The tottering Turkifh Empire appears, fince the Peace of Tilfit, to be placed in more precarious cir cumtlances than ever. The arrangements are not known which were made relative to Turkey by the two Emperors at their interview, but the refults loon be manifeft to the world. The fyflem adopted by Sultan Selim, during the Taft years of hia Govern ment, of adhering entirely to France, and rejeCting all other conneetionF, has probably faved the Porte for fome time ; but the dethroning of that Monarch has battened the great catatirophe, and Muftapha is probably the latt Ottoman Sovereign who will reign over the provinces of the Byfantine Empire. The new Government of Conftantinople has delayed to renew its former conne6tions with France, and its wavering policy has induced it, without the know ledge of the French Amball'ador, to enter into fecret negociations with the Englilh Commanders, which, however, have not remained fecret, and therefore can have no confequences.

The Inflexible, of 74 guns, is alfo here, with a convoy from Copenhagen." og WHITBY, OCTOBER 27. " Paired by to the South, a large fleet of Chips (fuppofed to be from Copenhagen).

ANOTHER LET rER-SAME DATE. 44 JuR arrived his Majefly's frigate SUIVIEILLANTIS from Copenhagen, with Lord MULCRAVII 9 I brother, the Hon. Mr. PHIPPS, Brigadier General STEWART, and part of the 23d Regiment (or Royal Welch yutileers), who fo particularly thilingoilhed them. (dyes on the advance piquet and works, before Co penhagen ; it is not neceffary to pats any encomium on this Id and brave corps, only that they have added another (prig to the many laurels with which they are already crowned. The SurtvErtLaorra frigate was ordered to England with difpatches, when the whole of the fleet (wept the NFPTUIIII, which got ago" nod in he R 11,1•) pail Croningburgh, with the ',rind at S E. .6_ As the fleet paired Helfingbursh, whcre the King of Sweden now is, the whole of the men Of war drew up, and fired a royal &lute. From the immenfe fleet of the line, tranfports, and prizes, it was the grandell fight ever beheld in the Baltic ; the fcene was teen at the fame moment by the Swedes at Hellingburgh, and the Danes who had manned their battery at Elfineur. The one beheld a fleet paging that might, in combination with the French, have been a fcourge to Sweden and Eng and ; the other witneffed the departure of their Nes y aid Arfenal, which mull be the work of years to re; lae " The SVIVIILLANTE exchanged ft; ails with the Larose, about 8o leagues from Yarns( uth, with a large convoy bound for London.

" Yefterday feveral of the cutters, ikc. which car ried ont the Volunteers to Copenhagen, arrived in Leith Roads. They left that place in company with four fail of the line of Danifh (hips, and a very large convoy, bound for Sheernefs, and parted with them off the Scaw, fo that their arrival ma] be looked for hourly. " Previous to their leaving Copenhagen, a fleet pound for the Baltic bad arrived from England ; but, ay order of the Britifh Admiral, it was ordered not to proceed till further orders. " The names of the wird' that have arrived are the Amaranthe, Peacock, and Clio, floops of war, and the Henry Dundas mile cutter. When they left Copenhagen on the t4th init. the whole of the Danith navy were manned, and ready for fea. 44 It was currently reported among our troops in Zealand, that that illand would be evacuated by the zoth init. but before leaving it, that the Callle of Cronenburgh, and the Crown batteries, were to be difmantled. " The Amelia, of Dundee, Captain ABBOT, ar• rived at Dundee on Wednefdiy la, the 2 til infant, from St. Peteriburgh. The Captain reports, tha; he left about ten fail of Brit& ships at Cronftadt, and there was then no dread of any immediate aft of hoßility, though there exiled a confderable alarm, and a Rate of fufpence. He arrived at the Sound in fourteen days, and upon the day he arrived there, a letter had come by exprefs, eight days from St. Pe terfburgh, from Mr. SHARPE, the Britifh Conful, to Mr. Pstrwicx, our Conful at Elfinore, informing the latter that he had been under the neceffity of ordering every Britifh (hip inftantly to quit Cronaadt, with or without cargoes. The order was fo peremptory, that tome veils failed, while fcarcely in a Rate to put to lea, having too little banal. A lady, paffenger by the Amelia, taw the letter in Mr. FENWICK'S poflef lion, and gives a fimilar account of the contents." PORTUGAL. On Monday Taft we informed our Readers that a , French Paper of the 16:h contained an article from Bayonne, (Wing the departure of the Royal Family of Portugal for the Brazils. This Teems to have been incorrect. A veffel has arrived at Dover from Bay onne, which place The left on the tzthinftanr, when, as the Captain reports, every thing remained quiet, and there was no appearance of an invalion of Portu gal by the French troops at Bayonne. A mail from Litbon may now be expeCted every hour. La(! night we received tome more Altana Newf. papers, but they limas little intelligence, not being fa late as thole iteeived in the morning. A Gottenburgh Mail alfo arrived laft night, but not of fo late a date as the one that came to hand on Tuefday. The article from the Banks of the Danube, given in another part of onr paper, is copied from a French paper. It is a curious one, and throws tome light on the fecret agreement, which we have more than once infilled had been entered into by the. Courts of St. Peterfburgh and St. Cloud, to make a partition of! Turkey. The prefent Grand Seignior, it is Paid, is to be the laft allowed to reign at the Porte . And the unblufhing reafon affigned for this is, that he has (hewn a difpofition to negotiate with England I. • We know not in this partition of the Ottoman Em pire, whether the treaty is to be tripartite,and Auffria is to come in for its fhire ; or whether the other two Emperors are the tole devifers. We obferve that Auliria is to lore the Intrfertal, a province which renders Saltzburgh of fuch confequence to Vienna. BONAPARTB makes all his L. :roachments by degrees. We have no doubt but that the next Rep will be to cut Au aria off entirely from every approach to Italy. —The refult will be, that France will gain all the immenfe fea frontier which the Emperor knew not how to ufe, with its foreits, its &fin ics, and its means, of hearing to him a formidably r.avy, by which he may in future make all the Eall his own. GENOA, SEPTEMBER 3. We are allured that the Toulon fquadrnn has put to fea. and that it has been ken in our Gulf. MILAN, SEPTEMBER 9 The Toulon Cquadron is at lea, and has been Teen near Nice. VENICE, OCTOBER r. The key of Egypt, Alexandria, is !till in poffelLon of the Englifh, whofe agents with the Mamelukes in Upper Egypt, are exerting all their influence to bring them over to the Englifts intern, and induce them to make a combined attack upon Cairo. All the difpofeble troops at Malta, which were not able,. lutely necciary for the defence of the fortrefs, have failed for Alexandria, which at leaft proves that the Englifts do not really intend to evacuate Egypt, as the laft accounts from London might have led us to believe. The iflands in the Archipelago are in fo bad a Rate of defence, that they mull necefarily become the prey of the power who may &It attempt to conquer them. The SCUP Mends are now entirely occupied with French troops, whole number is daily aug mented, and who will make fuch preparations for their defence as (ball effeltually (acute them againft any attack of the Englifh. Sicily is without troops, but there is little reafon to expea an expedition againn that ifland from the Neapolitan territory, as the French army there he: hitherto only abed on the defenfive ; and, (Mould it undertake offenlive opera tions, tehy will be direrned towards the call ; fince Sicily, as well as Sardinia, in the cafe of a maritime peace, muff fall either to France or the Allies cf France. The piratical Rates of Barbary continue their &venation: undinurbed, but are careful not to irritate France, or the countries under the imme diate proteCtion of France. With the Englifh cow. menders in the Mediterranean they have frequent conflias. COPENHAGEN, OCTOBER tr. The Eng Hilt general, Lord Cathcart, has muttered all the Engli(h troops in the vicinity of the Capital, from which it is concluded, as alfo from the expre . (ions of many of the enemy's Officers, that every thing is ready for their departure ; and kt is fetid their embarkation will take place the beginning of oe;t week. Since the day before yeflerday the Englilk have again blockaded the parage between the Ifland of Zealand and the Viands Moen, Laland, and FaMen, aid no more Chip's paffes will be given. This it is fuppcfed is to prevent the defertion of the Hanove• rians, between whom and the Englilk fo great an enmity prevails, that there have been feveral bloody afrays between them. *thfiftianfand was fummoned by au Englifh fqua. don in the beginning of September. The (ammo; a however was rejefled, and the enemy, on attempting an attack, bravely repulfed.
