Sr. PETERSIIVIGH, OCT. 6.—On the 4th
In the mottling, we received the long-withed intel-
telligence of the crowning of our -beloved Sove-
reign, ALEXANDER I. This joyful news was im-
mediately communicated to the inhabitants by the
difcharge of tot pieces of artillery, and the ring-
ing of bells; ilk the evening the city was fplendidly
illuminated.

Moscow, SEPT. 27.—Immediately after the co-
ronation, a proclamation was publithed, by which
his IMPERIAL MAJESTY TCICAICS All ranks of per-
tons from fubjation to the recruiting fcrvice
during the remainder of this year—all fines hi-
therto not collated are remitted—perfons impri-

VIENNA, Ocr. 4.—ln the night between the

PACS y, received acourier from Paris, with advice
that the Preliminaries of Peace between England
and France were figned on the tR of Onoher ;

his retinue were dreffed exaelly in the faihion of
this city. He wore his hair dreffed, with a bag
a brown coat embroidered with filver, and filk
ilockings. His fervants had brown liveries with
Myer lace ; and his principal attendants were in
fcarlet with gold lace. This was confidered as the
more remarkable, as the appearance and behavi-
our of General BERNADOTTE was ilrikingly the
reverfe.

HAG U t,Ocr. 2 2.—The new State Diretlory was
conflituted on the 17th. Itconfills of Citizens Bs-
MUM, BRANTSEN, HOOGSTRATEN,LEELV,Q2EY-
SEN, SPOORS, and Vta t zw, appointed by the
State Direetory ; and Citizens HAERSOLTE, Bas.
LER, PYMANN, LEAVE, and VAN BURMANNIA REN-
CERS, chofen by the (even firft named Members.
Citizen BEVEREN was chofen Preftdent according
to the loth article of the new Conflitution. Among
thefe twelve Menbers are two who before the year
1795 held a high fituation under Government,
namely, BevAN-rsztr, who about the end of :794
went with itsPk.LAAR to Paris to negotiate a Peace,
which, however, did not take place, and BURMAN-
NIA ROWERS, Member of the States-General for
Friefcland. The other ten Members have all,
fince 1795, at different times, had a (hare in the
Government of the State, either as reprefentatives
of the people, Dire tors, or Miniflers. The ap-
pointment of the two firft is no doubt intended to
produce a reconciliation and union of parties.
The new Direaory is, it is to be obferved, of Citi-
zens feleaed from all the Departments : there
are three from Holland, two from Friefland, two
from Guelderland, one from Zealand, one from
Utrecht, one from Groningen, one from 0 veryfrel,
and one from Batavian Brabant.

CHAIMESGERAID HULTMANN is chofen Secre-
tary to the New Directory, but as he is at prefent
at Berlin, Citizen DASTSVAL will officiate for him
till his arrival. _ _ -

It is faid Miss will be appointed Secretary of
State. The Council of Finance will confill of Ci-
tizens AIDEMA, VOSSUIN-STEENWyCK, and a third
Member. _ _ _

The late Dire&Ory is now entirely difrolved, and
we live under a new form of Government, which
is as different from the late Government as that
was from that which preceded it, and which began
with the great Revolution in 1795.
Hamm", OCT. 17.—A Suabian Gazette (peaks
of feveral fecret articles in the Preliminaries be-
tween France and England, of which he pretends
to give the following : " Spain in lieu of Trini-
dad, (hall receive the ifland of St. Lucia. The
ceffion of the Spanifh part of St. Domingo thall be
recalled, and Louifiana be ceded inflead to the
French Republic. The poffeffion of Piedmont by
the French, the King of Tufcany, the Cifalpine,
Ligurian, Helvetic, and Batavian Republics, to-
gether with the Sovereignty, to be founded for the
late Stadtholder, [hall be acknowledged by Eng-
land.

" The Batavian Republic (hall receive indem-
nifications in Belgium, and the late German coun-
ties on the left bank of the Rhine, for the ceffien of
Ceylon.—ln cafe the Definitive Treaty fhould not
be concluded, there (hall, neverthelefs, be a three
years At m.Rice between France and England on
the forting of prefent polreffion."
Rarissow,Gcr.l6.—As by the Preliminaries of

Amiens is appointed to be the place of Congrcfs
for negociating the definitive Treaty, it is expec-
ted that Plenipotentiaries from Auftria and Pruffi a

On Saturday lall, between three and four, P. M.
a duel took place in a field near the Long Room.,
Plymouth, between Lieutenant Wortrif, of thr
BEAULIEU, and Mr. lismpii ILL, late Purfer of
that Ihip. Lieutenant the Hon. EDWARD Icitic
was fecond to the former, and Mr. Nice, Purfer
of the BEAULIZU, to the latter. After exchanging
a (hot each, the feconds interfered ; and it appear.
jag that a mifreprefentation had been the occafioa
of-the meeting, the affair was amicably fettled.

Mr. H. SIDDON s, laft night, took, as the fuccef.
for of Mr. Pori, the part of Othello at Covent-Gar.

a correa attention to the text of the Author, and
fame few attempts at new emphafis, but which we
did not think particularly happy. As a reader of the
charafter we pronounce him very refpedable, but
he wants the animation and deportment of his pre.
deceifor. Indeed, we confider Othello, like liam/fl,
as above the perfedtmanagement of any very young
man; though we confefs Mr. SIDDON s bids fair to
b: an ador of fuperior rank, after a tee•: years ac-
quaintance with a London audience. Ma.Cooxt's

on account of his hoarfenefs, which yet cots inues,
