The Growl Duke Conflantine, accompanied by
the Prince Inienbourg and Colonel Alenwieff, has
been received here with great diffinetion. Prince
Dolgorucki, chief aiele-de.camp to the Emperor, who
arrived here 34 hours before his Imperial Highnefs,
has made, in she name of his Sovereign, important
declarations and repreleotations. It is Rated that the
Ruffian divifions, under the orders of Generals Elko
and Benningfen, will remain in Silefia until further
orders. We exiled foun the return of Count de
Haugwitz.
His Imperial Highnefs the Grand Duke Confian•

BERLIN, DEC. s4.—PRIVATE LETTER.
. As we have received no intelligence from Count
Haugwitz fince the loth December, General Pfuhl
has been fent to the head quarters of the French, in
• order to urge the Emperor Napoleon to a precife ex-
planation. On this will it depend whether we (hall
bare war or peace. If the war between England and
France continue., and Napoleon abandons any pro-
jeftioof innovation, endeavours will be made to pre-
ferve the neutrality of the North of Germany. It
was believed that, in this cafe, the King was deter-
mined that the French (hould remain in poffeffion of
liatneln; but I believe it is nothing but a report ;
and they will be obliged to evacuate Hamelnos well
.as the reft of Hanover. In the nsgociations retpec.
sing the neutrality of the North of Germany, the
departure of the French from Hanover will be in.
lifted upon ; but, on the other hand, a guarantee
will be given, that no foreign troops (hall be allow.
ed to penetrate into the territory ofihe Batavian Re-
public on that fide.
The hopes of peace do not teem altogether on.
founded.- It is believed even that England herfeif is,
inclined to negotiate for peace under the Pruffian
mediation ; and fornething to that dice, in order to
lead to a negotiation, has, it is Paid, been thrown
out. In the negotiations for an armiftice, Napo-
leon, it is reported, began to (peak of Hanover ; and
from this, it is concluded, that it will form one of
the principal objets of difficulty. He teemed to en-
tertain the projeft of giving that Eleaorate to Prof-
. fia, as an indemnification for the Franconian Mar.
graviates, which he means to give to Bavaria, in or-
der to diminifh the soles of the Houfe of Auliria.
He farther propofed to exchange Gallicia for Si-
lefia. When thefe purpofed arrangements were men-
tioned to the Emperor of Raffia, he ab(olutely refut-
ed to liftcn to them, or give his content to them, and
as little, is it thought, will they meet the concurrence
of the King of Pruffias
Napoleon more than once defired to have an tester -
view with Alexander, hut the latter always rejeßed
: the propofal with great hauteur. At lift Prince
Dolgotticky was fent to the French head quarters.
, Whit, Paid Napoleon, does the Emperor of Ruffia
..reqoire of me ? Does he mean to tell me that I muff
• defcend from my throne ? Are the Batavians and
Swifs not frte ?'Does he WA to have a part of Mol.
'.davist and 'Wallachia ? Nothing of all that, replied
...Prince Dolgorucky. The Emperor defires nothing
• . but a general peace, the re•ellablifilmem of order,
itod,for all, fecurity for their dominions. The Ern.
.. • peror Alexander never will leek an enlargement of
territory at the erpence of his fliends and allies.
When Bonaparte and Francis 11. had their con-
• Terence, the latter wit. obliged to pats a loicige, on
•• which the Mud was very deep. Napoleon was at.
• tentive enough to caufe it to be covered with Rraw.
Some of the attendants of sha Emperor Ttimcis re-
, marked, that Napoleon had not made him a bridge
of ouzo for his retreat.—( Here follows an inveltive
on the Empetor Francis, which we find is now ufual
in the private letters from Berlin.)
It is certain that the Grand Duke Conflantine has
• offered to the King of Piuffia the corps of General
Benningfen, Ellen and Buxhoerden # and this will
he extremely important for the fafety of the North of
Gerinany. " lam no politician (laid the Grand
Duke), but I am a foldier, and will cheerfully fight
under the command of your Majefty."
The Aufirians throw the blame of the lots of the
battle of Aufierlitz on the Ruffians. General Ku-
leffieim here likewife does the fame; but Prince Con
1./amine has promi'ed, that in the pretence of the
Pruffian Minifler he will (hew him his error. But
to whom null we afclibe the blame of the defeats
which the AuflriAns received before the Ruffians ar-
tired ? It is impoffihle to jollity the Aufirians.
k According to rep,,rts apparently deferring of cre-
-I,dit, Schimmelpenninck, on pretence of being tit.ent 1
ened with blinduefs, will refign his dignity ; and
Louis Bonaparte will have his place.
The French Minifter here ventures to aftett, that 1
by the IR of January the French Hill again be in
.omplete poffelEon of Hanover.
