Rolerated Rome, June 10. The ceremony of the pope's coronation was performed here the 4th of this month, with the ufual folemnities. On this occafion there were public rejoicings and illuminations two days. Rome, June 24. Prince Charles Edward Stuart, who occafioned a civil war in England, in the year 1745, has lately made his appearance in this city. On Thursday laft he was prefented, by his brother Cardinal York, to his holiness the pope, who gave him a moft cordial reception. His vist here caufed much speculation. Leghorn, June 19. General Pafcal Paoli, who arrived in this port on the 16th inftant, on board an English merchant ship, came afhore yesterday. He went immediately to the houfe of Sir John Dick, the English conful, who had invited him to lodge there. However, he flaid only about an hour, to take fome refreshment; after which he fet out, accompanied by the conful, in a coach and four for Pifa, followed by another carriage, in which were Lord Pembroke and Barn Groatou. We know not to what country he, -will afterwards repait; perhaps to England, where, we are informed, fome of the principal mobility have offered him an honourable afylum. CORSICA. The advices received from Corfica on the part of the French, do not at all agree with those that come from the natives. According to the former, the Count de Vaux is continually receiving hostages from the inha 399 bitante, who vie with each other in fubmitting to France. He has marched two regi ments, one of infantry, the other cavalry. in order to traverse the mountains and the woods. Thefe letters add, that the French had landed at Porto Vecchio, and that their whole army was in march to poffefs itself of the country beyond the mountains. According to the letters from the Corfcans, a French detachment having marched from Ajaccio, in order to furprize the district of Mezzana, the inhabitan's repulfed them, on which the French fet fire to the bourgs of Carcopino ad Cafela. General Abatucci having received advice of this, is marched toward that fier; and the French are not yet masters of Porto Vecchio. POLAND. Warfaw, June 28. We learn that all the confederacies formed in Little Poland, are now united under one chief, who is the count de Potocki, ftarost of Kaniew. is a very unfortunate circumstance that divers detatchments of the troops of the crown are actually among the confederates, It is much feased that diforder will increate in Great Poland, as the greatest part of the Ruffian troops which were there have departed from thence to join their grand ar my. In the mean time, precautions are taking for the fecurity of this capital. Warfaw, July 5. According to letters from the frontiers of Moldavia, the Turkish army is divided into three corps, the one, which is the most confiderable, is eacamped near Bender; the fecond in the neighbourhood of Jaffy; and the third not far from Chocsim. We hear that tain. GERMANY. Vienna, June 28. Yefterday being the day fixed for the marriage of the archduchefs Amelia with the infant duke of Parma, the court went to the church of the Auguftines of this city by the gallery, which leads from the palace. Near the grand altar a canopy was erected, beneath which were a chair of state, and an oratory fer her majefty. At a fmall diftance from this canopy, and upon the fame ling were placed two other chairs of state for the imperial family, facing the altar; and upon a raised part of the floor, two other chairs of fate, and as many oratories, fer his royal highnefs the archduke Fendinand, who stood proxy for the infant on this occafion. The empress queen attended by the captains of her guards, and great officers, led her auguft daughter to the 400 FOREIGN AFFAIRS. altar, dreffed in a fuit of filver, and having her train borne up by the countess of Wildinftein, as grand-miftrefs. The archducheffes immediately followed her majefty, and the ladies of the court and the city finished the proceffion, which was closed by a detachment of foot guards. After the nuptial ceremony the court returned to the palace in the fame order as they went, Ker majefty all the way leading the new duchefs of Parma. In the evening a fplen did entertainment was given at court, with a grand illumination at the Chancery, which is oppofite to the palace. This illumination confifted of upwards of 200,000 lamps or pots de feu, difpofed according to the orders of architecture; and four choirs of mufick, placed at the four corners of the Court of the palace, made the air refound with their pleafing fimphonies. About ten fome falvoes of cannon from the ramparts and mufquetry were fired, which terminated the rejoicings of the day. Hanover, June 30. His royal highness the duke of Gloucefter arrived here on Tuesday laft, with a fplendid equipage. The princes of Mecklenburg, and feveral other perfons of rank, received him at the palace of Monbrillant. In paffing near Haftenbeck, his highness examined, with great attention, the field of battle where the French and allied armies fought in the year 1757. Yefterday the prince of Brunfwick arrived here, to requeft his highnefs to ftand godfather to the young prince of Brunfwick. The duke will go from Brunswick to Lubeck, where three Danish men of war are to convey him to Copenhagen, at which city great prepara sions are making to entertain him. PRUSSIA. Berlin, July 14. Prince Henry of Pruffia was married, in the chapel of Charlottenbourg, to the Princess Frederica Louifa, of Heffe Darmstadt. The ceremony was performed by Mr. Sack, chaplain to the court. DENMARK. Copenhagen, June 17. His majesty is going to build an hofpital, in the manner of that at Chelfea, near London, for the fupport of fuperannuated foldiers, and alfo to form an establishment for foldiers widows and children. The fmall pox rages here at present in a very fatal manner. July 8th. His royal highnefs the duke of Gloucefter arrived here from Hamburg. FRANCE. Paris, July 10. The duke de Daras fat out yesterday for Brittany, with letters patent from the king, authorifing him to reeftablish the parliament of that province upon the footing that it was before the year 1765. We here likewife that all the exiled members, except Meff. de la Cha lotais, father and fon, are actually recalled, and are going to resume their former offices. A REPLY to our CORRESPONDENTS. MR. Devonshire's letter is fo long, and the object of bis refentment (bowever deferving of the laft) fo unimportant, that we bope be will excuse the juppreffion of it, to give something more entertaining to our readers. The gallant Paoli, and the fall of Corfica, is equally dianonymous letter, lamenting the fate of the finguifbed by good fenfe and humanity; neveribe lefs, as it is only a lamentation, we do not tbisk it very neceffary for the perufal of the public. The Lay Citizen's favour of the 21ft ult. come to band, and fhall be properly regarded, The Enigma by N. S. is not calculated to do credit to our Magazine, or bonour to its author. is If the noble Lord, who dates from the neigh bourhood of Grosvenor-Square, will be early in communicating the paper be mentions, we shall endeavour to oblige bim with a place in our next. The letter never came to band which an old correfpondent fays be figned "A lover of liberty." The poem from Queen's college bas fancy, but wants verfe, and if the author will be at the trouble of making it less exceptionable in this particular, we fall readily indulge bim with a publication. A Marine Officer has much reafon to com-. plain, but instead of printing bis cafe, we would advice bim to prefent it to the Admiraly. Sir John L. is very obliging, and we atcept bis offer with a proper sense of the avility. A Journeyman Carpenter is more proper for a news-paper than a magazine, though we think, if be advised with a fenfible juftice of peace, it would be the likelieft method of redreifing bis complaint. H. S. if be pleafes to favour us with ery thing in favour of the Americans, which is proper for infertion, fhall always find us regu lated by the fritteft principles of impartiality. T. B.'s very fenfible bint fhall be immediately attended to. Leonora is perfeily right in the alternative he choojes; the rifque only of happiness, is preferable to the certain facrifice. We there fore wifh her well out of her avaricious guardian's band; and shall be glad to bear of ber fafe arrival at Edinburgh. A Diftreffed Wife bas our pity, but it is a dangerous fep to feparate from ber bufband. The Buther's verfes fmell too much of the pantry, and bis defcription of a marrow pidding is much too greasy for our readers. A Disenting Clergyman will find the very extract be wishes we would publifh inferted in the prefent number. Afpafia, Damocles, Timon, A furly Citizen, and many other correfpondents, are under confide deration, and foall either be infested, or properly taken notice of, the firft opportunity. |
