LIFE OF LORD NELSON.—By the Reverend J. S. CLARKE, and J. M'ARTHUR, Esq.—From the uncommon intersmt excited by this National Work, and the nu merous inquiries made respecting it, the Editors feel it incumbent on them to describe its Progress, and to state the circumstances which have retarded its publication. The Paintings, consisting of eleven, for the larger Plates, exclusive of those for the Vignettes, fice. have been long since finished by Mr. West, Mr. Westall, and Mr. Pocock : and the Engravings, by Messrs. Heath, Fittler, Smith, Neagle, Raimbach, Golding, &c. are in so forward a state, that the greater part of them will very shortly be submitted, with the paintings, to the inspection of the Public. Of . the literary part of the undertaking, a considerable portion had been completely prepared—much is already printed, and Mr. Beitslefs presses are again regularly employed upon it ; but amidst the continual communication of new and important documents, including a great number of the Noble Admiral's letters, derived from the kindness of different officers returned front different stations, who had enjoyed his friendship, and other authentic sources, much care and attention became necessary to their proper introduction, and frequent interruptions of the printing hive been unavoidable. As, however, the most unremitting diligence conti nues to be exerted by the Editors, It is confidently hoped, that the publication will take plate in the course of very few months, probably in June next. The Work will form one magnificent quarto volume, price six guineas, or, with proof impressions, eight guineas. Orders are received by Messrs. Cedeil and Davies, Strand, and Mr. Mil ler, Albemarle-street. An alphabetical List of Names, with the data of orders (according to which the Copies will be faithfully delivered,) will be printed and annexed to the Volume, and books containing the orders already received, including a very considerable proportion of the most distinguished names in the United Kingdom, may now be seen at the Publishers, as above.

Bensley and Davison, on s fine -wove Royal Paper, in Octavo, and will be published in monthly Parts, price Six Shillings each, five of which will foam a Volume. The first Part will appear on the Ist of March. AS an undertaking of so extensive a nature, it is impossible to ascertain the exact quantity in which the whole will be com prised—the Public can only be assured, that it will not exceed Ten Volumes ; and, probably, not more than Eight or Nine. 111. In the course of Publication, there will be introduced from Three to Four Hundred elegant Engravings by the first h er s from original Drawings by Edwards, Farey, jun. sad others.

DECLARATION OF PRUSSIA AGAINST ENGLAND. " The King being obliged, by the 27th Article of the Trusty of Peace of concluckd on the 9th of July, 1807, to ahnt, without exceptioa, the 1 3 ;ussian perts and states artinst the trade and navigation of England, as long as the present war lasted be tween England and France, 116 Vajesty has not hesitated to take progressively the most appropriate measures to fulfil his engage ments. " In directing these measures, his Majesty did not discurble the prejudice and loss which would result to the commerce of 14 dominion , , in general, and that of his subjects, who, by a long series of misfortunes, have acquired need rights to his paternal so licitude and benevolence; but his Majesty yielded to the conso latory hope, that the mediation offered by Russia to England, by accelerating the return of a definitive Peace betvieen Great Britain and France, would soon bring about an order of things more con genial to the particu!ar interests of each Power. " The King has been deceived in his just expectation ; the events that have taken place since, and which are too well known - to render it necessary to recapitulate them, far from bringing the so much desired period of general peace nearer, have only placed it at a greater distance. tt All communication is broken off between Russia ar.d England. The declaration of his Majesty the Emperor of all this Russias, published on the 86th of October, proves that there is no longer any relation between those two Powers. His Prussian Majesty, intimately connected by all his relations with tide cause and aystem of the Continental neighbouring and friendly Powers, has no other rules of conduct than his duties founded upon the interest of his States, and the e•dig...tion contracted by a solemn Treaty. " onformably to these principles, his Majesty, setting aside those considerations which h.: had hitherto respected, In the vain hope for a speedy general pacification; and having refused, since the mission of Lord Hutchinson, to receive at hit Court any Eng lish Diplomatic Agent, has just ordered his Legation at London to quit England as soon as possible, and return to the Continent. " His Majesty the King of Prussia, in making known the re solutions which his engagements and the interest of his monarchy impose upon him as a duty, declares by these presents, that, till the restoration of, a definitive Peace between the two belligerent Powers, there shall be no relation between Prussia and England. " Memel, Dee. 1, 1807." " FREDERICK WILLIAM." ROYAL DECREE. Considering that every European nation ought to co-operate w►th all its m►ght to the triumph of the cause of the Continent, in a contest which wilt not be of long dnration, and whose result is not• doubfful: Considering that our particular duty, as well as the dearest interests of our people command us to accede in all points to the deiires of his Majesty the Emperor of the French, our illustrious Brother, and even to sur pass his hopes : Considering that the indemnity and relief which our kingdom has a right to demand and expect, depend entirely upon the powerful intervention oT France Considering, in fine, that however great the sacri fices hitherto made by this country may be, and how ever painful its situation, both under the relations of commerce and those of finance, it is of much greater interest to dissipate all the doubts that might exist with respect to our intentions, and to prove to Europe, in the most signal manner, our attachment, and that of our people to the common cause ; have decreed, and do decree as follows : ART. I. From the publication of the present decree, all the ports of our kingdom shall be shut against all ships, whatever be their denomination. Those only are excepted from this disposi tion (and provisionally till a new order), of which mention is made in the second article. Armed ships of.our Allies are not included in the exclusion directed by the preceding Article.. They may enter and quit our ports, and bring in their prizes, by conforming to tho ordnnnances issued relative to the entrance and departure of ships of war. 111. Ships of the Allies or Neutral Powers, which may enter our ports to avoid the danger of the sea, shall have no communication with the interior of our kingdom. They shall be subject to qua rantine, and be under the most severe superintendance. The Commandant of the Port shall make them put to sea as soon as the weather shall permit. IV. Fishing-boats are under the direct superintendance of the Civil and Military Authorities upon the coast. These Authori ties shall take care, on their responsibility, that no communication take place, by means of the fishermen, with the enemy's ships and other ships. To that end, there shall be placed as a sentinel a sol dier on board each fishing-boat. On the return of the boat, the sentinel shall make his report of what has passed during the fishery, contrary to the dispositions of the present decree, and the owner of the boat and crew shall be prosecuted with all the rigour of t h e laws.—Gwen at Utrecht, tsd January. (Signed) LOUIS. The Dutch official Gazette contains a very strong Don Joseph Mana de Melo, Titular Bishop of Al galva, Inquisitor-General in the Kingdom, Mem ber of her Majesty's Council, and her Confessor. To all the Faithful of the Holy Church, Health, Peace, and the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour and God. " The place of Inquisitor-General of this Kingdom, which we occupy, (unworthy of it as we are), the holy Episcopal character with which we are invested, the examplary zeal with which the most eminent and venerable Cardinal Patriarch of Lisbon has just recommended with so touching an unction, in his last pastoral letter, the preservation of tranquillity, peace, and Christian union, necessnry in all times, and above all in the present; all these con siderations imposed upon us the duty of concurring on our side, and as far as we can, in a salutary object, and without which we cannot hope for any happiness, neither upon earth nor (which ought more to concern us) in the life to come. We address them to all the Faithful of the Holy Church, to the Inhabitants of this City and Kingdom ; we conjure them to be astentive and docile to the wise and pacific instructions of their venerable father and pas tor, in a circumstance which concerns their present fate and their eternal happine 3. We can do no hing better than to recal to them the paterwil advice of that great Prelate. Let them consider this situation In which we are, the favours 'Aids the Divine GOOD. Ness has heaped upon us, in the midst of our tribulations: them bless GOD in all flings ; let them adore, with an humble and contrite heart, the utable decrees of PROVIDENCI, and let them be grateful for the innumerable benefits we have recei ved from his all-powerful hand. " Let us reckon amongst these signal benefits, the peace and gaod order which have reigned and do reign in this kingdom since a great army has come to our succour. We are certain of, our happiness, if we know haw to profit by it : we enjoy equal secu rity!) ,th in our hous-,s and out. " I.et us not forget that we owe these advantages fo the zeal and activity - of the General in Chief who commands us, and whose virtues we have long known ; that tae army which is in the midst of us is that of his Majesty the Emperor of the French and King of Italy, Napoleon the Great; that that Monarch has been sent ' by Gon to protect religion and render people happy ; that he will rur upon us the blessings of peace, if we love each other with fra ternal charity—that by that m - tans Religion and its Ministers will always be respected, and that in fine we shall enjoy all sorts of happiness if we shew ourselves worthy of such great protection. It is thus that we ought to conduct ourselves to accomplish faithfully the precepts of the Lord, who commands us to obey power, not through fear, but through a duty of conscience. " Let us incessantly have before our eyes the touching expecta- • dons which the venerable Pastor of this City and Diocese has ad dressed to his flock, and unite them in Charity, and to obtain peace and repose, of which we have so much need; and because that object is of the greatest importance, even for the preservation of the purity of our faith, we conjure all the Deputies of the Council General of Inquisitions, and other Ministers of the Half Office, to unite their zeal to ours to maintain and consolidate the public tranquillity. " We recommend it, especially to all the religious in general, and to each in particular, to give in all circumstances the example of perfect submission, as it becomes the Ministers of a Gott of Peace, who offer daily the sacrifice of propitiation, and who ought to be models of evangelical perfection to the people. Wo exhort them to meal without ceasing the faithful to their duties, and above all to inspress them with this truth, that there never can be too much peace and union. And in order that our Father may recall all the Tribunals of Inquisition in the kingdom, we have caused it to be stuck up and published in the churches of our district, in the accustomed form.

HAMBURGH, JAN. 20. The Prussian Officers who are unemployed have been put on half f pay. A commission, consisting of • 'a Major, two Captains, and tiiree Lieutenants, has been appointed for each regiment. All the Officers of the corps must present themselves individually; and each, after having given his word of honour, must, un der pain of being broke, declare where he has resided during the war, till he was made prisoner; and like wise denounce those of his comrades, if he knows any who have neglected their duty. Concealment of faults is to be pnnished as a perjury. The Gene rals must present themselves before anothar commis sion, in which the King's brothers will Piave a seat. Every subaltern Officer is authorized to make well founded complaints against the General under whom he has served, and even against any other. The Generals Wartensleben and Muffling have given in their resignation The latter retires on a pension. Several other Generals have been dismissed. In future, promotions will not be granted, according to seniority, higher than the rank of a Captain. LISBON, JULY Is. Tavern-keepers are ordered not to receive soldiers after seven o'clock at night.
