M. de Talleyrand, nephew of the French minister for foreign affairs, arrived at Auf burg on the 15th inttant, from Vienna, with the news that the Ruffians had evacua ted Cattaro and Ragufa, and that the difficulties which had arifenwiih the hoofe j of Austria ofl this fubjeft, had been ad jutted. I A German paper contains the following very important article, dated Munich, A fpril 13-—“ Wc have received very agreea ble difpatchesfrom Petetftiurg.

In confluence of this the Bavari an army is about to be put on the peace fftabbfhment, and the departure of their Majellics for Milan and Paris will take 1 place immediately. The firnt of the charges made by Mr. ' Paul in the Britilh Haufe of Commons, April 22, against the Marquis of Wcllefly, i late governor-general cf Beugai, amounted to this ; That the Marquis of Welleflcy, irftead of watching over the interests of his employ ers, had acted in a wafieful and extravagant manner, and as an arbitrary and oppretfive matter. That owing to his dedications the Eatt- India Company aie indebted to the Brittti government, above Jix millions tterling. That when he went to India in 1798, he found the debt there amounted to me mi Him one hundred and tbirtj.tnue thousand and twenty.eight pounds tterling ; and that when he was fuperceded by the marquis Cornwallis, the said debt amounted to thirty.me millions tterling. That the Governor-General's salary was ,£55,000 tterling; but that owing to his extravagance, and his love for pomp, par ade, magnificence and Iplener, and the luxu-. ries of the table, the Marquis Wellclley had expended £ 120,000 tterling per annum. Mr. Paul's motion fordacuments to (up port his charges, was not fccondcd in the boufc of commons—conftquently the Mar quis escapes an impeachment, she members believing him to be innocent.

A Fatent Machine far Tin-plate Warding A Machine has lately been invented by Calvin Whiting and Eli Parsons, of Dedhsm, for working Tin Plate into the, various kinds of Ware necefiary for ufc. Although it is ftmple.in its conftrutfion, and not very expensive, and of courfc can require but little repair, jet it facilitates and Caves three fourths of the labour nec<ff?. ry in any other mode ofwotkirg Tin Plate before praftiftd, and at the fame time per. forms the wcik, in general much neater and more thoroughly than it can be dene by hands. It turns, locks, and grooves all the featr-s in a veffcl; it turns the edges and completes * the operation of wiring by doling the * edge round the wire, forming the vtffcl at the fame time. It cuts hot tores of all sizes, and locks the bottoms and (ides together, doling theta perfectly tight, &c. The whole machine is calculated to more with a drum wheel, which may be put in motion hy water, Hearn, horse, man, or any other power ; the rollers that preform the different operations above deferibed, will front ninety to one hundred and twenty revolutions in a minute.

This bridge was csnffrtided upon a plan, invented by Mr. Rithaid Robothai* cf this city ; and co*b:nes mere advantage, perhaps, than any mode at present in uft. It is cheap, fimplc, eaftly conftrufled, ftror.g, and probably more likely to Lc dara, ble than any wooden bridge whatever. It is a Tingle arch of pine hoardr—.72 f ; . t long, 20 feet wide, and 12 inches thick; and was built by contrail for 500 dollar?, including all the materials. The following Jhcws the a&ual quantity of materials and labor, expended in building the bridge; and the subjoined extraft from the books of the company, evince their approbation of the plan and execution of the weik, i; A o feet of pine board.-. 796 lbs. cut nails. 22 days werk, nuumiecaced in three weeks.
