LONDON. THURSDAY. JANUARY g. We have already bad «carton to Rate that the Emperor Acsiamota has fent to our Court the molt fatisfaCtory affurances, that notwithrtanding the re cent events in Moravia, he will Rill maintain hi► Treaty with this Country. Reports differ as to other particulars eommunica te d by our Arnbaffadors on the Continent in the laR dif patehes.—Some alien, that the King of PrufGa has made a declaration, and iffued correfponding orders, that no French troops (hall be allowed to march either into Hanover or Holland.—Others maintain, that our Minifter at Berlin has not been able to commu nicate any intelligence calculated to induce the flight eft hope that his Pru(Ban Majefly will aa direaly or ' indirealy againll France. The former of there re. ports is ve►y generally credited among the friends elf Minifters, who affert that the co-operation of Fru& stay Aill be expeaed by the Allies. Our duty, as impartial recorders of every faa that ' reaches our knowledge, makes it neceffary to Rate that there is a letter in town from Cclonel PlUll gar , to his mother, Lady FINGALL, Rating that "an Armillioe had takers place, for a few day, estip+ to bory the dead."—Colonel PLusit sr is in the Aufhian &Twee, and it might be prefumed ought to be well informed on a paint of this kind. It is trot believed, however. by Knifters, that his infect oration is correa.—Poffibly the Army may not bays boa informed of the real Rate of affairs. • The Procetnon to St. Paul's this day. paling a tribute of refpea to the Remains of Lord Net.sow, was folemn and ienpreffive. The Ceremonial not being concluded when our Paper was put to prefs, we mutt defer our general account of the proceedings till to-morrow. Since writing the above, one of the Harnbargh Mails arrived at the General Poll-Offset ; but, from the great avidity of all ranks of perfons to fee the Funeral Proeeffion to St. Paul's, neither the Letters 'tor the Printed Journals were delivered out when this ?apes. went to prefs. HAMBURGH MAIL. After our Paper was at Preis, a Hamburgh Mail arrived I the following are the aloft important Ar ticles it contains : HANOVER, DEC. si. tetterday, at two in the afternoon, between 5 and boo men of the Garrifon of Hameln, with force pieces ti cannon, marched towards Springen. The snell and Ruffians on the fird intelligence of this, movement, marched to meet them, which gave oc caGonto a very obffinate action between Hoehmuhlen and Altenhagen, which ended entirely in favour of the Ruffians and Englifb. The French had a number of men killed and wounded ; two hundred were made prifoners, and two pieces of cannon taken.— They were obliged, towards evening, to retreat to avoid being entirely cut off from Hameln. The two pices of cannon and the prifoners were brought here today. BRESLAW, DEC. H. It 4 grated in our Gazette, that the Armiflice which has been concluded in Moravia, has been pro longed to the end of March. MUNICH, DEC. is. We are *Mired that the peace with Auflria may be not only cordidered as concluded, but that there will be an offenfive and defenfive alliance between the two Powers. FRONTIERS OF SILESIA, DEC. 76.

The intelligence that a pcace between Au,: tria and France may loon be be expeted to be figned at Nicollburg is confirmed from every quarter, and the confequence will be, that the Continen ta war will fpread no farther, and that Nei* will maintain her fyßem of neutrality with refpett to the North of Germany. The Pruffian Plenipotentiaries will alfo negotiate with the Emperor Navotroti, to drat a General Peace, under the mediation of Pruf fia. The armiftice concluded at Auflerlitz on the.6th, will foon be extended to the refpative troops in V. taut countries.

The whole arrived at the Weilern gate, in fuceeffion, about eleven o'clock, and were fet down in order at the Governor's houfe: the carriages as they delivered the company wheeling off round the green area in front of the building, and out at the Earl gate, proceeding by order back to town.and to await the arrival of their owners in Palace yard, Weliminfier. The Life Guards alto, who had arrived at a much ea tier hour in the !morning, were polled at the gates; and perfons not connefted with the ceremony were not permitted to enter, the better to avoid all interrup tion and embarraffrnent. At twelve the whole of the perfons appointed to attend the ceremonial being arrived, a gun was fired from one of the River Pencil)les boAtc, as the appoin ted fignal for an immediate affernblage in the Great Painted Chamber, whence the corpfe was to be con veyed., A lane of Guards, confining of the Greenwich and Deptford Volunteers, was formed acrofs the grafs-plat betweeen the houfes of the Governor and Deputy Governor, to the Northern gate, opening to the River ; another lane was alfo formed by the River Fencibles, armed with their !words and pikes, from the Volunteer line to the entrance of the Paint ed Chamber, through which the corpfe and its atten dants moved in proceffion to the barges on the River appointed to receive them. At half pail twelve precifely the proceffinn began to move forwards, palling through the lines of Volun teers who received it with prefented arms.

The whole paired onward through the North gate down the Reps, to the River fide, along the caufe way, and to the barges, the drums and trumpets halting, and continuing to play. The body being placed on board the State Barge, the fevers' Members of the Proceffion took their Places on board their appointed barges, when the Lord Mayor of London, Corporation, &c. proceed ed from the Painted Chamber, uncovered, to the Ri ver fide, and went on board their relpe&ive barges, appropriately decorated for this folemn occalion, the great bell over the fouth call colonade chiming a its. neral peal the whole time. The whole then, in order, rowed round the (tern of Sir Sidney Smith's little !loop, moored off the Hofpital ; and, with the flood tide in their favour, though the wind againft them, proceeded up the River for London, in the order Rated in our paper of yellerday ; the boats of the River Fencibles firing minute guns the whole way to Whitehall (lairs, where the procellion arrived preeifely at half part three. The whole of the boats then drew up, and formed columns, the order of a crefcent, coffer ing the barge with the body to fhoot ahead, and pals the (lairs tome Mort diftance ; it then tacked, and brought to at the landing place, when the cof fin was landed, and received with military honours, under a fable canopy, decorated with the Armorial Infignia of the deceared, &c. fent from the Admi ralty for its reception. The di*rent Members of the Procefflon then land• ed in thew order, formed in Whitehall-yard, in the fame arrangement in which they proceeded from Greenwich Hofpital to the embarking plAce, and then moved forward towards the Admiralty, where a clear and estenfive are' was kept, by parties of the military, half( and font ; and the whole entered, in a fokmn pace, the Admiralty gates, when the body I was conveyed into the apartment inn the I eft of ti Great Hall, called the Captain's - Room, whr re the body was placed, and which was lighted with forty fix wax lights fitted in (comes ; and, on either fide the coffin, were placed fix Loge wax candles. On the trip of the coffin was placed the Gannet and Cufhiun. The Rev.

Although it was underßood that no perfon was to view the body lying in Rate, yet the public c.rri• ofity WAS fo great, that cony door leading 0 the Admiralty was befieged at an early hoot. hircy perfons Raid till a late hour lag night, without Inc ceeding in their °Neel A Captain's Guard of the Invalids frvm the Tower was flationed laa night in the AJmiralty Office. The Loan Marna, Corporation, etc. did not land at Whitehall•flairs, but proceeded in their barges to Palace-yard (lairs, where they landed, and rtturned in their carriages to the 'City. The brats of the River Fencibles, and others of the Proceftion, except the City barges, returned in order with the tide down flream, firing minute guns the whole way; and, by 6 o'clock, the ftreets were quite cleat of the populace. THE SPECTATORS. The concourfe yeflerday, on both fides of the ver, and in every avenue to it, from Greenwich to Wellminfter Bridge, was immenfe; and their con• dud every where marked their affetlion for the de- f 1 parted Hero. The windows, as well as the flreets, round Whitehall, were crowded, and even the front wall of the Admiralty, and the roofs of the houfes were crowded with fpeetators. Diet y fhip and boat on the River, even to the fmallea craft that could thew a flag, &earner, or other naval emblem, dif.. played it no the occafion. The COSIt d'eril of the Aqua. lit Proceflion bad a grand effell. As the Proceffion came abreall of the Tower, the Tower guns fired. It advanced mnre rapidly than was expelled. At three o'clock it arrived at Black friar's Bridge, and as it came alongfide the Temple Gardens, the Temple Volunteers, who were drawn up in the Garden‘, fainted it as it paged. Abnut a quarter pet three the proceMon reached Whitehall, and that became the centre of atiraeli..n. The greater part of the crowd, however, upon the i r arri val there, was much difappointed. They found the gates ffint, and military tlatinned at diem to prevent intrufion—the Court yard having been previoufly filled with company. The fpedaors here confilled chiefly of Nobility and Gentry in their carriage,— None were admitted without tickets. At thirty five minutes pall three, the body was landed, and car. tied on a bier to the Admitalty. During this opts s.atinn, the King's ‘ Admiralty's, Lord Mayor'r, and City's barges, lay upon their oars. A party of the Horfe Gourds were on duty to clear the way, and a double line of foot drawn frnm Whitehall to the Admirahy, forming a lane for the body to pars through. When the Proeeffion came oppnfite the Horfe Guardr, the multitude appeared deeply ace ted by the folernnity of the fcene, the mournful found of the mufic, and the awful report of the minute guns, which continued to fire until four o'clock.— The number of I - pc/taws of this part of the Procef fion was insmenfe. The tops of all the buildings from Charing Crofs to the Treafury, including the Horfe Guards and the Admiralty, were covered with men and womenonany of them elegantly dreffed. The crowd and number of carriages was fo great in this quarter, the areet remained blocked up nearly an hour after the body was depofited in the Admi ralty, and the proceffinn had clofed. The carriages were locked in each other, and many of them re- . eeived much injury in their wheels and pannels. l t The weather was unpromifinn in the morning, dull, heavy, and wet ;it cleared, however ' at eleven, .. and gave the full difplay of the majeftie Proceffinn upon the water ; but at the tinge of the landing of the body, and the Proctffion frum Whitehall, the thy was fuddenly overeat/, and a dreadful ftorm of hail p and rain came on, which hired fractal minutes.— ), During the Ileum, the people on the tops ref the houfes were in great danger. It was with great &fa. A culty many of them effected their efeape. A lady, who was on the top of the Horfe Guards, was in the moft imminent peril, and mutt have been blown s \ down, had not a gentleman, at the rifle of his life, run to her Affiliance. Many accidents took place upon the water, and in the flews, during the proo• A beat, having on board four perfons, funk off Lem vj - belt ; and, notwithtlanding the exertions of perform • in other boats, three of them perifhed.

She was walk ing acrofs a plank between two lighters, which gave • way at one end, and precipitated her into the water. —The bodies were not found.
