SURRENDER OF THORN.

We have the satisfaction to state, that official
advices have been received from General SrzwAwr,
Mated Iletlin, the 231 nlt.tannouncing the, surren-
der of Thorn by capitulation.. The French part
of the garrisob were made prisoners of war ; the
.Davarian troops were allowed their parole. This
is another pr,...ctical and successful Commentary
upon BUONAPARTE'S boast of the holding nut Of
his garrisons. rihoro is a fortress cif considerable
imptniance.

The coy s of Generalsworm( anti" D'Ynaci:
marched against BEAunixxois ittd NEY, and
a general action rvas shortly expected..

Letters have been received from Carlscroni to
t!,e 2,lth, and froM Gottenburgh to the :28th ult.

at' which times nothing was known at either of

those places of the surrender of Dantzie ;' but ac-
counts had been received, that a dreadful sickness
prevailed in that place.
We have. only to add, that what we stated OR
,Friilay respecting the surrender of Pantzic was
the substance of letters actually received by Go-
vernment from Mr. COCKBVRN, the British Resi-
dent at natuburgh.
Stettin is expected immediately to fall.

their army across the Belt.

Paris Papers to the 30th ult. reached town last
night, containing a statement of We situation 'of
'the French armies in the North on the 20th,—
Dantzic, it is alleged, still held out ; but the same
statement is made respecting Thorn, whiCh we
po4itively knotii to halie stirrendt:red.

The state of the ttrtnies is boasted 'of in the
usual gasconitling style ; and we are told, that

would have us believe that it occupies the most
formidable and hest calculated positions. A
specimen, however, of Cie reliance to be placed
upon these assertions, is to he found in the article
front Bremen, in which it is stated, that the ad 7
vaiteetl posts of General VANnimmr:'s division
were at Offersburg, nit the mid from Bremen to
Thimhurgli, at which same place, we know that
these troops, commanded by St. Cyst, were utterly
defeated, and compelled to a precipitate flight :

It is curious to observe the lowered tone of The
.111orning Cltroniele on the, afhtirs of Denmark. A
few 'days ago it vehemently -attadted Minis-
ters, whom it charged with confederating, with
Sweden to deprive • Denmark of Norway.—
Uur 'Readers will find in the- Danish Mani-
festo, rvhich we this day present to them,
that the Court of Denmark, while it pro-
lesse% a determination not to part with Nor-
way, bringo no accusation on the Inbject

imsed succession ot places'antl latals that border

of the Danish Court towards Great Britain, it
would have been silent upon its concurrence with

such concurrence had taken place on dolma of our
Eiders ? Vet the Chronicle, after all its positive
