obstinacy, instead of merely declaring that the Allied Powers
would not lay them down until the peace were concluded.
The private letters from Frankton continue to matt
that negotiations are secretly carried on. It has even bees
asserted that CAVLAINCOWIT bad been sent tnthat city with
BUONAPARTE'S counter-proposals, and the arrival of th*
Russian General Pozzo DI BURGO from Frankfort, coupled
with these circumstinces, and his introduction, to Lord

CASTLEREAGH, with %%horn he had an interview of three

hours, seems to favour the supposition, that NAPOLEON'S

ollstinacy and pride have sunk with his fortunes, and that
contrary to every expectation, he has accepted the .basic
laid down by the Allies for negotiating a peace. This de-
termination will appear less incredible, on considering the
difficulties which he evidently encounters in his attempt to
raise the last oidered 350,000 conscripts. These difficulties are
forcibly deliicted in the Circular issued by the Grand Judge

_
of France, to all the Judges and tribunals in that country, call-
ing upon them in the most earnest manner to exert their in-
iluence over the people, in order to complete the levy. Such
au address, on such an occasion, is a new feature in BVOt4 A-
P A RT Cs policy, and shows at once the extent of his dangers
and that of his fears, for when did he before condescend to
cow t the support of his people, or when did he find it ne-
cessary to issue more than the word of command to obtain
whole armies ?
GENERAL INTELLIGENCE OF THE WEEK.

Thursday, Government received a bulletin of the Crows
Prince of Sweden, dated Buitzenburg, on the 30th ultimo,
in which he states, that the Swedish at my, together with
the corps of Lutiow, has passed the l'alhe. It enumerates a
succestihn of triumphs at Doesburg, Zutphen, Zoltcamp.
Campen, Groningen, Carlsberg, Blexen, Stade, and
llorneburg, all of which places were taken. flarbourg was
closely sutrounded. Stettin bad capitulated, and Holstein
was about to be cleared of the enemy. Government are said
to have received dispatches of a more recent date than this
bulletin. Davoistst, it is asserted, was dislodged from the
Steignitz, and had fallen back upon Hamburgh, the Crowa
Prince was advancing to Lubeck. The Swedish bulktin
gives an intimation that it was still open to the King of
Denmark to accept the tarms offered by the Allies, and thus
prevent his people from being exposed to that hostility in
which 'his connection with France would otherwise involve
!bent. Whether new terms have been offered to the Danish
Court is not stated. There are also some passages of import-
ance in the bulletin with reference to the desire of the Allies
for Peace. The answer of Buonaparte to his Senate is con-
sidered as evidence that he does not wish for peace, and an
opportunity is thus taken, in expressions studiously general.
but yet :he object of which cannot be mistaken, to separate
him from the French nation. and to call upon the latter to
assist the Allies in carrying into efflct their wish for peace.
'a The Emperor Napoleon (says the bulletin) does not wish
for peace : Europe does : and she must therefore obtain it
by force of arms. Let us hope Mat the zoishs of Me Frenck
will unite with those of Pstropr. The continuance of the war
is thus officially, by the Clown Prince, ascribed to the per-
sonal act of liuonaparte.

on Thursday, Paris Papers to the 12th ioqt. arrived, but
their contents are unimportant. Whilst some article, state
that the A flied Armies are. at a considerab:e distance front
the Rhine, others admit that they ale so cicsc as to have as-
sailed the fort of Kehl, opposite Strashurgh ; aod that !he
Austrian Hussars and Cossacks were on the frooti..rs.
We may therefore very shortly expect to hc.ir vf most lin-
_portant operations in that quarter. (in the 2ai iu4t a cor
