Every account from the Continent tenth to con-
firm the hope we have more than once expreffed,
that Ruffle and Pruffia, for their owit fakes, even if
they had no intereft in the ultimate fuccefs of this
country, will take care to prevent the French from
themfelves in the North of Germany.
In addition to what we Rated yefterday, we have
to mention that the following letter was exhibited in
the afternoon at Mr. STOCEDALI'S mop in Piccadilly:

u Scatheln, May %I.—Evening.

• The French army es its route to Hanover was met by a Ref.
flan Aid-de-Camp, who, on the part of a Rahn General here,
requeßed a conference with the Commaader of the French troops,
ince which the French army has halted."
The Nansherr6 Corrafjwidentert, of the sift of May,,
prefents the following paragraph :
A traveller, who en the 16th pared through Detester, and
the French troops Rill there. On be 26th in the evening a report
prevailed at Bremen, that the French troops had advanced by
Hai:lone to Partisan, in the territory of Ofisabruck. From Of.
nabteck, of the Came date, the letters Rate, that the French had
gawirated keen learns farther. Os the 26th to the evening. at
eight o'clock, tie French peR paired through Ofsabrick, when
Its farther cleanses had marred there. Farther partienlars to.
morrow."
This corroborates to a certain extent the intelli-1
gence from Bentheim, in as far as it Rates that at
eight o'clock on the evening of the sBth the French
had advanced little farther than Ofnaburgh.
But the correanefs of the opinions we have hazarded
oppofition to almoß the whole of our cotempora-
'..ries, has received this morning a confirmation from a
'quarter which, in a cafe of this nature, acquires
double weight.—ln one of the Paris journals, of
which we have this morning received complete fete
to the 6th infiant inclufive, we find a letter from Ber-
lin which announces among other things,' that the
Into of !avast A is defirous to protea Hanover from
inoafion. He whites not to be under the neeeffity of
immapying it himfelf, but from all the eircumflances
.ere may infer that, if rensonflrances fail, he will have
monde to tbare decilitre meafures. The following
is the letter to which we allude :

a IMtn. May 14.

Chinn La Minifter Esnilleedlisey tif the French Re-
plete, has bad his brit audience of his Iblaysern, and was mat
gracionfly necked. For a fortnight Fait great affiekyiao pre-
vaikd in oar deparnient of foreign affairs : fermi couriers Use
been difpatcbed to Paris, Peterfburgh, Vienna. and London. It
appears, that this eornipendence Magas to the fate of the Eletto-
rate of Hanover. Our Court, without willing to rusk that coun-
try to be occupied as before, Is &Areas that it &add be prote&ed
from {liveliest. It has cart:fed this with to the French Comas
meat, and we retry moment eapat its Wirer. It is believed.
that the new eircuenflancea which have °centred. will cask the
Reno to defer his prorated tour into Franconia."
Of the general correßnefs of the above letter we
entertain no doubts whatever, and we doubt as lute
the underflanding that prevails between the Courts of
St. Peterlburgh and Berlin in the meafures they are
refpeaively adopting. This is a matter of great mo-
ment, and will have the effeet to open a little the eyes
of the Flare CONSUL.

We (hall not dwell at prefent on the confequences
that may rcfult from thefe proceedings, as a few days
will throw more light:on thefubjeft. Oor commercial
readers in the mean time will be able, from what we
have Rated, to guard thernfelves; againft the cffeBs
of mifreprefentations.
The following articles are alfo extra/led from the
French journals which reached us this da,y
PARIS, Just 4.—Among the Englifh arrefted on
the points occupied by the French troops was an
Agent of the Englifh Poft.office, who retitled at Hel-
•oetflnys. He was a Spy, who, fence the commence•
ment of hoftilities, continued to correfpond with the
Commander of the Englifh squadron. His papers
having been fealed up, feveral letters were feized,
which be was about to difpatch, and which contained
information refpeding what took place in Batavia,
and the means which might be employed againft the
Country, and againft the operations of the French

troops.
The different Commanders of the French troops,
and thole in the ports, ou;ht to be thinly on their
guard.—Mesitear.
The Gazette de France, which copies this article
from the official Journal, adds the following :mark;

el This eircumllance may terve to ezt)lain the ob-
!tinny with which Lord Haw:calmly lately refuted.

in the Houfe of Commons, to enter into any ex-
planation in regard to the manner ►n which the Britifh
Government obtained information of every thing
taking place in the ports of France and Holland. It'
may be recolletted that the motive of his refufal refted
' merely on the fear, had he given the information re-
quired ,s of cutting off the channels through which
the Englifh Government received communications
proper for enabling it how to as." It will be revel-
lated alto that Lord Ps z lt4. in the Houfe of Lords,
gave a fimilar anfwer to feveral queftions addicted
to him on the fame fubjeft."
Several of the Public Journals have announced
that, on the ad of this month, M. Orr° WAS to em-
bark with his fuite at Calais, in order to proceed to
Dover. He has not quitted Paris, and it ought not
to be fuppofed, that under the prefent circumflances,
it is poflible to fee any diplomatic communication re-
efiablifhed between France and England. It is to the
French Army we mull leave the care of oper,ing
again a door for Negotiations.--Costa de Franc:.

There two Colonies were in a hate of perfeft tranqui-
lity. At S leagoes from Ufhant Admiral Vs t Lenitive

(hot of one of them running on a different tack.
Hamra, May a9.—The Agent of the Britith Go-
vernment at Helvoet bas been arrefted. A Courier

fume hours, but as loon as the miftake was known he
was let at liberty. The firft Dutch veffel taken by the
Englifh, belonged to the Houfe of Meas. Bane and
Co. of Ant fterdam the failed from Demerara with a'
very rich cargo. The three Commiffioners appointed

day.
May 3o.----Mr. LISTON and the French Amhara-
dor have ceded to fee each other. The former has
frequent conferreaces with the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs. It appears, however, that his de
parture is now certain. He has already difcharged
a part of his domellics. Paffports are refuted to the
Englifh who are now in this Republic, and every
thing announce► that the fame meanies will be taken
in regard to them, es have been adopted by the
French Government. The communications with
England have been fufpended by fuperior orders. Ge
neral Vicroa, whole head quarters am at the Hague,
commands the French troops who have remained in
the pay of the Bitavian Republic, fince the departure
of General MOILTIVIL. There troops will be immedi
ately augmented; our Government is making every
effort to concur in the execution of the enterprises of
the French Government. It has given aria orders
that every part of our coafts, ftdceptible of an attack,
may be fortified, fo as to fecure it from any attempt
of the enemy. We no longer think of the fuppofed
negotiations between our Government and the M-
ath Minifters, to obtain neutrality for Holland ; and
it is obferved, that fine war to us has become inevi-
table, patriotifm in this country has beta revived.
HAMBURG'S, MAT 28.—Hoftilities have ;commen-
ced. Two Dutch veffels were taken near our coaft by
an Ertglifb frigate. Seven French. travellers have

atured that the French army three days ago was at
Coeverden.

The Budget is expelted to be opened next Monday.
The Right Hon. JOHN STEWART, late Attorney•
General tor Ireland, has refgned, and is fucceeded

Our accounts from every part of the country war-
rant us in afferting, that at no period fince the epoch
of the Spanifh Armada, was there ever fuch unani-
mity among all claffes, ranks, and pertuafions, as to
the exertions that ought to be made to enable the
Government to repel the infults and aggrelTions of a
turbulent and reftlefs enemy.

We mentioned a few days ago that a packet of
papers, addreed to the French Government, had
been found on board one of the 'refits carried into
Penzance. This packet was yelterday carried to the
Secretary of State's Office.
Mr. MANDBIFILL a, Under Secretary to the late Ern-
bafTy in France, is arrived in town. He was accom-
panied to Dover by four Foglia, Ladies.
At the Meeting of the Whig Club, on Toefday lag,
Mr. Fox, on his health being drank, Paid, that though
he confidercd the prefent War as more unnecellary,
and the arguments in favour of it more futile than
thofe urged in fupport of any contra in which the
country had for a long time been engaged, the Whig
Club, in cafe the enemy Ihould be mad enough to at-
tempt the location of this country, would be found
among the toremoti to riposte them with their per.
lons, their aims gad their irahrtimi.
