Fout new fovereigns are talked of in
Germany, namely, the Eleclors of Baden,
Heflf, HetTeDarmftadt, and the Duke of.
Cleves (Prince Murat) Napoleon could
not adopt a more effectual mode of annihi

than by thus frittering down, and parcel

that once venerable empire. :

We stated yesterday and on Ihe best au-
thofity thai'M. d'Oubril had, jn signing thu
preliminary treaty with France gone beyond
his instructions. We can now add, that the
terms are so ignominious and disadvantage
ous to Russia, that it is thought by some di.
Slornatists the emperor Alexander will pro
ably hesitate to ratify them. ;
In the mean time, Napoleon acta as if even
the definitive treaty was sintied.On the very
day that d'Oubril signed the preliminary trea
ty, it was intimated to the Austrian ambas
sador, that his master must immediately ab
dicate the crown he has so long worn as head
of the German empire, and confine himself
in future to such matters as concern only his
own house.
Lateil from France.
The editors of the lew-York Gazette have
received by theach'r AUantick. from Nntz,
Paris papers to the 29ih of July. - Their con
tents are interesting. See the translations
below'. 7
It appears certain, however, that a separaie
peace was signed on the 20th July between
Russia and France the terms are not pub
lished. The fortfess of Gaeta surrendered on the
1 8th of July, after sustaining a fire t-f 1 1 dajs
with open trenches, dining which time 800,
000 pouiidsof powder was consumed by the
besiegers. Thus, after am.mly struggle, has
this fortress fallen into the hand of the tyrant
of the world.
We have seen a letter from Nantz, f the.
1st of August, which Mates a report of the
preliminaries of peace between Great-Britain
and France beings signed at Paris on the 25th
of July. The writer says this wants con fir
mat ion. ..
The same letter says, M Last evening's
mail brought news from Paris, authorising
Jhe free exportation of grain to any port or
ports by neutrals. This khowi a pacific dis
position towards England.

V 56th. The movement of tbe troops from
tlieinterior, towards Germany, has been sus-.
pended, in consequence of the peace with
Russia. In a few iiburs after its !gnature
M. D'Oubril set. off for St, -Petersburg in
haste, having first taken a hotel for the new
Russian Ambassador. ' It is thought the ra
tifications will be exchanged in a moath. " ' '

lately arrived from England, will soon ap

In our Gibraltar Chronicle of July 12, we
observe a paragraph stating that the Spanish
! government tftI Uud rdera to put 18 re
gimtnt of injaatry, two of artillery, and 12
of militia, onTthe war footing. The conjec
tures concerning their uestinatioh are various ,
the following are mentioned 1st. An ap
proaching rupture with France 2d. the re
gulars to be sent on a foreign expedition and ;
the militia to do duty in the interior -thi o
pinion is corroborated by the fact, of orders
being sent to the commander of kthe Cadiz '
squadron, consisting of eight sail of the linej
to liold himself in readiness to sail at a mo
ment's warning; and by the well known .want
in which Spanish America stands of the as
sistance of the mother country, (owing to
Miranda's expedition,) it is supposed to be
intended for that place. The 3d opinion is,' '
that they are intended to garrison the Portu
guese ports,' which are to exclude English
ships, and thereby save French troops the
trouble of overrunning the whole country. .
- Of the disagreement between the members
of Administration in England, tbe Courier
of the 2 1st observes" dissention and di
vision have ciept in among them their
most bitter enemies are to be found in their
own party ; and the most decisive opposition
to the Ministers proceeds from the Minis
terialists themselves ! The t'oxitcs disagree
among themselves, and disapprove of the
measures of the Fo::ites and GrenVilles
the Gvcnvilles are not perfectly cordial, for
Lord Tempje disapproves cf the measures of
Mr. Windlum. The puny party f the Ad
dinfttoni arr at variance with each other, for
we hare seen Mr. Van sit tart in opposition to
Mr. II. Addmgton. The Vicc-Prebldent of
the Board of Trade sets himself up in op
position to the measures of the Secretary of
the war department. The Treasurer r
the nary,, recommends what the Ministers
rcprolwte ; the Treasurer of the Navy con
demns the conduct of the Secretary of State,
and the Secretary of the Treasury seconds a
motioi; which meets with the decided opposi
tion of the first Lord of the Treasury and of
the wlole cabinet. ' The Vice-President of
tbe Ktard of Trade, who had assumed an
authoritative tone to the Secretary at war is
him clf severely rcbuded by a distinguished
mersber of that party which was supposed
to h ve carrirtl its decisis c support to the
Mtn.try Lord Temple complains cf the
conduct of the opposition w'tli respect to tht
volunteers, &ad Mr. Panks takes up the de
fence of the opposition, and pointedly con-
deptss the manner and June with which hit
Lordship had " upon the present, and indeed
almost, upon ' m..ioii, niictn.nJs
thoee who difief with him in opinion." ,
M Are not these pretty strong symvtoms
of distention and disunion 1 And yet, though
they are unable to be unanimous themselves,
Ministers expect that the pcplc will be unan
imous in approving all their measures and in
believing that they are ministers of the greaU
est talent, virtue, consequence) ami capacity
that ever existed 1 1" 1

The present eruption of Vesuvius exceeds,
any thirrg of tbe kind within the memory o,
man. "The summit of the mountain is torn. '
to pieces, and the rim of the crater is quite s L
altered, in consequence of the number of fis
sures, to such a degree, that it is thought
. that, in the course of a few tlnys. i whole side
of the mountain will Tall in. A 'ut one hun
dred dwelling houses and est es have been
ruined, with large tracts of V: ne ird ground,
corn fields, &c. The volcano ill seems to
contain a large portion of matte,-, as the sub
terraneous noises are dreadful. Plashes cf
lightning art; 'emitted, from time-to time,
from clouds of smoke. People aic extreme
ly apprehensive, that the Torre del Greco
Wy share the fate cf the Ilerculaneum, in
the year '79. A fart of the streets of Torre
'del Greco have already been ir. undated by
the lava, which the inhabitants have rentem-d
Villi incredible labour and fatigue. Still the
stream tontintfes to run very near the place,
and the Inhabitants arc deterred T:r,m leivkig
their houses for fear of being injured by the
