tett. The campaign has already eottuneneed, under
the most favourable auspices. Lord WELLINGTON'S
force is little short of 100,000 men. The British apd
Portuguese amount to 70 or 80,000 men, 10,000 of
which are cavalry; and the Spaniards actually in the r
field cannot be less than 30,000. A Lisbon Paper
calculates the force of the enemy opposed to
the Allies at 55,000 infantry, and 7000 horse; but
this is perhaps too low an estimate. Lord WEL-
LINGTON% army consists, as we have already stated,
of three divisions. The centre, composed entirely of
light troops, is commanded by Lord WILLINGToN in
wson. The right, under Sir ROWLAND HILL, is
moving in a parallel direction with his Lordship, on
the left bank of the Douro. In the mean time, the
Main' body of the army, under Sir THOMAS GRAHAM,
was to proceed along the right bank of the river, and
clear it of the enemy; and by this judicious move-
ment, the necessity of forcing the passage of the
Douro, at all times an arduous and sanguinary en-
terprize, is entirely superseded. The whole army
was expected to join at Valladolid on the Bth.

Two Heligoland Mails arrived this morning ; but
they bring no intelligence from the Elbe later than
the 3d of June. The following are French accounts,
and are therefore to be received with caution. We
were previously acquainted with the particulars
through other channels.

" ALTONA, JUNE 3.
" Alterations of importance have taken place in
our neighbourhood since Sunday the 30th of May.
Hamburgh on that day again became subject to his
Imperial Majesty Napoleon, and was taken posses-
sion of by the French troops. A stillness of some
days, in which nothing new was undertaken by either
party, preceded this great catastrophe. The Swedish
troops had left the city already on the Wednesday,
and on Friday after they also quitted Bergedorf, a
place two German miles from hence, only General
Von Boyer, with his Staff, remaining behind in it.
N,:vertheless the means of defence were indefatigably
attended to by the Russian General Von Tettenborn,

and the entrenchments thrown up at the gates were

nearly completed, and the cannon planted in them.
" He had, in the mean time, transferred his head-
quarters to a place'close to the borders of the Danish

district of Reinbeck, called the Lilsen Heller.

" In the night between Friday and Saturday the
French took possession of Ochsenwerder, which is
separated from the main land only by a small arm of
the Elbe. Hereupon, in the same night, a new
heavy cannonade commenced against the city, which
continued from half past two, till near four o'clock,
during which many grenades fell into the street,
which, though they did not set fire to the houses, yet
did considerable damage to the buildings, and which
was answered with considerable vigour on the Russian
side, by heavy artillery.
46 On Saturday, the 29th, the Schleswick . regi-
ment of infantry, four battalions strong, marched
into Altona, under the command of Colonel Von Cas-
toneer, and on the same day many flags of truce were
sent b tckiords and forwards.
In the following night the continued movements
of the Danish sAdiery, the bringing up a considera-
ble train of batieting artillery, and the ordnance
riding to and fio, made Altona very unquiet.
44 Very few of ;lie inhabitants ventured to go to
sleep in the night, being in anNious 'expectation of
what was to take place. Next morning we were in-
formed that General Tettenborn had made knov.sn to
the inhabitants of Hamburgh, that on account of the
approaching superiority of numbers, he could not de-
fend the city, and that therefore lie departed with the
remainder of his own and the greater part of the new
raised troops on the road to Berofdorff. The Burghers
were then required, by an Adjutant of the Prince of
Eckinulil, to by down their arms, to submit to his
Majesty the Emperor Napoleon, and till the arrival
of French corps of troops for the maintenance of good
order and tranquility, to receive a Danish garrison
, within their walls.
44 These conditions were accepted, and towards
noon a considerable corps of Danish troops, infantry,
cavalry, and artillery entered the city, the command
of which was given, for the present, to Colonel Von
Waldak. The same evening the French troops ex-
pected entered the city, and the Danish military
again retired to Altona. The French Author ities
have from this date in general entered on their func-
tions, and the city now enjoys thorough repose and
tranquillity.
44 Yesterday, by orders of the Prefect Baron de
Breteuil, the citizens were obliged to surrender their

arms and ammunition.
" That in the last unquiet weeks, great numbers
of the peaceable inhabitants have left the city, or at
least sent away their families from it, is natural to
suppose ; but it is not to be doubted, that when peace
and quiet are become thoroughly restored, at least the
greater part of them will return again—Harnburgh
having, in this short time, lost perhaps one-fourth.part
of its inhabitants.
" His Royal Majesty has appointed Lieutenant-
Colonel d'Aubert to be Commandant of our city."
