PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.
LONDON, Monday Night, .'1ay q
TIE BALTIC.

Ereca,YeN from Oh DoaiN 'hC w
H. ship Of the British admiral from
krcr,ip to the date Of the eth ult.-and
kfro,o Hamburg to the 18th instant. 1t
s.,,ears w our advices that matters are
81 last accommodated between Russia and
5Era,ce. Our friend at the Prussian court
s,ys. the bushes is concluded, and We on
I Nv wait for the official account OF its ter
I'M iaation
4 letter from the secretary of Sir James
kS,umareZ saws, that vessel with BRITISH
manufactures proceeding to Russian
bort. has been stepped, and that hence
] he concludes matters are uniaVoraDle
with resDeet to that power. We have be-
r,ra had occasion to notice that this gen
tleman is not always well informed on
trading concerns. Any vessel conveying
British manufactures, proceeding TO
Prussian port, must in common prudence
he stoned, because they are absolutely
prohibited in the imperial harbors, and
If we were in profound peace with Alex
ander, they would be subject to immedi-
ate confseation. This detention, there
fore, ON which Mr.. Champion, the secre-
tary grounds his fears Of new purposes
Of hostility by Russia to cur commerce,
leads to no such conclusion but we adj
nit on ether grounds that the utmost eau
ton is cxpedient in the maintenance OF
oar intercourse with that power.
The utmost anxiety prevails to ascer-
tain the determination of Sweden with re-
gard to the British property, amounting
to nearly three millions within its Jurisdic-
tion. 1t has been said that Sweden is
disposed to be lenient towards us. but the
Mail Of to-day supplies no single fact up
on which such a conjecture can be found
ed, and we apprehend that ncthlng less
than annoyance fIom the British Naval
Armament will induce the Government
Of that country to show respect to British
interests.
Intercepted Correspondence.
Ministers have received by the Mer-
maid. from Cadiz, copies of Intercepted
Letters of great Importance. Baron LIE
Jeane,< Aid lie Camp to Bertnier, who
WAS before employed on confidential
message to the King of Sweden, has been
lately engaged on mission to the Duke
sof Daimatia who had represented to the
minister at Paris the absolute impossihl-
Atty of his retaining his situation south o.
$the Sierra aIorena, and lis intention OF
&letrcatin, to Ia Cariehao with the corps
6under Victor and Sebas;iani, unless he
Nshould receive immediate reiniOrcements.
SI;aron LIE JeEnc having arrived OH the
3frontiers OF Spain, ventured TO proceed
6with an escort Of only fifty dragons, and
after having 2roeeeded some distance ne
\ WAS met by q strong party OF the Uaerii-
Has, who cut down every one OF his com
Spanions, seized his papers, and made him
Eprisoncr. The documents were, without
Edclay, forwarded 10 the Regency at Cadiz,
\ and on discovering the contents, copies
Fwere prepared and sent off instantly to
SNlarshal Reresi0rt, Lord Wellington, and
Ito all the Spanish Generals. We have
Sonly room to state the substance OF these
most interesting details.
u Berthier, in reply to Soult's obseiva-
lion, urges him to employ every exertlon
30 maintain his positions South OF the ST.
erra, and informs him that he can be pro-
- led with no reinforcements until de-
bending negotiation with Russia, which
requires France TO place herself in the
most imposing attitude, shall have been
brought to conclusion.-The minister
adls. that there is every probability OF an
amicab.e adjustment and when that is ac-
epmplished, 8 We shall again see each
Qther,"-the reinforcements will be sup
Died, and a great plan which has been
ksreed upon with his Imperial Majesty
Vii be carried into early operation
8 But the project cannot yet ripen."
m On the subject of reiniorcements, it
3eems that the mai"r.ty referred to is still
Epaoerastinated. We have to-day seen
fseatlemau, native of America. who has
nst arrived from Bayonne. and who as
lures us, that for 81 considerable time
past not more than 200o troops had pro-
ece'led towards Spain by the great rout
