WATE CORRESPONDE:XE.

BREMEN, .Aucusr 22.

Ma numerous political reports in circulation here,
about the misunderstanding betwixt the Cabinet of
' Berlin and j3ONAPAIITE, have been for some time
so extremely contradiCtory,
.that it was impossible
to give any certain information on the subjeCt.—
However, it is now, clearly seen that the KING of
PRUSSIA' will neither give up East Friezland nor
Hanover without resistance, notwithstanding the
tlireatening movements of the French Armies in
Bavarian and Wirtemburgh, and even the liberal pro-
mises of indemnification,in Saxony.—That he has
assembled a great force on the Banks of the Ems,
to resist any attempts on East Friezland, is certain,
as numerous trains of artillery and ammunition have
been for some time passing through Quackenbruc.
The Regiment of Grevenitz, and, some squadrons
of Hussars, which have been cantoned at Bremer-
, lehe and Cuxhaven, have passed through this City'
last Tuesday morning, upon their march to join the
main Army at Hanover ; and the money in the
Bank at Embden was escorted through this City
yesterday morning, in twelve waggons, by an
Ofii-
cer and thirty Dragoons, 'who were making 'all
possible haste to Berlin. The circuitous route which
they took, through Verden, plainly spews they con-
sidered the dire& road to' be 'dangerous, as the
French are certainly in Vlotho, which is only about
five miles from Minden. The Garrisons of Hameln
and Nieuburgh are ordered to be put in the most
formidable state of defence, and the preVisioning of
them are carrying on with unusual activity. A
great quantity of rice was sent from here a few days
ago,, in waggons, to both places, in case the French
' shotild be able to penetrate through Minden,. and
cut off the navigation of the Weser.
There are still remaining here a few Compa-
nies of Infantry; in the villages near Vegesac, and

as they are posted along the banks of the river, some
pretend to say, they have orders to intercept English
goods ; but others, with much more plausibility; Are
of opinion, that they will only remain a few days to
pick up the deserters who have remained hehincl;' or
perhaps to keep the persantry in check, who are
well known to, be extremely disaffeaed,, and po
wonder, considering the inquisitorial measures they
have lately suffered, and the cruel requisition of
3500 horses, which are now levying in the Country,
with uncommon severity, Witheut fizapg any price
or period of payment.

It was'reported here yesterday morning, and not
yet contradiaed,, that H4oowyr2 was
.I.lt to Span-
dau, in consequence of a discovery of some private.
correspondence with the French Government.—!Se-
veral respeet2hle Letters mention the circumstance,
but I think the report not sufficiently confirmed.*
It is also said this morning that the EMPt:ROR. of
Russut has refused to ratify the Treaty concluded
at Paris betwixt D'Ou.sart, and the Vreti,:ii Govern-
ment.—Though this report also wants confirmation,
yet the general recruiting throughout the whole of
his Imperial Majesty's States, seem to give it a 4 air
of great probability.

THE THEATRI.,77The intrinsic merit of The Clan-
destine Marriage, and the novelty 'of FAWcErr's
' Lord Oglel,y, drew a numerous Atidience last. night
to the Haymarket Theatre. ,FAwcETT.liad an ardu-
ous task' to perform in taking what had for near
forty years been deemed the. ckeldtetpire of a popn
tar Ador but he has no reason to regret that he
entered upon the attempt. It w9udd have been
hazardous for him at first to deviate from the man-
ner of KING, as that manner seemed to have esta-
blished the general conception of the charaaer. He
tllerefore kept to th 6 outline of that Performer, butgave many incid..4 tal touches of original merit.
There was much to praise as to the general cited
of the performance, and the chief ground of oh-
jedion arose froth the strength of his voice, firconsidering the extremely debilitated state of the an-
tiquated de4achd, his lungs 'Might naturally be sup-
posed
to have decayed with his oilier powers. ,
this, however, was FAWCETT'S first performance of
a very difficult character, and ".in which he had to
contend against strong prepossestiion, it would be.
invidious to dwell on any objectionable point, par-
ticularly as we have no- doubt, from his success alto—
gether, that he will harmonize the general qualities
of the part in his future efforts, so as to render it
one of the most able and effective representations of
the modern stage. He reeeived• great• applause
throughout. WEWITZER was excellent in Canton,
and was muck applauded. Mrs. GLOVER was to
have performed Miss Sterling, but, being indisposed,
an apology was, made, and it 'was assigned to Mrs.
TAYLOR, who certainly did not want the 4ffeaation
necessary to the charaCter. The rest of the Per-
fOrmers manifested no great claims taapprobation.
Miss Smut' is now performing at Southampton,
where her talents are 'warmly mtronize&by the
and where she. has the additional. advantage
of the most respekthble private .conoiekions.
Mrs. PoWgt.i, of Drury-lane Theatre, is now
playing with TROTTER'S Company,' at .Sbnth-End,

It is said that COOKE, in Richard, when kneeling
to Lady Anne, at Liverpool, found himself unable to
get upon 4'o legs again, he quietly laid down, and

" Here will we rest to-night !"
