elofed without remarking, that the Cifalpine, of rather Tranfelpine or

* This Volume was written in the year l8oo, and retouched in l8 o t. A t prêtent, May 1804,
it maybe proper to add, that the author has received from Paru a map, recommended as accurate;
b y a learned profeffor at Milan, in which the boundaries of the Italian Republic are diftinftly
marked. They extend to the utmoft boundary of Romagna on theS. E. where they-alfo border
on-the little republic of St. Marino ; and, purfuing the northern Bmits o f Tufcany and Lucca,
embrace Modena, Carrara, jand Mafia ; with Villa Franca, Ulla, and • Fofdinovo (imperial
Fiefs). Thence the boundary proceeds on the E. of Parma, and N. of Placentia, including the
Lumelline ; and, afcending the river Sella, comprizes the Val di Sella. A new grand road ha&Jaeep
opened by Mount Simplon- The remaining N. limit is chiefly th ifo f the Mflanele and Venetian
Bergairfefque; but with Chiavenna, the Valteline and Bormio. The Trentin-is left entire oil the ;
E . and the river Adige is followed from near Peri to its mouth, whence the Adriatic fea vcpm- *
pletes the line to the fouth of Romagna. Tortona, Voghera, and. the Fiefs on the W . o f Parma,
are; not included in the demarcation. The Prefidency of the Italian Republic has been' conferred
on the illultrious Chief Conful Bonapart.
The Pontiff Pins V I I . (Chiaramonti, elefted March 14th, 1800) retains the remainder of the
territories o f the church ; and the Catholic fyftem is declared predominant in France; .The kingdom
o f Naples remains entire ; and the hiftory of Charles V I I I . might have warned the French
againft any expedition into the fouth o f Italy. The new kingdom of Tufcany has been already
mentioned; (France is fuppofed to retain the file of Elba.) The fate of Piedmont feems not
finally determined, but it continues fubject to France.
