FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARIS, JANUARY ti. The Russian fleet is fitting at Cronstadt with great activity ; 806.r0w-gallies are to tollow it when it sails for Copenhagen ; there are numerous corps of troops to be embarked for that place. Strong batteries are erecting in the front of the harbours of Revel and Cronstadt. The country of Hanover has been plunged into mourning, by the recent loss of a British ship, with nearly a thousand soldiers of the Hanoverian Legion on board. That vessel was to have gone from Yar mouth to Portsmouth.--. The officers, seeing the dan ger of the navigation, requested of the Ministers to suffer them to march by land ; but the English Go vernment, who treat men like vile merchandize, in order to save a few guineas, insisted on the execution of its first orders. The unfortunate Hanoverians, who had a presentiment of their fate, were, a few minutes after the arrival of that barbarous order, swallowed up by the ocean.—Menitevr, Jan. 17. Bills of Exchange, to the amount of three millions of Franks, have been lately drawn by the Govern ment of tbs Isle of France on the Imperial Treasury at Paris. . The Emperor is making arrangements for improve ment of his dock-yards ' • there are to be 18 companies of about 277 men each, and to be divided in sub-di visions of 18. It is in contemplation, in France, to plant and cul tivate the cotton-tree in the Southern provinces of that country. The Prince Royal of Denmark has given three thousand, and the Princess his wife, has given two thousand rix dollars, in aid of the persons whose houses were burned by the attack on Copenhagen. Armand Victor Le Chevalier, formerly a Chief of the Chouans, and pardoned, was tried by a Court Martial at Paris, on the 9th instant, and sentenced to suffer death, for having assembled an. armed force last June, of which he constituted himself the Chief. The Swedish Diet is convoked, and the greatest discontent reigns in that kingdom. The is Poli. tics are loudly abused. The public opinion in Sweat" is strongly pronounced in favour of the ancient con nections with France ; they remember that in all times, but particularly in the reign of Gustavus Adolphus, it procured a great extension of territory, and great influence amongst foreign Courts. There is an appearance of a war between that cotottry and Russia, the issue of which is not to be doubted. The Russian corps assembled on the 'frontiers of Swedish Finland continue to receive reinforcements. In Swabia, 69,828 permu have been vaccinated with the happiest effect.

A great number of horses, and cattle oi l in the stalls of the dealers, were drowned. Th lamity was still more aggravated by of:l:istn. which rendered it necessary, as long as the ed, and no rain fell, to fetch rain water from IN bourgh, what fresh water they before had Wi l l spoiled by the salt water.
