The city of Antwerp, to recall to the remem-' trance of poilerity the epoch of the opening of the Scheltit, at the flay of the Fitst CoNH; t. within its walls, is to confiruet within its bofom a durat,le monument to confecrate this double re membrance. Artills, the moll diiiingulfhed by their talents, are already occupied in framing dif. fereat plaab, of which, that which appears bell adapted to promote the objeels in view will be • adopt:d. A folid monument is to be formed at Gh-tv, to recall to the recolleelion of its inhabi tants the arrival of the FIRST CONSUL. The Elteloral College of the Department of the Seihe opened its fitting on the 2111 init. under the aufpicea orCitizenLOCUEN 891/11PARTE, and doled it at three o'clock. The following is alai of the Candidates whom it has propofed,:— . For tb Senate—Albert de Luines, and Palterer. . . . . For the Irgifiative Body—Briere Mondetour, Mayor; Ekl• lard.

M. Its proceedings were elated by a fpcech of the Pre fident. Ci::zen D'Haac -war then moved, that the College (hould fend a Deputation to exprefs its duty and attachment to the Firfl Conful. This was unanimoufly agreed to ; and a deputation was named. The thanks of the Meeting were then voted to the Prefident, and the College broke up. Two Senators, four Members for the Legiflative Body, among whom is General MASSIN•J four fubflitotes, to fit in the abfence of thofe Members; and fixteen Members for the Council General of the Departments, were on this occafion defied. Letters from lourdeaux of the 17th mention, that on the two preceding days, very confsderable purchafes of coffee, fugar, and cotton, had been there made. From the eagernefs of the demand for thofe commodities, it was naturally fiipp..fed that it might be pccadoned by fome very particu tar reafon not generally, known. On the t7th, therefore, feveral houfes refufed to make any far. Cher fates till they fhould be better informed of the realm of filch a fudden urgency of demand. We have r aceived the following intelligence from Confiantinople, dated the isth of February— s, The Commandant of the Ottoman troops in Egypt has acquainted the Porte, that General BTUMIT had communicated to him an order from his Court Rating, that as loon as the differences with the Beys were fettled, he fbould evacuate Egypt and repair to Malta with his troops—as in the interval, Lord ELGIN has fettled tilde diffe rences, it is believed, that Egypt is entirely eva coated at this moment. 44 The arrival of the French Ambaffador was the fignal for rejoicing. His binding on the 6th tilt. was announced by a difcharge of artillery.— A vafi crowd was affembled wherever he pallid. The GR6IIO Sarcoma repaired in his hod/ to fee the Ambalfador and his time pads. The Rats- Elllllol4lllld the Captain PACNA complimented him ; and all the French in Confiantinnple wel comed him on his entrance into the Palace of France. In the arrival of the Ambaffatior of the Republic, and in that of the Commiffaries of Com. menial Relations, stained for the feveral ports of the Black Sea and of the Levant, they beheld the pledge of the fulfilment of all their hopes. The &ft interviews between the French Am. baffador and the Ottoman Miniflers, have been fufficient to refiore to France the honourable rank which (he ought to hod in the Levant. The Latin Church is again placed under the proteition of the Republic, of winch it had been deprived during the war. Confidence is revising between the in habitants and the French, and the refidence of the Ambaffador will loon have all the advantages which can be hoped for from Peace." The Count de Maaeovv having acceded in the name of his Government to the Convention con cluded at Paris, between the French Republic and the Emperor of Germany, on the sth Nivofe laft (Dee. 36), and the Emperor of Ruffin having ratitied the acceffion of his Miniller Plenipoten. tiary, the exchange of the rcfpeftive ratifications between France and Ruffia took place at Peterf burgh on the ad Ventofe (Feb. xi ), and in the official notes which accompanied this exchange, the High Chancellor of Ruffia ' Count A re R de Wet ors zorr announced' , the great fatis. faltion which his Majefly the Emperor had expe rienced at the conclusion of this arrangement," and i declared, that 44 fatting the higher value upon the 1 effcel of the cares and folicitude of the i Mediating Powers, as his Majefly fees in this with pleafure the removal of the latt obflacka which Rill onofed the final condemn of the plan of indem mum and the re-ctlablifismcnt of the peace and tranquillity of Germany, his blajefiy made no I doubt that the Imperial fa:titian would immedi. lady put the real to all the other arrangements I agreed - upon, and which murk fi r henceforth the fate and the exigence of the Germanic Body." AU the letters from Germany avec in hating, that the Conelufum would be real on the t It vs sd Germinal (March as or 33). Thus every germ of contention is citinguitheti on the Condom ; pubtical order has been re elablirhed ; every thing k terminated to the fah. faelient of the different powers, :•id the alarming reports wlich liar: been tpreAd ~re entirely with out foundetit , n. bleu of fettle ought to he on their guard at the prefent moment apinfl fuch fabricated inrellience. It is a:iove all proper to retina tie J..)utnalias to appreciate a little better what they draw from foreign papers. How could !h e Editors of the Publicoe, who generally afford no grounl to quatian their difcernment, repeat from an Englifh Journal, that France walled to get poirefiion of the Crimea, in order to have a military pcifition in Turkey? With a (mall portion of geographical knowledge, duce Journalills would not make fuch blunders. We doubt not that other continental Journals will fmn copy a pretended letter from the CHIEF CONSUL to the Kiso of England, written in the gimtlrop itylc, adopted by the Englifh lavers. — To what rniterable arts men refort, for the pur ple of alarming and mifleading the multitude.— (Minteur.) The Dey of Algiers having received 80,000 pia fit es from Spain, and very confiderable prefents from Denmark. fent for Citizen THAINVILLI, and fail to him, That all the world fent him money, and that the CHIEF Comsut alone fent him no thing; that neverthelefs, France in all time pad had been in the habit of making him prefents.— Citizen THAINVILLI (hewed him the !mirage in the letter written to the CHIEF Comsut., and car• Fled by Adjutant General HEILLIII, by which the Dey had difclaimed all pretenfions to prefents.— This anfwer pat the Dey in a furious paflion, and he returned a threatening anfwer. T:lis news being received at Paris, the Minifter of the Marine difpatched the two frigates la Corheille and le Rhin to. Algiers. Citizen Gotta- DON, who had the command of the divifion, was ordered to bring home to France the Commiffary General and his family, to inform the Dey, that if war was once declared, it might not always be in his power to make peace, and to tell him that we know when and in what manner war begins, but that we do not know always when and in what manner it will end. The divilion arrived at Algiers in the month of Ventofe. Immediately the grandees and the people of the regency ran in crowds to the Dey's palace, to reprefent to him what calamities threatened their country. Tin Dey fent for the Commilrary Ge neral, and afketl him for what purpofe the frigates came there? Citiren Tsatsv:LlA announced that the commander had orders to carry him back to France. " You with then (aid the Dey) to be at war with me ?"—" No, (replied Citizen Thain• ville,) but the Cater Consul. is too powerful to be your Tributary." After fume altercation the Dey added—. , Let him pay nothing then—l with to be at peace with him. Write to him that I recede from my demand." The point was thus terminated at once. The Commilfary General was led back amidft the ac clamations of the mob that had gathered round the De) ' a palace, and manifefled the Ilron:;e:i detire to remain at peace with France. He keeps hi, lunation, and the frigates have returned to France. ( 12'0,7i:cur.) MARCH 27. We learn from Turin, that this Spring there will he a Camp in the Department of Marengo.

It is prefumed with fume degree of probability, that fome inci dent has occurred to change the determination of the Court of London in this refped, and which produced the fudden departure of Lord act a, on the arrival of General 13 , t var. In fupport of this opinion, a circumftance is mentioned, which feems clearly to indicate that the Englifh Minifter was not Very well fatisfied with the Porte—We mean the falute or rather fright, which he gave to the inhabitants of Conflantanople in the night, when the frigate on board which he took his paffage failed from the harbour. Lord Etats was well aware that it was contrary to ufage, and contrary even to the will of the Porte, expreffed by the Itsis Er- MIDI.
