Gen. of the Colony. Two violent hurricanes which took place at the Isle de France and La Reunion, on the 21st February and 10th Mach, had destroyed the cora and maize harvests; but the care and aetivity of the Administration had succeeded in causing to be imported into those islands a quantity of rice so(fisieat to supply the want occasioned by the damage. The prospea of the new harvest was highly encouraging. Gen. Decaen had receiv ed the new troops sent hive from France, in the be ginning of the year; they had not lost a man in the course of their passage.—His Majesty's ships had captured a number of enemy's vessels, which bad safely arrived at the Colony. Amongst the number is the Wayne &wive East ludia man, with a dbmplete cargo. (We Mall insert Me aeroant of 4er capture in •sr sea.) An extra Company's ship, of 800 tons burt'aen. name unknown, bad just been brought its, with a complete cargo of cotton and sandal wood ; the latter had been taken by La Bseallarae, Capt. Mo tet-el, who had also captured the Jen.: Ces•iii, of the same burthen, but which had not then arrived. Foar other Indiamen had been earned or sank by this frigate. French privateers hail also brought into the colony the following prizes, the Henry Addington and Kerkira, captured in Bancoul roads, with cargoes, valued at 530,000 fr.; the Ez frerinsent, of 680 tons, with a cargo of teas; two Whalers; the Viper, burthen and lading not men tioned; and the Pioniz, 600 tons, estimated at 700,000 fr. In the three months previous to La Creole's leaving the colony, the foliowmg prizes had also arrived t h ere, with different cargoes: the Henry, of Liverpool, 200 tons; the lieleills. of Cal cutta, 800 ; the lodeavour, of Hamra, 300 ; the Practise of Wales, of Bancoal. 200; the Diamond. of Leaden, 460; the ILrestks, of Barahay, 500; the Wales; a: r, of China, 600; the 1445. r, of Cal. entta, 35); the Commerce, of Cslcutta, 380; the Belo, of legs, 600.

' At the cptsclusion of this conference, which was very long, the new Reis Effendi yielded to the de mands of M.

This declaration has produced an extraordinary sensation here. M. Chateaubriant, whose writings are well known, has passed through Constantinople on his way to Jerusalem.

THURSDAY, Dici sts 11. We have received a series of the Haredurer C.rrespuidenirn to the 4th inst. and Dutch and Paris Papers to a late date. From the latter we have extrafted, with other artic les, the Thirty second and Thitty-third Bulletins of the Grand Army, emitailling a Copy of the terms of the Armistice between Prussia and France. The con ditions are such as we expeElcd. Fit u ERICK WIL LIAM has been required to put almost the whole of his dominions into the hands cf the French, and• to throw himself upon the mercy cf the Conqueror. Koenigsberg appears to be almost the only strong place of which he is allowed to retain possession. At that place, the Prussians are to assemble from the right bank of the Vistula, and the French are to retain possession of South Prussia, on the right bank of that river, to its junaion with the Bug. Thorn, Graudentz, and Dantzic, the three principal places upon the Vistula, north of that point; and Glegau and Breslau upon the Oder, with the Duchy of that name on the right, and a certain portion of territory on the left, are also to be put into the hands of the French. Stettin and Cumin, the two other strong places on the Oder, were already in their possession, by conquest. The fortresses of Hameln and Niem burg ar also to be delivered tip to them, on con dition that the garrisons are not to be made prisor•.ess of war ; but it appears from the 31th Bulletin, that Hameln had, been takes, and the garrison made prisoners. Western Prussia, and the greater part of South Prussia, beirg thus covered by the French, and the Prussian troops collated and pent up in Koenigsburg, the other parts of Eastern Prussia are not to be occupied by any troops, Prussian, Russian, or French. If the Russians have arrived there, they are to fall back, and the King of Pavut• engages not to receive any of them, during the continuance of the Armistice. The Armistice was signed it Charlottenburg, on the 16th November, and the exchange of ratifications was to take place at Gran dente, on the list last, at farthest. The negocia tioss which led to it, were opened so far back as the 13d of Otflober. The 52d Bulletin recapitulates the force of the Prussian Army, aad states it at 145,000 men, all of whom have been either killed, wounded, or taken. The force remaining to the King of Peluso., is estimated at not more than 20,000 men. At the signing of the Armistice, the French bad taken the following positions : Lam is was at Thorn; A;:ote esti at Bromberg, nearly opposite Graudentz ; DAVOUST was advancing from Posen to Warsaw t -hamar 800 AAAAAA was besieging Gros Gloga. and Breslau ; Louis Bort aaaaaa had been ordered back to Holland, to defend his King dom in person. The Hamburgh Papers state, that the Armistice has not been ratified by His Patssi•a MAJAST in consequence of which, BON aaaaaa left Berlin on the evening of the 25th ult. for Custrin and Posen. The greatest part orate French troops have Left Hamburgh. From Hallam, Nov. Mit is observed, that " not sr./Wending the war with Prussia is ended, troops from all parts of the French empire continue to pass the Rhine, to reinforce the Grand Army. The plans of NArot.zos are not yet completed to their full ex tent, as great changes may be expo:led in Poland and in the North of Europe." An article from Vienna, dated Nov. 18, sayst—s " All the reziments on the frontiers have had orders to march immediately to Poland, and to halt but one day out of five. Since the theatre of war has been removed into Poland, hese troops, it is said, are to form a new Cordon of Observation." From Bamberg, Nov. 21, it is stated, that Bres lau, the capit.l of Prussia* Silesia, has oie..ed iu gates to the vt&orioUs French army. The Pais Papers of the !nth ult. mentirn the arrival of a p, with Dispatches from General Deeatu, in 33 daps.--Tait mutt 5e a mistake. It a is impossible tte passage could have so sort A time.—Thep announce, we say, consiJerable successes gained cruisers in the Inaiza seas. It appears from an article in the 'A. pers, that Russia and Turkey have ►ettled ferecces. Government, we understand, have ligence, that Bo AAAAA TC is making exertions. to increase his navy, and are least to keep pace with him. Several new ships to be im nediately laid down, and those now on stocks ordered to be finished with all expedition.
