JULY 20.

By an Imperial Ukase, bearing date the 22d June,
it has been enacted, that no foreign vessel of any na-
tion whatsoever, which has set Sall from Sweden, or
touched at a Swedish port, shall be admitted in any
Russian harbour during the present war with his Swe-
dish Majesty, and that during the same period no
ships shall be permitted to sail from any Russian
port fcr Sweden, whether in ballast, or laden ; lastly,
that in case of any Russian commodities being shipped
fur a foreign harbour, the proprietor of such goods
shall make an affidavit that they are not intended for
the subjects of any power at war with Russia.

CON TANTJNOPLE, JUNE 28.

The French Chargé d'Affaires at the Ottoman
Porte, M. de la Tour Maubourg, received-the 17th
instant a courier from his Court, with dispatches re-
lating to the change of Government, which has lately
taken place in Spain, and has given official notice
thereof to the Divan.

The Spanish Ambassador at this Court, Marquis
d'Almenara, intends to depart for Spain in a. few
days.
The whole Archipelago, and in particular the
Gulph of Salonica, is infested by numberless priva-
teers, which greatly annoy the trade.
SEMLIN, JULY 15.
The city c,f Belgrade, and all the works of that
fortress, are occupied by the' Russians. Czerni
George has left his peaceful retreat at Topolla, and
taken up arms again. The Servians,..whq formerly'
anxiously desired the arrival of the Russians, would
now be very glad to see them quit Belgrade. Not-
withstanding the prolongation of the armistice foe
two months, the movements and warlike preparations
of the Bosnians on the frontiers of Servia are (Jail.),
increasing.

COPENHAGEN, AUGUST 4.

Between 20 and SO Surgeons were sent from hence
for our army in Norway two days since the inter-
change of flags of truce between Helsingburgh and
Elsineur continues to be frequent. Several prisoners
of war have passed and repassed by them ; but the
further object of this intercourse is not known ; but it
is supposed to have in view objects of more moment
than has yet resulted from it. Two large ships have
been fitted up out of the Nom, to serve as public
kitchens, &c. for the crews of our numerous gun-boats,
which have been very successful.

SOPHIELUND, JULY 20, nos.

PRIVATE LETTERS.
GOTTENBURGH, AUC;IiST 9.
In my last I communicated to you a report then
prevalent here, that Russia was about to join Trance
against Austria—the statement was said to rest or.
the authority of respectable letters from Russia. I
have made all the inquiry in my power, but have not
been able either to see any of these letters, or to 6nd
out by whom they have been received. All the in-
formation I can collect is, that Russia is indefatiga-
ble in reinforcing her already powerful army, and that
a division of troops, which was on its rouse from Es-
thouia to join the army in Finland, was counterman.
ded when within two days' march of the capital, and
it was expected, would be sent back. _

The treaty between the Austrian and ROW=
Courts, for the mutual delivery of deserters, has been
followed by several commercial arrangements, which
although unimportant in themselves, are at the present
moment of interest, as they chew the increasing amity
between the two empirn. A great number of sum
geons, at Vienna, &c. have.received permission front
the Emperor to enter the Russian service, and leave
has been granted to Russian Commissaries to draw
supplies of corn, &c. from Gallicia, although the ex-
portation to Silesia, where it is much wanted, is ri
gidly prohibited.

HE.LSINGBURGH, AUGUST 9,
Sir James Saumarez is about to proceed with the
Victory, and some other ships, into the GAlph of Fin.
land, for the purpose, it is stated, of communicating
to hik-Sotedlsh Majesty some intelligence, or overtures,
which have reached him from Russia, I fancy through
Dentaark. Captain Hope is the bearer of dispatches
to our Coverionent on the subject.
We have almost daily intercourse with Denmark.
I was at Elsineur some slays since in a flag of teuce,
and experienced from the Danes much civility. I be.
lteve they are heartily tired of French connection,zed
I am satisfieethat a like sentiment prevails alonphe
shores of the Baltic. Our cruizers in their occasional

intercourse with the laud, by flags of truce or *tbs.
wise, are every where received with kindness, parti•
cularly in Russia, where the Government appears to
participate ii the friendly disposition so strongly ma•
uitested by the people.

Since our last we have received Paris Papers to
the 6th, and Dutch to the 17th inst. Among out
extracts our ;leaders will see what sort of intelligence
is circulated on the Continent, respecting affairs in
Spain. According to these accounts, every thing goes
lon as prosperously as the French Emperor could
wish I
The Emperor ALEXANAZR has imitated the stupid
Policy of Ns.rox.zott, in prohibiting all neutrals who
have called at Swedish ports from entering Russian
harbours, durlig the continuance of the war between
ithese Powers.

The troops of the Rhenish Cestfederation begin at
Last to be put in motions but in Gesmseltharcily sae
seems to conjecture the cause.

Various letters and papers have also been received
from Hamburgh and the North of Europe. which
contain interesting details, given in another colour.
respecting the military movements on the Continent.
According to some accounts, Russia, as an auxi-
liary of France, is preparing to attack Austria: other
accounts, on the contrary, assert, that Russia and
Denmark have made same pacific overtures to this
country through Sir JAMS SAUMAIUtip and that Cap
min Hors, who arrived in town on Friday, brought
these propositions home with him.
We believe that the latter statement is founded oa
some mistake. Captain Hones misiios certainly re
lated to the Spanish troops at Fubnen and the neigh-
bouring islands, for the bringing off of whom the
King of Swat= and Sir JAMES SALIMAZU are UM.
derstood to have been making arrangements for some
time.

On this subject we copy the following article from
the Cakdonias Metuiy, a respectable Edinburgh Pa
per. received in town this morning

'papa; to the audience, captaining the following very
importuat intelligence P.—That a Gentleman had ar-
rived at Leith, that afternocn, from Gottenburgh,
who reports, that a deputation of,the Spanish army in
Holstein had waited on Admiral. Sir Jamas SAWA-
RIZ with an oiler of their whole force, to the amount
of. 11,500 men, to join the Patriots in their native
country ; and that Sir hams was making the neces-
sary preparations to get them sent to Spain."

Iu the Paper alluded to above, is added the follow-
ing paragraph :

" A vessel, arrived at Leith from the Baltic, brings
a report that 16,000 Spaniards had revolted against
the French, and opened a communication with Ad-
miral Sir JAMES SAVMAREZ, for the purpose of pro-
curing transports to convey them to Spain, to join
their brethren in arms, and to extirpate the oppres-
sors of their country."
