I.ubec BY Eacalade' marsna, Coun'
assd;nrk. caused the Swedish arny
- advance. When arrived at about
league from the town, ne ordered
= halt. to wait for the ladders, dur
inc the interval he engaged impair
, ,aS with the enemy. 1t was aIrea-
~ ,Iy three o'clock, the ladders were
mt vet come up; tho knowledge
which he had of the fortress OF Luz
heo. and Of the means OF defence
wh;eh it afforded to man OF skill q
rasolutien. induced Marshal stedingk
NO, to reject proposals. Gen. halle
ma mand signed with colonel Bern
. . chief of the staff ofthe swed-
;,h army, . capitulation, importing
that the enemy's troops should eva
cuate the town at ten at night, give
up at Ave in the afternoon the Mol
len Gate, and not be pursued till Day
| break of the following morning.
The enemy having only to deiena
| the front ofthe Molten Gate, covered
by a double ditch filed with water
and adyancod works. bad it always
in his power to effect his retreat
while there was DO bridge upon the
Trays, and according to the uniform
reports oftbe Engineers, twenty Tour
bours would have been requisite to
threw one over.
The troops entered the town at ten
o'clock at night.
The enemy retiredupon Segeburg.
Gen. Wallmoden is marching upon
that point; and Gen. skioidebrand
began this msrnipg at six o'clock to
| pursue the enemy with his cavalry.
| Some hundreds Of prisoners have al
ready been made.
The inhabitants ofLubec were de-
tcrmined to second by means more
effieacious than mere wishes, the ef-
forts Of the army. which came to
restore to them their name, their
rights and Independence: they were
ready to join their arms to those OF
their assailapts. q his brave reso.
luton is an appeal to the inhabitants
of Hamburger.
Luhec now resumes its ancient de.
nomination Of free and HaBseatic ci-
ty; the flag OF civilization and of
commerce again waves on its walls.
Thus shall justice always destroy the
edifice raised by violence.
The king of Denmark must see 10
the capitula.ion granted to his troops
that the door of reconciliation with
Sweden is not yet closed. He has
only to lend al ear to tho prayers
of his subjects, to the wishes Of the
inhabitants Of the north, and to the
generous proposals Of Sweden and
her allies.

LONDON, November Is.

y
missioners from the United States to
st. Petersburg. arrived in town this
morning. with dispatches from his
Majesty's ministers. 1t is reported
the Emperor Alexander has accept
ed the Office Of mediator between the
British aud American government.
From the Boston Daily 4drertiser
Of Thursday.
We continue to-day the details Of
foreign news contained in English
papers, received by the ANA Alex
snder, as late as the 25th and eth
Of Dece nbar. That there is some.
thing yet in reserve we have every
rea SON to believe-and what is worse,
we have the modification to know
that it will not be diyulged as long
as it is possible to keep it secret, It
is obvious that no commercial specu.
lations could be founded on any thing
that has hitherto heen suffered to
transpire-it is not less certain, that
certain houses in this town have or
dered large purchases Of certain
articles Of southern produce. We
leave it to others to supmise the pro-
bable nature Of the information of
which they are exclusively posses
sed--it is enough for US to repeat the
assurance that there is something
still behind the curtain.
IF, however, we are kept in the
dark in regard to facts, We have all
the light which can be afforded BY o.
pinion. In addition to the remarks
OF the Courier published in yester-
days paper, we have copied supdry
observations from prints of different
political characters, which will serve
to show the universally Of the sem.
timent which prevails among all clas-
ses in Great Britain on the subject
ofpeacs. That anyimportant change
should have taken place either in
public feeling, or in the posture Of
affairs, at the time when the Ann
Alexander sailed, is scarcely credible.
