Our Minifter for Foreign Affairs receives the
title of Secretary of State.
Our Legiflative Body now meets every day in
the week, Sunday and Monday excepted, and corn-
znences its difeuflions as formerly with prayers. If
any Member abfent himfelf, except in cafe of fick-
nes, he mull pay a fine of a florin to the poor : 25
florins are alfo deduced from his allowance for
every day's abfence.
On the sift and 22d inft. we had here as violent
a norm as that of the scl.• At Scheveningen, three
!hips were wrecked, among which was an Englifli
one : there, at Catwyck and other places, many
dead bodies have been thrown on fhore. We ire
under great apprehenfions for Tome (hips from
England, which are on their way to the ports of
our Kepublic, laden with rice and other commo-
dities. The Minifter of Police went yefterday to
Haerlem, to view the inundated country; and it is
hoped, that by the means of fluices and water-mills,
the communication between the North and South,
which is interrupted, will be fpeedily reftorecl.
MILAN, Nov. it.—Since the 3cl init. the day of
the great storm in the north of ...:.tirope, we have
had here fuch continual and violent rains as have
never been mown in the memory of man. The
Addeo, Olono, Lambro, and Sevefa have over-
flowed their banks, and caufed great devaftation.
Trees, houfes and mills have been carried away by
the floods, and feveral peafant s have been drowned.
The country round this city refembles one wide
fea ; the ftreets of great part of the fuburbs are
overflowed. The Ticino, the Gravilone, and the
Po, not far from Pavia, form only one wide
'lmam. The bridges of Pavia, Lodi, and Cat-
ania are partly deftroyed, and we expea to hear
of many fimilar accidents in other places. Our
Archbi(hop, to avert the calamity, has ordered
three days prayers in the cathedral, which will
commence to-day; and the departmental admini-
ftration has ordered fimilar prayers in the church
of Santa Maria Segreta.
