.. -~' FOREIGN INTELLICENCL ' iIAMBURGiI TAPLRS. sEaLly, Kai 2). Fro.: The Telegraph.) 4 , Marshal Mort:er hes sent to General Lichen, Governor of Prussian Pomerania. the following letter : Pietamidorf, May 24,1007, o'clock, P.M. I hasten to inform yuu, that Danizic has just now capitu lated. The (artisan are ptisonors of war. Marshal Lefehrte has this instant signed the capitulation. Our troops enter the plaza thi: day after to-morrow. (Signed) • k.l) MORTIER. • Adviccs from Thorn confirm this intelligence, from which it appe ars that the condns demanded by General Kalkreuth have not been granted. This eireumstaace has probably been the cause of the cap::ulation having been protrafted 24 hours." MAY 30. " Yesterday afternoon, about 5 o'clock, the Cou rier Suzy -ought dispatches to the Governor Gene ral, from 1- Majevy's head quarters at raicken stein, dated . 26, according to which Dantsic capitulated on tl lth. The French troops enter. ed it on the 26th. " The garrison of Weizelmunde is not included in the capitulation. " An English corvette, of 4 .!1. guns, with powder and ball for the garrison of Dantsic, was hoarded and taken on the 19th of May, by a piquet belong. ing to the Paris Infantry." By letters from Trieste of the 12th, it is sated that raw English at Alexandria are under great em lsartsentonts. The Porte, inunediately after Ad miral Duclicrorth's retreat, had ordered considerable detachments of troops to march from Syria to Egypt, to oppose the landing of the English ; but, though they were too late for this service, it is litliev-d the English will not receive reinforcements from Malta and Sicily in time to uppo-,e the force ci.lleoing against them. The death of Elfi Bey is a serious loss to the English; and what TRUSt increase their embarrassment is, the intelli gence brought by an eye-witness, that the Regiment of Emigrants at Malt; was in a state of insurrec tion, having fou„llit several days with the rest of the troops; nor were the insurgents reduced whan this deponent left the island. Letters from klonrpelier inentiln, that, on the lith of May, several bests.

The otter immediately veered and stood off to sea, as did all the other balls. The polacre had prepared to make a rocs kite defence, in ease she bad been boarded. UMW, MAY 30. Since the tSth of May. according to accounts tons sea. the Swelish ships of war in the Baltic have received orders to seize all vzssels bound to Lose. several of which have already nem sent to Yitadt. WARSAW, MAY 25. On the 23d, the Tutkisb Ambassador received dibprtches from the imperial Bead-quarters, relative to an affair which took place between the Turks and Russians, near Ismallow, in which the latter, besides their wounded, lost 1800 men, some standards, and several piece. of cannon. leaving the honour of the vittecy to the Turks. Public notice has been given, that all strangers, not in any office, or who Ann refuse to give Government a sufficient gua rantee of their fidelity, must leave this city in eight days iime. KIM THB The declarations and proposals of the English Government, relative to the proffered mediation of die Austrian Court, are espened with the mew En voy, the Earl of Pembroke. wao aivprow. na• The Russians have passed the Narew at several points, and attacked some of our cantonments on the tight back, which, in consequence of their distance from each other, were nnAble to withstand the mall that pressed upon them. The enemy had, besidesthe Cossacks, who v e Letter esercike.l than ever, and several squaJrons of regular cayslry, 1500 infantry, mid eight pieces of cannon.

A com pany of grenadiers, of the 610 h, being attacked by tilt Russians, the Commandant of the latter, inflated with his superior numbers, advanced with a leek of contempt, and ordered the French Captain to sur render, when the latter, seizing a musket, levelled and shot him dead, exclaiming, I.

Marshal Massena, as we learn. has o b t ained a signal advantage over the enemy, but we have not yet received the details. It seems the whole array is in motion. Yesterday there was a report, that the Russians had made an attack upon the whole line of the right wing under Marshal Massena, but were repulsed with considerable loss. The fifth corps of the army con tinued in paßsuit of the Russians ; and Marshal Mas - sena had given orders. f or the purpose of accelerat ing the march of the army, that all the baggage and disposable articles should be sent into the rear. FROM THE PARIS PAPERS. TTOATItIta OT TURKF.V, MAT S. On the 22,1 of last mout:t , the Turks attacked the camp of the Servians near Nissa ; though the latter did not expeCt this attack, they sustained the shock with great resolution, and even repulsed their ad versaries to the distance of a league. But the Turks having received numerous reinforcements, re t u rned to the charge, and, after a battle, which lasted till night, they obtained a complete viapry. The Servians were driven back nine miles; their loss in this battle amounted to 4,830 killed, 7,235 wounded, and 800 prisoners l besides that of eight pieces of cannon, two standards, 160 muskets, and a great quantity of ammunition. The Turks had 2,480 killed, 5,068 wounded, and 160 prisoners. Ou the night of the 25th of April, a corps of Ser. viani appeared before the fortress of Omura I it was discnvered by the Turkish advanced posts. — Part of the garrison made a sortie during the night, and rushed onervraedly on the Servians. A. great number of the latter, who had advanced to the firs: entrenchments, were precipitated into, the ditches. Their leader, Milo% having cottoned his people, retreated across a valley, where he joined the corps of the army which bad just been defeated near Nissa. Milon, having coacerted with the General in Chief, continued to fly for the purpose of drawing forward the Turks, who were pursuing him. Haw. ling arrived at another valley. he ordered his corn piny to halt, .4r.,1 waited for the enemy, who did not fail to attack him with impetuosity. The other Servian columns advanced unawares, and rushed Lyon the Turks. The latter, being very inferior in number, were obliged to make their retreat, after a very spirited collta. They left 420 killed and wounded on the field; the loss of the Serviaus amounted to i 73 kdied, sad 98 wounded• nastau7on, KAY U. We have just been made acquainted with the fol• lowing order of the day, published on the 19th in- scant, at Schwerin : " The trove in the Government-General of the Hanseatic towns, Hanover, the Duchies of Magde burg and Mecklenburg, are informed, that His Ma. j sty, the Emperor and King, has decided, that they should form the Corps of Observation of the Grand Army, and that the right should be com manded by General Grandjean.

We have received Paris Papers to the gd instant, from which we have made some estraes, but they ----- contain nothing of any interest. We have received the llamburgh Papers to the 3d instant. They state, that the capitulation nt Dantzic was concluded on the 24th ult. but tinder an agreement that it should not be carried into effect until the 26th. On that day the French, as a matter of form, took possession of some of the works, and neat day the place was evacuated with the usual formalities. The delay between the settling ot the terms and their coecution, probably arose from a lingering hope of reltet.— The terms of capitulation h.ta not transpired at Berlin on the 30th, the date of the last accounts from that city. We fear that they are not as fa vourable as report has represented them. A letter from Marshal Moa rtes, so the Governor of Prus sian Pomerania, dated May '4, states that the garaison surrendered prisoners ot war. An article front Warsaw contains some further partienlass of the attack made on the right wing of the French is the middle of the last month, which ap pears to have been more serious than the previous accounts taught us to suppose. An article from I Berlin states, that onr troops in Alexaodria, in Egypt, were in considerable danger, in consequence of the expisled arrival of a considerable forco seat from Syria. We have also received some Dutch and French Papers, the former to the 7th inst.
