DeMy!. His Excellency, the Governor, went himself to Delfzyl,
to do every thing necessary. Meantime the frost, which has re-
turned with increased severity, is a great hindrance to the execu-
tion of the measures that have been ordered. Many well-disposed
commanders of vessels, are hindered from giving proofs of their
zeal : nevertheless seven s esselit succeeded, on the 22d in getting
out of Delfzyl, and proceeding to the Waterloo. It is a consola-
tion to learn from persons, whose judgment may be depended upon,
that the ship was not lying in a dangerous place. From Fries-
land also, all the fishermen and vessels, both from the coasts and
the islands, are sent to give assistance to the Waterloo.

HAARLEM, JAN. 24.
Prince Frederick arrived here yesterday, Wand visited the great
barrack in which the troops that have landed from the Wassenaer
are quartered, and provided with new clothing. Of the troops
that were on board the Wassenaer when it stranded, only 15
men were missing.

Yesterday evening nothing more was known at the Helder re-
specting the Waterloo. The Curacoa steam-boat was still at sea,
but two vessels which returned the day before yesterday had
learned nothing of the ship; the wind, however, had prevented
them having any communication with the islands.
With respect to the report that a large ship had been seen in
tow at sea, we have heard no more of it.—Preparations were
made at the Helder to receive the troops that were on board.

ST. FETERSBURGA, JAN. 10.
On the Gth instant (Christmas Day, 0. S.) thanksgivings
were put up in all the churches of this capital, for the deli-
verance of Russia from the French invasion of 1812. The
capital was illuminated in the evening. The gallery of the
most distinguished heroes of the campaigns of 1812, 13, 14,
and 15, founded by the late Emperor Alexander, was solemnly
consecrated on the same day. This rich gallery is in the winter
palace, iu the centre of it is the full-length portrait of the late
Emperor Alexander. On each side are the portraits of their
Majesties the Emperor Austria and the King of Prussia, the
Grand Duke Constantine, Field Marshals Kutusow, Barclay de
Tolly, and Wellington. After these are the portraits of 340
Russian Generals. Twelve medallions with inscriptions in gold
letters, record the twelve most remarkable battles in the years
1812, 13, and 14.

On new year's day; according to the Greek calendar (the 13th
nstantl there will be a splendid Court masquerade in the Taurie
/7

Palace.

An extraordinary post has been established between Peters-
burgh and Tiflis, in Georgia. It is to be despatched twice a
week from this capital, and go by way of Moscow, Tula, Woro-
neseh, Novo Tscherkask, and Stauropol.
The severity with which the winter commenced has already
abated, which is a great hindrance to the arrivals from the interior.

COPENMAGIN, JAN. 20.
Onr Court goes into mourning to .morrow for four weeks, oh
account of the death of the Duke of York.

HAMBURG, JAN. 22.
In consequence of the continued frost for some days past, the
Elbe is covered with ice as far as Neumuhlen, and farther down
there is much floating, so that the Protector, Captain Jones, which
sailed for. this port, has been obliged to lie off Twienhufleth.
Some persons have crossed this morning for Harburg in small
sledges, but with great danger. ,

The contents of the private Letters received per the packet,
exhibit the energy and activity of Bolirar in an extraordinary
degree, and on whom they have conferred the title of Dictator, im-
mediately on his arrival. Some important and beneficial orders were
given, and a severe system of economy ordered ; the army was
to be reduced to 6,000 men, the naval expenditure lessened, and
the vessels dismantled and sold ; and among other measures the ex-
penees of Government reduced to 400,000 dollars per annum, and all
unnecessary offices, and supernumeraries discharged. From the
general complexion of the intelligence, it is to be reasonably hoped
that by these reductions, aided by the talent and ability, as well
as the energy of Bolivar, that he will be able to re-establish
affairs in the Republic, and again :revive the appearance of hi■
native Country. No difficulty seems too great for this great man,
and he will gain additional claims to the gratitude of every Colom-
bian.
