LONDON: We find by two Haniburgh Mails which have ar , elved, that the Danes are sending two Ambassadors to Vienna, and that the Danish and Prussian Courts are on remarkable good terms. A treaty of peace between Prussia and Denmark was signed at Berlin 'on the 25th ult. By the latest advices from Copen hagen, it appears that Prince CHRISTIAN was ex pected there in a few days. BERNADOTTE is still talking of his being destined to command the Nor wegians, and they are still giving him to understand, as much as is in their power, how unwilling they are to submit to this sort of destiny. The Norwegian flotilla has been attempting to get out under the Danish flag, and the popular tumults continue. fight by these Mails, and under the .gh, Aug. 18, relieves us from any the nomination of Count ROMAN.. the Congress at Vienna. It states has written a most flattering let ter, granting his request to retire, on, health. Count NESSELRORE IHIS i'euilk of the Foreign Department.

On the 13th instant, the body of Prince Ponia towski was deposited, with all due ceremony, in the chapel at Lowicz, twelve German miles from this city. Lowicz formerly belonged to Marshal Da voust, but has been long since confiscated, with all the estates attached to it. The Russian Supreme Council here has ordered the Prefect to prepare a proper quantity of forage for the horses belonging to the travelling equipages of his Majesty the Emperor and Prince Constantine, for which a sum of 60,000 florins is appointed from the Russian Treasury. The Palace of Prince Po. niatowski is putting in order for the reception of the Grand Duke. It k not yet known whether , General Kosciusko will return to his country. Sr. rETERSBURGH, AUG. 14.—0 n the day before yesterday, the Imperial Foot Guards made their solemn entry through the newly-erected triumphant gate. The Emperor, with the Grand Dukes Mi chael and Nicolas, rode to meet them; in the evening the city was finely illuminated. The Empress-Mother gave, on the 10th, a splen did fate at Pawlosk, to celebrate the return of the Emperor. Under a triumphant arch hung crowns of oak, olive, and laurel.. The Empress took the laurel crown.encl placed it on the head of her august son.

The writer declares, that the:Saxelits'4 . - spise all such ill-founded reports which the bieisings , of the King's Government, and the love of hitt Ob.d jects fully contradict ; but that it is impossible %pass over in silence an article in the Rhenish 111+4, which is evidently dictated by dark maliciOand shameless calumny, in order to give the Saxons a false idea of their Sovereign. This is the article which de clares that the. King betrayed to Bonaparte the plan Communicated to him in confidence by Austrip, and , that . he was promised, for this treachery, the Merck of gritedes_thurg and • part of Bohemia.

LusEcw, AUG. 29.—A Danish Courier has passed through here to Copenhagen, with the Treaty of Peace between Prussia and Denmark, signed at Ber lin on the 25th, ,by Prince Hardenberg for Prussia, and Count Hardenberg lieventlow for Denmark. In the absence of official information on the sub- . ject of the negociations at Ghent, it is not perhaps to be wondered at, that the most contradictory state. meats should be circulated. 2ne of these, we think, needs ohly he mentioned, to 2lraw upon the authors of it no small portion of ridicule. It is stated, that the negociators had been quarrelling in a manner very unlike the Representatives of great nations, and that the business they had been deputed to settle, had been suspended from the 25th of August to the • 3d Sept., to give place to mutual interchanges of apo logies for their irritability. Another account adds, that subsequent to the 27th ult., written proposals have been transmitted, through the medium of the British Commissioners, to this Go vernment from the American Plenipotentiaries, and which were enclosed in the dispatches that were received on Monday, and on which Ministera .. on y x the same day deliberated. These proposals wele v an endeavour, on the part of the Republican Agents to renew the suspended Negociation, and that they con tain an accommodating offer, but coupled with the in- Idispensible condition, that an armistice, both by an and land, should be conceded. To this condition, it is asserted, that the Cabinet would not assent, and in that situation of things it is supposed that the I attempt to prevent the rupture had been ineffectual, land that the proceedings at Ghent are in consequence I wholly discontinued. We repeat, that these are unauthenticited statements, which should be received with a Propprtionate degree of caution. .=•11 VON WICHMAN, in his picture of the Russian Mo narchy„ states its size in relation' to other countries as follows :—Russia is 28 times larger than France, 29 times larger than Austria, 38 times larger than Swe den, 82 times larger than the Rhenish Confederation, 5 times larger than the TorkiihEimpire, 4 times larger than China, 7 times larger than.Persia l and 39 times larger than Japan. . . 1 N NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. • • ' and sailed for the River the Mary • Mardi, M' Larey, from Honda , from St. Domingo, and about not known.—Sailed his Majesty's Came down from the River the Nestor, Pilot, Ble-sing, and Marshal Wellington transports, land sailed again for Quebec.

'An article from Bayonne, in Me" Paris Papers, states a curious fact, .that the bridge of Yrun, over the'Bidassms, had been destroyed by).dider of the Spanish Government, whose object was supposed to be to prevent all communication with France. Mention is made in a book, of a more remarks: ble person than Joanna Southcott, but who laid nd claim to miracles :—" Ellin Ellis, of Beaumaris, in Angleseyi aged 72, was brought to bed May . 10th, ' 1776: she had been married 46 years, and her eldest was 45 years old." She had not ha d a child for 25 years before." • The son of a poor woman in •Holloway, near , Bath (a fine boy, about four years 'of age). had for a considerable time past complain( d of violent pains in the chest, which, notwithstai.ding many reme lie being resorted to, increased to such a deg ea that he died a few days since, in great. agony. 11is.body ; was opened, and near the heart was found a brass ring, which it is supposed the poor chid had acci- 1 dentally swallowed, and thereby produced the great i torments lie must have been afflicted with previous to, his premature death„ ItxmAtte.tai.E ACCIDENT OP A Houst.—Some evenings anterior to the close of Vauxhall Gardens for the season, as the carriage of Lord Ilotham was passing along the turnpike, at some distance from them a chaise or chaise-cart, lashed furiously against the off-horse, and, as it afterwards appeared, for, I at the moment, the coachman took no notice of it, drove one of the shafts through his ribs. The horse came home, tvithout much apparent pain, and Mr. Powi', a very able veterinary practitioner, being sent for, treated him with his usual skill and ability, but without success ; for, in the course of four days after the accident, the animal dropped down suddenly, dead. On opening the body, it appeared the shaft, after being driven through the ribs by a concussion that seems to have been made at full gallop, passed above the lungs, and Perforating the diaphragm, entered the cavity of the abdomen, from whence, when it was withdrawn, the intestines rushed after it into the chest, and, closing the orifice, prevented the admis sion of the external air, owing to which circum stance, though mortally wounded, the poor beast did his part in dragging the coach home, and was en abled to live until the ,time specified. The conduct. of coachmen, in 19 instances out of 20, when such accidents happen, cannot be too much deprecated, as the death or incurable lameness of 'many a vn laable horse, besides this, is to be ascribed solely to the stupid inadvertency, or incurable obstinacy of the Jehu that drives him 'Nitt el --.4111 . 44, .
