The ,Princess of WALES and Duchess of Balms-
*tax attended Divine Service on Sunday.last; at
Lewisham Church. An excellent Sermon was
preached by the Reetor, the Hon. and Rev. Doctor
Lino t, bother of the Earl of DARTMOUTH,--
the affectionate attention of the Royal Relations
to each other excited the admiration and love of the
whole congregation, among whom were most of the
Nobility and Gentry of that splendidly inhabited
neighbourhood. The 'Duchess of BRUNSWICK hay- •
ing been so long accustomed to the Lutheran service
in Germany, seemed sometimes at a loss in follow-
ing the ceremonial of our worship. Her Royal
Daughter assisted her on those occasions with a filial
reverence and solicitude, which aff4ed the fond
sensibility of the amiable and illustrious Parent even
to tears. In retiring atter the service, the Prin.
ceAs received the salutations of the principal persons,
which she 'returned in the most gracious manner.
The Duchess curtsied to the people on both sides as
she passed. Every one shewed the most earliest
and affeCtionate interest about her. It seemed as if
a venel'ated parent, returned after a long absence
from a distant land, was enjoying in the tender and
ntTe&ionate cares of a numerous kindred, the greatest 1
balm which an affiiCted mind can possess. in the Ale- 1
dine Of a well-spent life.
Her Serene Highness was so much affeaed, that
she was obliged to support herself on the arm of one
of the Gentlemen in attendance as she withdrew,
bathed in tears of affeetion and grateful acknowledge
merit. May Britain always afford so honourable an
asylum to fallen Sovereigns ; but particularly to those
who, like the illustrious subject of these observations,
are. of kindred in virtue as well as` in blood to our
gracious SovaxEIGN, and who tney fill victims in the
common cause of Nations. to the vindiaive rage of
the general Enemy of mankind, but most of Britain-,
and the Friends and Allies of Britain.
His Highness the Duke of Gt.OUCESTRR was.; the
first of the Royal Family who visited- the Duchess of
BRUNSWICK. His Highness waited upon her the
very day of her arrival, accompanied by his amiable
sister and mother. The Duke of CUMBERLAND Was
the next to pay his respects. Our good KING was
not long behind. The other branches of the Royal
Family have not yet made their visits.

COPY OF A DISPATCH FROM CIia:DE:iNICStN TO

THE EMPEROR ALEXANDER.

Head. quarters at Wehlau, funs I.ls.
" The Enemy having :immediately diretc.ted the
whole of his force from Heilsburgh towards Fried.;
land and Weblau, with an intention to cut off my
army from the Preget, I humbly beg leave to inning
your Royal Majesty, that I could not form any posi-
tion at Schippenbeil,:but made a forced.march to
Friedland on the 1713th:inst.
,The advanced detachment, which I sent for-
ward to occupy that town, toned the place, at three
p. rn, in the posSession of four squadrons of the ene-
my, win& were, however, driven out immediately.
In order to keep possession of the towe,
,that
.my
troops might rest from their fatigue, I sent some in-.
fantry to the left bank of the detiug the night.
But in the morning at break of doe, the enemy titr
tacked my. advanced posts, an:l at it lit ..,tter five the
cannonade commenced. I therefore sent another,
division of my army aereSS the river, to support the
other troops, as I had reason to suppose that the
enemy's van only had conic up. Thu enemy was
-repulsed at every point, and the troops fought' for
fourteen hours together with the 'greatest hr:iv ery,
and preyed always viaorious. General Oulu N
whose division fortn'od the right wing of the enoniy,
attempted to make an attack with the bayonet; but
my left wing eagerly advanced upon hip,' and de-
strayed an entire column. AnAier column was.
routed. The cavalry of my right wing also ne`tde art
impctuons and successful attack upon the Enemy's
cuirassiers, Pursuing them as faC as Heinrichsdortf,.'
which village supported the left wing of the Enemy.
At three in the ,afternoon BONAPARTE arrived in
person, with the rest of his army, and sheltered by
a wood, he reinforced his right wing in such a de-
gree, that at six, when he con.menced a fresh at tack,'
and opened upon my, Jeft wing a masked battery of •
forty pieces of 'cannon, I was noder • the necessity of
resolving to commence my retreat, which was ef-
fetited in the best order, and my rear stopped the
whole force of, the enenly, until, all my treopS kid
crossed the Alle. Although nij loss, during a- ba t t
which lasted sixteen hours, and from my army's being
obliged tc:)`file off over a bridge, which was exposed
to the enemy's artillery, cannot be inconsiderable;'
the enemy must have lost an equal number at least,"
since the attack with the bayonet, and that of the
.cavalry, has caused him a great toss, and as in the '
former we took. from him the Eagle of the 15th regi-
ment of the line.' Nor has the enemy taken any
other prisoners bet such as were wounded dan- •
gerously, and which could not be removed from the
town, and only some dismounted pieces of cannon
belonging to the regiments (with a few which could
not be removed, because the horses attached to theth
had been shot) fell into his hands. On the other
hand, all our piecei of camp artillery were got off
safe. I am now taking with my army a pOsition
behind the Pregel, near Wehlau, causing all the
passes of that river, as far as Konigsburgh, and fn-
sterburgh, to be occupied by my troops, in conse-
quence whereof I have re-:opened'a communication
with General L'EsTocia. If the enemy should ven-
ture to cross the Pregel, ' shall attack him imme-
diately, and the reinforcements which already are
on their march,. will soon supply my loss, and ena-
ble me once more to cope with the enemy.

TiE THEATRH.,---The Comedy of The Poor Gen-
tleman drew a numerous audience last night to the
Haymarket Theatre. The novelty of Mr. You N t;'S
appearance in Frederick' doubtless increased the at..
traction, particularly es it is a character so different
trout the parts which be has hitherto assumed. EC
was much more light, easy, and playful than we ex-
pected, and supported the character throughout in a
very animated PerformerManner.his haS now
taken a
solid bold of the Public, and as he shews
such variety as well as bterlingmerit in his exertions,
there can be no doubt that he will assume his pro
per station on the Winter Stage. The Comedy
was in general well Supported, and went otil-wittt
great applause.
