BOTZEN, Ofiober 22. The troops who are in Mantua with field-marlhal Wurmfur, amount to JJ,OOO men. The want of provifitins in that fortrefs becomes more alarming to the fnldiers, among whom contagious fevers have unfortunately made (hocking havock. The furroundiag diftnAs are totally exhauftcd. The French are not provided with a fufficicnt heavy ordnance. General Alvinzi ilrains every nerve to colleA a force fufficient to relieve Mantua. HAGUE, Oft. 2;. At present the basis of the conftitutien of eur republic has been unanimously agreed upon by the committee of constitution (except only one diflcnt of citizen Kafteele of Haarlem.) The unity of the Seven Provinces in regard of their exterior po litical concerns is therein admitted, but not unity refprfting finances and the confel'dation of debts, since some Provinces as Holland and Zealand are heavily in debt, and other provinces not. The le gislative body is divided inta two councils, the one of which cenfifts of 30 and the other of 60 mem bers. The dirediory or council of state or execu tive will consist of 7 members (like in the formsr government) representing the 7 provinces. This plan of our new constitution will be read in the Convention on the Ift November, and the members will be allowed 14 days for its considera tion. Then they will have to accept or to rcjeft it in a mass. If rejefled ten new members will be added to the 21 who have hitherto fat on this com miflian. These will have to make another report within 4 weeks, and the discussion will then recom mence and last perhaps 3or 4 months. The Snal farftion of the people in their primary aflemblire is then to ensue. Very animated debates are expefled between the parties of Fcderalilts and the Unitaries, as now called. HAGUE, OSober 29. The day before yesterday a letter was read in the convention, from Batavia, dating that the English had taken all our fettletnents in the Eaft-Indics, except Batavia and two fettlenaents in Java. PARIS, October 16. Suicides happen now daily here, in particular amonglt thofc who depend on their rents of the poblic funds, and who are reduced to a miserable fltuatian. The dbefore yesterday a mother with a beautiful dauglttei of 18 years, precipitated themselves ant of the 4th (lory of their dwellings. The mother was fond dead on the spot, and the daughter furvVed her only a few hours. Meafurej are however taken at the treasury, to begin with the paymtnt of a fourth part of these rents. [ Citizen Quatrcmere Dmfional, Lieutenant Co lonel i» the service of the Batavian republic, has invented a machine by means of which blind per sons can spin hemp. The'invention is so far im proved upon, that our soldiers also who loft their arms and legs in the army, may do the fame work. O&obcr 18. The dire&ory has sent the following meflsge to the cuuMil ef fire hundred, ob account of the fuc cefsfn! retreat of General Moreau from Suabia Ciriiens Legiflarors, The directory hastens to communicate to yoi) the TOiKtary operations on the easterly frontiers. The result is one of the most decisive in the course of this campaign, and thefuccefi alore could fe curethe numerous victories of our armies on the Rhine, and with precifiou decide, which party would "finally reap the fruits and advantages of fa many great efforts. The army of the Rhine and Mofell*., which by the retreat of general Jourdan's, found her left wing exposed, when before the gates of Munich, and afterwards fiirroanded from all parts, has returned in the order to the bor ders of the Rhine. The fame army has not only been fuffered to be eftablilhecf but also aiinnyed the enemy by every occasion, and fnuglit their way through every difficulty, and finalfy penetrated in two columm as far as Huningen and Frybourg, af ter a glorious victory (at Schaffenried) whereby they made 5000 piifouers and took 20 cannon— having thus made a campaign at the expence of the \ enemy ; fepatated most all princes of the empire from the coalition, and favored by a vigorous di version the ißvafion of Italy. The fame army re mains matter of the Brifgau, of all the bridges up on the Rhine, of all the roads and pipes whiih con duct to the enemy'B territories. Posterity will re cord this remarkable retreat amongst the most fa mous actions that have been ever executed. It does the greatest honour to the army of the Rhine and Mvfelle, and to their modest generals. The enemy is after hit hazardcus motions, in such a confufion, that it is permitted to us to expect yet frelh and very favourable advantages. (Signed) LA REVEILLE RE LEPAUX, Prefi. OSober 20. General Jourdaa is expe&ed to arrive this day tt Bcuxellei from Liege. LONDON, Nov. t. ADMIRAL MANN's FLEET. Extraft-of a letter from on boaid his majesty's (hip Windsor, of 98 guns, to his father in Leith, dated Gibraltar Bay, O&ober 9. " I received your letter upon our arrival at this place a few days ago, after a very providential and narrow escape from Spanish captivity. We have been up the Mediterranean since 1 wrote you last, and failed about a month ago from Coriica with our squadron, confilliag of seven fail of the line. We, met the Spanilh fleet ten leagues to the eastward of Cape dc-Gatt. 1 heir foice confided of twenty three of thelargeft (hips perhaps in Europe. That day they captured atf Engli(h lugger, and made all poflible fail after us with our small squadron run. ning to the westward, preparing to give them a warm reception if they came up rf?th us. They chaced us 250 miles, during which time we were 41 hours at quarters. Had they come up great flanghtermtift have ensued. Admiral Mann's bra very is well known, and I heard him fay, that they fhoiild purchase the fiiipe very dear. We loft two of the trartfports which we had under convoy, and had it not been for the superior failing of our (hips, they mull have taken or funk us all. When we got into this bay, their van (hips were but three or four miles distant, and the body of their fleet not far off." The Britifli naval force in -the Mediterranean co.ififts of 28 fail of the line, eight of which are three deckers, twenty-five frigates and eleven Hoops. The Tunisian ambassador leaves this conntry im mediately, without having succeeded in th« object •f his million. 1 hat was to recover a compensa tion for a vessel captured by some of onr (hips of war. containing presents of the French to the bey. Our government offered his excellency a frigate tp convey him home, which he declined, and he has hired a neutral vessel for that purpose. A neutral vessel, sent into Harwich, by one of admiral Duncan's cruiiers, left AmUerdam on Sa turday last, has brought advice that the French ar my of the Sambre and Meufe had advanced to wards the Lahn, and were prepaiing to attack the Aultrians, stationed is the vicinity of Neuwied and Ehrenbreitftein. Their polts extended along the Mumerbach, and to Dredorff in the Wederwalt. Many (kirmiflies had taken place in the Hundfruck, terminating generally to the advantage of the Au ltrians, and who in the Palatinate had extended tl.emfelves within a (hort diftanee of Keyferflau tern. The advance of a strong column of the re publicans, comprising thegarrifon of Landau, and l'everal battalions of national guards, had obliged general Hotze to retire into the neighborhood" of Spires. The archduke Charles had removed his head-quarters to Baden, and withdrawn his forces from the neighborhood of Kehl, with which Mo re, a, whose front extended te Offcnbuurg, had ef fe&cda communication. November 10. Yesterday his majesty (igned an order in council granting letters of marque and reprifais agaisil ali (hips aud veffcls belonging to the fubjetfs of the king of Spain. We understand there will be no cotfnter-declaration on the part of our court, to the manifefto of the eourt of Madiid, nor indeed does it require any j the reafpns assigned in it are too frivolous to need a reply. It is a very curious circtimftance, that most of the troops taken on boaid the Duch fleet at the Cape arc deserters from the Audriaa army duiing the campaign of 1794. The following is the amount ol the National ex pence during the present year, as hid before the Houie of Commons.

A letter from th> crnmifariej of the government ■with the army as Italy to the DireSory, dated head quarters, at Modena, l6th Vendemaire tilth of Q3oher). K ' J Citizen Dirictors, We have given you an account, some days ago, of the arrival' of one part of the patriots of the ifltnd of Corika, who were of those delhned to the expedition ; and likewise of the movements which the republicans of the inner tenitory have made, and finally of the departure of general Gentili, with the rett of the emigrants of Corsica, which had united themselves at Livorne. To-day we make hade to give you an account of the happy intelligence, that the Englilh finding it impoflible for them to stay any longer upon the island, were forced to evacuate it. This intelli gence, besides tlie treaty wittf Spain, the captiite of Livorne, the embargo of the Genoese sea ports againlt the Englilh, and the energy of the republi cans who went to Corsica, willseftore the commerce of Matfeillcs and the southern parts of France to its original splendor and prosperity. May those inhabitants of Corsica who had the misfortune of being misguided by the Engli(h, serve those for an example who may yet be tempted to tely up6n those ifianders. SALICETTI & GARRA^U. General Gentili wrote, likewise, »n tlie 15th ultimo, to the commiflaries of the government, Saliaetti and Garrau, and gave them intelligence that the Englilh had avacuated Corsica, to which the landing ef a great partyof Corficansconlributed very much. The daily officii! Jbetl of the Journal des Defenfeurt de la Patrie contains {he following : ARMY OF ITALY. The calutjuiies which are so of t i fyread abroad and were so often refuted by the vidtoiies of ge neral Buonaparte are only toys of the agitators and others who mean to deceive the crednhus. The enemies of the Republic, the Royalii'S and the adherents of anarchy, rally their forces ant] u. nite their endeavors to make those believe, what may disturb thegood citizens ami the trire friends of government. The new reports of a sally of Wurmfer with part of his army in Mantua and his pretended advantages over the Yepublicans are of this kind. Italy fees Buonaparte her conqueror, ever glorious, and (he will fee Wurmfer and his army prisoners of war. The expedition to Corsica (hews fufficiently the superiority of the force he commands. General Bournonville has f*nt an Jccount from the head quarters at dated the 23d in stant, of the' crofting of the Rhine, which the Auftrians attempted on the 22 irritant at night, at Neuwied, &c. (This account agrees in the whole with that of the French already pnhlilhed ) Among other artisies it is that all of the enemy who eroded the Rhine at Neudorff wrt,e eitlser killed, taken prisoners or drowned. On the left wing of the Rhine were left in our liaod3 1,000 prisoners, 400 whereof were wounded. Those that were drowned are edimated to be 3 or 400, and the lofj r<r the.enemy on the'right wing must have been extraordinary great, as they received from ths bridge battery a mod aftonidiing site. The troops under general Kleber and Grenier have diliinguilh ed themselves mod wonderfully. From Cadiz we learn that on the Bth instant, the Spanish admiral Langara has taken some En glidi men of war in the Mediterranean sea, and that if he had had orders of hr.Qility 24 hours sooner, he could have taken the" English division of admiia! Maim, confuting of five (hips of ajie line, with a convoy of 4000 men. In Eltremadura will be raised a Spanish amp confiding of 60,000 men. The Englidi (hips which admiral Lan'grra has taken are one of 50 cannon anu 2 eorv; es. The English men of war whicih hto k,v up ihe port as Carthageua are returned to Gibraltar. \ ederday the Council of Five Hundred laid an embargo. No (hips wherein arv found EngJilh goodi are to he fuffered to enter any of the French-ports. On the 25th indant the Council of rectived a riieffage from the Directory, whereupon it formed itfelf into a secret commiitee. It is alTerted that this mrflage relates to a peace with Portugal. I lie celTation of arms with Modena was didurb ed by dilguifed ac idents. In one of the Mo denefe villages Seandiano, the inhabitants cut down the tree of liberrv, armed t Hcmfelves, insulted and knied lume republican minded persons, who would go and visit a French commidary in Seandiano. 1 he noted Abbe Spsllanzani it is (aid played a mas ter part in this uproar. In fine general Buonaparte fays in a manifefto, that he published, that the Duke's governmeut has caused the French to be liated by the Modena people, Instead of paying the contributions, the Duke has given hit money to the enemy, and all those are now declared as enemies to the French, who (hall make an attack upon the property and the rights of the inhabitants of Modena and Reg gio. On the 7th instant, our troops took possession of Modena, difarroed the Duke's troops, and took all the treasures into poffefiion, and replanted the tree of liberty. she inhabitants of Reggio who took an empe perial detachment from the garrifoa of Mantua pri» foners, General Buonaparte has rewarded. ■rf letter from Conflantinople, September 2y'b. On the 12th instant the great admiral, or cap tain Pacha, made his entrance in the channel. In the middle of his fleet weren be seen the two Mal tese cor fair fliips, which he had conquered. Their flags were reversed, and their men laid in irons. As soon as the captain Pacha came ashore, he was received with the loudell acclamations of joy by the people. He went to the Seraglio, where he obtained audience of the grand fignior, and was re» ceived in a flattering manner. The enemies of the captain Pacha, did net like this, because they are afraid that he will be made prime minider or grand vizier. The fultari desired him to give an account of the adion of both the Maltcfe corsairs, and dif miifed him moll graciously. Among the prisoners of the M?Jtefe are one commander and two knights of the order of Malta. The Spanish embaffador who is here hss fought to •btain their liberty ; but in vain, they were brought with the reft as the prisoners to the prison of the Bath. \ The change of the political system of Sweden as had the happy effV6t to produce tranquility i« the state. - Warlike prtparauoas arr thought of u» more.
