ADMIRAL GAMIHER.

Intelligence has been, at length, received from
Admiral GAMDIIII. Letters, in the hand-writing
of the gallant Admiral, were received Lot night,
and forwarded to Mr. Pons. 'they were, we
understand, conveyed by tha same vessel that,
has brought two Gottenburgh Mails, which ar-
rived last night, with Lette• and Papers to the
22d last, and, of course, do not contain later intel-
ligence. The Guttenburgh Papers state, that the
English landed at six o'clock on the morning of the
ltith, at a small bay, called Wisbech, between Eki-

near and Copenhagen ; that a great firing was heard
until the evening of Monday the 17th ; and that on
t! :e 18th a Courier arrived at Helsingborg with
intelligence that Copenhagen had surrendered. Ac-
counts, however, from Gottenburgh of the Est.
announce the arrival of a Courier from Maimoe,
with aJvices that Copenhagen still helJ out on the
19th. The following is the intelligence brought by
the
GOTTENBURGH MAILS.

OOTTCNSUILO, •VO. 15.

By acconnts received this moniing from Copes-
hagen, we le:ten, that the English fleet has formed a
line of cireumvallation round the island of Zealand,
and the boats were out ready to land the troops.
All was, however, quiet until Tuesday last, when
the Crown Prince dirlived from Holstein, and pub=
lished a Proclamation, ordering every passible re:,
instance to be made ; but this could not be great, as
there were only between two and three thousand
troops in Copenitagen. He also sent the same even-
ing to Elsineur, and gave similar orders. The
English Minister, Mr. Garlike, is gone on a Mission
to Nient.l, and his successor, Mr. Taylor, is on board
the feet. Mr. Jackson Appears to have been the
Acting isiinistet. _ _
