Another Anholt Mail arrived this morning. The greater part of the accounts from Sweden are unin teresting. The wife of General Bitaganorre, alias Om cripip Prince of SweneN, and her son Prince Clseitei have a:rived safely at Stockholm. "They crossed the Belt Vithin sight of a British fleet. A Deptitation:has been • sent from Copenhagen to congratidate the neviftutsay on their arrival in Sweden. Letters by ;his mail stieik, but with caution, of something like a spirit of resistance on the part of the Norwegian seamen, to the mandates issued under French influence for their removal to Holland to man the Scheldt fleet. The letters from Holland are more explicit: they state that in 'Norway 3000 men, in tended to be removed to Holland to man the ships of war there, had refused to proceed thither, and that the Danish troops which were ordered to compel them, had declined any interference. 1 It appears by letters from Petersburgh, of the 7th silt, that the Committee of Merchants which had been aPpointed to communicate with the Emperor in per' aen and alone, has been dissolved by the influence of CAVLINCOURT, who considered this arrangement as calculated rather to cover than to facilitate the disco. very of British manufactures and colonial produce... It would also appear that the yielding of this point is not the only degradation which ALEXANbitIt must sub mit to : the resignation of Finland has certainly been , demanded, and must be complied with, or war be re- i sorted to. Indeed it is strongly suspected that in a I short time a war will be promoted by the emissaries of BONAPARTE at the Court of St. Petersburgh, to furnish a pretext for seizing upon the provinces of the! Russian Empire adjacent to the Baltic Sea. Judg- ' from past experience, we should think it cannot be very distant; all public accounts from the North exhibiting at this mo meat uncommon industry to prove 1 that a war cannot possibly take place ! The last accounts from Holland state, that the conscription has been extended to children of the age of thirteen.—The Scheldt fleet is moored in. Ruppel. I . So favourable has the wind been since glutflay ee'nnight, when the large fleets sailed for Portugal, Cadiz, the Meditetvaneaa, West Indiest and the Cape, which- had been detained test weeks by con trari winds, that by ibis time the fleet for Portugal must have entered the Tagus. By this fleet the im mense quantity of bedding, clothing, and other stores, much required by Lord WatutraroN, have been sent but The 'Warwick - shire Militia have marched troth Horsham to Blatchington barracks, and have been telieved at Horsham by the Bedfordshire militia from Blatchington. General WYNARD, Adjutant-General, has set out for Portsmouth. Thursday morning the embarkation of the Royal Artillery Drivers, &c. for Lisbon, comthenced at Ply mouth. They were embarked on board the trans ports with the greatest celerity, and sailed for Portu gal at four o'clock in the afternoon, under convoy of the NORTH STAR sloop of war. Another detachment of Cavalry, with their horses, marched into Plymouth on Saturday, to embark for Lisbon. 7- During the last week, detachments of the 3d and. 4th Dragoons, the 14th Light Dragoons, and the Ist Light Dragoons of the Gorman Legion, in all about 300 men, with their horses, from Shoreham Barracks, Etc. passed through Salisbury for Plymouth, to em bark for Portugal.

The Public must have been glad to hear so much said lately about conscience. In the days of Sir Pertinax Macsycophai.t, " conscience was as untiorfiamailary word." On the 27th ultimo, T.

They sailed from Cadiz bound for the Havannah, and from thence to South America. The British 74. had to send 56 men on board the three deckers, the Spaniards not being able to work the ships. The troops that left Porto Rico three months ago, to quell the insurrection a t Caraccas, were principally Massacred. The peopld of that country were determined to support its in,te, pendence. The day before his departure from St. John's, a vessel arrived frorn New Barcelona on the Main, with several families for safety. In Windsor, Vermont, lately died an Indian cirl, of the Mahaw Nation, residing between the sources of tit! Mississippi and the Missouri Rivers. Her life, though short, was not destitute of incijent. At the age of four years, every soul in the village to which she be longed, except herself and a young Indian, were 11115_ sacred in their sleep by a patty of Sioux. The young man escaped ; she was tumahawked and left for dead. Afterwards, being found alive, she was kept some time a prisoner, till she was sold to a party of Chip. pawas, and by them to a French Trader, who brought her to Micalintakinak, at the age of seven years. She had then travelled some thousands of utiles, and ' had been obliged to speak (as well as she could) four different languages. Her fifth was the English. She bore about her marks of savage fashions, as well as of savage violence ; was a shrewd active child ; and died of a consumption aged eleven years. Extract of a letter from an English Merchant at Baltimore, dated the 80th November, 1810 44 All foreign trade here is nearly at a stand, and what the Americans send to France is so encumbered with hazard and complicated and chargeable duties, that scarcely any one knows what to do fqr the best. I went yesterday to see a famous cotton manufactort on the Manchester plan, which is established and flow. rishes, within three miles of this city s they have like. wise in several of the States, considerable manufacti. ries of broad cloths, which approach very nearly deed to your best Yorkshire cloth. It is evidently the fixed purpose of the people here, as well as the govern. !anent, to become daily and hourly mote and more independent of Europe, and eventually to make Ea.' rope court America for a supply of grain aid raw materials and other substantial articles of indispensable necessity. 44 I have just read an account that his Majesty's brig Rhodian, Captain Mowbray, had been drives out opt the reefs, and on shore at Andross Island, with the !Ass of all her spars, excepting only the foremast and bowsprit ; no lives were lost. 44 Every creature here appears to be anxious ;n the highest degree, for the repeal of your Orders in Coun cil, and cannot imagine what kind of poliey it is that can suggest an opposition to their repeal. " Cooke, the actor, is doing wonders at Newyork; and what you may deem most wonderful, it is under stood that he bath been sober ever since his arrival in the new world ! The people cf Baltimore lime de• sired Mr. Warren, the Theatrical Manager here, to invite him to perform in this city, on the most liberal terms." Sunday se'nnight, as three boys were skaiting Horshays, near Shiffnal, the ice broke in, and they all perished. The weather since Monday se'onight has set in with uncommon severity. Friday the Canal in St. James's Park was covered with skaiters. The ice, however, not being sufficieatly strong, several of the adventurers fell in. Five young men were taken out immediately, with the assistance of ropes and • hooks. Sunday the Serpentine River asAnned a most lively appearance ; several thousand :takers were assembled to display their agility. In the early part of the day a man fell in through the ice, and was drowned. Every exertion was made to save him, but in vain.—The Paddington Canal i 4 also frozen up and. for several miles, the lovers of skaiting are; us great numbers, enjoying that healthful amusement. The effect of the present weather upon the River readers it an object of much curiosity. For several days it has been covered on the Middlesex shore, be tween Somerset House and Westminster Bridge, with one solid sheet of tough ice, which every flood tide has increased, the current then concurring with the wind to drive new masses of floating ice against it. This solid covering, yesterday, reached nearly as far out as the centre arch of the bridge, and there was a floating body of large loose masses, passing it t o the breadth of one or two arches beyond the centre. A little below' the bridge; the solid mass was still wider, and 14 this and the moving ice, which was so close as to be distinguishable from it, the river was there so far covered, that not more than one third of it was :navigable. . Between two and three o'clock four ad venturous fellows, with boat-hooks in their hands, got upon the ice off Richmond House, and with much difficulty, from the roughness of it, went about a bun. dyed yards from the shore and wtanned. If the wind and weather continue as they are for five or six days, the river will be completely frozen over at Westmin. ster-bridge. A poor i•leot, known by the name of Hawley, and who has been for years the sport of boys, and the amusement of the hackney-coachmen, in Piccadilly and St. James's-street, and who generally wore a sol. diet's dress, with cross-belts, cartouch-box, tac. was frozen to death on Friday night last at Pimlico. Saturday morning, on the arrival of the Carlisle coach in town, two poor women, outside passengers, were frozen to death. The coachman supposed they ' were asleep, and did not attempt to distal', them, tine til he arrived at the Swan with Two nelcs, Lad. lane, where they were found quite stiff. LUCIEN BONAPARTE frequently rides outside she coach, as •a servant, to avoid observation ; but at 'Exeter he was recognized by an invalid soldier, who had served abroad, and when the carriage stopped to change horses, the soldier presented him with a paper, saying in French, that a Lady in this country wished him to share in her smiles, its she had 44 Capital Prizes to bestow in the Grand State Lottery, the 15th Nem Meath ) by a New Plan of Dtaitiog. ~. _
