STATE PAPER. ANSWER OF THE PRUSSIAN COURT TO THE AU STRIAN OFFER OF MEDIATION. " His Majeßy the King, recognizing the motives which induced his Apo(lolic Majefty to offer his me diation between the mote ditlinguifhed of the provers now at war, in order, by means of his good fervices, to lead to conferences concerning peace, is eager to teilify all the gratitude he feels on this account. The King beholds this meafure of the Court of Vienna wi'h pleafure as it tepees himfelf, confiderins It as the effea of that friendthip of which the Emperor and King teas given him more than one proof, and there fore feels this more Rrongly. The defire to fee the evils terminated, which have preffed upon Europe doting 1. many years, and his natural moderation, would int , oce him w accept without fcruple the offer of his imperial and Royal Slajelly. if he could con v.nce I hnfelf that the bafis which France would content to in a negociation would be Inch as his ho watt allowed him to accept. The way and manner in which Napoleon has confiantly evaded explaining himfelf in this milted is no fortunate omen. Yet, fhvuld his' Imperial a'nd Royal Majeily fucce,ed in inducing France to (late loch a batis and make it known to the King, and should they be not altoge ther holtile to the end which his Majetly has been endeavouring to attain in common with his Allies, his Prußian Majefty will eagerly accept the offer which his Imperial and Royal Apoßaiic Majcily has jult made." COMERENCE BETWEEN THE KING OF SWEDEN AND GENERAL BRUNE. • TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. The following a Trani:laden of the Converfation which pared betweLn Lis Majeky the King of Sweden and General Brune, at Schlatkow, on the 4th of June, as publifhed by eonurand, at Stralfund ; and if you think it will be interefting to your readers, you arc welcome t•• infert it in your Paper.; GUSTAVUS BRUNAIARK, Chaplain to the SwediCh Legation at the Court of St. James's. The Original publication begins thus—. As an ineorruft Article has been inferred in the Hamburgh and Akoua Papers, concerning his Royal Majefty a conference with the French General, Brune, at Schlatkow, on the 4th of June tEny, it Imam now high time to put this converfation in its true light. When the French General came to the King, he began after a paufe of a few moments, by Paying—l prefent mykif here, in con- fequenee of your Majelty's command. The KING—I have myfelf wined to fpeak to you, General, io order to render unneceffary all further explanation on the ar tide added to the eut•riefion of the Armiftice at Schlatkow, as I with that every thing thould be clear and diftin& fo that no mif eauftrudtko can mite. My Governor-Genera: has already, In easfequesee of my order told you in his letter of the r4th of May, that I do not ad: nowledge any other agreements except thufe efla. Milled in the Artniftiee itfcif—and 1 now repeat to you, that that is the only adt I look upon as binding. The O x x.—Does your Majefty permit me to fpeak, or is it your Mikity% pleafure to explain your thoughts yourfelf on the fubjedtl The KING.—No, you may (peak. The GEN —Your Majtfty, 1 can mention an inftance in which I was Illicit - concerned, tor I have concluded a limilar armlftice in Holland with tie Duke of York; and I had thought that the ad ditional article now in cud - Lion ought to have been as Catered as the arrnillice itfelf, when founded on the honour of both the Coin tuand.re in Chief. • The KING—Yes, it is exactly on the fame principle that I ac knowledge only the anuittioe at Sehlatkow. Bonapartekai bade* made nk of a reafon, which I migktolffo urge, when be raid, that he bimfeif commanded his army, and sedated General Monier, in cafe the additional article Mould net be to to, to break off the armiftice. Now fence I have taken the command of my army in perfou, I might have had a (efficient reafon fur putting an end to the arroiltice, as I would not acknowledge the additional article; but I have nor done it. When Geiseral linfue began to fpeak about the ancient alliance hotween Sweden and France, and about a Vale, between the two nations, • s The Kinn anfwered.—Yes, certainly. I will; as muck as you. that this alliance blight be revived; but the French nation Is no !forger the lame, and thefe happy times are paffed;fwhen a cleft. alliance Contributed to the political advantage of the two kingdoms. The prefentitate of affairs prevents it. - The GEN—Your Nlajefty, the French nation is always the fame. It hat acquired much honour and power. France has made great progrefs, the has improved her agrlcuittoe anckheertfourew, and if in othertimes your Majcity had an optfortunity of going thither, it Would, perhaps, be loterefting to Your Majefty tri a fee and to know that country.

It is pc-11141e that he has brought this publication with him. I will let him be called if you with it. (When his Majefty. in tl-e countenance of the General, perceiv ed his difyiletude and uneafinefs at thi;,) he added, " But perhaps this would caufe toa much obfcrvatlon." The GEN.—Yes; bet if your Majelty would fend it to me in a cover at the out-pofts, I would read it inyfctf, and my officers ['zooid alfo fee it.

" We have hift every thing, es• tept our honour :" (Gene- .1 Brune repeated there r:ords with warmth.)

He may gain fortuitos , honour, much celebrity, and many advantage, but he can never enjoy any peace of mind. Wh n the General began to fpeab of the talents of Bonaparte, and NM that there was none of the Bourbon family who was dir tinguilhed for fo many talents, the King anfwercd, ' , There occur favourable orcumftaners, and it needs only to take advantage of them." The General feemed to admit thix. 'fhc KLNO—The death of the Duke of Eng Lien—what an enormity ! The GCN..0.1 was at that time in Conftantinople, and cannot explain it.

The Swedes, on the contrary, had made a fuccefsfut fooie, and dclhoyed one of the French works. No farther intelligence has been received by Go- vernment from Admiral GAT4IIIEII. It was - reported yellerday, that difpatches, dated the t 3th, had reach ed the Admiraltyl but the date of the latefk advices was, as we have flared, the 9th.

'I EI.SINEOR ROADS, AUGUST " Our country, no doubt, will wonder what we arc duihg h ere with this wonderful force : we have 20 fail of the line mocoul iq two lines, within gun shot of Elfineur : within mare an t b, tranf : •orts, with about Lcootio twin on board—Off Copenhi is four fail of the line, a great number of gun brigs, fire Mips. fir: mortar boats, eight frigates, and ten (loops of war, and a number of trio pons with troops on board.

Thus you fee we have completely furroundcd the Wand. The wloie of the Marit•.ea of the Squadron and a number o r Carnet% from each lip, arc held in readinefa for landing in can, gentlion with the troops.

At this moment there ate from so to i 6,030 Danith Troops on the Wand and their Grand Army is at Haiti°, and will not be allowed to pars our Oitiploa." Although we think it our duty to lay before oar Readers the following letter, we have to add, that itt contents are totally unfounded; " Ex. rad of a letter from Bridlington Cbay, dated Smuttily forenoon, Auguft 15.—A v-fl - 4 from the Baltic arrived in out bay early this morning; the left the Sound on Thurfdey fennight s (one day later than the Wilberforce) and repots, that when Le p a ged, th e PITH& Bag was eying upon the Caftkat Ilium', and alfoat Copenhagen " Th: Wilberforce left the Sound op the sth, and the above yard followed her the day after. Admi ral Camittsa's difpatches arc dated alit 9th, being four days fubfecinent, and no Inch swnc had then taken place. Important difpatches may be hourt expeßea from Mr. Jaccsori, who was fent on a particular rnilEon t , the Prince Regent of Denmark. The &arlirg gun brig was, by the. latl accounts from Tonningen, waiting in the Eyder to bring them over. Mr. JAM, sow, on his paffage through Tonningen to Kiel, ad vifed all the Britifh trade, lately arrived in the Eyder, wider convoy of the Sparkler, to leave that river. Fr rate accounts flare, that Admiral MusRAY and G:ncral CRAUFURD arrived at Monte Video early in June, and that an immediate attack was to be made upon, Buenos Ayres. A letter received by a rep t& able Houfe in the City, by tl.e laftlrut Mail, Rates that the, Spaniards had prohibited, on pain of death all intercourfe between the inhabitants of Buenos Ayres and Moate Video, and that the Pries weft bfing their utmoft endeavours to excite animofity an; rancour again( the Engli(b. A letter from Madrid, received by the fame Houfe,howevey, mentions, that it was there reported and believed, that Buenos Ayres had been retaken by the Englifh.
