Orders have been given in feveral of the village* about the capital to prepare for the Englifh the quarter* al¬ ready occupied by them. The month of January has been long looked to by the Pa- rifiansas pregnant with feme extraordinary event ; any public occurrence of the le?:(l importance, or in any degree indicative of a revolutionary movement is enquired into with anxiouscurnfity, and the confequence is, that the mod alarming, but in general the mod extravagant rumors are afloat eveiy day. Even the terror of the law againft the pror>a- gation of feditioua rumo's is not fufficieit to redrain the public curiofity and credulity of the French. " This defign is even Incited upon as ha¬ ving difclofcd itfrlf in the violent fpirit chat has broke out in the chamber of Deputies ; the reported return of the j9rit = (h troop*ii attributed to the King's f.ars fromthi* qusr- tr-r.

London, Jan. 18. The rumor in the higlutt. Court circle now is, that a marriage is actually agreed on between the amiable Prineefs Charlotte «nd the Prince de Cobourg. This uni >n has the perfect approbation of the Princefs her- felf, and the Prince Regent has given his coufent. It wil have this important re¬ commendation to the i?riti(h people, that it b' gets no connexion with any of the prin¬ cipal powers on the Continent, by which we might be involved in their difpntes ; and the Englilh people have the proud feeling, that the prefumptive heirefs to the JfritKh throne neither requires nor could obtain any aggreu- dizement, fortune or interell by marriage.
