The Hamburgh Mail, due on Sunday. arrived at
a late hour on Monday. with letters and papers to
the 30th. The accounts from Augsburgh and Frank-
fort. brougf t by the Mail, which arrived en Satur-
day last, announcing the evacuation of the Mouths
of the Cattail?, by the Russians, and the accommo-
dation of the difference with Austria. upon that sub-
jeft, are pronounced. in an article from Munich, un-
founded and premature. This article is dated the
17th, two Bays later than the Afigsburgh account. and
adds, that the answer from Sc. Petersburgh to the
Austrian representations upon the seizure of Cat-
taro, which must be decisive of the question. coall
not be cap...610cl to arrive before the 17th instant.—
Letters from the Banks of the Maine, dated April
22, confirm this intelligence, and confidently as-
sert, that the i:ephew of TALL 44444 to, the al-
leged bearer of the news of the evacuation of
the Mouths of the Cattaro by the !lesbians, only
carried to Paris the consent of Austria to per ;zit, to
consequence of the want of transports, 40,(e00
French troops to march through Austrian Istria au&
Croatia, into Dalmatia.
The Swedish troops that were in Lauenbrg have
continued their march to Swedish Porturania ; but
there is no farther account of the skirmish near Rata.
burg between the Swedes and Prussians.
The English Minister, Mr. JACKSON. remained
at Berlin on the 27th, although he bad received his
passes ; but the indispasition of Mrs. Jaccsos may
account for this delay.
Letters from Vienna and Constantinople insinuate.
that Turkey begins to be jealous of Russia, and to
entertain a growing friendship for France.
Letters from Hamburgh, dated April 28, stare
that the English Vice-Consul has gives ro-
tice to the merchants of Hamburgh and Altona,
that all ships which were laden before the 25J of
April, as also ships in ballast, on poi-luring the
necessary certificates. will be permitted to sail frora
the Elbe, and proceed on their voyages.
