From tb: A '.bior..
A bullttin was yefleidny handed about in
the miniikrial circles fining that the Auf
trians had taken poffefficn of G<*noa. This
intelligence i«faid to be contained in letters
from L*-£horn, brought to this country by
captain Hardy (Lord Nclfon'scaptain) who
arrived a lew days ago in the Fox cutter irom
Cuxhaven. The report cannot be reconcil
ed with tho accounts ill the last 'journals re
ceived from the continent, belt however er
roneous it may be, the freezing of the Elbe

he arrival of the French papers does not in
he mean time, put us in the pofieflion of
he events which have lately occurred in the
LigurUn territory, without waiting for the
Hamburgh maifs.
Captain Hardy left Palermo the 14th of
November. The date of his leaving Lcg

Several of our newspapers hive reported,
that La i'ayette has received orders to quit
Paris. This is certainly untrue, as he has
not been ticre since his return to France.
He resides on his estate at some diUance
from the ccpital. Madame La Fayette has
feeli Buonaparte ; but the consul declined
any positive interference, or even avoweu
knowledge of her hulbmd's retnrn. Sieyes
observed a iimilar conduit, when the ftine
lady waited upon him. Both Sieyes and
Buonaparte live in great seclusion, and are
fcldom to be le~n.
The late decree of the French consulate,
withdrawing all further supplies for the
maintenance of their prisoners, was extreme
ly sudden and unexpedled; as only a few
days before, M. Perigeaux, the banker, re
mitted to Mr. Hammer/ley 60,0001. on tins
account, with the promise that the payments
(hould be regularly made in future. Capt.
Swinborne alio brought over a bill of ex
chmge fcr 11001. for the fame service.
One of the la 9 ordinances of the En'peror
Paul in regard todrtfs is, that every person
fhull have his wnilkers cut off. No other
than cocked hats and fuU drefied costs are
permitted at Peterlburg ; and when his Im

tutional (lietcli, NiJin-this view it is entitled

ieitk a type of this i;ew constitution, or
any thin.; which it nearly rel'embles. It is.
both with rcfpecl to the names, and forms,
a medley of the republican governments, an
cients and modern, of those of ihe United
States, and of leveral cantons of Switzer
land. It i<, in a word, a Cfcppofition of
Vriftocracy and of Democracy, in which the
fiift predominates. We (hall, beforewe fay
any more 011 the fuhjeft, wait till it has re
ceived »he fanfliou of being laadc public.
We (hall not, to all appearance, have long
to wait, if we may believe the Ami de Loix,
for it assures us that the Legislative body
Would be convottd on the 13th, and that
on the 18th the conftitmion would be sent
to all the departments. This circurnftance
leads us dill mere to believe that the (ketch
which Rcederer has given us of it, is in the
main exa&. All the other paper have be.
(ides argued on the fame bnfis, as oil certain
data.
It i*9 supposed that the approaching pro
mulgation of the public tftablifhment, as
Rcederer calls it, will render the legislative
debates more intcrefting than they hav: late
ly been. They have been dedicated, as usu
al, to founding thebottomlefs abyss of the
republican finances.
Neither the political schemes of Siepes,
nor the imperious decisions of Buonaparte,
nor the concilatory propofuions of general
Hedouvillt and the commissary Lecointe
Puyiavtau, have bad any, pacificatory in
fluence ot> the Royalists of the weft. The
fufpc fion of arms appears to have been
merely nominal and confined to the chiefs ;
it has probably deprived and
the C houans of a very small number of sol
dier;. We fee that they extend and multi
ply in ever) diredion ; and hitherto no
force capable of flopping them has been sent
either into Nrrmandy, Britanny, Marine,
Anjou, or Proitoia. The ilfue of this con

IN compliance with the iriftruttions of the
Committee forwatering the city, and with
my own inclinations, every potlible admit
tance and information has been giver, to
those citigens who have vifitcd the Works
during tht ir progress. The Engines are now
arrived, and are immediately to be put up,
and it is hoped that it will be thought rea
fopablt and just, both to iNe Public, and to
the Contraflor for the Engines, that the
workmen should not be interrupted. As a
very few months will fully gratify the cu
riosity of the citizens, by. (hewing them the
Engines in full operation, i temporary ex
'clufion of aii visitors from the Engine hculog
cannot appear improper.
