Almost all the private letters received by the Got-
tenburgh Mail of Saturday concur is describing the
aspect of affairs in the North of Europe as affording
the most cheering prospects for the future success of
the Allied Armies, or rather of the enslaved nations
of Germany, against their oppressors. In the begin-
ning of June Dantzick suffered most severely from a
tremendous bombardment of a combined British and
Russian flotilla. Ten thousand of the Prussian land-
wehr had also joined the besieging army, and a most
vigorous prosecution of the siege on the land side was
expected to take place immediately. The armistice
was not known at Dantzick on the Bth, nor indeed
was it likely to be promulgated there before the 15th,
from the distance to head-quarters.
Numerous reinforcements daily passed through
Konigsberg for the Russian Army. Throughout
East Prussia almost every male inhabitant had joined
the Landsturm or levy en masse. The new levies have
no uniform, but each wears a cap with a cross in
front, and the inscription—Mit GOTT, fur Ai:nig and
Vaterland—•" With GOD'S help I shall tight for my
King and Country."
The lettets from St. Petersburgh state, that the
rate of exchange was at 16:, and that it continued to
rise—a circumstance which speaks forcibly for the
confidence whiCh the nation reposes in the valour of
the armies and the firmness of the Emperor. —.The
date of the letters from St. Petersburgh (the 6th inst.)
precludes all idea that the Armistice was known
there, or that any expectations of peace occasioned
this favourable state of exchange. Politicians are
not wanting however in this country, who insinuate
that the game is up with the Allied Armies, and
that the *overeigns of Russia and Prussia are
eagerly employed in /latching up a conriner.tal peace.
—Let these gloomy and desponding gentlemen look
at Sir C. STEWART'S dispatches in the Gazette of Sa-
turday, before they sport with the feelings of their
better disposed neighbours. Every thing, on the
contrary,' induces us to look for a recommencement
of hostilities on the most favourable terms for the
Allies, if the demands of France are dictated in that
haughty and turbulent spirit which has always cha-
racterized the diplomacy-of her Ruler.
With the Crown Prince of SWEDEY, and the Rus-
sian heroes, WORONZOFF, WALMODEN, CZERNICIIEFF,
and TETTENBORN, on the Elbe, in his rear, in addi-
tion to the numerous German imitators of Salm., we
apprehend that the Allies have a better right to dic-
tate the terms of Peace than their enemy. Of the
dispositions of Austria we are still uncertain, but
circumstances incline us to think that a continuance
of her neutrality at least may be fairly calculated
upon. The Austrian paper money has lately under-
gone a wonderful improvement in point of value.
Are we to ascribe this financial symptom to her
ftiendship with France or with England ?

It is said with.great confidence on 'Change, that
Government have recalled Sir JOHN BMA KAM from
the American station, sending in his place Lord
Kerrn.—The second trip of Commodore Ronomts,
together with the permission which Sir JOHN gave to
the American Negotiators to sad for Russia, are as-
signed as the cause for his recall.

her dependencies.

vous at Maranham, and from thence to proceed to
the West Indies, to come with the regular convoys

The President, Commodore RODOIRS, was cruizing
off the Western Isles about the 12th inst. when she
captured the Duke of Montrose outward-bound packet
for Halifax. The President, it is said, carries 57 guns,
and is manned by 480 picked seamen. She parted
company with the Congress frigate on the sth inst.
