P THE BRITISH P. S S. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, Dicshinek 10. ARMISTICE BETWEEN PRUSSIA AND FRANCE. We have received Dutch Papers tot's:. 6th inst.— They fully confirm the report of the conclusion of an Armistice between Prussia and France. This important event, as we mentioned is a former pa per, was announced in the thirty-third Bulletin of the Grand Army, not yet come to hand, and is re- I ferret.' to in the thirty-fourth Bulletin, in terms that will not allow us to entertain any doubt upon use subjeCt. Of the specific terms nothing has trans pired. Their genet al nature may be easily antici pated. They will be hard and grinding. In the partition of Poland, FLED& BICE the GREAT was allowed to have chosen the most valuable third.— That third, his successor must now surrender, and the Prussian provinces in Westphalia will be annexed to the new kingdom of Holland. Fes/mime Wit.- xi Am, stripped of these and some other parts of his territories, may be allowed to retain the name of K ist, but he will not be allowed to wield an independent sceptre over the little that will be left to him. His Ministers and favourites will, as threatened in one of the Bulletins, be sent to beg their bread; their places will be supplied by the agents and pen sioned spies of France; and to complete his humi. liation and disgrace. he will be requited to enter into the league of the Rhine, and become one of the vassals of BON ArA WEIL To these hard terms the King of PAUSSIA must subscribe in the first instance ; but these once obtained, Bo will soon prefer new claims, and demand fresh sacr fices. A decree was published at the Hague. on the I st inst. by King Louis. extending the famous Pro. clamstion of Bon A r•rre, for the blockade of Eng land, &c. to Bass Vriezeland. 01.1enburgh, Nip. I hausen, Varel, and the whole extent of Holland. This was expetled is a matter of course. The mea sure will be commensurate with his power and in fluence; and, the farther it travels, the more it will proeldirn the malice and frenzy of the author. In absurdity. it resembles the case of M Am:oder and the mountain: Manom Er .gave notice, that he should snake the mountain come to him. and the people as sembled to witness the miracle. The moo tai. , when called, would net, however, come to M ANONET ; " Well. then." said Massoss Ex. " I must walk up to the mountain;" and, tussling to the people. be added, "Is not the effeet just the same I" Bow a.- aaaaa cannot shut England ih ; well, then, lays be. I will shut her out. and that is to blockade her. The report of the victory of the Russians over the French at Posen, has lost all credit. A Letter from Newcastle, dated December 6. says:—" The Achilles. Capt. WIATtIFILLIF, is if. rived here, laden with staves, fee. from Dantzic ; he sailed from that port on the 24th Nov. arrived at the Sound onithe 2Stli, and got into Shields yes terday. An intelligent Gentleman, belonging to a Merchant's office in the town, is a passenger. Hc . , Ares that the city of Dantzic was making every preparation for defence; it contained 13,000 treopi, but of these a number were invalids. They ex pelled daily the arrival of the French before the place. The King of ['tussle. was in the aeighbnur hood of Graudeate, and had collelted about 30,000 Prussian troops, commanded by Count K•LsazuT A. A Russian column of 16,000 men were arrived at Warsaw, and other columns advancing into Poland. It was supposed that the whole of the allied force would very soon be upwards of 100,000 men. The great bridge over the Vistula, at Thorn, had been destroyed ; as also all the cratt upon that river, which could serve the French troops to cross it. " There was no account at Elsinehr on the 2fith, of the French entering flolstein ; on the contrary, the Danes were retiring from the frontier ; and, at the date named, no alarm prevailed at Elsineur for the neutrality of Denmark." On Vv'ednesday last, the Cavan Militia, who had been quartered at Mullingar, for some time, received the route for Athlone. This is the regiment reported last week to have Smen (pattered at Granard, and to have had.a serious aaion with the Threshers. near that town. The report originated with the follow iag circumstances :—" In ♦arious places," says 7ne Dahlia Journal, of the 4th, " near Mullingar and neighbourhood, sightly depredations con tinue to be committed by the Thraskerr, and oaths administered to the quantum of tythes and priest's dues to be paid ; or at least this has been the pretest for these nocturnal associations. Two of these deluded men were killed last wetk, and some taken prisoners near Granard, by a small party of the Cavan Militia: A few nights ago, a la•ge body of them entered the • village of Daliinclee, in the county of Longford. They made The ihhalsitants illutio!nate their windows, Inl remained there till ntar motning. Opsrirds of 1003 of them have been seen together in the county of Longford. The Earl of LJNGFORD has caused a nightly guard to be placed upon the bridge over the river Inny, and also at the floats near the village of Cool that dividesthe Counties of Longford and West meath, for the purpose of preventing the ThresLers from passing into the latter County, which has yet remained undisturbed." In out Paper of Monday last, we gave a sketch of a pamphlet, purporting to be an account of the rise, progress, and termination of the late nego 7 ciation with France. Upon reference to the obser vation with which we introduced our sketch of it, our reatiers will find, that we entertained doubts of its official authority ; and were only led to suppose the work had the sanEtion of Government, in con sequence of its giving particular passages as en. tradts, copied, verbatim, from the original do cuments. Some of the Papers of yesterday, avowedly ministerial, have assured their readers, " from authority," that the said Pamphlet has not, in any way, received the sanftion of Go vernment, and was not. written with the know ledge of any of the Member; ;r Achninistra esa." One of the papers alluded to, goes far. tiler, and considers the Pamphlet as written in hosti lity t. Government, and with a view to incense the Emperor of Russi a against England, as it diretily charges, that M. D'OuIRIL had full powers to sign the Treaty with France, which the Eurstoe re fused to ratify. _ The contraband spirits seised and lodged in the out•prts, will, in future, be sold in London, and not as heretofore, at the respeCtive out-ports. His MAJESTY is expelled in town this day. Yesterday His Maus=v rode on hursebAck in the neighi,ourhood of Windsor, accomranied by the Duk- of CA MORIDOS, Princesses AUGUSTA, So- Yell A, and ANIL t A, Lords MACCLESFIELD, rtIYSMS, and Ssurroeo, Count MUNSTER, ire.

On Monday. a troop of the 14th Light Dragoons arrived in town from Dorchester, and it was sup pewsi they were intended for foreign set vice; but on sp; lying at the W.ir Office, the horses were ordered to be sold by *Gillum and the Officers and privates, srlten nee ivered from the fatigue of the journey, are diktllOU,Tlttd to their late quarters.

After a fatiguing passage of ten days, eighteen arrivel in a collier at Yarmouth, almost worn nut with the hardships they had experienced ; fee having hut a scanty portion of salted provisions no board, they had lived principally on damaged itis euk and had water. A few hours previous to their .riscap, , , a body of Frerch troops was put on board • vessel, to go in pure" it of a barge, which had some property on board, st.siie4led to he English. It is isot the opinion of these Gentlemen that any of the 'ersons detained .t Hamburgh will be sent to . Yerdun. The ' tench troops at liamburgh, they say. behaved Aith more pinpriety than their gere ral charatter had led the inhabitants to rap ft ; ! but still their conduit was outrageous, and several of them had beeri shot by order of their °Emirs. A d:putrion had been sent to Bet lin. to endeavour to ' prevail on Boner ear to abate the rigour of his proclamation ; bet of the success of their mission, /rule or no hope was entertained. hl.. N. the Gentleman Who was wounded in the left breast in a duel with an Irish Gentleman on Wednesday se'nnight, at Waltham Grove, the par ticulars of which have appeared, died on 'I borstal , last. The hall was not curetted until three days after the duel had taken place, and Mr. N. was con sidered in a fair way of doing well; but a sudden alteration took place, two days previous to his death. A Coroner's Jury sat on the body, and, from the testimony adduced, it appealed that the deceased had sent three challenges to his antagonist, the last of which gave him the choice of a meeting or a horsewhipping. The altercation originated in consequence of the survivor having prevailed upon the niece of the deceased to elope with, and marry bim. The Imperial Realm of Britain seems the only remaining spot of liberty, where independence is se cure, and ',Welt the destructive Power of the Cor sican Tyrant cannot teach. That our sea-girt Isles will, in consequence, immediately he resorted to, as an Asylum, by multitudes of Continertal Sufferers, is not to be doubted; and that many of them will devote a trifle, from the wreck of their t:rtunes, to cur present stealth-giving Lottery, in hopes of mending their shattered nuances, is pretty certain. This is another motive why Adventurert, on our l' own vide of the water, should lose no time in naakir.g their purchases. DUNDA 1, HOU,/ .
