They write from Augfburgh that General Ls ct.sac had pallid through that city on his way to Balzbourg, and thence to Vienna. It is Paid that he is the bearer of the Preliminaries of Peace. A violent tumult has happened here. The Ma siftracy, doubtlefs for fufficient reafons, having had a workman taken into cuftody, the perfons of his trade yelterday affembled, and having forced from his houfe the thing Ma dente, they con dueted him to the Hotel de Ville, and obliged him to liberate the party detained ; they further required an indemnity in money. At two o'clock this afternoon the workmen again atembled tu multuouily ; the Burghers immediately received orders to take arms, and the foldiers occupied the town-houfe. Thefe meafures had no died on the mutineers; they attempted to force an entry, and even threw (tones at the troops which went out to repel them. The foldiers immediately fired, and feveral of the mob were killed and wounded. INSPRUCK, JAN. 7. The Auftrian head-quarters are now breaking up from this city. We have juft received fome very difagreeable accounts. Gene:al BRUNE, in conjunaion with General MACDONALD, has pene trated to Verona, and heavily cannonaded that city for fome hours. The French have alto ad vanced beyond Alto, the firft port town of the Tyrol, and are already at Roveredo. A French officer who arrived here the day be fore yefterday, has affured us, however, that the Tyrol has nothing to fear from General BIMNE, as it is fufficiently protefted by the arminice con cluded by General MOREAU, which will be punc tually obferved. HAMBURGH, JANUARY at. The account mentioned in the public papers, that the Duke del Patel:Lye was proceeding to Peterf bursh, as a Minifier from Spain, is void of foun dation. He is Rill at Franckfort. Genetal Le- CLIRC, who is now employed in making peace between Aufkria and France, is brother-in-law to the Conful Bo The following are Tome farther particulars re fpeaing the late challenge of Palm to the Poten tates of Europe : A few days before, the young nue of Swaim; left Peterlburgh, the Evaristo' gave a tournament, a diverfion of which he is very fond, ani in which he performed perfonally as combatant, to the great furprife of his Royal Gueß, and to the arnnfement of a numerous and brilliant Court. In the evening, the feftive cup overflowed with ge nerous wine, and a difpatch was received from Bo- P•ItTI, together with feveral caricatures, raid to be publifhed in England, in which the mighty Paul, is reprefented as a lunatic. The EINIPAROR was charmed with the officioufnefs and military fucceffes of his new Gallic friends ; and the con verfation turned on the great projeas formed by the Northern Confederacy to humble the pride of the Englifh, and the invincidk trowdi the Est's aoa had difplayed all daylong in the tournament. His Majefty , fired with the fparit of chivalry, im mediately refolved to infert the famous paragraph of defsenee to the Potentates of Europe, in which be declares himfelf mad at the conclufion. Some perfons think, that Paw. only &anis madnefs like Hamlet, and, with a fine fatire, revenges himfelf on the Sovereigns of Europe for the impudent ca ricature publifbed againft him in England, and fent him by his new Gallic ally. There are ad vices here from Peteriburgh through a refpedable private channel, purporting, that the EMPEROR infills upon the reftotation of the an cient Republic of Venice, to which Faamcis 11. had refufed his content feveral months ago; and by fo doing has forfeited his alliance with Ruffin. Palm, in conjundtion with the Kole; of PILUSSIA, has, fince that, determined to abfolve the Empire from all its allegiance to the Estraloa during the • prefent war and though the Aufirian Monarchy 31 not' immediately deflroyed, yet its preponderat ing influence in Germany may be confidered as completely fuppreffed. By letters from Stockholm and Copenhagen, down to the 13th inßant, the armaments Rill con tinue in the different ports of thofe countries. The weather was fo mild at Copenhagen that part of the fleet, defined for the defence of the Sound, was almoll fitted out and ready to put into the road. Sweden intends to fit out only ten chips of the linelat prefcnt, which will be joined, as early Ni the feafon permits, by twelve Danifh and twenty ' Eve Ruffian fail of the line. No !hips of war are to be Rationed in the Sound, except at Copen hagen, where no flip can enter the Baltic without approaching the batteries within gun-fhot. The works of the fortrefs of Cronberg are now completely finifhed, and that place is laid to be in a atoll excellent Rate of defence. Private letters from Vienna, of the toth inflant, confidently Rate, that the preliminaries of peace between France and Außria are figned, and will probably be publifhed in a few days. Letters from Conflantinople ' of the t3th ult. Rate, that the Englifh fl eet h as not yet arrived there. but that four frigates, with General Asia- CIOMBIE'S Adjutants, had reached Rhodes. A grand attack was to be made upon Egypt, re. conded by the whole Torkifh navy, under the Cap tain Pacha. Central Sir RALPH Assaceossait vas to land at Jaffa, with about 20,000 men, and to march afterwards through Damietta Alexandria, with an European force of near ,00 0 pkg.

P. S. There are letters from Copenhagen which arrived here this moment, Dating that great hcipes are entertained in that capital, of an amieable fet dement of all differences with England. DENMARK. COPENHAGEN, JAN. 17. _ • The inhabitants of the cannon-foundery of Fre derichfwerk have ellabliffied a volunteer corps to defend this important work in cafe of attack. The corps is to aft under authority of the Kis°, and the officers are to be paid out of the Royal Trea fury. The pay of all the officers put together will not be more than ayoo riz-dollars a year. The corps is to be compiled of infantry and cavalry, as well as of land and lea artillery; but is to ferve only in time of war. Of the Danilh men of war in the Mediterranean, no more than three frigates are to remain them, viz. Nayacen, the Triton, and Freya, under the command of Captain CRAB sr. All the reit have been ordered to come home. _ _ The Convention agreed on at Peterfburgh was ratified here yellerday. SWEDEN. ELSINEUR, JANUAR I :I2. A letter from Arendal, in Norway, of the.6th, Rates, the Captain of a Danifh veffel, which ar-' rived here on the 3d, affures us that he had leen a very confiderable Englifh fleet off Schagen. A telegraph will be ere&ed on the tower at Cron. berg, to communicate along the coaft with Gillo lerc on one fide, and Copenhagen on the other. The works at Cronberg are carried on without in. termiffion, in order to place that fortrefs in the belt date of defence. Mim••••••• • STOCKHOLM, JANUAP.Y 9. The Royal equipages have been feat from hence to Grillellhamn to meet his MAi astir, who is foon expeCted to return to this place. It is expeaed that Government will permit the exportation of herrings, of which great numbers have been taken at Gothenburgh. Orders have been received for quantities of them, particularly from England, where an Ad of Parliament allows the importation of them duty free. C•PTInt OF THE SPA/1151i FRIGATES AT ZAICELONA. As far back as the 17th Odober, the Spanifis Ambaffador, the Chevalier de Hu ERT4 delivered a Note to the Swedifts High Chancell or,l Baron EHRIENKSII4, refpeding the violation of t he Swe difh'flag by tome Englifh Tads, in the capture of certain Spanifh chips in the road of Barcelona. In that Note, which demands decifive meafures of fatisfalion, it is Rated—_ _ _ _ The complaint which bas been made refped ing this affair is not intended to rave appearances, or exhibited proforma, and then to be configned to oblivion. In it are involved the common intereas of all the powers in Europe, which, if Sweden were to (hut her eyes to fuch a crying outrage upon all the rights of nations, would confider her as refpon fible for the misfortunes that might afterwards en file from it. Sweden, and the other Northern Powers, have lately experienced an example of the bad faith of the nation, whore fubjeds were guilty of the proceeding at Barcelona ; !ince the nation in queltion, after Intuiting their flag, fent a fqua dron to the entrance of the Baltic to demand fatif fiadion for that very infult which fhe had commit ted ; thus Mewing to the Northern Powers, that tao courfe remained for them but to unite, and bend all their force to compel to return within the bounds of duty, a State that would facrifice the peace and tranquillity of all Europe to its own policy." ' To this Note Baron EH aEN Hllll returned an an fwer, blaming the negligence of the Spaniards in defending their own rights, and permitting vio lence to be done to neutrals in her ports.—[Our Readers will recoiled that we inferted it fume time ago.) Upon this, the Chevalier de Marrs pretented the following reply : so, ttoo. Sir—l have this moment received from my Court an anfwer to the difpatches, in which I com municated the firft fleps I hid taken with his Sys- DIS If Mai airy, when I had the honour to prefent my fir(! Note on the fubjea of the-outrage of which fit Englifh were guilty in the road of Barcelona. " The Lao, my mailer, has obferved with re gret the coldnefs with which the Swedifh Court has recessed his complaint, while it has confined itfelf to feeble aid indecifive meafures, from which it does not even indulge the hope of any advan tage. This view of the matter thews the (mall in terefl with which Sweden is prepared to all in the bufmefs. I. cannot conceal from you, Sir, that this inaiftivity, which is obferved in the applica tions of the Court of Sweden to that of London, might afford room to believe that this negotiation will be connected with other objces of private in tereft which demand temporifing meafures, incom- patible with that energy and seal which his CA THOLIC V RSTY espefted to fee difplajed by his A J ISTV. in regard to an aftir which, as it - involves the honour of his flag, would have afforded him an occafion to prove to Europe the warm part he takes in the interefts of the maritime powers, as well as to teftify the value he puts upon the good underftanding which hitherto has prevail ed between the two Couroi. In purfuance of a new order from my Court, I repeat, and formally in. lift upon, what I demanded in my laii Note of the rich October. I fondly flatter myfelf that his Swanton MAJESTY will adopt far more aelive mea fures than the contents of your Note allowed me to hope. It is not probable that you will expofe Swedifh (hips to all the feverity of the meafures which circumftances require to be exercifed againft fufpeeed veffels, and whole condue might be On ' Um.' as connived at, unlefs the Swedifh Court I receives from England the moll ample reparation refpceing the affair of Barcelona.

Though various private letters have been re ceived in town from the Continent, which (peak of the fingular article in the Peterfburgh Court Gazette of the 3oth alt. no fatisfaiffory account , has as yet been given in regard to the motives which produced its infertion in that official Journal: One private letter from Peterfburgh accounts for it in the following manner : On or about Chriftmas-clay Petit gave a grand entertainment, at which he was in high fpirits, and, among other tallies of mirth, he laid the moR fhort and humane way of deciding the prefent difputes of the different nations in Europe would be, for the Sovereigns to meet, with their Minifters as their 'Squires, and in the true (tile of Knight Er rantry, fight out their quarrels by fingle combat. The Danifh Minifter, who heard this jns d'efprit, but did not comprehend the fpirit in which it was delivered, wrote home to his Court among the other intelligence he could colleft, that Pent had chal lenged all the Sovereigns, &c.; and he made the remark which followed. This letter was inter cepted ; Nut was very indignant, ordered the Danifh Minifter to return to his own Court, and inferted the eztraa of the letter in the St. Peterf burgh Gazette, as a jufiification of this proceed ing. How it happened that the article was pub. lifhed at Hambugh without this explanation, is a queflion which we cannot yet refolve ; but the foregoing ftatement will be found accurate. The St. Peterfburgh Gazette of the ad takes no notice of any particular event; Ruffle, is as tranquil, harmony prevails, and the Monarch Items to be as firmly feated on his throne, as when he was our Ally. A letter dated Berlin, January zB, fags : " Ac• cording to information received here, the Danifh Minifter at St. Peterfburgh, M. de ROSINCRAMTZ, had quitted that capital precipitately, upon the zft of January.
