A Paper of this morning, which his laboured
with unremitting perseverance to discredit the re-
ports of any Battles having taken place in. Illoravia
subsequent to the f2d inst. because probably they
:Were said to have terminated in the defeat of the
French, accuses Ministers of having published a
gross falsehood, in stating that, Baron JACK,' had
received a Letter from the IcING of PauSsi.i upon
this interesting subjeka. The following% the. Para-
graph to which we allude :
They (the Government) afterwards, though not in thbir
own name, published another gross falsehood, viz, that M,
11, cost hPd a'Letter from the KIN* of rieus.; A. • Of this
there is not one word of truth, though published in a sort of
denti.olficial manner."

WE ARE AUTHORIZED to state, that the. Prussian
Ambassador did receive such, a Letter, and conse-
quently that the assertion in the Paper to which we
allude is wholly destitute ,of Truth.

Sir J. B. WARRLN is, wind-bound at St. Helen's,
with ten Sail or the Line.

Fr is proper to correct the error which appeared
in, the several accounts,of the Sentence pronounced
an Viee«Adtniral Sir R. CA LDER . The words were
not "fear or cowardice," which nre synolUm9as
terms, but " cowardice or distffeaion."

We this day give some Extraas from the Dutch
Papers to the t Bth, the arrival of which we an-
nounced on Thursday. It will be seen that the
whole of the details relate to the Battle of the 2d
only. The story of the Armistice remains just where
it was, and, in our opinion, unentitled to the-least
credit. The French appear to be determined that
we shall ndt learn, either from France or Hol-
land, the reverse of fortune which, we have no
doubt, they have sustained. We must therefore
wait patiently for the,arrivatof the Hambyrrgh
till which we have no hope of obtaining any accu-
rate intelligence from the seat of War. The Letter
from Berlin, of the I tth, which we laid before our.
Readers yesterday, is decisive as to the result of the
bat& of the 4th, and the defeat of the French on;
that day.
The details which we have extraCted from the
Dutch Papers bear all the n*irks of that excessive
exaggeration, or rather. falsehood, winch have, SO
long ehargterised the French statements of the ex.;
ploits of their Armies. The story of 20,000 Rus-
sians being drowned on the icy surface of a lake,
will, of course, readily he te/ieved

Yesterday morning Han' MAJESTY, PRINCESSES
ELIZABETH and AMELIA, took an airing in a coach
and four, .and honouted Mr. DE IRBY with a visit,
at his seat at Bidwell. rile PRINCESSES AUGUSTA,
MARY, and SorniA, took an airing on lior,t:bick in
Windsor Park. His .MAJESTY did not lea..e the
Castle.
