The many was polled at the village of Reduaion,
which was on an eminence about two miles from the
beach, with the appearance of a fine plain between
the two armies, which however proved on the follow-
ing morning to be only a morals in a high Rate of
verdure.
This, in Tome meafure, checked our advancement,
nor did the enemy open his field train till the troops
were nearly in the middle of the fwamp, from whence
he thought it was intestable for them to be extricated.
The able and excellent difpofition of General &-
regard, and the intrepidity of his army, very foon,
however, fatisfied the enemy that his only (afety was
in a precipitate retreat, for we had the fatisfaainn of
feting from the (hips near four thoufand Spool& ca.
valry, flying in every direftion, leaving their artillery
behind them, while our troops were akending the hill,
with that coolnefs and courage. which has on every
occaGon marked the chstraaer of a Bridal foldier,and
has been exemplified in proportion to the difficulties
and dangers by which he was oppofed.
I have probably trefpaffed on a line that does not

duty of reporting an honourable iffue to the eff‘a of
their eminent zeal and exertions.
On the nth. in the morning, we law tome firing
near the Banks of the river Chiulo, but it blew fo
hard that it was totally imprailicable to have any
communication with the &ore during that day.
Early on the sBth, a royal [elute was fired from
the Callle of Borzoi Ayres, in honour of his Majel

Mihaly returned by the (hips lying off the town.

THE EXPEDITIONS.
We have already Rated that the troops were de-
barked from the tranfports at Plymouth merely as
conducive to their health, till the period &mild ar.
rive lot their putting to lea. We can now Rate,
in confequesce of orders from the War Office,
camp at Buckland and Bickley Downs broke up
pa Friday, and that the gnaw part of the troops
have Noce been re-embarked on board the tranfpects
in Stonehoufe Pool. The 45th. had, and 87th regi-
tants of foot, went on board on Friday ; the Guards,
pd • Rtgatoent, and Rifle Corps, were embarked on
Saturday, and when our accounts left Plymouth, the
company of artillery, and the (toeen's Bays, about
sea in anasbar, were preparing to follow as quickly
mot immirports could be completed to receive them ;
fild,the whole were ezpeded to be on board this day.
Awn Rotes, that their rendezvous is to be Fal-
Month, where they are to be joined by the fquadroa
under the command of Rear Admiral Louis, at his
ye turn the troops are aU in high health and fpirin,
and teem to have been refrefbed very much by being
abore from the tranfports.
At Ransfgate too, every thing is again hs a Wile,
Seven brigs marked C. N. F. H. P. and No. 556 and
557, entered that harbour with a fine (hip marked I,
carrying a Commodore's flag. At four o'clock in
the afternoon the 89th Regiment, commanded by
Lord Btare sr. about Soo Rrong, entered Ramfgate
and proceeded to the barracks, where they were to
receive fosse refrefinnent previous to their being em-
barked. The Perthfhire Militia removed into tenu
on the top of the Cliff to make room in the barracks.
Part of the Royal Waggon Train are alto at karat
gate, but we have not heard whether any part of them
ate to be embarked.

HAMBURGH MAIL.
Yenerday the Hamburgh Mail, due on Weshul-
-1 day, was received at the Poll Office, as was silo a
Mail from Gottenburgb. from which we have given
'atitple extraes in onr fill page. The preparations
hit war in the Pruffian dominions Rill continue; and,
to judge from this bunk, it might be expefted that
"Ave boailities were about to commence. The
greatell pains are taken to enflame the people and
the armies. The Berlin Newfpapers- c,ontain war
tongs, and anecdotes are related to rouse the ardour
of the troops. It is remarked, that on the 29th of
Auguft, 1756, the garrifon of flerlin quilted the city
on the commencement of the gloriou s feven years war,

and on the fame day 1806, after the lapfe of so years,
the firft divilion of the garrifon marched out. At
Muniler, General &voila harangued the troops,
and tilled upon them, fhould circumfiances demand
their exertions, to maintain the reputation of the
Pruffian arms. A convention between Priam and
He& has been concluded, and all the He fan troops
will aft in concert with.Pruirra. A camp is to be
formed between Burg and Magdeburgh. and all the
regiments in Silelia have received orders to march
into Saxony. The KiNG himfclf, it is raid, is fowl
to join the army.

It is repn►ted that the Emperor of Russia is foon
expelled at Berlin, where apartments are preparing
for his reception. It appears certain that the mu*
perfell undcrftanding prevails between the Courts of
Delia and St. reterfburgh.

Of his eloquence sod debating powers, it is not
