MASI:RA(IH, DECEMBER 19. Since the enemy has observed the preparations Made at Itehl, he has desisted from his attempts on that point. It appears that upon the whole line of the Rhine the coalesced powers have discovered the impossibility of successfully making the least attack. Reinforcements continue to arrive. BAYONNE, DECEMBER it No Military event has taken place for some days in our neighbourhood. Yesterday only the enemy made two reconnbisances from the side-of St. Martin D'Arberone ; they were repulsed.

Our merchants . also exult in bearing that tese depots for our , manufactures. at Heligoland are *zhausted, so rapid is the consumption and so freqeelit the de mands of continental Waders : " HELIGOLAND, DECEMBER U. • 14 Since the commencement orthismonth, upwards of an hundred small vessels, of abjut 40 tons burthen, have arrived here from the Weser, and two or three from the . Elbe . : they come chiefly in ballast, and re turn with colonial produce and English manufactures. The merchants have found an excellent market at Bremen for their goods; so much so, as nearly to empty the Heligoland warehouses." " ALTONA, DEC. 10. 14 The van-guard of the Allies had pushed on to Keil, and taken possession of that town. The Danes revved on all points into Sleswick, and appeared as if they meant to take a position on "the Eider. " Not far from Wandsbrek the Allies fell id with a division of Danes and French. Two Jutland regi ments, which had formerly suffered severely in the Mecklenburgh territory, and had promised each other neither to give or take quarter, recesved orders to attack the Allies. They pushed forward with such wild and inconsiderate heat, that they were left to themselves by the French, who are always suspicious of treachery and desertion, even from the Danes ; and were surrounded by the Allies. " The battle was maintained with so much inve teracy, that only between three and four hundred men of both regiments returned to Altona, but who can no longer escape, as itzehoe and Penneberg are said to be already garrisoned by the Alli. s. " Gluckstadt and Ham burgh are cut off from all communication with the main body of the Danes+ and both places are still more strictly, inclosed than ever. ,6 A happy conclusion of the negociations conti nued with the Danish Cabinet is here expected, since the engagement at Rahlaced, which proved so unfo r tunate for the Danes, with so much more probability as all Holstein loudly declares itself in favour of the' Allies, and against the alliance with France. " The Holstein Landiliehr, from which such great things were expected, his in mast places dissolved it. self, and openly declared against fighting the Allies. At Wandsbrek the Landwehr was in vain called to arms. instead whereof, a piquet of French troops marching through that place, were severely mal treated. N In Penneberg' the people have openly declared, Chat they were willing to take np arms against the Ifench, who had been the cause of all their misfor tunes, but that' they would never fight against Russia, under whose Government they had formerly been happy. 44 Thehead-quarters of his Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Sweden, are said to be at Segeberg. According to the statement of a Dutch Engineer, Hamburgh is described not to be near so strong as reported. On some of the fortilk.ations of that city, French workmen only were employed, and it is sus pected fat secret mines arefilaid there. Towards the Dam gate a considerable Star-fort has been con. structed. " are, here in great fear for out' town, on ac count of the continued operations against liamburgh, all hopes of a c-ipitulation having vanished. The Allied troops are said to conduct themselves remark. ably well, and pay for every thing in- ready money." ALTONA, DECEMBER r Every thing is quiet here up to this moment, eleven o'clock in the morning. « The Cossacks are in Elmshons, at Pinneberg, and ifzchol, as likewise - at Langenfeldt. They behave I well every where, and .take possession of the Royal chests only. " We entertain hopes that our Government has embraced the better side. " Our advanced posts have orders not to fire on the Cossacks. 4 ' The communication with Copenhagen and Tlins borg is totally cut off. English Hussars have march ed into Penneberg. " The Gates of the City of Hamburg were closed on the 11th, and the communication suspended." “ BREMEN, DECEMBER 16. , d The territory. of Holstein is now entirely occu- pied by the Allies, the Danes having retired behind the Eider, and possess only the town of Rendsburg, on the canal of Holstein." " BREMEN, DECEMBER 17. " The army of the General of Artillery, Von Hil ler, it to be strengthened by 60,000 Russians." 44 The French are fortifying Geneva and Besancon a certain proof that they no longer consider Switzer land as a protection for their Southern departments." 4 , By the Ist of January, all'the continge►ts of the Princes formerly belonging to the Confederacy of the Rhine, but who, as is known, have all joined .the great German Confederation must be on the Rhine ; and as they are making as great and extraordinary exertions as Russia did before, the amount of the troops of the late Confederation of the Rhine, which will by that time be complete, will amount to 860;000 men, to which, if we add the considerable armies of Russia, Austria, Pruisia, and Sweden, we shall not over-rate our calculation in affirming that, at the commencement of the year 1814, 800,000 valiant and disciplined warriors will be is readiness to conquer the Peace of the World." iivor tb, 414istt of thollokiitio. !P I aizrn lte the 114 success o(Ceosal Nug „ ibliged Cosa Stahrembestitsaso elm A H el i go l an d Utast gratifying per rugent has Incited septets, that which relates -not sufficient to enable Ida to resume k etareen D enmar k • wFsrr., DECIMBER t a. humanity will rejo merchants will also iquil on the Rhine.

MATIA had gained such signal advantages, Wherefore does he not send the official details ? Are the siz lines, above alluded to, to be considered as the only accounts which it is convenient to publish ?

They are on the hi b road to the place of execution, and they know it. 1 Deiember 24, and not sooner, they prepose to take into consideration the Papers relative to the Negociation, which, according to the declaration of the Ist inst. issued by the Allies, Latl.terminated. The meeting is subsequently put off to the 27th. In the mean time, Boturaserx continues to review his troops, and appoints an audience with the Minister of War for the Bth `of January, when he doubtless expects to be able to delude the French people, and to terrify the Al ' lies by a most tremendous explosion. The Minister of War will of course report that the French are every I where triog to arms with shouts of Vive PBmltorear! Nothing but fables arc related to the French people fro* the Northern frontiers. The French army at Antwerp is advancing upon Breda, to retake it, we suppose, although no reason is assigned for such a movement. All is tranquil on the Rhine, the coa lesced Powers having discovered the impossibility of making the least attack. The Luke of TAHENTUM seems to be the only french Marshal able to make head against tke lies. He is destined to re-conquer Holland, and we congratulate him on his appointment. He will re turn faster than he came.—ln Italy the French troops are•of course so triumphant, that the Austrians do not think it prudent to attack them. Lord CASTLEREAGH hid not arrived at Harwich when the post came away yesterday. His domestics oib and suite who preceded him were there.

" General Tem:moat( took possession of the Bat teries at Wollerwick, and opened the navigation of the river Eyder, which is now completely free.— Thus the Allies obtained possession of the whole DUchy of Holstein, and entered upon that of Sles wick. ‘• Letters from the General to the Governoi of Heligoland, announce these advantages, together with the particulars of a Cessation of Arms, which has taken Otte between the Danes and the Allies." A report has reached us at French Papers have just arrived, which state that a change of Ministry has taken place in Paris, and that TALLEIRAND has been called into office. About twelve on Saturday night last the house of Mr. Cornaaar Pet, farmer, at Scaffold Hill Mill, near Newcastle, occupied by himself, a brother, and two sisters, all advanced in years, was attacked by three men, who entered at a window, which they bad previously broken in with a heavy iron mallet. They first secured Messrs. Pits by locking them up in an inner chamber' while they were thus engaged, one of the 'islet effbcted her escape, and alarmed some neighbours ; who p on coming to the house, found the other sister lying upon the door insensible, having been knocked down and otherwise ill-treated. The robbers had .fled, and taken with them a wooden chest % containing upwards of £lOOO, which had been hoarded in it for some time. A hue and cry was instantly raised; and the box was found in an adjoin ing held, with about £4OO of the money. The rob bers have as ye; eluded justice. DUBLIN, DECEMBER 24.—0 n the evening of Sa turday, as the Rev.

A likeaccident happened at the same spot, on that night b to a servant who had a most critical escape of sharing the same fate. nit Fou.--Several accidents bate already come to our knowledge, occasioned by the very heavy tog on Monday evening. Several coaches on the North. road were overturned, although no particular mis chief occurred. A poor woman, a laundress, of the name of Maggs, fell from a height of six leet whilst walking on the Bayswater foot-path, and was taken to the hospital in a dangerous state. An old man, of the name of Beaumont, Was run over by a stage, in crossing from Swallow-street to Oxford-street, and . had a leg broke. A gig, which a gentleman was . driving through the Haymarket, came in contact with a post with such violence, as to throw him out, and fracture his skull. Several hackney-coaches were overturned in the same vicinity, but no very serious consequences ensued. Early yesterday morning a lighterman, conveying a coal-barge up the river, ran foul of a pile, near .Blackfriars Bridge, and being at the time on theside of the craft, was thrown off, and drowned. Last night n Captain in the navy was coming to town in the Portsmouth coach, he left his trunk on the roof, and when they arrived in 131ackfriars_Road, the tog was so great that the persons in it were imper ceptible, and in passing near the Elephant and Castle,- the trunk containing tisoney and property to the amount 01 ARM, was stolen. Tuesday_se'nnighi, as Lieutenant lawur, of the 11th RoyaNeteran Battalion,•was on his orderly visit to the Martello Towers on the Stissex coast, near Winchelsea, he observed a boat making for the shore, which on going to he found to contain three English men, who had made their escape from a Frenifi.pri son. They were in a very miserable and weakly state ; and refreshment and rest being desirable for them, they were left as comfortable as posiible in the Tower No. SS, till the following diy ; when, on exa mination at Winchelsea, it appeared, (according to their statement,) that they belonged to the Sd Regi silent of Dragoon Guards, the depot of which is at present in Canterburytheir names, Robert Greenil Thomas Philpot, and W. Clayson ; that they were taken prisoners at Burgos, about two years ago, and since confined in Raspe Prison, in the interior of France, from whence they effected their escape, and after travelling for ten days, cjiiefiy by night, arrived at Cher bourg, where they took an open boat, and were five 'days and nights upon the water, during which they suffered very much from curld and hunger.
