what we have already ftated, relative to the ceAruGi

the fame papers we learn that Capt. Wright who COM

the enemy gun-bcats the entrance of the Morbi-

who landed Georges, Pichegr, and their aiociaes On
the French coat and is deicrbed as the perlon who
eHected his ecape from the Temple with Sir Sydney
Smith, and afterwards Ierved under that gallant officer
In Egypt 1t cannot, .urely, be in the contemplation
OF the French Government to bring Capt VIZ. hit to
trial For, admitting that he has been employed
in The iervce alluded he has done nothing that is not
perfectly jufiable upon the moG rigid principle Of

for regulating the mode of the preentaton for public

conierrng the title Of Field Martial Of the Empire on
eighteen General OEcers whole names are mentioned
the Decree given in another part of our paper We
have alto extracted from the official journal an article
descriptive OF the in which the princes of France
(as they termed, and High Officers OF the Empire

Note, which planned OF herecent conduct OF France
IN violating the German neutrality, was on the 7th u

The Delegate for Bohemia and Austria declared
verbally His Imperial Majelty had conceived he
might expect that the French Government would f.,r
have notified to the Diet the facts and rearons which
had induced, and, as it is fuppofcd might iuRify the
iezure OF Perions or the German territory in March
lait His Maeity therefore thought thas there could
be no objection to application to the French CO.

rather the commands of the Emperor NAPOLEON are
no Iooner announced than they complied with by
the German States. The meafures required by hin,
from the Princes and Regencies the right bank OF
the Rhine fr removing the emg rants, have been lue
