Jw.v 30.—According to intelligence from Ma mice, his Majesty reviewed a part of his troops the day be fore yesterday. In the afternoon the Emperor took a drive with the Empress on the right bank of the Rhine; his Majesty returned in the evening to the left bail of that river. The only Generals who ac companied his Majesty were Caffarelli and Count Lobaii, his Aides de Camp. We have still here a considerable park of artillery. PARIS, AUGUSt s. We are assured that his Majesty the Emperor has left Mayence on his return to Dresden, and that her Majesty the Empress Queen and Regent will, in a few days, return to St. Cloud. Her Majesty, it is said, will return .by Coblentz, Cologne, Aix-la-Chapelle, and Brussels. AUGUST 4.—His Excellency the Duke of Abrantes tiled some days ago in the bosom of his family, in the department of Cote cl'clr. BERLIN, JULY 40. Prince Gagann has arrived here from head.quar. ters, General Count Walmoden froni Kryritz, Lnrd Chatham from Colberg, the Count Marshal de Groe ben from Reichenbach, and several English of dis tinction. , - VIENNA, JULY Si, .. We have received the agreeable intelligence, that the Congress will open at Prague in the course of this week. • DRESPAN. JULY 18. The grand French army has increased in a ratio almost incnneeivahle. The Imperial Guard of itself alone forms a lormi,iable army ; it is composed of thirty-tour regiments, of which thirty•tvyo has three battalions, and its park of artillery comprehends nearly 200 pieces. fits Majesty the Emperor continues to enjoy the most pertrct health. _ We learn that Messrs. Rayneval, Lagard, and Cabre, will be attached to the mission at Prague. To-day the Emperor mounted on horseback * not;• withstanding the continual rain, to review. Yesterday his Majesty reviewed a brigade of Saxon cavalry newly formed, a battery of artillery, and a detachment of Grenadiers. He was perfectly satisfied with the state of discipline, and good appearance of these troops. • JULY 23.—1 t is certain that the CoOnt de Nat-- bonne, sent from France, on the 17th presented at Prague his credentials in quality of Leputy to the Congress. The Duke of Vicenza is still at Dresden. His Majesty the• Emperor left this on the 20th ; inspected a part of the army in the neighbourhood of Ltackau, and returned here i.. the night between the 21st and 22d instant. BRUNSWICK, JULY 20. Count de Bernstorff, Minister Plenipotentiary from Denmark to the Court of Vienna, will, it is said, be charged to represent that Power at the Congress.— The day of his der:mare is not fined. Some persons think that Baron de Rosenkranz, Minister for Fo reign Affairs, will also proceed to Prague to discuss the interests of his ,Sovereign, The English have not yet attacked Denmark, their . vessels sail without approaching too near the shore ; they have established cruisers in the neighbourhood of the Isles, but the Danes are disposed to give them a vigorous reception. Under their eyes, and in spite of their care, vessels laden with corn daily depart for Norway, and successftilly arrive at their destina tion. Prince Christian, Governor-General of Nor way, has assembled a very numerous army, with which he intends attempting an invasion into Wes tern Sweden, if the Swedish Government persists in as iniquitous pretensions. BAYRZUTH, JULY 15. According to the latest intelligence received from Prague, the preparations for the Congress are actively continued. Every day persons attached to the Mini sters of the different Powers are seen to arrive.— Lodgings become very scarce. All the-great Lords from Bohemia come to inhabit their hotels, in order to be witnesses of the great interests about to be dis cussed. M. de Metternich, Austrian Minister for Foreign Affairs, left Branders, on the 12th, to proceed to Prague with all his chancellery. Count Marenhue, Minister of State from the King of Saxony, has arrived at Prague, from Dresden ; he made but a short abode there. He went to the waters of Carlsbad, front whence he expects imme diately to return to Prague. Amon Keenigsfels has arrived from Reiclienbach, at ghe . in quality of Setibekaii to the giissuut .

A Telegraphic Message reached the Admiralty at a late hour last night, conveying intelligence of the dtmost importance, and which we shall feel most happy to confirm. The SPARROWHAWE &OW of War is said to have arrived at Plymouth from the Coast of Spain, with iniormation that as assault had been made on St. Selustian's ; that . the FrenCh under Marshal Sour t. had made an attack on the Marquis Wzm.morow, and had been compelled to retire to their original , position with much loss. • The dates of the attack upon St. Sebastian's and of the battle with Somr are not given ; but still we see no reason to doubt the main facts : besides, the last intelligence from the Coast of Spain informed us the storm St. Sebastian's was to take place on the 25th ultimo. Another account states the action with SOULT to have taken place on the 28th. Since our Paper was put to Press, the Plymouth Telegraph has repeated the intelligence in the fol lowing communication : ,4 The Assault of St. Sebastian's was attempted on the 25th, without success. 44 On the 28th Marshal SOULT was repulsed.by Lord WELLINGTON With GREAT LOSE.—The British loss considerable." Two Gottenburgb Mails have arrived since yester day. The continuance of the Armistice renders the intelligence brought by them of comparatively trifling interest. The following are a few extracts from the Journals : " GOTTENBURGH, JULY SO. of General Moreau is still here ; report says, he is to have a command in the Allied Army. Our ac• counts from the opposite shore seem to think, that a further renewal of the Armistice will not take place." PETERSBURGH, JULY 14. The Locust gun-brig, with a transport, has ar rived at Cronstadt from off Dantzic, - to carry powder down there. 66 The General of Cavalry, Baron Bennigsel, has arrived at Warsaw with considerable reinforcements, which he is conducting towards the Allied Army. 66 They write from the Frontiers of Bohemia, that the preparations for war are carried on throughout all the Austrian Monarchy with a vigour and activity of which former wars offer no example. It is not doubted but our Government will take an active part In the war, should not the Armistice bring about a solid and durable peace. According to letters from Vienna, all the garrison have left that Capital, and been replaced by the Burgher Guard, and was, on the 18th July, to have occupied the positions as signed it." " PETERSBURGH, JULY 19. 44 The Commander-in-Chief of the Armies, the General of Infantry Barclay de Tolly, has addressed to the Minister of the Interior a Letter, dated Reich enbach, 20th June, in which, among others, we re mark the following passage I do not consider it superfluous to inform your Excellency that our ar mies are well ; as those of our Ally the King of Prussia, notwithstanding the rapid and painful move ments and operations which they have had to follow, are in the best possible state, and qulte ready to re appear upon the field of honour. 44 If the Armistice does not bring about a solid Peace, we hope, with GOD'S assistance, to put an end, by the force of our arms, to the war, and by that to the calamities which overwhelm the Universe." . • Paris Papers to the sth inst. have been received. They announce the arrival at Prague of Count Nat. BONNE, and the expected arrival ofCAULAINCOMIT (Duke of VICENZA), as Ministers from France.— There must be some mistake, we apprehend, in mat. ing that Lord Chatham had arrived at Berlin, from Colberg. Probably it ought to have been Lord If al/tale, who sailed from Leith a fortnight since for the Continent. The basis of Negotiation, on which the Members who are to compose the Congress at Prague are about to assemble, is reported to be—First, That the French shall retire into their own Territories.—Secondly, That the Independence of Prussia shall be guaran teed—and, lastly, That the PRINCE of ORANGE shall be reinstated in the Stadholdership of Holland. This is spoken of with confidence, as the Status, or tine qua non of the Convention ; on which preliminary treaty; or these express conditions, the Emperor Fitments would alone consent to become a mediator. If, as a fourth article, the liberation of FERDINAND and his Family had been demanded, it would have been but honourable to the character and feelings of the " Grand Pacificator!" It may perhaps be yet pos sible to introduce, by way of addenda, such a stipu lation. The clause would reflect no small portion of credit on the conduct of all parties, and might con tribute to facilitate the object of their deliberations. tVe h*” 'received Cadli riipers to the 18th July.i but they bring us no intelligence of interest. A dis patch from the Spanish General MUliaLth, dafrd heal Pumpkaaa, 29th June. st -mss, that his division had just received orders to enter France. It is stated in letters from the Continent, that there h ire* of Marriage on foot between the CROWN PRINCR of PRUSSIA and a Princess of Austria, sister to the Empress MARIA LOUISA. General MOREAU is arrived at Gottenburgh, and it is naturally supposed that he has come back to Europe on the invitation of Ben.vancyrra. He will, of course, have a command, and come into the field to measure himself against NAPOLEON. Nothing, perhaps, could be conceived more irritating to the French Emperors nor more inauspicious to his affairs than such a rencon tre; for he is well aware of the high name that Mo- Beau bears among the Veterans of the French army. Though perhaps the number of Veterans is small, yet the influence of the few must be felt through all the ranks of the new levies, and the impression will. of course be in proportion ta the weight of their authoriti. The private letters from Gottenburgh state, that General GAITANNEh and some other French Officers of rank, had arrived there with MOREAU, and that the latter was immediately to proceed to the head quarters of the CROWN PRINCE. A letter, dated Washington, June 16, says—Js Mr. Asroa has obtained permission of our and the British Governments to send a ship to Russia, to take out and bring home a cargo, on condition that he takes out General MOREAU, who is to have the command of the French prisoners and other French in Russia, which men he is to organize, and join BERNADOTTE against France." Yesterday we laid before our Readers some most interesting intelligence 'from America, received by the way of Liverpool ; and to-day, in consequence of two arrivals in the Clyde,. we are enabled to con. tinue the series of intelligence from that quarter, where the British arms continue to triumph. The Britannia, STERRAT, from Quebec, and the Broke, Femousom, from Halifax, have arrived at Greenock. By these vessels we have Halifax Papers to the 17th ult. and Quebec Journals to the 2i July. Sir J. Ye() has gained the complete ascendancy on the Lakes. The late American frigate Chesapeake has been fitted for sea at Halifax, and the command given to Cap tain GORDOX, late of the Rattler sloop of war. By the most recent advices from Kingston, in Upper Canada, it appears that General VINCENT continued in hii position at Burlington Bay, but had advanced parties within a few miles of Fort George. Offen sive operations were expected to be resumed about the end of June. " QUEBEC, JULY 1. 4i We have received no accounts of any irripartant event in Upper Canada, since Thursday last. The latest dates from Kingston are of the 26th ultimo.— According to the accounts received Acre, General Vincent continued in his position at Burlington Bay, with parties advanced to within twelve miles of Fort George. The enemy had concentrated at . Fort George, in number, it is said,"about 5000, and were entrenching themselves. General de Rottenburg would arrive at General Vincent's position about the 25th, when it was expected that offensive operations would be resumed. JaMes Yea Wag • , crui zing on th e L a k e . W e hear nothing of the st a te of -preparation of the ene my's new ship at Sacket's Harbour. The fact of her rigging being destroyed at the time of our attack on that place is fully confirmed. •A new brig will soon be is readiness at Kingston." 4, MONTREAL, JUNE it 44 After the brillant affair of the 6th instant, Major Evans was ordered to take the command of the ad vanced posts, which he most readily accepted. In the four succeeding days, that gallant Officer drove the enemy to within twelve miles of Fort George, seizing all their camp equipage, &c. and put them totally to the route, making seventy prisoners, besides officers. General Lewis, the Commander-in-Chief, escaped, but his fine steed was taken, and was in possession of the brave Evans, whose force was not a tenth of the enemy's. Sir J. L. Yeo intercepted the American craft on the Lake ; took and destroyed the whole, which co-operated on the expedition to Forty mile Creek. in a word, never was discomfiture so complete. The Yankees have abandoned Fort Erie and Chippawa, blowing up the works, and have all concentrated at Fort George to the number of 6000, starved and diseased wretches, dying to the number of fifty per day, of a dy senter y and other maladies, incident to an American mob army. 46 JUNE 26.—Letters have been received from Kingston . of the 22d instant. A friend has politely favoured us with the following sketch of Commodore Sir J. L. Yeo's cruize, from which he had not re turned by last account. After leaving Kingston, he made over for Oswego, where he could effect no thing. He afterwards steered to the village of Great Sodus, and sent a flag, demanding the public stores, which was refused. In consequence, he landed a body of troops, 4nd took the whole, consisting of several hundred barrels of pork and flour, and burnt the buidings. The Commodore delivered all the provisions to General Vincent, near Forty-Mile Creek. In the affair our loss was one serjeant and four pri vates of the Royals killed. " Wednesday last, arrived in this eity from Up- I per Canada, Major-General Sir Roger H. Sbeaffe. 4. The same day, about 126 prisoners, taken at Forty -mile Creek, by General Vincent. 44 We are informed that the guns for the new fri gate lately launched at Sackett's Harbour, are on board an Onoadago kiyer Craft at Oswego ; bte, in too tboal water to be gol at, and too far up. While these are land locked we shall continue superior on the Lake for some time. " On Lake Erie, near Buffaloe, the . f lmericans have launched two stoat schooners, %%Ilk!! they boast S will render them superior oa that Lake." NATAL mrsLiictives. ` EAST -M1:44 SHIPPING.
