..VIENNA, MAY 10.—Letters from Trieste, the
Credit of which is undoubted, bring the agree-
able intelligence from Dalmatia, that the occasion of
a new war between France and Austria • is happily
retnoved, as 'the Emperor •of Russia, in order to
rescue our Government from that distressing situa-7.
tion, • had ordered 'his Troops, who occupied the for 7
tresses at the Mouth of the Catai-o, again to give
them up to the Austrian Commissary, that they may
be ceded to/the French, agreeably to .the terms of
the Treaty of Presburgh. The delii-ery by our
Commissary has already taken. plaCe.
It seems now to be believed that there will be a ge-
neral Peace on the Continent, which must at length
produce one with England ; though it is not easy to
conceive the basis on which the latter can be found-
ed.' The reports of Peace, which have been confi-
dently circulated yeSterday and to-day, have already
produced an advantageous effeEt on our State Paper;
which has risen 3 per cent. It has been remarked,'
that the Imperial Agent bought a considerable gum,.
tity of it this morning.
HA MBUR Gu, MAY 10.—His Imperial Majesty the
EMperorof Russia, is understood to have offered his
mediation for the adjustment of the differences be-
tween Prussia and England, and between Prussia and
Sweden. •

On the Frontiers of Prussian Pomerania little
attention seems to be 'paid to the Swedish military
preparations. Some of the battering cannon have'
been ordered to be kept in readiness, but nothing
farther has been done. The Prussians Seem to wait
for the first hostilities to proceed from the side of
Sweden.

The Ports of Embden and Lubec are excepted
from the orders for shutting -the other Prussian Por6,
and the entrance and departure of English Vessels is
permitted. ' _ _ _

This number of the Correspondenten contains
three articles, inserted by direction of the King of
Sweden, respeEting. the late proceedings in Lauen-
burgh. The first is the Proclamation of Count
LOWEIVHIELM, dated Ratzburgh, April 13, an-
nouncing his orders to defend the territories oc-
cupied by the Swedish Troops, and under their pro-
tection.

The following horrid murder is stated in The New
York Gazette of the 18th .ult. to 'have been perpe,
trated in America the beginning of that month :
A man who lived near the Dry-Lands having to pay
the Sum of 8001. called on a neighbour who kept a
public-house, and mentioned the circumstance, ob-
serving, that he had the whole amount at home, ex-
cept 151. which he wished to borrow. 'The land-
lord agreed to lend it him, but said that he could
not give it till the next day, when he, should go out
to colle& some debts, when his neighbour might
call and receive what he wanted. He came at the
appointed time, and, having waited the whole even-
ing, was prevailed on by the landlord's wife to retire.
to bed in her house, she promising to call 'him on
the return of her husband. He fell fast asleep, but
was soon disturbed by terrifying dream ; on Which
he awoke his bed-fellow, a pedlar, who had taken.
up his residence there for the night, and informed
him of the'circumstance. The latter endeavoured
to pacify him; but he informed liirnthat. be had
dreamed his hoUse-was on fire, and his wife and
children enveloped in the flames. Ile therefore
determined on going home immediately; and the
pedlar feeling interested in the dream, agreed, to
accompany him, taking with him a pair of excellent
,pistols well loaded. The night being dark, they
were alarmed on approaching the house by a bright
light in the lower apartment; and on approaching
the window, they beheld three meri with blackened
faces counting out money on the table. Each of
the speaators then singled out his man, and shot
two of the plunderers dead; the third was met at
the door, but being overcome with a conscious guilt,
,he made no resistance, and was dispatched. The
agitated husband then went into his bed-chamber,
and found his witi; rind three young children welter-.
ing in their blood, having apparently been murdered
in their sleep. On washing the faces of the robbers,
they proved to oe near neighbours of the owner of
the house, and.were intimately .conneaed with his
