H4IYMBURG4 PAPERS. HAMBUOH, - DEC. the fete of his Majesty the Emperor and King, adiscourse suitable to the occasion ivered in the Catholic Church. A collet ion for the relief of the poor was at the same time made,-at i , hicit two of the ladies of the Chief Functionaries presided. Presents were aim, made to the necessitous. Ilis Excellency the Prince of Ecktuuld, Gover nor-General, assembled in his palace the principal civil and military functionaries. EXcelleticy gave the followipg toast :—"To Napoleon Me Great ! !rho anniversary of the coronation of our well-be. loved Sovereign reminds us of the day which fixed on an immovable basis the prosperity and happi ness of his peopl !" This ttia.t was received with that enthusias!” which the enunciation of a grand truth always produces. That the poor might; participate in the public joy, the city provided a lottery, the prizes in •: hick con sisted of eatables. This fete °tiered us a new and - most. interesting spectacle. Admissions.to the three Theatres of this city were free. Above four thousand spectators, without distinction of sex or age, passed the evening in the most agreeable manner, and formed the most ardent vows for the life of a. Monarch; who seeks only the happiness and p i rosptrity of so many peo ple in hi 3 vast empire. The greatest order reigned throughout the oily. The joy was general. An active and well-organized police had no offence to punish. Heaven even seeiiied to favOitr, by the finest weather,, a fete, which involves so much glory. It is remarked, that every day the inhabitants of, this country become more kind more attached to ,the existing order of things, which has already caused them to enjoy the good administration and the in s►itutions which will immortalise the reign of Na. polenn 7t he Great, as much as military► prodigies. The towns and villa es of this deportment rivalled the large cities in duly celebrating the let e of the curonation. BREMEN, Nov. 27.—We have just learned here, that the Englisn wishing to surpii so a post of ten or twelve Soldiers of•the, 118th i s egiment, placed about a quarter of a league from Eppens on the .lalide, landed on the 72d instant about 100 men, corn mantled by several officers-. , .Serjeant 'Silbieebt,who commanded this small post, let the enemy come near, and then opened his fire s which alarmed them so 11741c11, IEO they halted ; and the serjcant, taking advantage of tin: hesitation marched . out against them with such firmness that they thought he had a considerable force. The enemy's astonishment' was converted into a complete route. Their officers and soldiers fled tai, their boats, pursued by .the brave . serjeant, who'took 12 Muskets and some cal fridge birxes. The English Captain was killed, and five soldiers mortally wounded. • tiRnINANCE. .

We Wye authority to state, that' Par4itylent Will meet on the 7th of next month, and proteed im mediately'to the dispatch of business With Out an adjOurnment. The Lords FINGAL'. and NIITTERVILLE have been taken into custody in Dublin, in conseqUence of having attended another Catholic Meeting, which was dispersed as illegal. They were • arresied for having successively appeared as Chairmen at this meeting. Alton. and Hamburgh Papers reached town last night, to the 7th inst. and Letters from Gotten burgh to the 17th. The latter "stmb, that the Vic tory, and the fleet lot` England, .sailed on the i 511 i. One Letter, however,idated the iGs h, says, that the convoy had been compelled to pia back again by contrary winds. A Letter from Petersburg!) dated the 2.1 J states, that new and important advantages,had been obtained by the Rtirisians over the Turks, and that Preliminaries of Peace had actually been signed be tween Russia and the Porte. Possibly the next ac counts may givii us anorhy contradictiOn upon this subject, respecting which we have already had sr) many contradictory statements. From a Note transmitted by the Emperor of Aug trig to the Stadthulder of Lower Austria,it, is mani fested beycnd all doubt that French troops are and have been marching through the Austrian territo rieS. The marching of theseiroops in such a dited- . , lion can scarcely have any other object than the cotnineucement. of hostilities with Russia, The Duke of Yourt will remove to-morrow from !he 'Horse. G uarda to York House. The Earl of Mostta returned on Tuesday night to his house in Sr. James's place, from Leicestershire. The Adjourned Sittings of the Court of King's Be,.ch•are fixed for the 7th of next month. M. Couturiers, uho recently escaped from the French 'coast on board the AterTreetty man of war, has been Owed in charge Of Mr. Hu NTF.R, the mes senger, and is at peseta in his house, by order of the Secretary of State.. A private letter from Boston describes Congress as split into three parties :—" one. is ter war with England, another for an armed commerce, and a third for a Most rigorous enforcement of the restric tive system with both Belligerents.".. Br the American ship Symmetry, Capt. MORTON, of New York, which art ived at Fymouth, we learn, that a day or two before she left St. Mary's, there was an account received Of a ecvere hurricane having been experienced at Charlestown, which lasted P 2 hours, and blew with most incredible fury.. I.lp- Wards of fifty houses were blown down, and a great number off persona were buried in their ruins. Al though it rained excessive= hard at the time, the wind did not , abate: many ships were chive') on shore, and many more went down at their anchors ; the greater part of the crews of the latter perished, such was the violence of the tempest. • Government, it is said, are about purchasing the spacious and very complete mansion of ./oniv MAY, Esq. of Deal, for the future residence of the Port Admiral at that place; This has long been a most desirable objet ; for the very limited accommoda tions heretofore afforded the gallant Officers, Com mantling. in Chiet in the Downs station, have cer tainly been inadequate to the dignity , and respeaa bility of ihe.appoiutment. It is alsp supposed to be in the Contemptation of Government to eelarge and improve the Dcick-yard at Deal, by the ereaiun 'of a pier and formation of a basin, The ground con tiguous to the yard has been surveyed fur that, pur pose, and the occupiers are in daily expectation of notice to remove. These improvements are taped for by the great' akldition made. to the Nortli. Sea • fleat, .which rendezvouses in the DoNlfg, and'shaw ing all its supplies from • Deal, consequently, ocea sionira vast increase to duties of the Dock-yard.. We cannot omit this opportunity for paying a tribute of applause for the extraordinary and unprecedented dispatch with which the North gta fleet, under the command of. Admiral YOUNG, was completed in naval stores, and re-eqnipped, on their late arrival in the Downs from aft the texel. It is an absolute tact, that through the unremitting and excessive exertions of the Stole-keeper and his officers, la sail of the line, besides frigates and small craft,were complete for .sea, in every thing' required from the Dockyard, in two days. To those who are ac quainted with the difficulties of conveying theiteavy stores off to the ships in the Downs, it will appear almost inpredible. We have no hesitation in say tog it is unprecedented, and provers what, on is press ing occasioe, may be accomplished by energy and zeal for the public sei vice.
