By the arrival of the brig Fairfield, captain Foster, in the very short pas sage of 37 days from Copenhagen, we have been favored by the politeness and attention of captain F. with Hamburgh and Copenhagen papers to the 27th September. The following translations, obligingly furnished by Mr. Hauff, Swedish con sul in this place, shew, that their con tents are HIGHLY INTERESTING, Copenhagen, Sept. 25.... They write from Konishberg, that troops are em barking in several Russian ports, to be transported to Pomerania. The combined Dutch-French army, in Holland, is said to amouut to 70,000 men. Several camps are formed on the frontiers of Russia. The Prussian troops are moving to wards the Grand Army now forming in Saxony. It is said that the French Minister at Berlin has demanded his passport. The Prussian troops in every direc tion are in motion. Nothing is said in the German papers relative to Austria. From the German papers. —The fate Prussian Minister at London, Mr. Ja cobi, who had proceeded on his journey home, has arrived at Hamburgh ; and, it is believed, intends returning imme diately to England. The French troops on the Rhine and Maine are in motion ; and a part of them actually passed over the right bank of the latter river at Frankfort. The French Emperor’s Body Guards have quitted the Palace of St. Cloud, and been replaced by other troops. The treasures of the Cathedral at Munster have been removed to Madge burg, for safety. From the Hamburgh Correspondent of Sept. 26.—The number of the Swedish troops in Lauenburgh increases; and, it is said, they are to be joined by a bo dy of Prussian troops. 'The Prussian minister has frequent conferences with our cabinet. From London papiers, September 19. Although it seems the English are not willing to exclude neutrals from trad ing to Buenos Ayres, yet it is sappos ed the duties will be such as not to en courage the importation of any other than British goods. Mr. Sheridan has declined the honor of the Westminster election. Earl Per cy will probably be elected, having the support of Lord Grenville and other distinguished friends. Bets are laid, that the negociation, will break off within a fortnight. Stocks, 3 per cents, 63 1-4 62 7-8 ; Omnium, 7 1-2 3-4, 7 1-4. FURTHER INTELLIGENCE. Captain Foster left Constadt the 13th, and Copenhagen the 30th September. Previous to his departure from the for mer place, he learnt, that no part of the treaty which had been signed at Paris, by M. O’Ouibt il, was agreeable to the views of the Emperor Alexander, or in conformity to his instructions; and that such was the indignation of the Russi an court against this minister, for hav ing violated the faith which he owed to his sovereign, that an order of banish ment had immediately followed his re turn to St. Petersburgh, and M. D’Ou bril was no longer to be found among the living, unless on his way to the de serts of Siberia ; that the greatest ac tivity prevailed in levying and embody ing troops ; that immense camps iiad been formed; that large bodies were marching towards the frontiers; and that nothing else was talked of hut war against France, a measure which ap peared to be very popular among all classes; that the Prince Constantine, brother to the Emperor, was spoken of as being highly in favor of the war, and had offered the utmost assistance which he could lend to the cause. Captain Foster further advises, that the day before lie left Copenhagen, ac counts were received at that place, per mail, that every hope of peace had fi nally vanished; and that hostilities had actually commenced between Prussia and France; that Lord Lauderdale had demanded his passports, and was on the point of quilting Paris, three sever al times, during the negociation, with out having effected the object of his em bassy ; but that from circumstances j which were not known to the public, | though not affecting the serious busi ness of the negociation, he still remain ed at Paris, at the date of the last ac counts from that city. On the subject generally of a renewed Continental War, captain Foster was desired to re port, by his merchant at Copenhagen, that the safest calculations might be made on the certainty of its commence ment, and a strong probability of its long continuance. In our last London papers, it is men tioned, that the following paragraph was omitted, by mistake, in the official letter of gen. Stuart—lt should have followed the article which relates to the first movements of the British army, when marching to attack the French ar my in Calabria. “ Had gen. Regnier thought proper to remain upon his ground, the diffi culties of access to him were such that I could not possibly have made an im pression But quitting this advantage amqpßsing the river with his entire force, he came down to meet us upon the open plain—a measure to which he was no doubt encouraged by his cavalry, an arm with which unfor tunately, I was altogether unprovided.” NEW-YORK, Nov. 19. \esterday afternoon the ship New Guide, capt. Hall, from Liverpool, came up to the city, after being detained be low by head winds. Our London pa pers by the New Guide are to the 25th of September, six days later than be fore received. They state, on the au thority of a letter from Plymouth, that Lord St. Vincent has taken out all the ' Portuguese ships of war at Lisbon, and is rigging them with all possible dis patch, and no doubt will bring them - away with him, and all the Royal Fa- ! mily. 1 lie Veteran, Jerome Bonaparte’s j ship, is hauled into the inner harbor at Concarneau, and moored head and stern to the shore, there not being room for her to wing; her guns are taken out to make batteries to protect her even there, and her sails unbent, so apprehensive are they of a visit from some of the Bri r tish ships. i LONDON, Sept. 23. i The Expeditionn. —The variety of • thesr, the mode ot equipment of some of them, and the term for which they ■ are variously victualled, puts conjecture at defiance. A great many fiat-bot tomed boats have been sent from the ■ Downs, and most of the transports have ■ now one or two of them. With sincere pleasure we learn, that rewards and honors are to be conferred ■ on Sir Home Hopham and Major Gen. ’ Beresford. On Sunday the transports with the following regiments, sailed from Ports mouth. 40th Regiment, Ist Battalion ; 40th do. 2d battalion ; 14th do. 2d battalion ; sth German Legion, detachment; 6th do. detachment; 7th do. whole regi ment; and Bth do. whole regiment. Part of the 9th dragoons marched through Dover yesterday from Deal, on their way to Portsmouth, where they are to be embarked for foreign service. Major General Sir Arthur Welles!.y and Sir George Prevost, will it is said get the commands of sepefate expedi tions. Sept. 25. We understand that the following arc the new arrangements which are agreed upon in consequence of the lamented death of Mr. Fox. Earl hitzwilliam, from indisposition, wishes to retire from the situation (whjch requires regular attention) of Lord President, but to retain his seat in the Cabinet. Lord Sidmouth, to be Lord President. Lord Holland to be Lord Privy Seal. Lord Howick, to be Secretary of State for the Foreign De partment. Mr. 1 homas Grenville, to be first Lord of the Admiralty. Mr. Tierney, to be President of the Board of Controul. Mr. Braggs Batharst, to be Master of the Mint, vice Lord Chas. Spencer. Mr. Whitbread will also be speedily called into office, but the ar rangement for that purpose is not yet matured. We can now' add, with the utmost confidence, that Lord Grenville proceeded on Monday morning to Windsor, to to take the King’s plea sure upon the above nominations, all 1 of which it is presumed will be confirm- ; ed at the privy council held this day. THE EXPEDITIONS. One of the expeditions now fitting ' out is for the Spanish Main. We un- > derstand that the 26th, the 87th and 89th regiments, are to go on this ser vice'. | “ Plymouth, Sept. 22. “ This morning early, the wind hav ing sprung up at E. N. E. the signal was made for the transports to wei-rii immediately and put to sea. Every preparation for sailing was made in con sequence, and, had the wind continued, I the whole would have been clear of the 1 port before this time; but it soon veered back to the Westward, and prevented their proceeding. “ Orders have been received this day to prepare thre£ transports for the re ception of the 87th regiment of foot, which we understand, are to be joined bv the 89th regiment,from Portsmouth, and then both proceed direct for Bue nos Ayres. “ The Glatton, of 50 guns, is fitting with all dispatch for a foreign station ; it is said that she is to take the three Last Indiamen that are here under con voy as tar as Bengal Bay, and then to proceed for Botany Bay. The Koyal George of 110 guns, has still the signal for sailing flying, and ali the ships are at single anchor ready for a start. (ien. Sir Hugh Dalrymple goes out in the Royal George, his stoics were put on board yesterday.” The foreign intelligence received bv tae french papers ytsterdav, though it is well enough understood that all that comes through that channel, wherever it may be* dated from, is of Parjy.ii> manufacture, had the effect to lower the iunds a little. Nor are we surprised at it, for it is plain even from the care tak en to give such intelligence a flavonr suited to the French palate*, that the french cabinet is under considerable apprehensions that a war between France and Prussia, in which the latter will be assisted by Russia, and perhaps by other powers, is at no very great distance. Lord Ha vkesbury sailed on hoard the *1 lianies Ligate, a lew clays ago, in j order to take a Jeefi at Boulogne. His I lordship was yesterday landed at Deal, I and Was saluted with 15 guns from the frigate on leaving her. We understand the remains of Mr. Fox will lie in state three days, at his house in S'. James s*—if the Prince of Wales does not follow him as chief mourner, 1 .ord Ilolland will. Ilis lord ship issued cards of invitation to a num ber of distinguished characters, to fol low his illustrious uncle, as mourners. I hey include the whole of his col egues in office : the Duke of Devon shire, the Marquis of Tavistock for his lather the Duke of Bedford, the Mar quis of Harringdon, Earl Pearcy, Lord W. Russell, Mr. Byng, and Mr. Whit bread. The whole number invited, ,a mount to about forty. Jockey Club Races. At a meeting of the ait or. .a jockey CLUB on the2oth hist.
