EXPEDITION TO THE BALTIC.

Intelligence has at length been received of Admi-
ral GAMBIER'S operations. The Auckland packet,
from Gottenburgh, arrived yeflerday in the neigh-
bourhood of Harwich. In her paffage thither, fhe
!poke an Englifh merchant veffel that left the Sound
on the 12th inflant, being ordered away by Ad-
miral GAMBIER/ as he meant to make an attack on
the Dana batteries the next day : they afterwards
fell in with a Swedifh veffel, who informed them that
the attack commented on the 13th, (the day he left
the Sound) and that two Englifh frigates had
taken poffeffion of a Danifh frigate which lay in the
Cattegat, as a guard (hip.
There, without being able to afcertain their credi-
bility, are the reports at prefent in general circula-
tion. The following letter, which brings the opera-
tions of Admiral GAMBIER. down to a later date, is
from a Gentleman at Harwich, who does uh the
favour of his occafional Correfpondence :

" HARWICH, AUGUST 26:

" By a Gentleman j nit landed on the coati below
g this place, from the Auckland, we learn that an
46 action was fought on Friday, the I 4th inft. between
46 the Englifh and the Danes off Copenhagen; the
" refult of which we have not been able to afcertain."

Whatever may have been the event of this battle,
no doubt can be entertained that hoflilities have com•
menced with Denmark, and that we are now adually
at war with that country.
Orders have been fent to Sheernefs to flop all Da-
pith veffels. The PureeEa :gun brig, Lieutenant
SMELL, failed from the Nore to bring in any Chips
the could meet with, under Danifh colours.
Similar orders mull have been fent to all the lea-
ports in Great Britain and Ireland, as our Readers
will find from our Port letters of this morning, that
feveral Danifh veffels have been already brought into
Our ports.

By the above Packet we received a Gottenburgh
Mail. The late( intelligence from Stralfund is con-
tained in the following
