FROM THE PARIS PAPERS.

Ilinttr, Mmtcm 16.—Government has eon-
Rrmed the refolution of the Council of War by
which Citizen 11•RTSINCK, defined for the com-
mand o: the Batavian fquadron, is nominated Vice
Admiral ; it is, however, doubtful whether the
fitiadroti, under the prefent citcumflances, will
have our ports. One of our Gazettes contains
tie following article—" The m-fE4ge of the King
g of England was conveyed to Paris by exprefs.
" This unexpeeted event couldnot but be followed
•• by the fpeedieft refolutions on the part of the
" French Government. We are not acquainted
" with the extent of the meafures which have in
• confequenee been decreed, but we are allured
" that difpolitions no lefs vigorous than thole of
England have already been made ; and that, in
" cafe of holtilities,aU parts of the European coaß
" fubjea to its influence, and which may facilitate
• the means of defeent, will be immediately co-
vered with troops."
Several Couriers from Paris have fucceffively
arrived here with difpatches refpeaing the prefent
Rate of affairs. Preparations and military difpofi-
tiring are about to be carried into execution from
the mouth of the Meufe to the Texel.

BANKS OE THE MAIIII. MARCH 21..--WETM
difputec have arifen between the Court of Stock-
holm an.l the Duke of Mecklenbourg Schuerio,
in retard to the Port and Toll of Warnemtinde,
on the Bala:. This port, which belongs to Sweden,
was mortgaged to the Duke of Mecklenbourg at
the commencement of the 18th century. tor a
crafiderable funs, and the latter at. the fame
time, was put in pacific's of it. The Cabinet
of Stockholm offers to pay the font lent. and de-
mands to be again pot in pollitflon of the province
of Warnemtinde. But the Duke of Mecklenbourg
d;mands alto to be indemnified for the 'rent co-
ncoct% he has incurred fur inspzriney the Port.
and increafing its revenues ;—and as Sweden
will not conform to his defile, be has requelbsd
the posse:hal intetiention of the Cone: of Berlins
which has siren Lim a very fatisfaEtory sayer.

r VIENNA, MAUR Lt.—Though the letters from
C4lnttantinople of February 55, infinuate that the
evacuation of Egypt by the Englilh has taken
place, there is fume reafon for believing, that it
has not yet been effeded, and that Lord ELGIN'
before his departure did not complete the reconci-
liation of the Porte with the Bcys. It is prefumed
with fume degree of probability, that fome inci-
dent has occurred to change the determination of
the Court of London in this refped, and which
produced the fudden departure of Lord act a, on
the arrival of General 13,t var. In fupport of this
opinion, a circumftance is mentioned, which feems
clearly to indicate that the Englifh Minifter was
not Very well fatisfied with the Porte—We mean
the falute or rather fright, which he gave to the
inhabitants of Conflantanople in the night, when the
frigate on board which he took his paffage failed
from the harbour. Lord Etats was well aware
that it was contrary to ufage, and contrary even
to the will of the Porte, expreffed by the Itsis Er-
MIDI. Would he thus have braved that will, had
he been fatisfied with the iliac of the negotiations ti

AMERICA.

NACHEZ GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, Jaa 5, t ioj•

Under the date of the a dth inftant, the Intendant General
of the Provinces tells me, that the Citizens of the United States
can have no commerce with his Majefty's fuhJedia, they only
having the free navigation of the river for the exportation of
the fruits and produce of their eitablilhment to foreign coun-
tries, and the importation of what they may want f z them
As lea I charge you, fo far as refpeds you, to be zealous and
vigilant, with partieulat care that the inhabitants neither pus,
chafe nor fen any thing to the lihr4sottomed brats,
barges, or any other foull Tetras. that may go along the river
dcfUned for the American poffedoos, or proceeding from
them, and that they <Dall be informed of it, for their due cow
plianee of the fame. (Signed)

Nsw You, Fats. t 7 the Maria arrived at
Phaidelphia from New Orleans, which the left the
t7th January, we learn, that our Government
difpatch-boat bad reached that place. and that the
Intendant, fo far from relaxing or regarding the
recommendation of the Chevalier Di Yawl" to
reflore the right of depofit, treated his interfe-
rence with the utmoft contempt, and perfifled in
his condua with unabated vigour. It is further
Rated, that it was the nniverfal opinion. at New
Orleans, that the Intendant was skiing from pofi
tine inftruaions from his Court, which were con-
fidered as originating from France. and that both
political parties at Nachez were for immediate and
energetic meafures of redrefs.
The General Alfembly of Virginia has entered
into a refolotion againft the (hutting of the port
of New Orleans, which has palled both Houfes of
the Legifiature of that province.

NUM Yalta, FIB. t.--The Hon. Mr. MONROZ
arrived here the day before yelerday from Well-
ington. He is txpeaed to embark immediately
on his miinon to France and Spain, relative to
New Orleans.

Captain HAYLT arrived at New York on the
13th of February, after a (bort parer. He failed
in company with a French fio gun fhip,cosnmand-
ed by Admiral Lvroaf, bound to Cape Nichol*
Mole. There were in company three other French
lihips of 74 grins, one of which was bound to
France, and the other two to Peet Itcpublicain.—
Abolit a week previous to his departure two 74
gun Ibips arrived at the Cape, from Toulon, hay
esoo troops on board. A fleet of fifteen fail
and boo troops were hourly espedcd. In the
neighbourhood of the Cape the amen tranquillity
prevailed, and co engagement had taken place for
a confiderable time betwixt the Negroes and the
French. The yellow fever had nearly fubfided.
In the neighbourhood of Leogane and Port-au-
Prince the Negroes were in confidttable numbers,
but it was expelled that the reinforcements which
were daily looked for would enable tlf Ftc nett :o
drive them to their lamas.
