' . • LANDING OF THE PRINCE Off' ORANGE. PROGRESS OF THE EMA.I4CiPATION OF HOLLAND. To.day we have to announce the arrival of the Ara Mail from Holland. It was !bade up at Anaserdani; and Vottveyi intelligence of the !host animating de. icription. The Dutch are every where successful in driving out their oppressors ; and, in Most instances, without bloodshed. They content tht•tuselves with beating the Douaniers, and ducking the military in the sluices ! _'Their Prince has arrived among thetti; and every Dutchman is reeling under a fit of loyal intoxitatioci to pay him the homage of a faithful subject. The infumous villain who commands the Texel fleet (Vaunt:h.) still refuses to hoist the Orange flag, but he has few seamen under him; and those are disaf fected. He cannot hold out long. The reports cir csiated in Holland of the defeat of DAvousr and the restoration of Ha.mburgh, are anticipations of events likely to happen. We cannot, ho..vever, confirm theta officiallr as yet. Mean time, the circulation of stub exhllirating reports can do no harm. They are kordlals to every wavering heart at such a crisis. Our Harwich litter efttains a rumour that Mar. Thal Bt.t/tusa had occupied Utrecht with 13,000 We apprehend, however, that France, and not Holland, is the destination of this gallant and en teipriting leader.

The brig Dispatch has arrive& at Plymouth, from Passage, in ballast, bound to London, in four dots. Some smart skirmishes between the hostile armies had taken place in the neighbourhood of Bayonne, two or three days previous to her departure from Passage, during which a General Officer is said to ha* fallen, and an Officer of distinction wounded. We stated exclusively in the Stan, a few days since, that the American Mission to Russia to Implore the mediation of that Power in the dispute between Great Britain and America, had totally failed ; and that the persons who composed that mission had been dismissed from St. Petersburg!: with the con tempt they deserved. It was with no small degree of surprise, therefore, that we next day witnessed an assertion of a brother Journalist of a direct contrary tendency. In charity we are bound to suppose that the Editor to whom We allude must have been im posed upon by some of the unprincipled Americans now suffered to go at large in the metropolis by the mistaken leniency of our Home Secretary. We copy the following ample recantation of this Gentleman's error from his Paper of today. It is the fairest way in which we can bring the subject before the Public, and it is a full confirmation of the accuracy and pri ority of our own sources of information : " Lettere have been received from St. Petetsburgh, dated die Sti ult. which announce the arrival of Lord WA LPOLR in the city, and which'set entirely at rest the question respecting the Ewrcaom's mediation for the restoration of peace between Great Britain and the Uni:ed States.

He arrived at Carlton-House soon after four o'clock, where he had an interview with the PRINCE REGENT. His Royal Highness afterwards went to the Commander in Chief's Office, and had a long consultation with his Royal Brother the Duke of Yona.

On a subject which neebbarily excites so nisuch anxiety, We ate enabled to-day to present our Readers with something in an authentic shape. The fellow ins are our Doftr Correspondents' letters oh the subject LSOVER, DECEMbER " Came lel this morning a galliot undet Prussian colours, froM Calais, having cut her ropes and run out of that harbour yesteiday evening. The Revo. lution in Holland was first khotsu there yesterday, and 400 conscripts, who had been training at that place for fourteen days, were Matched off for Ant-, werp : they were but boys, and fiery young ones, fors soldiers. No particular news Was known at Calais, of at least not publicly talked of ; yet the late severe lbsses oldie French, and the Revolution in Holland, caused the people to suppose the career of Bose- PARTE to be nearly terminated." ANOTHER LETfER—SAME DATE: 1 4 A vessel came in this morning, which left Calais last night, being apprehensive of an ititmediate embargo. BONAPARTE remained at Paris i and yesterday morn ing it was slightly known at Calais that there had , been an insareetion i n H o ll an d, an d t h at t h e Eng lish troops had snatched into Amsterdam. French troops' tornposed chiefly of boys, were marching from all quarters its the direction of Holland ; not a soldier remained in Calais, nor, in fact, any male, except old men, cripples, and infants. Two Swedish. ships, and eleven ships from Oporto, have been taken and carried into Calais and Dunkirk." Lord WELLINGTON has appointed Lieutehant Colo, nel GRANT, of the 15th dragoons, a Colbnel on the Staff, with the command of the 4th Brigade of ca. valry, lately under the orders of Major General LONG. Major• General Glass, who commands' the British regiments arrived from Strakund, and now proceed ing on the expedition to Holland, has appointed Lieutenant T. It. MEADf., late British Aide-de-Camp and Secretary to his Excellency Lieutenant-Generar Count WALMODEN, to be his extra Aide-de-Camp on his present service. The.present want of troops in America has occa sioned the removal of some fihe Regiments from the West India Islands to Canada, viz. the • first - ham lions of the 15th, 90th, and 96th. , The second bat talions of the 15th and 96th (intended for continental service), have only six Captains, and therefore offer great advantages to Volunteer,Captains of Militia. Two vessels have arrived flom Passages. Gne of them sailed on the 25th ult. and brings an actount of the incessant rains having for some days prevented any movement in advance ; but that having ceased, the cavalry and artillery had been ordered to march. —There was a report just before she sailed, that SOULT had been obliged to detach 20,000 men to his rear, to quell some disturbances that had broken out. Some late letters have reached us from Italy; those from Genoa are to the beginning of November. In that city, and the adjacent country, all males between 16 and 60 years of age, were required to enrol them selves for the public defence. We have advices from Heligoland by a ship which left :hat on Monday last. About 170 vessels had arrived from the Weser and the neighbouring coast, in consequence of the removal of the blockade. The Dutch General Da Kocu, formerly Com mandant at 13 rtavia, and another °facer of tank, have arrited in town, in behalf of the Dutch pri soners; ia order to consult with the Gentlemen who isn't the Deputation from Holland. The number of D'ltch prisoners here has been greatly overrated by the public Journals. We understand the number is under 3000. The following is an eitract of a private letter re. ceived at Am4etdam, dated ." Nancy, Nciveatber iB. 44 I received your letter of the l2th, which van. quillized me with regard to your personal safety, about which I was not a little alarmed. It was yes-1 terday reportediere, that in order to preveit the ene my from entering Holland) Orders had been given to cut down the dikes. So desperate a step has struck me with horror. You can have no idea of all that is said here—bow men speak out and clamour, not only in private houses, but in coffee-houses, inns, the streets and marketplaces —country people and town's peo ple, are all loud in their complaints; and what not a little contributes thereto is that we are now assured of the destructive defeats of the army, of which it is cor rectly reported that there are not now 60,000 men left in a state fit for service) officers and men come back with sticks in their hands; the former have no l longer any. soldiers to command, and the latter are without arms. " But the most horrible spectacle of all are *the sick and wounded. The hospitals are crowded with them—they are there lying upon straw.about SOO. of them have been sent to 13eaucerville, where they are starving like mice. In short, all that you see is lamentable. Some who are less sick than others are begging alms on the highways. They are most of them young conscripts, who look so pale and mis• shapen, that every one exerts himself to give them something to eat and to warm them abut what adds to our misfortunes, we are to have 15,000 men quar tered upon us, for whom we ifiust not only find lodg ing but also food. " Since last week, the price of the common whea ten loaf, which cost SO sous, has risen to 44 sous, and this not from any want of corn, of which there is abundance, but from the want of hands to thresh it, which is not women's work. To-day some fugitives have arrived from Cologne. 14 At Metz 40,000 men are collected. Not a lodg ing is to be got there. " The people here ate afra?d of being sooner inva ded by the enemy than you in Holland. Pot k costs here 22 sous, and other kinds of meat 17 sous. " There are no longer artisans here. When you want a pair of shoes, you must bespeak them too months beforehand. Such is the wretched situation of Nancy. " As to the army, I can give you no certain infor mation. All who come here from it bring with tient the most dismal reports."
