p-.vment of ryt. per cent, on the whole of that No cajjSrd at the bank. clenl On Tuesday advl»e was received at Calais from ries Paris, that preliminaries nf peace between the in tl Court of Vienna and, the French Republic had been figred ; and in confluence of which intelli gence, there were great rejoicings in every town and from Paris to Calais. Abi in confirmation of this intelligence, L'Eclair amc of the 19th in ft. has the following paragraph, tin- er ! der the head Paris : to h " The report that preliminaries of peace with mer Aliftria are signed was spread yesterday evening left "throughout all Paris, and is repeated this day.— (hip We are affiled it is at Basle that they have been for executed, and that the Dire&oty accepted them the night before lall. If this news be true, there and will immediately be something official on this froi head." ' Thus, then," a war which is said to have been and undertaken by some of the continental powers for am' • the purpufe of dismembering France, is likely to cefi terminate in fevering from the Empire large and wei fruitful provinces ; for it may ealilv be forefeen, that the French government will adhere to its fyf- to tea of making the Rhine the boundary of France, qui and that it will not be possible to obftruft the exe- mo cution of this plan. ner Whether, deserted as we are I « our allies, and ver every other circumstance considered, the British am cabinet will deem it expedient or fafe to continue the war singly against Fiance, a (hort time mull Ox discover. It is evidently the opinion of the monied Be men in the city, that it will not ; for on the ground of the emperor's pacific disposition, stocks have St. experienced a considerable rife. re P Yesterday arrived Paris Journals to the very late dai date of the 19th inft, inclusive. According to the accounts detailed, very much da; at length, in these papers, it appears, that the ore carfer'of the French is not lets fuccefsful on the th< Rhine than it has been in Italy. The French, wi however, are so much in the aft of exaggeration of the jofles of the enemy, aDd mean suppression of 011 those sustained by themselves, that we know not po what degree of credit to attach to their details ; ga though the success of their operations seems un doubted. They give accounts of a battle at Al- ha , tenkirchen, on the sth, in which they took 3,700 13 prisoners, five pair of colours, nine pieces of can non, and two general officers ; and estimate' the C! loss at 1,500 on both fides. At Berckenfelt and M Oberftein, the Auftrians were compelled to retreat of to Bingen, on the heights of which the French D state that their armies have taken an advantageous nr position At Nieder-Lahnftein, Pfoftendorf and ra Hercheim, other a&ions took place; in which the Auftrians are dated to have loft 500 priffcners, and ti< 23 pieces of cannon. Jourdan, it is added, has 3' passed the Rhine, with his principal forces, in the environs of Audernach, Coblentz, and Neuftadt: in at which latter place he has fixed his head-quarters, m Milan makes a moie formidable resistance than S could be expected. The fortrefs is garrisoned by Gen. de Sales, with 4000 men. He is inverted by fp 12,000 French ; but his reply to the summons is, pi that while hs has a man remaining he wi}l r.ot fur- at render. The French were prepared to give the at aSiult at the latter end of May. Beaulieu, reinforced, has taken a strong position p; with 14,000 men, that covers Lake de Garde and V enables him to fuccotir.Mantua. al Mantua is garrisoned by 10,000 men, amply provided with necessaries. At Trent and Roveredo there is an immense quantity of horses and bag- 1 gage, which are to be £ent into the interior. The ii monied men coine forward very liberally to defray J the expence. tl The Italian Gazettes fay that the Monks of our Lady of Loretto have embaiked with her piecious wardrobe.

Many of the No- b bility at Milan have had their arms eraled from their coaches, &c. and otheis serve in the national guard, h Ten waggons loaded with .money, have already " been sent from that city for Paris. A letter from Madrid, dated April 26, fays,— J " They are making at this time a levy of 60,000 n men throughout all the estates ofhismajefty. There 3 has been formed at Aranjuez a Council of 2 I Ge- 1 ceials, to digelt a new plan and regulation for this g army. We understand, likewise, that in three de- t partmenls of the Marine, Cadiz, Ferrol, and Car- t thagena, they have put in requisition thcfailors of v the neighbouring ports, and that they are equipping (heir belt (hips. Troops are continued to be sent f to Cadiz, who gofrom thence to reinforce the camp ' of St. Roch. All those difpolitions seem to an- v nounce a profpeft of war." c The Spaniards have five millions sterling coming I home in the course of the summer, which is very well known to the Dire&ory at Paris. This may account for the mysterious conduftof the Cabinet 1 of Madrid towards this country. The clergy of Gracow have lately delivered a c Jlatement of their revenues to the Emperor, with j an invitation to appropriate as much as he pkzfes j for the profecutioH of the war. I The merchants in Lombardy have sent a vafl j . quantity of (ilk to Vienna and other places for fafe- t ty j the mansfaiaory of that article being flopped, t the price is daily riling.

Itiscer ed, tainly not to be expecied that a French general will give a faithful account of 'the disasters experienced by his 46 own army ; but still there is fufficient :n the letter of on Jourdan to warrant a conclusion that the defeat which he luftained has been of some magnitude. This indeed is evident from the avowed conjequences of the action ; t " e Jourdan having heen reduced to the necefiity of re ely crossing the Rhine with precepjtition, and Iv eberwho had rapfdly advanced to the banks of the Nahe, having 3— been compelled to fall back to the Sieg. the It (hould not escape our readers notice, that in a for |.,u mer campaign the Sieg and the Lahn were the places f 1 that the Republican army met with a severe check. The retreat of General Wm mfer, and of the Arch ■jU" duke, from Hundfruck, it now appears, were ftilful the manoeuvres to enable them to attack the French, on the right bank of the Rhine, with more advantage. > " -irt.
