NEA MAyES72"3 DRAIVINO .12661. • . , The Drawing Room announced Co be held yeller. day, by hei Msysrry, at St. James's Palies; excited more public attention than any that 'has been held for a number of years pail, owing to a general rumour that the Princefs of WaLas would be piefent, after an abfence from Court for about two years. The untavourablenefs of the weather did not pre vent the public at large, as well as thole in high life, who attend Court, from gratifying their curiofity.-- The different avenues leading . to the palace were crowded with fpeitators, particularly near the pri vate entrance for the Royal Family, what is gene rally called the Garden Gate in the Park.

They afterwards retired to their private apartments, and dre ff ed for the Drawing Room. At two o'clo c k they proceeded with their ufual attendants and forms to the Grand Council Chamber, to hold the Drawing Room, which commenced accordingly.' The Duke of CUMBISLAND, who was in attendance in his Court drefs, in a private apartment, near the garden gate, gave direetions to be informed as loon as the Princefs of WALI s's carriage was approaching, which was accordingly done, and his Royal High. nets was at the door when the Princefs's carriage flopped; as loon as it halted, the populace gave three cheers, at which the appeared much &grated. Her Royal Highnefs appeared in good health, and was in mourning for her Royal Father. Her drefs was black farfnet, with draperies of black crape, richly embroidered with marri yak, with an elegant pearl fef toon on each fide, with gold foil and pearl trimming intermixed ; head.drefs, pearl, and a fuperb plume Of ofirich feathers. The Marchionefs of TOWNSH END attended her Royal Highnefs. The Duke of CUM• hfItLAND condueled her through the Palace to the Grand Council Chamber, where her "MAJEsry,,was holding the Dra..:ing Room, and prefented her to the (tits). ; after converting for a few 'ninnies. her Royal Highnefs paired on to the Princeffes, the Prin. tens So.rnis of Gloucefler, the Dukes ofCA 2411111DG a and GLOUCFSTER ; and, after t o m e congratulations, her Royal Highnefs received the complinients of the principal part of the Nobility and Gentry prefent.

FOREIGN SEVENTY-NAST BULLETIN OP 1111 GRAND ARMY. a Illiateilftcto, April sy. The viliort of Eylan having ft-nitrated all the plins which the -enemy had formed igaitifl the Lower Vittula, h as ena bl e d us to furround Dantzic, commence the liege of that fortrefs. But if was necelfary to draw the battering artillery from the for treffes of Silefia and along the Oder, fo that it had to come upwards of rod leagues thrpugh a cotintry in which there are no loads. This 4ifficuttY is now got over, and a part of that artillery is already ar• rived. One hundred pieces of cannon are nOw• on their way from Stettin, Cußrin, Glogau, and Brea' lau, and in a few days we Bull be provided with every thing necellary. " The Prnflian General .Kalkreuth has the cow. mand at Dantzic. The garrifon confilts of t4..00ts Putt:flans, and 6000 Ruffians. The inundations and marfhes, feveral lines of fortifications, and the fort , .of'Weixelmunde, have rendered it difficult to fur round the fortrefs. " The annexed report of the liege of Dantzic will thew what progrefs had been made to, the r7th intl. Our works already extend to wickin eighty .rods of the fortrefs ; we have even attacked the catared ava feveral times,and have ctamaged . the Wades thereot " Mat that Lefebvre *difpfays all the aftivity of youth. He is very fucCefsfully ' alined by General . Savary t but the latter is now !Ong ill of a bilious fever, at the Abbey of Oliva, not far from the town. His illnefs was of fo ferious a nature, that his life was in danger for feveral days. General Lefebvre has airs found able affillants in the General of Bri gade Schramm, in the General of Artillery Lari- . boiffiere, and in the Gener a l o f E n gi neers Kit gener . The General of Engineers ChafTeloup is alto arrived near Dantzic. " The Saxon, the Pulifh, and the Baden troops, Brice the Hereditary Prince of Baden is at their bead, are vying with each other in bravery. " The enemy has not tried any other method of coming to the affiflance of Dantzic, than by fending a few battalions and fume provifions to the place by the fea. 66 In Silefia, Prince Jerome continues the liege of Neiffe vigorougy. " Since the Prince of Pletz has declined to all, Baron Aide de Camp to the King of Prafia, is arrived at Glatz, by way of Vienna, with the title of Governor General of Silefia. He is accom panied by the Enghill Commiffary, who arafl keep an eye upon the manner in which the eighty thoufand pounds Reding are laid nut, which were given by England to the King of Pruffia. " On the s3th inliant that Pruffian Officer advan ced from Glatz with a corps of 4.00 ts men,- and at tacked General Lefebvre (who commands the corps of obfervation which covers the liege of Neilie). at Frankenflein. This operation has been ineffeetual. Baron Kleifk was repulfed with vigour. " On the 14./h, Prince Jerome fixed his head. quarters at Munflerberg. 66 General Loifon has taken upon him the com mand at the liege of Colberg. The means for pro kerning the fame are colleOing. They have been fubjesl to fome delay, becaufe it was nectffAry not to hinder the affembling of the train of artillery de (lined for the liege of Dantzic. Marihal Monier, who has the direelion of the liege of Colberg, had g , ine to that fortrefs, leaving General Grandjean in Pomerania with a corps of obfervation, after he had given him orders to take poll on the Banks of the Peene _ _ The garrifon of Stralfund having, in the mean time, received a reinforcement of levant regiments by fea, and being informed of the movement of General Monier, marched out in a numerous body. General Crandjean, in conformity to his inftruetions, croffed the Peene, and took poll at Anclam. The numerous flotilla of the Swedes afforded them (Ippon. tnnity to land at different places, and to furprize a Dutch poll of 3o men, and an Italian poft of 37 men. On being informed of there movements, Mar ital Mortier, on the 13th, proceeded to Stettin, and having collated his farces, he maneuvered to en tice the Swedes, whore force did not amout to 12,000 men, to advance. " For there two months paft, the grand army has been quiet in its cantonments. This time has been employed in recruiting the cavalry, and providing them with hot les, repairing the arms, enahlififing large magazines of bircuit and brandy, and furnifh- ing the foldiers with (hoes. Independent of one pair in wear, each man hal two more pair in his knapfack. Silefia and the ifland ollslogat have furnifhed a number of good horfes to the cutraffiers, to the dra goons, anal to the light cavalry. " In the beginning of May, an army of obferva tion, confining of 50,000 French and Spani(h troops, will be affembled on the Elbe. Whilft Ruffia has affembled in Poland nearly the whole of her troops, there is only a part of the French military force in that country. This, however, is a confequence of the great difference which exifts between the effential ftrength of the two countries. The 500,000 Ruffians, which the writers of newfpapers made to march to the right and again to the left, only exit in their papers and in the imagination of fome readers, who are the eater milled, by being !hewn the immenfe ex tent of the Ruffian territory, without the leaft men tion of its extenfive defarts and uncultivated dinriEts. " It is faid, that the Guards of the Emperor of Ruffia have reached the army. Thty will fees on the firft meeting, whether the Imperial Guard is annihi lated, as the enemy's Generals have allured. That Guard is now more numerous than ever, and almoft double the number it was at Aufterlitz. _ _ Exclufive of the bridge thrown acrofs the Na rew; -another is forming on piles between Warfaw and Pfaga ; the work is in a very forward Hate.— The bridges on piles are fironger and more fervice able than thofe of boats. Although it is very labo- rious to confiTufl foch bridges acrofs a river 4.00 rods in breadth, it is rendered eafy through the !kill and afiivity bf the officers, under whole diredien it is per formed; and from the abundance of timber. The Prince of Benevento is Rill at Warfaw, ne• gociating with the Ambaffadars of the Porte and the Emperot of Perris. Independent of the (*twice:, which he tenders to the Emperor as a blinifter,fome important operations are frequently entrulied to him relative - to the wants of the army.

SEVENTT-SECciND BuLtATIN OF THE OLAND/IRM* • , 0 flatienetria, April se. " The operations of Mailhal Métier have had the cleared effea. The Swedes were fo inerinciderate as to eras the river Peene, t o advance . upon Ancient and Demmin, and to move towards Pelkivaik. On the 26th, befo re b rea k o f day, Maraud Monier , I in bled his troops, advanced front Paffewalic on the road to Ancient, overthrew the ppits . of Belling • and Ferdinancithoff, took 400 [intoner: and two pieces of cannon, entered Anclam at the fame time with the e nemy, and Made hinifelf mailer of the bridge on the Peene. •• . 44 The column of the Swedifh G enera l Cardek was cut off. It remained at Uckermunde when we wern already at Anclam. The Swedifh Genoa! in Chief Armfeldr has been wounded by a grape flot. All - the enemy's magaiines are taken. " The column of General Cordell, which has been cut off, was attacked on the 27th, by the General .of Brigade Veau, near Uckermunde, when the enemy loft three piedes of cannon, and 500 men, which were taken. The reit efcaped by getting on board the gun boats in the Haff. Two snore pieces of cats non, and too men, were taken near Demmin. " Baron Von E llen,l who commands the Swectifti army during the abfence of General Asnifelcit, pro. pored alt Amiftiei to General Mortier, informing him that the Ring had granted him a fpecial power to conclude the fame. A peace, or even an armtltice, ' granted to Sweden, would accomplifh the aloft fari guine willies of the Emperor, who his always been very reluctant to carry on a war agaipll a generous and brave nation; which, upon local and political grounds, is the friend of France. Moil Swedifh blood flow, either to protect or to fobvert the Ottoraan empire ? Is it to flow for maintaining the balance or for fupporting the flavery of the feat ? What has Swe den to fear from France ? Nothing. What has (ht to fear from Ruffle ? Everr thing. Thefe reafons are too evident, not to prompt an enlightened Cabi net, and 7 nation which pofrefles cleernefs of mind, and independence of opinion, to put a fpeedy flop tb the war. Immediately after the battle of Jena, the Emperor made known his d e ll re to re ft ore the ancient relations between Sweden and France. There firft overtures were made to the Swedifh Miniller at Hamburgh, but rejected. The Emperor coi.flantly direded his Generals to treat the Swedes as friends, with whom we are at variance, and with whom we (hall loon be reconciled, from the nature of things. Behold the true intereft of both nations. 44 If they did us any harm, they would regret it : and we, on our part,fhould win) to repair the wrong we may have done them. The intereft of the State will at left rife fuperior to all differences and petty quarrels." There were the Emper , r's own words in his orders. Ani mated by fuel fentiments, the Emperor ordered the military operations for the liege of Stralfund to be difcontinued, and the mortars and Cannon which were fent from Stettin for that purpofe to be fent back. He wrote to General Mortier in the following words : " I already regret what has beep done. I am lorry that the fine tuburb of Stralfund is burnt. Is it our bufinefs to hurt Sweden ? This is a mere dream. It is our bufinefs to prated, not tc do her any injury. In the latter, let us be as Moderale as pof fible. Propofe to the Governor of Stralfund an ar. miftice, or a ceffation of hoflilitim, in order to eafe the burden, and leffen the calamities of a war, which I confider as wicked, becaufe it is impolitic." On the Bth the armiftite was concluded between Marlhil Mortier and garon Von Effen. Annexed is a Copy of the Articles.—[Here the Articles follow.] " The liege of Dantzick is continued without in terruption. Annexed is a Report of the Military Operations at that place. [Thu Report iponeitted in the Dutch Gazette, being ofirnportance only to milit ary men .] 4 ' On the 16th of A pril, at eight in the evening, a detachment of 2000 men from the garrifon of Glatz advanced with fix pieces of cannon again(} the right wing of the poll of Frankenfiein. On the following . day, the 17th, at break of day, another column, of 800 men, marched from Silberberrt. Thefe troops after their juntlion advanced upon Frankenfiein, and • commenced an attack, at five in the morning, with an intention to attack General Lefebvre, who was polled there with his corps of obfervation. Prince Jerome let off for Munfterburgh when the firft gun was fired, and arrived at Frankenflein at t:n in the morning. The enemy was completely difperfed, and purfued to the covered way of Glatz. Six l'.undted of them were taken, together with three piece: of cannon. One major and eight officers are among the prifoner. : three hundred men were left dead on the field of battle ; four hundred men, that had efca ped in the woods, were attacked and taken at IL in the fbrenonn. Colonel Becker., commanding MT fiith Bavarian Regiment of the line, and Colonel Scharfenftein, of the Wurtemburgh troops, have done wonders. The former would not quit the field of battle, although he was wounded in the (boulder: he (hewed hirnfeif every where at the head of his bat talion, and every where he performed wonders. The Emperor has granted to each of thefe officers the Eagle of the Legion of Honour. Captain Brockfeld, who provilionally commands theWurtemburgHorfe Chaffeurs, has likewife diflinguithed himfelf and it was him that took the feveral pieces of cannon. " The liege of Nellie is going on profperoufly... One half of the town is already burnt, and the trenches are approaching very near the fortrefs." PULTUSK, APRIL 7.
