BRUSSELS, JULY r.o.

The Duke of Wellington, when he rets,rned to the
chateau of St. Marie, found there whole family;
his son the Marquis of Douro arrived there a few days
ago. On the 27th the Duke dispatched several
couriers to London and Vienna. This active corres-
pondence serves to prove that important subjects are
under negotiation, ar.d that the Duke may be con-
sidered as the centre of these negotiations.

The Crown Prince of Prussia arrived on the 25h
at Luxemburg, where he was received with all the
honour due to his rank. In a few days his Royal
Highness was to go to Cologne and Aix-le-Chapelle.
His Majesty the King of Prussia is expected there ;n
the middle of August, on his way to Fiance.
Ail the accounts from the French frontiers agree
that the state of those provinces is greatly improted.
Corn continues to fall at the principal markers, ar.i
the crops promise to be uncommonly productive.
Preparations are already making for the graud re-
views which arc to take place in the course of a
month, the King of Prussia being expected at Sedan
on the ISth. The accounts last received from Paris
give a favourable prospect respecting the farther re-
duction of the Allied Army.
A letter, written by a person whine authority is to
be depended on, says, that it is considered as certan
that the powers have agreed on this point, and that
the reduction may probably take place in the morals
of September.

FRANKFORT, JULY v 4.
Since Easter the German Diet has decided sisteett
affairs of General interest, and 300 private applica-
tions. The purchasers of the domains in Westphalia,
who had applied to the I)ict, ate all referred, without
exception, to the Hle►sian Tribunals. It is said that
the Austrian Minister concluded the Session by a
very excellent speech.

PARMA, JULY 12.
The harvest is already over in our Duchies. Never
have the banks of the Po afforded such a rich crop
of earn. Our river has made this country the Del..
of Italy.—We shall have a most extraordinary crap
of maize. By the care of the Government, the c
tivation of this species of corn has been rendered T.-/
general.
' The strictest measures are taken againFt the
gars and vagabonds. The National Guard wods
out patroles in the night to take gipsies who rove
about, and greatly contribute to spread the infectious
disorder. In Arany places orders have been given us
pull down the lonely and ruined buildings which
served for their retreats.
AMSTERDAM, JULY 80.
• Their Royal Highnesses the Princesses Dowagers
of Orange and Brunswick honoured this city with a
visit.

Among other English travellers, Lord Hollind
visited this city a few days ago, and viewed the Roy's
Museum al:d utlitr vstablishments.

INDIA.

The Madras arvitir of the 15:11 of Mardi contains
the following account of the preparations for the re-
duction
of Hattrass, the reduction of which we stated
•
yesterday. The Chief of the fort is called in the
Madras Gaitene Mt.' Ram :—ct The object of the
milit .ry preparations in the Upper Provinces is now •
known to be the reduction of the frnt and town of
llamas, situate on the road from Agra to Coel, and
about 20 miles south-cast of the latter place. The
.Zemindar or proprietor of that fort is ity cast a .I'hat,
olthe name of Dya Ram. who, poseaing this small
niicpen den territory in tie heart of thepoab, has
- from time to time maniteved a liitiighty and offensiie
• disposition towards the British Goveriiiiitnt, often ob.
' • strerting the course of juAice by giving refuge to rob.
hers and assas,.rs !who had fled from the Company's
district,, and refusing to permit the salutary operation
of oar pike r.gulatioi•s, in the eualter subject to his
ccatroul. Well twa'e (if tl'e evil conseqiiences of such
conduct, an,: convinced that at no distant petiod be!.
would be brought to account her hi.. =Weeds, he
has, for some time, made Hattrass the resort of all
meat of bold and Ab .steionesi charas.ier, with the view
of sto•n:lthening his means of dt:(ence, or of becomqig
formidable to his neighbours. The tot!, though not •
very extensive, is now supposed to be garrisoned by
10 or 12,000 resolute and adventurcus al en The
J'lLit. are known to he formed of the most stubborn
and nnyieldim materials, and it is pro'oafate that
3bakont Itltt Raw, wishing to terminate his caret:
a brilliant expl•it, li,prs, alter a deti.rtnitied oppo-
siti,n, to effect his escape in the night. This plan has
been usually Ad pied to preserve tumour and a fair
reputaoon for valour, and it has usually succeeded.
But the f.:: t is intended to be c:.mpietely invested,

. . _
and &hit r.nti...ieus squadrons i.t horse will render
flight inmorsi. It is said that the Rajah of Bliut t-
pore had interested himself in getting the permission
of Government tot a k.l/ aimed men to pa.s through
the Agra district, for the purpose of bringing away
28 covered hackeries from liattzass, but this report is
incredible, considering th.! circumstances of the case.
The greater part et the force, alt...r a 1011 g night-
march, ..rived beloic Ilattr tz,s ::bout 'J G'cloo: on die
morning of the 12th, when the fort was immediately
invested. The walls were leteld to be Jared with armed
men, and some troop, were eitca;:pcd on.riit- glaciw.
Oar Officers had reconnoitred the placc., which is very
strung, but it is supposed from various circumstances
that Dya Ram wilrfeel the uselesstess of re.istance,
and accede to the terms dicra:ed by Goverometit.—
The admirable secrecy and dispatch well which our
force was assembled for this service, may be seen
from the circumstance of Dya Ram being in total
ignorance of our intentions till the evening of the
10th, when the march of the troops In tliat direction
gave him notice of his danger. Immediately Hat
trass was in a state of bustle and confusion, and war-
like preparations were commenced with alacrity.—
John Shakespeare, Esq. Superintendant of Police,
acts as political agent on the occasion, and had en-
tered on negociations with the refractory Chief when
the last accounts came away. The whole of the force,
with the artillery, was not expected to reach the pro.
posed scene of action before the 18th. Hopes are,
however, entertained that the affair will terminate
without bloodshed, and that Dya- Ram, seeing the
folly of drawing upon himself certain ruin, will con.
emu the dismantling of his fort, and admit the due
administration of the law in his territory, part of
wh ch he holds as a Jagheerdar, and part as a com-
mon Zmiindar."
In the same Gazette is the following distressing ac-
count :-..'e We are concerned to state a melancholy
aieident, which occurred in Cilium's° harbour on the
27th of January, by the upsetting of one of the boats
belonging to his Majesty's ship IPHIGENIA. From the
accounts received, it app.-ars, that a party of Officers
belonging to his Majesty's 73d Regiment had pro-
ceeded on hoard the IPHIGESIA on that day to dine
with the Officers of the ship, and that on their return
in the evening, the boat unfortunately upset, by which
distressing occurrence no less than seven lives were
lose. Ensigns CAAIPSILL, CoANE, and HAN WELL" of

happened."

From the Montreal Herald, of June 28th, we ex-
tract the following
'•Last Monday morning we understand dispatches
arrived its this city from Fort William. A ecording
to rumour, the following are the occurrenles which
took place at the Fort and ;svelte interior. It is said
that Captain D'Oesenuonsovith a considerable party,
left Fort William in the autumn, and reached Fort
Douglas, in Red River settlement, abort the 10th of
January. Report states, that he and his party had
made prisoners of a Mr Mc LALLAN and a Mans.
MAINVILLE, two persons supposed to have been abet-
t•'rs in the murder of Mr. KEVENEY ; it is also repor-
ted that several Bruce had been made prisoners "Mis-
cue resistance. About the let of April, sever?' of the
settlers had returned to Red River, and it was be.
lieved that plenty of seeds had been preserved to pro-
duce considerable crops this season. About the let of
Mae Lord SELKIRK left fort William for Red River,
leaving Mr. SPENCER and other persons in possession
of the place. We give these reports as we heard
them ; but it is expected further particulars will ar-
tire in a few days, giving a more detailed narrative
of the several transactions that have taken place."
