By Papers received from Holland to the 25th,
all doubt is removed-with regard to the import-
ant fact of the surrender of Dantzie. It was de-
livered up to the Duke of WIRTEMBURG, com-
manding the besieging army, not'on the first of
January, according to the capitulation, but on
the following day, and the surrender is Uncondi-
tional. The whole of the garrison became pri-
soners of war, and.the French part of it ‘vas im-
mediately put on march for. Russis. A-portion
was Dutch, and those were set at liberty, and .are
provided with-- the means of returning to their
own country for the expulsion of that enemy
with whom they have been so long compelled to
serve.

• A report prevailed at the Hague, that insurrec-
tions had-broken out in Artois•and Picardy. •
We learn from a paragraph in the Bert iuda
paper of the 18th ult. that some further steps have
been. taken with regard to the blockade of the
American ports. This paper contains another
Proclamation of Sir J. B. WARREN, stating the
full particnlars of the characters and exteht of
Allis blockade of the American ports to the South
of Rhode Island, land to prevent the possibility of
mistake oi• evasion, every harbour is named, sub-
ject to this restriction.

BOLIVAR is particularly stated to have returnedjo
Caraccas, but whether his troops have. evacuated
Valencia, or stiltretaincd possession of that-place,
is not ascertained. The division tattier Colonel
CEVALLOS, which marched from Coro, was on the
18th October, within seven leagues of Valencia.
Genoa' MONTEVERDE, in consequence of a wound

LoMoN, and on this occa.Fion, the latter publish-
ed a spirited. Address to the inhabitants of that

vantages of the Government of the varent State,.
the increasing-streegth of the adherents of the

Private accounts front Paris heighten the gloom
of the public confessions of disaster. Commercial

English Oinnium is at 21 per cent. premium ;

From the papers by the Jamaica Mail on Wed-
nesday-, we learn, that three laws have passed the
Legislature in favour of free people of colour—
to make their evidence good in all cases against
-whites—allowing them to possess property to any
'extent—and'obliging all persons possessing slaves
•to have a' white person serving in the militia for
every hundred negroes in their possession. These
laws passed the Assembly with only two dissen-
tient voices, amidst a great deal of popular cla-
mour and in opposition to two petitions against
the measure from the town of Kingston.
