In our Paper of Monday we Rated, ",bat sfcial
account: received from the Continent held out ffronz ground:
or &keying that the Attie: had found 'rem to alter their
pinion relPeaing the part which they had hem induced to &-
fires Prigga would ultimately take in the cane."
Various private letters by the Mail of yefterday
[peak nearly the fame language. They differ, in-
deed, in detailing the circumßances, but agree in
Rating the fame expefted refult. Some of them relate
on the authority of their correfpondence from Da-
lin, that the King of PrufGa, when called on for a
categorical anfwer as to the part he would take in
the war, had Paid, that his defire was to maintain a
aria neutrality ; but that not having fatisfied the
Empetor of Ruffle, he had declared that he mutt
confider Pruffia as an enemy, if he did not join the
Confederacy.
The writer of a letter from Tonning4, dated the
sgth ult. fan ,ISince laft night we have here a re-
port that Pruflla has taken poffeffion of Hanover, and
declared for Francs. We do not pledge ourfelves for
the truth of this Ratement, though the fource from
which the report comes is highly refpeftable."
Another private letter, dated the 24th ult. containsl
the following palrage
" It is raid that a Pruffian General has altually
been nominated to take the command in Hanover,
which is to be occupied by Prufllan troops, while the
French march to the Rhine. It has betides been ru-
moured here, that four PrufGan regiments have ac-
tually entered the Eleftorate ; but of this report there
is yet no confirmation. In the mean time the whole
of the Pruffian army is ordered to be put on the war
ellablifhment, from the tft of Oftober; and the troops
compofing the garrifon of Berlin hold themfelves in
readinefs to march by the 26th inftant.
44 Some reports Rate, that the Xing of Proojia hat
declared himley in favour of France, and put himfelf at
the head of iso,ooo men, who were ready to move
occafion may require ; in confequence of which,
Raffia is about to atm a declaration of war againa
Pru Ma."

Other accounts Rate, that the meafure of putting
the whole Pruffian force on the war eflabliffiment by
the tft of Oetober, refolved on at a Grand Council
of State held at Berlin, was fuppored to have arifen
from a demand on the part of Ruffle, of a free pat:
rage for her troops through the Pruffian territories
—an application, which, it is underftood, was pe-
remptorily rejeeled by Pruflia, as trenching upon
that fired fyftem of neutrality the was determined to
maintain ; and that in confequence, it was believed,
Prutlia would take part with France in the approach-
ing itrpggle. .

Such are the rumours that have been circulated,
and the grounds on which they reft. The general
opinion teems to bc, that nothing can be inferred from
any of the cireumnancest refpeCting the line of eon-
duet likely to be purfued by the Pruifian Monarch ;
but we are not without our fears that the Court pf
Berlin means to profit by the prefcnt rupture, at the
expellee of the other powerr. A tit* time will pro-

bably clear up tome points neceffary to be known,
before a correct opinion can be forme d of Ptuffun
politics.
The Stocks (offered a depreffinn yellerctty, owing,
as Tome think, to the letters refpefling Pr.ifli4 ; but,
it is poffible this might be partly owing to the new
