13y Mr. Plitt RI potryr, who arrived yefterday from
the Continent, Government received difpatches from
the Court of Pruffia, and the details of the battle
Eylau, as tranfmitted to Lord HUTCHINSON. We
underftand that they agree in fubaance very minutely
with the particulars that have already been laid be.
fore the public. Their publication will, therefore, it
is probable, be deemed unneceffary.

The Notification of the Magiaracy of Memel,
which we laid before our Readers yefterday, may be
confidered as the Royal Pruffian Bulletin of the
Battle of Eylau. The King of Pietism being at
Memel, the publication was probably a counterpart
of the accounts received by his Majefty.
Various rumours were circulated yeflerday of ac-
counts received in private letters by the Mail, of fame
fighting Paid to have taken place fubfequent to the
Bth ult. but it was impoffible to find in them any
thing precife, nor do we believe they are well founded.
The Liberty, SMITH, arrived at Hull on Wednef-
day morning, from Tonningen, which place (he left
on the sth irritant, Rates, that on the preceding day,
at a Merchant's houfe, he heard a letter read, dated
Konigfberg, February 26, in which it was Rated that
the Ruffians hadcompleteiy defeated the French, with
the lots of from 20 to 30,000 men, and driven them
acrofs the Willa. A letter had alfo been received
at Tonningen, from Franckfort, but the date of
which he did not hear, in which it was announced
that the Außrians had declared againft the French.
Had this veffel brought accounts of the battle of
Eylau, and alfo the above as fomething later, it
might have deferved notice ; but the fail is otherwife•
' The Emperor cf RUSSIA has given a frefh inflance
of an enlightened and benevolent mind in an Ultafe,
which has recently been iffued at Peteriburgh in fa-
vour of Commerce. In order to give more confide-
ration and diflinftion to Commercial purfuitts, the.
Ukafe recommends the eftablifbment of Commercial
Companies. It allows the Nobility to become Mem-
bers of the fill and fecond claffes of Merchants, it
being the anxious with of the Emperor, to draw
clofer the ties between thefe two defcriptions .of his
fubjeds. Wholefale Merchants may even afpire to
the fiat offices of the Rate, and are to have the pri-
vilege of appearing at Court. Meafures are alfo to
be taken to preferve and perpetuate the names of the
moil eminent Merchants, and tranfmit them with
diflinftion to pofterity.
The rupture between Rullia and the Porte, or the
apprehenfion rather, that the energetic meafures of
the Gamer will completely fruftrate the views which
France has long had towards the Turkifh provinces,
appears to have much irritated and embarraffed Bo-
MAPARTE. 'A Meeting of the Senate lately took placsa,
on the fubjeft, in which a long letter from his Malay
the Emperor was read. It will be feen by the fol-
lowing extraft from it, that nothing lets than thz
complete re-eftablifhment of the French influence at
`Conflantinople, which necaarily excludes that of the
Court of St. Peterfburgh, will fatisfy him:

Who could calculate the duration of the wars,
and the number of campaigns which muff be made,
to repair the misfortunes which would refult from the
lots of Conflantinople, if the love of cowardly repore,
and the pleafures of a metropolis, fhould predomi..
nate over the fuggellions of a wife fpis it of precau-t,
tion? We fhould then leave to our pofterity a protraft.
ed inheritance of wars and misfortunes. Should thtt
Greek Tiara difplay its triumphant influence from Om
Baltic to the Mediterranean, we fhould fee, even in
our titre, our provinces attacked by a crowd of fana-
tics and barbarians ; and if, in this too long pro•
traded ccnfliet, civilized Europe fhould peril)]* out
criminal indifference would juffly excite the cottt•
plaints of pufterity, and would be marked as an op.
probrium in the page of hiflory.
46 The Emperor of Neste, haraffel in the intd-
rior of this kingdom, as Poland was during a courfe
of fiaty years, and as Turkey has been for the fall
twenty years, and all produced by the policy of the
Court of St. Peterfburgl►, is animated by the fame
fentiments as the Porte, has taken the fame refolo-
tions, and marches in perfon to the Caucafus, to de-
fend his frontiers.

,g In this Rate of things peace cannot be durable,
unlefs it guarantees the entire independence of there
two great -empires f and if by the unbounded injte-
lice and ambition of our enemies the war fnould
continue, our people will, by their energies and their
love for our perfon, prove themfelves worthy of the
elevated deftinies which will crown our labours, atnd
can alone fecure a long and folid peace to dole the
prefent feafon of glory."

Readers fome other articles, for which we could 'Ant
yet yefterday find room.
