" War Department, March 4.
The Trialsingham packet, Capt. BULLOCK, is

of his army, and it is supposed that operations

By the last Report, the French were thus dis-
tributed : BUONAPARTE at Troyes; OuniNot at
Bar-sur-aube, with OIRARI) and VALMY ; :MAC-
DONALD marching upon the Aube ; and 'CLAIR-
VAUX with his right towards Chatillon, the scat of
Congress ; Nay at Ards-stir-Aube.; VicToa at
Plancy; and ARRHIGI at Nogeut.
'There are also accounts from Au GEREAU, Claim-
ing a victorious advance, with 40,000 men, against
Buarra, the oceppation of Chamberry, Bourg,
Nantua, and Macon ; and even a position under
the walls of Geneva. '1";-:s part of the story is
probably very grossly exaggerated, in order to
alarm SCHWARTZENBERG for his rear.

Some standards recently taken have been pom-
pously paraded about PaOs.

The execution of a Royalist, and a Decree
against all the friends of the BOURBONS, furnish
matter for serious reflection, but we have no
room to indulge in them at presefit.

Important Dutch and German Papers occupy
our pages so fully, that we dannot even index
their chief contents. The accounts from Italy are
most satisfactory and cheering. The Fifteenth
Report of the Silesian Army gives a plain and
gratifying narrative of the battles of Brierine and
La Rothiere. A Declaration by Denmark will
be perused with interest, and there is a Proclama-
tion ascribed to the CROWN PRINCE which, whe-
ther authentic or fabricated, cannot be too highly
prized

The following interesting intelligence has just
reached us from Spain. It is a good proof of the
spirit of the people of that Country.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM VITTORIA, FEB. 13.

" This town is at present in a state -of the
greatest commotion ; some lives have been ,al-
- lost, and there is no knowing where this
sanguinary tumult may end. The cause is as
follows :
" The Vittoria Gazette of yesterday, which I
enclose, contained the Treaty of Peace, signed by
the Duke de S. CARLOS on the part of FERDI-
NAND, and the Count de LAFOREST on the part
,of
BUONAPARTE. Towards the middle of the day
some waggons were observed entering the town,
containing furniture and other property, and it
was found to belong to some of the Nobility, who
had followed the fortunes of the French, and had
fled with them to France, but who, having re-
ceived a. passport, Signed by FERDINAND, had
thought fit to return to their houses in this town.
• The inhabitants, however, who had suffered much
• from the contributions levied on them by the
French, and being exasperated to see these agents
of BuoNAPARTE returning to enjoy the fruits of
the efforts made by the Patriots, and recollecting,
that whilst they were suffering under French
tyranny and oppression, these Nobles were
exempted from taxes, &c. rose in several pans of
the town, broke into the different houses inha-
bited by families who were thought to favour the
French, plundered them of all the property they
contained, and but for the interference of the
military force, would have massacred the inha••
• bitants.

I shall not fail to communicate it."

PORTSMOUTH, MA RC u 4.—Arrived his Majesty's

by the Eurotas frigate..

Though the following notice has by no means
implicated any of the parties in the nefarious
hoax 'practised on the •2lst ult. yet it certainly
must impress the Public ‘vith• an idea that they
arc not entirely free from suspicion. We trust,
therefore, that some of them at least will seize
the earliest opportunity of clearing themselves of
the most remote idea of a participation in such
an infamous transaction.

The following notice was yesterday posted up
at the Stock Exchange :

btlTcll AND ntIIMAN PArgitS,

DANISH DaIAILATION.
.The followihg 'Declaration appeared, on the
litb, at Middleton, on the Island of Futien !--ss
". By the care of the Danish Governthent, the
war which already, for fifteen years, had devas••
kited. Europe,.had not disturbed the repose of the
Danish:nation ; when the king., for a moment,
s-aw himself under the necessity of using.delen-
sive means, partly for the protection of his sub-
jects' commerce, and partly for the security of
his provinces bordering on Germany.
" The attack made by the' English on his -Mat=
jesty's capital, and carrying off the• Danish fleet
in the year 1807, put an end to the happy tran-
quillity which kis Majesty had, until then, been
enabled to preserve for his subjects. The Danish
States, at that time,-had the-same common enemy
with France, and the consequence was, that' an
alliance was sought and concluded with that power.•
The Emperor, openly and directly, promised
men and money ; 'and a numerous army irunie-
diately moved into the provinces belonging to his
Majesty the King. It was agreed that the ex-
pence of its support should be defrayed by the
French Government, and this amounted, to a sum
of several -millions of rix-dollars. Without un-
dertaking any thing, however, this many remain-
ed a burthen longer than 'the Danish Govern-
merit thought requisite. The expellee of its support
remained unpaid, and the request of Denmark on
this, point were equally faithless as those con-
cerning the announced requisitions in
.money.—
The situation of a state whose resources were al,
ready diminished by the naval war, and by these
naval disbursenicnts, became totally exhausted,
again suffered a most prejudicial influence from the
shutting of, the Continental ports, which was re-
presented as one of the means for obtaining a ge-
neral peace. The annexation of the Hanse'l'owns
and contiguous provinces to the French Empire,
became afterwards a most heavy burthen, with
regard to the commercial intercourse with Ger-
many. Its effects extended even to literary con-
nections. Earnest professions whiCh svere Ire-
quentlyrenatved,hadgiven hopes, that tbeseobsta-
cles which were so directly contrary to the good
understanding ira which his Majesty contributed all
in his power, to remain with the French Govern-
ment, would have been removed, .but these hopes
always remained unfulfilled. Whilst the. French
army was retreating in the winter between 1812
and 13, the Imperial troops, which, according to
a particular agreement, were to have remained.
for the protection of the frontiers of Holstein,
were drawn away. As the French Government
had at the same time declared its intention of en-
tering into megociations for peace with all her ene-
mies,the King deemed it important for him to make
overtures ofpeace to Great Britain. The alliance with
France was• now become of no utility. The
King would willingly have prevented the cities
Of Hamburgh and Lubeck from again falling into
the hands of the French, in order to keep the
war front his own frontiers, and save from de-
struction those cities, whose interests were in
such direct connection with those of his subjects;
but his Majesty was obliged to desist froth the
prosecution of -this plan ; llis•inwrests therefOire
required that he should accept the offer made him
of renewing the alliance with France,- and to give
it a larger extension, in order to assure him of a
powerful assistance against those Sovereigns, who
•
had not hesitatedto declare that they would sup-
port the demands of SWeden, which -were so ini-
mical to the integrity of his States.
" The Icing on his part has- conscientiously
performed the stipulations of the treaty. Whilst
his auxiliary troops were fighting by, the side of
the French troops, they received only a part of
the pay, which according to the agreement was
their due, and his Majesty's Subjects suffered a
considerable loss, as well by the embargo laid
on their property which was deposited in the ci,
ties of Lubeck and Hamburgh, of which the
French Government took to itself the privilege of
disposal, as-by taking away the funds of the bank
in the last mentioned city. The promises of
.re-
storation given in consequence of the complaints
thereon made, remained equally with the recla-
mation made on the subject without effect.
" It was assured by the Treaty, that 20,000
'men should be in readiness to protect the Duchies
and Jutland, but Marshal d'Eckmuld quitted the
position which covered those provinces, and re-
treated with all the troops under his command to
Hanaburgh, leaving the King's troops to their
own fate; and who were not able to withsttind
the superior force which was moving forward, to
force, by their overmatch in strength, •an entrance
into the country. The enemy's irruption into the
Duchies, together with the loss of the fortresses,
was followed by the King's being forsaken by an
Ally, on whose assistance he had reasonable
grounds for placing a reliance.
" His Majesty has been under the necessity of
consenting to the greatest sacrifices to protect the
remaining part of his states from invasion, with
which they
.were threatened by land by the com-
bined troops of several powers, and for the pur-
pose of again getting possession of those pro-
vinces which had fallen into the enemy's hands.
'' He recalled his Minister at the Court of the
French •Emperor, and declared to the Alinister
of his Imperi'al.Majesty residing at his Court, that
he could no longer consider him as •being.in.that
capacity, and that opportunity should be given
him for to return to France.
" His Majesty likewise declares, that he will
join the Sovereigns united against France, in Or-
der to assist in bringing about a general peace,
for which.all the nations of Europe are languish-
ing, and 'which is so necessary for the Danish
States.

HANOVER, FEB. 6.—His Royal Highness , the
Crown Plince of Sweden has addressed the follow-
ing Proclamation to the French Nation :
" FRENCHMEN !—lt is not a strange• who ad-
dresses you, but a man who is bound by the
dearest feelings to your happy country. To you

when you fought for it ; you have seen him make

exert himself to make the French name beloved
