We base this day inferted the remainder of the
difpatches from Admiral Glll4llla and Lord CATH-
CART.

The progrefs of the liege is detailed in the journal
of the army, which is continued from the silt ult.
to the In irritant. The befieging army broke ground
on the :Bth Angutt, and continued their labours
unremittingly till the 24th, when they advanced
nearer to the town. In (even days after, all the
preparations for the attack were completed, and on
the to inflant, the place was fummoned, and the
offers renewed which had before been made and re-
jetled, but without effett. The fummons threatened,
that if thefe offers were rejected, the city, if taken,
would be treated as a conquered place—(but a dif-
ferent fpirit pervades the terms of the furrender).—
The Governor refuted to fur render ; and, on the ad
inflant, the bombardment commenced. and was con.
tinued till the evening of tl a sth, when an overture
for capitulating was made by the garrifon, and the
terms were fettled next day.
'While thefe operations were going on, tome deci-
five advantages were obtained over a Danifh corps,
confining of regulars and militia, in the interior of
the ihland. General CasrsasKlOLD, who commanded
this force, was attacked, on the a9th of Anglin, try
Sir Amity". Ws:Au:Art, and totally defeated.—
Another Dana corps, destined to cooperate with
ir, was alto encountered by Maj ,r General Da be-
SENGILM, detached on the fame fervice with Sir A.
\VELLISLLY, and difperferl, a great part of it being
taken prifoners. Thefe, and the furprife of Freder•
ickfwo:k by Brigadier General Duet*, were the
only affairs of any confequence, exclufive of the liege.
The condud of this laft ()Meer was as humane as it
was judicious. Notwithilanding he met with con-
fiderable annoyance from the armed peafantty, a
number of them who fell into his hands were libe-
rated as loon as it could be done with fafety. How
unlike the conduEl of the French Commanders, who
invariably ordered perfons of this defcription, though
fighting in the molt facred caufe that could route
human exertion, to be put to death
The Danes made a vigorous refinance confidering
how unprepared they were for the attack. General
PEIMAM did not fend out a flag of truce until a
breach, nearly praaicnble, was dialed, and himfelf
wounded feverely. Neither in thedifpatches, nor in
any of,the letters which we have teen, is there any
eltimate of the Vs (Whined by the town of Oven-
Ihagen ; but from the weight and continuance of our
fire, and the numerous population, it mull have been
very great. No lets than ftatyeight pieces of ord-
nance, exclufive of the fire from the bomb veffels,
opened againtt it.

The following extra& of a letter from the vicinity
of Coyenlugen exhibits a faint piaure of the circa.
of the bombadrnent

" COPENHAGEN, SEPT. L

" The day before the Danes prspofed to capitulate, one third
of the town appeared io a blase, aid a column of fire was riling
the whole night, which appeared from our windows (about two
mile, from the town) of at kilt half a miie in diameter. A tim-
ber yard brit took fire, and a (mall powder magazine blew up.—
After that, the flames raged with fuch fury, the wind being ttrorg,
as to defy all means of extinguifking them. If the wind had net
changed, the whole town Alta have been deltroyed. The great
beep!: fell in with a tremendous craft ; lbco houfes are laid to
have been deitroyed. Excepting when the bombs were eying,
there was nn appearance of war. Many of the peafants cut their
corn all around the different camps, and were protected. The
Danes arc very much exarperated apinft Ili, efpecially at the fight
of our tars rigging their blips to bring them away."

Other dirpatches were received yeflerday from Co-
penhagen, brought by the Hon. Captain PACNT, of
the CAHBAIAN, which bring the accouuts down to the
t tth inflant, at which tints our gallant Tars were
bufily employed in eqnipping the Danifh fleet, all of
which, it was thought, would, by the indefatigable
zeal of Admiral ST•HHOPI and Sir Hors POPHAM,
be in readinefs for fea in about ten days. The Stores
are very abundant, and it is fuppofed will 611 the
whole of the Flet.t and Traniports.
Directions haves been fent to Chatham and Sheer-
nets for receiving 'the Dana fleet at chore plum ;
and as the number of feamen that will be neceffary to
navigate them will be more than can poffibly be
(pared from the men of war off Copenhagen, direct
tinns were yeflerday given to Ca pt_ aln . R ..ocosatr., the
Regulating Officer in town, to propore to the crews
of the flips recently arrived from the Greenland
tilhery, to proceed to Copenhagen without delay, for
the purpofe of king put on board the Danifh Ships to
navigate them to England. For this fervice they
are to receive a bounty, and the other nfual allow.
ances, and will alfo be entitled to their protections
from the imprefs, on their return, is the fame manner
as they are from the flips employed in the Greenland
Misery.
