An article from Naples, of the 10Th
of October, states, that the comman-

said to be, that the English troops
arc to be prisoners of war until they
shall have been regularly exchanged !;

The contents of the propositions
from Erfurt, and the answer of our
government, have been from the be.
ginning subjects of anxious curiosity
and speculation. Among the various
opinions hazarded upon them, the fol-
lowing account of their substance is
considered the most worthy of notice |:
The offer, it is said, was to the fol.
lowing effect; that we "should ac-
knowledge JOSEPH as King of Spain,
and that Bonaparte was then ready TO
treat with us upon any terms we might
PROPOSE" To which our answer is said
| to have been that "he should restore
Ferdinand, and we had then no OBJ
lection to negotiate on the uti posi-.
etis." November 10.
A report was circulated this morning
with considerable confidence, that the En-
peror of Austria had declared war against
France, and that Bonaparte. upon receiv-
ing the intelligence, had suddenly returne d
Ito Paris. We of course, do not pledge
ourselves for the truth of this statement,
