THE GQTTENBURGH MAIL.

ELSINEUR, APRIL 14.—Letters received yester-
day from Mernel,.state, that the Emperor of Russia
arrived there on the gd instant. Nothing new had
happened between the armies—the Garrison of
Dantzic had been reinforced with 4000 men.

GOTTENBURGII, APRIL t 6 .--Accountshaye reach-
ed us to-day (but not official ones) that the Swedish,
army, from Stralsund, has taken possession of Ros-
ock; in AlcciclnbUrgh, a ,d that in its parch thitlicc

1001 nTore prisoners have (since the affairs of the
3d and 4th inst.) fallen into its hands,. besides bag-
gage, ammunition, &c. and a considerable, sum of
money, equal to about 80,0001.,sterling. The pri•
soners remarked, it is said, that a general discontent*
prevails in the French army in Poland in consequence
of the hard services they had been exposed to. In-
deed, from all accounts, it would seem thatlf a safe-
rallying point could be offered them great desertions
would take place. •

Tlil"i,DAY, APRIL 23). 1807.

Tuts morning we received Jamaica Papers to the
14th ult:—they contain a report that a French Squa-
dron, supposed• to be, from Rochefort, had appeared
in those Seas, in consequence of • which Admiral
CocHrAKII sailed -with the whole of his force in. the
Dopes of falling in with them. Dispatches were re-
ceived-this morning, at the Admiralty from• Admiral
COCHRAtsTE previous to his sailing, which, we under-
stand, confirm the above account.
' These Papers state, that -accounts had been received,
of General CRAUFL'II9 haVing taken Cumana but
we do not think them entitled to any credit.

THES . morning a Mail from Husuni and one
from Gottenburgh arrived. The only article 9f im-
portance which they. contain, is .a report that alt
Armistice had, been agreed upon between the Rus-
sians and French. We are, however,happy td find that
'.the latest accounts from St.Petersburgh render this ac-
'count very improbable. It is stated that the KING of
PRUSSIA has' positively - refused to listen to any
Overtures in which his Great Britain and
Russia; are not iticluded. he EMPEROR of-Russm
arrived at Memel on the Lld inst.

• The Berlin Telegraph states that the British Fleet
fiad sailed for Malta to repair the damages it sustain
ed in repassing' the Dardanelles.

A Report was circulated last night, that intelli-
gence of an unfavourable nature had been received
from the East Indies by an over-land Dispatch.--
upon inquiry, however, we do- not find that there
was any foundation for the rumour. •

Yesterday; about 2 o'clock, 1-r is. MAJESTY ar-
rived at the QuEEN.S,i)iiince, from Windsor.
The. Corporation—of the City of London left
Guildhall at one o'clock, and proceeded on their

Guards and along the Park. The -LORD Nal:ou'g
state carriage, his servants in state liveries, on foot,

With. a warmth of public favonr worthy of her high

6plendid supper.
