the result of these battles seas not known. That of
the former, we now understand, was adverse to the
Prince. A letter from Lubeck of the 3d inst. says—
" A great number of fugitives have arrived here
from the Mecklenburgh territory. At Neustadc-
Ebetswalde, the Corps of Prince Hort ENLOHE was
entirely beaten, and he himself taken prisoner."
The Correspondent of the Oth, however, states, that
the report of Prince Honer+ tOH a being taken pri-
soner does not rest on any authority. There is \no
doubt, however, that his corps was-defeated. •
Stettin, we understand, from private letters, has
surrendered. Private letters from Copenhagen, of
the Ist of November, add, that the English Consul
at Stettin, with his family, had arrived in a swift
sailing vessel. He left Stettin on the 30th of Oc-
tober, at which time the French were about to enter
the place.
The corps, under the. Dukes of WEIMAR and
Batruswicn-OeLs,was beaten at Plauen, and after
wards at Gastrow. There likewise had been some
adtions between this corps and the French, who were
in pursuit of it. On the 3d, a number of wounded
Prussians were brought into Rostock, who were
wounded in an anion near that place, between Sla-
venhagen and Maichin. The Swedish troops, which
were in Lauenburgh, to the number of above 2,000,
have marched through Lubeck, the neutrality of
which, circumstances did not permit them to respeB.
They proposed to take shippi:ig for Scralsund, and
had marched to Travemunde for that purpose, but
the wind was not favourable on the 34.

The accounts of their having entered Bremen,

A letter from Trieste, dated ()Sober 16, says
As Cattaro is still in the hands of the Russians
and Montenegrins, it is understood that a Convec-
tion has been entered into between France and
Austria, in consequence of which, the former power
is to possess Gortz and Gradiska, until Cattaro be
delivered, up. On this account, Brzunau will be
given tiff to the House or Austria."
A vessel has arrived from Cadit, which left that
port on the 25th of October. Letters have been
received by this conveyance, which state that the
Spanish Government had declared the country in
danger, and it was resolved to raise an additional
force of 150,000 men. Of this Cadiz was to fdrnish
1000 infantry, or .500 cavalry. The object of this
extraordinary armament has given rise to much
conjeflure.
A. letter from Frankfort, dated 09. 28, says—
" On the evening of the 26th, the first Prussian pri-
Elfurt

inners, who belonged to the gat times of Erfurt, ar-
rived here. They amounted to more than 5000
men, and were yesterday forwatded to Mentz. We
expea more here in a few days. A part of the
Caeemates in the town is prepared for their recep.
tion. Quarters are prepared tere for a part of the
Parisian guard. TM exp. ef Marshal Angereau
and Lances, which made a forced m arch of thirty
leagues through the forest of Thuringia, during
which they bad only a few hours rest, contributed
much to the great vielory of the 14th. It was net
until atter the sudden appearance of these two corps,
each 35,000 strong, that the Prussian Generals
reckoned on the battle's being decisive."
A letter from Voightland, dated Wt.. 14, says,—
" The third 13:seashell regiment of infantry having
approached a village nor far from Schleit:, required
a supply of bread and forage. The inhabitants,
however, instead of complying with their desire,
armed themselves with scythes and other weapons,
and being assisted by the boors of three neighbour-
ing villages, attacke.i the Lieutenant w:iu made the
requisition, wounded him, and killed some of his
men. In consequence of this, General hlezzanelli
ordered the village to be suriouniel and burnt
down by three companies of infantry, and a squa-
dron of cavalry, under the cammand of hl..j n. la
Roche."
