" We are now lying within fruit miles of the Crown Batteries at Copenhagen ; they have no (hips out except one line of battle fhip in the mouth of the hat bout, and on:: frigate and three block (hips.

We have nothing to do but with our boats : the enemy made a Cottle the night before lA, on our out•po(ls, with 2000 men, in which we had only too, but we drove them back again and killed feveral : nn our fide we have not as yet met with any lofs of confequence. The army took forty waggon loads of ammuniti )n, detlined for Copenhagen, three nights ago, and yellerday took fr,utteen more. It is foprofed the bombardment will take place in the courfe of a few days, and it is not expelled to hold out long.

The firing that was beard the preceding day by Capifin Sword, of the Charlotte, was the fcaling of the guns.

Ace tcutrue e.—Among the modern improve ment. in tarniing, the dairy has, of late years, been very much neglelled. So much of the profit of breeders deper,ling upon the facility with which the milk of the cow may be referred during the fuckling time of the calf, the following firbilitute, pled in Ger many, for the natural food of the young progeny, may be acceptable to our country Readers :—Let as much water be healed on the fire as the calf would be difpofed to drink, and when it boils, throw one or two handfuls of oatmeal into it, :Ind after remain ing in that flare for one minute, take it off, and let it be cooled to the temperature of new milk, when one or two pints of Ikimmed milk are to be added to it. With this beverare, the young animal will fatten and thrive prodigi , urfly, the milk of the pateat will be applied to the dairy, and the intelligent farmer will immediately difeover the great advantage to be derived, in the produce of am dairy, from Inch an expedient.

On the contrary, not the flighteft injury had b ee n done by our troops, either to the patrons or property of the inhabitants of Zealand : their difcipline and good condua has been fo exemplary, that we fir.d them praifed by the papers immediately under the influence of France. When the Princeffes left C o p en hagen, in conk_ queoce of the permiffinn granted by Lord Ceres. casv, they were accoßed by an officer commanding one of our advanced parties, who allured them they had nothing to apprehend, as the &RA troops came as friends, not as enemies, to Denmark.
