The Hamburgh Paper of the 25th ult. con-
tains, under the head of intelligence from Pa
Tis the l7th of June, circular from the Mi
aifttr of Marine to the Commandan at the diff
ferrnt French ports, AUTHORIZING them to +" take
..hs s:.h::Sa EFF all Rnfian vefTeIs detained in
confequence of the hoftties between the two
countries, and to allow fuch veffels to depart"
This order is dated the 9th of June, the day af-
ter the termination of the dfpute refpeeting Ca
tarro, and the milton of Nj. D'OubriI, were
announced in the Moniteur. Theft circum-
hances gave it the appearance OF authenticity,
and yet we have not been able to trace the de-
cree upon which the order is founded, in the
French papers, which we have r ceived TO the
72d ult. We lhonld have expected, that all
pofible publicity would have been given TO
meafure, indicating the probable termination
of the differences between the two countries,
and that fnch an opportunity would not have
been neglected by the literary retainers Of the
French government. Politely, there was
nothing for the order 10 ACT upon, for, we be-
iieve, there was not firgle Rufiian veiiel de-
tainded in any of TIVE ports of France, 1t might
not have been deemed adviiable to give TOO
much eclat to A meafure which, at the mott,
can only be coufdered as an empty compliment.
Letters from St. PeteribIrgh, received by the
Taft Hamburger Mail, mention, that great chang
es were expected to take place in the Depart
ment for conducting Foreign Affairs. 1t was
alto rumoured. that fome alteration was intend
