LATEST FROM EUROPE.

LAT evening we received by the Hannah, Cap
tain Cott!e, from Dublin, the papers of that
city to the 9th, and Liverpool paper of the
7th May, containing London dates to the 5th
MAY.
No great events had occurred in the Grand
Armies in Regel Pruifia, or POLAND, as late as
the 9Th April. Great numbers oftroops were
daily advancing to reinforce both. The En-
peror Alexander had joined his army /; and &C.
neral Bennington retained his command, and the
entire confidence of his rovereign. Lord Hut
clinton was with the RufIian army.
The Swedts, from StralfunG, having follow
ed the French army too far, wera in their turn,
attacked by Martial Mortier, defeated & bro't
beyond Anklan, with the lo(6 of 400 made pri-
foners, and pieces cannon. On this reverfe,
the Swedilh commander propof,d an armiltice,
which was agreed TO, and two Swedifh llands
pledged as guarantees. Fac party was at Ii
her;y 10 break the armiftice on giving ten days
notice. 1T wss conjectured m England, the
arnraice would not be ratified by the king Of
Sweden.
The complete failure of the Englifh expedi-
ton sgsnR ConfanI,1opie was confirmed. Adj
miral Duckworth had returned into the Ar
chipeIago, with the Iofa in the panages of the
Dardaneles of co killed and PIG wounded.
Stoae balls were fired into the feet in the mar
rows weighing 700 VT. each. Six Turkih
thips of war were deitroyed-On the return of
the Engliih to TenedoS, they were joined
(,Harch I6.h) by feven fail of Ruilian line of
battle fhiDs. The failure of the expedition is
attributedio calm weather, and the want of
troops.
The Rufians had invened Ifmail; had gained
fome advantages, and receive, reinforcements
from the Crinea but the Ottoman forces were
collecting in ftrength, and French army was
on the point of entering Turkey. French in
nuence was paramount in Conftantinople and
Auhria appeared to fde againf Rufiia.
We continue 10 receive reports of the recent
capture of Alexandria, in Egypt, by Britiih
force under the direction Of Sir Sidney Smith.
The London papers, il is true, fpealz of ltroDg
expedition having failed from Sicily; but we
have no correct accounts of its defination /:
Be6des, we know, Sir Sidney was engaged in
tae a1air Of fhs Dardanelles, :he 9th February
