?RIME LkTTE.I3.

PAR I s,Dr.c. I.—Among other rumours and ri ins
for conquering England, it is now reported, in the
Confular codes, that both the armaments at Breit
and in Oat Tel are dertined.to invade Ireland, and
clabilh its independence, Ihnuld they be able to ef-
cape the BT i!ith cruizers ; and that the centre of the
Army of England is nor to make any attempt until
a French army, augmented with difaffeZied La,
can attack Engizt,d from Ireland at tlt: fame time
it is affai:ed from France. The armaments in
)1,111,i,tg are, however, dellined, if pr (lade, to make
a diverron nn the eallern coot of England, to
create cool-Winn, and to preveat reinforcements be-
im lent to Irchold. Sik:h are Lclieved to be the
:'a-noes in Om vA" our u:ater namp::'gn, fn ace

the FIRST CONSUL, after his late return from the
coat, has cnnfulted CARNOT, MARIGNY, and other
able s.nt,ineers, and naval Oflicer‘, who have con-
vinced biro of the imp, aaica!,,lity Of conquering
EnOand but from Ireland, in the prefent fituatiun
of our navy. What is certain is, that the fubjuga-
tion of England is not fpokcn of by BONArAvrt him-
filf with the f,me confidence as fix months ago; and
the vehemence of the abufe in the Mortiterir againft
your King and country, convinces all impartial men,
that the nasr COhSOL has, lot the prefent, no other
means to revenge his (lir-appointment, and to flew the
inefficacious confidency of his hatred.
Count MARKOSr intended to return to his country
by way of England, and demanded permiffion to
embark at Dunkirk or Calais, but was refilled.—
Since he is no longer here in any official capacity, he
cannot take a ftep without being followed by the
(pies of the police ; and TALLEYRAND has even de-
clared to the Ruffian Charge d'Affaires, Mr. d'Oss-
earL, that the FIRST CoNsuL would hear with plea-
lure the departure of Count Mac KOFF, without forc-
ing him to have recourfe to his hlinifter of Police, and
enforce the laws of the Republic againit foreigners,
whole flay is not agreeable, or who are fufpeaed. It
is Paid that the courier, whom M. d'Orasarn fent
yoflerday to Sr. Pereaburgh, carried the particulars
of TALLEYRAND'S demand and threat. In the mean
time, every thing is ready for Count MARKOSS'S de-
parture : he yetterday took leave of atl the Members
of the foreign diplomatic Corps, who, to-day, have
returned him his vifit of adieu. It is, however,
thought here, that the Count weds a courier from
St. Peterfburgh, before he leaves Paris, and that his
remaining yet here is by order of his fovereign, who,
many fuppofe, has not yet given up his philanthropic
intent, to reflore peace between England and France.
A congrefs at Bruffels is fpoken of, where all dia.
greements between the different States of Europe are
to be finally fettled. Warlike preparations continue
here, however, with unabated fury, in the midi} of
an unufual fcarcity of money, dearoefs of provifions,
and general aifcontent.

HAMBURGII, DEC. 13.—.. We have at laft, with
great difficulty, made up the IA of the four millions,
extorted from us by the armed French banditti, or
rather by their reprefentative, General BERTHIIt.
This money, in our prefent difirefsful fituation, caufes
more complaints than the payment of any former de-
mand ; becaufe our Senate is furced to impofe new
taxes, when the ftagnation, if not annihilation of our
trade, makes it impoffible for many of our citizens to
difcharge their former ones. We pay now ten times
more impolls than we did ten years ago, and this
augmentation is entirely owing to the different funs
which France has plundered from our neutral city
fince 1795. You can hardly believe it when I tell
you, that General BERTHIER declared, in full Se-
nate, and defired it to be taken down in writing,
" that the Film. Consul. was determined never to
make a peace with England (if he thould not fucceed
in conquering it) before the Kiriu ofGISAT BRITAIN
has promifed to repay both the prefent and any future
loans France finds neceirary to raife during itroccu-
pation of Hanover." An official note from the French
Minilter REINHARD has fince repeated this declaration.
You have, no doubt, heard of the late difagree.'
ment between Auflria and Bavaria, concerning Ober-
haus, a large fortified village, claimed alike by both
States, as appertaining to their refpeßive indemni-
ties. By the reprefcntations of the Ruffian Minifter
at Munich, the Elator was forced to renounce, for
the prefent, his pretenfions. It is, however, believed
every where in Germany, that neither France nor
Pruffia will Puffer, without refentment, the threats of
Auftria, and the fuhmiffion of Bavaria, particularly
as the latter has aged in confequence of the determi-
nations of the Courts of St. Cloud and Berlin.

In Ruffia, depend upon it. the politics are entirely
agairdl France, and General HEDOUVILLI was ready
to depart, when, on the lath of November, he re-
ceived a courier, to remain in RuiEa until further
orders. This has tattled new fpeculations, and hopes,
that negociajons for peace bet wt.en France and Eng-
land may continue to be carried on through the me-
diation of Rallis.

GuNsauec, Dec. s.—The Eleaor Palatine of Ba•
varia had, is is well known, received, as a part of
his Indemnifications, the Imperial Prelacy of Kay-
e rfheim. The E►treaoe, however, conceived the
Territorial Sovereignty of the Village of Oberhaufen,
near Weiffenhnrn,' and not far from Ulm, which vil•
lage appertains to this Prelacy, to be vetted in him,
as Margrave of BVRCAU ar.d accordingly lent an
officer and Come foldiers to take poffeffion of it. In
confequence of this, 300 Infantry, and too Light
Houle, were, in the courfe of IA month, detached
from the Bavarian Gariifnn of Ulm to Qberhaufen,
to difpnliefs the Ala ian Garrifnn ; but the Officer
who commanded it declared, that he would Conner be
cut off with his few troops to the left man, than aban-.
don the roll amgned to him. He, jinwever, propofed,
that 7.n Officer ar.d fix men nn each fide fhould con•
jointly occupy ti.e village of Oberhaufen, till their re.
fpeftive CcAnts litould have adjufled the difpute. The
propofal was accepted, and the Bavarian Troops re-
turned to leaving the Officcr and fie men, ac-
cording to the agrce:ment. •
The day bcimc )ellerday an order arrived from
General Cu A I- rst cC, cuninandii.g in the Tyrol, for
th•: Govtrn•nent her•Y to I:rovide quarters and protti

(ions for twenty companies of the regiffttnt of the
Eleaotal Prince of Wurtemberg (late Bender) and
twelve companies of Tyrolefe chaffeurs, v.ho were
on their mach to take poEirion of the village of
Oberliaufeli, an.l repel force by force, in cafe the
Attftrian G.:rrifor. in Ulm fhould make an att.ick on
thzm. But an hour agn an Eflafette arrived from
the Aullrian Officer in Oberhaufen, with an account
that the Bavarians had voluntarily withdrawn from
Ulm.
