Accounts have been received by Government of
the capture of the CRArry ichoonct by the enemy.in
the Mediterianean, with important difpatches on
board. This circumftanee accounts fufficiently for
the non•arrival of the Official details refpetling the
palling of the Dardanelle* by our Het under Admi-
rals Ductcwoutru, Louts, and Sir Simi tot SMITH.
The following letter from an Oil'.c‘n- belonging to his
Majetly's (hip OCEAN contains f, me important intel-
ligence frcm the Mediterranean :
Off Cadiz, March 3t.

" f am lorry to fay, we hate been full of misfortune here—Left
night we received the melancholy account of the deftrudion of the
Alex, by fire—the was burnt, and a conilderable part of her crew
were vidtirns to the flames. The Nautilus (loop is alfo loft, the
was wrecked on a barren rock, and many of the crew were Itarved
to death. The furvivors were, for the moft part, on board the
Ajax at the time of her misfortune, and thus ended their miferics
and their lives. The Captain of the Ajlx is faval, but the late
commander of the Nautilus is loft.
" It is with forrow I add, that the Crafty fchooner, with dif-
patches of the greateft moment and national cnnfequence, has alto
been captured by the enemy, and nothing c:tn now fo elfedually
difpel our difappoioted hopes, but a rencontre with the French-
men, who arc the caufe of all our anxieties.

" Sir Joust DUCKWORTH has paid d the Dardanelles, and it Is
fuppofed that by this time he has got potilllion of the Tut-kith
Fleet. The Turks fired at our Mips in p:ffiuz the narrow ftreights,
but our chips did not deign to return a finSk
" Seven thoufand of our troops went up with the fquadron, and
are to be joined by a body of ten thouritml Ruffians fuurt Corfu.
Thus you may eafdy guefs how the Turks arc fituatcd, ofd to
fo formidable an a force.

" Captain HALLOW ELL, of the Tigre, has failed X° from Sicily,
with Soon troops, for the Levant, under t I c command of Colonel
FRASZR ; it is fuppofeti they arc to take poffalion of Alexand, la."
Government, it is laid, received authentic advice
yefterday, by way of Hamburgh, that Eleven Tu,
Ship of the line had been burnt in the Dardanelles;, by
the boats of the Britifh equadron; and that Admiral Sir
T. DUCKWOATH immediately upon this event fent a
flag on (bore, demanding the (urrender of the Forts
to the Ruffians, and of the Dardanelles to the Eng•
lifh, threatening to bombard Conllantinople, and
reduce it to Abell, in cafe of refufal, giving only two
hours for the definitive anfwer of the Divas. The
Capitulation and propofals for Peace immediately
followed. This intelligence was brought by a Mer-
chant veffel from Smyrna, which arrived at Triefte
in eleven days. The French Minifter at that placere•
ceived fimilar information through the fame channel.

On the 28th ult. the COMUS, Captain SHIPLEY,
arrived at Gibraltar with two Spanifh prizes, which
fhe cut out of one of the Canary Iflands.

DENMARK MAILS.

Laft night two Mails arrived from Hufum, by
which Hamburgh and Altona papers to thead ina.
have been received.

The letters from Vienna repeat the intelligence
already received of our fleet under Admiral Duca
WORTH having patted the Dardanelles. The report
was current that peace had been re-eftablifhed be-
tween Ruffiaand the Porte; and the fadt, we think,
cannot be doubted.
Nothing of importance had taken place between the
armies in Poland, but an adlion was daily expected.
A private letter of the 3111 ult. from Altona rays,
" Accounts received from the head.glarters of the
refpeeive armies reprefent the exertions making on
huh fides for freffi operations, as immenfe. By the
12th inflant the Ruffians were to be reinforced by'near
to,ooo mtn, confifting of all the Emperor's guards,
113,000 Coffacks and Calmucks, and the regiments
which remained in Livonia, Courland, &c. Prince
BAGRATHION has returned to the army, the prnpcfltion
of NAPOLEON for the negociations with which he had
been fent to St. Peterfburgh having been found inad-
miffible. M. de NOVOZILZOFF, who had been dif:
patched to the Pruffian Court at Memel, with the
anfwer of the Emperor, is faid to have been charged
to inform the French agent, that when their arm:.:s
fhould have evacuated Germany, the propnfals of
the Emperor NAPOLEON would be liftened to."

VIENNA, MARCH 18.

An Englifh courier, who arrived here hit night, brought the
intelligence that after the arrival of Achriral Duckworth in the
Archipelago, the Englilh fleet paired the Dardanelles, and ap-
peared before Conftantinople, which it threatened with a bom-
bardment, unlefa tbe Porte renewed its alliance with England...—
The Turkifla fleet, to the number of ten fail, was provifionally
taken poillffion of by the Englith.
According to this intelligence, the inhabitants of Conftantinc-
pie are decidedly in favour of the Eng Hilt.
According to the fat& intelligence from Conilantinople, nego-
tiations ftill continue between M. Arbuthnot and the Captain
Pasha. It is Paid that the Ruffians have made very favourable
propofals of peace to the Porte ; amma others, provided the
Porte renewed its ancient treaties with Ituffia, the latter engages
to guarantee all the Turkilb poffeffions in Europe, Afta, and
Africa; but the Ruffians will retain pofftffion of Moldavia and
Wallachia, until the concluflon of peace, and the Porte is to main-
tain a contingent proportioned to its forces, during the war, to be
at the difpcial of Ruffia.
Intelligence from Widdin informs us that the Ruffians have
affembled a Iconfiderable corps of troops, and threatened to pars
the Danube. 1
They write from Italy tlmt the Paeha of Janina, with a corps
of 6000 men, has formed a juritft,ipta with General Laurifton, for
the purpofe of attacking the Ruffians at Cattaro.
The corps of Gen. Bellegarie, which had remained nine months
In the itagufan territory, on account of the furrender of Cattazo,
has now returned to Triefte, and will go to Carinthia to be coto•
pitted.

The rent of negociations carrying on in I!att NOD* continua,
acquires greater credit.

Notwitkeanding all that has been reported in foreign coin:ries
of the military movements In the Außrian States, every thing
here has the met pacific appearance. The recruiting now carry.
ing on fur the completion of the regiments, is by no means fo
confiderable as has been reported.
Fbe Englifh have taken feveral !hips laden with corn for Con.
ftantinople, but without declaring them legal prises.
The recruiting for the Ruffian army, in the provinces of Mot.
davia and Weilachia, has great (needs among the Greeks. Th•
prifition of General klichaon is Rill the fame; lant Lieutenant.
tleneral Von Mayendurf, who befieges !Entail, and occupies with
his army the mouths of the Danube, made on the 24th of Fe.
bruary, a third unfueceliful attempt to carry that fortrefs by alLule.
The attack failed from his n v having a fufficienrquantity of ar-
tillery, and he was obliged to retire to Faltfcbi, to facilitate his
receiving reinforcements of troops and artillery. The Beffaraba.
rian Tartars are likewife in motion, and it is feared may cetend
their ravages over the Froth, and to jiffy, which is at prefeut
I very infufficiently gerrifuncd.

ANCONA, MARCH to:

Some Chips arrivrd here which left Confiantinople Ihe i.th Fe.
bruary, bring advice that all the Ruffian merchant lips there 2114
in all the Turkith harbours, have been fei zed, and two RuEsa
frigates carrying troops to Corfu, (topped at the Dardanelles.
BANKS OF THE EI.BE, MARCH 21.

The intelligence announced by a letter from Berlin, and infected
in the Journal de Paris, which menti ns an armiftice propofed bi
Ruffia, is the more improbable, as neither the Moniteur, the 011.
cial Reports, or the Berlin Gazette makes any mention of it.

APRII. t.—We have abut:a daily reports of battles, but it feel%
certain that nothing of importance has taken place fine the tdt►
ult. A report was circulated with confidence that a great 'Mary
had been lately obtained by Maircna over the left wing of tite
Ruffian army ; but four days having tranfpired finee this was firft
rumoured, without any c.rt.fit niatiun having arrived, it is now ea.
tit:ly di:credited.

BERLIN. MARCH 14.
In the eourfe of laft week Count Schulenberg, Prufftm Nolan.
of State. arrivcd here from Dantec.

Our Gazate of e.is day contains the following article from Vi
enna :—" It is ecruin ti at our Cou c is zealouffy endea►ouring to
mediate a general peace; nay, it is fald that the preliminary
rangerneuts propofed by our Cabinet, which at this critical period
has adtcd with the greateft wifdo a, have met with confidershle
fuccefs through the able manner in which General Vincent con-
duels this important negociation. Should fome alterations in the
frontiers of the Anthill:l dominions be indifpenfibly nectifary tot
the foundation of a folid peace, cur Monarch will not hcfitate
without demanding any important advantages, to make that feed-
lice to the tranquillity and wafare of Europe.—Aliona Mercrryt
March 30.

COPENHAGEN, MARCH 28,

The following advice' have been received from Koninglberg,
dated the teth Inftant—Lieutenant General Mannftein being 111,
the King has appointed General Kalkrenth to be commandant of
Dantzick. On the 7th of March the Ruffian head-quarters were
removed to Bartenftein. General TAU), now has his head.
quarters at Heil(burgh. General Leftocq has his at Peterfwald
and General Dierik at Ficiligenheil. Gutftadt, Wormditt :and
Braunfberg, are now occupied by the enemy, who in general
remain quiet, if we except a few fkirtniffies, and occafiona
change of cantonments. The Ruffian army is likewifc quiet with
refped to external attack, but the greateft activity prevails with re.
gird to internal p reparations ..—HassbatrA4 Cop 'Nolen', April I.

On Monday,-the Right Hon. Rosser Purr Du
was re eleeted Member of Parliament for the County
of Edinburgh.

The route which we mentioned a few days ago,
having been received by the sd Battalion of the t4th
Foot, to march from Newport Pagnell, has been
countermanded, and they are to remain at that place
until further orders.

The PRINCESS ROYAL, of 98 guns, has been paid
off at Chatham, preparatory to being taken into
