A delay which has occurred in the intended jour-
'my of the Russian Emperor, induces his Majesty to
proceed from Memel without stopping, and on this
long journey to stop only one night, which will be
at Landaherg, ou the Wartha. All the nights'
lodgings bespoken at other 'places are there-
fore countermanded. Ills M.ijelny's arrival in
Berlin is calculated will be on the 16th, in the
evening. The Secretary of State, Count Nes-
srlrode, was to trace St. Petersburg!' on the 14
of September; but as lie first visits his estates
in Livonia, he will arrive at Aix-la-Chapelle
only at the tame time as the Emperor. His Royal
Highness the Hereditary Grand Duke of Meck-
lenburg Schwerin arrived here on the 6th from
Schwerin, and immediately after his bon, Prince
Paul of Mecklenburg, from Geneva. They have
taken up their abode in the Royal Palace in the
apartments prepared for them.

In the yenr ISIS, the Prussian IVar Department
made a contract with Baron Champin, at Paris, to
establish a gunpowder manufactory in Prussia.
Great and unforeseen obstacles arising to the ear•
cutiors of the project, a suitable indemnity has been
offered to the Baron, but the latter appealing to his
contract, demands so large a MM, that it cannot be
acceded to, and the affair will therefore is. all pro-
bability come before the Chamber of Ju.ticr. The
public is the mote curious to learn the issue, as the
question is to do justice to a foreigner, even with a
considerable sacrifice, but at the same time to skew
that his demands are extravagant. It is well known
that the Baron has hitherto received a large sum,
awaiting the fulfilment of the contract.
