lIAMBURGH MAIL.

Brawl, SEPT. 7.—On Wednefday lan General
DUROC dined with the King and all the Royal Fa-
mily. Field Marfhal MOLLINDOF.F, the Minifters of
State SCHULENBERG and HARDENERRO, and feveral
other perfons of diftinftion, were alfo prefent. The
fame day General Duette (upped with his Royal
Highnefs Prince FERDINAND. The day before yef-
terday the French Minifter gave a grand dinner, and
yefterday another was given by General MOLLSII•
DORFF, in honour of the French General. A great
number of Minifters and Generals were prefent at

thefe dinners.
Since the arrival of General Duaoc great aaivity
has been obferved in our Cabinet. From that mo-
ment the Foreign Minifters, and particularly thofe of
Ruffia and Auaria, have appeared extremely bufy.
They have within a Rion time difpatched feveral
couriers to their refpeaive Courts. The Ruffian
Amharalor has within the laR week fent off no lets
I than three meffengers to Peteriburgh. The exchange
of couriers between the different Courts of the Conti-
nent was never fo frequent as at this moment.
&immix& ro.—The French Martha' Duzoc is
Rill here, and does not appear likely to depart be-
fore he receives further orders from his Sovereign, to
whom he has feat a Courier. We ire informed that,
fince his arrival, the Kimo of Paussia has made
freth propofitions to the Courts of Vienna and St.
Peteriburgh, for the prefervatiot of peace. Hence
it appears how much our Sovereign has the welfare
of nation' at heart. May his generous withes be

fulfilled !
It is remarked, that the Auftrian Emmy, Count
MITTERVICH, was invited to a grand dinner lately
given by the French Minitler, M. LAYOUT.
By virtue of an order from his Majefty, 100,000
men have received direitions to hold themfelves in
readinefs to march. The day before yellerday a
Grand Council of State was held, at which all the
Minifters and principal Generals were prefent. Some
days before couriers had been fent off to St. Peterf-
burgh and Vienna, with difpatches relative to the
prefent fituatiop of affairs.
The Minißer of State, Count Hauowirz, has ar-
rived in this city; it ti be
believed that he will go to Paris.
The exportation of grain and of horfet is prohi-
bited in Pruffia, by a Cabiuet order of the 7th inflant,
on pain of forfeiting the property, and the Chip' or
the waggons and horfes by which it is conveyed.

Hastauttant 9 SIFT. to.—Letters from Petal:.
burgh, dated the 25th of Anguft, inform us, that on
the preceding day three regiments of infantry, and
one of hears, marched from that city, and were to
be followed by four battalions of guards. Several
furgeons belonging to the Court have received or-
ders to attend regimmu of the line, and have al-
ready proceeded to join their corps: the hay barna
has been extremely plentiful through all Raffia, and
with refpeet to grain, there is alto a profpea of
abundant crops. 'The great number of merchant-
men which the Ruffian Government has taken up,
has railed the price of freight. A want of thinning
for the expititation of Ruffian merchandise is already
felt at Peteifittirgh. We alto learn' from Copenha-
gen. that Ruffia has hired fo many thins there, that
a &Ole difference has taken place in the price of
freight..
' Letters from the Ruffian frontiers, dated the 28th
of Auguß, Rate, that the Grand Duke CONITANTINI
has already commenced his march at the head of his
regiment. It is now Connoted that this Prince will
have no particular command, but that he will cond•
nne to Cave' with' his own regiment. Count MAII.
corr, the late Miniller of State. has been fummoned
to Petertburgh. The plan of the campaign about •
be commenced, was drawn up by General Von Su o-
Tit Ew ; that General, and Generals Ktrrosor,
BENNIGSEN, ESSEN, LACY, and M11'0111.115011, are
to he the principal commanders in the army. •
MrIhaI•BFRNADOTTII hes notified to the Execu-
tive Commiffion of Hanover. that the Contribetion

March, molt ceafe on the 2.3 d of the prefent month ;
other meafures mull therefore be taken to provide for
the pay of the troops. •
A private letter from Hanover rays, Couriers are
contlantly palling and repaffing, and theme an hour
elapfes in which we do, lickfee Arne arrive and de-
part. The nature of the intended military opera-
tions remains a complete ferret ; meanwhile the
troops are incelfantly marching. The generals and
principal officers have all their baggage packed up,
and are ready to proceed at a moment's notice, 'A
letter from Lemberg fays, that the Fren'elVtroops in
Hanover are to be relieved by 30,000 Pruffians, but
we know not how far this news is to be depended upon.

by the way of Munich. This Envoy Extraordinary
comely flopped in Augfburgh to change horfes. and

SIQNO4.Y:SEPITEMER 13.

The ENDIAVOIIIto arrived ;t Scilly on the 16th
infant, in ty hours, from the fleet off Oren, confifla
ing of so fail of the line. The Captain reports that
a French fquadron, confining of five fail of the line,
was cruising off the Penmarks, and that Admiral
CoaswaLats had detached fire fail of the line to
cruiae for them; but no account was heard from
them when he left the fleet on Sunday (the ilth)
aj
nine o'clock at night.

The following Bulletin was circulated yellerdar
among the Cabinet Mini(ler• :
.ADMIRALTY4FETCE, SEPT. ss, 1805._

" Advieei have been received from Vice-Admiral Cot !Aye.
WOOD, dated off Cad,' the sStk nit. at which time be continued

Mifelves that they wiU be fully able cc keep the enemy's &et in
check; dr- Admiral bisLiou arrives."
The folloWing was alto difpatched to the City for
the information of the Merchants :
• ADMikALT4I-OFFICE, SEPT. as. goS•
The Litton convoy, under protedion of his Maielly's OLP
Paulette, and Malabar • armed trenfport, was to rail in 45 hoe"
Act the Panama, Width brings this account, and is 20derft"
to have left the Talus on the sth inftant. The convoy conliaici

" There is malls to believe that rice jusaion of his ivisjeilo
Sgoadrons, beim Cadiz, took plain on the aoth or 3oth ult. aid
that the enemy'. &xi was ftill in port."
From the tenor of the above communications,
it
is evident that the enemy's fleets had futfered more
materially in the late aCtion, and required more ex•
tertfive reparation, than in their oftentatious accoutus
thty were difpofed to admit. If their fquadron. hal
been really in that lief of good order and complete
equipment which they reprefent, they Curtly would
not hive remained inaftive in the port of Cadiz fo
late as the 3oth nit. whilfi awed by the prefence alone
of the (mall fqoadrOn which Admiral Cott' wavneel

intrepidly kept in fight of then at *Anent): oft thatporL '
11Thatever may have been their efforts to prepare for
another expedition, we can have no doubt that the
united force of Admirals CoLLINGWOOD and CAL..
R, amoutiting to 26 fail of the line, will be fuf_
ft.:ent to keep them effeelually in check.

Since our laft we have received French journals
to the t4th, and Dutch to the isoth intl. from which
we have given fome intereQing extraes in the preced-
ing columns ; but the moll important article in the
papers which we received firft in order, is the French
Anfwer to the Note delivered by M. Novostvrzovs
to the Pruffian Minifter, on returning the paffports
he had received. This official communication is en.
tirely in the fpirit of the article inferted in the French
papers, under the head of intelligence from Berlin,
when it was :afcertained that the negociation was
broken off ; a tranflation of which appeared in our
paper of the sth of laft month.
If we are to believe BONAPARTE, he granted the
paffports for M. Novosivrzove without eking or
receiving explanations, and then expreffed his opi-
mion, that no hopes of the tranquillity of the world
could be founded upon that negociation." Why
were they tranfmitted then ? Truly, for no other
purpofe than that of making " fome jut' and fevere
xeprefentations to Ruffia, on her conduit in Afia,
and to the Ottoman -empire." M. NOVOSILTZOFF
♦vas to he wheedled down from St. Peterfburgh to
Paris, not for the purpofe of indemnifying the King
of SARDINIA, fecuring the independence of Napless
fettling the affairs of Italy, or treating upon any
other of the great objeas in difpute—but to re-
ceive a le lure upon the ambition of his matter !
After having been thus fchooled by TALLETIAND, or
fome other of the French col: ditiontatique, he was to
be fent back, no doubt, with juft as much refpee and
decorum as Lord MALMESISURY was difmiffed from
Paris or Line. The failure of the negotiation is re.
petted, only becaufe this admirable opportunity of
it-Suiting the Emperor of Ruffia, in his reprefentative,
was 101 l through it. BONAPARTE, it appears, was
more anxious to inflict this mortification, than to ac-
quire any frefh claim to his title of " Grand Pacifi-
rztor." The greater part of Europe, he fermi to
think, cannot be better than under his protection, and
all his cares and folicitude are dirceed to the happi-
ntfs of the Porte and Perfia.

Notwithßanding the ill fuccefs of his late interfer-
ence, his Pruffian Majefly is Paid to have made a
fccond effort to prevent hollilities. Doaoc is fup.
toted to have communicated fome frefb propofitions,
for the purpofe of having them tranfmitted to the
Emperor of Ruffia by the Court of Berlin. Duaoc
remained in that capital on the loth inßant, waiting
for new intim/Hons.—Some rumours attribute the
sine:peeled appearance of this confidential agent in
the Pruflian capital, to the proteAion which his Ma-
jelly is Paid to have given to the EleBor of Heffe,
who has ordered the formation of a camp of i 5,000
men in his Rates.

Two Hamburgh Mails, due on Sunday fe'nnight
and Wednefklay 'all, arrived lafi night. Some of
their contents have been anticipated by the French
and Dutch Papers; but, notwithfianding, they pre-
fent f)me interefting details refpefting the movements
taking place among the forces belonging to the diffe-
rent Continental Powers.

te
Id
ro

From their contents, compared with the French
and Dutch Journals, it appears that the Auftrian
force is divided into three great armies, one in Italy,
under the Archduke Crialets ; another in the Tyrol,
under the Archduke JOHN ; and the third under the
F.MPEP.:)R in perfon, in the hereditary Rates. The
Era is deftir•.ed to trots the Adige ; the army under
the Arcltdit;c Joirw is to occupy Switzerland; and
the EMPEROR himfeif is to advance into Bavaria.-
1-11. Imperia: Kijely was to leave Vienna the firft
sv....ek in Septembel : the Archdukes had previoufly
let nut to afrume their refpeelive commands.
The Emperor ALE X ANIP R. was fhortly ezpefted to
leave St. Peteributgh, and repair to Wilna; where
the head-quarters of the army which he was to lead
were already eftablifhed: a frefh corps of 15,0c0
men were embarked at Odeffa, part of which had
arrived at Conflantinople, and 30,000 men were
under orders of embarkation at Reval and St. Pe-
terlbtagh. Eighty merchant !hips, of different na-
tions, which arrived at the harbour of Ode& in the
Black Sea to load with corn, have been taken up to
carry Ruffian troops to Corfis.

The ezertions of France are not inferior to thole of
Aunt is and Ruilia. She will have concentrated, by
the end of the month, an immenfe force on the
Rhine, fram Mentz to New Brifac; and all Piedmont
and the Mllanefe are (tripped of their garrifons and
Eying camp:, to thengthen the Army of Italy.-
IiONAPAILTE will command in chief on the Ger-
man theatre of the war ; Jotransm, who obtained
fuch high reputation by his tnallerly difpofitions at
the battle of Fleurus, will be invelled with the com-
mand in Italy.
The members of the Germanic Empire, to wel-
ter themfelves from the form as well as they can,
are endeavouring to enablilh leagues of neutra-
lity. Some of them, particularly thofe within the
immediate proteftion of Profta, may pollibly fuc-
teed ; but no Inch advantage is, it teems, to be al-
lowed to the newly created Eleetors of Baden and
Wirtemberg. They are bound by fecret treaties to
France ; and BON•PISIVIA Wilts upon the find per-
!trounce of the bond.
