In addition to the incouveniencies to which it was
natural we fhiuld be expofed, in the firfl moments of
an unexpeeed attack, we have received intelligen:e
of two Moires; the fira, the frigate FriederickiCoarn,
placed as a guard 'hip in the Sound, and which had
orders to fail to N irwm. As this vefrel was very old,
and only armed with ta-pounders, the lot. is not con-
liderable, that of the officers and men excepted ; but
whichy in a guard (hip, were much fewer in number
than in any other (hip of war. The other lofs which
we allude to, is that of the 'Maud of Heliviand,
taken by the Englids.
Our commerce, however, in the neighboutiog
feas, will not Wirer much, as the necelTary adasout•
tiaras have been fent to all the ports, efpeciaUy to

betides the Galley Fleet, confills of two (hips of the

TONNINGEN, AUG. 24.
The inhabitants acid the garrifon of Copenhagen
have ad.-pted a meafure, which (hews the firtnnefs
of their ref( luti4n to defend themfelves to the fall.
They have burred the fuhtirb of the Weflerbrug, that
extends towards Frederickfberg, and under cover i f
which the Eoglifh had begun to throw up works. In
the fortie made for that purpofe, about 20 Dane.,
and too Englith were killed, and so of the latter
brought into Copenhagen as ptifoners. In the mean
while the Danes in Zealand teem firong enough not
to confine themfelves merely to the relief of Copen
hagen. General Kartentkiold is in the rear of the
Englifh with 11,Goo regular troops, and a body of
militia; and a rumour is already fpread of an action,
in which the enemy have been defeated. However
this may be, this bold manceuvre of our General will
make us mailers of the Wellern coati of Zealand.
whither, by means of a favourable opportunity, relief
may be fent from the ifland of Fuhnen, to which the
!mirage from Jutland teems 11111 to remain unob

Oar army in Holflein is in full march. Only
a very frn.ill cordon remains upon the limits of Lan-

The poll, Which left Copenhagen on the 16th,
was detained upon the Great Belt by the Englifh,
twelve hours, and fearchcd, but at length !offered to
pars both with money and letters. All communica-
tion by the Great Belt has fince been cut off by the
Engla, which is prnbahly the reafon why we have
no further intelligence of the affair between General
Karßenkiold and the enemy. In the fortie made for
burning the fubtirb of the Wellerbrug, the Danes
bad three killed and az wounded. In the fight at
fea, on the t7th, an Englifh frigate was fo much
damaged, that it was found neceffary to tow her
away. The Englifh fleet at prefent confills of about
3co fail.
Prince Charles of Heffe, Governor of Slefwick and
has given notice, that letters of marque
are ready to be granted ag.tinft the Englifh. In all
the trading towns in the Duchies, notice has been
given, that, after the term granted to the poffeffors
of Englifit property for announcing the fame, a re-
ward will be paid to any perfon giving that informa-
tion, in proportion to the value of the faid property ;
and tally, the following Declaration has been pub-
Lilted by our Court :
" All Europe is acquainted with the fyftem which Denmark
has followed, during a period of is years of war and difturbance,
with unsealing perfeveranee. The rigid obfervance of a free and
impartial neutrality, and the confeientious fulfilment of all the du-
ties belonging tbereunte, have formed the objeft of all its willies
and all its efforts. The Dania Government, in its relations and
connexions with other States, has never loft fight of that firripliclty
which was infeparable from the purity of its fentiments and its
love of peace. and which it cannot be fufpedted of having once
charged or debilitated. Hitherto Providence has bleffed our un-
dettakinp. Without injoftice, without any ground of reproach
from any of the other Powers, we fueceeded in keeping up a good
underflanding with the whole of them. This hats of peace and
trauquillity is Padden!, annihilated. The Englins Government, after
having long negletted its own *weevils by a annelid inadivity, and
later having betrayed its Allies into a vexatious and uncertain strug-

We ilia keep up a good uncle. standing with the

Crown Pi ince ; fince which, feveral other Swedes
have paired without interruption. The armed yacht
left Kiel on the 20th.
LEYDEN, AUGUST sB.

The Mon/tear of the 23d, after giving tome account
of affairs in the North of Enrope,, between the Eng.
IA and the Danes, mentions, likewife, that the King
of Denmark declared war on the t 3th. The Moniteur
concludes with the following remark :—" Denmark
ball loon have men and money fufficient to carry her
through the conteft ; and &teethe Danifh people allift
their Prince in oppoling a horrible at of oppreffion,
the Emperor will not fuller Denmark to want either
men or money. The hillory of nations afidrds no

England, like France, had an army of eight or nine

ROTTERDAM, AUGUST 3r.
The Monikur contains the following article from
Kiel, dated Augull rB, relative to the conference
between the Crown Prince of Denmark and Mr. Jack.
fon, the Englilh :
_ _

" Without Offering any reafone, England demanded an alliance,
offenlive and defenfive. As a guarantee, the alto required the
transfer of the Danilh fleet, the Cattle of Cronenburg, and the city
of Copenhagen. The Crown Prince 'visaed there propnfals, with
all the difdain they merited. He itsferved to Mr. jackfon, that
hiltory afforded no example of fuels an unjuß attack .as that with
which Denmark was threatened: and that in future more good
with would be cxpedted from the Algcrine pirates than from the
nglilh Government! • You propnfe an alliance, (aid the Prince.
hut we are too wdl acquainted with the nature of your alliances.
Your allies, who have been waiting in vain for your alliftance
throughout the whole year, have taught us what we are to expeilt
from your alliances !'
" Mr. Jackson 11..ving remarked, that the Crown Prince fpnke
to him in very ha& terms, his Hightiefs replied, that when a man
had the hardinefs to take (tacit a million as Mr. jackfun's upon him-
'elf, he ought to make up his mind for hearing all that coAd be
againft it; and further. that what be had then laid to his Nei

HANOVER, AUGUST ea.

The flower of the French army, viz. 1 2000 of the
Imperial Guards, kern to have changed their r.inte
and their dellination. They were afrembled at
Berlin, and were to pats the Rhine at Mentz, to
which place fame of them had proceeded. The
greater part have now direeed their march to the
Northward, and are ezpeaed here. Their Comman-
dant, General Walther, artived here at eight o'clock
lag night, and alighted at the Palace.
AUGUST 26 —An uncommon movement prevails
among the French troops, and their allies, in the
North of Germany. Several corps are marching
from Strallund to Lo4ver Saxony. The Dutch regi
meats have arrived in Lauenburg and Lunenhurg ;
and vefierday the firft divifion of the French Impe-
rial Grenadier Guard, 1200 in number, entered this
city.

STRALSUND, AUGUST so.

Our city has fallen, at length, and much loaner
than was expelled. The French entered it to-day.
The trenches were opened in the night between the
15th and tifith. The Swedes had the advantage of
moonlight. It kerns they were under a millake, and
flattered themfelves that the motions they obferved
in the French camp were in confequence of the felli•
vities which had been übferved on the t sth, on account
of the Emperor's birth day. But early in the morning
of the 16th, they found that the trenches were opened
clofe under the wall. They then, too late, commenced
a heavy fire, but the bcfiegers were too well covered
to receive any injury. Abcnit twelve men were
wounded, and three killed. In the four following
days, theft trenches were carried on fo far, that in the
courfe of forty eight hours longer the town might
base been fet on fire, and a pratticahle breach made.
Now the King began to Hen to the petitions of the
inhabitants, and the advice of his officers; and after
nailing fume of the cannon, he embarked with his
troops on board a number of veffels in the port, and
;miffed over to Rugen. The guard on the walls and
gates was left to the Burghers, and the command of
the place unrolled to the King's Adjutant General
(Peyron), who at fix o'clock this evening repaired to
the French head quarters, with a deputation from the
Magifirates, and made an offer to Marlin! Brune to
capitulate, which was refilled. The Martha! imme-
diately gave orders for the place to be taken pofl'effion
of, and at (even o'clock feveral companies of grena-
diers entered the pluce.
The Burghers were much alarmed:at fiat, left the
place fhould be treated according to the laws of war;
but they were foon tranquillized by Mat that Brune,
who followed the troops on horfeback. He, after
confoling all the Burghers whom he faw at their
doors and windows, proceeded to the Government
Houle. At this moment an unlucky circumftance ,
occurred. which we cannot but regret. The Swedins 1
gartifon in the little Maud of Dienholm began to fire
upon the place : it kited only a fhort time, and a
woman was killed. At eleven at night Martha' Brune
returned to the head quarters at Andeifhoff.
The King Items to have forefeen the neceffity of
evacuating the place. Orders were iffued on the gth
to Baron Ellin. for removing every thing belonging
to G .vernnsent to the ifland of Rugen. 'The few
pr ironer: of war which our tro vs have made in their
fhort campaign, ur rather during their f )rtie before
this place wa. inve(led the la I time, have been fent
over to Sweden, whet e they are employed as labourers

upon the public works. Count)!Micas, the Envoy of
the fqevant French Royal Family at Mittau, has
had hi; audience of leateof his Majefty, and is gone
to Courland.

ROSTOCK, AUGUST as. •
The fire of the Swedes upon the !mores at Stral.
fund, after their retreat from that place to Rugen,
feerris not to have proceeded from mittake, but is
merely the executims of an order equally weak and
tvicked. After the firft cannonade that was made
from Darnholm, which killed a woman, that from
Rugen commenced. Yelterday another heavy can-
nonade was heard from that fide, and a number of
brutes, poirted out by name, have been ruined. There
a-e all) Swedills gun boats lying before Straiten I;
but it teems thefe frantic hotlilities will not continue
long, as the troops upon the ;Rind of Rugen are pre-
paring to leave it, and embark for Sweden.
