" The First Secretary of the King's Cabinet being duly autho-
rized by decree of the Ist inst. Informs the Director of the Cus-
toms, that it is the positive intention of his Majesty, that provi-
sionally no Ameriean vas& shall be suffered to enter any of the
ports of this kingdom, whatsoever their cargo may consist of,
or from whatsoever port they may have sailed; whether they
have been in Engl.ul, or have been overhauled on their voyage
by the English or not ; but that these ships shall go to sea again
as soon as possible, without having discharged any part of their
cargo."
The Decree likewise specially charges the Director
to give the necessary orders that the above positive in-
tention of his Majesty be executed punctually.

AMSTERDAM, FEBRUARY 2.
The French are already at Dordrecht ; and it is
confidently said that General Oudinot has orders to
take military possession of the country from Nimeguen
along the river, the islands between the Scheldt and
Maese, and the Zealand islands ! The consternation
is great on 'Change.
FEBRUARY 3.—A Commission is to be established
here, to investigate the importation of produce ; so
that such as cannot be proved to come from neutral
countries shall be condemned.

FEBRUARY s.—Marshal Verhuelt is to come here
as Governor-General, &c. Business is at a stand, as
people are afraid of domiciliary visits !
FEBRUARY 6.—lt appears certain, that the first fa-
milies in Brabant have received intimation to send
their boys, from eight to twelve years of age, to the
Lyceum at Paris, in order to be educated there. Our
stocks decline more and more ; the 7 per cents. are at
50 per Gent.—and we continue in anxious expectation
of what is to take place.

RIGA, JANUARY 20.
In consequence of intelligence having been received
from Petersburgh, that in the ensuing summer the
navigation of the Russian ports is likely to be ob-
structed by considerable difficulties, an important rise
in the price of Colonial produce is expected ; while
all inland commodities will, in all probability, experi-
ence a very considerable fall.
CONSTANTINOPLE, DECEMBER n 5.
We have not, for this long time, received any in-
telligence
from the army ; and it would seem, that it
has been agreed upon by both armies to pass the pre
sent season in winter quarters. It is reported, that
the Grand Vizier has already proceeded to Adri-
anople. The Turkish fleet, which was stationed off
the mouth of the Bosphorus, is now lying at anchor
off the arsenal in this place.

VIENNA, JANUARY 24.
Our Court Gazette of this day contains the follow-
ing article Count Shuwaloff, Lieutenant Gene-
ral and Adjutant General of his Majesty the Empe-
ror of-all the Russias, arrived here on the 12th inst.
on an extraordinary mission from Petersbuigh, and
had, on the 15th, his first audience of his Imperial
and Royal Majesty."

An uncommon exchance of couriers between our
Court and that of Pctersburgh, was observed before
the arrival of Count Snuwaloff, and has since attained
an additional degree of activity.
