FOREIGN JOURNALS.--Nfe have re-
ceived the HAMBURG Correspondents OF the lst
inst. which is one day later than the papers
brought regularly by the mail We. have al
ready stated, that the head quarters Of the king
of Prussia were to be removed tfara Nauen-
burg to Hoff This has been effected. Inc
Prussian troops under the command 81 prince
Hohenlohe, crossed the Mibe IN three places,
and reached without difficulty the point desIf-
ed. This activity bcspeakS vigilance oil pre-
paration, from which every thing is to be ex-
pec.ed. An Austrian army OF Observation Is
collecting at Prague, and another, consisting
chiefly of cavalry, on the frontiers or Bone
mia The French are concentrating them-
selves between Wurtzburgh and Schweinturt.
The Bavarian envoy is about to leave Berlin.
Thus Ear every thing leads to the belief OF an
immediate collision.
PARIS PAPERS
To the date Of Tuesday last, the 9TH instant,
have also been received.
Bonaparte left Mentz on the ist instant for
Wurtsbargh, where the French troops were
to be assembled by the 4tl instant. This does
not look as if the negotiations with Prussia
were likely to be continued. NJ. knobelSdort,
we have little doubt, is gone to the head quar-
tiers of the Prussian army, and not TO Mentz.
NJ. Lafoget, at Berlin, had asked aad obtained
his passports, though on the eth ne had not
left Berlin.
The Paris papers appear little anxious a.
bout the conduct OF Austria, but they assert
that the court of Vienna has given the most
posiaive assurances Of its determination to re-
main neutral.
A letter from frankfort says, " We regard
the military measures adoptedby Austria as a
consequence of this denomination In the
mean time, however, the French retain Bran
nau, and are making no preparations fer eav-
ing it. The Austrian prisoners, on the other
hand, are allowed to return home, $4,000 have
reached the Austrian territory out OF $4,000.
Nevertheless, the French government deems
it prudent to leave a large force to watch the
motions of Austria. Marshal Soult's corps,
and part of Lefebyres, is stationed in the
neighborhood OF lngoistadt for this purpose.
Some letters from Suabia and Bavaria, state
that the Bavarian troops will act IS the corps of
Observation, while Soults joins the grand az
my. Bernadotte' S corps, which was at Ans
zach, has marched towards SAKE Cobourg and
Memingen Marshal Berthier had left Mu-
mich, and was expected at Wurtzburga, to
meet Bonaparte. FroM the proximity of the
two armies, it is highly probable, that unless
an adjustment speedily takes place, hostilitiss
would commence early in October. 1t was
on the seventh of October last year, that the
CAMPAIGN began between the French and Aus
TRANS.
The Prussians, it appears, are pretty near
ly ready to give or receive the attack. The
number of their forces, however, lis not easy
to ascertain. a letter from Dresden says, that
10000 men had passed through Saxony, to-
wards the frontiers. The Saxons are 2 81 600
strong.
The Moniteur boasts of the prornptisude
with which the Consumption has been executed
IN thediferent departments, and Of the COOS
disposition of the recruits. The anseiefy 4
shew the activity of some departments Il
doubtless meanl as stimulus TO others. TX
