Jut.r 6. Re have received Paris oapers to the 231, and Dutch to the 211th last. The latter are of later date, by two days, than those which announced the battle on the 14h at Friedland ; and yet neitner tlty nor the Paris papers contain any account of the action, on the Passarge, subsequent to the 10th, when the French ■re represented as being before I leilsberg. This silence does not justify a positive conclusion, but it cettainly affords a fair ground to presume that the re sult of the battle of Friedland was not so favoora hie to the French, as it has been represented.— It is also worthy of remark, that an account of the wiling.) , of the French appeared in the Haminirgh Paper of the 20th, and although h 1 Bova:awn received dispatc•ies fr.irn the army on the 22d and 43d, no further details were published as late as the 24th. No accounts whatever have been received by Government upon the sehjea; which is the more strange, is the Admiralty has ordered no less than eight light vessels to cruise in the Baltic, for the express pu-pose of colle.ing and transmitting home the earliest accouats of the events of the war.
