MOTS TR•NSMITTED ■Y MR. DRUMMOND TO THE DANISK MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS, DATED ore. 27, ritoo. The Court of London, informed that Den- Mark is carrying on with aaivity negotiations very boftile to the interefts of the Briti(h Empire, thinks that it cannot better fulfil the duties which fuels a circumftance preferibes, than by addrettng it felf direCtly to the Mini(ler of his Danifh Majefty, to demand from him a frank and fatisfaCtory ex planation. " In all the Courts of Europe they (peak openly of a Confederacy between Denmark and tome other Powers, to oppofe by force the exercife of thofe principles of maritime law on which the naval power of the Britith Empire in a great mea lure rens, and which in all wars have been fol. loured by the Maritime States, and acknowledged by their Tribunals. a His Britannic Majelly, relying with confi dence upon the loyalty of his Danifh Majefty, and 'upon the faith of the engagements recently con. traCied between the two Courts, has not demanded from him any explanation on this head. It was his with to wait for the moment when the Cour t of Denmark thould think it its duty to contradia thole reports, fo injurious to its good faith, and In little compatible with the maintenance of the good underftanging which had been re•eftablithed be tween the two countries. At prefcnt the conduel and public declaration of one of the Powers, which it is pretended have tittered into this Confederacy, do' not permit hi s Majetly to pieferve any longer towards she mit the fame filcocc which he has hitherto obferved. ",The underfiAned thelefore finds hirnfelf bound to demand (men itis Etcellency Count de Bean sroarr, a plain, open, and fatisfadory are on the nature, objet, and extent of the obligations which his Dann Majefty may have contrthed, or the negotiations which he is carrying on with refpet to a matter which fo nearly concerns the dignity of his Britannic Majefty, and the interefts of his people. a His Britannic Majefty, always ready to return all the marks of friendfhip which be may receive on the part of his Dandh Majefty, hopes to find, in the anfwer of the Court of Copenhagen to this requelt, only a new occafion of manifelting thefe difpofitions. " In tranfmitting this Note to M. the Secretary of State, the underfigted avails himfelf, with plea lure, of this opportunity, to affure him of the high confideration with which he has the honour to be his very humble and very obedient fervent, (Signed) " w. DRUMMOND." •To his Excellency the count Bern " itorti, Secretary of Style of bis Daft& Majcfty, ice NOTE IN ANSWER. Copenhagen. Dee. 31, tEco. Thc underfigned Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, having given an account to the King his Matter, of the contents of the Note which Mr. DRUMMOND has done him the honour to tranfmit to him on the 27th infant, is authorifed to return the anfwer which follows : .ts The Court of London muft have received , very incorreet information, .to have been able for a moment to prefinne that Denmark had conceived projeas hoftile againft it, or incompatible with the maintenance of the good underfanding which fubfifts between the two Crowns; and the King is very much obliged to his Britannic Majefty, for having funnifhed him with the opportunity of con tradieting, in the mot pofitive manner, reports as ill founded, as contrary to his mon decided fenti ments. " The negotiation which is carrying on at St. Peteriburgh between Ruffia, Praia, Sweden, and Denmark, has no other objeit than the renewal of the engagenents, which, in the years £730 and 781, were contraded by the fame powers for the fafety of their Navigation, and of which a commu nication was at that time made to all the Courts of Europe. • His Majefty, the Emperor of Raffia, having propofed to the powers of the North to re.eftabliffi there engagements in their original form, Den mark has fo much the lets hefitated to confent to it. as, far from having abandoned the principles profeffed in 1780, the has thought it her duty to maintain them, and claim them upon all occalions, and not allow herfelf to , admit in refpea of them any other modifications than thole which tett& from her treaties with the Belligerent Powers. • Very far from wiling to interrupt thofe Powers in the exercife of rights which the war gives them, Denmark introduces into the negotia. tion with her allies, none but views abfolutely de fenfive, pacific, and incapable of giving offence or provocation to any one. The engagements the will make will be founded upon the ftrifteff fulfil ment of the duties of neutrality, and of the obliga tions which her treaties impore upon her; and if the willies to flicker her innocent navigation from the manila abufes and violence, which the mari• time war produces but too eafily, (he thinks file pays rerpeet to the belligerent Powers by ruppofing, that, far from wi(hing to authorife or tolerate thole aborts, they would, on their fide, adopt meafures heft calculated to prevent or reprefs them. 46 Denmark has not made a my(hry to any one of the object of her negotiation, upon the nature of which Tome furpicien has! been infufed into the Court of London ; but the has not thought that the departed from the ufual firms, in 'slitting to wait the definitive I-critic of it, in order to communi cate an official account of it to the Powers at war, The underfigned, not knowing that any of the Powers engaged in this negotiation has made a declaration, or adopted meafures relative to its objet, at which Great Britain might take offence or umbrage, cannot without ulterior explanation reply to this paint of Mr. Drummond's note. “ Much lefs does he conceive in what refpcft the engagement taken by the previous convention of the aoth of Auguft haft, can be banfidered as contrary to thofe which Denmark is about to enter into with the neutral and united Powers of the North ; and in all cafes in which he (hall find him felf called upon to combat or remove the doubts that (hall have been conceived with refpeta to the good faith of the King, he (hall confider hit talc to be very eafy. as long as this good faith (hall be introduced into the reproaches or the fufpicions ad vanced againft his Majefty. He flatters himfell that the Englifh Government, after having re ceived the required explanations, will have th franknefs to allow that the provifional and MP mentor) , abandonment, not of a principle, the queftion with refped to which retrained undecided, but of a mature, whole right has never been, not ever can be contefted, cannot be found at all ii oppofition to the general and permanent principle., relative to which the Powers of the North a. opts the point of eftablithing a cooperation, which to far from being ealcutite.l to eompronsife their neutrality, is deflined oniftto flrengthen it. " The underfigned would fain believe that thefe explanations will appear fatisfadory to the Court of London ; mid that the latter will do juilice to the intentions and Entiments of the Kir.g, and particularly to his Majcity's invariable d..!ire to maintain and cement, by all the me.ins iu his power, the friendatip and good utlderilanding which fubfill between Denmark and Great Britain. —He has the honour to offer to Mr. Dauxmotsci the affurancc of his moff dillinguifhed confider ation.

The money was put on board a gun-boat, to be carried up the Elbe. A Chapter of the Mai Illuflrious Order of St. Patrick was on Thud - day held at Dublin-Caftle, when HENRY Earl CON YNG HASS was elected a Knight of that Muff Illuftrious Order, in the 1 room of the late MarqUis of Wavetroan, and ill. vefted with the Badge of the Order accordingly. Glo. F. HILL, the fon.in.la* of Commitoner &Remit:), is returned for the county of London derry, after an eafy conteft. The late M. LAVATER the celebrated Phyfiog nomift, was an humble country-clergyman of good education, a warm fancy, and a natural acutenefs of difcernment. His peripkui:y of in. telled was afrociated with the delicacies of fenfibi. lity and imagination, not a little a-kin to thole of J. ?; ROUSSEAU. efterday being the Birthday of the King of Denuatic, the Danifh veffels in the river hoifted their colours in honour of the occafion. It was this circumflance which gave birth to the report that the embargo on Danifh veffels had been taken off; and which report for a fhort time had an influence upon the funds. An order was received at the Cullotn-houre yefterday, permitting fuch property as could be proved to be Britifh, to be re-landed from the Llanifh and Swedifh veffels detained under the em bargo. The military force now under General Sir RALPH ABERCROMBIE is faid to be as follows: One Troop of the Royal Node, and three Companies of the Royal Foot Artillery; A iletachotent of Artificers, under the command of a Bri gade of Officers from the Corps of Royal Engine ss ; Two Regiments of Light Cavalry; Two Battalions of the Guards; A Regiment of the Rifled Barrel Corps; And about ten other Regiments of Infunry, forming an ef feelive body of tsonoo Men. In confequence of information upon oath being tranfmitted to Lord BALCARRAS, Rating, that a Spandh armament was ready to fail from La Vera Cruz, to attack our fettlements in Honduras, Sir R. BASSET jailed the following General Orders, dated September to, 11300. " The General congratulates the forces under ►ie command with the chance of a fpeedy vine from the Spaniards, and if. lures them of the high fenfe he entertains of their gallantry, from the Cervices a great part of theta have already rendered to his Majefly in St. Domingo; whole good condud and example malt adt moil forcibly on the young ladle?, here; and retains not a doubt, &add the enemy have the temerity. to come, but t hey will add another glorious day to the record of the 8ay.... The Officers conuoanding the out-polls will immediately put them in the belt pofTtble Rate of defence, and life the greateft vigilance to prevent furprife., fending conßant rounds and pa troles to vilit the fentincis at night. They are not, on any pretence whatfoever, to give up their poll, as on any knou t attack, the General will in perfon fupport them with his utmolt force. Thefe orders will be read, and fully explained to the forces, at three or four different times ; and any thing that may be wanting for the , defence of the poßs to be immediately re. ported.

We underfland by the ha letters from Madras, that a confiderable trade has been opened with the Tonquinefe. The commodities to be procured from Tonquin, cona of gold, muds, filks, cali coes, drugs of various forts, woods for dyeing, lacquered wares, earthen wares, lilt, annifecd, and wormfecd. The lacquered ware is laid to be equal to that manufa6ured at Japan, which is ac counted the bell in the world. The King of Ton quin is reported to be very favourably difpoled to the. Engli fh. Accounts received from Madras, Rate, that the Expedition which has been for fome time prepar ing at Batavia, has been fuddenly abandoned in confequence of the interference of the King of Bantam. The Javanefe are reported to be ineenfed againft the Dutch, as they cannot find a vend for the produce of the country through their medium. The Topaffes have joined the Malayans, and a large force has been railed in Java by the Kings of Bantam and Mataram, the objeft of which was not known, though it has excited univerfal alarm at Batavia. _ There appears to be fomewhat extraordinary and oat of cbaraarr in the Dublin meeting, which has pledged itfelf to the diftle iof potion."

The Annabelle, OLIVER, from St. Kitt's to London, is on fhore near Brett, after being taken by the French. We are concerned to Rate, that the hopes which have been entertained of the fafety of the Ot trus, appear to have but little foundation. She fell Bombay on the pit of Oftober, 1799, on a cruize in the Gulph of Petite ; the was feen on the 4th of November, and on the sth, the moR tremendous hurricane took place that had been known in In dia for upwards of feventeen years. fence which time fhe has not been heard of. Friday night, about twelve o' clock, a fire broke out in a wright's ihop in King-Brat, Glafgow. The houre was materially damaged, and a confi derable quantity of wood dellroyed. The alarm given by the police watchmen, the immediate ar• rival of the fire engines, together with the salve exertions of the fire-men ' and a number of journey. men bakers, prevented the tenement from being confurned. An unlucky circumftance lately occurred to in terrupt the mirth of a Ball, given by the Swedifu Minifter, st Berlin. The young Count Ora an Officer in the- Regiment of Mollendorff, and the iffue of a Preteßant Family, which had be come Refugees after the Edit& of Nantes, dropped down dead in the middle of the dance. This event had a confiderable effe!t on the other dancers. On opening him, the furgeon dircovered that his death was occafioned by his having 'tied his neckcloth too tight, which produced the apopleetic tit in which he was carried off. As a Gentlemanne ar Mallow, in the County of Cork, was leaning over the palif; des adjoining Ins houfe, and his cattle were driving in to the place where they were itfually kept, a favourite bull happened to Rrike him in the loft part of his hand, near the thumb, with his horn, which gave him fume little pain, but not perceiving any inconvenience from it, he went to a fair the next day, when he felt it painful, and applied to a phyfician, who fiw that there was a mortification. and amputated I the thumb ; but the mortification communicated to his arm,.and appeared likewife in his throat, in confequence of which death valued in the condi of fix or (even days after the accident. A few nights fine, a Watchmaker's holif at Gravefend was broke open; the thief entered at the cellar window. It appeared that he had failed in endeavouaing to open the door which led to the (bop; and the family being alarmed, the watchmen affembled, who, on tearching the pre miles, found that the offender had left behind him, one good flyer watch, not however belonging, to the ihopkeeper, ist his *WM ; it having been ditco vcred hanging by the chain on a nail in the cellar window. flippofed to have been drawn from the fob 0* the thief in making his batty retereat.
