Yellerday a third Hamburgh Mail became due. Clone of which have yet arrived ; but the Hamiurgb torrepoident to the Bth init. inclufive has been re ceived by a veffel arrived in the Humber. There papers confirm the intelligence before re delved of his Pru Man Majeßy hating taken poffeffion of the Elefllorate of Hanover, but fo far as the se coonts tonte down, they do not confirm the report of his having annexed that Eleltorate to his own terri tories. On the contrary, by the Proclamation which preceded this occupancy, the motiv: affigned for dein fo is only to avert the calamities of war from the North of Germany. We ought, however, to ob fence that the pretest accounts do not come down to the time of atual poffeffion which was fixed for the sth infant. They throw no light on any movement futfequent to the 4th, nor do they Rate any of the t t other particulars of the convention concluded be tiken Bo AAAAA Ta and the SING of PIIUSSIA. In confequence of the above arrangement, the S we difh troops had all withdrawn to the right bank of the Elbe. The Ruffians were to evacuate the Elec torate in a few days after the Prulllans entered it, and to return to their own country by Prutfian Pomerania. His SWIDISH MAJTSTi, however, appears to /aim with much reluitance : his troops continue in the Mecklenburgh territory, which he Rates, in a procla station from his head-quarters at Boitzenburgh, is to continue under his proteaion, until the conclufion of a Convention between him and his High Ally the KING of Ow's. BRITAIN. This, we lhould imagine, means nothing more than that his Swap:set May ISTY will continue faithful to his engagements with this country, until he shall be fpeclically releafed from them. Some commotions are Paid to have arifen in the .4 Torkifh provinces. in colOqueriet of the Peace of Prefburgh. Nothing more likely. Thefe infurrec tionv, intended, perbaps, to ferve as a pretext fur the introduifilon of an Aufirian army into the domi• nions of the PORTS contiguous to Hungary, were =oft probably organized before the Plenipotentiaries removed from Pretburgh. Ruffia teems aware, that fome attempt to difmember the Tut kills territory will be loon made. His lancelet Mai gars , was about to undertake a journey to Moleow, as it was given our, but which there is reafon to fuppofe would be extend. ed. to bring hint nearer to the probable fcene of mi• Heavy operations. The rumour is confirmed that a French corps has entered the City of Frankfort ; but no aft Teems to 4 have as yet been erercifed by it, which would indi• tate that it is intended to abolilb the Conllitution or privileges of that free Imperial City. It is fuggetted, from Copenhagen, that the objet of the Dania' Miniitcr Count Bsuiroaret.ii..urßey to Berlin, was to open a conference with the Ruffian ind French Minihrs. The intelligence of the death of Mr. Pit+ h Rated, in an article from the Hague, to have produced a great gestation there, and to.have already had a con fiderable influence upon Ira& ! Thefe papers contain no news'refpeaing opera tions of the French in Italy, or the means adopted for the fafety of Naples. Indeed we can hardly hope for any effort of that:kind—or if made, that it can be of the fmalleft avail. Some French and Dutch papers to a late date, I I have, we underhand, been received by Governmenti which contain Come farther particulars of the progrefs of the French troops again!! Naples. No adequate force can poffibly be oppofed in that quarter to the army dellined for its fobjugation. Theft papers end tain hardly any intelligence worthy of notice.—They (late indeed that the " Army of England", as it is infolently called, continues to move towards the coal. Private accounts from Holland, of the toth, late that the late change of Mir,itlers in England has af. folded much fatisfadion in that country, and the hopes of peace have been to firongly and anxinufly exprefred, that the Grand Petitionary has found it neceffary to declare, that the Batavian Government would lore no opportunity of manifeßing the Gazers defire it entertained of terminating die war on fair and honourable terms. It is added, that Bo had expretied himfelf in fimilar terms; and " that he was ready to treat whenever his BRITANNIC MA JESTY fhOUld =wife& a correfpoodiog difpofition." This Ratement may or may one be coned. We cannot vouch foe it. We may however remark, that if true, a great change mul have taken place in the fentiments of Narotsois finte the conclufion of the peace with Auaria. A few hours before the figning of that treaty, it was foggetled to him, that if Britain were included in the general pacification, an univerfal fatisfadtion would food appear through out the whole of Europe, and millions offer up their prayers to H for his eternal happinefs. After a pante of rote moments. Narotsow fluting up, exclaimed, " I will never content to a peace with thofe ilady.misidallibtnders, but upon one condition If my brother of England (Groans the Tams), and the Privet of tbe Welch Notice (Panic, of Watts) covenant to give their Paticsss CNAIIIO7 re in mar riage to one of my relatives, I will, in that =kJ , * the Eiglyi to remain an independent people ; but on an other terms will I ever treat with thole orate: e the Sea !" In our laft we mentioned, that a letter from Glaf gaw had furnithed ftrong grounds of alarm fbr the fafety of part, at leaf', of the Well-India convoy, which failed from Cork on the iftth of Oftober !aft. We are now able to nate, that the report orignated from a letter received at Glafgow, from St. Tho mas's, brought by the laft mail. The following is the letter alluded to r ST. THOMAS'S, DEC. 319 1805. The Ihip Neptune, belonging to Barrow and biafon's houfe, arrived yeflerday at Tortola, brings a dreadful account of the fate of the Cork fleet. Some days before that fleet made Madeira, they learned that the Rochefort fquadron was cruizing in that vi cinity, in confequesce of which the fleet came to anchor at Madeira ; but, after remaining there forne days, and hearing various reports about the fqua dron, they became divided in opit.ion, whether to make the bell of their way to the Welk Indies, or to remain under the proteetion of the forts at Madeira. Seventeen fhipsrefolved on failing ; the reit continued at anchor. A few days after the failing of there :7, they fell in with the Rochefort fquadron, which, we are told, took poffefGon of the whole of them, except the Neptune, and a chip called the Robert, of Lan caller. She continued in company with the Neptune until they were off Barbadoes, when, being at form diftance from the Neptune, the was brought to by a frigate under Er - ,glifl: colours, with whom fht kept company. Captain Wixson, of the Neptune, thought the frigate fufpicious, and therefore judged it pru dent to make the belt of his way from her. What became of the flip; that remained at Madeira, to the number of twenty-two veffels, is not afcertained." We ought to Itate that another letter of the fame date, from the fame Man.], receiied at Glafgow, makes no mention whatever of inch a calamity; that another letter of the tft ult, received at Port Glaf gow, from Tortola, is likewife Client on the fubjeit and that we cannot find that any of the letters re ceived in London by the lan packer, have Hated fuch intelligence. It may turn out that the fears of the Mailer of the Neptune have raagnified the rilque of the capture into reality—but pokive teftimony is al ways of more force than negative; and we are there. fo r e not without our fears that a part of this veto. able convoy has been captured.

It, unfortunately, has been the eufloni of late, kr the convoy, having Blips ender their protection from Cork, or elfewhere, to London to quit them on ar riving at Portfmnuth, or the downs. It may, how ever, be obferved, if the fecurity of the trade be at all in view; that it is neeeffary that the convoy fee the veffels under their care to the Nore. A letter from Harwich, received on Saturday after our Paper was at Prefs, announces the capture of r.ur other reels, by three French lugger privateers, pro bably the fame that captured the above. Part of the crew of one of the captures (the Polly, of South Shields), got on Mere at Harwich next morning, having efeaped in their boat. The names of the others . we have not learnt—one was a bark, the other two are believed to be brigs. The captor, had ran the Polly aground, and were in eonfequence obliged to abandon her—She was loon after taken priffeffion of by the Diamond packet of Berwick, Cape NISBE r. who yederday carried her into Harwich. The tranfports with troops from the Elbe nnder convoy of the Boa erre (loop of war, which arrived a few days ago in the Humber, re ached the Downs yeierday morning.
