The fallowing are the details from Heligoland' received by Government : 44 By the Heligoland Mail of the 16th instant, Ministers have received a report from the Allied Armies. It appears by General Ittucurat's report, dated the 27th October, from Eisenach, that he had pursued the enemy—had several actions,.taken many thousand Prisoners, and great quantities of Cannon and Baggage, and driven one of the French corps into the mountains of Thuringe.

Letters from the French Coast, received this morn ing, mention, that BONAPARTE is very ill, and that TALLEYRAND'has set off for Frankfort, to endeavour to open a negotiation for Peace. Other ktters mention that there have been tumul. tuary movements at Paris. A respectable House in the City, in consequence of the accounts from France, bought about one W hoa of Stock.

" When the moon rose last night th% weather in stantly cleared—to-day we have every appearance of some hours dry, aftei which we shall immediately proceed—every thing is prepared.

His Royal Highness will then receive the Address of the Corporation of the City of London, on the late victories. Yesterday the Duke of BRUN'ir.CK was at the Fo reign Office, making arrangements for his departure. Yesterday MONSIEUR called at - Carlton House, to make his enquiries after the PaINCE REGENT. A Punster observed, that when BoweAtm left Lit►sicb, he was down in the mouth! There is reason to suppose that the proceedings in Holland were unknown to Admiral YOUNG, as he returned from his station off the Dutch coast on Sun day afternoon. Baron PERPONCHER and Mr. FAUEL came direct from Scheveling toYarmouth in a schuyt. BREAD.—This day the LORD MAYOR, after in specting the Mealweighers' returns, or4ered the price to fall one assize and a half, or 3d. in the peck loaf. The quarter* loaf of wheaten will be sold for one shilling and a halfpenny, and household for eleven pence, to commence on Thursday. Yesterday a Court of Common Council was held at GuildhAll, which was very numerously attended. The Militia Committee presented a Report for snowing the tuo regiments of London Militia to volunteer for general service. The draft of a Bill being prepared by them was read, and after omitting two of the clauses, agreed to, and it was resolved that the City Members be requested to offer the whole of the two regiments of London Militia for general service. EMANCIPATiOk of liottAki) - - V In a Second Edition, yesterday, we mentioned the arrival of another Dutch Deputy. He came direct from Rotterdam, which place he left on Sunday morning, at two o'clock. His name is GEvaat, al member of the ancietit Government, and brother of Mr. GEVERS Lauirso, of Haydon-square. In the morning Mr. GEVERS waited 'on his SERENE HIGH NESS, and had also interviews with Lord! CAME. REACH and MELviLts ; and in the evening he again took his departure, charged with an important mis sion to his countrymen. We have had access to several letters from Ratter dim, by which we learn the following particulars respecting the late glorious events :—lt was on Fri day last, at four in the afternoon, that the Orange flag was hoisted with great solemnity at Rotterdam. There was a vast concourse of people of all ranks, who greeted the Ensign of Deliverance with unani mous and heartfelt acclamations. The preceding day, about noon, the French General Bourrr marched out of the Hague at the head of SOO soldiers, mostly Germans, in consequence of a sort of capitulation with the inhabitants. No sooner, however, had he reached Ysselmonde, about twelve miles from the Hague, than his troops hoisted the Orange cockade, fell upon him, beat him severely, and joined the Patriots. At Amsterdam, the populace testified their hatred of the French by burning all the watch-houses of the Dobaniers, and three of their .vessels, which formed the line of demarcation afloat. Little personal in jury, however, was done to the Douaniers them selves, only one of them haling been killed in a scuffle. The rest were suffered quietly to depart without even leaving behind them hostages for their future good behaviour. No excesses of any kind (tor what we have stated does not deserve that name) occurred in consequence of the insurrection. At Leyden a provisional government was appoint. ed, eonsisting of the Baron VAN BIETSULAER, J.VAN BOIIMFL, and W. VAN KLUIT. At Rotterdam the patriots nominatel Messrs. VON HuGENIX,RP and D'EcuLtx to the chief command. Such was the alarm of the French, that they rya culted every Yrong place except Gorcum. 13ergen-op-Zoom, Breda, and Nimeguen, were oc cupied by the patriots ; but the gates of Macstricht had been shut by the Burghers, who had declined to admit any strangers, whether of the Orange party or French. It Was not arcnratcly known whether any part of the Allied Fires had reached the Dutch ter.. itory ; but they were eagerly expected. The press has been employed to diffuse the sentiments of 'patriotism thretighout the United Provinces. We have received the first number of the revived Hague Courant, also the 'Leyden Courant, and several other patriotic Jour. nals,so the 20th instant. They are chiefly filled with Proclamations (including that published in the Ca. xete Extraordinary of Sunday). The Editors do not seem to have received any direct accounts from the theatre of war ; but the Rotterdam letters of the 19th state, that the French head-quarters were about to be removed from Mayence to Metz. By a vessel arrived this morning from the Jande, we have the report that the Batteries of Blexham, un the Weser, were blown up yesterday. FROM THE HAGUE COURANT ', November 17, 1813. " To-day the following notification was published : a As a dissolution of Government has taken place, and want of authority for only a few days might lead to the most dreadful consequences in plunder and bloodshed—therefore, we have deemed it our duty to summon without delay, a meeting of the principal Members and Ministers of the old Government, as it subsisted in 1794 and 1795. The meeting will take place to-morrow, at twelve o'clock, at the house of Mr. Gysbert Carel Van Hogendorp, at the Kneuter dyk. (Signed) 44 F. VANDER DIAN VAN MAASDAH. G. K. VAN iioor DORP. 0.

' hope we shall never again see their faces." " HARWICH, NOVEMBER 22. In the course of this day two Dutch vessels, bearing the Orange flag, made their appearance off the harbour's mouth, and one of them is understood to bring back the crew of a fishing vessel driven on shore in the late gales, who were treated with all pos sible attention and humanity by the Provisional Go vernment of Holland. They bring an official letter to the Collector of the Customs at this place, announ cing the happy change in. affairs, and No. 1, of the Hague Courant under the new Goiernment, dated the 19th of November, which announces that the new order of things has been brought about without the expence of a single drop of blood. 4( The Fleet in the Texel are said to be awaiting the arrival of our squadron to co-operate with them ; go and Adnfral fIUtRINIt t wbd iris lying in Ho llesl Bay with six sail of the roe; slipped his (ables and bas stood over, under a press of sail, to the Dotch coast ;to that, in a very few hours, we an led td pect most important news.

The Duke of YORE has apPOinted Capt. STOTHWIrt Major to the Brigade of Guards, now under Wen for Holland. Colonial produce of every kind, which had risen considerably by the previous intelligence, has had in advance by the news from Holland. Orange was the prevailing colour yesterJay on the Royal Exchange, as all the Dutch merchants, and persons connected with Holland, wore cockades, watch.ribbons, &c. &c. of that colour. In addition to the Guards an the regulars about to set off for Holland, detachments from the Royal Marines at Woolwich,Chatham, and Portsmouth, are also ordered.

DRURY LANE TIIE4TRE.—SHAKESPEARE'S Play Of Romeo and Juliet was last night repeated at this ilea ire, and the part of Juliet sustained by the young • Lady who gained so much applause in that character on Thursday evening last. Her perform ince last night was such as to convince us, the favourable opi. nion we expressed - of her on her first performance was well founded. The Play was followed by a new musi cal Afterpiece, the production, we understand, of Mr. T. DJIIDIN, called Who': to Have Her ? The music by Messrs. REEVE and WHITTAKER, is pretty, and pos sesses considerable merit. The piece was highly ap. plauded throughout, and given out for a r:cond re presentation without opposition. The performances at the Surrey Theatre those se. veral evenings past, have reflected considerable credit on the management. A short time since a Piece, taken from Itioarrze.eue's Stranger, produced an effect far beyond any expectation that could have been for med on entering this place of amusement.
