W RS AW, JULY 7.—111 s Highness Prince Ponia-

Grand Army, has addressed to the Poles, who are
under his command, the following Order of the
Day :
,
" Bead-quarters, Thwgrndo, July 6. '
" &moseys !—To communicating to you the Proclamation of
his Majesty the Emperor of the French, I am convinced of the
sentiments with which vou will reply to his appeal, and that yon
will readily perceive that a new field is opening to you in which
you will cover yourselves with glory. Already in two wars
you have had an opportunity at recognizing the restorer of
mour coun:ry, and of la) jag the foundation of the glory of the
olish army. I have no doubt that, forming as you do In the
present war, in the grand army, a corps, which this powerful
'Protector has hia self denominated the Army of Poland, and
which is to decide the fate of many millions of Poles, your
countrymen, -you will then prove yourselves worthy of the
French, in conjunction with whom we fight, as well as of those
projectors which has e, daring so long a period, formed the ob-
ject of our wishes, and which now begin to he put in execution
for us. We ought, then, to redouble our efforts. l.et no fa-
tigues -no privations, enfeeble the warlike spirit which we have
inherited. We shall once more prove to the whole world that
the sacred name of country renders its real children invincible."
Posen, Jrior 1l.—:-Different corps of troops are
continually poising through our city on their way to

" WASIIINCTON, JUNE'S, 1812.

ic Seal had the honour of seeing you at your
°see, yesterday, I have perceived an article in the
yahlic prints, stated to be extracted from an English
Newspaper, and purporting to be an official declara-
tion of his Ito) al Highness the Prince Regent,
that the Orders in Council nil be, and are, abso-
lutely revoked, from the period when the Berlin and
Milan D.Cfeel shall, by some authentic act of the
French Coternment, publicly promulgated, be ex-
pressly and unconditionally repealed.
" ton :airing the important nature 8f the above-
mentioned article, and the probability, that I shall
lave soon to he the organ of some official tnmmunica-
tion to the American Government in relation to it,
I cannot but trust, that no measure will, meanwhile,
be adopted by the Congress, which would defeat the
endeavour of procuring a complete reconciliation be-
tween oar two countries."

LONDON:
"11ONDA* Aireure 3, ISM

We have this forenootTreceived an Anholt Mail,
to the 26th 'ultimo, which brings accounts from
Riga to the 14th. The following are .the only ex-
tracts worthy of notice :

COTTENBURGH, Jot, 25.
Nothing of importance has taken place between
the hostile armies, according to accounts from Riga,
dated July 14. The Russians persist in their system
of falling tack. At Licbau a large quantity of grain
was thrown into the sea, and nearly all the inhabi-
tants hare left the place : some letters say, that there
are only three or four families remaining.
Count 110HEN1.0; with about 40 man, has been
taken prisoners, whilst reconnoitring.
The first Baltic convoy for England is still in the
Roads, having. put back six times.
On the 21st4 the Sheldrake was dispatched for
England by. Sir JAMES SAussanEz, with information
from Mr. THORNTON, that he had, on the part of
. Great Britain, signed the Preliminaries of Peace
with ltussia and Sweden.

Erlich Papers down to the 22d ult. containing
the )6th Bulletin, -dated at \Vilna, July li, and
other important and interesting documents-..-will-be
found in our Paper of this day ; and while they
state, that the Russians have retreated nearly to
their ancient frontier, they convince us that, if the
subjugation of Russia formed NAPOLEON'S object,
he has undertaken a task of a most difficult nature,
for his progress is not marked with the rapidity of
his usual operations. The elements are unfriendly to
his march, though this alone irsot the cause of his
long stay at \Vilna. Harbrgithizing ancient Po-
land, from which he has driven-the Russians ; and if
he stop there, and make the Poles what he says he
will—a free people—he will have merited, in that re-
spect, the esteem of every friend of the human race.
If his object be the subjugation of Russia, the war
must be spun out to a length, the idea of which
shocks humanity to contemplate. In the Austrian
and Prussian ware he passed along with the speed of
lightning ; unties fell before him like stubble, nor
did an. immetise population anyways retard his pro-
gress. Here the case is different, because the ob-
jecits so : he intended ta make Austria and Prussia
bend the knee to him, but it suited not his purpose
to revolutionise those countries. But Poland he in-
tended to revolutionise, because he there could
raise a powerful nation from the dust, that would act
like the left hand of France against the powers of
the North. The people, as well as the Government,
will be his friend—they will recruit his old, and
form now armies, in return for having restored them
to political existence.

• YARMOUTH, AdG.2.
Arrived the Beaver sloop of war from Wingo
Sound, with dispatches from "Sir JAMES SAUMAUEZ.
The utmost exertion is using in the Swedish ports to
equip all their transports and Small vessels, in order
to embark a large force to act against the French.
MOREAU is daily expected in Sweden. An immense
quantity of corn is on its way from the Russian ports
fer England. The Swedes are all alive, and very
hearty in the cause.

Yesterday a Cadiz Mail arrived, by which we have
Grtzetas de la Regenria to the 17th ult. They con-
tain nothing respecting the operations of the Allied
Army subsequent to the Ist of. last month, and our
intelligence from the same quarter, through Oporto,
is ten or twelve dayi-,later. Contributions were
raising at Madrid, and in the five adjacent prefects,
to which the authority of Jones only extends, to
the amount of upwards of two millions sterling, and
the country was reduced to a state of utter ruin by
these exactions. The French were removing from
La Mancha, and with them General BOCNOT, with
the Members of the Criminal Court of Ciudad Real.
Demerara Gazettes have been received to the mid-
die of May, which contradict a report of several
vessels having been captured off the coast,, and of the
Liberty gan-brig having had an action with a French
squadron; and also state, that the long-existing differ-
ences between the Colonies of 'ltinerate and Ber-
bice had been finally adjusted by Commissioners ap-
pointed for that purpose. The Governments and
Courts of Justice of both settlements have been con-
solidated, in consequence of the instructions carried
out by Governor CARMICHAEL, and all legal pro-
ceedings are in future to be carried on in English lan.
gunge. The C,-.lrt of Policy passed an Act, on the,
21)th April, for changing the name of the principal
town in atmerara from Stabroek to George-Town.
Accounts from Batavia mention, that upon the
news of its reduction ariving at the Dutch settlement
of Palembang, the Malays, instigated by the Rajah,
rose and massacred the troops in garrison, consisting,
with their families, of 200 souls. A detachment of
British troops had previously sailed from Batavia to
take possession of Palembang. A Colonial Corps
was organizing in Java. The troops in Batavia, and
the immediate environs, had suffered much from sick-1
ness; but those at other points of the coast, and in
the interior, enjoyed excellent health.
Letters from the Cape of Good Hope state, that
the Caffres in the interior had lately assembled in
considerable bodies, and attacking the Dutch farm-.
ers, committed various depredations and cruelties.—
in consequence of these outrages, the Cape Hotten-
tot Regiment, with a company of European artillery,
and a squadron of dragoons, had been marrhed for
the interior.. General CRAnOCK, the Governor, had
remitted all duties npoti the export of articles, the
growth, produce, or manufacture of Southern Africa.
A Me:aortal from some Merchants interested in'
the trade of New South Wales, praying for leave to
import direct from thence a considerable quantity of,
mother of pearl, and pearl shells, the produce or a
new fishery contiguous to Otaheite, was lately refer-
red from the Board of Trade to the First India Com-
pany. The Directors refused their permission, un-

Which says---" Lam not disposed to make any !
unnecessary difficulty on account of the informality
of the document alluded to in the last letter. If the
De7laration of the Prince Regent was such as to af-
tad the satisfaction required, it would be received
in an farm entitled to credit, with great interest, as
a token of just and friendly sentiments in 3 our Go-
%minima towards the United States. But nothing
is seen in that act of the character which you impute
to it. NVithout removing a single objection to the!
principle on which the Orders in Council were issued,
nil have been maintained, it affords a complete jus-
Clration of the demand heretofore made on your
Government for their repeal.
"So far as the French Decrees violated the neutral
commerce of the United States, we had a right to
'lnland the repeal, and obtained it. The repeal was
ticlared by an authentic and formal act of the French
%ailment, and communicated to this Government
1.. rite Minister Plenipotentiary of the United states,
le Pt is, and to the British Government by their Minis-
ter I lenipotentiary at London; and has, moreover been
ofilrially published within the United States. The
to:no.inicity of the repeal was placed beyond all con-
tr‘venir, and the official, manner in which it was
r-tuniattirated to your Government, ought to have
Lyn satisfactory to it.
" lu reply to your insinuation, that the demand

ni:,;le in concert with France, to obtain ftont Great-
an abandonment of her maritime rights ; it is
suilitient to refer you to documents which have been
lung 14.10 re the public,. and particularly to the let-
ter of Mr. Ptnkney to the Marquis 'Wellesley, of itt- I
atisry 11, 1811, protesting in the most -solemn man-
sier rpinsi looking to any other source for the opi-
nions and principles of the United States, than to the!
taitetlStatus themselves. Let me repeat, with re-
spect to the Orden in Councils, that all we demand
it. that they cease to violate the neutral rights of the
I.instal states, which they bare violated, and still
lints:e on the high sea, should they be continued as
to Prance in any form which may not violate those
Lighl. or to any other neutral nation to which they

STETTIN, Jut.ir 4.

We receive daily accounts of the excesses which
have been, and still are, daily committed by the
French troops. It is asserted, that in the neighbour-
hood of Konigsberg, they have forced the peasants
to drag the ammunition-wriggons, there not being a
sufficient number of horses obtainable for such pur-
pose; and they write from Insterburg, that two pea-
sants had been hung up by the feet, because that they
did not give the French soldiers what they had not
to give. Nor do the German soldiery receive greater
praise.—(Stockholin, JuIN 20.)

We have just received Corunna Papers to the 25th
ult. from which we ettract the following:—
ST. VINCENT DU LA BARQUEIIA, .7i:ix 19.

BONNST has been completely routed in Tordesil-
las; he lost 3000 mu, and the remainder of his
army was completely dispersed.—(Coranna Ga--ette,
Ails 24.)

a/MINNA, Jett' 19.
Lord WeLuturrox will, no doubt, have already
entered Valladolid ; 110 is expected in Burgos, Lo-
grano, and Madrid : at least, the situation of the
brilliant English army leads us to expect this. One
thousand eight hundred cavalry and 5000 infantry
were in Cahlinmont, three leagues west of Vallado-
lid, with the order of march in the direction of
Duenas. The siege of Astorga is reduced to a
strict blockade. Our troops have taken, and
will take, the road of Zamora and Toro ; others
will proceed by Carrion and Valderas, to reinforce
thost, who have passed through those places.'
The 7th army has extended. itself near to Vittoria,
to observe CAnArct.t.t, and support MI,,A, after
having persecuted Bourn; who, it appears, entered
Valladolid on the 6th, from whence he retired with
MARMONT en the 7th, kering 4;000 sick.—(C.)rztß•

What must be the feelings of the PRINCE REGENT,
with the lively interestwhich he takes in the cause of
the Sovereigns of Europe, to see his Government
left in the hands of a Cabinet who confess their im-
becility, and who yet chaffer for the loaves and
fishes, when the means of strengtbiffing it is present-
ed to them ?-111ow can he venture on the relaxation
which he promises to himself by his journey into

Extract of a letter, dated Madras, Feb. 2.8, 1812 :
—" The Mabrattas would he troublesome if they
could; but Lord Watt.Estry has left them neither
the means nor the power : all that tbey can do, they
sare ouw doing, 4o wit, tearing each other to pieceq.
1111oLlaa's death has made no alteration in Malwatta
politics. There' is, indeed, a man named AMELR Ku.&
who, at some distant period may give us tame trouble,
bet at present he can do nothing ; for he has not
any gold or silver, and they have not yet learned its
this country to maintain armi,,s liy bits of paper,.
All is quiet on both sides of the Peninsula, and our
army tranquil and united in good faith and bar-
'mony. All we have to fear it a want of,rice; as we
bad not any monsoon, and rice being' scarce and
dear in Bengal also, we are much alarmed. Our
capture of Java, we apprehend, like the Isle of
Filature, will prove only an increase of our expenses,
and a draining from all the Presidencies. Some of
the Madras merchants have made speculations to
Java, by which they have lost about 40 per cent. on
their prime cost. The only domestic article I have
to inform you of is, the failure of the house of
HARRINGTON and Co. for about 22 lees of rigodas,
which has ruined and made beggars of nearly 2000
families: they are indebted to a native to the south-
ward, nearly three lacs of pagodas. Many people
who were going home in the shipsarhich sail to-mor-
row, are now destined to remain here far their lives.
The sensation which this failure has caused is dread-
ful.—Of our squadron I have nothing to impart, ex-
cept that our Admiralty Court has taken tho prize-
money away from the captors of Amboyna, &c.
making it a Droit to the King."
It is stated in a Jamaica paper of the 15th of June,
" that the Junta of Carthagena had sent a deputa-
tion to the Vice-Roy of Panama (who had marchei

missioners expected from &Wald and Spin, to
mediate between the Mother Country and her cola-
nies."
