DUTCH PAPERS.

likely to take place, and which would embrace all
political objeas in chfpute, were to proceed tinder
the mediation of a Northern Power, in the capital of
a Rate contiguous to France. Time will develope
all things. 'There never was a moment more replete
with political fhLion, thin the prefent.

The Court of Vienna has fent to its Minifler at
Paris, the refult of the negotiations, during the lali
year, between the Papal Mincio, the Recorder of the
Empire, and an Ecclefiati;cal Counfellor of the Elec-
tor Arch Chancellor : the fame Court has an mint
mitted a plan of a Concordat, which was p. ()pored
by the Chancery of the Empire, 'and communicated
to the other negotiators. Aultria defies, it is laid,
that this negotiation on the Gt ratan Concordat, Hull
ferve for a bath of the negotiation for a Concordat
commenced at Paris.

FROM THE MAte, Dec. 7.—The public papers

tifbon :—" Several German Princes have been in-
formed of the happy iffire of a negotiation, hitherto
carried on between Auflria and Praia, on the per-
fonal votes in the Council of Princes of the Empire.
The Roman Emperor ufed to create feveral Prices
of the Empire. in order to increafe, by their admit=
firm into the Council of Princes, the number of Ro-
man Catholic perfonal votes. This was oppofed for
feveral months by the Court of Bailin : but the two
Courts entered into a negotiation fence the lag va-
cancy of the Diet. It is now laid, that an agreement
was concluded early in November, adjufting this im-
portant point. The two Powers agreed on the ad-
million of a certain number of new Roman Catholic
perfonal votes, to reflore an equilibrium between the
Catholic and Protcftant votes. The number of new
votes is not In great as Aufiria defired : it is, however,
greater that Emilia was at &ft difpofed to admit."

WAR Is PERSIA. —Thc Peerfbargh Official Ga-
zette, of December 14, has publi111:.1 the following
report, by Prince ZizlaHor, upun the military ope-
rations agaiuti the Perfians, of which the fillowing is
an extra& :

" After the defeat of the Perfians, and the taking
of their camp, at Kanagira, Abbas Blida, their Com-
mander, retired to the village of Schaura, eighty
werfts dillant front the field of battle, and called upon
his father, Baba Kan, for affillance. During this in-
terval, Prince Ziesenor caufed the Ruffians to fur-
round the fortrefs of Erivan, aad on the sth of July
they commenced the bombardment of the city. Baba
Kan, at the head of 13,00 u men, came to the affift-
ance of his fon, whom he joined on the 13th. On the
ph, at day-break, the Perfian troops, under Baba
Kan, attacked the left wing of the Ruffians. The
enemy approached within grape-flint, fupported by
the befieged, who made a fortie. The combat was
lib:iinate on both tides, bt.t Ruffian valour at length
triumphed over their numerous enemies; for, after
being les-Leal times repulfed by fuperior numbers, they
fireceeded in driving the Pertians from all the heights
they occupied. When the befieged made a fortie, it
fhould. have been obferved, they attacked the Ruffian
right wing, commanded by M. DE Sistamovicm,
Colonel of the Regiment of Caucafus. This brave
officer not only received the enemy with his wonted
courage ; but repulfed them with the bayonet, killing
400, who remained upon the field of battle. The
animofity of this fortie furpalFes every thing : thirty
Perfians, fortified in a but, were furrounded, and of-
feted quarter, but preferred death, and refuted to
furrender. Baba Kan, now beaten at all points of
his line, though ten times more numerous than the
Ruffians, founded a retreat, and marched towards
the river Carnitochai. Two pair of colours were taken
from the enemy, who left 'goo men upon the
ground, among then) three Kam, and 250 officers.
We are ignorant of the number of the wounded, be-
caufe, according to the Perkin custom, they were all
carried off. The lots of the Ruffians in killed and
wounded is t 3 officers, and 166 privates.
" Baba Kan, fruftrated in his hopes, began to ra-
vage the country, to deprive the 'lndians of provi-
fions, and eafily effthed it with his numerous cavalry ;
and this circumstance, together with the informa-
mation received by Prince ZIZIANOF of an infurrec-
tion among the inhabitants of the rocks of Caucafus,
infligated by Baba Kan and the Grufinian Princes,
Julem Parnaos and Alexander, the fira of whom is
already in our power, caufed the Commandant to
call a council of war, when a plurality of voices de-
cided it as the moll prudent ftep to defer the liege of
Erivan till a mote favourable opportunity, andreturn
without delay to Tifilis, there to reitore that order
which had been ditlurbed in the abfence of Prince
ZIZIANOF. The Ruffians abandoned Erivan on Sep
member 4 ; the befieged attempted another fortie to
banal; their tetteat, while Baba Kan defcended into
the plain, but he contented himfelf with a distant can-
nonade.

" Our lois, during the campaign, is thus eftimated
in ki:led and wounded, 15 Officers, and 300 privates.
The enemy loft 5000 men ; among them three Kans
and other dillinguithed Officers. Several dromeda-
ries, itandards, &c. have fallen into our hands, befides
a camp as rich as it was abundant in provifions."
Prince Ztz 'Amor concludes his report with a pro.
mile to bring the revolted Grufinians to a fpeedy
obedience; and he adds, though it is mortifying not
to have crowned the campaign by the capture of Eri-
•an ; the feeble detachment under his orders had,
notwithfianding, fucceeded in effetling the principal
objeet of his military operations in Perfia ; which
was that of not only hindering Baba Kan from pe-
netrating into Grulinia ; but to prevent him in all
his enterprizes beyond the Ruffian frontier ; and on
the other hand to carry on the war upon the Perfran
tat ritory.
