Russians, has been forwarded with a promptitude which reflects the highest honour on those depart. ments in which the necessary arrangements have been made. Two hundred thousand Pounds, in specie, were forwarded from the Bank of England, on Tues. day evening, for Yarmouth, to be embarked for the Baltic. The money will be entrusted to the care of Co. lonel Lowa, who, with his suite, arrived at Yarmouth at the same time. They will embark .on board a King's cutter, which has been fitted for the purpose. After mentioning the supply thus promptly granted to a brave and distressed nation, we hope soon to be enabled to announce, that the fees of office flowing from all Parliamentary grants, and which are under stood to be at all times sufficiently enormous to satisfy a woderate appetite for money, have not been deducted from the contributionsto the Russians. General Hors and suite also arrived at Yarmouth yesterday morning. He will embark for Gotten burgh on board the DAntsz sloop of war, Captain Ptros. Among our extracts from the Foreign Journals, will be found an Order cf the Day, or Proclamation, issued in Russia, for the Capture of BONAPARTE ; to which is subjoined a very accurate description of , his person. We must presume that it was this Proclamation which the Isere had in his eye, when he dictated the Bulletin, in which he says, a The Russians make war like savages." These very sa vages were, however; humanely bent upon saving the lives of three hundred thousand of their fellow crea tures, and the delivering up of their ambitious Leader would have procured them a safe convoy out of Russia It is now demonstrated, beyond the possibility Of contradiction, that since the first intelligence from i Lord CATHCART arrived, the career of the Russians has been regularly and uninterruptedly victorious. While we congratulate the suffering nations of Europe, but above all, our generous countrymen, on the gplorious results of the campaign, let it never be forgotten that infinite pains were taken by some English Journalists, as if they took a delight in their ruin, nct only to con tradict but to turn into ridicule Lord CATIICARVS dis patches, and all the honest efforts of their contompor raries to second the exertions of the brave Russians, and to rouse the energies of mankind against the common destroyer. Nay, even within these few days, when they know that.his whole power is on the brink of annihila tion, these miserable and grim-visaged politicianscling, with fond attachment, to the remains of the 4 , Grand iirtny," and tell us that Munar has rallied the broken divisions, and that their " Great tutelary Genius" is ready to advance against Russia with a fresh army in the spring ! The elegant epithets of "swaggering Ministerialists!" " hot-headed followers of the Trea. sury !" and " base hirelings!" have been daily la. vished by these weak and misguided men, upon all who backed the brave Russians against the common enemy. Of those cold-blooded underlings, we may fairly ask, Whose hirelings are you ? 44 I am his Highness.' dog at Kew, Sir!— " Pray whose cur are you, Sir?" Our Readers will, no doubt, compare the follow ing ' account of the passage of the Berezyna with the twenty-ninth Trench Bulletin. It is from the pen of Sir ROBERT WILSON, who was an eye witness : gi Admiral TSCHICHAGOFF had, on the morning of the 28th of November, commenced his attack on the corps of troops that covered the filing of the enemy's army across the bridge : this corps was commanded by OUDINOT, and strongly posted in a wood. The Russians, from the nature of the ground, could only use their tirailleurs, and lost 4,000 men in the action —the enemy not so many ; but General LE GRAND was killed—Marshal OUDINOT, General MERLE, and another General, wounded. 4 , Towards dusk, WITTGENSTEIN'S advanced-guard reached the heights that commanded the original bridge, and a new foot-bridge on the Berezyna, over which the enemy was passing. Three batteries were immediately established ; but as soon as BONAPARTE heard the guns firing in his rear, he instantly ordered the bridges to be burnt, when the most appalling scene of horror and confusion ensued—carriages, guns, infantry, cavalry, men, women, and children, , all hurried or rushed towardg the flaming piles. The rear was composed of persons whom BONAPARTE would not save at the hazard of his best troops.— Many were drowned, many burned, many crushed by the fall of the flaming timbers, many killed or mangled by the shot from the Russian batteries, which were now disvcted with fatal aim to this en. sanguined spot. g g All the remaining equipages of the French army, includiug those coaveying the plunder of the churches of Moscow, and immense treasure, much of whielnras in French gold solo, fell into the bands of Count WlTTorninnes army. The main priee,l hariver. escaped." Other accounts describe the apprehensions and anxieties of 13osAp4nres mind, when left with his few remaining troops on'the march towards Wilna, ' as most acute. On hearing that NEY had escaped, he is said to have exclaimed—u I would give the two hundred millions I am worth in the Thuilleries, if that report could be confirmed." When he saw NEY actually entering his camp, with a handful of men, he could scarcely speak to welcome him. The Marshal is said to have loudly reproached DAVOINT ) and in directly BONAPARTE himself. To those honoured with the sight, the presentation of her Royal Highness the Princess C/lARLOTTE of WALES to her MAJESTY, will be splendid and grati fying on various accounts. It must be a delightful thought to the Princess, that she will be introduced on the great stage of human life by the guiding band of her amiable and affectionate Mother. Yesterday the Duke of YORK, the LORD CHAN. CELLOR, and the Duke of MANCHEATCR, had audiences of the PRINCE REGENT. The Earl of LIVERPOOL is indisposed with a vio lent cold, and an attack of the ague. The Noble Earl has been confined to his room for above a week, and has only seen Lord CASTLEREAGH, and a few of the Ministers on business. The Earl of MotnA gives, in the course of the en suing week, a splendid and magnificent entertain ment, as a farewell fete, previous to his departure for India. The preparations have been same weeks in progress, and are conducted upon a scale, as - to taste and munificence, which must render this entertain ment one of the most brilliant upon record in the annals of fashion. The Earl of MOIRA takes out a very small esta blishment with him to India. A General Meeting of the Subscribers to Lloyd's will be held on Wednesday next, for the purpose of taking into consideration what sum should be voted from the funds of that house towards the subscription for the relief of the Russian sufferers. Letters from Rio Janeiro, of the 23d of October, state, that the Buenos Ayres army had attacked the Portuguese at my of observation on the frontiers.— After an obstinate conflict, the Spaniards are said to have been defeated. The particulars had not trans pired when the last accounts left ;he Brazils. The Swedish expedition is said to be again prepar ing.—Magazines are collecting, and large ships are detained for the transport of the troops. The French Government is said to have called upon the King of DENMARK to send the whole of his force to join the French in active service. It is also said to be in order to prevent their doing so, that the Swedes are renewing the appearance of their expe dition. The Rev. Dr. ANDREWS, Dean of Canterbury, has resigned the valuable Rectory of Micklam, in Surrey, and last Sunday preached his farewel Sermon to that congregation. This living is in the gift of the TALBOT family. ' Since the passing of the Act, securing religimii" liberty to Dissenters, the Intolerants in some quarters have attempted nee, modes of vexation without any new law. Among them is one to rate or tax places of worship. A circumstance of this nature lately occurred at Worcester, where a chapel was rated, and the Bibles, Psalm-books, candlesticks, &c, seized for the payment. An immense concourse of people, as well those de nominated " Friends" as others, assembled at the Meeting-house in St. Martin's-lane, on Tuesday even ing, to hear a Sermon delivered by a Frenchman, lately arrived from New York on a mission to the people of that persuasion in tl is country. The dis course lasted ahove two hours, and was delivered with great fluency, and in language sufficiently perspicu ous, though of course with a foreign idiom. Last week, a serious mi. understanding having taken place between Messrs. G. and B. two young Officers, quartered in Dumfries, a meeting took place, when Mr. B. fired at, but happily missed his antagonist. Mr. G. then fired his pistol in the air, and inade a satisfactory apology, when the matter was adjusted. At Norwich Corn Market, on Saturday, the de mand for Wheat continuing brisk, best samples ob tained 635. and inferior 565. to 60s. per coomb.— Barley was in good supply, and price rather lower than last week ; best 355.. to 375. ; and Oats 255. to 265. per coomb. At the Cattle Hill there was a to lerable show of both lean Scots, and home-breds, which sold as high as last week. The sheep-pelts were not full. Lambs suffered no abatement in price. ANECDOTE OF CONSIODORE ROCZRS.—This redoubt able hero, once a trader on the coast of Guinea, has all the brutality usually attributed to those concerned in that abominable traffic in human beings. An Officer, who served under him in the President, but is now in the British service, has communicated to us the following Inecclote, on which we may rely:— Being under sail in the Mediterranean, the sailors were ordered on the yards to take in a reef, and the men laid themselves out on the yards for that pur pose. The gallant Commodore, however, conceiving that they were not smart enough, fell into a dreadful paroxysm of rage, and running down into his cabin, returned with a double-barrelled gun, and, present inrit at the men on the starboard main-yard, swore that he would shoot them. From a knowledge of the disposition of this modern Paul Jones, the men were so affrighted, that three of them dropped from the yard-arm into the sea, and were drown ed; two fell on the deck, and were dashed to pieces, one pitched on some hammoc, and was not hurt. On the arrival of the ship in America, Mr. —....-, with the intrepidity of an Englishman, boldly accused the Commodore of murder, and instantly wrote to the President of the United States. He was sent for to Washington, and interrogated as to the charge, which he again adduced, and avowed that he was ready to prove it. The humane—the philosophic Jameson told him that justice should be done, but Roncens had friends in a certain quarter—the affair slept—the officer who relates the story quitted the President—returned to Englapci a and is now on board a British man of war.

RA zges.—The CULLODEN, of 74 guns, at, was taken into the stern-dock, in that yard, day last, f&1 the purpose of being cut down, to the size of a frigate, as in the case of TIGABLE ; she is to have her quarter-decl castle taken away, but will retain her which will be flush fore and aft. • It is con! the Navy Board that even thus partially she will be no more than a match for the American frigates, which, by carrying guns gangways, have in effect two complete dee a 74-gun ship, even of the largest class, • down to a frigate (razee), be inferior to built frigate of 38 guns.— The following: went will corroborate this : A 64-gun-ship carries on one side of her gain-deep A 74 ditto, (second class,) ditto, 14 guns. Ditto, (first class,) ditto, 15 guns. A 38-gun frigate, of the dais of the Macedonian, Ditto, of the class of the Acosta, 16 guns. President, United States, and Constitution, 16 , Hence it appears that a 74-gun ship, even of class, would be numerical?, inferior in guns . laxly-built frigate of the 38-gun class. The periority a razee has, is, the being enabled heavier metal than the frigates, of 38 guns will tarry one gun less. The Indefatigable, mouth, (razee,) was cut down from a 64., ries three guns less on each side than President, United States, and Constil would not be a match for either of I Board have therefore acted wisely in orderini Culloden to lose only her quarter-deck - castle ; and, it is said that the Triumph, at Plymouth ) is n'si undergo a like change. ♦IL Dl t 1 n - 1 y 0 (Ala master, r, bound t a aving a B r i. ig privateer, tis Majeu ! , , g a, and sent returned :- 11 within t'e t , g a pilot oa by a French appearing he sloop lie. :nte Freud' !nty month!, panish Mali, ttions on our returned to the Occar, ent, and no ife in.
