Although the report of Il comfortable deficit

does not feem any immediate danger that the
imperial republican treafury will be exhauted.

private letters from Cadiz, that fun confiitng

The deficit of forty millions of Horins in this
years budget of the Batayian government has
excited the attention of the 6rf conful, who has
coniulted citizens Talleyrand and Marbois, with
the councillor of fate of the fiction of finances,
as to the be,t means TO make good this deficit.
Report fays that the plan of citizen Talleyrand
has been adopted, and the French Miniter, Sc
knoxville, at the Hague, has received orders to
invite the Dutch directory to put it into execute
on, notwithstanding the Clamours of the mer-
camille ariftocrats of Amterdam and Rotterdam,
whole Anglo mania is proverbial in Holland as
well as in France.
With regard to the landing of RufIian troops
in Ireland, it is only neceflary to obferve, that
minilters, however inclined and ready they might
be to violate the contribution, would not be 70
daring and 70 loft to every principle offound po-
licy, as to content to fuch meafure, without
the fanGtion of parliament.
A Gentleman who came pailenger in the Ma
Citrate, which arrived at Weymouth few days
ago, from the Cape of Good Hope, has COM
municated feveral interefing particulars refpec-
ting the affairs of that colony. He fays that pri-
OF to his coming away on the 4th OF April, the
cape was almoG in fate of open infurrection,
which difpohtion was greatly encouraged by a
report that an expedition had faxed againt that
iettlement from England. The inferior clalIes
to man, were ready to rife in favor of the En-
gliih. 1t is added that feveral perfons, who had
been bold enough to declare themfelves parti-
zans of the Britih, had been apprehended, and
that about twenty were convicted of this offence
and ihot. The utrnon force at the cape, was
1000 men, but they were of fuch mixed def
cription, and 70 badly difcplined, that it would
not require half that number to take pofefiion of
the place.
We can allure our readers, Gays the Morning
Chronicle) from indfputable authority, that the
king of Sweden has formally intimated to all his
minilters reGdent at foreign courts, that he pc
remptorily refufes to recognize the newly &C
CURED title of Bonaparte, as emperor of the
French. An official communication TO this eff
feet has been made to all the courts, and that
conveyed in itrong and energetic terms.
The protect of Louis XVIII. which we copi-
ed on Saturday from the Moniteur, proves to
be a icandaous fabrication. The French prn-
ces and their friends all regard this paper as
forgery from Taeyrand's Office, to leilcn the
effect of the real protect when it fhall appear.
We are aGured that our government has re-
ceived from the Swedifh minifer here, a formal
notification on the part of his Sovereign, expref-
fling in the frongeit language, the determination
not to recognize the new title of emperor of the
French, aiumed by Bonaparte. a iimilar COM
muncation is alto ftated to have been made TO-
reign courts at which his Swediih majcity has
ambafiadors. tits highly probable that the Ca
binet of Stockholm would not have purified a
line of conduct 70 very bold, unleis fairly fancti-
oned by the appreciation of the emperor of Ruf:
