liamburgh papers to the Bth init. have arrived.
They contain the Ruffian accounts of the aftions that
were fought between their fleet and that of the
Turks. They are confufed and verbofe—and the
aelions feem to have been lefs decifive in their refult,
than former accounts led us to believe.

Thefe papers contain letters from BrutTels and
Dunkirk, announcing the renewal of preparations
along the French coaft for the invafion of this coon-
uy. We are not of the number that laugh at every
threat of the enemy, and therefore cannot but recom-
mati an early adoption of vigorous meafures for re-
fitting any attempt the enemy may make. The dill
alters that have befallen the Continent, fince the laff
threat of invafion, will, we have no doubt, infure to
our firietures on this fubjeil, a greater (hare of at-
tention than many were then inclined to believe
they merited. Had our fuggeflion been ailed
upon, Britain would at this moment have been all
AIMED NATION, and in an attitude to contemn not
only the threats of France, but the united efforts
of the world to defiroy our country. To this fubjeit
we have devoted another column of this day's STA'.
The fafety of our common country ought to be, and
with every true patriot will be, the firft object of
folicitude. Thofe who cannot fee the danger to
which we are eroded, are infatuated; and, thonid
fuch be the prevailing difpofition, our cafe is paft.all
remedy. -
Some letters from DantzTc and Koningfberg
reached town yefterday. They mention that the
French troops bad quitted the neighbourhood of
-tbefe cities, the contributions having been either dif-
charged, orfatisfaitory fecurity for the payment given.
Prullia, however, is not yet releafed from their vifi-
tarion. They have only changed quarters, and re-
moved to Elbing, where, it would appear, they mean
to enablifh thernfelves for the winter. All the public
buildings and warehoufes in that city are converting
into barracks for their reception ; and there, it is fup
pored, they will remain, menacing the Baltic, and
controuling Prullia, until tome new changes in the
political afpeit of the Continent take place.

Accounts, we underhand, have been received from
Heligoland, that the French of Friedhurg, and
other places, have put every boat and fithing vele!
in requifition, for the purpofe of conveying troops to
Zealand. M. de LINDHOLM, Aid-de-Camp to the
CROWN PRINCE, who was fent to Paris on a fpecial
*million, had returned to Holflein. It was rumoured
At Harcburgh and Altona, that Swedith Pomerania
was to be given to Denmark.
An Engin vellel arrived in the River on Tuefday
froin Riga, the Captain of which Elates, that, at the
time of his departure from that port, which was about
three *seeks ago, 19 more vefTels were on the point Of
failing, fully laden ; and adds, that, at the time he
no apprehenfion of an embargo in the Ruffian
poris was entertained at Riga.—A veffel arrived in
the ftii.er from Mems!, which place fhe left on the
loth inft: report's to tie fame died.
