LON DON,
MONDAY, it:L.lr 13.

Captain LAPItHOTIfIta, of His MAJISTY's 11:”.?
of war Orrsies, of 16 guns, arrived at fear o'cices
yestershy at the Admiralty, with dispatches /ices
the Baltic. We understand that they bring
cates of those from Lord HUTCHINSON, the anis.:
of which we ariuounced on Saturday, containiry,
the details of the battle of Friedland, and al,o
some later intelligence. A Cabinet Council is sari.
mooed for this day, at which all the Members
are panicalarly requested to attend; when it it
supposed the intAligence received by Captain LA*
PC:OTIIR lc, Will be taken into consideration. A
Messenger was sent off in the afternoon to the Kira.
at Wiadsor, with the substance of the dispatch*.

A Mad from Tonningen arrived on Saturday,
with letters and papers from Akona and Ilansburgl.
to the sth. Paris papers to the 3d were al,o e-
eeived at the same time. An Armistice bztween
France and Russia was signed on the £2l last,
and ratified by the Emperor A LES•RDZI on the
£3d. A copy of it, as published by the Frer.cl/4
Minister at Hamburgh, is given in s subsequezt
column. l'he Paris papers contail the ElGNlt[iit
Bur tans of the Grand A,rmy, dated Tddt, t'as
19th, to which are annexed two Notes, from which
it appears that the armistice was 61111 d for by It:::
eia.—lt is also a separate arenistice, although fr,
the Russian Note we sbouid presume she wool
have preferred a joint aegociation. At the its:
the ratification of the armistice, the ?repair
ALBIANDLII was at Tauroggen on the Sserzuws,
about 30 English miles from Tilsit, at which p!ace
Ben A Aare still remained on the 23d. On Satur•
day we ann:unced the arrival of a Messeng, r
with dispatches from Lord HUSCIIISSON. They
ate dated Memel, the 24th last, and detail the
various operations which led to the armistice.—
In the affairs of the 2th, 6th, and 10th Jaw. the
Russians had decidedly the advantage. The battle
of the 14th WAS contested with the greatest obni•
nary, and vi Tory alternately favoured the opposie;
armies, but finally tested with the French. Thee
loss in killed and wounded exceeded 13,000 user•
The loss of the Russians, including prisoners, es•
ceeded 20,000,

The Russian army, on the 22d, amounted to
103,000 men, from w!.ich it appears that it lost be.
tween :"t.) and 40,000 men during the three preced-
ing weeks. Reinforcements were crowding to the
Russian army ; a corps of upwards of YO,OOO men
!tad, un 22d, arrived on the Swola ; anut:icr
body was at Rosen, and *third at %Vilna, making.
in the whole, upwards of 60.000 men.
Such is the substance of the dispatches front ltd
Hu routosow.—The King and Queen of PRUS3I •
had retired to Memel, where the Emperor An a:•K•
Dlll was expeSed early in the present month.
The Armistice is stated to be accompanied h; 3
Private Treaty of Several Articles, referring t.)
Turkey, and the other Allies of France, and
to Sweden. _ _

our Expedition is stopped in the Scund "
Another private letter, dated liamburgh..luly
3, also says T..e French :li.tisser Boutisses
ha received a eourier from the French Minister at
Cvenlivgen, with dispatches, dated June 29, an-
nouncing the arrival of the first part of the British
etildition off the Sound. It is also known. that
etc Danish Government is constantly pestered
w::h French Notes, to ,oduce it to give up Holstein
ani Schleswig till peace, and to shut the Sound.
That little state, however, insists on presetting its
neutrality. It is a fad, that the Frerch have no-
tified to the Danish Court, that the neutrality it.pte-
tvded 'gas a mne shadow, as they well knew that
the English were as much at home in Denmark as
fn,y were in their own country. Some say the
french Mori,er has protested sgainst the passage of
toe British squadron through the Sound."

thi f..turday the following ships, at Portsmouth,
moved orders, by the Telegraph, to pi (need with
ail possible dispatch to thellowns,where Sir Seams.
Huue, nal take the command of them, and hoist
his broad pend sot on boa rlcthe ('evert', viz.—The
Maids, 74; Genie, , 74 ; 31a ,e 74 ; Bruns 91 4p 74;
5.74-flee', 74 ; and C. eawr, 74.
We have not learned what farther intelligence Go-
vernment may have received respes'lng the Ezpadi-
non ; but combining all these circumstances, it is
supposed, in the best informed circles, that Sir SA.
sees Hooo's squadron is to proceed direltly from
the Downs, to force the passage of the Sound, if
°sonar), When the first division sailed, it appears
that Ministers did not even apprehend a shew of
resi •tar.e.: tr,im the Danes. as the armed force which
accompanied it vivid act only of the DiseatF4 and two
other stoops of IS guns each. The opposition of

Dennssfk, if indeed she has refused a p,.asage, has

dnust been oceasiona by the mein suceosses of
the Frenen in Poland is a result that might
be reasonably cepedrcl. If welt unfortunately shall
prove the fa. 9. Denmark must be added to the
Wt of cur enemies upon the Continent.

It is reporzed that Lord Gaittwts will immedi-
ately retire froM the command of the Channel
feet. and that kis Lordship will be sneceeded by
Admiral Sir Eaasstus Gowan. An express was'
yesterday sent of to de. gallant Baronet. who is
tow at Cambridge.

Yesterday mart.!ag. His MAJESTY. Princesses
AUGUSTA, SOPIIIA. and Alas Ate, accompanied by
Ladies R•DHOR and J. TarTaws, Generals CA T-

Cooasms. from the 119th Psalm, and 60 h v-rse,
they afterwards went to Frogmore, for His MA.IISTT
to dine,where they were met by tha QL't EN. and Prin-
cesses Etta/tarry and Maay. The R3ral Horse

The articles of Tile Courier are so obviously writ.
ten for party purposes, they require no expositre,and

JCR of them, however. which is made prominent by
the remarks of a weekly Pahliettiftfl of Seturday,we
find the following passage : We have heard of
a strong with expressed to revive the Rockingham
Club, and it has been said, that a speech was made
at Lord MILTON', dinner. is which the honour of
being a member *of Parliament was declared to be a
711130 f honour to that of being a member of
0-•• Risacinghara Club." The speech alluded to
made by Mr.SIIIRICIPAN, RA this paragraph is a
misrepresentation. Mr. SlttillOAP said he had
the honour of being a Member of the Rockingham
Club for two years before he became a Member of
Parfienseat but he did not say nor insinuate that
the honour of being a Member of Parliament was a
sminor honour to that of being a Member of the
Rockingham Club.

grotto. and the staircase was arched up to the se-
cond floor, with Rowers, consisting of roses, honey-
