Foreign Advices.

PARIS, Jan. 19,

It is now certain that M. de TALLEYRAND, formerly Bishop of Autun, goes to the Court of St. James's, charged with an important mission, the object of which is, to keep up and fortify the harmony existing between England and France.

Last week in the National Assembly, M. Jourdan made use of the following expression:--The traitors of every rank shall fall by your hand; the generous nation pardoned once, it will pardon no more; O King and Ministers take warning!

NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.

SPAIN. [Jan. 16.

M. Loustein read a letter from the Procurator Syndic of the department of the Basses Pyrennes, importing that Spain was on the eve of an attack; that the part of the frontiers opposite was in a bad posture of defence; that the troops of his line were not complete; that the volunteers had lately gone without dinner for want of pay; and that great doubts were entertained of the fidelity of M. D'ACHILLEAU, the commander. Referred to the Military Committee.

Ordered also, that the Minister at War state the reasons of the troops of the line on the frontiers of Spain not being complete.

JANUARY 17

A letter was read from an Englishman, offering 200 livres in support of the deranged finances of the French nation. The offer was thankfully accepted.

The Minister of War communicated to the Assembly a letter from the King. His Majesty therein proposed to the Legislative Body, to take into consideration a mode of recruiting, which should speedily complete the army.

This dispatch was referred to the examination of the Committee, in which the King proposes an augmentation of 8 Lieutenant-Generals, 12 Marshals-de-camp, 4 Adjutants-General, and 8 Commissaries of War.

M. Brissot, in a long speech endeavored to prove the necessity of going to war. He represented most of the Princes of Europe, as prostrated at the feet of the National Assembly of France; the Emperor, however, appeared to him, to have adopted an attitude less humble.

He therefore proposed that vigorous war should be carried on against the Emperor; that it was part of the Assembly, "Parcere subjectis et debellare superbos."

The speech of M. Brissot was ordered to be printed.

JANUARY 18,

The Assembly voted the sum wanted from the fund of Extraordinaries, to make good the deficiency in the receipt at the Treasury for the month of December, being 20,860,624 livres.

LOUIS STANISLAS XAVIER.

The Committee of legislation presented the decree of forfeiture in the following terms, which was adopted with loud applause:

The National Assembly considering that Louis-Stanislas-Xavier, French prince, the first called to the Regency is not returned to the kingdom on the requisition of the Legislative Body, proclaimed on the 7th of November, 1791; and that the term of two months, fixed by the proclamation, is expired, declares in the terms of the 2d article of the 3d section, of the 2d chapter, of the 3d part of the Constitution, that Louis Stanislas Xavier, French Prince, is held to have abdicated his right to the Regency, and that in consequence he is deprived of it.

"The executive power shall give the necessary orders for the publication of the present legislative act, which it shall cause to be proclaimed, and shall give an account to the National Assembly
within three days, of the presentation made to it, and of the measures which it shall have taken to this effect."

The Minister at War gave an account of the measures taken for the defence of the frontiers towards the Pyrenees, which he assured the Assembly were sufficient. The contracts made for arms and ammunition could not be made public without danger; but he desired to be held responsible for them; and also that copies might be deposited in the archives of the Assembly, to be opened and examined at a proper time. (Loud applause.)

JANUARY 19.

The minister for foreign affairs communicated a second letter from M. St. Croix; dated Coblentz, January 17th, at midnight, containing new assurances of the real and complete dispersion and expulsion of the emigrants from the Electorate of Treves. The conduct and the sentiment of the Elector, says the Ambassador, are no longer equivocal: He has done, and will continue to do his duty towards France.

JANUARY 21.

M. Lamarque said, the public opinion called for war, but there was one measure which ought to precede it—to sequestrate the property of all those openly engaged in the conspiracy against the public. The people in the neighbourhood, he said, had a list of all the emigrants, and threatened to burn their houses on their first movement against France.

M. Bigot said, that the property of the wives and children of the rebels, ought to be put under the special safeguard of the nation.

The Assembly ordered the Committee of Legislation to prepare a decree on the subject, against Tuesday.
