itescat PT is dated
to far back as the isth day of February, it was not
made publicly known till the tlk of May. From
this it feems but reafonable to infer, that the Ex.
trim( had fume time ago made up his mind as to
tilr hilt of eondua he illould follow refpetßing the
Fir,r Ccmsu ; but it was not neeeffAry that he
thould, therefore, initantly proclaim his intention to
the uotid.

We were the fira to announce to the public the
perfonal infult offered by Bo to Count Mat•
uocr, and the fpirited reply made by the latter on
that occaiion. " You think, Sir," faid he to the
FIRST Congos, "that you may with impunity infult
" me, becaufe of the diftance of Ruffra, bat know,
" Sir, that my Mafter not only putrefies the means,
" but the will to employ them in erasing the man
who dares to infult him in the perfon of his Repre-
" ftntative."—Such was the language made ate of
cu the occafiun to which we allude, and now the EIIR.
r Lao,. openly approves of the condult of the Minifter,
oho had the fpirit to employ it, and anuounces to the
v.i.rid the reward beftowed upon him in contiquence.
This Relcript, and the circumllances which gave
rife to it, joined to the nature of the late Imperial
N( :c to the Diet, (peaks more than a volume, and
here for the prefent we (hall leave it.
According to letters from Milan, the embryo Em-
peror is to have offered to him the Crown of Lom.
hardy in the name of the Italian People. There
goes another Republic! This, however, is only shat

Egypt was occafioned by the latter not being able to
pay the former. To raife the turn requifite the Beys
laid a contribution on the city of Cairo, which «ea-
fioncd an infurreaion, and the Beys found themfebres
entirely unable to furnifh pay to the Arnauts.—
HuacHor Pacita, the late Governor of Egypt, who
has fince lived as a private perfon at Alexandria, is
laid to have induced the Arnauu to rife againl the
Beys; and the former, after their viElory, invited
him to come to Cairo, and take on him the govern-
ment for the time. Whether the Porta will confirm
him in his authority, in lead of Disxsaa Paula, re.
miins to be teen.
Dessotw, Mar 4.—Mr. Maxi, the Englifh En-
voy to the Court of Munich, arrived here on the 9th,
with his Lady, -and purfued his journey the follow-
ing evening. He was accompanied by Mr. Mt/pree,
the Secretary of Legation.
Mean, Mar s.—Yefterday a courier arrived here
with difpatihes relative to the hereditary Imperial
Dignity propofed to be ellabliflsed in France. The
Con&lts immediately held an extraordinary affembly.
It is raid, that the Crown of Lombardy will likewife
be offered in the name of the Italian people to the
founder of our Republic.
A Ruffian courier has paired through Naples, who
left Petedburgh with two other couriers, one of
whom is going to Paris, and the other to Ratifbon
and Vienna.

Messina. Aram 4.—Three frigates and two cor-
vettes of the flotilla fitted oat to cruise againfl the
Barbary main have already pot to fee ; another
frigate is lying at anchor here. They are all fine
Blips, and well provided. This flotilla will be com-
manded by Coto To wan. *Takao► who has hoiAcd

mare, near Naples, ars DOM lying the fhip of the line
Archimedes, of 74 guns, and a number of gun-boats,
fitted out for the fame purpofe. This armament will
afford a very deferable proteftion to the Aingdoins of
Naples and Sicily, for the Barbary corfiira have this
fpring taken feveral large 'hips dole in fhore.
According to the account of tome Captains from
the Black Sea, many (hips of war and tranfports are
now lying ready to fail in the harbours of the Crimea.
MAGI, s, May ts.—The camp of French troops
on the heath between Utrecht and Amenfort, will
begin to be formed next week. There is likewife telk
of a camp of Dutch troops, which will be formed in
North Holland for the expedition. Each camp, that
near Utrecht and that in North Holland, will confift
of to,ooo men. General MAILMONT will go to
Utrecht about the end of this month. The General
went laft Friday to Rotterdam, where be met his
Lady, who had arrived from Paris—both are new
here. On the 7th inftant the gates and barriers at
Amfterdana were (hut. It was at firft reported that
thii unufttal circumftance had a relation to the expe-
ditionwhich was failing from the Texel ; this was,
however, without foundation. It appeared much
More probable ;bat the meafure was retorted to, in
order to ROI) roma fufpefted perfons.
