The Dutch and llamburgh Papers received this
morning, still continue to give details of the late bois-
terous weather. Ftederickstadt, in Norway, suffered
very much by the storm a the 19th of November.
A great quantity of goods was spoiled, by the water
penetrating into the warehouses.
According to accounts from St. Petersburgh, a most
dreadful hurricane did great damage in the forests in
almost all the Provinces on the Baltic, on the 19th of
November, when the Neva inundated that capital. The
Emperor of RUSSIA has granted 16,000 rubles to the
inhabitants of Orartienbaurn, and 25,000 to those of
Cronstadt, who suffered most severely by the inundation.
The Neva was frozen over in the night of thel7th ult.
the thermometer of Reaumur being )odeg.below o.Since
that time the communisations with Cronstadt, which
had been interrupted, is restored. The frost continued
on the 22d ult. but the cold was not severe, being only
six or eight degrees, and the winter communications
with the interior had begun.
On the 28th of October, three severe shocks of an
earthquake were felt at Dabessar, in the Crimea; and
on the Ist of November there was a Cu: ious hurricane,
but ti,e autumn had been very mild.

Brussels Papers to the Bth inst. reached as at a late
hour this forenoon. They contain an ai tide from Tran-
sylvarnia stating, that in consequence of the vexatious
measures of the Turkish Divan, the inhabitants of
Macedonia are abandoning their homes and emigrating
to Livadia and the Morea ; indeed symptoms of insur-
rection have also appeared in Servia.
An article from Basle says—" We have positive ist-
format:on that all the Officers of the Swiss Regiment
of Reas, presented to the French General commanding
at Bayonne, a protest against the sending of their troops
to Spain."

The French Papers of Friday and Saturday reached

us last night; and this forenoon we received the Doile

of yesterday, by express. The latter quotes an article
• from the Journal des Debuts, on the subject of the law
for reducing the Five per Cents. tl which it is decidedly
opposed. It contains a project of law fcr suppressing
piracy. _

ha additional article of the treaty for the occupation
of Spain by the French troops, contained in our Paper
of Saturday, ii published by the Constitutiotind ; the
following is a copy

44 His Most Christian Majesty, according to the wishes
of his august Ally, the King our Sovereign, and always
disposed to do everything that may contribute to ensure
the tranquillity of Spain, has ordered that, independently
of the 22,000 mentioned in the first article of the re-
am Convention, and of the Swiss Brigade mentioned in
the thirdarticle, there shall be other French troops, to form
the garrison of Cori unna, Santona, Saragoisa, Carlona,
and Hostalrich, placing also a brigade, with some squa-
drons and some corps of :sante+ y en echelons, between
Vittoria and Irun.

This considerable addition to the French troops in
Spain will fo; m an arm yofSo,ooo or 40,000 men. France
yt ill require no greater indemnity than that which it
is ay claim fur the '22,000 men only.
