The intelligence of peace having been
signed with Russia, was received with
the greatest surprise in every part Of
Germany, for the niAvements which the
troops had begun TO make seemed rather
TO announce preparations for war--we
can hardly believe that the sketch Of the
terms Of the treaty brought by the mails
Yesterday, was correct: some of the
principal stipulations seem TO have been
omitted. It is obvious, however, that
Germanyhas been abandoned to her fate,
and that Bounaparte IS to parcel It out,
and new cast and mode il according to
his pleasure. Il Is stated in one of the
Paris papers, !" that lord Yarmouth was
constantly present at the conferences be.
tween NJ. NJ. Clarke, and D'0ubril,
from which il Is NOT doubted that the
British cabinet consented TO the treaty.
II was ratified by the Emperor on the
2oth Of Iuiy, and M. D'Oubril immedi-
ately departed with it for ST. Petersburg,

Mr.. Freeman returned to this place
on SATURDAY. last, after shas ing assembled
40 miles above this place, where the
Spaniards had been waiting for him for
Eve days. A little after the usual time
for stopping for dinner, detachment
of the Spanish party amounting to about
one hundred and fifty men, crossed the
river in full galiop, with an evidant in.
tention to charge on our party. Cap
tain Sparks with: great address took pos
session Of an elevated bank thirty feet
shove the surface of the water, and the
men being provided with rests for their
rides, in such manner AZ to have made
animpression-The Spanish command
e. appears to have perceived our adyan-
tage, and the awkward situation in which
he had placed himself, and brought his
troops to a halt Immediately; when flag
being hoisted conference took place
between Mr.. Freeman and the Spanish
commander Vienue, who declared his
] positive orders 10 be, NOT 10 allow any
armed force whateverto proceed hey ond
that place, and to rcpel by arms any At.
tempt to proceed. The conference CON.
tinued about half an hour, when MIR.
Freeman conceived It TO be his duty 10
return, considering that the tract alrea-
dy explored WAS extensive, and the wa
tiers had become 20 shallow that for the
few preceding days they had TO haul the
boass over the sand banks. "a =,
- Mr.. freeman decribes the land adj.
jacent to this river as almost wholly ,om-
posed of prairies aud thick cane breaks /;
the latter are always an indication Of
rich land, and requires Little more la5or
IN clearing than that of a corn patch.
" Yesterday gov. Claiborne arrived
20 concert measures with col. Gushing
respecting our situation, and to organize
the militia. In his conversation he APP
pears TO feel very sensibly the hostile
Conduct Of the Spanish foress, and il. I
may trust my Judgment something ener-
getie win take place AZ no great distance
of time. The Spanish forces are staff
