We notice these reports because tIcv

The union of the LigurianrepubIic with
France, has produced the following account
of that republic. The addresses in favor Of
the union, were signedby $4,000 citizens
and in assent with the unanimous will Of
the chief magistrate. As the whols popu.
lation is given at 100000 souls, it must in.
: clude all the voters.
The state represents, that unable to de-
iend It's commerce, especially since Pied
mont was united 20 France and not having
its independence acknowledged by the
English at Aynniens, it consented to this
measure. Liguria is arocky shore, whose
patrirnony is industry on the sea. It's pO'
pulstion is of seamen, who have been
much in the service of France. They CAD
. furnish no soldiers. This measure has
been variously received abroad with jea'
lousy, and not at home with fell aproba'
ton. The neighboring ports of France
promise themselves nothing fromihe az
QUESTION. The Genoese have three TINS
chosen free consultation, but the .Bs;O'
ry states, and the policy of European con-
merce, have given no encouragement 70
hope for az independent commerce. ltn
denied in France, that any cause OF J:a'
ousy can arise from the increased teTTF0'
rial power by this acquisition. Tia: France
will loose at her custorl.houses, and D.
obliged to protect an unTarrsn'ed COM
merce. The French say, that the cent?
nent will be indebted to them, Tor SAVING
from entire ruin an ancient city, snd iol
recovering that spirit Of industry WHICH
once gave prosperity to-Genoa.
