An expedition from this and the neighbouring
ports appears to be nct far distant. Such prepara-
tions are cnaking, but with the utmost silence, as

were never known in this city during the whole ware ••„„.
A great number of troops have been imperceptibly
collected in tins city and its vicinity, and along the
French coax, which it seems very probable are in,
tended fur a much more important object than the
mere deface of the coast, and more troops are still
expected. It is ne: ea:iy for the most profound po.
litician to penetrate the plans of our wise gonna)
meat; but it is possible that the English Ministry
may find cause to repent their having sent the flower
of their troops and their best fleets on distant expo.

Our Journals contain the following article :
" There is talk at Paris of a closer union of the
different sects of the Christian religion, agreeable to
the doctrine taught byttheir great Founder• and such
as is requisite for our enlightened age. A great re-
formation is intended in particular in tfie Jewish
worship ; and as the rights of citizens have been se-
cured to that sect, it will be provided by wise laws
that they shall renounce the old forms which separate
them from their fellow-catizeus."

On the Sth, an English frigate, commanded by
Capt. Stuart, anchored in the road of Tray*.
rnunde. He permits all vessels to sail out and in-
ward, and contents himself with making the IMAM
tern of the vessels come on board the frigate. He
informed Capt. Plessentin, who has arrived from
Riga. that he has no orders to treat the Lubeck
shi,,s as enemies, but was merely direded to block-
ade the Danish ports. It is probable that this fri-
gate is destined- to blockade Neustadt. A boat
from the frigate put on shore at Travemunde for
provisions, and a party of French hussars were
immediately sent to take the crew ; it is thought,
however, that they escaped. A commission is
appointed at Kiel to examine ail wet chandize, in
order to discover English property. Ships already
loaded must submit to this investigation, and until
it takes place are not permitted to sail.

Letters from the Wand rehmerrn, dated the 3.1,
state, that the preceding day there was an etion
with the English off the town. They cached to cut

abandon thei. enterprise. •
