I2.—Since the welcome intelligence of Buonaparte's disastrous retreat from Nloscow„ a partial communication has been opened 'between, n this island and the Con tinent. Small vessels now arrive daily, laden with beef, butter, eggs, and vegetables : these are not paid 14. in money, but in kind.. The masters of these vessels do not hesitate to take back colonial produce.; fOr they say that the garrisons, of the towns, and the nouaniers—those infauions satel lites of the tyrant, have already relaxed in their vigilance. They doubtless fear that the day of retribution is near at hand ; and veil they inay . for if the new of Buonaparte's retreat has wrought such wonders, what will not the certainty of his defeat—destruction of his army—and probable captivity—do ? Overthrow the Continental sys tem at least, you will say ; God grunt it, and the freedom of- all the nations reduced under his yoke, , will be my reply." "lIAMBURGH, DEC. 9.—Beneath a grave ex terior, which it is still necessary for them to as sume, our citizens are overwhelmed with Theastoni;hing events which have taken place in Russia Within a few weeks appear like a dream.— We can scarcely credit them. Can it be possible that that well disciplined and numerous army that penetrated to Moscow, can be annihilated---that the cauqueror of Austerlitz, Friedland, .and Juka,. is at this time a fugitive ? Such arse the rumours in circulation here. lf true;and we can scarcely. yet credit, the. empireof Charlemagne already tot, : ters to its foundation-, and the nations bowed to the,ground 116 , :neath its yoke have a chance of re, gaining their freedom and their rights, s" 1 have made the necessary arrangements.— , You may send the goods 5 but for the lute news, this act would have cost me inv life, the - confisca .tion of my property,, and the, imprisonment and ruin of my family.' ' A melancholy accident: happened on Monday last, at the Fordhouses,. near 'Wolverhampton. = A young woman, named Webb, 17/years of age, bad been to fetch soine water,. and on her return home met an acquaintance, wit)) a loaded gun in his hand, which she requested he would give her to fire off i . upon his refusing to do so, she seized the gun by the, muzzle, and whilst she was strug 7 filing to get it from him, the piece exploded,when the contents entered her stomach, and passed through her back.—lie expired the same evening.

The - Chair was appointed to he taken at twelve o'clock, by the Duke of Kent, hut as a letter was received from his Royal Highness, stating that he was confined with a severe cold, which prevented him from attending; Lord Teigmuouth was then cal led to the Chair. His Lordship stated that the object of the Sociery.would be to - rescue mankind fibril a state of barbarism to a sense of religion and the propagation of the Gospel. Viscount Castlereagh, in an appropriate speech, proposed the ,Resoltitions. Mr. Whitbread folloWed, in a. very, impressive, eloquent, and sublime speeeh, and seconded the Resolutions. 'The Rev. Mr. Steinkoff, the .Foreign SefTetary to the. Parent Society„ stated fully a description of his travels through Denmark,.

Russian Officer married the youngest daughter of the late Commissioner PrOby,• at Chatham. While tra velling in France, this aniiabk lady was detained as a pri6oner, and sent to Paris ; arid notwith every intreaty of her husband, to permit her to be removed to a more southern province, on •tcconut of the delicate state of her health,. the Tyrant's obstinacy was not to be softened; and.this accom plished woman fell a victim to the dreadful mala dy with which she was then afflicted. The person-; al injuries sustained by this gallant officer will, we doubt not, superinduce a•degree of activity to en able him to indict summary vengeance on the heilf.l of the deStroyer of all his happiness..
