EXTRACTS FROM THE PARIS JOURNALS.

Bar.s, Ocr. 24.—The courier difpatched by
General RAPP to Schwitz to fummon the Diet to
diffolve itfelft returned to Berne on the 2111, at 11
at night. He brought back an anfwer from the
famous ALors REDING, who, as Prefident of that
illegal Affembly, wrote in a very laconic manner
to Citizen RaPP—" that having received his dif-
patches very late at night, he had not had time to
convoke the Diet to notify to it his fummons, and
that the courier beingtanzious to return, he could
only acknowledge the receipt of his letter." This
dilatory anfwer having been immediately commu-
nicated by Citizen RAPP to the Aide•de-camp of
General NEY, who was waiting at Berne for the
anfwer of the Diet, the latter immediately pro-
ceeded to Geneva, and a few moments after his
arrival in that city, General NET fet out for Berne,
where he arrived on the 23d in the morning,
Having been made acquainted. with the bad
faith of the Dict, which, inflead of difbanding its
army, and difrolving itfelf, has again organized
the counter-revolution in tome of the cantons
much inclined to fubmit to the authority of the
Helvetic Government, he difpatched couriers to
the French Commanders Rationed on the frontiers,
with orders to them to cam& the French troops to
enter the territories of Swilrerland immediately.
The unexpetied arrival of General MY at Berne,
which was publicly announced by the difcharge of
fifteen cannon fired from the ramparts, by the
order of General RAPP, fpread terror throughout
Berne, where it was believed that this firing an-
nounced a new revolution ; but the PrcfeEt was
charged by the Landamman DOLDER to tranquil.
line the public by a proclamation, which was if-
fued the fame morning.
General Nsv is invefted with military and di-
plomatic powers, and will be affifled in his impor-
tant fundions by General RAPP.

The fuperior Authorities of Zurich, Schaff, hau-
fen, Soleure, Bale, &c. compofed of the zealous
partifans of BACh MAN, REDING, and WATTIN•
WY L, have hitherto refufed to fubmit to the procla-
mation of BON AIP•ILTE. They have protefted
again( the Helvetic garrifons which had been an-
nounced to them. At Bale a part of the citizens
openly declare their defign of oppofing by force
the Helvetic troops. A new meafure of the Diet of
Schwitz has increafed the public agitation : it has
fummoned the Cantons to fend their contingents
once more to the Cantons of Zurich, Saint Gall,
Turgovia, &c. where the partifans of the Helvetic
Gove, nment have for fome days had the upper
ban'. This fummons, which has been favourably
received in the ci-devant fovereign towns, has met
with oppofition in the country. The French alone
are capable of at length putting an end to this
an irchy. They are entering SwiiTerland in ;very
point. The 16th demi-brigade which for fome
time paft has been in the Frjekthal, is on its march
for St. Gall.

BALE, OCT 22.—A1l the Helvetic troops under
the command of General Vomozawtto, who hi-
therto carried on war, and oppoied refinance to the
confederate army, have advanced ; they have re-
occupied Fribourg, Payerne, Morat, &c. and are
daily filing off by Berne to repair to the other
parts of Helvetia, and to remain in garrifon in
the principal towns of that country, fuch as Zu-
rich, Lucerne, Sokure, Bale, &c.
In regard to the Confederate Army under the
command of General BACHMAN, it is true that as
an anny it is dillblved, but the particular corps of
which it is compofed are far from being dilbanded.
It is thus that General Au r-rosa-Mi It, one of the
Chiefs of, the Confederates, whole conduit, un-
worthy of a military man, has excited aguinft
him univerfal contempt, has repaired with the
contingents of the Petty Cantons to Lucerne,
whe.e he waits for new orders from the Diet of
Schwitz for his future deftination.

A battalion of Zurichers is fill at Zofingen; in
Argovia, and the armed peafants of Baden have
occupied the difiria of Brugg, where they com-
mit every kind of violence and excefs. The town
of Brugg poffeffes, as is well known, a great many
commonalties ; •the peafants affembled the Magif-
tracy, and fummoned them to give them the ttfe
of that property, threatening, that in cafe of a
refufal, they would fer fire to the town and affaf-
finate the inhabitants. All the remonfrances
made to them, even by their chiefs, were of no
avail. People in the eafieft circumftances have
left the town and concealed themfelves in the
neighbourhood. Great apprehentions are enter-
tained for the fate of this interetling Commune.
The town has fuffered a great deal from the
paffage of the peafants, making part of the levy
en male, and whom their Officers, almoll all an-
cient patricians, had infpired with prejudices
againft the inhabitants. The firm condo 9, how-
ever, of the latter, and their energy, has preferved
them from the exceffes committed in other corn
munes.

Scarcely was the difFolution of the confederate
army known there, when the emblem of the bear,
which had been erected before an the houfes, by
orders of the Bernefe Authorities, was deftroyed.
The latter thought it prudent to decamp and to
entruft the protection of the town to a corps of
Soleure troops, who, on hearing that the Helvetic
troops were on their march to Argovia, immedi-
ately betook themfelves to Right, though the na-
tional Prefea, who had refumed his funaions,
Aimed them that they might quietly wait for the
arrival of the Helvetic troops, and that no hurt
would be done to them.

VIENNA, OCT. i6.—The EMPEROR has prohi-
bited M. de Costa TZEL, Vice-Chancellor, from
receiving letters addrefed to him by the Chiefs of
the Armed Affemblies of Berne: His IMPERIAL
MAJESTY has manifefted a defire that tranquillity
fbould be promptly re-eftablifhed in Switzerland,
and thews a full confidence in the part taken by
the FIRST CONSUL, to reftore repofe to that unfor-
tunate nation, to place it in a way of enjoying its
independence, and refnming, at length, its rank
among(} the Powers of Enrnpe.
The correfpondence continues to be very aaive
between our Court and thole of London and Pe-
terfburgh. The changes which have been made
in,the Miniftry of Ruffia are here, as at Peterfburgh,
the fubjed of general converfation. It is more
important to obferve, that the EMPEROR, in aug-
menting the authority of the Senate, eftablithes
his throne upon the molt folid balls.
His IMPERIAL MAJESTY has charged his Inter-
nuncio at Conftantinople, to demand from the
Porte the free navigation of the Danube to the

ter from the FIRST CONSUL, relative to the cir.

LASNES from Liibon.
