The New amnion' bore yesterday 41 per Cent. preen. Very
large purchases were made by Dutch tioases.

We yesterday mentioned the arrival of the PRIN.
CESS Auousta frorn the Weser ; but, as we already
stated, nothing on the subject of the Campaign in the
North in an official or authentic shape has reached
us by this opportunity. Many rumours, however,
were in circulation in the British squadron, and
among the fishernien on the North coast of Holland,
which we have little doubt will ultimately prove to
have been correct. The blowing up of the Bridge,
of Lindens's, by the mistake, of the French Corporal,
as alluded to in the French papers, was represented
on the Continent •to have been followed by conse-
quences which almost annihilated the retreating army.
As it was, it is reported to have left 90,000 prisoners
in the hands of the Allies.
General BLUCHER'S affair at Kosen, on the 21st,
is also reported to have been of such a decisive cha-
racter, that it put lt in the power of the Allied Ar-
mies to separate, without endangering the success of
any future omatiods.
The. PRINCE ROYAL of Sweden is said to have ad-
vanced through Westphalia upon Holland, while
Prince SCHWARTEENBERG followed the retreating
French army on the Erfurt road. General Goes,
with the British expedition, recently at Stralsund, has I
advanced, and after crossing the Elbe he has occu-
pied Hanover, The whole of the French troops, and I
such of the Westiihalians as wereattiched to the
French party, at Cassel, have fled, and the capital is
once more occupiedby a Russian force.
The intelligence of an official character brought',
by the Princess Augusta, although it does not relate
to objects of equal magnitude with the above, is ne-
Vertheless cheering.
An expedition from Heligoland, consisting of se-
veral gun-beats, has made a successful attack upon
Bruck and Bremerlee, in co-operation with a small
Russian force. The French garrisons of these for-
tresses were surprised and made prisoners.

Captain FARQIMARt of the DESIREE, has proceeded
up the Weser and taken two French corvettes, and
two gun-boats. The,Ems and Weser may now be
considered as open to our commerce. Several mer-
chant vessels from these rivers and also from the
mouth of•the Elbe, had arrived at Heligoland for
cargoes. The last letters from Heligoland are dated
on the 6th instate.

It was reported yesterday upon 'Change, that the!
French Government had succeeded in negociating a
forced loan for twenty-five millions sterling, without
much difficulty; and that thenew Conscriptions were
Allingip
.4i:trance without any symptoms of dissa-
tisfaction. -. It. is extremely probable that Bow APARTE
may have succeeded in raising a considerable sum in
Lis present emergencies ; for his Marshals, Senators,
Generals, and in short all holding official situations
under his, execrable Government, are the richest in-
dividuals of any country in the world. The plunder
of the whole of Europe has been divided among
them, and, with but few exceptions, their property is
almost wholly personal, and of course immediately
convertible. It is quite natural that these dependents
should subscribe to the last farthing in support of a
war which now has for its object, to secure to them
and their families the means of future subsistence.

This is a system, however, which must sooner or
later have an end : the war, now that the Allies may
be said to have entered France, will be more expen-
sive to the Government of that country, than, at any
period since the Revolution. The maxim of making
" war support war," so often written in the blood of
unoffending nations, will now, in all probability, be
recorded in a similar manner on the territory from
which it issued.

By a vessel arrived at Plymouth from Passages,
the following letter has been received :
Passages, November 10.

i• The rainy weather has for some days prevented
onr army from making any movement of consequence.
' However, I have just received the intelligence, that

expected immediately."

sith the Earl of LIVERPOOL and Viscount CAME-
REAGII. His Royal Highness's horses were to have
left town yesterday, but were countermanded.

The latest advices from Calcutta, mention that
I.ord Mnrro, on hearing of the appointment of the
Earl of MOIRA to the ofhce of Governor General of
India, made the necessary preparations for his de-
parture for Europe. The HUSSAR frigate was or-
dered to be got .ready for his Lordship's reception,
and was expected to sail about the end of July.
