St is stated that the King of Swerve has Made
proposils for peace to Marshal BRUN E. .
General Me H sense has declared Ragusa to belong
to France, and notified that it and Dalmatia shall
form a part of the Kingdorti of Italy.
The Dutch and French Paper's have 'et last taken
notice of the surrender of Copenhagen, and the fol-
lowing article on that subject appeared id the Mani.-
toff of the 20th ult.
" Copenhagen is in the hands of the English:
It has capitulated et days after the landing in Zee.-
land. Europe will learn with surprise that the city
has fallen into their hands without the opening of
the trenches, and solely through the terror of a
bombardment. It is true that the first effeCts were
horrible ; a part of the city is in ashes, a number of
women and children killed, and the Danish General
has judged that he was under a necessity to sign the
annexed Capitulation.
" Every thing induces a belief that the Capitula-
tion will not be ratified by the King of DittotitaK.
The CROWN Patrice has expressed the. highest in-
dignation that a General should enter into conditions
which rise tar above the military authority. Al-
ready has he refused to see the English Agent, JACK-
'sow, who presented himself before Kiel; be has
declared that be will continue at war with England,
and that he will recover, by force of arms alone,
whatever has been wrested from him by surprise and
treachery. •
" It is observable, that in the 7th article the En-
glish speak of union and harmony between the two
States. It becomes them, lore:edit, to propose that
the Danes siould love them ! to fad, without a
word said, without a pretence, without a declaration
of was, even while at London all the forms of a
teneine friendship were maintained with the Danish
Ambassador, have they done no smaller mischief
than to set fire to their ships and houses, and to
any iereor and death into the bosoms 01 their peace-
ful, tamilies
If such prowations do not excite an implacable
war with Eeelenu—it a sentineee el hate and yen-
reltice do not inflame all, Innn the old man to the
boy; slant the Admiral to the cabin-bee, it is all over
with the Danish nation. They have resotved to
make a Ligrcruus stated, for the iieeiy which their
independeiiee has
world:
is without example in
the history
the Human langeage has no
expreision eedliijOdeecribe such an enterprise.
" Denmark habi arl'ed a Whets part, and has had
this in common with the Continent, that she has el-
ways been distrustful towards Prance, and given all
credit to the boasting and Prfansions of the up-
right Cabinet of London. Surely, if the Danish
army had been in Zealand, instead of being on the
Continent, at the tuenierit when the English made
theleappearance, the: leiter never would have had
• success. ,Besides, the linglish Ministry have not so
much to boast of. What WS also resulted from this
Expedition is, that it has injured England ; and
what also-will be the effea of it, history will repre-
sent it as nothine less than a Wish cruelty. For
what was its object ? To prevent the French from
making themselves masters of the Danish Fleet : but
could they do this while that very fleet lay locked
up in the port of a distant island? And, if they had
obtained possession of it, was it in their power to
equip it, and condu& it to the., harbours of France ?
Will they augment the English fleet by the fifteen
or twenty block ships, which are found in the arse-
,nal of Copenhagen ? But it is not ships which the
English stand in need of. Do they hope to make
themselves masters of the Sound, and to continue in
•possession of it, as of Gibraltar But by the capi-
tulation,' the English General has bound himself to
evacuate Zealand, and to make no attack on Fuhnen.
Was it feared that France would increase her hostile
Means by all the power of Denmark ? The means
of preventing this were not difficult; either the
Danes submitted to the threats of England, and then
France took possession of three-fourths of Denmark ;
or they rejected with indignation the offensive de-
mand, and thereupon no one could any longer doubt,
from the noble character of the Crown Prince, and
the courage of the Danish Nation, when excited by
' desperation, that it became necessary to take up
arras, and to make a common cause with France..--
Besides, even in both alternatives, this attack gave
a new Enemy to England, and it could not have
been planned but by a foolish policy, or a secret
hostility to the power of Denmark ; a pleasing de-
monstration to mankind, that an unjust attack is ever
pernicious. .
" The English Cabinet could not have contrived any
thing more injurious to its interests, or more calcu-
lated to rouse the indignation of Europe, than this
base a& of treachery. Du they believe that they
have delivered themselves -from a disagreeable situa-
tion, by a capitulation extorted by force, from weak-
ness' from
pusillanimity ?---They have for ever lost
the friendship of Dentnark, and the respect of all
nations. They can make no use of the ships they
have taken, nor can they retain Zealand. The sea-
son approaches in which the East and West Indies,
Ireland, and England herself may be attacked, while
the greater part of her force will be in danger of
being inclosed in the ice of the Baltic. Either the
English will remain in Zealand, and be driven from
it in the winter, whatsoever force their army may be,
or they will evacuate it, according to the terms a'
the capitulation, and then the Sound is shut against
them forever.
' " Denmark has a land force capable of resisting
all the attacks of the English ; and, had it not been
for the false security with which. she was inspired,
while the views of France engaged her attention,
there would have beets 40,000 men at Copenhagen ;
and Lord CATHCART would have experienced, under
the walls of that city, a reception ectually =Mora-
We as that 'which fell to the lot of the Duke of
YORK at Dunkirk and in Holland, and which tke Eng-
lish are always sure to obtain whenever they venture
to set foot on the Continent.—ls it by taking the
Danish Fleet, by burning the Capital, by attacking
the independence and violating the neutrality of Den-
mark, that the English Ministers or their Generals
pretend to preserve the neutrality of that country ?
One is indeed compelled to farm as unfavourable an
opinion of their foresight as of their justice. If they
expect to maintain themselves in Zealand, they must
assemble there an army of at least 80,000 men, and
even that force would be insufficiest.
1 " But this attack rill appear still 'more absuid
and infatuated, if it be considered with respeet to the
o ing tvol, nIA if ime, mq, h..., /119.4 11#1/••••••••• ult. 11. A. _

the hatred which it will arouse, and the
vengeance which it will provoke.
"The Emperor ALEXANDER had offered his me,
diation to England. In return for thiS kt.idness, the
English surprise the entrance ti) that sea, the inde.
pendence of which he had guaranteed, taken by rob-
bery the Fleet and the Capital of a. Power with
whicli he was united in the btieds of political friend-
Ship and neighbourhood. Thus the English repay
the good offices which RUssia ,hasat all times dune
for them, the prefer(sace she has given ~ to their
twaimerce, and the immense sacrifices she has Made
to their policy ! While they still might have oh!
tained great advantages as the consequence of their
connexion, they insult Russia in her honour,, offend
her in her relations with. her Allies, and. attack her
in her dearest interests. And in the dispute which
they have treated, they have made .the respee table
House of lleninark, which is related to the sings
of England; the entire viCtim of their shameful at,
tack. In vain will they endeavour to avoid.indigna-
tion, by pretending that France bad views against
Denmark. It so, were they
_ignorant that they were
committing a much more shameful aggression.
But his interest; as well as his Own glory, and that
of his people, would have withheld the Emperor of
the French from such a
eiiplation of the rights of
mankind, and of the eternal Morality of nations, the
consequences of which would have been to re-,kin-
dle the flames of war; tO,offend Russia, and again
Spread, fire and blood over Ole. tontinent. In all
eventii, it would have beet f,rudent in England not
to have been the first to a& in this manner. She
had it alwiys. In her power to send her Fleet to the
Island of Zealand fedefeit'd it, and then she would
have on her side Russia, Sw'eden, Denmark; and the
justice of her cause.
" When this EXpedition is thus considered in its
objet, its execution, and its reions, we perceive in
it only the desperate but blind policy of fear, which
calculates nothing, heeds nothing, and respects no-
thing. How difficult will it be after all this to be-
lieve in the excellence of a Constitution which au-
thorizes such transatlioos, or to admire the idle
words of a Parliament which Patiently bears with
such injustice, and, we may say, such crimes."

AtnisauGn, SEPT. 1 B.—Leiters from the North
Of Gothany of the beginning of this month say,
that the troops nuclei- the Prince of PoriTp. Como
have taken a fixed position, The right wing of his
corps is in and about Lubeck,,to the Eastward. The

burgh, and forms the centre. The left Wing, corn-
posed of Hollanders, is between the Elbe and the
Weser. The whole make a tdtal Of about 40,000
Men I. but when this army is to aLt, is uncertain.
