yesterday arrived at this port the brig

From. Captain q. and his passengers, the
Editor OF the Mercantile Advertiser has re-
ceiFed regular file of London papers TO the
goth June, inclusive, and Lloyd's List to the
10th.
BY the Statira, we learn, that the british
munster Mr. Jackson had not sailed for
America but that he was about Sailing I'm a
s!ooP of war for America. The Phoenix
irigate was ordered for some other service.
Our Commercial friends will find, by re-
ferrihs to our extracts from Lloyd's Lists,
that greas number of American vessels
have arrived in British ports. The Stat;ra
is the bearer of dispatches from the Ameri-
can Minister in London to Tie government
Of the y. States.
An immense number OF American vessels
entered the ports of England on the 18th Of
June. (report says, 80 sail arrived at Liver
poop and it will be seen, by our extracts
from shipping list to the 18th, that Ameri-
can vessels were daily arriving.
he gentlemen VINO came passengers in
the Statira, state, that it WAS tie general o.
pinlon III England, that an adjustment
or differences between this ami that country.
would soon take place after the arrival of
MIR. jackson, who was on the Ell. of sailing
tor America, to succeed Mr.. Erskine. his
baggage and family were going on board a
sloop OF war, and he would sail in Eve or six
DAYS.
There had been no battles of moment
since the defeat of Bonaparte near Vienna
on the 2!st and 22d of May the reason of
which is, that Napoleon was waiting the ar
ri fal of large Russian army which Was mar

This morning arrived Mail from He
lisoland, by which we have received the fol-
lowing -
BANKS OF THE ELpE, June 9.

battle OF Aspern, received proposals from

ded to the Archduke Charles, who returned
1t with the following note -
&c Brother, take My MarshaPs staff from
me, and let me rather know the Austrian
name no more, nor yours, but let me retire
with my Brothers to Hungary"
% The Duke OF Valmy (Kellerman) has.
1t is sad, received orders to occupy Prus-
sia.'
Two very important reports have got into
TWAS confidently stated on Sa-
turday, that the King of Prussia has declar-
cd war against France; and it was at the
same time asserted, that another battle had
been fought OIL the left bank of the Danube
III which Bonaparte had proved successful
ne 1oi'iner OF these reports obtained ccnsi-
derable credit in the city, and letters con
tanning what was stated to be the substance
OF his Prussian Majcsty's Declaration were
Shewn. 1t was observed however, that diff.
lerehces SO material appeared in these des-
crlplionS OF the Pretended Prussian Mani
iesto thatno reliance could be placed on the
accuracy OF any of them. The arrival of the
young Prince Of Orange in this Country has
tended, we believe, to spread an opinion that
the King OF Prussia has resolved to take :.
part In the war against France and it is
SAID tGat he has been determined to take
thls course, In consequence of Bonaparte'
having expressed himself dissatisfied with
all the explanations that have been offered
by the Cabinet of Koningsberg respecting the
Conduct. OF Schill. The rumour, however.
must be accompanied by better evidence
than any that has yet been adduced in its
support, before the doubts which it is cal
culated to excite can be removed. If the
KING OF Prussia has determined to 30 to war
1t is probably in consequence of a conviction
that Bonaparte has resolved to strip him of
!; he small remains of power he has still left.
IL must be a last effort Of despair With re-
gard to the latter report, it il certainly NOT
improbable that a battle has taken place ON
the Danube but the authority for that fact
is not better than that &c thePrussjap declara
ton OF war. The rumour is stated in Istters
from Holland, and is said to be corrobor,ted
by gentleman who arrived on FRIDAY Mt
tiarwich, iii neutral vessel, from the Cont.
nent.
Colonel Washington Morton, a gentleman
OF very considerable influence in America.
arrived at Portsmouth, from London. last
week, III SIX hours, and sailed with dispatch
es OF great Importance from Mr.. Pinkney.
the american Minister, to Gen. Armstrong
at Paris.
We understand that government is maxi
ing vigorous preparations to equip another
armament. ReinfOrccments are daiIy pro-
ceeding to Portugal, both from this country
and Ireland and it is said especially that
Cavalry IS to be forwarded, the want of hich
has been so loudly complained Of in every
part OF the peninsula. An opinion is like
wise entertained, that government purposes
