H AMBU RGII, J uLY 21.—The Journal of the
Mouths of the Elbe contains the following very cu-
rious extract of a letter from Leipsic, dated July 8 :
luasta.uch as, nevertheless, some support is ne-
cessary for the public revenue of a great city, allow
ine, sir, to fix the attention of your merchants to
a point, which cannot possibly have escaped the
notice of those, who judge calmlyand according to
their practical experience, or the results of their ob-

Nervations.
" The Epglish have dispatched to the North this
year as many vessels as in former years. A part has
proceeded to the 14:c; and another part had for its
destination Archangel, a polar course, frequented
since the promulgation of the Berlin and Milan De-
crees, anti by which coffee has to pass ()ter a space
of from. seven to eight hundred leagues before it oan
arrive at the place where it is to be clandestinely con-
sumed.
" The exports of 1508-9-10, have been present-
ed to Europe, as opening a vent for from fifteen to
twenty niiitions' worth of colonial articles or maim-
factored goods.
" The exports of 1811 presented such a diminu-
r as, otie ouid suppose, left no room for arous-
ing the public with a statement of the flourishing
condition of the fleets of the North. Very few of
the articles were sold.
" 'f he veesels dispatched in 1812 were as flourish-
ing, numerically sneaking; but they had not car-
goes of more than 250,0001. (about 6,000,000 of
francs) in value. A vessel, whose lading amounted
to from sto 600,000 francs, in the coarse of 1810,
brought to their consignees this year but to the
amount of from 60 to 80,000 francs, more with a
view to keep connectious, on the point of being ex-
tinguished, than in the hope of profit ; for it is no-
teitious, that the invoices in the North undergo a
loss of per cent. for the shippers.
" The money expended, however, on that COO.
voy, will not be entirely lost.
The goods formerly exported, and which re-
main unsold, are sufficient to lade a vast number of
vessels, and it will be a source of some consolation
to the London merchant to see goods returned which ,
he had given up as lost, unless indeed the difficulty
Of obtaining warehouses in England, and the high
_ rents in that country, should induce hint to prefer
having them stored in Anholt, Heligoland, or
Malta.
" Subjects for reflection seem to be wanted.
Make your friends acquainted with the details which
I have imparted to you ; they are pretty exact, and
assuredly present important and useful aids to those
who are capable of availing themselves of them."
-NAN'TZ, JULY 27.—A convoy from the south en-
tered Loire river oo the 29,d inst. It had been pur-
sued near Bourgueuf by eight English boats, one of
which, belonging to the enemy's frigate the Niemen,
teas raptured on the same day by the gun-boat, Ns.
'l6l, commanded by M. Desbrosses, who had also
retaken from the eaomy a French chasse-maree, of
which they had taken possession.—(Journal de Pa-
ris. Jug. 1.)
Ftoueecc, JULY 20.—Our city has been the first
jn French t,aly, to learn the rapid progress of the
French army iu Russia ; there cannot be another 1
city iu the empire where the intelligence could have
made a mo:e agreeable impression. We have had
some knowledge of the Russians, and are not partial
to them. They paid us a visit in September and
October, 1790, and gave us an idea of the lot which
these dead-savages of the north were preparing for
the inhabitants of the south, if the band of the Em.
perer had not raised up a barrier between them and
pivilised Europe.
They were at that time, as they said, our allies ;
they plundered a pert of the shops of oar city, they
desqlated the neigldiooring plains of Florence, and
destroyed 'one Waif 'of our splendid walk "Des
Casi:Ones.” .Tusige from that of the feeling which we
have preserved **(tweeds them, and of the pitman
With *which we see ourselves aNeneted.
