HAMBURGH MAIL.

Yellerday afternoon arrived the Mail due on Sun
day laft.
The Emperor of Germany has returned to his ca-
pital. The French in Hanover hare made a Con.
vention with the Pruflians for the neutrality of the
territory round Hameln. Nothing is mentioned re-
fpeding the return of the Britith troops; but it is laid
that the Ruffians are about to march home.

Letters from Cunaantinople fay that the Ruffian
force in the Seven Wands was to be kept up to the
number previoufly there before the late expedition.
Recent events, however, may probably alter this re
fulotion, as the troops landed in Naples mutt now
return.

By the packet which arrived Lord HARROW/BY and
Mr. HAMMOND reached England. Mr. HAMMOND
came to town yetleiday afternoon.
From the German Journals brought by this Mad,
and from Dutch papers to a late dare, we have above
given extrans of every thing worthy of DIICO.
following is him a private letter 7

. EttLIN, JANUARY 18.
id It is confidently Rated here, that among the 'At
nor objefts of ambition with the Emperor Napolc, I ,
it is his intention to make Lucien Bonaparte King oi
Spain; Jerome, King of Naples; Beauharnois, King t
Italy; Louis, King of Holland; and Murat, King
of Poland.

During his flay at Vienna, the Emperor Napo-
leon difcovered from the hooks of Friers, the banker,
in order to •
It was in confegnence of Bonaparte's exprefs de-
mand that Cobentzel was removed.
The rums in the hands of that banker, at the
farther difpofal of England, he appropriated to him-
fell, and on that account, he laid, lightened the bur-
thens impofed on that city.
" It is confidered certain that the Duke of Brunt.
wick will obtain the Electoral Dignity ; but it is un-
certain from what tetritory he will take his title.--
Some fay that he will retain that of Brunfwick Vol
fenbuttle; others think that he will make an exchange
with the King of Ptuffia of his own territory for Pa-
derborn and Hildelbeim, and call himfelf Elettor of
Weaphalia ; but moll think, and with the peace&
apparent probability, that he will obtain the Eleaoral
Dignity of Hanover.
‘4 The Duke of Brunfwick goes to Peterlburgb, to
communicate to that Court the neceffaryexplanations
refpeolling the policy which the King deems molt
conducivelo his own fecurity, and that of the whole
North of Europe. This miffion is expelled to draw
clofer than before Rutßa, Pruffla and Saxony. The .
Royal Dignity was offered to the Eledor of Saxony.
but declined."
