Cptain HAYNES III the fast sailing snip
WOodr'oh Sims, arrived yesterday in tf.r-
-ty-one days from Guernsey, has politely
favored rs with fife of London papers
from the Esd of April to the 9th of May.
aud Guernsey papers to the sixteenth of
the last month.
We have given in this days paper as
much of the intelligence by this arrival as
the allotment ofOur paper to the trial of Mr.
Bitrr would permit, further details will be
given in future numbers.
In England the Parliament has been dis
solved, and the new elections are going on
with great spirit, but apparently both in
England and Ireland without mere than
ordinary violence or tumut, except in 4
few Instances 1t is not possible for us to
say what will be the result, but from the
few returns that have been made, we think
the new ministry have gained ground MIR.
8fertdan we observe has been forced to "a
bandon his pretensions to Westminster, &
has been returned for a small borough un-
der the influence of the Bedford family.
The Parliament rs will be noticed i'm the
paper was hrOrog red on the 9th Of April,
10 meet ON the I3,h of May; on the both
of April Parliament was dissolved bv nro-
clamation, and the new Parliament sum
mOned to meet on the ed OF this month.
The election for the sixteen Scotch Peers
was TO take place at ftalyrood House in
Edinburgh on the 9th Of this month.
The official accounts Of the operations
Of the British feet before Constantinople
had reached London, and as to the result,
are published IN this paper; farther de-
tailed operations Of this expedition will be
given hereafter. Nothing can exceed the
chagrin and resentment which this cir
cumstance has oCcasioned in England, and
serious enquiries arc talked Of From the
view we have given Of the subject, it an
pears to have been an expedition badly di-
gested, and badly executed.
We do not perceive the smallest notice
Of the treaty with this country in any of the
papers received by this arrival in short,
the affairs Of this country, respecting the
treaty, are no more noticed than if there
had been none made, but this we account
for in the expected change in politics, which
the new Parliament will produce.
Affairs Oh the continent are detailed &,
far as VIC were enabled TO give them in thi,
days paper, from which it does appeai
that nothing important had occurred be.

Official uevs from Constaninofile
CONTINUED.

Official ne7vS from Constantinohle.
All the notes presented, as well by the
ambassador Arbuthnot, as by the vice-ad-
miral, whilst the enemy's fleet was before
Constantinople, tend to shew the eminent
check the English have received, and con-
firm the opinion we had of the good conduct
OF the Porte, and of the musselman people
Nice-admiral Duckworth had begun by
burning ship and five frigates, and by
massacreing the crews which were on
board. He arrived before Constantinople,
and the first arms which he used were
menaces Of every kind. But when he had
begun to comprehend that they did not
brighten the Porte, he changed his tone,
desisting from part of his pretensions, and
finished by considering himself TOO happy
in being able to repass the Streigh.s.
The conduct of the Porte has been ener-
getic and prudent. Scarce awakened from
the establishment which an attack as a
brupt as unexpected was calculated to in
spire, she armed all the shores, and as
SOON as the Seraglio and the coasts of Eu-
rope and Asia were sufficiently garnished
with cannon, she reinforced all the bate
ries of the Streight. When she thought
these measures were sufficient for her de.
fence, she assumed the tone that became q
great power, she menaced in her turn, and
the English fleet gained the passage of the
Da rdanelles and fed shamefully.

the efrigence OF publicity, too imtecil TO

employed by Burr to go before him to
prepare his way, and administer oaths of

the interest he felt in the success Of the
scheme, and combining events, have pro-
claimed him to the world as one of the
party.

text" Out of thine own mouth shalt thou

ANCLAM, (Syeden J April IS.

The triumph of the Swedes i'm Pomera-
MIA has been Of very short dura ion. Mar
shall Mortier has attacked them The TO-
lowing is the report of MS proceedings -
Con the 10th of April, in the evening,
marshal Mortier collected part of his
force at Pasewalk. The Swedes had a We
ry extensive line, viz heads of columns al
Falkenswald, Stoftzenburg, Stadforst, Bel
ling, and Dargitz, viz. from the banks of
the Oder to Mecklenburgh Strehtz. The
marshal formed the resolution OF attack on
their centre, without paying any regard to
the re of their tToops-coIvinced that if
he could gain the river Peene, il would GER
tainly occasion much loss and confusion a.
moIg the enemy
g. On the 18TH, at day break, the marshal
attacked and carried Belling The French
were compelled to traverse a country full
Of morasscs. In vain did the Swedes at-
tempt TO defend the pass of the Langham
After an obstinate conflict. in which they
displayed much courage, they were driven
from one position to another as far as Ali
kosenow, where the French found them
joined by the troops that had occupied An
clam.
" The enemy made an obstinate resis-
tance-but notwithstanding the effects ne
reCkOned upon from ten pieces of cannon
with which he fired Epon the French, this
position was also forcibly carried, and the
enemy fell back to Anclam IN confusion,
without attempting to avail himself Of the
position in frCnt of that town. The Swedes
were followed sword III hand, cut down in
the streets, and compelled 10 retreat over
the Pecnesbruck, which bridge, for want
of time, they were not able TO destroy.
The Swedes Suffered considerably on this
| day, and, besides the killed and wounded,
! lost 9 pieces OF cannon and 600 prisoners.
After this advantage gained over the
enemy's centre, marshal Mortier advanced
/ against the Ranks, which lie had surround
| ed. a brigade detached towards Ucket-
mund, took two pieces of cannon and made
$50 prisoners. Another column sent to-
wards Demmin, took two light pieces and
100 prisoners. Stragg ing Swedes are eve
! ~ moment brought into the French head
! quar'crs--they are ignorant Of the couB-
! try dialect, and know not what TO do with
themselves. The Swedcs are completely
| driven over the Pecne, aud the French are
in possession Of Demnin.
| " Notwithstanding, during the whole of
! the 10Th, the weather was dreadful, and
there was a troublesome fall Of hail and
| rain, the French ran space Of IS miles,
! fighting all the way
Z" At Anclam obey found several maya
zines Of corn and meal, and several ovens
in good condition.
The Swedcs have eight gun boats and
several transports, IN the Half As the
wind is contrary, and the people on board
are without provisions, IL IS probable the
must Surrender"
