GAUZMANT.

Hammon, Sser. a4.—Two Norwegian Teals
having made their appearance at the Mouth of the
Elder, an Fogy& corvettes, which kept up the
blockade of the raver, kind them. and put on board
a pan of her crew to condo" them to -Englead..—
On their parese the arm of the rrfpellire vetch
got the &calm of them. and again endeavoured
during the night to make their way up the Eyder.—
They got into the river, but the Engidli corvette 1111.
mediately purfued them maw the walls of Teoniti-
goo, threatening to fink them if they did sot inhaody
&mender. Some pieces of artillery were placed on
the heights to repel the attack of the Foglia. The
Englifli, after placing their vefel in a direaios to
commence a cannonade, after a Siert minfe they
judged it prudent to retire. It is &id that the Prince
loyal of Denmark has foot to London very heavy
complaints on the fabJee.
OCT. 7.—. For fame time a number of Foe:ribs:have
lately Battered thensfelves, that the difattrous canna
betwixt France and England might be terminated by
the good offices of Raffia. Thee hopes were revived
by the new modems taken by the Court of St. Pe-
terkurgh to reconcile the two parties. as well as by
the propofitions at the fame time made on the pan
of the French Government. There cireunshanceh
we are now ',Cured, did cell, bin at the fame time
wean informed that they have totally failed in pro-
ducing the Oka which was fo ardently longed for.
The preliminary condition of an armillice has wholly
put an end to the Negotiation. It appears that the
pacific overtures of the Courts of St. Peterlburgh
and the Thuilleries, had always for their bafis the
immediate cefation of hoftilities ; and the Court
of St. James's perfined in regarding fucb a propti-
eion as highly prejudicial to its interells. The
Hamborghers have fees, with peculiar regret, this
profiled of peace like the others which pre-
ceded it. Though they are neutral and not at all
implicated in the war, they do not the lefs powerfully
experience its inconvesiencies and its prefure.—
The difaareus confequeaces of the blockade of the
Elbe, continue to be More and more experienced.
For ages, fo few vefels have not been Peen in the
Elbe. The& veffels, which before the declara-
tion of the blockade bad completed their cures,
have been Coffered to depart ; others which arrived
previous to that event, bet had not begun to load,
have been fulfered to fail, but ooly so isoselltion that
they are laden with balls& It is very rarely that
veffeli are able to elude the vigilance of the Britifh
cruisers. For the lag three months only four velkh
have been fortunate enough to enter our port, and
this they efeded merely through a norm, which
oblird the Eye&
.fqoadron to quit its katioi..—
Maritime commerce is completely at a land. and the
loft which this occafions is far from beirq; compenfated
by the commerce carried on by T . Rendf.
boort, Kiel. and Lubeck.—Tbe Eblockading
Yqmiaron at this time calf& of eve frigates, two
cutters, and three hoops of war. Two French pri-
vateers, Stied out at Hattioorg. have for a month pall
in vain attempted to elude the vigilance of this (qua•
drop, and to get out into the North Sea. In toe
attempt to ekape, as Sash& frigate pc:ceived their
intentions, and immediately attacked them. The
cunkquence was, that one of them was takes, and
the other driven anion, from which far got off oily
by throwing her guns overboard.
