By the Northern Liberties, captain Watt, ar rived yesterday in 40 days from Greenock, we have received our papers to the 11th of Decem ber ; these contain J .ondon dates to the Till— their contents are very important. On the Si of December, Mr. Canning an nounced to the lord mayor of London, that the emperor of Russia had published a declaration, in which he made known his intention of break ing off all communications with /F.itain ; to recai his ambat->ador, and not to permit the fiiilb.li mission to continue at St. Peter.,burgh. The king of Sweden had concluded an armis tice with France, to lie in force to the Ist of April ; and marshal Bi une was to proceed to Helsingburgh to open negotiations of peace. The English funds kept up ; this was attri buted by some to an appearance of something like a general peace said to be pending ; and there was a rumor on the Exchange on the 3d of December, that the French emperor had of fered to send an ambassador to England, with full |XHvers to treat of peace, on what he states to be an honoiablc basis, which was the instant ly restoring the Danish fleet ; but this propo se ion is said to have been peremptorily ref iv ed bv the British ministry. The British gene ral Moore, is stated in the Paris A/ouiteur to ha e left Sicily with the whole British force that was in that island, and tlmt the licet was dis persed in a storm in which some of the vessels were lost. A cutter arrived at Falmouth, from off Portugal, had been chased by live sail of the line, which the captain supposed to be French ; the English journalists suppose them to have been sir Sidney Smith’s squadron. When this cutter was off the Tagus, site learnt that the Poi tuguc-e and Russian fleet then consisted ot 21 sail of the line ; the former was r-ported tu be in the possession of the Spaniards. ‘Flic president’s message on op ining the pre sent session of congvess, was received 1 in En - gland on the 3d of December. The merchants of London, (says one of the papers) appear not to dread the consequences of the address ; on the contrary, they think it strengthens the opi nion, that all diffet cnc.es will be uLimalely de termined by tiie senate, the sentiments cf two thirds of whom arc supposed known) to be in op|jositiou to those of Mr. Jefferson. The speech had the effect of raising the stocks. JLcUctr; had been received in London, from Sp,.in, which siated, tbat several of the princi pal of the Spanish nobility, who were in oppo ■ i ion to the Prince of Peace, have f. iien sacri fices to tiis machinations. Among others, the duke de Medina Cili, the du kc (! s lufantado, and the marquis de las Amaviiias, arc said to have been beheaded, and u great number of grandees arrested, and are speedily to be brought to trial. This account is contradicted in the last paper. A treaty of partition is stated to nave been signed, for the divirion of the Turkish empire : me powers interested are France, Austria and Russia. France is to receive the provinces bordering on tlie Adriatic, the Seven Islands, the .Wnrea and Egypt ; Austria :s n have Ser na Bosnia and part of Wallachia ; .'.ml Russia tlui other part of M’allachia, Bessarabia, -Molda via and the Eland of Candia. The tLsunv of Constantinople is said not to be fixed. Fhe Bore, s British frigate, captain Scat, stiuck on the liana way tock, near the island of Jersey and was totally lost—the captain, his la- i dy, and all the men perished, except two tnli cers and between forty and fifty men. A grea- j ter quantity of snow fell in England in the lat-! ter end of November, than has been known for many years. In North Wales it is stated to be in many places upwards of sixteen feet deep. Some difference is stated to have taken place in the English cabinet relative to the Berlin ex pedition ; two oiThe secretaries of stale, are s.ud to have ceased to hold intercourse with each other, excepting on official business, in consequence, a change is said to he about to take place in the ministry—lord Chatham is to succeed the duke of Portland he is to be re placed by lord dulgrave—Mr. Canning is to go to the admiralty, an 1 be succeeded by lord Wellesly in the foreign office. It is stated in one of the papers, that a gen tleman arrived from France had brought intcl -1 gence. that a few days before his departure from Paris, a decree had been rdcred to be is sue! and was expected to be published in a day or two, directing the seizure of all American \essris in the ports of France, and interdicting r. future intercourse with the United State;, in consequence of their refusal to unite in the general confedeiacy against the commerce of G real-Britain.— City Gazette. IMPORTANT STATE PAPER. Declaration of llussia agaiitst l.nglar.d. The higher the value in which the Emperor held the ami*y of his Britanie mnjwKrv,’ Tlie keener tegret he must feel ;it tlie complete alienation of that monarch. Twice has the emperor taken up arms in :t cause in which the interests of England were in. .st immediately concerned : but he has solicit ed to no purpose her co-operation to promote the accomplishment of her own objects. He did not require she should unite her forces with his: he was anxious only she would make a diver sion in their favour. He was astonished that, in tlie furtherance office own cause, she fierself w ould make no exertion. On the contra cv, she looked on, a cold spectalrix of the sanguinary theatre of the war which she had herself kind led, and sent a part of her troops to attack Buenos Awes. Another portion of her army, w hich seemed to be destined to make a do er s. ’ii in Italy, has finally wit'.ulrew. from Sicily, where it was assembled. Hope? were enter tained that they had taken that step, in order to throw themselves on die Neapolitan coast ; hut it w as soon understood that they were employ ed in taking possession of F.g’ pt. But what most sensibly hurt the flings of his imperial majesty, was to see, that, in v iola tion of the faith and express stipulations of trea ties. England was annoying the maritime trade 1 his subjects ; and at what period was this proceeding adopted ? when the blood of the R .irriar.S Wts iih* J fri£ In the glorious battles which accumulated, and directed against the armies of his imperial majesty the emperor of the French, with whom England was, and still is, at war ! When the two emperors made peace, his majesty, notwithstanding just causes of dis- ; pleasure at the conduct of England, did not, , however, refrain from endeavouring to render i her services. The emperor stipulated, in that , very treaiv, tint fie should interpose his media- j t on between England and France; and lie uc- . cordiuglv made metier of that mediation to the ■ king of Great-Uritain, appriring him. that ; it was with a wish to obtain honorable cno - 1 tions for him. But the British ministry, adher- ‘ itig, no doubt, to the plan that was to dissolve and break off the ties bt tween Russia and Eng- j land, rejected that mediation. Tiie peace bet wen Russia nr.d France was , likely to bring about a general peace ; but it < •was a* this moment that England suddenly a- > woke from the apparent lethargy in w !-ich she : had slumbered; but it was only to throw into , the North fresh fire bran,ls, wki ‘u -.vere to re kindle, and have actual'y kindled, the flames of j war which she was desirous not to st extin- j guished. Her fleets, her troops, appeared on the Danish J coasts, to execute an act of violence, of which historv, so fruitful in example, records no pa rallel.” V power distinguished frr its ]ac ri'ul and moderate conduct, and for along and unexpect ed course of wise neutrality ; and who sustain ed, amidst surrounding ron archies kind of i moi'ii I dignity . find* itself treated tvs u'i ves -ti- j gaged in secret plsts, and was meditating the j downfall of England; while the who!,.-of these 1 imputations von* t.o'v re cant to justify the sitd- i den ‘tort er.ti’ - e spoliation of that power.

Tim emperor expects that his Britannic ma jesty, iu-'tead of permitting his ministers to scat ter fresh -eeds of war, in compliance only with bis own feelings, will be induced m conclude a peace with his majesty the emperor of the French, which would be extending, in a mjn nctq to the whole world the inestimable bless ings of peace. When due emperor shall be satisfied upon all the e points, and especial!) upon that of a peace | between France and England, without which no pare of Europe can expect to enjoy any real | tranquility, his imperial majesty will then wil- j lingly return to the relations of amity with Great ] Britain, which, in the state of just resentment which the emperor .should feel, lie has maintain- : ed, perhaps, too long. ■m ♦ ~ Brf.mex, October *6. The French Consul at Bremen, to his Excellency the Burgomaster, President of the Senate of this city. “ Sir—l am eager to inform you, that it is the intention of his majesty the emperor and king, my august sovereign, that all navigation upon the Wcser be prohibitted. “ It is his majesty’s desire, that a!! vessels, even French, entering the Weser, be stopped, provided they are wholly or partly laden with colonial produce, or any other goods of vvliateq j Ter that England can furnish ; the j are to be put under sequestration, and taken u charge uruil new orders. li Vessels laden solely with merchandize* which it is impossible England can .furnish, ! such as pitch, tur, jigd, copper and i’lench ; wine*, are tc be exempted from seizure, i “ Ail vessels are to be prevented from Icav j ir*g the JFeser. “ I am finally ordered to take the most effi ; radons measures, that the intentions of his ma jesty be atrictly and immediately fulfilled. ; “I am now occupied in executing these or -1 de:’s, and hasten now to warn you thereof, iu order that you may immediately inform the me: chants of this city, that they may avoid the inevitable joss to which they will he exposed, if they attempt to render ineffectual the measures taken for the rigid and prompt execution ofil-.e orders of my sovereign. “ I avail myself ot this opportunity to ex press to your excellency the homage of tr.y respect. “ Laoau. London, November 2i. By a letter from Quebec, of the 4th tilt, we learn, “ that the president of the council- had invlu-'J sir J.

About 5000 rnillua and 2000 Indians can be assembled shortest notice at his call, and upon his taking the field a much larger force will join him,. iso that the late provident measures of ministers, seconded by the exertions of sir John Johnston, will-oppose a formidable barrier toanv attempts on the part of the United Stales, in the event -f a rupture. Dispatches were received yesterday at the admiralty from the /.Title. They bring fresh accounts of the hostility of the Danes. Cion burgh castle is provided with cannon, in the best possible manner, for commanding iho Sound. It fires upon every British vessel that attempts to pass it. The Sound, however is four miles across, and our vessels, by keeping to the Swedish side, may pass in safety. December 2. Sir Samuel Hood sailed on Monday fiom Plymouthiu the Centaur, with theCaptair.York, Intrepid, Success and I/Afiicah'.e, with the 1 litj regiment of foot on board. Five, sail of the line of admiral Keaton’ squad ron have been ordered to sail immediately un der secret orders. The admiral bin roll v s sent for to town express on Monday, and v e believe wiil have the command of the squad ron. Private letters have - ecu brought over in a smuggling vessel from I.ikidh burr. They ivu e served to give birth to a numhei of repoi*ts, some ci which we are far from crediting, and shall mention but briefly, ‘i hey sa; lh- i fit- ui arrangements have been made between bra: a and Russia; and that the king ot West; in-h;* is to possess Berlin for his residence ; ;:<.! li at Frederick William is to be indemnified by too possession of Dar.i/hck. December 5. ! Sir Robert Wilson, it is said, has hi eight I intelligence to govern-cnt. which he beam on high authority at Petersburg!!, that Bonaparte 1 has determined to make .immediate pre.-na tions for the invasion of this country. lieiar-d or Scotland, it is -.opposed, will be the hist ob ject of his attempt. I* is reported, in letters from Pctersburgh, that general Bavaty makes it his boast in hat capital, that Bonaparte will invade this couutiy with .300,000 men. Government we understand, have received intelligence from Lisbon of so late a fcate as the 17th ult. On the night of the 11th, a cou: cil was suddenly assembled, at which all the min isters attended. At this meeting it was an nounced, that the Portuguese an bassreor to the court of Madrid, had been ordered to quit that city in 24 hours; that the invasion of Por tugal was determined on ; and that the uclvam e guard of the French army would p.,ss thtrf. on tiers on the lUh November. In qonsetpience of these indications of hostility, it was ; c solve cl that all the edicts and proclamations which had I been issued against British commerce should ; be immediately rescinded, and that the eoiii:, : whenever the danger becomes imminent, ! should embark for the Brazils. Tins statement 1 is sanctioned by the circumstanced a number of licences having been yesterday issued for the protection ol vessels clearing out for the ports of Portugal. December 10. The squadron under admiral Otway is sup posed to be stationed at St. Helen’s, under the idea that the Russian squadron may escape from the Tagus. This supposition has been strength ened by the circumstance of none of the ships that compose admiral Otway’s squadron being able, in their present state to go to sea for more than a week. Intelligence from sir Sidney Smith is expect ed with the greatest anxiety. On the 17th 1 e ! was a little to the eastward of Lisbon bar ; ?rd , it is not improbable that he entered the Tague i the next day. ihe French troops could not reach Lisbon before the end of las t month. An American vessel has been brought into Cowes in distress, by an English cruiser. She left Chcrburgh on Friday night lasi.

Ancthr; order, however, for the further detention of all Ame rican ships, reached Chcrburgh from Pat is on the 4th : nor could the vessel which arrived at Cowes on Monday, have escaped, had not the captain hastily proceeded on beard the mo ment he heard of the new aider, i.d wi.hou:
