My Lord—l have the honour to inform you of my arrival here with his hlajefly's armed (hip Charles, Captain Clephane, on the lath infant, the Falcon (loop of war having Hired us on the fame day. His Excellency General Kalkreuth fufpe&ing that the enemy would be fupplied with provifions by tea, I ordered the Chalks to cruize between Role Hind and Dant zic Bay, to intercept any loch veltels. Hay ing fuggefted to his Excellency the Governor the uti• I.ty of having a (hip in tie Fair Water, a place of confiderable importance , and which had been fre quently attacked by the enemy, it met his warmeft approbation, and I was honoured with his thanks for having anticipated his with on this occafion. I ac cordingly Li nog!): my fhip in the Fair Water on the 16.1), and moored her in a flanking pofition on an ialanur, which the enemy would be obliged to pats in order to make an attack thereon. On the follow. ing day. finding the ce.mmunication flopped between Fair %Veer and the city of Dant ?lc, the enemy hay log polled themfclves cn the left bank of the liver Vitlula, called the Nehrung, I determined to endea vour to force a communication, and by great exer tions on the Fait of my cfficers and (hip's company, I get the fhip lightened that evening to as In enable her to heave through the fluice, the mouth of the river Vittula. At half pall fix P. M. on the fame day, I com menced anion with the enemy at the Great Hol landu, on the Nehrung, who oppofed to us a very Chong force of mufketry, fuppofed to be about two or three thoufand men, in their entrenchments, and fbeltered by the ruins of houfes lately burnt, with three pieces of artillery, affißed by a fmall battery on the right bank of the river called the Legan. The anion continued within pißol flint until nine o'clock, when feveral of our gun breechings being flint and carried away, and having no wind to maintain our pofition, I endeavoured to get the flarboard broad fide to bear upon the enemy, but without drat, the current (cuing down. I then hauled down the river to refume my ration at the Fair Water. The gal lant conduit of my officers and feamen were Inch as ever charaeterizes Britifh feamen ; and though my efforts were not completely fuccefsful, from the wind , failing us, I have the fatisfaCtion of laying that it ap• pears to have a good effett in infpiring the inhabi tants here and at the city, with additional energy and confidence in the caufe which we are engaged in, and 1 have been honoured with a very handfome and flattering letter frcm his Excellency General Kal kreuth, Governor of Dantzic, on this occafion, in which lam happy to have anticipated his views.

NICE, MM' IS. An Englifh frigate, which has been crnizing off thiipoit for fome days. made an attempt laft night to cut out a Genoefe Polacre. About eleven o'clock at night four boats from the frigate, each with 25 men, attacked the Polacre. They were received. as we are accultomed to receive the Englifh in every part of the Empire. The Polacre was fo well de fended, that, after an affirm of two hours, one of the boats was funk, and the three others were forced to re treat towards the ft igate. One of the men who was on board the boat which funk, was Caved by the crew of the Polacre. VIENNA, MAY 8. The Emperor and Archduke Charles will not re turn from Hungary for feveral days. Mr. Adair, the Eng% Mini Der, has received, by a courier, his letters of recal, and has apprized Count Stadion of the circumtlance. He will, however. remain till his fuccalr arrives. PRIVATE LETTER. The fallowing detail is contained in a letter from a young gentleman to his relatives in Edinburgh : " Sally, mouth of the Viftuta, Mays. " We arrived at Elfineur on Thurfday the 9.1) of April, after a very pleafant ;Wage. The fame day Captain Chetham received orders to proceed imme diately to Dantzic, as the French had laid liege to it ; accordingly, we failed by day-break on Friday, in company with the Falcon (loop of war, Captain Sanders, and the Charles armed brig, Captain Cle phane. We anchored in Copenhagen Reads, at i t A.M. and the Captain' went a(hore to receive their inflrudions. We weighed again in the evening, with a good breeze, and came-to in Dantzic Bay on Sun day afternoon. The French and Pruffians had an engagement that night, which hafted till about half. palt eleven o'clock. They have made feveral attempts to norm the place ; but were driven back with con fiderable lofs each time. The third day after our arrival, the paffage from Fair-water (a (mall town at the mouth of the Valuta) up to Dantzic, was nor, by reafon of the French getting polfefEon of the batteries along the banks of the river. It was then agreed upon, that we fhould bring the (hip into the harbour, and try to drive them out of their in trcnchments. Accordingly, on Thurfday we got off a pilot, and brought the (tip into the Fair -water, where we lay all that night; and on,Friday morning, we began to lighten her, in order to get her up the river. We got up at four in the afternoon above the boom way, about a mile from the plate where the French were lying; at half pall fix we hove to under the 1 batteries, when a defperate engagement enfued, not 1 above 20 fathoms from them. We did not know exadly the number of the enemy; but the nearefl we can judge, we think there mull have been from two to three thoufand. Their principal fire was musketry, with feveral pieces of artillery, one of which we difmounted in the ,beginning of the anion. The darknefs of the night gave the enemy a great advantage over us; likewife four of our gun-breech ings gave way, which flackened our fire a good deal. 1 —After an aftion of two hours and a half, we were obliged to haul off, having our Fiat Lieutenant and fev:nteen of our men badly wounded. There are upwards of a thoufand (hot holes in the [hip's fide ; likewife the malls, fails, and rigging, are very much injured: our fignal haulyards were twice (hot away, and the colours brought down, fo that at laft we had to lath them round the fpanker-boom. We do not exadly know the lofs the enemy fultained ; but, by a deferrer from them, we are told, that they had 300 killed, and a great number wounded. The inha. bitants here are very much reduced for want of provitions, there being none to he had for money.— There are two or three (hips loaded with provilions and ammunition, in the Fair Water (the latter they are alfo very much in want of), but they are afraid to venture up the river with them. We are expeding that we will have to take them up to the town is the Sally, as it will be impoflible for the inhabitants to hold out the liege much longer without them. We are in daily expedation of a reinforcement of troops here, which will be of great fervice. The French keep up a continual fire, both night and day, at the town ; it has been calculated, that no lefs than 20,000 (hot and (hells have been thrown into it, in the courfe of the IA eight days. There have been a great many houfes thrown down, and fet on fire, by the hurtling of the (hells upon them • likewife, numbers of the inhabitants hare been killed in the Rreets by the great quantity of shot flying about in all diredions, from the enemy's batteries on the fur rounding hills, which the Pruflians, very imprudent ly, allowed them to get potfellion of. There have alto been two (hips funk in the river by them. It is fuppofed, that when we leave this, we will have to i elate to Lcith to get refitted." THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3.

Every nerve is (trained to batten the de parture of the Expedition now preparing for the Continent. The latt difpatches from the allied army are, we underhand, fo very urgent for a Britifts force, that Minifters have determined to batten the depar ture of Lord CATHCAItr, or Sir DAVID BAIRD im. mediately. _ _ _ The Command of the allied army is definitively conferred on General BENNIGSEN. This has bees" done in a manner which greatly enhances the high honour fo bellowed. The Emperor ALEXANDER, after expreffing in General Orders his entire appro bation of. the conduit of General BINNIGSEN ) and of the high fenfe and opinion which he entertains of his talents and his fervices, orders it to be notified to the army, that the fupreme cnmmand is relied in that Officer, and that all difpatches are to be tranf mitted to, as well as orders received from him. We unit that the iffue of the contefl on the other fide of the triflula will amply juaify this exalted, confidence. An opinion is again very prevalent, founded on the rumours brought by the WI Mail from the Continent, ' that an engagement has certainly taken place before this time, which, if not general, would at any rate embrace a confiderable part of the whole line of the two contending armies. As it cannot but prove in terefling at fuel a moment to know the relative poll tions of the troops, we lay the following detail before cur readers : Theleft wing of the French main army is Rationed on the Nogat, and its polition reaches over Elbingen, Braun(berg, along the left fhore of the Pafarge, up to Gutftadt. The centre is placed fomewhat in the rear, round Preuflifch Holland, Leibßadt, and Mob. rungen. - m Gutftadt the army Ili-etches itfelf ee potence above Allenftein, and the right wing main. tains, above Ortelfburg, a communication with the left wing of she army of Matfhal Messrs right is on the Bug, and from thence to the the Narew. The left wing of the French whole front along the PaiTarge, a num) trenchments and batteries, by way of c Before the centre and the right wing, are and mpraffes, fo that an attack on this tide made without great difficulties. To provi accident., there is behind, between the Pal the Weichfel, an intermediate pofition of went z, behind which magazines have been Of the Allied Army, the right wing is the Pru ; this wing is rationed by the is (tretched along the right !Lore of the P Wormdit. The advanced guards are a. feparated by nothing but the river, which, dillance from the mouth, is narrow, am places fo &allow as to be waded over by defy territory occupied by the Pruffians has hit rather fpared. An excellent fpirit is prevalent corps, which is compofcd of troops who wr fent at the engagement in Saxony, and of the great army. It will one day be known corps has effected during the lait fix moot' has fuffered, and with what firmnefs it has with its delliny. The pofition of the Rum... begins at Wormdit, and is aretched over Heelibetg Bartenflein, and Schippenbeil. 'ln the lan place ar the magazines, from which principally the Pruffian receive their forage. This country has fuffered el ceedingly. The Ruffian army has an advanced pan before its right wing, its centre and its left wing Hellman Pzerow commands the IA wing, anti ha putted his parties even to Ortelfburg, where, latterly, frequent fkirmifhes have taken place, while, in every other part, there has prevailed a fort of armiflice.— Since the arrival of the Emperor ALEXANDER i Pruffia, it appears that a confiderablecorpsof Ruffian ha?been rationed not far from the Narew ; this ha probably occafioned the movements of MASSENA. Betides the leading armies of the hoflile powers, there is to be noticed on the part of the French, the corps befieging Dantzic, under Marthal LEFEBVRE. It confifis of French, Poles, and Baden troops. Fur. ther, the corps before Colberg, of French, Italians, and the German contingent troops. In Silefia, undet Prince js aow a, are the Bavarians and Wurtembergers. Here tilt fortreles of Neale, Cole!, Glatz, and Saber. berg, are 11W to be conquered. Betwixt the Elbe and the Eallern Ocean, an army of obfervation is coiled. ing together, tinder Marfbal Bevan ; it is to confill of Dutchmen, Spaniards, and Frenchmen.

We expea here to-morrow the French horfe char feurs and cuiraffiers ; they will be followed by the Spanifh regiment cf Guadalaxara, and feveral other regiments. So much has been Paid lately of negotiations, and the reports which have been circulated are fo contra diefory, that it is difficult to know what to believe. It'is, however, generally believed that the nego- tiations are not fo far advanced as was believed.— They fay that the Emperor Napoleon, always anxima to employ all the means in his power to prevent the efujicso of blood, had propofed peace to the Emperor of Roc ha and the King of Pruflia, on very moderate terms; that the two Sovereigns replied, that they were ready to treat, but that their connexions with Great Britain and Sweden did not permit them to a& without the participation of thole Courts. It is Paid that Frarce did not oppofe this propofiti , n, declaring that the wifhed for a general peace. The principle of corn. penfations was then propofed as the bails of peace, and force general articles were even dikoffed ; all thefe propofitions have been communicated to the Courts of London and Stockholm, but their anfwers have not yet been received. The letters from Poland fay, that thefe communications have been made through the medium of Aids de-Camp, but that no diplomatic conferences have yet taken place. Baron St. Vincent, who reprefents the Sovereign whole mediation has been accepted, has been made acquain ted with what has paged ; but it is feared that the intrigues of the Englifh Miniller will frullrate the efforts of the friends of humanity.
