LONDON, February 25.
The Dublin mails of the 13th, 19th, and
20th, inllant. have arrived since oar last.
By Ihe last of thele we learn fe
ri#us affrays have taken place in different
parts of the country, in consequence of the
extraordiuary degree of irritatian which the
discussion of the fuhjeft of the union has
caused in the public mind. At Drogheda,
* town about five and twenty miles norih of
the metropolis, a British corps is dated to
have been attacked and heaten by J regiment
of Ir !h militia ; at Clonoiell, in the south,
an affair of a similar nature is said t« have
happened ; and the county of Down is also
understood to be in a very perturbed state.
We trust, howevei, that these accounts will
prove to have materially exaggerated the
facts, and H at the q'leftion will ultimately
be decided by the lair convi&ion of cool
discussion, and not by the outrageous force
of hostile arms. Nothn.g particular had oc
curred in the House of Commons since
Twefday morning. The next debate on
the articles of the union was fixed for Fri
day.

Wt are a (lured that the return of Mr.
Gore to America is entirely on his private
Concerns, and has no relation whatever to
the lubjeA of the erobafTy. We rejoice to
hear it.

On Thursday advices were received at the
admiralty office, from fir Alan Gardner, off

him ; and Lord Bridport himfelf who was
expected to (ail on Thursday, has probably
by this time joined the squadron of obfer

PARIS, 2 Vcntofe, Feb. 21
By letters from Alencon, written by ge

Orne are laying down their arms and firrca
at discretion, as also all the preteijdtd
chiefs of legion, amnng whom are Ruay?,

When the Miniftcr of Justice introduced
to Buonaparte the judges of the different
courts, Stc. Target, the President of the
Tiibunal of CalTatiou, a'.dreffed the Chief'
Consul as follows :— *• Justice is th« natural
ally o! Power : by it Power is rendered fa
tred —by Power, Justice is invincible ;by
their utiioo the public prosperity is secured.
Your glory an J the constitution are the pled
ges. of both thtfe benefits." Buouaparte '
replied—" Jtiftice has too long been usurp- '
ed by (aftions ; it belongs to ill ; it ou~ht
to be distributed to all according to inva- I
•liable principles." j
The fix white horfea which drew Bunna
psrte's carriage on the day of the instal
lation of the consuls were those prcfented to
him by the Emperor of Germany on the
conclusion cf the peace of Campo Formio.
The sword he wore on that occasion was
]ik.ew;fe a ptelent from the Emperor on the
fame occaiion.
February 25
A French officer of artillery wrote to
Buonaparte from Hamburgh in nearly the
following terms:—
" We hare been heretofore comrades and
friends j the difference in our principles in

Head quarters, at Paris, Feb 25
.Citizen Consul,
I halten to communicate to you some in
teresting dif atches, which I have received
from General Gardanne, commander of the
14th military division. It appears from
these dispatches that he has discovered, in
the,neighbourhood of the commune ofCha
nu, feveial hiding placet, whither the chiefs
of the Cliouans were in the habit of retiring
during peace, and when they were pursued
by justice. They had deposited there part
of the arms and equipments furnifhed by the
Englilh. This discovery was made in co»-
ftquence of the confeflion of two Chouans
who were at his mercy, and whom he threat- ]
encd to (hoot. They pointed out to him a
locksmith, nathed, Aubine, of the commune j
of Chaou, whom they kn. w to be perfedtly
acquainted with secret places. In the firft
they found arms, effe&s, and papers in great
quantity. In the second, urhich was the
Asylum of Frotte, they furpriied his secre
tary, and a person named Legrenaile. The
former was tilled as he flood upon his de- j
fe»ce; tii'e fecund promised to mike some '
ufeful iA in cafe hit life was spared.
It was in confluence of his information,
t hat five other places of concealment have
been difcovercd, cuntainiog Fiileul, sailed
Dufour 5 Major General Champy, aide
major, and Augifta, aid du camp of Cau
marqtie. The lattar remained on the field
of battle. They found, besides, in a fub
teirancoiis magazine, about 200 suits sf
Englilh uniform, a gr«at many flippers,
boots, about Jomulkets, a quantity of bay
onets, fabrcs, cartridges and various ctheY
articles. Legrenade laid, that the father
of Frotte, was cxpefted from England iti
fix days. The fecrrtarv Who was killed was
to hike gone to meet liimt, This expediti- S
on was conduced by citizen Lafitte, capt. J
adjoint to adjutant general Bribs, who has
displayed on this occasion zeal and i
ju :gment.
By another difpa'ch, the fame general
informt me, that a person of the name of
Lavidtoire, who commanded a company of
twenty five men, in the vicinity of the fame
commune of Chanu, has been taken in
aims, aid (hot on the spot ; that after the
death of the Ir chief, his men submitted to
the laws of the republic; and thac this ex
pedition hap, completely purified the fwr
rounding coi»m«afi, which were the resort
of the Chouars This last success i» to be
attributed to citizen Bertrand. captain of
the moveable column of Corncille. the con
duit of which Gardaane hai highly praifsd.

DRESDEN, February 11
Tile Ruffian treops are in full march on
their r turn home. A new Courier bat
brought an order for them to bait only ev
ery sixth day, instead of every third.
STRASBURGH, Feb. 12
All the German Gazettes, which lately
propagated drubts refpetfing the retreat of
the Ruffian army, fpiakr.owof their re
trogade unareh at rofs Moraria and Gallicia.
Paul had at firft ordered that his troops
ihonld march at the rate of thirty miles a
day, but the bad state of the roads prevent
ed ils execution, and in a conference held
at Cracow the ift of Feb. it was agreed
that they should not make laager marches
then when en their way to Italy. They
are divided into eight columns of which four
fill P as » by weihrn Gallicia, and croft Cra
covia ; the other fo'ur will pass by Lem
berg. The firft c«luma that was to pass
by Cracrma was expefted there Feb. 7.
Th« reports of Peace ftiii maw tain in
Germany ; but while they hope ie re-ef
tabliTh ptace between France aud Auft'ria,
the German papers are making a war on
another point. They pretend that Paul
has recalled his troops with fa muc& preci
pitation only for the purpoft of colledting
them on the frontiers of Pniffi .n Silesia, and
thm fortius;, by menares, the Prussian gov
ernment to declare itfelf agaii.ft France.
