Rullia.
“ His received at Brunn the
Pruflian minitlcr, Haugwitx. He wat,
extremely fatisfied with ail that this plen
ipotentiary said to him, and received him
in the molt diftmguifhed manner. If
has by hi* councils increased the elteem
and welfare of PrufTia. No intrigue* will
be able to effedi any thing sgamft the
good dil'pofitioQ and true wisdom of
PrufTia. Tbe French nation, Glides,
does not depend on a Tingle man ; and
one hundred and fifty thousand more c
nemics would only serve to prolong the
war. France and Prussia in the prefer.t
circumftancea, can never fuffiriently”
praise the duke of Brunswick, M. M
Mollendorff, KnohelfdorfT, Lombard, Sc
efprcinlly the king himfclf. PrufTia ne

fpeded this park, and has given orders
that all these pieces should be sent to
France. It is without example that in
a single battle, frara 150 to 160 pieces
of cannon should be taken. All had
been fired, and bad rendered fervicc in
the aftion.
“ Several letters, from Vienna, as
sert, that a war with Prussia it not far
distant ; but it is much more believed
that a continental peace is near.”

LONDON, December 30.
Pa is paper* and Dutch Gazette* to
the 19th inilant, arrived this morning.
The Emperor of Austria after having
agreed to the armittice, is said to have
requested leave to extend it to the Rus
fiau*. Napoleon observed that he had
so completely surrounded them, that not
a man could tfcape ; but that from his
refpedt for the emperor Alexander, he
would fend general Savory to him, inti
mating hi* with to put an end to the ca
lamities of war, and to open a way for
the retreat of the Ruffian*.
General Savary on being introduced
to the Emperor Alexander, wa* received
in the moll gracious manner. He is said
to have cxprtffed the highell admiration
of the Emperor Napoleon.—General Sa
vary observed, “ that it was the 49th bat
tle which his Sovereign had gain.d,” to
which the Emperor Alexander is said
to have replied, “ that it wa* the firit
in which he wa* engaged.” When it wa*
alked what guarantee the Emperor Na
poleon would require ? Savary replied,
11 Only your word, Sire !”
It is reported, that Prussia is to cede
barcuth and Anfpach to Bavaria ; and
it is hkcwife said, Fall Friefeland and
Embden and Denmai k, for which flic is
to be indemnified by receiving part of
Hanover, namely, Luneburgh and Lau
enburgh, the territories of Bremen, &c-
But the is to cede Lubeck. Bonaparte,
it is said, has declared, that the Electo
ral dignity (hall be conferred on a neigh
boring Prince, fuppolcd to be the Duke
of Brunswick, others fay, the king of
Denmark, as duke of Oldenburgh.

Considerable doubts have prevailed
with refpedt to the number of (hip* that
have lately made their elcape from Bred.
A few week* ago, when the harbor was
reconnoitred by one of our cruizers,
there were in it twenty one fail of the
line, seven Irigates, and eight corvette*.
Letters from the Aigle, of the 3d and4th
date, that (he had been in and closely re
connoitred the harbor on one of those
days, and could not count more than ten
fad of the line, one frigate and four
brig* ; —eleven fail of the line, fix fri
gate* and fame corvettes have therefore
made their efcapc during the time our
fleet ha* been blown off the harbor.
January 13.
It was dronglv reported at Berlin,
when the lalt letters came away, that
Schimmelpenninck wa* about to refiga
the place of graud penfionary of Hol
laud, and wa* to be fuccecded by Louis
Bonaparte. This i* not a very impro
bable speculation.
There items no doubt that the Eledlor
of Bavaria is to be king ; and that Eu
gene Beauharnois is to marry hts daugh
ter.
But there is a talk of setting up ano.
ther kiHg. The Hamburgh correfpon
deut iufinuates, that the Eledlor of Wir
temberg looks for that dignity.—lt
would be strange enough if the daughter
of our mod gracious fovercign were to
beraifed to the rank of shs:cn by Bona
parte !
It is certain that Napoleon ha* been
pleated to accept the grand ele&oral or
der prelented to him by the elector of
Wirtemberg.
We underdand that the emperor Na
poleon has demanded of the elector af
Wirtemberg, the whole populatiou of
whole dominions does not exceed half a
million, an immediate aid of io,oco men.
The eledor has pubhlhed a long and la
boured addrels to hi* fubjed* oa the
occasion.
Saturday the letter* by the Lifboa
mail were delivered to the potl-office.—
The Spaniih government is reduced to

The Prince of peace has sent orders
to the different ports to equip a fleet of
j 25 fail of the line, to be ready for sea by
the end of March ; but the arfenii* are
unprovided with (lores, even for the re
fit of the reffels, which escaped dedruc
tion off Trafalgar.
Dnsrut Hbkhcake—About
the 30th of November, one of the moll
violent hurricanes was experienced oa
the road of Spain, that ever wa* remem
bered. A letter received by a respecta
ble house in town, from Valeniia, of the
23d ult. dates its effids to have been
mod dreadful at that place. It rained
inceffantiy for four days, during which
time upwards of two hundred houses
were waffled away, and not a vedige of
them left behind ; a number of persons,
in endeavouring to save their efteds, loft
their lire*. To add to the difatter, num
bers of (hipping were driven afliore and
shivered to atoms, aud many of the peo
ple on board periffied. The Bcrbice
packet, belonging to the house by whom
the letter was received, was one of the
(hips driven on shore ; and althoigh
strong built, (he did not furvjve the hur
ricane half an hour.

foreigners near our coaits, and at the ve

would be williug to resort to aay mes
