STATE OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS, 
In Fanuary, 1800. 
EFORE we commence our monthly 
‘ fummary of public events for the 
year 1800, it may not be amifs to prefent 
our readers with a fhort retrofpect of the 
eventful proceedings that occurred on the 
theatre of war, during the preceding one; 
this, by connecting the paft with the pre- 
fent, will enable us in fome meafure to 
guefs relative to the future. 
The treaties of Leoben and Campo For- 
mio, if they did not wholly annihilate, at 
leaft abated for a time, the intenfenels of 
the conteft produced by the French Re- 
volution. ‘The ephemeral peace between 
the Emperor of Germany and the Directo- 
rial government, in the mean time, af- 
forded. an opportunity for Bonaparte to 
tran{port’ his veteran legions to Egypt, 
whence he feemed, on the firft profpect of 
fuccefs, to meditate a formidable attack 
on the Britifh dominions in Afia. But 
the memorable defeat at Aboukir, andthe 
declaration of war on the part of the Ot- 
toman Porte, foon changed the fcene, and 
inftead of being able to aid the views and 
fupport the pretenfions of Tippoo Sal- 
taun, we beheld the conqueror of Alex- 
andria and Cairo, the vigter in fo many 
ikirmifhes and battles, again Turks, A- 
rabs, and Mamelukes, at one time foiled 
before Acre, and at another eagerly 
feizing an opportunity of flying from an 
apparently devoted army, whofe ranks had 
been thinned and difpiited, by fatigue, 
difvkafe, andthe fword. ; 
Notwithfianding the grofs impolicy of 
_@f permitting fuch a large body of troops, 
and fo experienced and fortunate a com 
mander toleave Europe, yet the year 1799 
feemed to be ufhered in under fortunate 
aufpices to France, and the moft unhappy 
prefages on the part of her enemies. So 
formidable had the republican arms be- 
come in Italy, that the King of Sardinia 
was reduced to the cruel neceffity of for- 
mally renouncing the fovereignty of Pieds 
mont in the month of January, and re- 
tiring with his family and adherents to 
the ifland whence he derived his title. 
_ The. King of Naples too, who had once 
more tried his fortune inthe field, and 
been prevailed upon to confide the com- 
mand of his treops to General Mack, after 
experiencing fome fhort gleams of fuceefs, 
and even obtaining pofleffion of Rome, was 
obliged to yield to the fuperior difcipline 
of the enemy, and take refuge in the ifland. 
of Sicily. 
France was thus enabled to give the law 
to Italy; but the face of public affairs, 
was doomed to affume a fudden and un- 
expected change on the Continent. The 
Emperor Paul, being aflured of a fubfidy 
from the King of Great Britain, had ne- 
gociated a treaty of alliance with the Ot- 
toman Porte, and given orders for a body 
of troops to march into the heart of Ger- 
many. No fooner'did the French Direéc- 
tory perceive a new enemy about to take 
the field, than they iffued orders to invade 
the Empire anew. Accordingly, on the 
firft of March, their grand army crofled the 
Rhine, in. the neighbourhood of Kel, un- 
der command of General Jourdan, with 
the avowed intention of forcing the Diet 
of Ratifbon, te declare againft the march
