FRIDAY, MARCH 27, 1807.

Two Gottenburgh Mails arrived this morning; the
following are the only articles of-importance which
they contain :
" By private letters from Gottenburgh, of the date
of the 14th of IVlarch, we are informed, that. the
Swedish Government has detained there a part of
the 500,0001. sent out by this country for RusSia,
which part is to pay subsidies due from the latter to
Sweden : these subsidies, it is 'said, amount' to
375,000 rix dollars.; and to answer this sum, 64
casks of Spanish dollars, containing .5.0,00. each,,have
been stopped and lodged in- the Government Hotise,-
Gottenburgh.
GUTTEt4BURGH, MARCH .16.—Letters received
by the post of to=day, state that another severe Battle
took place the end of .mbitth, bet Ween the
French and the Allies, , near. Braunsburgh, which_.
ended in favour 9f the latter.. Other letters say that
. . •
after the Battle of Preussisch fire French'llt-
giments came over to the Prnsiatis, to which they
were necessitated by hunger:.

" An Engliih MesSenger has arrived tiete't&day,
from St. Petersburgh, with Dispatches from thence,
and from Constantinpp!e : it is reported, that although
appearances are atpresent very warlike between ..the
Turks and Russians, yet that great hopes are enter-.
tamped of a speedy accommodation."
(Extract of a Private Letter.)

ALTONA, MARCH 20.—The 'Advices that have
been received here,
,since.,Tny last, from. the Cora-'
biped Russian.and Prussian Armies, are of the most
gratifying nature; the Fresich, ifthings go on as they
have begun, will have no faither occasion to- issue
their. Bulletins, to impose on the.credolous part of
the. Public, as they will be obliged to retreat much

quicker than they came.
On the Ist inst. Gen. BrNtriosnres. headquar-
ters were at Heilsperg, the chief town of Ermeland,
in East Prussia, situated on the river Alle, where he
had received The Insignia of the Order of St. An-
drew, as a token of the great satisfaction his Sove-
reign feels for his signal services, and this mark of
distinction was accompanied by an addition to his
salary of 12,000 roubles. lie-bad 'broken up from
Konigsburghalready, on the 2.4 th ult. ThePrns-
sians, under Gen. Lasroca, were on his right wing.
Gen. LEsTocces-head-quarrers were at Peterswald.

"9n-the 26th ult.. the French gained-an advan-.
tage over the Itusians, and occupied the town of
Braunsbuith, on the Baltic, from whence they dis-
lodged the AuSsians; but the latter returned to the
attack on the 27th ult. when both parties became
alternately masters of the place, and alternately lost;

it again.
". Those conflicts were. most bloody; and the
bravery -and lion-like courage, and perseverance of
theaUssians, after "daily .battles with the enemy,
from the 26th ult. till, the Bth instant, maintained
the field of Branusburgh,which was seen in flames on
the sth inst. In this place, and near Heilsperg,-We
French left Roar 15,000+ dead on :the field. , Near
the 'latter place," the French General LEIW3I/11E, is •
said to have been taken prisoner, with 6000 men. •
" I\l4,einnori's head-quarters were expected at
Thorn on the gtli inst.; and though the french had
a considerable force; consisting of their.own troops,
and the German and-Polish trool)s at I Ibingt yet, by
the latest accounts, they have been driven- back, and
Gen. BEt4I,II.GSE/4 kept Continually advancing.
" The Russians are -aboOt to receive two great re.:
intorcements each of 80,000 men, one of which will
he under the- command of the Grand Doke CON-
STAN TIPiE.* A private letter from Berlin, of the'
14th inst. says, that T4LLEYRAND, ‘,llsides g great,

number of the diplomatique Corps, returned thither
via Breslau, in Silesia, -thinking the other road no'

WE lament that we are prevented by want
room from.laying.before our Rea:lets the official ac-
count, given by General.BENmosEN, of the operas
tions of the Russian Army from the time of its arrival
in Old Prussia, up to the Battle of Mohringen. The
length of the Debate in bath Houses compel us to
defer it till to•morlow.

TEIE subjeet of the debate in both Houses of Par-
liament last night has produced such an unexpe6ted
event, and has excited such general anxiety, that
the details of that debate will doubtless attract the
partieular attention of our Readers. We have not
room to enter into such observations as occur to us ;
but, indeed, the subjed was so fully canvassed, as to
enable our Readers to form a clear decision them-
selves. Tw.o points, however, it becomes us to no*
tics, namely, the evident repugnance of His MA..
.tasTr,during the whole progress of the Bill re-
speeting the Irish-Catholics, and the misconception
under which he was induced to give it any counte
nance. It is evident that His MAJESTY could only
conceive that it was the intention of the late Mi-
nisters to extend the Ad of the Irish Parliament of
,1793, to this Country, and not to enlarge its provi-
sion's. It is surprising that any mistake should have
arisen upon this important topic, that His MA=
JESTY'S sentiments could possibly have been tills•
understood, and that Ministers should have proceed-
ed so far without having the fullest conviction of
HIS MAJESTY'S feelings and intentions upon a sub-:
jeCt that so strongly pressed upon his mind. That
the late Ministers had any view to deceive His MA..
JESTY, cannot be supposed by their bitterest enemies,

and the warmest of their friends must lament that
they took so decisive a step without
,sutficient in-

quiry and explanation in that quarter on which they
must have entirely depended for a full authority to

their measures.
