No confirmation of the destruction of Sackett's Harbour has yet arrived ; but CH AUNCEY'S Let ter, in another part of our impz;:!ssion, augments our hope that the intelligence will turn out to be well-founded. We have this morning French Papers to the 26th, hut with the exception of ki remarkable ar ticle relative to the re-organization of Germany, their contents are of the usual unimportance. We have alsc; Hamburgli, Dutch, and German Pa pers, from which we have extracted all that seems worthy. of notice. AiOscow.,:nussian Papers give the following interesting statistical notices respecting the pre sent state of the city of MOscow : Before the Conflagration it contained 2561 stone houses, and 6591 of wood—total 9153. Of these, only 526 of the former, and 2,100 of the latter were left after the fire, so, that the total number destroyed was 65::2. -Repaired and rebuilt in 1813, 2180—and in 1814,. 2798. The 'city covers a super ficies of 16,120,800 square fathoms; and is composed of 20 different l arts which are subdivided into 90 q uorters. Ja nuary 1814, the population 'was 161,956, and , in August. 172,991 ; of whoin 101,729 were males, and 71,262 females, The births in 1813 were, males-2498, feMales 2660—total 5161. Th e deaths in the same year, males 4357, females 3646 -- total 8003. In the extracts given from the French Journals in the London papers, of the 21st, it was said that the house of the English Ambassader, at Con stantinople was destroyed by'the fire whicir hap pened- there in the night of the 4th of October. The German papers, front wh:ch we presume the French accounts were taken, say no such thing, b u t only that tha• the quarter on both sides of the narrow street leading to the hohse of the Englisb Embassy, &r. felt a prey to the flAtnes. On Saturday a Cabinet Ctiturii was held at the Foreign Office, which was attended by all the Ca binet Ministers.. The Council did not break up until fi,e o'clock in -the afternoon, BROWN, the Messenger, teas seat .off , with patches for the Duke of WELLINGToN and Lord CASTLERRAGH.

By recent accounts from Portugal we learn, that the services of a number of British O, ices have been. dispensed with in consequence of an extensive reduction in t.-e Portuguese army. All the British Officers, however, whose COTHIIIiSSiOPS bear date prior to the,3lst of December, 1810, are to be retained. , It is reported that the• Rank- is to advance 6,000,0001. to Government, to enable them to put off the L'ian until May or • J une next. Se, eral communications have recently taken place be tween Governmen: and the Bank ; and a Special Court of Proprietors is appointed for Thursday next, which is supposed to have a - reference to this subject._ A genteel dressed man endeavoured to pass Judd, one of the cheque takers at the Pit of Drury-lane Theatre, at ten o'clock on Saturday night, but not having been in before, the man did his duty, and stopped him. The stranger unbuttoned his coat, drew a loaded pistol front his pocket, and was in the act of presenting it, when. Baker, a constable, belonging to the Inspector's Office, snatched it from his hand, and the offender was safely secured in St. Martin's watch-horse.—Wea ate informed that the 'person guilty of this iui prudency is a Naval Officer of gOod fainily, who bad just arrived from Portsmouth, and after dining with sonic friends went in his travelling equipments to the Theatre, where, from being unacquainted with the avenues, lie endeavoured to return to his place by a different dour from that at which he had left the Pit. This gave rise to the improper scene which ensued. He tors liberated from the watch-house, upon undertaking to ap'- pea; at Bow-street, at one o'clock to-day, to answer for his offence. Last night, the very pmp n i nns ne i g ht ou r4ood of St. Martin's-lane was thro wn i n t o g reat, an d by no means unfounded alarm; by severhl explo sions which. took _place there in the course of the evening ; the main sewer, which runs through St. Martin's-lane, has been, fur some time past, opened, for the purpose of renewing the - arch. The very heavy rain last night, 'k i p, not only thrown down a considerable part of the new work; but the press of water has broke down the ex ternal walls of the cellars of the houses belonging to Messrs. BELL and- Mot:NI-A/N. The neigh , from six o'clock till nine, was in state of dreadful uneasiness ; the noise occasioned by masses of brick which fell from time to time - ) the roaring of the water in the centre of the street, the cries of the inhabitants, and the clamour of the workmen, formed a very appalling scene. The cessation of the rain, however, quieted,. in a great degree, the fears of the inhabitants. The damage occasioned, is, however, emzsiderable, NAVAL - PORTSMOUTH, NOV. 27.—Arrived yesterday his Majesty's ships Comet anti Challenger, from New foundlaU(l.
