BERLIN, Avo.l2.—We are informed that Turkey
is arming with the greatest activity, and that for-
midable armies are already put in motion. People
ssreibe to this circumstance the retrograde move-
ment of the Russian forces.

hl "minx, Atte. 22.—The Chronicle of the
European Confederation contains the following
!theme of a new kingdom of the Rhine :—lt would
be composed of Lorraine, Alsace, Franche.Comte,
sod the countries bn the left bank of the Rhine,
bleb still form the department of Mont Tonnerre,
or the departments of the Upper and Loner Rhine,
of la Meurthe, la Moselle, la Meuse, les Vosges,
Iloute•Saone, Doubs, Mont Jura, and Mont
Tonnerre.

These ten Departments are so situated, as to form
a fine and powerful kingdom, with a population of
three millions and a half of inhabitants, which would
render its future Sovereigns as strong as the King of
Bavatil. This new kingdom would powerfully con.
tvibute to the end which the high Allied Powers have
proposed to themselves by disabling France from
doing mischief for many centuries, and insuring to
Europe a long and stable peace. The fortresses of
Besancon, Strasburg, Landau, Schelestadt, Befort,
Mentz, Verdun, Montmedi, Metz, Thionville, B.:c.
would plate the kingdom in a respectable situation,
and would he so many bulwarks against France,
and serve, at tie same time, to defend the kingdom.
BRUSSELS, Auo. 28.—Accounts from Vienna of
the 18th, contain the following The marriage
of his Imperial Highness the Archduke Charles will
not be celebrated till after the return of the Court
from Milan. The abode of this Prince at Mentz,
seems to have, independently of his military com-
mand, a very important political object. It is pre.
sumed that Lorraine will return under the dominion
of Austria ; it was the cradle of the Imperial House,
and might form a thirst appenage, under the Arch.
duke Charles."

Letters from Madrid of the 12th of this month,
affirm that the Spanish Government insists in the
most urgent manner that the fortresses of Belle-
garde, Perpignan, Colisure, and Port Vendee, in
Rousillon, as well as those of St. Jean Pied-de-
Port, and Bayonne, shall be garrisoned by Spanish
troops.

M ;LAN, AuG. 15.—Letters from Rome mention
that Gaeta has surrendered.

BASLE, Ara. 19.
ORDIA OF TIIE DAY, AUG. 17.

" I have received from the Commander in Chief of
the Troops of the Confederation, the commission,
h,nourable both to me and to you, my bretheren in
arrne, to co-operate with all our might to repress the
arrogance of a rapacious enemy.
" We are destined to do, upon the right batik of
the Rhine (in concert with his Imperial Highness
the Archduke John of Austria), us much injury ars
postibk to the common enemy, who, solely out of
covetousness, has at different times treated the un-
fortunate city of Basle in a manner unheard-of even
in times of war.

" Let us then display the courage and the senti-
ments which become Swiss, and the fatigues and the
dangers to which w•e shall he exposed will be lighten-
ed by the conviction that we have done our duty to
our country.

" LICIITENH %FIN,
Colonel of the Confeclei.ltion and Ili i,sulier."

CAnr.soung, AUG. 22.—Yesterday morning Jo-
TOIIIP Bonaparte passed through here. He came from
France, and was accompanied by a Captain in the
Gel rice of Wirtewherg.
I.Aussxsc, Au°. 13.—The residence of Madame
Hortense near Genera causes much uneitsiness

among the neighbouring inhabitants. She writes and

receives a salt number of letters, speaks of events iu

• tone of confidence ntlich excites astonishment, and

finds every body very unreasonable whose opinions

differ from her own.

VIENNA, Au&. 17.—Some persons believe that
the Danish troops, though their apparent destination
is to France, have in reality one that is very dif-
ferent. According to their opinion, the Danish
troops are destined to proceed by a circuitous route
to another country, whose relations would change
for a second time. The circumstance that the indem-
nifications of the King of Denmark are not yet duly
arranged, seems to give some weight to this opinion.
Double vigilAnce is now exercised on the side of Ser.
►ia• The strictest orders have been given not to
!lave any communication with the Serviang ; for
which reason (especially as it is affirmed for certain,
That they can expect no assistance from Russia) they
are not likely to be so successful in their new insur-
rection against the Turks as they were in the
former.
BoLooNa, AUG. Io.—By an Edict of Cardinal
Gonsalvi, all the codes introduced by the late Go-
vernment are abolished.

The Austrian troops have almost wholly quitted compensated, in a considerable degree, for the dis.:
