GOTTENBURGII 111,1 IL. GOTTE LIBOR CH, SEPT. p B.-,Yesterday the ,Ari mine Frigate,Capt. FA RizLUH A a put into this harbOur, laving on board his Royal Highness the Duke DE BERRY and Suite, who intended, to debark here. Learning that the King of SWeden was - at Hilsing burgh, and the wind proving favourable for the Sound, he immediately set sail thither. -. The new:lts we have received that Louts XVIII. had left Cariscrona, and returned to Mitau, are un founded; the truth is, that he is still in Sweden, and expe&ed daily here. The Si.iedish Frigate the Toga, of 44 guits, , which is ordered , upon duty, and, is' DOW moored here by ,what is called the Flemish Roads, it is thought. is appointed' to take his Majesty to England. There is a great interruption to the Posts between this Country and Denmark and Hamburgh : ten Hamburg!) Mails are due here, and nearly _as many are lying on this side for Hambiargh and Denmark. The King and Queen of Sweden, with their at tendants, are at present at Belsingburgh. COPENHAGEN, SEPT. it.,--Since the English, in pursuance of the 'Capitulation of the 7th instant, have taken possession of the Citadel and Dock-yards, we, have had an opportunity to ; ascertain the stupen'- dons strength of the, numerous works erected by them around this capital. There remains no doubt but that they would have taken it by assault, had , the Capitulation not been concluded. The utimber of dwelling houses and other buildings destroyed by the bombardment amount to 305 ; for the recep lion of the inhabitants whose dwellings have been burnt, doWn, the Church of Trinity and St. Andrew are now preparing. • The famous Manufa&ory of. Arms at Frede. rieksworth have obtained a ,Capitulation, accord ing to which all property of the Crown Prince in that place is to be respeeted, and to remain un der the proteaion of the King of ENGLAND. The MantlfSlilary continues to work as before, but all the arMi they manufa&ure are to be deli vered to the English. While Most of the Magistrates of`Copenhagen were absent' or shut up in the town, Count ScnowN, 1111 DE CONINCK, Civic . CoUnsellor, and the Rev. M. RONNE, Reaor of Lyngbyn, formed a corn- . mittee, to prevent all violent requisitions on the part of the EneMy, , and watch over the preser vation of tranquillity and, order in the capital., Lord CATHCART, Commander, in Chief of the English Troops, being informed of the plan of , the above Gentlemen, wrote them a Letter, where in he expressed his entire approbation of their design. The English troops observe in general the 'strielest diseipline; but M.ljor-General BARON LIN SINGEN, and, Lieutenant -Colonel OMPTE.DA, of the GerMsn Legion, preserve in particular the most praise-worthy,order among their troops. Two English Ships have been carried into Etat neer, one laden with hemp, and the other with salt ; the latter received a shot from the Castle be tween wind and water. General Css'resiottei,o' retreated after his defeat , near R'mkild, with the :rest of the troops, 'to' the isle of Moen. Major General Count. BabintssEsr commands at Colding and on the coast of Jutland:— (6`ro c k,',.;, / ,,'4,1 Gazette of Sept. 24.) moss THE MAINE, SEPT.

The Fortess of Brannau is said to have already been . evacuated by . the French, and occupied by the Austrians ; yet the last letters from Vienna make no mention of this event.— 1 (Stackhalin Gazette, Sept. 23.) • VIENNA, AUG. 26.-=-An army of reseserve is to be formed in the hereditary possessions of his Ins pedal Majesty, amounting to 400,000 • men; , they are not to be considered as troops of theline, but as a standing militia, from whiCh all vacancies in the marching regiments are to be filled 0p..;-(Stoclellohn Gazette, Sept. e 3.)

On_ the Danish side not a 'man lost or hurt.--(Stockholin Gazette, Sept. . with'his piiirity or conseni,,as the King rof SWEDI3II never heard of thetueasure tiil the En6lish Fleet ar rived in the Sound; The Moniteur also contains the Treaty for an An mistide between Russia and the Ottoman Porte, con cluded under;the mediation of France, and signed by the respeaive Negociators, on the 24th August, at the Castle of Slobisia. The first Article stipulates for, the immediate ces sation of hostilities. According to the second, Rtis sia and the Porte, immediately after the signing of the Armistice, are to Send Envoys to negociate a Treaty of Peace as soon as possible ; and in case this should not take place, hostilities are not to be' resumed before the 21st of 'March, 1808. The t hird Article stipulates for, the evacuation of Walla chia and Moldavia by: the Russian and Turkish Troops. The fourth Article' relates to the eva cuation of the Island of Tenedos, and all the other 'places in the Archipelago in poSsession of the Rus sians. The Russian Ships of War arelo return to their own ports, and leavd the Dardanelles, and the mouth of the Swune, entirely free and open. By the sixth Article, all the Prisoners of War, and the slaves of both sexes, are to be given up Without ransom, and Mussulmen only excepted who may chuse to become Christians; the same is to be understood of the Russians who may .have be come Mahornetans. The Ratifications are to be exchanged in the course of a week. RIGA, AUG. 29.—The intelligence from the Sound has Medea sensible impression upon our Ex change, and we are impatiently waiting to see what turn things will take. However, there is yet no alteration•in the price of wares.- Our Bills of Exchange. are 2* per cent. above the usual couise., ST. PATERSBURGR, AVG. tg.—A large quantity of Artillery has been sent from this City to Cron stadr. His Majesty the Emperor has several dines inspeaml the works of defence at that port. We have just learned that a numerous English Fleet has made its appearance in the neighbourhood of Copenhagen. HAMBURGH, SEPT. 18.—Notice has been given by the Danish Post-Office here, that till further orders, no Letters or Packets are to be fOrwarded to Zealand, Laland, Falster, 'Langeland, Moen, or any Islands in the Baltic. HOLSTEIN, SEPT. 14.—1 t is not true that the child of the Adjutant-General KERCHOFF was killed by a bomb at Amalienburgh ; bat the General himself, who occupied some apartments in the Pa lace, was Wounded in the head by a bomb, and, two of his horses killed in the Crown Prince's stables, at the sane time. The three daughters of Professor. Hoo ttrtaKert had the misfortune to suffer extremely by a bomb that struck the house. One of them had both her legs shattered in pieces. It is remarkable, that the 'souse occupied by the Bishop of ZEALAND, Close to the church 'of Our Lady, escaped , the destruction the church sustained. In ,1727 also, when almost all ,the houses in the neighbourhood were laid in ashes by the great fire, the Bishop's house escaped undamaged. CADIZ, SEPT. I.—The Spanish Colonies are in the hest state of defence. New Spain contains 9500 regular troops, and :24,000 militia. In thq Province of Guatimala there are 1083 regulars, and ,7560 militia ; in Jucatan, there are 2000 men ca pable of bearing arms; in Cuba, 1560; in Florida,' 2000 ; at Porto Rico, 4400 ; in the Province . of Yeheznela, 9000 ; in New Grenada, 11,000 ; along the River Plata, '21,000 ; Peru, t 1,200 ; in ,Chili, 3350 - ; in the Philippine Islands, 12,000 ; making, in ,the whole, 129,055. These may he doubled in case of need, as all the inhabitants of 'the Spanish Colonies are zealous for their defence. The English, it is true, ,have succeeded in-Surprising one or two places; but their advantages in the New World are not likely to be of long duration. The Spanish army in Europe consists of the fol. lowing corps :—Royal Guards, .659 ; Guards, 3000; 'the King's Carbiniers, 7300 ; Infantry of the Line, 92,240, inclusive of six Swiss Regiinents ; Light Infantry, 7000; Aftillery, 6000 ; Corps Engi neers, 1396 ; Cavalry, [B,OOO ; and Militia 30 000 ; making a total of ` 150,000 meth FROM T4IE DUTCH PAPERS.

SALEM guts DICRRE YALIIUM AUDYAT L 0 N D 0 N, THURSDAY, ourontlit 8, 1807. Mr. MUNROE, the American Minister, attended at the Levee yesterday to take leave previous to his departure ; he also had an interview with Mr. CAit triNG. We understand that the instrualions whith Mr. Moratoi received from his Government were of so limited a nature, that the Negotiation could not be brought to an issue with him. Dispatches con ''taining the finahletermination of the British Govera ment have been sent to our Minister in America. We have made some further Eltraas from the Goitenturgh Mail which arrived yesterday, from which it will appear that we were perfedtly corre& in supposing that some of the secret article of the Treaty of Tilsit, related to the dismemberment of the Turkish Empire. Almost the, whole of Turkey in Europe is ,to be divided between Russia and France. LAst night Dutch Papers of the eed, e3d, and e4th ult. were received. The only articles of intelli gence which they contain will be found in a preced ing Column. IT is stated in a private Letter from Copenbageri, that as Admiral GAMIER, who had been 1511 shore, was getting into his boat to return on board a Ship, lie was fired at by some cowardly assassin ; the ball fortunately missed him, but it killed a seaman who was standing close to him in the boat. IT • was lately stated, that Government had de termined to take upon itself the business of Army Agency, and that the two new houses opposite the Horse Guards had been engaged,for that purpose.— 'Upon inquiry, we do not learn that any thing has been settled upon this head. But it is wholly un true that the - houses in question have been engaged for such • a purpose : one of them has been taken by. a Member of Parliament, and the other is to be a kind of appendage to the War-Office, for the pur pose of adjusting old accounts, by which there will be a considerable annual saving to the Country. Yet this has been converted into a topic of abuse against Ministers, for improvidence. Yesterday about twelve o'clock, their MssEsrtus .arrived at the Qom's' Palace, in their travelli:ig chariot, from Windsor; they were followed by the Princesses AOGUSTA, ELIZABETH, SOPHIA, and AMELIA, attended by the Countess of MACCLES FIELD, in two travelling coaches; the Dukes of YORK, KENT, and CAMBRIDGE, were in attendance at the door of the Palace, to receive their Royal Parents and Sisters, and handed them from the car riages.
