•
by the victorious army of the French.
" It was worded. on the part of Wirtemberg,
to fupply a contribution of eight millions, two thou-
land horfes, and as many men as would have been
fufficient for conducting the French artillery, and
other carriages attached to the army. This was not
accepted—but a demand was made for ten thoufand
men, and one thoufand Ironies, to be at the difpofal
of the French army. I anfwered, that this was be- i
yond the teach of my abilities, and that the military
in Wirtemberg were accullomed to the grant of fur-
loughs every year, which would, of cuurfe. be fill
canceled. • What you cannot effecri, your country
can,' was the anfwer of the Emperor Napolecn. I
replied, my States will not content.' The French
Emperor immediately Paid, I will (upport you
againll your States.'
" No choice now remained: I fubfcribed to the
articles of the treaty, a tranilation of which, from the
French into the German language, fo far as it relates
to this bulinefs, 1 will now read to you :
His Majefty the Emperor of the French and hie
Highnefs the EleAor of Wirtemberg, have this day
concluded the following treaty; the former by his
Minillcr, M.Didelut, his Envoy at this Court, and the
latter by Count Winzingerode, his Minifter of State and
Foreign Affairs, and Prefident of his Ps ivy Council :
• Article I. His Majefly the Emperor of the French
and King of Italy, guarantees to his Elcanral High-
nefs of Wirtemberg. the independence and integrity
of his territories, with all the privileges and preroga-
tives now in poffeflion of the EleAoral Houle, as
they were efiabliffied by the treaty of Luneville, and
the Conclufum of the Empire.
11. His Elehoral Highnefs, on his part, engages
to limply the French army with ten thoufand men,
including from feven to eight thoufand infantry, and
one thoufand buries.'
" This treaty I have figned ; and I will-1 muff
abide by it : but I cannot fulfil it, unlefs you fupply
me with the means. I tibmit the treaty to your con.
fideration, and require your content for the levy of
two thouland men. I alfo require the affinante of
a firm in tpecie ; not leis than half a million will be
adequate to the prefent Rate of affairs. This de-
mand does not originate with me ; the Emperor
who has fubfcribed to this treaty would have impoted
more, had I conf-inted to it, but this I refuted.

" The French Emperor has left me this afternoon,
in full perfuafion that the terms of the treaty will be
complied with to the utmost extent. Should thefe fail
in the leaf' degree, difagrecable confequences to the
country will be unavoidable. You are the xeprefen-
tatives : into your hands I commit the fare of Wir.
tembcrg. It depends upon your decifion to fare the
country, or to render it unhappy. Think maturely
on the fubjea ; I (peak to you as a father. Midake
me not: it is notmy demand—it is that of the French'
Emperor. I repeat it the third time ; mistake me
not : I b leech you to weigh it maturely, and to look
forward with calumet's to the weighty refponfibility
for which you will have to anfwer to COD, your
country, your own confciences, and to poflerity,
fhould you, in this dangerous crifis, expofe the State
to au overthrow.
"I, for my own part, will do my duty—l fvrear
it ; I will never confent to the reduaion of my houfe
to a nate of wretchednefs. I fubmit this to your
tranquil confideration. Qn this account I have pre-
pared an apartment in my caftle, where you may
plane your deliberations witho.t interruption.—
There is no time to be loft : I than remain with my

P. S. In the beginning of °Sober, Wittemberg
was compelled by impetigos circumaances to enter
into a military treaty with France. Napoleon's
fu.cegßs have (ince been the means of determining
as to the advantages of that treaty. What a change
of circumilances ! In the beginning of Oflober the
Alsatian piquets were daily apprehended at Stutgard

Neither the Hamburgh Mail, due on Wednefday
laR, nor the one which fell due yeilerday nave yet
arrived. They are an:loony looked for on account
of the critical Rate in which our troops in Hanover
have been left, by the iffue of the campaign in Mo-
ravia. Almoß all the French troops which were
in the rear and flank of Naroutoe's grand army,
have taken a northern route, and no doubts whatever
are entertained that Hanover is their °Vied. Againft
fuch numbers it would be rnadnefs toattempt to make
a Rand, and we hope means have by this time been
adopted for the retreat of our countrymen. Unlefs
fome very culpable negligence prevent it, we have no
doubt of their being able to retire inro Sweden, lhould
there be any difficulty in procuring in time the ne-
cetfary number of tranfports.
There is ever] reafon to believe that the French
Emperor has by this time returned to his Capital to
dietate what farther arrAngements he may deem ne-
ceffary refpefling the formation of new kingdoms.
He was for fome time reproached with being new
made. If he fucceed in the extenftve plan which he
has formed, he will, before he flops, be one of the
olde ft powers in Europe.
The Elalor of Wirtemburgh, as we have already
informed our Readers, is one of his prefent favourites.
What a change ! Two years ago, the Provincial Af-

Now, the Prince againtt whom they appealed has the
fame arm lifted up in his favour. In the preceding

The intelligence communicated in the Litbon let
ter, inferted in our laft, of fourteen French Chips of

on Saturday From the Port Admiral at Plymouth,
which Rate a report, that another fquadron had d-
raped from Brett, between the 15th and roth ult.
the deßination of which was unknown.

There is little doubt that the fquadron chaced by
Sir J. Duc !WORT Hi and loft by him, to the weftward
of the Canaries, was bound for the Weft Indies. It
is believed, too, that Sir J. DUCKWOILTH, after lofing
fight of them, continued the purfuit.
Admiral Sir JOHN soat.acs W failed yeller-
day from Portfmouth, with feven fail of the line, two

known—probably he goes in quell of fume cf the
ftraggling fquadrons of the enemy.

DEFENCE OF TILE COUXTET.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.

S•a—From the calamitous events that have r:.•
cently taken place on the Continent, it behoves every
caber and reflecting Briton to contemplate with cool-
nets the dangers that threaten us—and to Pigged
Poch Reps as may tend to promote and ellablifh the
fecurity of the Country. Under this impredion I beg
Mr. Editor, you will do me the favour to publith in
your Paper the following hints.
As the war in which we are engaged, mull from-
the nature of the corded, be unavoidably hafting, all
meafures of ephemeral and uncertain defence, ought
immediately to beabdicated, and fuch unly'fubflituted
as will enfure us a fubttantial and efficient proteaioa
—nor lhould the cold calculations of mercantile ava-
rice be placed its competition, or (offered to interfere,
with our national fafety. Having an inveterate and
potent euemy to contend againfl, whole inordinate
vengeance and avidity would defpoil us of every
• thing valuable we pouted, equivalent facrifices mutt
• necelfarily be made.
But as pecuniary confiderations fhould not finale
our means of defence, neither fhould any other plans
be adopted, than loch as are lealt detrimental to our
commercial pr ofperity, 'and upon this principle the
whole body of Volunteers, as they ate at prefent eon-
tingled, fhould be without delay difbanded and
abolidred. Two very cogent reafons imperioufly
call for the adoption of this meafure—thetperfea in-
adequacy of fuch a force to cope with the viaortous
legions of Bonaparte, and the incalculable injury our
commerce fuftains, by the abliraaion of individuals.
from their mercantile purfirits, for the purple of
being imperfra(7 initruited in the tile of arms.
Were the pecuniary talcs, incurred by the Volur•
leers neglating their bullock to attend their mi'itary
exercifes, collected, it would be found fully compe.
tent to the maintenance, and equipment of a very
conliderable regular force; and it is only by fuels a
force (whatever the advocates of our Volunteer fyf-
tern may tugged to the contrary) that the veterans
of France can be fuccefsfuly and effeaoady °pooled.
I believe, Mr. Editor, few people will be difpored
to difpute the zeal, courage, and difciplire of the
Ann.:jars and Rullian foldiers, and yet their armies
have been annihilated with afionifhing facility by the
French. If fuch armies are theref re incapable of re-
filling this formidable foe, can any marasecdowed with
a common portion of intellea, imagine for a moment,
that our columns of Volunteers,compcfedas they are
of the moll heterogeneous materials, and commanded
by men unveiled in military tcienee. will be able to
make an efficient refinance? I would,however, by no
means be thought to throw the leaft difparagement ow
the exertions ref thofe zealous and gallant men, who
have fo patriotically rallied round the flandard of
their country in the moment of danger. It is not the
Volunteer, but the•fyftem itfelf that is the objet of
reprobation; whatevermightheexpeaed from courage
or zeal would, I amperfiraded, be chearfully atchtevid
by the BritahVolunteers ; but courage and zealareonly
two (and not the molt elfential) of the innumerable
qualifications of a liildier—es capability of funairrias
fatigue, a coolnels and pretence of mind in battle (on-
ly to be acquired by being familiar with danger), a
cheerful fubmiffinn to, and active execution of the or.
dens of a fuperior officer ; theta ate the tirft and rag
prfia/requilites of a feldier,and theft are the palliatale
and prominent defects of the Volunteer eitablifhmeat.
From what has been obfervcd, it i, clearly evident otty
only refource is then in a regular well trained difci-
plined army ; and as the iraereate of oar regular et
tablifhment, to the event required for the proteaioa.
of the country, is abfolittely impradicable upon the
prcfent fyllem of entitling men for general and per.
manent lervice ; other ohms mull be retorted to that
will not drain, but rather replenifh the finings iliac
fupply our regular regiments with recruits fur unli-
mited fervice. For that porpole I would recommend
that all our regiments of the line, as far as they are
at prefent numbered, (viz. ico) fhould have 3 batta-
lions of Soo men each, making in the aggregate a
force of 240,000 men. Toe ill battalions to he for
general and unlimited fervice, withadditional pay,and
to be diflinguifhed Gum the reit ofthe army by a (tripes
'oflace,or fume other badge upon the arm. The fervice
of the zd to be limited to the United Kingdoms and
the Ifland-, with a fimilar charaatriftic mark of the
nature of tite'r krvices, fuch as a tingle (tripe of lace
upon the arm, and the 3d, on the principle of our
National Militia, to be confined to the protalion of •
the United Kingdoms only. The men cempofing
thefe lad Battalions, to be annually balloted for, and
to be allowed the liberty (to a certain extent each
year) to volunteer into the zi or rR Battalion. The
ad Battalions to be raifol by recruiting, and Volun-
teers from the 3d, of which the 2d Battalions already
formed, will conftitute the foundation ; and the tit
Battalions to be entirely fupplied with volunteers •
from the other two. The bounty allowed for volun.
teering to be proportioned to the extent of feraice.
If to the above, we add the Regiments of Guards,•
Cavalry, Artillery, and we than have an effec-
tive Army of 360,000 men ; and lhould this /time
be thought incompetent to the tele ity of the
country, let us then avail not laves of the enthafiatin
thatirct vades every chats of fociety in the nation, and
eitablith corps of local fervice opon found, fond, •
And trite pi incipies of war, but in the name of every ••'
thing that is dear to its, le: us not confide the la!ety •
of our laws, air liberty, and our conititution, upon
a (*pecks of indeferiptive force, organized on the prin—
ciples of lie volurteer fyltern—it we do, we are itre•
coverably loft.

-Itt laying this plan before the public, I am not in.
feelible of the r,blttlions that will be made againit
the principle of rai6tig fn large a proportion of men
by ballot, but thefe ate times that are pregnant with
difafter. and require the application of Wong mea-
fares. When the enemy is at our gates, the perfonal
fervice of every man, capable of bearing arms, is at
the difpofal of Government ; and if we Idler our re-
fources to remain doer:wit, and untouched till the fon
has adt sally landed on our thorn, we deferve the fol.

peared firmly convinced that the men had been fent
foe ewers from Scotland for the occafion, not ad.
venial', perhaps, to the poffibility that a Highland
regiment might be Rationed within 5o miles of Lon-
don.—After the fopprelfton of the rebellion in the
year 1745, a law was made for compelling the High-
landers to wear breeches, inflead of phillabegs, like
their Lowland neighbours. They were forced to
comply, but inflead of wearing the breeches where
they fbottld be, they fattened them to their (boulders.
The reßraint was fo much detefted, that none of
them would enter the army, and this cireumilanee
eadoced Government to repeal the law in quetlion,
fine which the people in the Highlands, and the
Highland regiments, have been alloyed to retain
their favourite drefs unmolefied.
Yellerday morning, at nine o'clock, the Funeral
Car which conveyed the remains of the honoured
and greatly-regretted Lord Nir.son to St. Paul's, was
taken from the King's Mews, at Charing Crols, to
Greenwich Hofpital. It was drawn by fix of the
King's Mick hnrfes, with three poftilions' in the Royal
liveries, attended by a coachman, on horfeback, and
efcorted by a ftrong detachment of the Royal Weft.
mintier Volunteers, accompanied by a part of the
band of that corps. Having depofited the nation's
relic in the place appointed, they returned to town in
the fame orderly manner in which they had marched
out, and were difmiffed at fix o'clock in the evening,
with the thanks of their Commander for their arid
attention to duty.
It was doubted whether divine fervice could be
performed at St. Paul's while the fcaffolding, ufed for
the funeral of Lord Nttsom, remained there. On
Saturday afternoon the Bithop of CH aim, the
Canon in refidence, determined that the experiment
fisould be tried. The doors leading to the fcaffolding,
as weft as every other place, were ordered to be kept
fall, and the public to be admitted into the Choir,
by the gate near the altar. The Minor Canons, the
Vietr Morals, and the young Gentlemen of the I
Choir, had on their black (ilk gloves and fcarfs, the
fame as they wore at the funeral of Lord Ns Lsori.
The cathedral being fo unexpeCtedly opened for Di-1
vine Service, only one perfon attended till the pfalms
were snarly over. The fermon was preached by the
Rev. Mr. He:wets, one of the Minor Canons. He
soot. him test, from the 16th chapter of Job, and 17th
verfe. The Rev. Gentleman embraced the oppor-
tunity of preaching a funeral fcrmon on the death of
the late Lord.

It is 'Rated, that the brave fellows who attended
the remains of their dear departed Commander w the
grave. on Thurfday lall, were, after the imprelTive
ceremony, left to fhift for themfelves ! Surely tome
tefrethment ought to have been provided for them
after the fatigues of the day. Thus, while a certain
defeription of perfons, dependant on the cathedral,
have been fuffered to gratify their avarice, by making
ut public thew of the funeral ceremonies, thofe defen-
ders of their country have been tbamefully negleEted.

Brenanithe, Dee. 33. twos.
a We came to anchor here yellerday, after en-
countering fume very bad weather ; a number of the
fleet came in two days before us, but a great many
are miffing, of which, I fear, bad accounts will be
received. Two or three are reported to have been
101 l near the Helder, or the Tete!, with Come of the
sth foot on board. A brig, with honks on board,
ran down, and a number more, that no accounts
have been received of. For the Litisfadion of all our
friends in the Highlands, dm. I with you to requell
the Editors of the Newfpapers to announce the fee
arrival of the 9; ft Highland Regiment in the River
Wefer, off Brenterlehe, on the 27th and 29th init."

The Ifabella tranfport, whore loft off the Texel
has been announced, had three companies ofthe 89th
regiment on board. She was 101 l on the I sth nit. the
foldiers and feamen remained en the rigging and
Gamuts tke whole night. In the morning boats were
fent off to Cave them ; bu-, it is with deep regret we
hate, that Captain &arson, Enilgn and Adjutant
Goonace, Militant Surgeon GllllBOll, Quarter.
/defter Campeau., one hundred foldiers and it/MCII,
and ten women and.children, were loft. The reit are
prifoners on board the Brutus, Admiral Kmaaar's
(hip, where they are treated with great humanity.

Nearly moo French prifonere have lalt week been
added to the number already confined at Norman
Croft.

Friday noon, while a baker left his balket at a door
in the Minories, to fettle an account, krne perfons
unobferved put a child, about a month old, into it,
and the ►aker returning, twang his ballet on his
asoulder, withont obferving the addition which had
been made to its contents. The infant, however,
awakened or hurt by the violence of the motion, be-
gan to cry ; the man, not dreaming whence the found
proceeded, thought himfelf bewitched or haunted,
and hurried home to EMI Smithfield itt the greaten
trepidation. The innocent occafion of his alarm was
then dircovered and taken core of, while the pal&
officers fet out in parfait of its unnatural parent.

TN. STORY.—The tremendous gale of Thurfday
night has done great damage to the (hipping on dif-
ferent parts of the coat(.—At Dover, it was fo ftrong
as to carry away the piles at the pier, which had
been placed to keep off an enemy.
At Portfmneth the (hip Cumberland, bound to the
Weft Indies, was run athwart hank by the Peggy,
which carried away her bowfprit, and other damages.
The Peggy, after getting clear,was driven on (hore, off
Ryde,in the Me of Wight, and yet remain'. Hopes are
entertained of her being got off. The (hip Bear ran on
board the (hip Suffix, obliged her to cut the cable ;
(love in Ade channel : and Come other damage. The
Friends drove during the gale, and loft one anchor.
The Speculator was driven on (bore, occafioned by
the Peggy running on board her, which damaged her
confiderably. She remains, and, in all probability,
will not get off. The Retreat. Bottoutxo, was run
foul of by the Lnrd Nelfon ; carried away her cut-
water, and (Whined other damage. A iceman be-
longing to the Chip Nereus, Captain %OAK IN wa.,
in the aft of veering away the cable, hurt in fuch a I
manner, as to occahon his death. He was entangled
with the cable, and had his leg torn from his body.
Among the many extraordinary interpofitions of
PROVIDIIIM the following circumftance ftands al-
moft unparalleled :—During the height of the ft orm
on Thurfday morning, a flack of chimnies, belong-
ing to the houfe of Mr. Bignell, of !Zhepherd's Bufb,!
without the !lighten notice to afford preparation for
efcape, fell through the roof of the houfe into hit
bed room, with a molt tremendous and awful craft,
breaking a beam which lay lengthways over the bed,
through which it was forced, and at latt !diked againft
the fluor ; the other part deftroying at the fame
infant a child's bed, placed immediately oppofite.—
The ends of the wall tortunately remained need. At
the fira alarm, Mr. Bignell dire6tcd his aid to the
proteftion of his youngell child (only two months
old) lying by his fide, and fricceeded at length in clap-
;rig from the ruin:, with his wit,: much bruited, and
the infant unhurt , and afterwards, in extricating the
child in the other bed from acs perilous fituation, who
had remained A:en during the whole of this terrific
tiene. Wlrcin it is added, that the brick-work, wood,
lath, and mortar that fell, weighed nearly two tons,
it will give all imperf,:a idea of this mi callous efcape,
and Gil the minds of thole who are unacquainted with
this family, with gratial, rr chit Panto. who, in a
moment of extreme danz•zr, vin4s hi. creatures with
compaffion, and mercifully thick's them by his power.

&itorday night a hew Comedy, from the !mu of
Mr ALLIKCHAPA. the Author of the Marriar re-
NO, and feveral other dramatic prodmii-n., was
produced at this Theatre, for the firs time, under
the title of 77ae tkoetantie Layer; or, Leg awl Fouta
It is onneeciTary ro go at any length into the fable,
or the incidents that make up the play, as probably
it will never again be reprefented :—Suffice that
Peerlefi, the Romantic Lover, is entitled to ioboool.
on the day of his marriage, provided the will of his
uncle is complied with ; but in default the ellate de-
volve: to lee:flon, main to Pterlefi. One of the con-
ditions is, that he !hall marry a woman with a for tune
equal to his own. Another provillon in the will i.„
that Sir Matthew Maud 'ens, the guardian of Prev/./;,
gall receive a large legacy on the day the marriage
is folemnized, who, in order to obtain the money, is
continually fpeaking in praife of matiimony, and ea.
deavours to promote a marriage between Petrleft an 1
I Lady Frames, his ward. Peerkfi, however, conceives
a romantic attachment for Antonia, the daughter of
Truthlue, the Captain of a privateer, who, having left
her unprovided for, the fupports !serail by painting
portraits, and in that way becomes acquainted with
Peer.'efr. The father returns, however, feparates the
lover:, and Peerkfi engages Zachary Search, an igno-
rant Yorkfhireman, who has come to town to make
a fortune by finding runaway ladies,loa pocket-book:,
and gold watches advertifed in the newfpapers, to find
her, promifing to give him toad. Search is timed:.
ful, and Tratblat finding Pserlefi to be a man of ho-
nour, agrees to the match, and, from the proceeds of
a rich prize he has taken, is enabled to give her the
required fortune, and the play is concluded. There
is fornething like an under plot between Lady Frames
and Irtflon, which, we believe, from what we law,
alto ends in their marriage. -
As there is really little in this Comedy defervhig.
commendation, and we feel no pleafure in the failure
of literary adventure, we fhall he very brief in out
remarks refpeeing it.— For all thateould be done by
good acing, Mr. Auditoria,* has to thank the per:
formers of Saturday night, who confiituted the Whole
comic ftrength of the haute. In the charaeters.
there is no other novelty than what May be conceived
to proceed from a Atoned outline of comething we
have feen before. Where the language is not inlipid
and common place, it is costae and vulgar, and the
piece is altogether dellitute of interell. The fenti-
ments difperfed here and there, are amiable, and there
is fame humour in the Yorklbire clown ; but the pob•
lic is tired of the provincial flaw,' of (uch charade's.
Long before the dole of the performance, the voice
of doapprobation was.tuo loud to be withtlood. and
the curtain fell amidil groans and hitfes, that totally
drowned the rattle of tingliag pai:at, kept up by the
friends of the author to the end of the chapter. The
Prologue, folemnly delivered byMr.CLa sat owr, bad
nothing to recommend it; and the Epilogue, made
np of Yorkfhire wit, of very plain fabric, fpoken by
Estill', did little towards refluring the good humour
of the audience. Another Play was obliged to be
given out for Monday night.—The Theatre was of
couefe well filled.
