Thursday, from a cruize off Brest; and the ACHATtf, 18 guns,
with twelve light transports front Scilly, to embark cavalry for

Cadiz.—Arrived the BLOOD tiovNia gun-brig, from Lisbon ; and

Ushaut. A heavy sea broke over her, and stove in her quarter.
She was forced to keep her hands constantly at the pumps during
the night ; and had nut the violence of the storm al)at, d in the

LITTER FROM THE JUNTA TO DOCTOR DON JUAN "X

CASTEL LI.

The views of this Junta not being confined to the
restoring to the Indiana the rights of which they have
been deprived by an intolerable abuse, they have re-
solved to give to that people an active influence in
the National Congress, in otcl:r that, concurring of
themselves in the constitution which is to govern
them, they may feel the advantages of their new situa.
tion, and that the horrible depression under which
they have long existed may be forgotten. The Junta,
therefore, resolve. that, without prejudice to the De-
puties who are still to be elected in all the cities and
towns, there shall be chosen in each Intendency, that
of Cordova and Salta excepted, a Representative for
the Indians, who, being of the same quality, and ap.
pointed by themselves, shall appear in the Congress
with a weight of character and representation egnal
to the other Deputies. The form of this election may
present many difficulties, which are only to he over.
come by a knowledge of the state of the towns, and
the actual wishes of their inhabitants. For this rea-
son the Junta avoids prescribing any form of election,
leavihg this point entirely at the will and prudence of
your Excellency, who Will arrange the forms of the.
election in such a manner, that pernicious.errors may
be avoided, and no impeJiment arise to the Meetiag
of the Congress. The ban will only recommend
that the election may fall on Indians of knownepeo.
bity, and the best informed men among them, in order
that they may neither dishonour their high trust, nor
present embarrassments in the imprtant discussions
which are about to be agitated in the Congress ; the
Junta at the Same time direct their resolution to be
published in solemn form, that the natives, convinced
of the interest which the Government takes in ame-
liorating their condition, and restoring their .imprq.
scriptible rights, may endeavour on their part to labour
with zeal and firmness in the great work of general
felicity.—Goa guard your Excellency many years.

FRENCH PAPERS.
PARIS, APRIL 26.

Yesterday his Majesty held a council of Finance.
for the kingdom of Italy. In the evening was repre-
sented at the Court Theatre, the tragedy of Bajazet,
which his Majesty, contrary to expectation, did not
attend.
On the 24th, after the Levee, the following Gentle•
tlemen, being charged by their Sovereigns with com-
plimenting his Majesty on the birth of the King of
Rome, were admitted to private audiences—Baron
Kaas, from the King of Denmark Prince Ponia•
touski, from the King of Saxony ; Baron Ferette,
Grand Marshal of the Grand Duke of Frankfort. It
is asserted that the fetes which will be given an ac•
count of the birth of the King of Rome, will continue
during the greater part of the month of June.

We have received German Papers to the 17th
tilt. They state that fresh overtures of peace have
been made by Russia to the Ottoman Porte ; but in
the mean time two Turkish frigates are cruizing in
the Archipelago, collecting tribute and voluntary con-
tributions to carry on the war. Letters from Vienna
state, « That the POPE has recently been again assailed
by the promises and menaces of BONA PA RTE'S agents
to resign the Pontifical dignity, which he had in a
firm but temperate manner refused."
We have received Charlestoa and other American
Papers to the 31st ult. but wi:h the exception of the
revival of an American fabrication that there is a
large French fleet cruizing in the West Indies, they
contain nothing important. They were brought by
the Eliza, which has arrived at Cork from Charleston.
The Captain of the Eliza, who sailed from Charleston
on the 31st March, states, that three days previous po
his departure, a French privateer, chased by a British
cruizer, obtained shelter in that pert. His Majesty's
ship had not permission to enter ! So much for Arne-
