COUNT WITTGENSTEIN'S PROCLAMATION TO THE
GERbtANs.
(From the St. Petersburgh Paper of the 19th of March.)

' " Dear German Youth and Men! Who do not 1
number yourselves among the subjects of his Ma-
jesty
the King of Prussia, have you not heard or read
how the gallant Prussians have behaved themselves? 1
how they flock hither from all sides ? many thousands i
volunteers of all conditions, because that, in thes.:
bad times, there can be but one condition consistent r
with honour, that of liberty!
" How will you feel, people of all parts of Ger-
many,when you hear and read this ? you wbo must '
still bow to the insolent yoke of the insolent stran-
gers. Do not your hearts beat high, and do ye not
wish to partake in the liberation of your native coun-
try,
and in the vengeance due for so many years suf-
ferings ? For where is the corner of Germany that

The Gottenhurgh Mail of yesterday, while it ari-
:loomed the safe arrival of the homeward•bound Bal-
tic convoy, brought the unpleasant intelligence of the
Panes having fired upon our fleet in passing the bat-
teries at Elsineur. If they had confined themselves

to this act of aggression, wanton as it certainly must
be considered, they might have been excused from
the circumstance of their being still masters of the
Sound, and, thetefore, entitled to demand the usual
tribute. But their hostilities did not stop here, for
their gun-boats made several attempts at capture'
which were frustrated only by the prowess and dex-
terity. of the convoying squadron. If Denmark be
still a prey to the vacillating policy of the dotard,

who has been too long permitted to direct 'her hosti-
lities against her best and safest friends, it is time that
England, and Sweden and Russia should assume an
authoritative attitude, and strip the viper of his sting.
—lt is, indeed, a most childish and antiquated policy
to make war is sokration—we mean precisely such a
war as has been waged against Denmark. It may
be' true, that, like other Powers, she has been seduced
by the specious pretexts of France ; but she ought to
be instructed, by the thunder of British vengeance,
that it is contamination to come even within grasp of
the Tyrant, and that nothing can ensure her existence
as an independent State, but a speedy and unreserved
repentance. As to her cause of irritation against
England, the very aspect of affairs at this moment
ought to convince her Statesmen, as it must do every
enlightened mind, that the seizure of her Fleet was
one of the links in the great chain of events which
have finally overwhelmed the French Ruler with
ruin and disgrace. In short, if this malignant spirit

of resv.ntment be again displayed, we trust that we
shall see Zealand occupied by foreign troops, and
declared the fief of another Sovereign.

The following are the circumstances which at-
tended the unpleasant business to which we have

just alluded :

" k hid been understood in Sweden. that Matters were so far
seconunodated between Great Britain and Denmark, that British

6hippills would be allowed to pass the Sound unntoltate4; and it
has been stated to us, that single vessels had sailed clfise under
the Daui:h batteries without interruption. However, it was.no.
!teed, that upon the approach of the homeward-bound convoy,
the Danes were all of a sadden on the alert, preparing their gun*
at Cumbers Castle, and stationing their gun-boats in such a man-
ner as could only indicate au hostile intention.
!' It was consequently deemed expedient by the British Admi-
✓al to wait until a strong beers, should spring up, so that in case
the Danes should fire, the chance of injury would be so much the
less. It was several days Weis the ships obtained such a wind
as they wanted ;but a breeze springing up on the 6th instant, the
'thole Sett pushed forward. As they had apprehended, they no
sooner got abreast of Cmnberg Castle than the firing began both
#rost the Castle and the gun-boats, which lasted for three hours
and a half.

" The gun-boats made several attempts to capture the vessels
which dropt astern ; but the convoying bhips always coming to
their relief, the enemy were unable to carry off a single prize.
One Russian ship alone was ran oa shore, but that being on the
blondish side of the coast, she will probably be got off. Several
merchantmen received a trifling damage from the fire of the
guns; and the Vigo herself, thellag•ship, was struck, but with-
out killing or wounding a single individual a board. The
Swedes bad laid down many buoys, and stationed small craft on
their coast, as a guide to our shipping, but one night previous to
the 6th, the Danes bad the audacity to cut them all adrift."

We are unable to confirm from official sources the
intelligence of Austria having taken the field against
France, but the report still continues to swim down
the tide of probabilities. The resturation of Trieste,
Fiume, the Tyrol, and other ancient possessions, to
the House of Austria, are the boons which Russia
and her allies are said to have held out; and we trust
they are too tempting to be rejected. But the Em-
peror of Ausrau► has other and stronger claims upon
his honour—the Germans are every where in arms
to pull down that monstrous tyranny which deprived
him of the dignity of Chief of the Empire. Among
the 'Germans he is still regarded as the Emperor of
Germany and the Electoral Chief of the Roman
Empire. If they shake off the yoke under which
they have so long groaned, the States of Germany
must revert to the farms at least of their old consti-
tutions. The high-minded heroes who have fought
and bled with WITTGENSTEIN, will not surely accept
of a drivelling slave for their Chief, who crouches
and trembles at the name of NAPOLEON. Let FRANCIS
r!:init of this—let him follow up the proclamations to
the Germans, by declaring himself once more their
Emperor ; or let him hire himself as Nurse to the
King of Roma for the rest of his life. There are
ethers of his House who will be proud of the revival
cf these ancient honours.

Letters from Berlin attribute the recal of Orro
from Vienna, to his not having kept a good look out
when Lord WALPOLIC arrived there ; who, it is said,
was ten days in the Austrian capital before the
French Ambassador was apprized of the fact.

- - _
By a ship from Santander, advices have been re-
ceived from Biscay to the Ist inst. The French had
not made their appearance in the neighbourhood of
that port, but they still continued-in the unmolested
possession of Bilboa and the contiguous territory.
