The First Consul, in ordering me to address it to you, charges me to direst you to ohferve, that this is the moment for publishing and putting in execution this decree, inafiwuch as the King of Sar dinia has now, for the second lime, re nounced the crown, and thereby released the Piedmontele from their oath of obe dience.

Thus the wifties of a people, who have for a long time sighed after entire independence, are ful filled. Citizen Strapfcr has made known to theminifterof foreign affairs how much this loyal and generous conduct on the part of the republic, fills the Helvetic na tion and their government with gratitude. May this nation, which hiftory has al ways exhibited as a model of energy, courage and good morals, rally around their governu ent, and make a facrifice of all their paflions to its imereft, its inde pendence, and its glory. [Moniteur. France, Helvetia and the Italian repub lic, have guaranteed the republic of the Valais, as an independent state. [ lb, ADRIANOPLE, June 17. We experience all the evils ot rebelli on and military anarchy. Twenty thou sand Albanians, under the orders of Hake Pacha, were charged to protect Romelia from the bands ot robbers who defolatcd the country, and from the enterprizes of Guirgi Pacha, whom the Sublime Porte has declared a rebel, and deprived of his dignities j but Hake Pacha, instead of keeping the field with his troops, left ♦hem at Adtianople where he neglefled-to pay them, though he had received large sums tor the purpose, and had levied con tributions upon all the towns ot his Pa chalek. This condud roused the spirit of insubordination in the Albanian gar. tifon, and when they learnt that Hake Pacha was replaced in his government by Omer Pacha, they penetrated by force into the palace of thedifgraced command er, and pillaged his treasure and his pro perty. Omer Pacha, in order to preserve A drianople from the irefh afts of violence which the Albanians might commit, re solved to fend them from the city, after having put their pay in a courfeof pay payment; but he hjtd not time to com plete this evacuation.—Scarcely had he been inverted with the government, when he was difgraccd like his prcdeceflbr, and 3000 Albanians who remained at Adria nople, not relying any longer upon the payment which Omer Pacha had promised them, got pollertion of his son, and threat ened the city with pillage j but were forc ed at length to ictire. But the removal of the Albanians can not ensure the fafety of Adrianople. They have announced* that thev will not re- H leafc Omc/s for., till they have received their pay, and the unhappy father has already ineffectually delivered up to them all his treafurcs, without being able to complete the ranforn of his son. The country round Adrianople is now at the racrcy of his garrison ; they re venge themselves upon the feat tered and defencelefi inhabitants for the difappoint •*ment they experienced themselves in their defigns.apon the city. They commu nicate their spirit ot revolt to the other Albanian troops, to whom the defence of Romelia had been entrusted, and in the midst of these seditious movements, the party of tht^rebel Guirgi Pacha increases daily. I|Hr| This chief is only seven leagues from j Adrianople; it isfaid that he has already 8000 Albanians wish him, who, under pretence of arrears of pay being due to them, have formed the plan of attacking this city; if we do not ranforn it by a contribution of 8000 purses. The bands of robbers assemble again—Adrianople is patting itfelf in a (late of defence; and the inhabitants are resolved upon a vigo rous defence. But if the country be ra vaged, if the communications be cut off, if the Portt cannot adopt efficacious mea sures for our protection, nor rely upon the fidelity and difeipline of the troops to whom our defence is entrufled, it is diffi cult for us to look to the future, without the deepest affliction. [Monsieur, We learn from the frontieis of Turkey, that Adrianople is in the power of the rebel's of Romelia, and that 20,000 Ja niffitrics have been assembled in haste, at Constantinople, to oppose their further progress. It is added, that these troops committed at Constantinople, the greatest cxceflcs, and that every measure was in consequence adopted to accelerate their de parture, Citoyen Francais, July 24. LONDON, July 19. A letter from Cadiz of the 30th of June, states, that their disputes with the Regency of Algiers are amicably adjuft cd—a treaty of peace was signed on the 191 b inst. between the two governments, and hopes are entertained that a ftmilar 1 reaty will shortly be concluded with the Regency of Tunis. The preservation of the commercial and s political liberties of Hamburg, which has been fully confirmed by Syndic Doorman, who has returned thither from Paris, has occasioned the greatest joy in that city, Buonaparte, in his firft interview with the Syndic, is stated to have behaved wdih uncommon haughtiness, terming Ham burgh a Nest of Rapine, and the mem bers of its government, pitiful and pusil lanimous freebooters. Jjb 2 s• Private Correspondence. Paris , July 21, “ The politicians here, as well as at London, are full of the scheme of divid ing the Turkish Empire, supposed to be on the eve of execution. Some time ago you were informed in a letter from Paris, chat French troops were about to embark for the Morea. lam assured from vari ous quarters that 11,000 men have actu ally filled from the ports of Italy on this destination. A very (hort time since 5000 failed from Leghorn, and it was not concealed there that they were going to take possession of the Morea. People expect soon to hear of the success of this expedition. It is well known here lhat the French government has left no intrigue unemployed to gain over the court of Pe tcrlburg to the plan, and the other great courts of Europe rauftof course secure ad vantages in this partition. England a lone will derive none; and while her ri val obtains every species of aggrandize ment, (he will be obliged to acquicfce. Indeed the French government is at little pains to conceal the (lender esteem in which the present administration of England is held. The “ system of firmnefs and conciliation,” of which ministers talked so much, is treated with ridicule. The people of England are not aware how much the nation lofcs in the eyes of fo reigners, how much the legitimate influ. ence of our country is impaired by the charaCler of imbecility universally aferib ed to the miniftcr. lam thoroughly con vinced that Buonaparte, if he had set his mind on any scheme of ambition, howe cver desperate or unprincipled, would be as little retarded in his design by the re manftrances of England as by those of the Duke of Wirtemberg, or the Syndics of the city of Hamburg. I could give strong inltances of the little refpeCl with which the French government treats the refpedable Mr. A ldington. “ It is reported, however, that these movements of the French in the Levant have madefomc impression on the Englith government, and I am informed on good authority, that ohiets haveljeen sent out v not to evacuate Malta. i( It is generally believed here that the firm and names of government will un dergo a speedy change. The articte in the Bulletin de Pans, a paper which is conducted it is said by Regnaud de Sr. Jean d‘Angely, a counfcller of state, feeins to have been intended to prepare men's minds for if. This or any change what ever which Buonaparte may delire, will be effected without difficulty. Buona parte is supposed to have taken Charle magne for his model, and he is desirous to combine his personal glory with the resto ration of the empire of that Prince, a plan that is so calculated to dazzle the peo ple of France, and to flatter their vanity. Ail this is very well for Buonaparte, who with freeks and caprices that seem to be tray a little mind, pOlfdfes a capacity of the most unbounded compass, a true spirit , of command, and an unparalelled vigour and perseverance in the pursuit ot his ob jeds; but who will hold together the mighty empire of this modern Alexander ? What is to be the end of ail this ? May . every Frenchman a(k with disquietude. Is it pnflible that an authority so person al to the individual, a government found ed on no solid basis, which has struck no root, or acquired no can expire without a convulsion, or be transferred without a ftfuggle ? It is well for the French that they are not much troubled about the future* , “ in the meaa time the Parisians a mofe therafelves as they have done for ages, in making calcrabourgs and epi grams at the expencc of their rulers.

Two imperial veflels have been found on the coast of Sicily, one near Marseilles, and fevcral near Leghorn and Genoa, without any person on board. Private letters from Hamburgh, state, that a French army of 40,000 men is ordered to the left bank of the Rhine, and will penetrate into Germany, ftiould any party trespass the limits of such countries as have been marked out for indemnities. The Duke of Modena has at length ac cepted the Brifgaw in compcnfation for losses in Italy. Mr, Archibald Hamilton Rowan, who escaped from custody in Ireland, resides with his family at Altona, and is visited by all the persons of consideration in the neighborhood. Sir George Rumbold, our Charge d’Affairs at Hamburgh, is mentioned as being amongst the number. Some recent regulations have been a dopted at Gibraltar, which impose on the inhabitants, who are natives of various countries, fafhions of dress; compel those who wear whiikers to cut them off, with a variety of similar ordinances. Louis XVill. is dangerously indis posed at Warsaw. Attgufi 6. Letters from Hague, of the 3d instant, state, on that day the Legislative Body held an extraordinary fitting, and receiv ed two melfages from the government. The firft of these proposed a general am nesty for all political offences comprizing all persons who have served against the icpublic, with the exception only of the commandants of fortrefles and of (hips, surrendered in a cowardly and treacherous manner. The second relates to the means ol indemnifying the creditors of the Old East India Company. Both were referred to a special committee. The Batavian government have sent a note to the firft consul, requesting that the French troops may be ordered to evacuate Holland, as well as Switzerland; a re quest which those seems very little doubt of being readily complied with, August 7.

R| c f, state, that some of the Moorilh cruisers were at sea ; and we have a letter before us, dated the 31st July, which fay s The Moors have declared war, and hav* taken three of our vessels." But as there are many persons at Llfbon, who are in. terefted in propagating accounts of the danger to be apprehended from the Barba ry powers, in order to deter Americans from the prosecution of their voyages to Cadiz, «S:c. it is probable the reports may have originated with them. The fame accounts also state, that a Swediih frigate had had an engagement with four Tripo. line corsairs, in the Mediterranean; and this affair Capt. Rich supposes gave rife to the report lately circulated refpeiling the Boston frigate! If so, where can the Boston be—No accounts have been receiv ed of or from her for nearly four months f The United States will ftiortly have fix frigates, and a sloop of war, to pro tect our commerce in the Mediterranean.
