is* LOKDON, pffohr »|V , We yeftcrday received Paris journals to Uie yih October. ■ t Tficy communicate farther details of fliic progress of the Swiss patriots. Lu cerne has been taken by them as well as J'riburg ; and at both places they disarm ed a great number of the government troops, up their iuccefs with vigor, they arc about to enter the Pays dc Vaud, where the government has with drawn. The commander of the army of patriots has addressed a proclamation to the Pays de Vaul. Nothing but the immediate arrival of the French troops tan prevent their compleat recovery of I lie whole country. An army of 20,000 men is immediately to be levied, and in the mean time a plan for a federal union among the cantons, which, however, ih&il not extend to any general authority in the internal affairs of the separate can tons, is under confidcrution. It is Hat ed that the patriots have written to the different courts of Europe, with an ac count of what they have done. They had not received any intelligence of the final determination of the French govern ment. The letter written by the firit toilful will inform them what they have to expert. By the French mail of this morning, afre have received letters which llate, that 1 <■' Jii.de/ant Helvetic government lias fled from Lucerne to Geneva, leaving the insurgents in pollelfion of the Pays dc Vaud. The advanced guard of the French having penetrated to this canton, is fa id to have been defeated. This latter ftate jnent, however, it is added, requires con firmation. The fi<dd officers are ordered to join thejjih regiment at Malta, from which it appears that the evacuation of thatfor trefs is not yer to take place. OSlo be r 1 3. A mail from Holland arrived this morn ing. A report is mentioned in the Am flerdam Courant, that the French troops have received orders to pass the Rhine, in case there (hall appear any delay in fet tling the indemnities, T he following circular has been font by Mr. Falcon, consul at Algiers, to the other Britilh consuls in the Mediterrane an, .

FALCON.” \ OSI obey 16, , .A Dutch arrived this morning, and our private ratters contain intelligence of confidcrable Our readers have already been in termed of a conspira cy that was formed to TSfed a change in the present form of government of the Bjtavian republic. 'i't> Holland as to Switzerland, to Germany, to Italy, to every part of the continent in fgd, it is the chief consul who fends his con Wands, and calls them mediation. His ambaf f.idor, Sc.nonvill'e, waited on the presi dent of the B.Flavian diredory on Satur day lall, andnnforincd liim, “That the fird consul had learned with equal afto nilhmcnt and indignation, that persons, fond of revolutions, vvilhed again to di ffurb the tranquility of the republic—as the ally ot the republic, he invited the go vernment to adopt the r.eceflary mcafures, to maintain the present order of dungs eftabliibed by the confutation.’* This declaration seems, for the prefer:, to hive damped the hopes of the anti-direc torial party. It (hould seem as if the consul had been apprehensive that a change in the Dutch government would have been detrimental to the interests and influence of France. Scmonville's departure for the Hague was accelerated for the pur pose of making the above declaration to the diredoty. We rejoice that our ministers have de termined to do that which the honor, and interests of the country equally and impe rioully demanded. At the cabinet coun cil on Saturday, it was refolvcd, we uu derftand, to prelent a remonftrancc to the French government, against the inter ference of France in the affairs of Swit k fcerland, and to call upon other courts to r.d in concert with us. The honor of the country required us to do this, becaufc it would have been (hameful indeed to have' Wnvnned tame and unconcerned fpeda ‘tprs, becaufc it would have been mean w and base to have prttented to the i*orli and to poftcrify the dtfgufting fpcdlacle of theuuiverfal fubmiffion' of Europe to the will of the confute Donee totum , impleat orient , has been, the motto of the former so vercigns of France, but then (as now, we trull) one power was found to check them in their career, and to ap. ply reins and curbs to their inordinate ambition. From every moral and poli tical motive, from every principle of free dom ami of virtue, Switzerland merits our interference—a gallant and virtuous people, free and happy, until they were cnllaved by the tyranny of French liber ty.

This privilege will commence to operate from and after the firll day of December next —-and will disarrange the plans of a great number of American as well as En^liih, * • merchants, who had laid out their ac counts to make fortunes here in that trade. The number of negroes required for this illand, is beyond any calculation }et made, as the number already imported ftnee peace, exceeds, as I am informed, upwards of 12,000. “ The consulate have drawn up a strong and spirited remonftranee, agaiml this privilege, and font it forward to the kirg -—and are supported by planters ; and all parties.
