any to the English there different articles, such as pitthand tar, fresh meat, spirits, and provisions of every kind. They take back colonial produce and E ng lish merchandize, which, deposited at Gotten burgh, are soon after introduced into the interior of the country. The traveller of whom seak knows of a num- 1 her of cargoes of colonial p r od u ce p that Have been sent to Relsinborg and bialmoe. On the 15th December he saw a convoy of 60 wag • gons, loaded with indigo, set out from Gottenburgh. o n t he 19th, .500 carts, laden with coffee and sugar, r oad to Norkoeping. In short , on the s et off on the very day of handep, a second convoy of colo. vial produce English goods was dispatched for the interior. The English cruizers permit all ships destined for Sweden to pass freely. They favour the coasting trade, and give no interruption to the fisheries. Be sides, the English abound at Gottenburgh ; their alarm is dissipated ; they have resumed their ordi. nary business, and even their tone of arrogance and of irony ; and one would be tempted to believe, that at no time did a better understanding subsist between the two Governments. GERMAN PAPERS. HAMBURGII, JAN. 9.—A numerous detachment of Danishsailors arrived here yesterday morning, by the gate of Altona. They are going to Antwerp. They were mustered on the Jungfernstein. Thel French Consul General addressed them in the following speech, which was interpreted in their own language by M. Vareadorff, their Commander : Brave Danish Sailors I—As the advanced guard, you are pro ceeding to rejoin, on board the squadron of his Majesty the Ern peter and King, at Antwerp, your countrymen, who already emulate in bravery and discipline their friends the French. You will, in concert, vindicate the liberty of the seas, and revenge the carrying off your ships and the burning of Copenhagen.—You will tread in the steps of your fathers. In the campaigns of 1778 end 1779, I beheld them worthily supporting the honour of their country, as volunteers on board the French squadron in the Channel." The Danish sailors replied to this discourse by giv ing three cheers. The Consul-General invited the officers to an entertainment, at which the Danish Charge d' Affaires and the French naval officers at Hamburgh were present. The healths of the Empe ror of France and the King of Denmark were drank upon this occasion. PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS.

Since our last we have received Monikers and minor French Papers to the 22d instant. Private letters from the French coast have also been received, and Dutch Papers and Letters to the 21st. We regret to find by the French Papers that the enemy have lately obtained some very important successes in the Peninsula. Tortosa has surrendered after a siege of short duration, but of uncommon vigour. This important post was resolutely defended. Its surrender was occasioned more by the weakness and insufficiency of the works, than by any defect in courage or perseverance on the part of the brave gar rison. Two practicable breaches were effected before they offered to enter into negociation for surrendering the place. The French acknowledge a loss of 400 men on this occasion, and estimate that of the gar rison at 1200. The besieging army, encreased by the corps under the command of Marshal MACDO NALD, proceeded afterwards to invest Tarragona. These papers contain an account of the failure of an expedition against Palamos, a small port to the eastward of Barcelona. Of the 1000 or 1100 British troops that were landed, 800 are represented as hav ing been killed and wounded, and 150 taken priso ners. The object of the attack is not mentioned in the official report ; but it appears from a private let ter, that it was for the purpose of cutting out some paltry craft, which had taken shelter in the harbour of Palamos. Captain James and some other officers i lof the navy were taken prisoners in this affair. The accounts received from Gibraltar of the sur render of the fortress of Marbella tc General SEBAS. TIANI, appear to have been premature. The direct intelligence from that officer is of later date, and it goes no farther than to state, that the siege was ad vancing. A well-concerted attack on General BONNET, in the Asturias, is said to have failed ; but the enemy appear to have derived no great advantage from the victory they claim. The Spaniards withdrew in good order. From the re-appointment of Marshal BESSIERES to a command in the North of Spain, which of course im plies the employment of a considerable force, it is evi dent that the French have been much embarrassed by the desultory attacks id that quarter. The official Report of the operations in Spain con cludes in a very extraordinary manner. Atter some invective against the English, and asserting that the spirit of insurrection is nearly extinct, it says 46 the in habitants loudly call for being united to the Empire.° Is it meant to be understood from this that it is in tended to annex Spain to the French Empire ? It is not unusual for BONAPARTE to announce projects of the greatest importance in this incidental manner. We find in an article purporting to have been writ ten from Hamburgh, some severe animadversions re• specting the facility afforded to British commerce by' the Swedish Government. These complaints will probably soon assume a more official and effectual shape. A 'large body of Danish sailors have arrived at Hamburgh, on their way to Antwerp, to man the French fleet. It is stated from Vienna that the pacific negocia. tions between the Porte and Russia have been re sumed, and that thete is every probability of their terminating favourably. The Dutch papers mention in an article from Vienna, that the late efforts made by the Servians against the Turks, had inspired confidence in their own strength, and that they aimed at the establish ment of their own independence ; and it is added, that their Senate is about to send Deputies to the Continental Powers to solicit the different Sovereigns to guarantee their liberty. An article from Warsaw, dated the 25th ult. states, two merchants, and another person, had been sen tenced to two years imprisonment for dealing in Eng lish merchandise. AMERICA. Mr. PINKNEY has received dispatches from his Go vernment, containing all the rcecent documents re specting the negotiations with the Court at St. Cloud. We understand that these dispatches present no new facts of public importance, and that the Govern ment of the United States was anxiously expecting the determ►pation of this country oa the important subject of the Orders in Council. American Papers from New-York, Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Boston. From the pro ceedings of Congress we learn, that in the House of Representatives Mr. Warms had presented a Peti tien from sundry merchants of New-York, stating that they had ordered goods from England to a large amount ; that the orders were given before they 'had any knowledge of the proposed renewal of the Non-Intercourse ; that the goods were purchased from the manufacturers, and would probably remain in the hands of agents in England, at the risk of the American merchants ; that a large part of the goods was actually paid for, and that a small portion only could arrive before the 2d February. Under these circumstances, therefore, they prayed for relief from the operation of the prohibitory law. The Petition was referred to the Committee of Fo reign Relations. By a letter from New York of the 18th December. we understand that the Secretary w the Tccasutyr - - • • Mr. GALLATIN, has raesemended, that all goods or dared in England film America, and paid for prior , ' to the 2d November, although arriving after the 2d February, should not fall within the purview of the Non-Intercourse Act. We believe that an applica tion has been made, to place under the same circum stances such merchandize as may have been ordered and paid for by American merchants, in London and Liverpool, prior to the receipt of the intelligence of the President's proclamation of the 2d November. In the National Intelligencer, the following propo sitions are stated as the present situation of America, with respect to the two belligerent powers : " 1. That France has revoked all her known edicts that violated our neutral commerce. & That no such revocation has as yet been made by England, who has only made a promise partially and contingently to repeal her edicts. 44 S. That the illegitimate blockades of England must (in the opinion of the President) be revoked, before she can be considered as having repealed her Orders that violate our neutral rights. " 4. That on the other important subjects depend ing between the United States and th a t Government (Great Britain), no progress has been made, from which an early and satisfacrw result can be relied on." The approaching expiration of the Charter of the United States Bank, for which no renewal has been yet provided, has produced a striking reduction in the shares. Four years ago they sold in London at 146, and they can be now obtained at 93. By the advices of Saturday, it appears that much inconvenience is appre hended should the charter be allowed to.expire, as the capital of 10 millions of dollars must in such event be repaid, and three times that amount would be withdrawn from General circulation. . THE ARMY. Transports are collecting at Plymouth for the em barkation of the 11th Regiment of Light Dragoons, now on their march for that place. They are destined for Portugal. The Queen's, 51st, 52d and 85th Light Infantry are embarked at Portsmouth. To-morrow the 36th, commanded by the gallant veteran Brigadier-General BURN; embark. We hear much of the fine style in which that distinguished corps. the 52d Light Infan try went on board ; it is said, that the time of em barkation did not actually exceed a quarter of an hour. Sir Rowse Curtris himself superintended. The Storekeeper-General has left town for Ports mouth. Major PIERPOINT, of the Quarter -Master- General's department, arranges the embarkations at Portsmouth. We hear that the Storekeeper-General goes out to Portugal, to superintend the arrangement of them there. Sir JAMES FELLowES is expected there as head of the Medical department. Besides Briga dier-General BARNES , and FULLER, of the Guards, the veteran General Btams, with that very able officer Baron ALTER, go Out OR Lord WELLINGTON'S staff. It is thought that Lord ROSSLYN'S regiment, the 9th Dragoons, will go with the 2d division of troops for Portugal. The fleets for Portugal will, it is expected, sail on Wednesday. On Saturday it was communicated at the Lord Chamberlain's Office, and to those who have the ma nagement of the Chapel Royal, that it was the inten tion of his Royal Highness the Prince of WALES to take the Sacrament yesterday at the Chapel Royal, St. James's Palace. It was signified that it was his Royal Highness's wish that it should take place in as private a manner as possible ; it was thought, how ever, that some preparation was necessary, and a number of workmen were employed to affix a crimson velvet canopy at the left side of the altar, which was always prepared when their Majesties were in the habit of attending at the Chapel to receive the Sacrament. The curtains of the canopy were richly ornament4i with gold lace and tassels. The Royal closet an& other parts of the Chapel were covered with crimson velvet and gold, and various other preparations were made for the reception ofhis Royal Highness. . About twelve o'clock yesterday, his Royal High. ness, accompanied'by the Eal of MOIRA, Lords Dux- DAS and KEITH, arrived in the Palace-Yard of Saint James's in his carriage. The guard of the day was drawn out with the colours flying, and the drums and fifes playing. The Prince was received with the same honours as his Majesty would have been. His Royal Highness proceeded up the grand staircase, and en. tered the royal closet. His Royal Highness took his seat in the front of the right side, when the service of the day commenced, which was read by the Rev. Mr. PRIDDEN, and the litany by the Rev. Mr. HAvEs. On the Bishop of LONDON (the Dcan of the Chapel) and the Rev. Mr. HOLMES (the Sub-Dean) entering the altar to read the Communion Service, they turned to the Royal Closet, and made their obeisance to the Prince, in a similar manner as if the King had been there. An excellent sermon was preached by the Rev. Mr. MADLEY, from the 4th chapter of the Acts of the Apostles, and 12th verse : " 4 Neither Is there salvation in any other : for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." After which the Anthem of 00D is our Hope and i Strength," composed by the late Dr. GREEN, was most admirably sung by Messrs. SALE, NIELD, HAWES, and BEALE. At the conclusion of the Anthem, Mr. KNYVETT, his MAarzry's Organist; struck up a so lemn voluntary on the organ ; and at a quarter past two o'clock his Royal Highness descended from the Royal closet, followed by the three above Noble Lords up the aisle of the chapel ; his Royal Highness took his seat under the canopy, and the Earl of MOIRA, Lords DUNDAS and KEITH, took their seats on the opposite of the altar. The organ then ceased, and communion service commenced .- It was contrary to the wishes of his ROYAL Mon ?ass that all this shew took place. On his ROYAL Iritomurss leaving the chapel to get into his carriage in the Palace-y ar d, he was received with the same military honours as when he entered. We hare authority to state, that the report of the failure of Messrs. BIDERNIANN and Co. of Paris, men tioned in a Morning Paper, is wholly unfounded, letters having been received from that House as late as any in town.

CAPTURES BY FRENCH PRIVATEERS. The losses of the British merchants, by capture, have, within these few weeks, risen to a most lamen- • table amount. The coast 'swarms with privateers manned by renegadoes 6f all nations, who have of late become more daring, or rather more expert than ever in seizing upon their booty ; and it is not the least deplorable among the misfortunes under which our merchants are groaning from this cause, that France and her dependencies are supplied with colo r nial produce from these captures. Our whole system of policy is thus defeated—a monstrous loss falls upon this country, and the coffers of NAPOLEON are enrich ed at the expense of our ruined merchants and un derwriters. Some remedy nughtinstantly to be applied. 1 —lt is. more than probable that the success of. , these marauders may be attributed to the eapence attend ing the condemnation of paltry privateers at Doctors Commons ; which not mifrequently leaves a balance to be paid by the captors, inste a d of !raving prize- 1 money to divide.—A few days ago, a privateer not worth twenty pounds captured a merchantman of the value of several hundred thousands ! craom TUR ss•terraua.)
