rxricicT OF A LETTER FROM SCHWERIN, DEC. 2.

'`` General MIC.IAUD has taken possession of our
country in the name of the Emperor NAPOLEON,
because three sc,ni of the Duke were in the ser
vice of the enemy of France--7because last year a
passage had been granted to the Russian and Swe-
dish troops, who had been received with joy—and
because Russia Las occupied Moldavia and Walla-
chia. The occupation, however, is only prOvisional,
until a peace _with Russia. The Duke set out for
Berlin the day after that event with a view to ob-
tain,..if possible, some alleviation of our lot. We
exped Mars'hal MORTIER in a few days, and with
him the definitive decision upon the destiny which is
.reserved for us."

MONDAY, DECEMBER 29, 180 G.

YESTERDAY three Mails from Husum arrived,
which contain some very interesting Intelligence,
Which we have extratled at great length, but we
are prevented by want of room from offering any-
Comments upon it. 4 appears th‘at ithe French
have' crossed the Vistula, and taken possession- of
Praga. We are sorry to find that Thorn, GlOgau,
and. Breslau have , surrendered to the French 3 the
two former were severely bombarded. —.lt lits
quite clear that no battle took place between the
Russians and French on this side.of the Vistula.
T.:Jere were, however, some skirmishes, in oup
of. which it is obvious from ' DAVOUST'S Let-
ter, that the French 'were defeated. BONAPARTI:
has at length announced his intention of ere6ting Po-
land into a Kingdom, but the name of the new Scr-
vereign is not jet announced.

WE received this morning- Jamaica Papers to the
16th ult. from which we have made several interest-
ing Extrads, which will be found in oiir subsequent

Columns.

THE eloquent and argumentative speech. of Lord
.Holvlcx, on the firt day of the Scisioti, contains
so complete a refutation of all the charges which
were urged against Government, that tne Papers of
Opposition have no resource . but iu mis-statement
at Misrepresentation. It is alleged that " it would
have teen as liberal to have abstained from entering
znto any remarks upon the suljea of Sir H. Popham.
and Sir D. Baird till they had an opportunity of de-
fending themselves." Lord Howic:t. did not origin-
ate this discussion, but was unquestionably entitled
to reply, in his own vindication, to the observations
and severe animadversions which were made by Mr.
CANNING. His LOrdS,llip avowed, that therecall of
Sir H. P6PHAM was his own act, and. that he ad-
vised The recall of Sir D. BAILIE,. • He fairly stated
the reasons which occasioned the recall:of those Of-
ficers, without in any degree precluding their future
justification, if they shall be enabled to advance any
adequate grounds of defence. They had apparently
trabsgressed their obvious duty,_ by undertaking,
without the orders or knowledge' of Goveinment, a.
remote Ekpedition, totally extraneous to the trust
which was confided to them, and far exceeding,'- the
liMits of that discretionary power which may, be
safely vested in a Commander. To effect this ob- •
jest, they had stripped the Cape of the troops neces-
sary to its defence; and had left. it almost incapable
of making any resistance to the attacks of an-Ene-
my. While they were arranging this enterprise, a
Vessel, which had been dispatched for the East In-
dies, arrived at the Cape, where the money and
forces, w hick at home were deenied necessary for
a different purpose, were diverted 'from their dest-

' hat' to promote tl:e success of the Expedition
h.cir was meditated against Buenos Ayres. This
conduci, which was manifestly incompatible vita
the the just authority and even existence of a Govern-
ment at home, was the cause of their recall, and is
a most satisfactory justification of those who advised
it. Mr:CANNING commenced and courted the dis-
ctission, and thuS compelled Lord HOWICK to state
these circumstances, or Submit to the censures which
were passed upon 'him. The case of Sir J. STUART'S
Expedition to Calabria has been cited as a parallel*
instance, but 'surely it (toes not require any effort of
reasoning to ' discover that there is no analogy
either in principle or circumstance. The enter-
prise. which led to, the Battle of Maida was in
no respe& a deiation from the nature.of the, ser-
vice in which Sir J. STUART was employed, and
obviously fell within the bounds of that discretion
which a Commanding Officer is fairly entitled
to exercise. 'Lord Howicn's allusion to .the Pa-
triotic Fund has been another subjea of misrepre-
sentation ,and source of cavil. In adverting to Sir
H. POPHAM'S communication toe he manufaeturers,
his Lordship 'did certainly express his disapprobation
of that Institution, which it is feared must be pro-
.
Pounced impolitic, and under some circumstances
might become dangerous, inasmuch as it seems to
encourage a disposition to swerve frolth that maxim
of. our Constitution which considers the Crowin as
the fountain of the public honours and rewards
which are due to military merit.
The accusations advanced against the. Naval Ad-
ministration were effeaually answered by the state-'
• meats of Lord HowrcK. Lordship observed,
tbatsthe Enemy's Squadron had been at sea for two.
months before the appointment' of the preient Ad-
ministration. The first sailed in the end of Ootober,..
and the other on the 11th of December. They cob,
sisted of eleven" Sail, which separated in two dif-
ferent destinations. Not a line of instru&ions was
left at the Admiralty to assist in tracing those Squa-
drons. Sir J. Ducxworurn terminated a glorious
cruize by the de.struaion.of one of these Squadrons,
and the Ships, composing the other
,had escaped
one by one. Measures had since been taken to,
prevent the sailing of any other Squadron, and these
- measures had been completely successful.. Only one
Squadron had ventured to put to sea, and of five.
Frigates, of which it consisted, four were taken.
No Ship had been able to re-enter the .Enemy's
harbourS without being chased.; and it was only in
a little port, almost inaccessible to Ships of War,

that the Vessel containing JEROME BONAPARTE had
been able to take refuge.
The charges which have been urged in refer,
ence to subje&s conne6ted with the late Negotia•
tion are totally disproved by the authentic Docu-
ments ,of the discussionS with , France, .and Lord
HowicK's exposition of the state of our relations
with Prussia. After the Message o the, 29th
of April,, Baron JAC.OIII remained- in this COlintrY
till the 15th of August, when no attempt at con-
ciliation had been made. • War with Prussia Was
undoubtedly a subje& of most serious concern and
regret, but the bc3tile disposition and positive -ag-
gressions of Prussia left this Country no alternative..
Will it be contended that we were bound to abstain
from negotiating with France because we were en-
gaged in a war with Prussia, or to forbear from de.•
manding the restitution of Hanover, because Prussia
had definitively occupied that territory ? Can it be
urged that we should have sacrificed our just
to the -faint prOsp6a of remote probabilities and
doubtful contingencies, and. for, such considerations
have relinquished our right for ever ? It cannot be
said that the Negotiation at Paris prevented this

Country from concerting warlike measures With
Prussia, as the Court of Berlin shewed no disposition
to such a concert. Baron KNOBELSDOBF, the Suc-
cessor of LuCCH,ESSINI, who was dismissed because
' he had incurred the displeasure of•BoNArARTE, had
never visited Lord LAUDERDALE at Paris, and it was
Teported that the disputes between Prussia and France •
were in a train of adjustment, till the day before th:lt
on which BONAPARTE set out to join the Army. On
the 19th of September a letter was received front
Mr. THORNTON, eti.closing a Communicatio❑ from
Baron JACOBI, who informed the Minister of Fo-
reign Affairs that he was Coming, to England in some
Public CharaEter, When Baron .TAcoßr did arrive,
his Propositions were unsatisfaaory; but the Em-
bargo was withdrawn from all Prussian Vessels, the
Adjudication of Prussian Prizes was suspended, and
the Blockade of the Prussian Ports was raised. , Lord
• Moarnm had also been 4ent to the Head-Quarters
Qf His Prussian Majesty. Baron JACOBI did not
reach England till the 30th of September; he did
not wait upon Lord Howici till the itth of Oc-
- Acker,. and the Battle of Auerstadt was fought on the
14t h. • The designs of Prussia were not known at St.
Petersburgh till the 30th of Sept. and Gen. BEN-
, -KING3UN'S Army could notsbegin to march before the
ith of 06tober. These faEts most completely falsify
the charge of goading Prussia into hostilities against
' • -
France; and prove the impossibility of sending a
-.large tip co-operate in the War on the Contiheut.

without a 4110 consideration of the relations
which subilsted between this Country and Prnisia,
it had been resolved to afford succour which was not
invited, and which might not be willingly, accepted=-,
if, in such circumstances, a force had been precipi-.
tately dispatched to the Continent, what security
presented itself that Prussia would not purchase the
sanEtion of France- to the Northern Confederation-
by betraying our Army to the Enemy) The faEts
which we have stated require no farther comment,
and afford incontestible evidence of the judicious
and provident condua of GovernMent. The peru-
sal of Mr. CANNING'S prolix Amendment, and Lord
HOWICK'S most able and impressive Reply, must
produce a universal corivielion, that Charges more
causeless were never preferred by'any Opposition,
or more substantially refuted by any Ministers.

Nine. Sail of the Line and three Frigates were
ready for'sea at Brest on the gth instant.
The Latona Frigates from Cork, with a Fleet tin-
der convoy also the Orpheus Frigate, from Ports-
meuth, with a convoy, are arrived at ,Jamaica.

Service th'ey went to Frogmore to dinner, where
they were met by .Her MAJESTY and Princess

On Saturday afternoon a Messenger arrived at
Lord Howicx's Office with dispatches from Mr.
ThotrisrroN, brought to,Yartnouth by -the Carrier
Cutter in five days from the Elbe.
His MAJESTY has been pleased to direa, that a
pension of tool. per annum be settled on Sir SAMUEL

tions? that the Aa which prohibited the inter-
course- of American Vessels with St. Domingo
was about to be 'repealed, at the, desire of the
French Minister, under whose ditation it. was en-
a&ed, in consequence of the trade having fallen en-
tirely into the hands of the English. •

Marshal MORTIER having pushed A strong corps
across the Peene, an occupied Stolpe, from whence
a small Swedish guard retired, the French after-
wards advanced to Lugershagen, where Baron
ARNIFELDT was posted with about three thousand
men; He .resisted, and defeated several attacks
of the enemy ; but deeming the post not tenable
against the accumulating force which were opposed
to him, he withdrew to Griefswald, and on the 10th
he had taken.a strong position about six. miles from
•
Stralsund.
On Saturday some letters were received in town
from Daptzic, by the Caledonia, arrived in the
River, which brings intelligence from thence to the
sth or \th of December. The four Russian divisions
had then formed a jun6lion on the Vistula, and were
joined by 40,000 Prussians, under the orders of
General KALEREUTII. The, King continued at
Osterode:.

Captain AlooKE understood before he sailed, that
the French had suffered very much from sickness
occasioned by. numerous privations, and almost con-
stant exposure to cold and wet. The Holpitals at
Posen and Guesna were .stated to contain 13,00 u
sick.

The insurrection in Poland has by to means
corresponded with the expeiitations of: BoNAPARTE.
The Woywodship of Lenezyc, which was most ac-
tive in the cause, and which seized that fortress'from
the Prussians, and defended it against them until
