S S. THE 11RITISH PR' LONDON, TUESDAY, Ocrocift 31. WAR BETWEEN PRANCE AND PRUSSIA. The report of the eonsmencement of hostilities between France and Prussia, so often repeated, and so much doubted, is, at length, confirmed. The 4amburgh Mail, due on Sunday. has not arrived r . Silt we have received, by a vessel from the Elbe, the Hamliurgh Papers to the I nth instant, which place this important question beyond all doubt or dispute. nu Bth of Ottaber was the day fixed by public opinion for this great event, and it took place ac cordingly. On that day the first, shot was fired, a shot that will resound through the world, and pro bably decide the destinies of Europe. From the. intelligence of last weck, the French appeared to. be accumulating their force upon their right wing, and consolidating it with their centre, between Wart burg and Bamberg, at which place SOULT had arrived with his corps lions the South. They seemed to have for their otieft to turn the Prus sian left, under Prince HoacN I. our, which ex. tended to Hoff, or to cut it off Irons the cenue, un der the Duke of BauNswice, at Erfurt, the head quarters of the King of Paosssa. With one of these views, 16,000 men of the divisior.sot Dayousr and So int advanced to the extremity of the Prussian left, at Huff, which town they entered on the Bth. Ihe small corps of Tau crimes,. stationed there, had preeiously fallen back, timely north, to Schleita, , from whence it was expeEted, on the yth, to fall still farther back upon Noustadt, by which movement the Prussian wing would become closely. concen trated under Prince llouestool, whose head quarters were at Jena, in the sear of the centre at Erfurt. This retrograde movement from Hoff, was effeEted without aoy loss, and appears to have been made upon the same principle which iodated the French to consolidate their centre and right. [t has also, the advantage of bringing the Prussians nearer to the Russians, and accelerating their junc tion. The French are thus the assailants ; aad as it is obviously their policy to attack the Prussians single handed, they have probably followed up the blow. In executing this movement, the French are said to have lost t 0 in f o i of coarse there was only a slight skirmish between the rear of TAUITIZZIS and the visa of the corps that entered •Holf.— It appears, however, as if part of tie Pnusian cen tre had also an adion with the French, as General tivowlCK'll hussars, who were represented as part Of it, are said to have distinguished themselves, and taken 800 prisoners. PRUSSIAN bid 4ylnsTo. The great length of the Manifesto, or Declaration of War of the King of Ileum& against France, and the lateness of the hour at which we received it, prevent us front giving more than a part this day. We 441 give the remainder to-morrow. This im portant document is contained in the Supplement to the ifamialsb Correvondadva of the I 7th of OCtober, an 4 is dated from the llead-quarters at Ertat th, on the 9th( the day after the adual commencement of hostilftles. The pan which we have given of it is sufficient ,to thew that it is a perspicuous, libe ral, and dignified production. It 4 ees back to the beginning of the Revolution, in the year 1792; recites 411 the violations of the different treaties successavFly concluded, the Treaty of Lancedle, the rreety of Amiens, the Peace of Presburg, and the va• inus stipulations made with Prussia ; the abolition of the German Constitution, by which " Princes, who had never offended France ' were deprived of their independence ' and made the vassals of others, thCITI-. uut consulting the ElditlMlL Of GILLbANY, from whom a Crown was wrested, or Russia so lately be. come a guarantee of the German League, or Prus sia, intiipately interested in that League, was a monstrous proceeding. Wars and continued vistloties have i0f1)011MOS produced great and remarkable catastrophes ; but such an example in time of Peace WAS never betore given to the world." The Manifesto then proceeds to recite at length the conduit of Boniie ARIL with reSpat to Cleves, Wesel, Hanover, Ste. S• It was no longer doubtful that Navol.com had determined to overwhelm Prussia with war, or to render her for ever incapable of war, since it was evi•lent that he was leading her from humi liation to humiliation, till she should be reduced to such a state of political degradation and feebleness, that she could have no ether will than that of her forrnidfble neighbour." The last doubts at length disappeared ; troops marched :ram the iatsrior of France to•-. , rds the - INN ; the intent to attack th main was elm and certain. The King ordered a Note to be transmitted by General Knobeladorff, containing the condition, on which he was ready to come to an accomoiLda. Lion. These conditions were 1. That the French troops should evacuate German,. 2. That Fame should oppose no obstacles to the format'',l of the. Northern Confederacy; and that this Confeileiat,tri might embrace all the larger end smaller States nut inclosed in the Fundamental Act of tbe Confederation of the Rhine . S. That a nenociation should immediately be commenced for the adjustment of all objets re depute, a Preliminary Ar ticle of which should be the restoration of three Abbeys, at,4 the separation of the town of Wesel from the French empire. " These conditions speak for themselves : they sheet how moderate the King has been in his de. mends, even at this moment ; and how much the maintenance of Peace, it France wishes Peace, de. pends upon hetself. "The term, peremptorily fixed by the King for the decision of peace or war ha's elapsed. His Majes t y has not received the answer of the Cabinet of S t . Ciond,or rather the preparations made around him, daily give that answer. The King can confide the safety and honour of the crown only to arms. H e leads to honourabie combat an army worthy of i s' former glory. He reigns over a people, cd ah em he may be proud; and while he 'is ready to shed his blood for them, hi t kitnws - what he may expeafrom their, energy and affeftion. Prieces, the honour of the Gemara name, have joined their banners with his ; and a Sovereign, who honour; with his virtues one of the first thsones in the word, is penetrated with the justice of his cause. H i s arms are blessed by the voice of his people. With so many motives to be conscious of her strength, Prussia may be permited continually to confide in her high destiny." We trust that we shall soots have it in our power to announce a glorious victory over the Span',sh Beet. The Curteret packet, arrived at Falmouth IQ Friday, with Mails from Malta and Gibraltar, lie . brought the following interesting account " On the Ist of 08ober, at Pa a. as. Cadiz bare N. N. D. diitant 4 levees, on smfaring it perceived the Spanish Beet of 1,2 ma, supposed of the line, four Leader weigh, and the others preparing to sail; 7 a. as. saw Lord costasicwison's fleet of 9 sail of the line, a schooner, and a cotter; at 11 a. ay. a boat from the A it, man of war came aloogside the Carteret. The Clificer said, the Spanish Fleet was coming out, and that Lor Cot ttrowoon had tecatipted positive information of their determination to put to eta. On the 24, the Carteret saw a line nf battle ship standing its fur the Fleet, which would makeiswed Col.t.twawacw's fame ten ships of the line." Letters from our fleet of Brost, state, that three sail of the line and two frigates, full of treops, have made their escape from that port. The Spanish fleet. and the small Brest squadrna are bath; is all probability, dretined foe South America. The Carteret packet sailed from Matte on the 13;h last. General Stuaiar had arrived there -from Si cily, en the 10th. Every part of the Two C 414- Inixs has been abandoned to the French, except Scylla. in which we still have a garrison. Thus, there appears to be no foundation rot the report of a second great vidlery over the French in that quarttr. His MAJtSTY is expected in town tomorrow.
