COPENHAGEN, AUG. 9.---The English Alphas . - sidor, Mr. Foster, is arrived here from Sthonen,- and will deli,%;er hiS credentials MO few days. On the 10th,.the other Commissioners will have their audience Of leave. The ,conviction with which those di'Aingnished men, purposely chosen by their Governments, leave Copenhagen, that Den mark has sbewn in respect toNorway, its charac ter.stie integrity, will have, we hope, the influ ence in favour of the kingdom, which King and People nmy expect after so many sacrifices and suffelings. LunEcK, AUG. Vandamme has net with a remarkable accident : the ship on board -which .he : vas, was struck by lightening in the Baltic, - .and greatly damaged. it was forced to stop at Gotbland, when General Vandamme came on board a Swedish' vessel to- IVarnemund: Though travelling in the character of a Post master; he was recognized at Rostock, and only the interference of the military saved him from the fury of the people. He left Rostock amid many expressions of indignation towards him, and pelted by the boys in,the streets with mud and •stones.—(//antburgh Cares. Aug. 13 and 16.) Exchange on London, Aug. 13.-32, 2. BRUSSELS, AUG. s.—The number of foreign troops who are to occupy the Belgian Provinces till the conclusion of the Congress at Vienna, is now fixed. The Hanoverians consist of 30 bat talions of foot, a cOrps of artillery on foot and on horseback, and two regiments of- hussars. Tire artillery and one regiment of hussars are already here the first column of the infa►ttry is expected on the 25th, and will he follo'wdd by the others: Two regiments of English guards and :k corps of cavalry are to form •the garrison of Brussels. Our garrisons are to consist of 10 English regiments Of infantry, 4 of cavalry ; and a numerous division of artillery : all these troops are on the %var esta blishment. The Dutch troops occupy 4 great part of the banks Of the Sambre acid iliense. The Belgiati legion consists of 4 regiments of the line, 2 of chasseurs, 1 of dragoons, 1 of htissars, and a goad corps of artillery; they are to occupy our frontiers ou the side of France. It is believed that several new corps of Belgian troops will be immediately raised. • All the Austrian Officers, civil as well :,as mili t.iry, who . were here on missions from their Go=c. veininents,haveleft us, from time to time, to re tui hto Germany. The Pkussian Officers still here are considered as travellers. The Prince Qf Orange's Nephew has taken a step which ensures him the blessings of the inha bitants of Brussels, who for these four years have been deprived of the income of their capitals. The city was able to pay, bat when the time of payment arrived, the money was sent by the Go vernment to Paris—They are now to receive the interest for 1811, and, in the sequel, for 1812, 1813 and 14, 13nussELs, Auc. 17.---The Duke of Wellington is still in this city; his protracted stay is attributed 'to various political and military objects. His Ex cellency, ticcol i npanied by his Royal Highness the Hereditary Prince of Orange, has been to Naniurs to examine the situation of the city, and the re pi the works, as well 'as the fort upon the the conflux of .the Sambre and the Meuse. The Prince and the E6glish General were received .with inconceivable :The Dutch Guards, with . tve• Connnandant, General Stedman, at their head, Were under arms. „The people took the hurses from the earria , re . and drew it, amid the loudest - acc!alnation, with ringing of bells and firing of cannon, to-the lithe!. The Hereditary Prince and the Duke, with several Officers of the Engineers, im diately beg' an to examine the place, on which t ey etipToyed 't*o wbole days. Evety - fficates that Namur will soon be made a place• of arms of the first magnitude, and One of the.chief bulwarks' f Bei.glcirna .: - Chalet-or, 1'40n3,, Tommy, and Merlin, will likeivise be, strengthe ed, and, with Ypres and Ireurriei make a strong barrier to wards the French frontier. It is affirmed- th:A - England - is cohirihnte toy, ards the great expellee that this 'WOrk: . will Otcasion. It it said that two Couriers - lifive arrived at 'Ostend frOM Lonilon, with dispatches of the ia4portanee. The English American Commissioners at Ghent have had four- confer.- ences.; but it seems, from several measures that :ire there taken, that the negociation will be of long duration,. • Many addrc§ses have been presented to the I'm ince of Orange, requesting that-oar provinces may be permitted to send Commissioners to Vi edniC, during the Congress, to Watch over our in terests.—(Haailem Courant, Aug.. 18 and .20) FRENCH PAPERS. PARts, AUG. 18. 7 -A cavalry guard Of honour is forming at Besancon, to attend upon their Royal highnesses Monsieur and the Doke de Berri,'who are OTected to visit the department of DoUbs, early in the ensuing mouth:' The Minister of the Interior COmnimileated yesterday to` the Chamber of Peers, the law respecting the liberty of the press. It Was' immediately referred to the consi deration ofthe Committees ; and when they shall have made their reports, the project will be dis cussed generally by the Chamber. It is said that the Duke of Wellington has made a considerable purchase of land in the neighbour hood of Morfontaine, in order to form a race .course. AUG. 19.;---Yesterday the Duke of Berri arrived in this. city, op his return from Englund. The King has lost:,two of .his'old 811(1 faitlrful ,cr yaws, the DiMs d'Aumont and Vi;kipiier, died each in the 78th 'year of his age. We learn froth tktvunnc, that the Madrid Ga zette of the 21st of 3 ulv, contains a,decrce prohi biting all Frenchmen to.? enter Spain, And orderingA those,etablished there to depart; on pain of im prisonment. The reason assigned is, that there is only a suspension of hostilities between the two Powers. We have seen the Gazette of the 21st, which contained no such decree . ; though it may have appeared in a supplement, as our 1.1 - awinne correspondent• positively asserts the information to be correct. Accounts from Naples state, that the sovereign of that kingdom has changed his old title of 'Joachim Napoleon, Kin of the Two Sicilies, into that of Joachim I. King of Naples. ;Prince Ester-, hazy has been appointed'Arnlyassador from Austria to tyre Pope. The creation of a new Order, to be called the Order of the Dove, is talked of.

MADRID, AUG. 7. 7 —The Proclamation pub lish 33 at Cadiz by the Captain-General Viliavi cencio has not yet produced, the intended effect. It would be necessary to establish a blockade both by sea and -land, to withhold the intelli • gence which arrives to its from all quarters, re specting the claims and representation cif Chaides IV. Unhappily, the political ,edifice erected during the .last ,four _ months is not pe - t ci en tly established. The disorder of the finances —the• conflict of opinions—and the • state of our American dominions, afford grounds in quietude, which ale beyond the power of declara tions to remove.—lt is said that Don - litaize Os toloza, and the Reverend Father Atalaya, have lost a part at least of t their ,fatal influence. Our Ministry seem inclined to act 'cordially for the pnrpnse of averting the calamitous consequences of the dangerous system which has latterly been adopted. VIENNA, AUG: B:—There is sonic talk of esta blishing an,araty of obseKvation in Gallicia. Our paper-money still continues on the decline. Some people'ascribe this to the revisal of foreign Com merce, which deprives us of our specie. We are assured that the camp of Plaisance, amounting to 30,000 men, which was to have hen formed in the neighbourhood of Minkendorf, towards the end of September, has been counter . manded or postponed. SPEZZIA, AUG. s.—The English cause the works on our harbour to be continued. day the ship John sailed hence for London, laden with marble from Porto Venere, destined, it is said, to form a facade foy St. James's Palace, on the Park side.

TURIN; AUG. is said that the King of ( Sardinia will take a journey to Vienna, at the pe riod of the Congress, to discuss with the Allied Sovereigns the rights of hiS Crown. We expect With impatience the termination of the arrange ments relative to our country. ,This state of un certainty causes great disquiet, GENOA, 3.—Lord Bentinck has published a proclamati(m, in which he annonntes that he has appointed the two-thirds of the Members who are to appose out• Great and Lesser• Council.
