ZARIA, APRIL 16.

We have just been informed that a considerable
number of Tbrks are assembling upon our frontiers,
In Turkish Croatia and Bosnia; that they occupy all
the strong places ; and that they have posted a flume-
rous corps near Banjaluke, along the river Verba,
without. our being able to assign any cause which
could have given place to these movements. 'We
keep upon our guard in Dalmatia, as well as in the
Illyrian Provinces and Austlian est:sada, and have
taken all necessary measures not to be surprised by a
furious multitude. From time to time we see be-
tween the islands of Dalmatia some English ships of
war.

RACT OF A LETTER FROM ELSINFURs DATED MAY 24.

" There has been an engagement between an Eng-
lish merchant ship and a Danish lugger, command-
ed by Lieutenant Sonderich, in which the Dane was
beat off with the loss of two men killed and two
Wounded. Three sail of the line are in the BelLs, one
of them bearing an Admiral's flag ; they send boats-
ashore on the island of Sprogoe. A Swedish mer-
chant ship has been detained by the gun-boats at
Elsineur. A convoy of 60 sail has passed Nyberg.
tnglish troops have landed on the island of Sprogoe
from the three sail of the line : it was supposed that
the island was taken possession of for a watering
place."

We lately mentioned the negociation of a Commer-
cial Treaty with the Brazils, which had not then been
ratified, and the particulars of which had not been
permitted to transpire. A Gentleman who has lately
arrived in England, and who was at Rio Janeiro dux--
. ing the progress of that transaction, states, that among
the conditions of this arrangement are understood to
be the following N.--The island of St. Catherine, near
that city, is to be converted into a depot for British
tterchandize, where it is to remain unmolested ; the
duties to be imposed are to be in a ratio proportional
to those levied on Brazil commodities here ; such im-
posts to be determined, not -ad valorrm, as formerly,
but according to the invoice price; the party to whom
the duty is to be paid being itt liberty to be the pur-
chaser of the goods, at the rate of 10 per cent. higher i
• than the invoice valuation.

_ bring down the intelligence
,ernment to a later date than the
to private letters all agree in'
the public minckto be much

more favourably disposed to this country than itwas
some time ago. They likewise express an opinion,
that the Non-intercourse Bill will terminate zn the
23d of April, when the House was to adjourn.
American Papers to the 15th ult. have been re-
ceived. Mr. MACON has, it appears, brought in a
second Bill, the object of which professes to be to
regulate the commercial intercourse between the
United States and Great Britain, and France and her
dependencies. This Bill contains a provision, which
is the only part of it. we can now notice, that if
either Great Britain or France shall annul her Edicts
respecting commerce, so that the trade of America
may be carried on uninterrupted, and that the other
Nation shall not in three months after that date re-
voke or modify her decrees equally, then, that all
the prohibitory regulationsfof America shall be 'exer-
cised against the power so holding out. This Bill
was read twice.

The thanks of the Duke of CUMBERLAND were
returned at St. James's Church on Sunday, at both
morning and afternoon service, for his providential
escape.

When our squadron appeared off Flushing, on
Tuesday last, five sail of the enemy's line-of-battle
ships were discovered in an advanced position, but
they soon after retired, under an apprehension that
they might be assailsd.
We lately mentioned, that a charge of peculation
had been made against Mr. GALLATIN, the Secretary
of the American Treasury. It appears the subject
was taken up in the House of Representatives, and
that a motion for an inquiry into the conduct of Mr.
GALLATIN was lost by a majority of 106 to 7 only.

BREAD.—To-day the Lord Mayor and Aldermen
ordered it to continue at present prices.
Yesterday, the dispatches for the LORD KEITIT,
MONARCHIEARL SPENCER, LARKINS, BATAVIA, TYNE,

and delivered to their respective Pursers ; being the
