lis surrendered to the victorious Huisian anus so

kautensky, has, with a bulletin, Seto the keys of
that furtre.., and seven stand of culours taken sear
Turno. There were found at Nicopolis Go !nem, of
c•aanoo."

PANICOWA, NOY. 19.

The Scotian Senate, assembled at Deliqrade, has
made known (by the consent of Field' Marshal
Count imensky) to the Commandant-General 01
the Nation, and to all the Generals, that the Rus-
sians have concluded with the Reis Effendi a sus.
pension of arms, the articles of which they pro-
mise to observe religiously ; and iu cons►quence,
all hostility must cease on the part of the Serviette.
Many divisions have already quitted the camp at
Deligrade, and returned to their respective distracts.
We learn that theVizirr of Travanik. A letnin Abra-
ham Pioche, who was not able to receive intelligence
of the suspension of Grins, on account of the great
distance at which he was itt Bosnia, was again en-
deavuuriag to penetrate to Swonik.

STOCKHOLM, DEC. 14.

For seminal days past reports hove been iu circu-
lation respecting the intentions of • neighbour.
ing Power, in certain propositions made lately to
Nor Government ; sod it has been said, that our
present friendly relations with that Power were like-
ly to cease, unless those propositions were agreed to
in tofu. Flowerer respectable the quarter may be
from whence the reports alluded to have proceeded,
there is no reason to suppose that any further mea•
sures connected with the said propositions will be
adopted. previous to the arrival of a Courier shortly
expected from Paris.

GOTTENBUICII. DEC. 17.

Her Royal Hizhneas the Crown Princess is ex-
'riled here on the 24th inst.; it is not certain that
the Prince will arrive to meet her, Ins he will most
probably wait fur the Gamer now expected from
Paris, whose arrival will determine • much more
important question than the departure of the Prince
from the capital. The Ecclesiastics! and Military
Authorities. troops, &c. have to-day taken the
oath of allegiance to the Crown Prince.

STILAMIUMD, DCI'. 4.
A circular letter has made its ■ppearauce. ad-
dressed by Ramo Wetterstedt. Swedish Arch-Chsa-
cellar. to the Swedish Ministers at Foreign Courts,
stating the reasons which have compelled His She-
dish Majesty to declare war against Great Britaie.
The leading cause assigned is, His Majesty's wish
to convince the Emperor of the French, and the
public at large. that the reports industriously circu-
lated of a secret understanding subsisting between
the Swedish and British Gorerninenta„ tending to
favour the trade in British manufactures and Colo-
nial produce. were altogether destitute of founds-
hien.

"Matters remain much in the same state as when
the hut picket sailed. Mimeos appears to be
strengthening himself at ►Santarem. Our army is
in the same position in his front. General Hill is
on the left bank of the Tagus. and the several
corps of irregulars. which are in the rear of the
tansy, are daily gaining strength. We are as-
sated there are fall 15,000 men in Coimbra.—The
enemy made an attack a few days ago on the isle
of Leon. but were repulsed with great Wes ; WO also
lost some men and officers, but no doubt the pato-
enters have already reached you from► Cadiz.
" Major Frowick. of the Buffs. was killed this
week in attacking about 100 French with only 30
Portuguese chanters; he beat the amity. and
took from them • coosoderable quantity of cattle.
bat the Major was unfortunately *mortally wounded,
and seven men killed."
