Difpatches were laft night received from Admiral CORNWALLIS, announcing, as is faid, the junaion of Admiral STIRLING'S fquadron with the blockading fleet off Cadiz. This addition makes our fleet in that quarter amount to about 30 'hips of the line. Several communications, yet unpublifhed, have lately paired between BONAPARTE and the Court. of VIENNA. The Corficeas thumps& infifted, that the Empsamt of Ge'merry Would difarm uncon ditionally. The EMPEROR firmly refufcd. Boss. PARTE, irritated to frenzy, threatened that he would make FRANCIS the Sitcoms the la, EMPEROR of GERMANY ; that he would not leave him an inch of his hereditary dominions ; that he would reduce EVERY MEMBER of the IMPERIAL House of Aus- RIA to the very humblcft condition of private life. The EMPEROR replied in a language of lofty emir tefy and calm contempt. He fignified his con fidence in his Troops, in his refources, and in the general loyalty of his people. He ezpreffed his con. vktion, that the caufe for which he took up arms was the caufe of Gon, of Social Order, of Liberty, of Civilization, of all that was dear to Mankind I He faid, in effect, " Let not him that girdeth on his armour boaft, as he that returneth from the . battle!"

Immediately on receiving intelligence that the Ruffian troops had advanced into the Marian ter ritory, the French Ambaffador fent off a Courier to Paris.—General Count MIERTELL7 has fe; out for Berlin, with propofitions of importance.

HAMEURCR, SEPTlltill t 7, teog...-The prorpell of the blockade of our river being Coon raifed, and the probability of our communication with England by way of Cuxhaven being immediately reflored, has put us in great fpirits. We place the greateß ance on there events, well knowing that the French are about to evacuate Hanover. Indeed we are po fitively affuted that they march this day from Goa . tngen towards the Rhine, taking the route of Frank fort. Were the French not difpofed to evacuate Hano ver, there is no doubt but they would Coon find the neceffity of Co doing, for we know that the Ruffian Minißer at Stralfund has notified to the Senate of that city, that two divifions of troops, amounting to fix teen thoufand men, would fpeedily land there ; and it is alto Rated that fix thoufand Swedes, under the command of their Sovereign, are alto expelled at that place. It is whifpered here that the French Minifter has propofed to our Senate the evacuation of Cuxhaven, on condition of a certain turn of money being advanced; this I have reafon to believe is really the fait, but I think I may affure you thatithe Senate knows better than to comply, fince there can be little doubt, but the evacuation mutt necefLtrily take place. him:alp, Attu. 26.—T11e Combined fleet, which has put into Cadiz, will go to Carthagena, and take with it the (even (hips in that port: it will then fail fpr Toulon, where there are Rill five or fix (tips of the line, fo that the force of this fleet will be fifty (tips at leak fi I I ' t ; t i I i' d • l V 1 1 11 1 ; .1 , 1 I ' : , 1 1 I ; 1.
