reports, that he left the divifon under Admiral

voy. 1twould not be proper to give detailed

Der, and the Rock on the 9Th. On the day he
faleiit was reported that Mr.. Fox was dead,
that the negotiations for Peace were broken off,
and that Lord Lauderdale was on his way
home.
With refpea to Mr.. Fox, our Liverpool pa.
pers (Which are to the 4th September inclufve)
inform us that he was tapped fecond time on
the soth of Auguft, and had Ia quarts of fetid
water taken from him; the report of his death,
therefore, is not probably, without foundation.
The negotiations, we know, from Paris papers,
were progrefiing on the soth of Auguft, and on
the Sd of September no meffenger had arrived
in London from Paris; the rumour of Lord
Undertakes return is, at beft, exceedingly pro-
blematical.
| The fears of invafon, which were lately 70
prevalent at LiSbon that many Britifh mer-
chants were telling off their property, had very
much abated. AT Madrid the opinion of Peace
was 10 prevalent that the difcount upon the
PaLes had fallen from 81 to SO per cent.

The battle that was fought in Caabria was
very obftinate. The rebels thought they could
reilit the brave folders of Marengo and Aufter-
litz. They were puniihed for their rafhnefs,
it'll more for the ignorance their prompters
keep them in. 1t is known here that they loft
5000 men (; not one WAS taken prfoner, and
all thofe that were found with arms, flared
the fate of the rebels. Such as could make
their eicaPe good, retired to the mountains in
the greateft diforder.
II is not faid yet whether there were any,En-
giih troops along with the Calabrians it is
known that the Englifh willingly promife fol-
diers, whom they do not give. We are only
certain that they had landed few hundreds of
6andtti, to increafe the diforder; but cor
don of troops has been extended from Caput to
Salerne, and none fhall efcape from the vigi-
lance OF the officers, appointed to carry into
execution, the orders of the government.

tons proPofed to them, are already fpoken of.
The one given by thefe deputies to the third

ry Chritian, or Chriffian marry a Jewifh
woman or, in other words, does the law for
o'd the Jews from marrying otherwife than
among themfelves % was in the following
words:
The law of Notes expressly forbids to both
iexes of the Jewifh nation, the intermarrage
with unclean people but this law is applica-
bic neither to Frenchmen nor Frenchwomen,
as they are not expressly mentioned by Notes. %
AS for the nuPtial benediction to be given bv
the Rabbins, that ceremony, as the deputies
lay, is not practifed among the Jews, the con-
TENT only of both parties fufFces and is obliga-
