The Hamburg mail, arrived lat night, and
has brought intelligence of a mott important ma
ture. The fteps adopted by this country have
occaiioned a
Change in The Cabinet of Berlin.
Count Haugwitz, who has been the fatal adj
viier of thoie reafures which have produced,
and threatened Till greater mitchell to his coun-
try, has retired from an Office which he had
neither the talents nor integrity neceffary to
render efficient for the public good, and has
left Count Keller in the full administration of
affairs. The circumstances which produced
this event, are tated to have proceeded from
the Kings requet to the latter minifter, to
fugcet the means mott likely to bring about
reconciliation between the courts of Berlin and
London. The irf tept taken has been to pro-
duce orders TO the Prui'an ports in th- Raltic.

leon tuffer Frederick William TO open his ports

Another important piece of intelligence is fla

cording to thefe "the differences relative 70 the

commoda.ed. The representations made at St.
Peteribnrgh have produced the effects wiq,ei

know not what degree of credit is due to this
ftatement.
