To a gentleman passenger in the ship
Thomas, from St. Michael, we are indebt-
ed for the loan of the London Courier of
the 10th, 18th and 18th of November, four
days the latest. The official account OF the
destruction Of the Toalon feet had not
reached London, but was hourly looked
for. f.

We received this morning some more
Hamburger rapers, from which we extract
the treaty ofpesos between Sweden and
Russia.
The substance Of the article relative to
this country has been known for some time.
The ports Of Sweden are to be shut against
Us, but salt andscolonial produce may be
imported. The king Of Sweden promises
to adher. to the continental system with
such notifications as shall be more parti-
cularly stipulated in the negotiation about
to be entered into between Sweden, France
and Denmark. 80. .".

1t seems to be expected by Bonaparte
that America will be drawn within the vor-
tex ofhis policy against this country, or as
it is called the continental system, the sys-
tenn by which the continent is to be ruined,
in the hopes that che British empire may
be ruined also. General Armstrong, who
was to have left France in the beginning Of
October, but who remains still at Paris, 10
said to have beet among the frs. to garry
70 Foneainbleau the homage of his congra:
tulations at the successful issue of the con-
test against Austria the general was most
l.favorsbly receised--he was honored with a
private confereace, and vessel was i'm
naediately ordered to be go,ready to carry
dispatches to the American government.
By some it is said that the French govern
ment has presented to general Armstrong
the project of a treaty between the two
counTies-by others it is asserted, that the
invitation made to America is to form an
alliance with France, Russia, Sweden and
Denmark, to be called the Quantuble Al
lance, for the purpose of atchieving what
Bonaparte styles, ".the freedom of the
seas" The expectation that she will &C.
cede to it has been for some time strongly
circulated at Paris, and indeed it should
seem as it the negotiation betA IN the "A.
merican government and M. Champagny
had been renewed before Bonaparte's re.
turn to Paris. .,~s ~. ....
..Death of the Marquis Of Lansdo.vn.-
On Tuesday evening died at Lansdown
house, in Barcley square, the most noble
the marquis Of Lansdown.
The king Of Saxony is gone ito Paris in
company with the French minister. The
duke of Baden, and several other of Bo.
naparts's German vassals, are on their way
thi.her to hold grand meeting, at which
sC-ae important measures respecting Ger
many will be discussed, or rather dictated
by Bonaparte. We conjecture tina, he
will change his title Of protector of,she
Confeder alton Of the Rhine, as not suffi.
cisntly expressive of his power ever the
German empire. We remark in the French
papers an article from Vienna stating that
the archives of the empire, and particular
~ the acts which neats of the ceremony
observed-in browning the emperors Of Ger
many, are to be removed to Paris. 1t is
probable that Bonaparte means to have
himself elected emperor of Germany. A..
mong tho public shews and spectacles that
are to occupy the attention of the Parisians
during the winter, there 10 to be council
or cardinals, probably 70 rebuke and de.
pose the Pope. All conversation concern
ing him has been prohibited at Paris, and
i. even made 4 punishable offence 70 sell
his picture. 4 rvs
