" FREDERICK WILLIAfiI." DECEMBER 21. The abfence of the Court, and the diflance of the; theatre of war, prevent this Capital from furnithing as much political intelligence as formerly. However, our communication with the Grand Army continues uninterrupted. Letters received by the la cornier mention, that General Oudinot had formed two fc lea companies of Combiners out of his corps, and + ' was getting ready to proceed at the head of his gre- madier. into Poland. Al the letters from that country mention the retreat of the Ruffians, who find them (elves too weak to venture an engagement, and are waiting for reinforcements at come dillance from the Villula ; but in proportion as. the Ruffians retreat, the Poles continue to rife, fo that the fituation of the former becomes every claymore hazardous. Many people think that the Cabieet of St. Peter (. burgh would find more fafetyis a treaty than in a campaign, the confequeaus of which maybe maul. culable. People who arc known to be well informed, allure us in their letters, that fix mosselts provificuss for the French army had ban pretty Well fecured. It is certain, that an army fo numerous was never before engaged at fuch a dillance from its own. country, and enjoyed fuch abundance. All the let ters received from French Officers at Warfaw, de. fcribe the cheerfulnefs and gratitude of the Poles to. . wards their deliverers. ' 4 MI the contention here (lays one of thefe letters) is among the citizens, in order to obtain the preference of providing for us." The 5 per cents. Confols, are 76 francs so cents.

Whether it arifes from our being more reconciled to our Situation than we were at fret, or from other canter, 1 cannot pre tend to fay, but it certainly is tine, that the city is become more chearful within there few days.

Betides, as the Governor of Mecklenburg was inverted with a command in the Ruffian army, he can be looked upon in no othir light than as ferving under the colours of the pin. ' cipal enemy of France.

That it is the will of the gmperor and King, on account of the affiaanee which this country has afforded to his ene• mica, that it thall be confidered as having made a common carafe with them. 2. That the future and ultimate fate of Mecklenburg will depend upon the condo& which Rutfia thall obferve towards Moldavia and Wallachia.
