Notwithltanding the afertion in our papers, that
the Ottoman Porte would follow the example of Eng-
land and Raffia, in not acknowledging Narozeos I
as Emperor of the French, an official letter from
Conflantinople, of Augull ty Rates, that the Reis
Effendi, as foon as the Turkifb Government was in-1
formed of the change in the title of the Chief of the
French nation, fent for General Baur; and told
him, on the part of the Grand Signior, that he was
ordered to compliment his Excellency in theft words:
" That the Divan, but particularly Sultan 13 List,
was much interefted in every thing that concerned
his Imperial Majedy, and which could confirm the
friendfhip fo happily fubfiffing between France and
Turkey ; and that, particularly ince the journey of
Monfieur Jot/sear, the former confidence and har-
mony between the two empirec were fully reamed."
The Moniker alerts, that the number of young
men to be called out this year will be much lets than
in the preceding.
There is no doubt but the fortifications of Mentz
will be difmantled. Since the Rhine forms the boun-
dary, and Gaffe!, oppofite Mentz, on the right bank
of the Rhine, is reltored to the Empire, that place
can no longer be conftdered as a formers againfl
Germany, unkfs that part which extends clofe
along the Rhine were fortified, which would caufe •
very heavy expence, without obtaining an adequate
end. Hence it is believed, that the French Govern.
meat will reject the latter plan, and avail itfelf of the
advantages which the fitoation of Mentz affords, for
making it a commercial city, which may in time be
come very important.

OMIT, OCT. I.—The Marquis de Mutes, Am•

France, on his return from Aix-la-Chapelle, vifited
the new naval ellablifhment at Antwerp, and Mier-
wards took the road r .and the Flemifli coall, and
Viewed all the camps, from Offend to Boulogne.
His Excellency the Aulirian Ambaffador, Connt
Cozzarzsi., has taken the fame road. Both thefe
Ambaffadors had been favoured with the Emperor's
particular permit inq to vifit not only the camps on
the coaft, but the flotillas intended for the invation of
England.
We are affured that the French Government in-
tend to fend the Hanoverian Legion to Italy, after it
has palled Come time at Lyons.
On the other hand, a number of French troops
will, in a Ihort time, march towards Hanover, as a
war with the Northern Powers is not improbable.—
It is even Paid, that feveral regiments of cavalry,
chaffeurs, huffars, and fome picked battalions of in•
Pantry, to the number of 25,000, have already re-
ceived orders to march to Hanover, and to augment
the army under General BELNaDOTTE. Reinforce-
ments have been, at the fame time, Cent to the armies
in Italy, which are to take anew pofition.
The troops on the coaft, encamped behind the
Downs, have felt the e ffeds of the changeable weather
of this feafon. There are many lick in the military
hofpitals here, at Mend, Nieuport, and Bruges.
According to lett,. rs fromthe coaft, the Emperor
was not expeded there fooner than between the isth
and math intl. though his arrival thera had been every
day reported. • His Majefly intends to review again
all the encampments, beginning with thofe above and
below Mend, and extending as far as Boulogne.—
The naval armaments will be infpefted at th.e fame
time. The common opinion is, that the expedition
will fet fail for England. In the mean time, the plan
to concentrate all the naval forces in the harbour of
Boulogne continues without interruption. A flrong
divifion, which yetlerday failed from Mend, has for-
tunately reached that deftination. The Batavian
gun-boats arrived from Fluffing will loon Beer the
fame condo. The Englifh are prevented by the bat-
teries on the emit, and by the flying artillery, from
olaftruding this jundion.
