QOTTENI3URGH MAILS.

GOTTENBUROH, AUG. '26.—The Russian 'feet
were spoken with in the Baltic, by an American,
as
late as the 12th inst.
,They were steering to the
North Ward, and had springs upon their' cables, for
the pprpose of anchoring among the rocks, to attack
the Swedes. , It is reported that both Sir J. SAomB-
- and Sir S. HOOD are gone after them, and as
they had early notice of their 'being at sea, it to
be hoped a good account will be giver, of them :
they consist of nine Sail_ of the Line,-ITO of which
are Ships of 110 and 11'4 guns, anct eight,Frigates,
besides smaller Vessels, .

A Foreigner of distinaion has very lately'arrived
at 'StoCkholm, from. St*. Petersburgh, and it is said
brought the important intelligence that a marked:
dislike to the French Army has lately manifested
self in Russian Poland, and that an insurreCtiOn hal
taken place; but we have no, particulars. I suppose
you have long before this heard of the death of
Marshal BRUN, who., it is said, has either. been
poisoned or shot by his Master's arders, for permit-
ting smuggling with the English ; but BUONiPARTE
has long disliked him. An Austrian Minister, Ba-
ran has found his way to Stockholm within
the last week, and immediately set off for the King,
in Finland. Upon his retnrn from thence, we are
told, be will go to London.

- Three English Mails are now due, and we are all
panting for Spanish and Portuguese news.
AUG. 27.-W' have just received by some Ame-
rican Captains, arrived here to-day from Copen-
hagen, the
.unpleasant intelligence that 2500 Spa-
niards, who revolted in 7,:.‘aland, have been over-
come by the French and Danes, and put in priSon,
though not before they had killed several French
Officers.

Admiral KEATS isjt}st.entQring here, with a
large Fleet, having on boai.d the Spanish troops from
Langeland.

Dispatches were received at the Admiralty this,
morning from Sir JAMES SAUMAIik:Z, Commander in
Chief in the Baltic.
A new house is intended to be•built at Plymouth,
for the residence of the Pert Admiral.
Thursday being the anniversary of their MAJES-
TlES'•wedding-day, the e!'; Joe was observed and kept
bv them. The Dukes of E,P.NT, CAMBRIDGE, and
th/MB.ERLAND, visited their MAJESTIES, and dined
with -them, to congratulate them on the return of
the day. Lord and Lady WALSINGHAM, the Hon.
General and Lady HARQOURT, paid a visit on the
occasion.

His MAJESTY did not ride yesterday r.norning,
owing to-its being very rainy. -

Some letters from Cadiz were yesterday receivecl;
which, though not of a more recent date than those
which had previously come to hand, contain sonic
interesting particulars
CADIZ, AUG. to.—The original force. of Du-
PONT'S army was upwards of 2Q.,o,oo,'whereof 17,510
laid down their arms, and,or the about 2000 Swiss
soldiers immediately joined thCir brethren in the
Spanish service, and now from being enemies coin:
pose part of our. own army.
,
"c The prisoners are-now on their march toward's'
San Lucar Rota, and Port St. Mary's, and during
their journey they always encalop in the open fields,
and 'make no stay whateVer ibany of the ebrintry-
towns through which they pass, fearing to be at....
tacl,,ed by the people, who are .most furious against
them, in consequence of their scandalous,conduct
in Cordova and Anduxar, which towns they plun-
dered, and committed every other possible degree of
excess.

" These fellows, according to capitulation, ought
to be embarked for France ;. but how this is to be
carried into eifea I know not, for
,besides our being
absolutely without ,one single vessel tit for such 'ser-
vice, it' is not quite certain whether the English Ad-
miral would acquiesce in such a measure, so thot iu
all. probability we shall be molested with these trou-.
bleorne guests fot a long time, and they amount,
including those troni. the fleet, to more than 21,000
wen, which we have to maintain and take care of 7

‘,‘ DUPONT was to have been Governor of ,Cadl-z;
and the number of rapacious fellows by whom he';
was accompanied; to lake upon themselves all the
lucrative employments, both civil and military, is al-
most incredible ; for the revenue department there
were 205, and for the military departMent 19 Su-:
pernuruerary Generals, of various ranks, to Cplo=
ue:s, Lieutenant-Colonels, 8 Majors,- and 440
Ottic.ers. Hence, it is clear that they
would have sent away every person in employment
in tins province. It is certainly a pizce of goodifor7
Wile, that in our army all theChiefS- are intimate
friends, and with scarcely any ek.ception, have al-
ways .maintained the principles they now profess.",
