BULNOI AYIES —We have received fsveral well-written eom•
munications relative to the unfortunate int of our Expedition
to South America. But as it is now pretty generally under-
flood that the contludt of thole who had the fuperintendance of
our affairs in that quarter is to undergo a arid inveltigation
our Correfpoodents will, theinfelves, fee the propriety of our
retraining from aridurcs which might be liable to the imputa-

A molt important State Paper has this day been
publifhed. It is a Declaration from his BRITANNIC
MAJISTY, (listing the motives which have didated
his late meafures in the Baltic. His MAJErry "had
received the mon pofitive information of the deter-
mination of the prefent Ruler of France to occupy,
with a military force, the territory of Holftein—for
the pnrpofe of excluding Great Britoin from all her
accuftomed channels of communication with the
Continent ; of inducing or compering the Court of
Denmark to clofe the paffage of the Sound againft
the Britith commerce and navigation ; and of avail-
ing himfelf c,f the aid of the Dann Marine for the
invafion of Great Britain and of Ireland."
1
The Deelaration then Aim that 66 Already the
Army declined for the Invafion of Hoiftein was
afferobling on the violated territory of neutral Ham-
burgh. And, Holaein once occupied, the Mind of
Zealand was at the mercy of France, and the Navy
of Denmat k at her difpofal."
The Declaraticn, which is of confiderable length,
Rates in conclufion that
16 Notwithltanding the declaration of war on the
part of the Danifh Govern:nen, it (till remains for
Denmark to determine, whether war (hall conti-
nue between the two nations. His Msjelly
proffers an amicable arrangement. He is anxious
to Ihearhe the (word, which Ire has been mod rcluc
tantly compelled to draw. And he is ready to
dcrnonftratc to Denmark and to the world, that, hav-
ing acted folely upon the fcnfe of what was due to
the fccurity of his own dominions, he is not defirous,
from any other motive, or from any object of advan,
tage or aggrandifement, to can y meafures of lionility
beyond the limits of the neceffity which has produced
theirs."

Difpatches were yelterday received from Lord.
CAT H CART. A report was loon after circulated, but
we believe on no authority whatever, that the popu-
lace of Copenhagen had put feveral merchants to
death, fuppofed to havevbeen moR forward in urging
the Governor to capitulate.
We have been favoured with the following extrad
of a letter from Gottenburgh :
“ GOT TENBURGH, SUPT. 13.
"By a blefferger.which fails from hence to-day. I have availed
myftlf of writir g letters to England. The public difpatches will
have informed you of the re?ult of the expedition to Copenhagen,
which will, I truft,beattended with the happieft eonfequences ; it
will, at leaft, defeat the views'which BONA r MITE had formed, of
uniting the fleets of the Northern Powers againft us. Almady the
tone of the Emperor of Ruffia is lowered, and it is known hero,
that the intended invafion of Swedifis Finland is abandoned by
Ruffin. The King of Swings's fleet is to be at the difpufitiou of
Great Britain ; fo that all the hopes of BoNAPART a's maritime war
arc entirety at an end. 'Thus we ftand on very high ground, to
carry on the war, or treat fur peace, without a needfity of feed-
king either our honour or our integrity.
" A eircumftance has come to my knowledge on which I an
place the unnnit reliance--it is, that a moR linguist deception was
malted (by BONAPARTE OP TALLETRAND. Of both) OD the
Emperor of Russia, to refpoft to Turkey, which accelerated the
Treaty of Tilfit. That this deception is now pettedly known to
the Emperor and the Ruffian Cabinet, is certain ; and I believe by
the time this reaches your hands, it will be known to the Brit&
Government, and will molt probably have a couilderable influence
on the Emperor of Russia's future plans, which, joined to the
fuccds at Copenhagen, will perhaps caufc a renewal of koftiiitics
or lead to a general peace. This I tan Mire you, the profped of
a rupture between Great Britain and Rata has canted in that Em-
pire great dikontent. I taw a Gentleman of great fortune and in-
fluence from St. Peterfbuzigh a few days ago, who declared without
referee, that fhould the prefect Government of Rolla perfrrere in
breaking with England, the Throne itftlfwoolit toter to iti ccnvr
