.AUG. 21.

A tlamburgh mail arrived on Friday, which hrings an ac-
count of the arrival of the King of Prussia at Reilin on the
s;l► instant. His Majesty entered his capital previous to the
day on which he was expected, in order to avoid the pomp
of the reception for which arrangements had been made.—
ilia Majesty, however, approved of the application of these
preparat it) es as testimony of acknowlf dgment to the army
and its Chiefs, for their services, and a gland ceremony was,
in consequil,ce, to take place on the 7th.
A Dutch mail arrived Wednesday. The accounts by it
mention the at! ival of 'he British Commissioners at Ghent.

The Set retary of the American Legation had paid them a
visit of compliment, and !he first conferences were to take
place on the 9th. A cousldes able force is assembling in
Brabwit. It is said that the lit it ish troops to be employed
these will amount to 4senno, to which several Dutch and
Belgic corps will he added. The caose of this warlike atti-
tude in the utidst of peace is still uncertain, but the most
probable exp'anation is, that it is thought neees.:uy, lest re-
sis!ance should, on the part of any pus ti. altar st oe, he made
to the atrangements determined on by tlO Cong,ess
at
Vienna. Ti ere is, indeed, a rumout that the F.ench
vet n went wishes to oppose the annexation of Bratratit to
llol-
land, and it has been thoo,,ht worthy of remark, that the
Duke de Berri lately inspected the line of fortresses on the
French side, opposite to that along which the Duke of Wel-
lington is now mak;ng a tour, before he takes up his resi-
dence at Park The Freoch frontier is, however, fixed by
the tteaty of Paris, and thorig,h there nr.v beg many restless
spirits in France, who wo'r'd readily plunge their country
into war, it is to be supposed that the Government, even if
hosti:ely d sposed, which we are persuaded it is not, would
seek some other pretext, rather than violate a treaty, so.
lemnly gua!anteed by all the great Powers of Europe. Let-
ters from Frankfurt state, that a reconciliation has taken place
between Mutat and Buonaparte, and that many adyentul els
from various parts of Italy, and from Corsica, resort to the
latter at Ellya, who, it is added, is endeavouting by secret
intrigue in France, to excite discontent in that country. It
is said that the Pope intends to 2o to Vienna, to super intend
the interests of his States and the Choral at the Congress.
A mail arrived from Gottenburgh hr ings intelligence of
hostilities having at length commenced hctw(en Norway and
Sweden. The Swedish Admiral, Baron de Puke, set sail on
the -26:h ult. with his whole fleet, in older to attack the
Norwegian flotilla, stationed in the islands of Hyatt), but
the latter declined a contest, and retired into the Archipe-
lago, between the island of Ilvalo and Ft ederickstadt. The
Swedish troops then took possession of the Island of Ilvalo,
which is considered the key of the (;ulph of Christiana.
Mr. Fester has returned to Sweden from Copenhagen.
Two Ames lean privateers of rm:siderahle force have been
for some tittle pact cru7slug off Bristol with impunity. On
Sunday last, the Berwickshire packet, regular trader from
Cork to Bristol, Crosby, master, was taken off Lundy, by the
Prince of Neufchatel, plundered of every thing valuable, and
delivered up to the crew. They have also taken and destroy-
ed several other vessels.

The Adams American frigate whir h was waiting in a Fle-
mish port for ordeis firm the Republican Commissioners at
Client tr, sail fur ti,e United States, has rff•ci% ed those or-
ders, and set sail. The report is that she is proceeding
to obtain flesh powers for the American Coroissioners, those
they now plssess being insufficient. It is said, however, on
the other hand, that considerable progress has heen made in
the negotiation, and that to communicate this progress to
the Government at Washington is the purpose of her de-
parture.
