atrempfs to Capture, near the Villages of Henekeo.
hagen and Booenhagen, fifteen PrUssian boati laden
'with salt ; but the coast guards' under the command
oftie‘otenant Boeltzig, repulsed the enemy, although
•the frigate kept a heavy-fiie of cannon, and the
'boat of carronades and musketry. The man at the
helm in the baat and several men were killed,• and
a number of wounded we're 'conveyed on-Lboard -the

PARIS,,SkrT. 20.—A person of, the name of Pa-,
gow-,ki, who assumed the titles of .a Polish Connt and
a Knight of Malta, was condernned to death_ on the
ttlto .by a Military Commission. It appeared;
in
.The course of his trial, that he had been expelled-
. from France.. in, 1802 ; farm Russia in
.September,
.1805 ;,.that Ile then went to England, from whence
he was again cast upon the con!inent towards: the
end of 'May,
,1807.... He returned to Paris, where he.
wds:foinid guilty of forgery and swindling, and after
two .years imprisonment in the Bicetie, he 'vas
conctuaed . by the gens
,d'armes to thefrontiers of
France last May. At the same time the 'French
p apers,. 'upon the most authentic' information, put
the pnbliVan their guard against the artifices of this
• per Son; who was then considered only as a vile cheat.
But soon changing. his- disguise and his !tames,. he
attempted impositions of,a more serious kind,Whik:h
even touched upon high treason. In pursuance of
these designs" he wrote from Frankfort and Hamm to
various SOvereigns, under different names, on the
Bth and'nth Of May, and the sth and 24th of June.
On ttie'Ll4.tb of June he wrote to Admiral Sanmarez
in the. Baltic, under the name of, a person who was
supposed to have escaped from the prisons of France
with Bai:on de Kolli. • It was mictiubt on this autho-
rity that the last English papers stated the arrival of
in England. •
The offended GOvernments caused this Pagowski

to be arrested; and having, obtained full informa-
tion- with *resped' to his former atrocities, through
his new, plots, they officially transmitted proofs,
which leaving not the-least possibility of • a defence
to the accused or his counsel, carried the horror and
conviction of his Judges to the highest pitch.
It appeared from the proofs transmitted, as well
as the confession of the culprit, that in his travels, and
in hisletters to different. Sovereigns and 'Princes of
Germany',' he had successively assumed the following
names and titles :. Ist, Colonel Beaumont, Aide-ale-camp to his. Majesty the King of Westphalia; and a
Knight of several Orders ; 2d, Chevalier de POboti;
3d, Sir William Cooper, an F.nglisirrnatr ; h,

the Order the an English Peer; 'and Colonei
of the Northumberland Militia; • 8;b; Catint
.meny, an Elungarian ; and lastly, Schrarn'tn, an in=
habitant of Mayence. •

In answer to the questions respecting his name,
;surname, age, place,•of nativity, and residence, he
answered :—"My name is really Jerome' Count de

SMYRNA, AUG. 2.—The resolution which 'the..
Grand Seignior has taken to put himself at the head
of the army, and march against the enemies of tl _
Prophet', has roused in Mussulman Asia all the ar-.
dour of the early times of Islamism ; ;enthusiasm is
at its; highest pitch. The Paella's have forgotten
their rivalships, have renounced their pretensions,
and abjured their individual 'animosities,J to meet
only the.comtuonfdangers and to combat under-WE—
standards of. their menaced Faith,. All-the-land-

Tthe Council of Administration in.et, for the first

itches were received from Lord WELLING-
: lastnight, and were forwarded this tnorta-
iis Majesty at Windsor. They were dated
L ult. from Gouvea, where, his Lordship has
ip a strong position. We do not understand
se dispatches contain any thing important.

lave received some Spanish and Portuguese
but they contain very little news. We are
find that in consequence of the diScovery
ispiracy in Lisbon, it has been necessary to
number of :persons. The Spanith Papers
an address from the inhabitants of Monte
expressive of their loyalty, and their deter-
n to support the present Government.

'We are sorry to learn that a diturbarree, rather
of a serious nature, took. place, at Parkhurst Bar-
racks, irr the Isle of Wight, between a party of the
Dt,ke of .BRUNSWICK'S Corps, and some men
longing to another regiment. g.rme lives, we un-
derstand, were lost, and Several were wounded.

An investigation has been made into the affairs of
the late Mr. GOLDSMID, by desire et Government,
.and we are happy to find that the result has been
of a' 4•.,5t satisfaaary nature. Mr. MoxoN, the
4,
partner the late Mr. G. delivered to. the Chan-
cellor of the 4xchequer an .account of "the concerns
of the House, and that account was submitted to
the examination of , the Governor .of the Bank, and
Messrs. BAINBRIDGE', BARNET, and KENSINGTON,
and the result waioes we' have alreadystated. The
House of GOLDSMID and Co. took upon themselves
800,0001. of ,the -loan, of which 20,0001. Was on
account of the Irish Loan; but the temporary em-
barrassment which led W the rash -aot sv &h.:rally
deplored, arose from purchases of omuium to co..n-
terad the depression of the Funds Some 'very err o--
neousreports have been in circulation respeding the
transa&ions between Mr. GOLDSMID and the East
India Company; the ilia, we understand, is: that
the aid which the East India Company were to re-
ceive from the Public was 4dvaticed in Exchequer
Bills, which were, as , usual, put. into the hands of
Mr. GOLDSMID to negotiate. Of the 500,0001. ad-
vanced by Government, the East. India Coinpany 130
received' 150,0001. and the Three-tors .had, we are
informed, announced to . Mr. G.lthat they should
want-the remainder on the Ist inst. The Company
hold omnium as a security for that sum. The ac-
count between the Treasury and Mr. GOLDSMID was
completely balanced, but it is stated that Mr.G.).t.r;-
SMID held
,Exchequer Bills for some of the other
Governmnt Offices, to dispose of for them.

'A Gentleinan-who quitted Konigsburg as late as
the 14th ult. gives the following information :—At
that city a war between France. and Russia, was
deemed to be certain within a, very short period, and
it was supposed that the first act of aggression would
be committed by the impatience of BUONAiARTEi
who had announced his resolution to take possession
of ;all the ports of -the Baltic.
It was said that the grand-daughter of the Duchess
of COUALAND was to be married 'to the son of the
Prince of BENEVIINTO, and that this province was
not only to.be separated from Russia; and to form a
distinct Government, but to turn iis arms against its
present proprietor. The King of PRUSSIA, we are
told, was in expectation of receivi.ig orders fi-orn
Paris to assemble his troops to march ag,sinst ALEX-
ANDER, and the Poles were arming to support the
same interest. The Swedes also were organising a
force fur the purpose of re-taking Finland, and
adopting measures of ample vengeance against
ALEXANDER, for depriving them ut this valuable
pcirtion of their territories.
To the date of the 14th no French army bad ar-
rived at Konigsburg, or had approaChed the neigh-
bourhood. At Dantzic there were only 200 Dou-
aniers, and not any regular troops. In the harbour
of the former no flag was treated with greater re-
sped than the British; and Captain RosiissoN, of
the Prometheus, having captured and but nt a French
privateer cruising in the vicinity, the inhabitants
presented him %ith a quantity of wine and brandy,
as a token of their approbation. _ _

, At Lubec, Colbsrg,' DellitZie, Rostock, Stettin,
and some other ports, \ a very, (tiff:rem scene had
been exhibited. In these "place4i all colonial pro-
duce had not only been Seized, but condcmrieli and
sold ; and the books of the merchants had been exa-
mined; to dete6 and expose every circumstance con-
nected with British property.

Sir JAMES SAIJMAREZ, with the riaory, and
some other ships ct the line, was direCting his ut-
most exertions to assist the commerce of the Baltic.
A convoy of 200 sail, under the protection of the
Standard, of ti 4. guns, on the i sth ult. had sailed
from Carlshatrins. for England. Intelligence from
Petersburgh had been obtained to the 4th of last
month, when no alteration had beeu made in the
Government of that Court.

A Gentleman who left Denmark -on the 14th, and
the Coast of Sweden on the 23d of last month, says,
much indignation had been excited against France
at Copenhagen, on atcount of the intrigues by which
BERNADOTTE had been appointed Crown Prince of
the neighbouring State ; and it seems, that at the
moment of this irritation,
.BUONAPARTE had impru-
dently proposed landing a force in Zealand, ostensi-
bly to assist in. the defence of the Island, but secretly
to accomplish its subjugation. The consequence of
this state of things had been to dispose the Danes to
an immediate rupture with France and Sweden,
they not being less disgusted with the latter for ac-
cepting Ponte Corvo, as successor to the Throne,
than with the former fur supporting his nomi-
nation.

The force of Denmark to maintain her present de-
signs, consisted of 40,000 men in the Dtichies, and
an equal number of uncommonly fine troops, in an
improved state of discipline, in the Islands of -Fukien
and Zealand. It was confidently expected, that in
the event of a war with France, Russia would co-
operate, and favourable hopes were indulged, with
the assistance of, the maritime strength of Great Bri-
tain, to liberate the Baltic from the tyranny under
which it has been so long oppressed by French
usurpation.
By the same vessel, in which the Gentleman was
passenger, from whom we obtained the preceding
intelligence, two T) rolese Deputie3, supposed to be
Officers of rank, have arrived ;, and it is presumed
they were expeled by this Government, as, con-
trary to the usual custom, they did not wait for their
passports at Harwich, out were permitted to land,
and proceed %immediately for London.
