LEYDEN, JAN. 19,--From Breda we learn;that
cnr. the 17th lust. 'twenty pieces of artillery arrived
there ; and on the following day they were 'for-;.
warded,to Dordrecht, from .whence they- will be'
'sent to SleSwyk, to be mounted on the batteries
,against Gokcum.. They are accompanied by be-
tween 12 and 1300 Prussians, belonging to tilt
corps at General Billow, who arc no longer re.
quired to he engaged before Antwerp.
The number of pritimiers:.taken in the late affair
amounts to 3 or 600, including about -200 taken
by the British Army. In addition to .these pri—
soners,. 70 have arrivcd4iat Hoogstraaten, taken by
the Cossacks in the direction of Atondeucic. The
enemy had fled in that direction on being driVen
by General llorstel from Turnhout. The report
of the Cossacks is also that they have killed a
great number: ' •
_ .

By the last letters,;General Tuben remained with
5 or 6,000 men at Morxein.

General •BorStell' was at \Vest Mane and St.
Antonius, with several thousand Prussians and
English in• advance at-Capelle, on the great road
from Zunkurt to:Antwerp. The British troops are
to move to Heykam, to prevent the passage of the
French on the road to Hoogstraaten, which-is yet
free. There are likewise 5,000 Prussians at Bres-
caat and Eckeren.

There are a few allied troops posted in the Ber-
.genrout, only three-yuarters•of a, mile from the
walls of Antwerp. Thus it appear's that the Al-
lies are surrounding Antwerp and although the
communication- of the enemy with Flanders is
not yet cut off, he, cannot long possess this
cility.

The British head-luartcrl are still at Rosen-
dael, but they are to be mored more to the
southward, to West Wesel, or Putte. This last
place is 'between Bergen-op-Zoom and Ant-
werp.

[From the Nederlandsche Stoats Courant].
THE. uIiG,E; JAN. 24.---Peace having been con-
cluded with Denmark, we learn from undoubted
authority that the Crown Prince of Sweden is op'
his march towards Dusseldorf, at the head of
40,000' men. We have also received the iniport-
ant intelligence that the strong fortresS Of Dant-
zic, after having been besieged.a year all hut ten
days, at lust capitulated on the 2d instant. The
_garrison, which at first; was 30,000 strong,"but
was diminiSlied one-half by malignant revers,
the effects of the cold and miseries undured in the
flight from Russia, remain prisoners of :Ivar, and
twill he sent to Russia ; with the exception of the
Dutch, who are on their way to their own coati-
.try, and of whom two officers have already ar-.
rived here. The quantity of caution, muskets,
and all kinds of military stores, found in Dant-
zic, is astonishingly great. ,
In a former Courant, Under the head of "Paths,
JanAtte," we communicated the linpe'rial Decree,
by which the Legislative Body was dissolvzd, at
the same time Mentioning the prObable reasons,
of this dissolution. We have_ since received fur-
ther confirmations of thew, with this addition,
that the report of the Committee of the Legisla-
tive Body, with regard to the documents commu-
nicated to them on the subject of negociations,
---as-vf-surli-aLpzucific complexion, and so 'strongly
recommended the acaeptiince of the preliminaries
proposed by the Miles, that the Eiuperor, in a in-
lions rage, ordered the printed copies of the re-
port to be destroyed. This violent conduct bad
excited universal indignation; and the wish to be
at last delivered from the pinching yoke of slavery
-was become very general. - Insurrections had •11-
ready broken out in some of the northern parts of
Fiance, as welt as in Artois' and Picardy.
From Breda, we learn that a requisition had
been there made for 700 horses to draw the Eng-
lish artillery; whence it is 'concluded that the
besieging of the fortresses is..to be set about in
earnest.

DOSSELDORF,_ JAN. IS —Russian troops con-
tinue to cross the Rhine without ceasing. The
cossacks of the corps of CzernitcheiT, which cross-
ed the Rhine, have advanced to Gulik and Len-
nep. In Neuss there are a great number of Rus-
sian troops, and General Czernitcheff's head-,
,quarters are there.

Upon the entrance of the allied troops
,into Co-
.blentz,- where almost all the houses were illumi-
.nated, some hundr.eds of armed French., besides
thoe in the hospital, fell into their hands. The
Cossacks brought the Prefect of Coblentz, and
the French General Guerin into Simmeren, after
having aken from the General ,150,000 francs,
which he was carrying off to the former place.
In Andernach tile Cossacks seized the post
waggon and 80,000 francs, ',destined for the
French Imperial chest', but all the other property
they let pass.

ARNIIE IN, JAN. 19.—The passage of troops of
all arms, as well as cf artillery and ammunition,
still continues. Today.thecorps of the RussiAn
General Benkendorf crossed the Mine, while the
great force assembled at Dusseldorf crossed.the
same river between that town and Enuerik.

FittE.--This morning, between six and seven
o'clock, a fire broke out at the residence of
":11AitayAT, in Peckham ; it was occasioned- by the
- foulness of a chimney in the' coachman's -apart--
ments, which were situated over the stables and
coach-house, in the latter of,which were two ele-
gant carriages, and before the flames could be
impeded, they, with what property the coachman
,was possessed of; ,as,Well as a quantity of hay and
corn, were totally destroyed. The Wife of the
coachman, who had lain-in but a few days, most
miraculously escaped with her infant.
MIIIM"ULOUS ESCAPE.-Yesterday morning, be-
tween .two and three O'clock, the family. of Mr.
MAy-som, a Grocer, in Woolwich, were most se-
riously alarmed by the upper part of the 'house
-giving way, in consequence of e quantity of snow
supposed to have penetrated through the tiles upon
the cielin which, on dissolving, forced the ciel-
ing down, and falling, with great pres Sure into an
empty attic, roused the whole of the family; the
water still continuing to find its way further,
obliged them to leave the premises, which they had
scarcely done before the end wall gave way, when
the roof fell in with such force that the house
cattle tdraaost- level with the grctund.

Allies have had no reason to be convinced by tic
