On the 130 indant, at the end of the armillice, the enemy attacked at two o'clock in the afterno n, fewral points of the frontiers at the fame time, but m u te his rrincipal attack with a cordiderable force near Damgarton ; Come of our advanced polls tell back, without being very vig-routly finrfned : that rart of the advanced potts, which via- commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Von Storkenffrom, futlained the molt fevere attack, and made all polhble refinance -in the evening of the 13th inllant the enemy had not yet paired the frontiers. The fame evening hi s Majetly removed his head quarters to Great M itfch kow, and infpeeled alfo the left wing, which was polled near Velgalt. The 14th intl. in the morning, both divifions of our army were attacked with a very fuperior force, and ordered to make a retrograde m •vement, which th e y did with ttM greaten order, and keetting up an incef cant fire ; the right divifinn t ink up a pnliiion nn the height near Pult, and the left orcti:)ied the pals of Seentold, between the lakes of B , rgwald and Krirm• menhagen. As loon as the tatter pafs was occupied, the enemy advanced to attack it, hut was repulird by the well directed fi e of our artille:v and chatTeurs.

Notwithflanding this propnfal, and while the above Swedi(h of cerremained in the enemy 'she.td quarters, the different divilions were attacked with the utmost violence, and a veil fuperinrity in number, and compelled to fall back, which they did with the greateff order, and the troops entered time lo f t ie r', at 9 o'clock in the evening, with a trifling I 'ls, confider ing the enemy's ffrength, and the feverity of the at tack ; but all accounts Rate, that the enemy's lots was very confiderable. We have bit no prifoners, but taken five from the enemy. The 15th, at nine o'clock in the morning, intelli gence was received of the enemy's having attacked, with a confiderable force, and repulied the molt ad vanced chain of the chalfeors near the entrenchments of Franken. Baron Von Platen, Adjutant General, immediately "advanced with a reinforcement, repolfed the enemy's eh a... a...cur, under a Violent motket and cannon fire, which the enemy kept up from the heights of Vogdehagen, fupported by a coluMn of light infantry. At twelve o'cl-ck the aaion ceefed, and all the piquets remained in their former p ifition. On our fide, fix chaffeurs, and Lieutenant Aluengitis, of Skaraborg's chaffeur-, were vitunded;The enemy's lcfs cannot be afcertained. Yefterday, at ten o'clnck in the morning,. the enemy Role near the front of the piquets near Fran kin, attacked them with great violence, and com pelled them, according to Lieutenant Colonel KO < nig's report, to fall back. On the arrival of Colonel Von Vegefac, the enemy was attacked by our troops: the refult was, that our polls occupied the fame poll tions at half pall two o'clock in the morning as be fore, without an inch of territory having been gained on either fide. At one o'clock in the morning, the enemy attacked the left flank of our chain of ad vanced polls, and forced our troops to fall back. The enemy advanced againn our entrenchments, but no further : fome cannon (hot were fired from our entrenchments to drive him back, but as this attempt proved fruitlefs, he was attacked by the Nerike and Wermeland Chaffeurs, fupported by a divition of gun boats, repulfed and purfned through Vorydehagen and Anderfboft, which places are oc cupied by our troops.

The details relate to the renewal < flusflilitie. between France and Sweden, hut do not come down later than the accounts by the !all Denmark mail. We have alfu received Pretsch and Dutch papers, the former to the zsth, the latter to the 2nth It appears from the 87 h bulletin, that the Porte is included in the Treaty of Peace between France and Ruffia. In other w.brds, thefe powers have taken upon themfelves to decide the fate of that Empire. The whole of the plan may not he immediately de-1 velop:el, but the principle is laid down, and we fhall perceive it gradually ailed upon. France and Ruffia may content themfelves at prefent with trifling- an nexations, and the Giand Signior may be allowed to tefide at the Seraglio a few months longer, but the fubvcrfion of the Turkifh power in Europe is inevitable.—The principal point of difficulty in the new arrangements will relive to the occupation of Corflantinople—or, in other words, who fhall com mand the Dardanelles. • If we may credit fome accounts from the Conti. tinent, the Turkilh provinces of Wallachia and Mol. davia, with the Ruffian provinces of Braclaw, Kiow, Podolia, and other parts of Poland, are to be erefted into a kingdom for the Grand Duke Courravrint. A Haerlem paper, under the head of intelligence from Paris, (hies, that an eminent French General and Sovereign Prince, is intended to be King of Greece. A few months will probably develope plans, of which the moll fertile imagination can at prefent form no idea. judging from the wonderful events that have taken place within there few years, there feems to be every probability that, at a period not very remote, hat dly a veßiAe will remain of the fyi. tem that was gradually eflablithed in Lurnpe after the fubver lion of the Roman empire at the end of the fifth century ; and which, with a few ti Ming changes, had fubfiticd for above twelve centuries, when the French Revolution brought on that convulfit,n which has hurled fn many monarchs from their thrones. The 87th Bulletin, after (aing the ratifications of the Treaties with Ruffin and Pr uflia, and exaggem ing beyond all previous calculations, the amount of the lots of the former in the battle of Friedland, c,ln temptuoufly alludes to the Expeditions ptepaling in this country, and to what it calls the new frenzy of the KING of SWEDFN. Nothing left, it is faid, than the whole of our force, " foldiers, volunteers, fenci hies, &c. would have nixie a dive: lion of any in ter eli." An article from Vienna foggefts the probability of a marriage between the Vmperor FRANCIS and the Pi incefs of SA xo Nv. This would certainly be a mull dcfrrable conneetion for the Houle of Au(lria, and for that very reafon will probably be oppofed by France. NAPOLEON is too well acquainted with the ♦alue and importance of Saxony, to allow the ft.c eeffion to it to go out of his own family. He is Rated to have pat(' fame time at Drefden, and that important interefts were fettled there. It is probable that the union of his brother Jkaosts with the heirefa of the Saxon dominions was one of there. The r tth regir ent of Light Dragoons have ar rived in Dublin from Liverpool, In replace the I8• it Light Dragoons, lately embarked from that city; and have taken up their quarters in Sh:anurne-houre barracks, St. Stephen's green. THE EXPEDITION. In the . STAL of Ssturday, we announced the fail• kg of Lord Loncow's divillan of the Expedition ; from the Downs. It is fitted, to cpnfift of about t 15000 men. The following letters relate to different; points of Embarkation for the fame Expedition : " LEITH, JULY 31. Wednefday the LEDA frigate, of 3% wins, Captain Hostv maw, arrived in Lcith R. ads,fr , ,m YAIM .uth. The Captain catne afhore, applied to the Admiral for Pilots, with whom he failed immediately withuut coming to an anchor." " HULL AUGUST r.' " On Wednefday the following tranfports arrived here from the Downs, viz r—Roberts,Frull ; Agent's fhip ; William, Knowles ; Rolina, Johnfon Morton ; Scipio, Rand ; and Indefatigable, Elder. Several others are Paid to be in the Humber ; they are to wait the arrival of the 7th and Bth Regiment of Font, now on their match from Ireland, for ern• barkation at this port, and daily ezpeaed. " Captain Ekinc, of his Majelly's (hip Defence: ar rived in the Humber yellerday, with orders, from Admiral Ellington, to apply to the Mayor of this t , ..vn to atliit in procuring a number of Cattegate or Baltic Pilots. The Mayor inllantly fent the letter to the Wardens of the Trioity Houle, who have the appointment of films at this port. ,s Th e expedition from Yarmouth being ordered to call off the Eliinaber for the German Legion, the wind having been tavourahle, in all probability they will j•-in to.nr.rrow. 41 The number of flit-bottomed boats and bomb veffels that accompany the expedition is very great. The number of find bags, an article tied for throw ing up a temporary defence, upon a fudden defcent, is unexampled. Camp equip le and intrenching, tools were in the fame proportion." YARMOUTH, AUGUST r. " Friday failed the MARS, 74, to join the grand North Sea fleet. Yefterday arrived the Lirrrx floop war, INDIGNANT gun brig, and SYL•IA cutter, with difpatches for the failing of the Second Expedition. 4 , This day failed Admiral RussELL, in the MA JESTIC, 74 guns ; Admiral ESSINGTON, in the MI NOTAUR 74 guns, RESOLUTION 74, VALIANT 74, and AGAMEMNON h 4: LYNX hoop of war, .S TARLING and SAFEGUARD gun brigs, and SYLVIA cutter."

Captain Kit.wicx, commanding his Majefty's fri gate Howe, has arrived at Sheernefs, from the River Plate. He brought with him the prize hip Diana, built at Bono'', in America, which had been fold to a Spanith merchant, a (port time prior to the capture of Monte Video by the &halt, and was intended as a privateer againft the Englifh. The Diana is an uncommon fine velfel, fails extremely w e ll, and is in excellent condition. She brings home to the Prize Agents, hides, copper, tallow, Peruvian bark, fins, horns, oftrich feathers, Vigonia wool, ebony, Spa. nifh wool, gnats' &ins, deer skins, &c. &c. to be fold for the benefit of the captors. The value of this • fhip amounts to upwards of 40,0001. The Spiak, alfo a ci.devant American fhip, which had been fold to the Spaniards about twelve months ago, and prize to the gallant Admiral STIRLING, and the Britifh forces at Monte Video, parted company from the Howe a fhort time ago; fhe may be daily ex peeled, being under charge cf an Agent of Tranf ports, and Lieutenant of the Navy. yhe Speak is a New York fhip, about Soo tons, extremely well four,d, and almott new. Her cargo is configned alio to the Navy and Army Prize Agents for Monte Video, and is valued at 30,0001. Captain KILWICK O who diftinguifhed himfeif by his adivity, courage, and zeal, in the operations again% Monte Videl, left Sir Samuit. Aucussurv, and the troops, nufily occupied in preparations for the attack at' Buenos Ayres. There was no fate for Britifh cargoes, and no cargoes in return fcr the (mall quantities foil The troops were in the highefl poffible order and difcipline, and impatient to receive a fufficient reinforcement to proceed againfl Buenos Ayres. Brigadier• General Luntutir was detached, and commands at St. Lucia ; Colonel Pecs at Colooia del S tcratnento.
