The aerostatic journey of Mr. Robertson, to a considerable distance from Petersburg!), was pre. vented front taking place on the 19th of July. The morning was rainy and unfavuurable for the expos rinsent. About noon, the weather cleared up, mod the wind. which, in the morning, had blown to.. wards the land, now blew towards the Baltic. The two aeronauts, nevertheless. ascended at eight o'clock in the evening, from the courtyard of the Academy of the Fins Arts. A strong east wind tarried the balloon with great rapidity towards the Gulph of Finland. where they would have infalli bly petisbed. had they not descended at the mouth of the NMI, about Se paces from the sea. After Mr. Robertson had alighted, he resolved to ascend again by himself, and to proceed across the Culph ; but. as the peasants held the cords of the balloon too tight on one side, the net slipped off, and it was impossible for him to execute his design. The oh lea of this journey, which be has not renounced, is to ascertain the velocity. the distances, the alteration of gases, and the changes which the aeronaut ex periences when he remains for a long time in the air. The intention of these investigations is to perfetl the science of aerostatic's.. and to render it beneficial. The above mentioned ascension was honoured by the presence of His imperial Majesty. auovse 7. M. de Novosiltsof returned to this capital three &Ts since. IANNf OF ?NI MEIN. AVG. 13.

Garnerin, after having made a brilliant ascen sion at the time of the coronation of our august Sovereign, before he quitted Italy, went to Rome, where he was presented to his Holiness, and had the satisfaaion of again seeing the balloon, which he bad launched at Paris, during the festival of the coronation of His Imperial Majesty, and Which, in twenty-two hours, having desceaded within some leagues of Rome, carried them the newt of the ceremony of the coronation. This balloons, as we have been informed by a letter from his 0/linens.* the Cardinal Gonsalvi to M. Garnerin, has been, by His Majesty the Emperor of the French, and King of Italy, presented to the Pope, to be deposited in the Vatican, with an inscription, which records the wonderful rapidity of the passage, and the solemn occasion on which it was launched from Paris, as well as the success of M. Garnerin, who constru4led and launched it. cosise ANTINOP LC, Jury 27. Accounts have been received front the frontiers of Asiatic Turkey, th . at the Russians have gained several considerable vianties, in the course of the present campaign, over the Persians. They have taken the town of F.tivan, and, in general, have re covered all the positions which they had lost during the preceding summer. The advanced posts of the Russians extend now to the frontiers of Natolia. On the contrary, in the territory of this empire, a new theatre of war has been formed, to die dis advantage of the Porte, the Pasha of Toebizond having taken up arms against the troops of the Grand Seignior, anJ become a rebel against his So vereign. The commanders sent against him, and even the late Grand Visier, Jussuph Pasha, now Go vernor of Erzernon, ha►e been able to effeS nothing against him; and the Pasha of Natolia has been de• feated by him. Accordiag to accounts from Corfu, the Russian troops there have been augmented, by means of a half-yearly recruiting, which has been made through all the lonian Wands, to form 31i to 33,000 men; and are daily increased by the accession of many others of the inhabitants, who inlist as volun- The accounts from F.gypt are very unpleasing. Complete anarchy prevails in Cairo. Elphi Bey, who was lately in England, has not been admitted into that capital by the inhabitants. as he had Nattered himself he should be. When he found himself dis appointed in the hope of getting into his hands the 1% ins of the government of Egypt, he commenced A stria blockade of Cairo; and. giving the command of the tsoops before it to another Rey, went himself with a corps of Mamelitkes against Rosetta. with a view to make himself master of that town, and the harbour of Alexandria. It has been observed, that the late transaetions and changes in Italy, have given occasion to a number of consultations in the Divan. and several confe rences with the Ambassadors of Russia a d England. It is. however. understood, th It the Porto will con tinue perfeelly neutral, should a new tear break out in Europe. It is likewise understood, that the Eng lish Ambassador.

Paper, and the , !her London prints, afforded at imperfea view of their contents. app-ared from them, that a ru mour generally prevailed upon the Continent, of an intention to revive the negotiation of M. Norrosttr z.rrr ; but no authority was stated in its support, %virile the acc,smits of military preparations in every part of Europe, tended to throw it into doubt and Discredit. Ulan a more careful pausal, however, of the foreign papers, we have found an authority that fully justifies the rumour. The Haminorgi Coe setponeienka contains, under the head of Ratisbon, August 19dt, the substance of a declaration by the : Austrian imperial Court, transmitted in the begin ning of that month to the COUIt of Berlin and other CourtklkatAish the Court of Vienna laments the failure ars*Worgotintion, and mattes a tender to interpose its gnad olicts, and invites the rerpeaive Courts to resume it. This irgfaciifant article, with some other extrads from the foreign papers, are given in our preceding columns. M. NOVOSILT. so►e returned to St. Petersbnrgh, on the 4th last. A private letter from Dresden, states, that, in the event of a war between Austria and France, the Earason will command the centre of the army, Its Royal klighttesi the Arch-Duke Cris st.ss, the right, and His Royal Highness the Arch•Uuke Jona, the left. Toe report of the breaking up of the camps at Boulogne, and the dismantling of the flotilla in that harbour, which we stated yesterday, has obtained universal credit. For some time past, an inaEtirity has been observed to prevail in that quarter, that did not well accord with the menace of immediate invasion ; and a suspicion began to prevail, that the attention of the enemy was diverted to some other able& It was only within the present week, that this suspicion began to approach certainty in the public mind. The intelligence of the saual break ing up of the camps, was, we believe, first cons municated to Government by Lieutenant Bosse, of the Cow i n cutter, arrived on Wednesday at Deal, from off the French coast. with a' Frog* lugger, her prise•. The lugger was bound frogs Boulogne to Havre. Her crew sU assert. that the French troops upon the coast fie marching to the interior, and that the Emmy ' dismantling their flotilla in Boulogne. Mather heir of the same date, from an Officer on board one of the ves sels in the Downs, says s---" We this day came in from Boulogne. A great change has taken place there. Not a vessel is te be seen out ' side the Fier ; nor could we see any soldiers upon the heights around. As we were reconnoiter ing round the Bay. they fired shot and shells at us in •very direction, before we came within range. This plainly shews they wished to keep us from watching their motions. The fad is, I have no doubt, that almost the whole of the army is marched away from Boulogne." Lord Kure sailed, we believe, on Tuesday, and reconnoitred the French coast. Sir Stooge Sean, as mentioned in the letters of our Dover Correspondent, also proceeded off Boulogne in the Desperate gun.brig, and arrived yesterday in town, to see Mr. PITT, to whom, no doubt, he com municated the result of his observations. The Di. /tient cutter, also arrived at Dover on Thursday, at eleven o'clock, a.m. with the intelligence, that, at six in the morning, a body of troops, apparently to the amount of about 5000 in number, had struck their tents, and begun their march into the interior, with baggage, ammunition, AK. The few troops that remain are in huts. On Wednesday, all the flotilla were inside the harbour I not one was out• side the Pier—the heights were deserted—not a tent nor a soldizr was to be seen on them. Our Deal Correspondent adds, that the troops on board the flotilla were disembarked on Tuesday and Wed. nesday, and immediately began their march from the coast.

In this enumeration, we find materials for an ern._ dition upon a very exteasive scale. C it with the breaking up of the camps at we may presume that some great military ewer. prises are at hand. The march of the Freinli troops, if not a feint, which is not a probable oast, could have only one of two other objets in view.... 'The troops are gone into the Ulterior of Flame, ee,. they have proceeded to the Rhine. In the to ' case, we must presume some internal convulsion e t disturbance; but. for that conjeelare, there is not the least ground. The presumption, therefore, is, that hostilities will immediately commence Ail!, .the Continent. In that event, the eipeditloti now preparing in England, whatever be its imme diate objet. will operate as a powerful diversion in favour of our Continental Allies. The invader will become the invaded, and aU it t kno wi ng, he bo as t and 4e • mace of the Corsican, will only recoil in di-grac e to i res upon his own head. The particular enterprise is contemplation of the English Government, we can. not be expeeted to knew ; nor , veal. There are many points between the 'reset and the Gulph of Greene, in which an English army may gather new laurels. and contribute iu generous aid to the deliverance of Europe. We are authorised by His Et-ellency the Scarce HN Amortisation, to velar:diet, in the tire terms, the statement which wet copied into tee English from the Fo-eigo Journals. that His SWILDISH MAJasTY had C.:l:dor sold Swelish Po rneranie to the Emperor of hunt A, as it is ahrsge ther destitute of truth.

The re, armor was, no doubt, propagated upon the Conti nent, by writers in the pay of the French Govern ment, for the purpose of lessening these two brave and virtuous Princes, in the estimation of all those who are attached to the established aid legitimate order of things in Europe. An Overland Dispatch from India, arrived yestete day at the East India House. We understand. that it has not brought any accounts of military opera tions, of a later date than those already published. The private letters vary in their statements tonna nig the siege of B'nurtpore. The moss p ro b a bl e conclusion, however, deducible from them, is, that Lord Late was waitin4 for the battering tiaie from Allaliakad. and the stores. &c. from Cewr. pore, before he made the assault meditated upon that place, which all accounts agree, would take place before the '27th of February, as the rainy sea son, or monsoon, would set in in March, whea the operations of the army must, of necessity, cease.
