(having been relieved there by the Genuine), in two iiivifions : the firß under the command of Sir Arthur in perfon, eanfitting of five companies of the e3d, the sad and 92d, five cum pinks of the 9Sth, two fquadrons of hi:liars, with fix field pieces, and tome flying artillery of the Legion. The fecond divifion, un der Major General Linfengen,eooftßing of five companies of the 43d, be companies of the 95th,a battalion of Getnians, and the cavalry of the Legion. After feveral forced marches, we found that the enemy had left his pofition at Rofkilde, and we returned the fame evening to Rolkildkra, to prevent the enemy, who was fuppoCed to have gone to Kioge, from making any attempt upon our troops before Copen • bagels. This movement of Sir Arthur s divifion brought General Linfangen upon our right, from having been upon our left. The troops halted on the following day, snd on the 29th we marched, at four o'clock in the morning, towards Kioge, where we found the enemy poited, ready to receive us. Ibe column was batted, and Sir Arthur communicated with Linfengen's column, and arranged every thing, fo that he was to come upon the flank and rear of the town, at the fame moment that we made the attack is front. We moved forward preeikly at ten o'clock, left in front. and we formed line, with our left to the lea, about a mile or ra ther leis from the enemy. The 924 Highlanders were ordered to engage the enemy ; the other battalions alto moved on, in eel:el len of battalions; fifty paces &Rant, in rear of each other. The whole moved on in ordinary time. The 91d went up to the very months of their guns in fuperior style of Reedit:ere and precilion—charged them—and drove them at once froin their pofition and camp, fupported by the ocher regi-. talents ; that regiment was then threatened with a charge from their cavalry, who were drawn up on the lands, on the left ; bat their &Sign was fpeedily counteraeled by Sir Arthur's penetration and decifion, and they alto quickly gave way and left their pofi don. The fight then became general The Referee then moved on, marched in fedlions through the town, and formed upon the other fide (after pat& g the bridge), by marching in an alignment right in front, as coolly as we ever did on a field day at ehorneliff Heights. Sir Arthur then feat Colonel Napier of the 92d to the left, with a company of the 95th to purfue a column which had fled that way, and Sir Arthur followed with the other regiments, the ire .tcr part to the 'rent. We purfued them from four to five miles, and t icked up about two hundred of the enemy in the woods. The defeat was complete. Arms, accoutrements, Ste were thrown Away by them; fourteen pieces of cannon taken, and about Isoo prifoners. The killed and wounded amounted to nearly feven Iluodred, and all this with trivial tots on oar fide. They fired all their grape fhot , over us. Many bonnets were knocked off, tu w u t ees and h Ilbetts broke, belonging to the 924 regiment, and Li eu tenant Colonel I.amont had his harfe (hot. We returned at ten o'clock that night to Belifberg, near to Wollot Palace • and next day marched in Ouftoed , having been two days wi thout stead. I.infengen's divifion did not get up fo loon as was expec ted, otherwife the whole would have been taken. Report lays, their force in their camp and potation wasabout 7000 men.

In the laft mentioned fad there is, we believe, Come truth, but not Rated correaly— and we fufpeEt this gave rife to the other rumours. The departure of an Ambaffador, which generally gives rife to gloomy rumours, isnot at all applicable to this particular cafe. Mr. MUNROE has had it in contemplation for a confiderable time back to refurn to his native coun try, ever fince, indeed, Mr. PIN cxm ty was appointed to fucceed him. But he has, agreeably to the wines of his Government, remained in this country, prin cipally, if not (olely, in order to affifi Mr. PINCRNRT, in the Degociation of the American treaty. Indeed he has been for Come months ailing rather as the auxiliary of Mr. Placer's; than as Envoy of the American Government. Under all the circumfiances, therefore, Mr. MONROE'S departure, which is imme diately expefted, would rather warrant an oppofite prefumption to that which was afloat on Change upon Thurfday and yeflerday. It has been thought, that if Mr. Jsmasow, as has been reported, thould decline Randing Candidate for the office of Prefident,' Mr. Motmog's pretentious would be favourably received, and this perhaps may haiku his return home. So great an objet of am bition ought not to be indifferent to a good citizen and to a man of abilities. Letters from our fleet in the Baltic Rate a fail, which if true, is far from creditable to the Danifh cha roller. That upon a furvey made by our carpenters, cf the bottoms of the Danifh filips, it was difcovered that in the bows of 111011 of the Ibips, below water- mark, a fqnare hole had been cut, into which a piece of thin deal was neatly infested, but in fo flight a manner that not one of the (hips could have reached a Britilb port. If' there be any truth whatever in this Raters:era, we are willing to acquit the Danifh Government of any knt.wie,i)..,e of the fait. It will he neceffary, however, that this fall thould be a . m. I tained ; for if done with the knowledge or connivance of the Government, language cannot furnint an epi thet to mark the enormity of the crime.—The fol. lowing is one of the letters' which mentions the cir cumflance RESOLUTION, Copenhagen, Sept. to. " I was much furprifed to Ii id yetlerday, that -letters, which we had reafon to fuppofe were on their paffe.ge (at leaf% three days) t t were R il l on board a cutter in the roads. Knowing wh at intereft this expedition excited, I had written two letters by the c , which I have fence received back. We are lying in eight fa as water, dole to the tremendous Crown Battery, which, it cannot be elenied,is a wonderful piece of fortification. The Dant& co lours are RiU flying on it, and on the fuuthern block (hips. '1 he Officers are very fanguine in their hopes of the flares being all in Woolwich in three weeks; if it be. done in fix we flail have no reafon to complain. The weather is extremely cold, and we ex perience much rain. Of the three (hips building in the docks, one of them is a gallant 80-gun (hip, and is expedted to be completed in thc fpacc of a month. She is coppered and planked above the upper deck. To promote difpatch, Lord Cathcart turns into the dock-yards, to morrow, smiths, carpenters, &c. to the number of two thoufand ; and I hope they will be enabled to get the new (hip into the water within the time propofcd. The other (hips on the Rocks, are to be broken up instantly, and the timber, dte. from them, to be fent home. Nothing can equal the energy and emu lation manifefted by the different crews, in getting the !hips for ward. No doubt is entertained but that, from the Rate in which thc Danith fleet was found, it was getting ready for immediate fervice, and as little doubt remains how they were to act Their forward Rate will, in fume meafure, juilify our proceedings. It is glorious to find that the French have been, for once, over-reached After all our humanity and candour towards the Danes, I learn it was their intention to have played us a fcurvy trick ; indeed, I might call it a treacherous one. All the (hips of war were fecretly fkuttled ; and but for the timely difeovery, would all have funk at fea,and their crews have been drowned. How they will be able to anfwer for this work of iniquity, I am at a lots to guts." By Come private letters which have been brought by the IA Gottenburgh Mail, it would teem that Raffia and Sweden were upon the point of an imme diate rupture. While the Kiro of SWEDEN was in the ifland of Rugen, a Ruffian Chamberlain had ar rived. who was confidently reported to be the bearer of molt important difpatches. It was generally Elated, and fully believed at Gottenburgh, that the EMPEROR ALEXANDER had demanded of the KING of SWEDEN, that he Ihould pledge his royal word, 1 that the Swedifh navy (bould remain in Carlferosta, and in no event whatever ['lonia a& in concurrence with the Englifh fleet. The Ruffian Chamberlain, according to report, was commanded to return with the abfolute anfwer of the King of Sweden ;--which anfwer is Rated to have been in fubtlance, that the King of Sweden, as an Independent Monarch, wss matter of his own actions ; and that his alliance with England impofed obligations which he Would have no fcruple to fulfil when required.

The report of the removal of the Royal Surrey militia from Dover to Canterbury, is errone ous, no loch orders having been iffued. It is among the probabilities of the hop rearm, that calualities fimilar to the following fhould occur: A fire broke out on Tuefday morning in the hop °aft, belonging to Mr. D. J. Parker, near the Croft Keys, Canterbury, fuppofed to have been occafioned by the hurtling of a cockle, which at firft threatened fetious confequences, but by the timely and prompt afliilance of the inhabitants was luckily got under, after having deßroyed the roof of that part of the building where it originated•—ln the evening of the fame day a fimilar circumflance took place in another oaR, be. longing to Mr. Charles Delmar, in the precina of St. Augulline's Monafiery, which was alfo happily ex tinguiflied, after having done but trifling damage.

There men, the flower of that excellent regiment, being all remarkably young, and chiefly from the think conspanies, were commanded by a Captain of the Facers, accompanied by two of their own officers, and are now on their march to Chelmsford, the head quarters of the regiment to which they are deflined to form fo valuable an acquifition. The readinefs with which the men of the Worcefler were encouraged by their Colonel to volunteer, after the immediate provifion of the quota appointed by Government for the regiment, met its the higbeft panegyric. We have teen letters from Tome intelligent mer chants at Lithon, which cxprefs an opinion that the clofiog of the Portuguefe ports againft our trade is, notwithfianding all apprehenfions entertained, a very improbable event. This opinion, the writer of one of thefe letters grounds upon a calculation of Bois !AMITE'S policy. - He Rates. that the trade of this country with Portugal " is not as a molehill to a mountain (as he expreffes it) compared to the trade of France with that country." He, indeed, expref fes his furprife that the immenfe difproportion had not heretofore provoked the interpolition of our Go ?eminent, in order to curtail it: The writer there fore infers that France, however the may tile the language of menace to extort money, is not likely to take a;ty meafure that might endanger, if not dellroy, he advantages the derives fro?n the neutrality of Portugal.
