In all the ceded countries, acquired or exchanged by the present Treaty, it is agreed, as had already been done by the 4th and 10th Articles of Campo Formio, that those to whom they shall belong, shall take them, subject to the debts secured on the said countries; but considering the difficulties which have arisen in this respect, with regard to the interpretation of the Articles of the said Treaty of Campo Formio, it is expressly understood, that the French Republic will not take upon itself any thing more than the debts resulting from the loans formerly agreed to by the States of the ceded countries, or by the actual administration of such countries.

To one of these hackney writers we should certainly have attributed the letters before us, which first appeared under the signature of Philanglus, had they not been elevated from the Porcupine newspaper to a pamphlet, bearing the respectable name of Sir Frederick Morton Eden, Baronet, a circumstance which now induces us to ascribe to want of knowledge alone, those erroneous statements and conclusions, which we had before imputed to a cause, less humiliating, perhaps, to the author, but far less honourBy John Boles, Esq.- The moral able to the man.

New Works at Paris.

9. There appears in the last received numbers of the Moniteur, under the signature of Peuchet, a series of essays, strongly recommending the establishment of a commercial company to trade with the Baltic, and to be called the Baltic Company, to be situated at Antwerp. The author proves, we think clearly, that the advantages, which France has acquired by the peace, will now enable her to rival England in the part of the world, of which he is speaking. When he has closed his observations, (which discover great knowledge of the commercial interests of the nations of Europe), we shall endeavour to give an analysis of trem, in the mean time, we shall content ourselves with an extract, exhibiting an account of the exports from France to the Baltic, in 1789, the year preceding the revolution.
