! . , '.~' l tl. ~. VP" , HAMBURG!' MAIL. STATE PAPER. NOTE FROM THE HANOVERIAN MINISTRY TO THE LOYAL PRUSSIAN DIRECTORIAL COUNSELLOR VON ROHM, RESPECTING THE WITHDRAWING OF THE PRUSSIAN TROOPS PROM THI kLECTORATI OF HANOVER. Hanover, Juni La His Majefty the KING of Pavane having in the beginning of April of the prefent year unexpect edly ordered that corps of his troops hitherto act ing with the army of obfervation, formed for the general defence, to take poffeffion of the diaries in Germany belonging to his Enures/etc MAJESTY as gleitor of Brunfwick and Luneburg, the caufes and motives, which induced his Majelly the King of Fruffra to retort to this extraordinary and unex. • peed meafure, were Rated to the German Mini. ftry of his Britannic Majefty, in a written declara tion of the Both of March of the prefent year, on the part of his Pruffian Mefly, by his Minifter of • State, of War, and of the Cabinet, Count Sot ut. easuao, tent to Hanover for that purpofe. There caufes and motives were founded on the differences that had arifen between his Britannic Majefty and the Cmwns of Denmark and Sweden, on account of the Peteribargh Convention of the ;6th of De cember, 'goo ; on the proceedings of England again& Denmark and Sweden; on the engagements of his Praffinn Majelly for his'allies, agreeably to his acceffion to the Peterlburgh Convention, and 'particularly on the circumaance that England would not retort to means for an amicable fettle. unlit of thefe differences. Hence his Pruffian Ma ' fifty deduced his refolution " not only to• (hut up the mouths of the Elbe, Wefer, and Ems, but alfo to take poffe Rion of the Statesof his Majefly the King of the United Wands of. Great Britain and Ireland, flowed in Germany, and belonging to him as Elector of Brunfwick and Luneburg." His Pruf fian Majefty added, in his letter addreiTed to his Britannic Majeßy's GermanMinilters at Hanover, I that the faid declaration related to the differ ences that had arifen between England and the Northern Powers, and was to be confidered surely as a neceffary confequence of the difagreeable cir cumitances that bad taken place." By the eir cumllances and caufes, therefore, affigned. as the reafon on the part of Pruffia, the agreement was relative, which his Britannic Majefty 's German Mi sultry, together with the General commanding his German troops, were obliged to enter into on the 3d of April of the prefent year, and whereby, un der the waning circnmftances, the entrance of the Pruffian troops and their maintenanceby the King's -German poffeffions were agreed to.—lt is now well known, that the circumitances and caufes for merly exifting have been entirely changed and re . moved in the courfe of the month of April, and Rill more in the courfe of the month of May, fo • that circumfiances, at prefent, are rather the re. • aerie. Hoftilities have ceafed between England and the Northern Powers, and fo far from rejecting means for an amicable feulement, intinediate fricndly millions have even taken place on both fides, and the Crowns of Denmark. and Sweden, imitating the wife fentiments of his Majefty the prefent EMPEROR of Russia, are at:Wally engaged an amicably fettling the differences with the Bri. tills government. The happy iffue of thefe pea. ceable Negociations not being doubted by any of the parties, the Britifh government began rendering commerce free in the Baltic; Ruflia, Denmark,and Sweden have reamed the commercial intercourfe by public declarations; and the embargo formerly laid on Englifh (hips in Ruffia is again taken off.— His Majefty the King of PRUSSIA having, during the courfe of thefe fucceffive changes, permitted , all commercial and other intercourfe with his Bri tannic Majay'S fubjees, which has likewife re rnalued undillurbed by England, with refpe& to the Pruffian States, it it evident, that his Pruffian littljelly has no longer any caufe for allowing mea . fures to be taken, on his part, againll the Crown of England. But his Majelly the King of Paussi• has silo declared already, that the meafures whirls had been fnrmerly taken, could now no longer be deemed applicable and expedient, fo that, on the part of Prptlia, the Riming up of the rivers is en tirely annulled, and the i\av igation of the Elbe and Wcfer has been again declared free. His Majefty the King of PRUSSIA, from the fame eonfideration has lilewife demanded from the Crown of Den mark, and effected, the evacuation of Hamburgb 'and Lubeck, and withdrawn the troops that had been Rationed in the Duchy of Oldenburg, for the pnrpofe of occupying the left Banks of the Wefer. It is impoffible, therefore, that the occupation of his Britannic Majeßy's dominions, which had been' connected with the &ruing up of the rivers, and grounded on the fame caufes, can alone remain and continue. On the contrary,it appearsevidently,from the whole eourfe of the proceedings, that the caufes no longer any where exiß which furnithed the ground for the letter addreffed to the King's Mi. nary here by the King of Pridfia, on the 3oth Of March, the declaration made by his Majefty in confequence thereof, and the agreement afterwards entered into. It is impoiliße to confider this intreeably to his Majefly's wifdom and jollier, hitt as fomething which cannot be miftaken by him, and which, in the events already Rated, his Area., di been admitted and acknowledged by his Maje ty. The fentiments which his Majelly the Xing of Pruffia entertains for his Britannic Majelly. the fricndly relations fulififting between him sad the Crovrn s of England, will, therefore, kayo po doubts on this fubjee, without being under ells neeeffity of recurring to the nature of the Onnfti union of the German Empire, and the Union di Sts States with each other, wh it refpee to this I s a. fnes, which relates entirely to a foreign kingdom, rind which has always been, and will ennlisftrain, foreign to the dominions which his Majefty pelf ferret as Elettor, and as a Rate of the German Ern, pine.—All this is grounded on the firm confidence which his Britannic Majefty here willies to mani fefl, that his Malelly the King of Prat& will not heihnie to withdraw his troops from his Majeßy's German dominions; and that maintainance will no longer he demanded for thefe troops, which has been fo burthenfonte to the country, The King's Miniaer hes, for this purpote, addreffed this note' to the Pruisan DiredorialCounfellor, Von DOHS., entreating him, at the fame time, to forward it to his Court, and to effed a fpeedy re.rolution in con fequence.

The French, having made a defperate refiftance, were at taft limited to a fmgle fort, which, finding iaapofible to be defended, - duy had at length alfo &livered up. ROMS ' June is.—The French Mininifter CAL CLUI.T had delivered k memorial, containing the demaias made by BONAPAILTS for the French cler gy, which the POPS refuted to grant, upon which &at Minifter quitted Rome,and proceeded to Flo rence. Cardinal Gorizatvi has fince been die-. patched for Paris, by his Flotresss. The French government demanded, among other'things, that a Patriarch Ibould be eftablifhed in France, after the example Of the former Patriarchs of Cones& tinople, Alexandria, &c. independent of the Pots; that the French laws relative to divorce, the new oath of the clergy, &c. Mould be approved of. His Holinefs is greatly dejeaed, and has been indif poled for fome days pall. It is not expelled that he will content to the demands of the French Go vernment, refpeaing the conflitutional clergy in France, as it would be of the moll dangerous con fequence for the reft of the Roman Catholie clergy.

FROM THE LAST PARIS PAPERS. bfAoitio, Juni sp.,—When the Panics of Plum in the name of his CATHOLIC MAJESTY, figned a treaty of peace with Portugal, tlif Spanif6 army was in poffe(noo of almon the whole proviuce of Alentejo. On the 23d, the 24th, and the asth of May, the troops under the command of Don lowACIO LAN• CASTER, took the fortified places of Santla-Otallay Barbacena, St. Vincent, and Montfort. On the apth, Arronches, an old fortified town, which had alfo been nrengthened with tome Trio. dern works, was attacked. The light infantry maftered the gate by affault. Don Josaiw SOILA- No, their commander, was mortally wounded.— On the 3111 the plate was evacuated by the molly. The cavalry of the garrifon fled at full gallop. One thoufand five hundred infantry who had Alto marched out of the town, made head againfi the Spanifh cavalry, but were defeated, with the lots of tso killed, So wounded, and ifia taken pri. loners. The Spaniards then occupied the Camp of Epee, and the flrong holds pf Afumar, Ale. gretta and its cattle, and Port-Alegro, in which' was found a quantity of military fibres and pro-. vifions. The Portuguefe, in their flight, left be hind them two pieces of artillery, a number of (lands of arms, and a good waggon with ammu nition. Juke s.—Lieutenant-Colonel Don RAYMOND Piet took polkffion of Cafleldavid, after an ob. flinate contell. Eighteen piece; of cannon, of dill ferent widths, four howitzers, a quantity of am munition, fire-arms, and accommodations belong in to the Park of artillery, fell to the vitlors. Jusa 4.—The Marquis of 'Moe* encountered th‹• v s anguaid of the enemy near the hamlet of Rotes. It confined of font companies of grena diers, two of Chafkurs, a troop , of as Portuguefe, and .so Bridal dra(oons, with four pieces Of artillery, and so waggons. nit whole were put to flight. The Britifh - were the firfl to fly. After the anion, the town and fort of St Lucia were thrrendered. At Boba our troops were glad ly received. General Oaticiop z had notice, that he was impatiently etpeaed iirritrapos, Erin moue, aad Evora. In a variety of lkirmifhes the Portugnefe were conassoly voracci. ( From tk Maki!
