letter from ST. Petersburg states, thai
the effect of the hurricane was awful
y felt at Catharinechof, where nothing re-
manned buhthe fragments of some country
houses, from which the inhabitants escaped
with great difficulty, Many persons in
that town lost their lives.
The hurricane ragged with equal fury in
the Swedish capital, IN Gottenbursh, Vi
hoarge, Jutland, &c. At Stockholm, YES
sells were torn from their mooriugs, aud
roofs of houses wer, carried away, aud the
roads were so completely blocked up
with trees, that travelling was stopped
Twenty five vessels near the bridge of
MunkbTon, were carried away with the
bridge, and all of them much damaged.

The whole regiment of imperial guards
with their horses persisted. A vessel "f 90
guns has disappeared. All the imperial
vessels in the harbour Of tonstadt, are said
To have been lost. The burial places were
washed away, and the dead bodies were
floating IN the streets.
SPAIN.
In regard To the evacuation of Spain by
the French troops, the accounts are still
contradictory. A letter from Madrid of
Dec. 2, announces thai Count Digeon
would depart with the remainder of the
French troops. Two regiments # Swiss
troops remain in the barracks, and another
regiment of the same nation is To mare h
Immediately. The same letter adds, =" We
are 6 lad To have for, ign troops among us,
as they keep the place quiet, and expusd
much money.
A letter from Bayonne Of the same date,
says" that all the French troops had arr
we'd on the banks of the Ehro, and that thu
head quarters will be established AT Ylttorla
The French army in that quarter of Spain
amounts to 10000 men. This appears Ia
be confirmed by other accounts" Both of
the letters above quoted, are likely TO BE-
correct. Count Digeon probably has on
ly retired from Madrid upon the Ebro.
The French commander at Barcelona
has complained Of the conduct of the &c
clesiastics, who even go so far as to de
claim against them from the pulpit.
Gen. Latone Foissac has been compel
ed to send away from Cadiz. the Spanish
attendant of Police. in consequences of the
crying ,exations which he committed.
All the intrndants of Police have been
summoned to Madrid, to deliver their ideas
upon the state of public opinion.
A private letter from Barcrlonn of the

announce the Imprisonment of the Duke
