LOWER F.LBE, APRIL 17.  lg We are here in fuch a fituation that it is almoft impotlible to come at any truth in political fubjefts; Notwithftanding the French head quarters are removed to Finkenftein, 12 German miles (go Fng• lifh) farther back than Oflerode (it lies on the like of Graudenz), no caufes whatever are aligned in the papers for this. Since yeflerday, indeed, reports have been fpread here of a molt  DESPERATE BATTLE, WHICH IS STATED TO HAVE LASTED FIVE DAYS,  and to have ended greatly to the difadvantage of the French. But we have no means to trace the authen_ city of it ; and, perhaps, the fimple circumßance of the retrograde motion of the head quarters may be the only foundation of it.  " Other reports of the railing the liege of Dantzic, of the taking of Stettin by the Swedes, &c. remain equally unconfirmed, though Rill boldly affirmed, particularly the latter. It teems certain that the Swedes were at Prenzlow nn the 7th. All the Ha• neverian Minifters now leave the Electorate. Perhaps this has given rife to the allertion that Hanover is to be organized as a French Province, as a previous Rep to ordering a levy of zo,ooo men. " The laft letters from Koningfberg Rate the fituation of the armies to be Rill the fame. The want of all neceffaries was felt more and more; but fupplits were expeEted from different ports of the Baltic. In Dantzic alfo, provifions were very dear. The force of the combined Ruffian and Pruffian armies is Rated at ao,ooo men, and the garrifon of Dantzic at 25,000. " The Telegraph contains many letters,dated from Conftantinople, from Aleppo, &e. giving accounts of the hoßile proceedings in Turkey and Perfia, againtl the Ruffians and Englifh ; but there is great rcafon to fufpeit them as forgeries. Even the official report which 1 fent yon in my laft, of the events at Conflantinople, I have now pretty good reafon to believe, wasmade hereby Martha' Brune and Secretary. I am told it was much more violent, but Bourienne foftened it. lam likewife informed they are now employed on a fimilar produCtion. " We cape& here General Dumoncean (perhaps he is already here, for his Aid•de•Camp arrived this i morning) from Bremen. It is fuppofed he will take the command here, and; that Marfhal Brune will go to the Grand Army. A letter (tom Bremen, which ' cam: this afternoon, fays Gen. Dumoncenu and his 1 flaff are gone from there ; 2000 Dutch troops that I arrived yeßerday received orders in the middle of the night, to march early in the morning to the Elbe. We have here hardly any troops at all. 1 "In Hamburgh are not many troops, but more  are expelled. •• Yeflerday a meeting of the citizens was called, the object was to deliberate upon the redeeming of the Engliflo property here, for a fum of money. It is whifpered that Marfhal B. defires to have the fingering of this money before his departure, and that befides, the French think it poflible that the Englifts may come and difappoint them. 44 They had demanded at firfi ten millions, but now only four ; and it is fuppofed that by a little delay, this will be much leflined : the Citizens have left the whole to the Senate. 44 The murder of the Pacha of Belgrade, with all the Janiffaries, their wives and children, by the Servians, while leaving the province under a Servian efcort, will, it is feared, be followed by that of the I Turks in all Scry ia."  The Houfe of Common., after fome debate, came to a determination laft night, upon the fubjed of the bribery and corruption with which the IA Eleflion for Pearhyn was difgraced. It was moved that Sir C. HAWKINS be now expelled the Houfe for the principal [hare which he had in thAfe prafticec ; but ' this motion was not agreed to, and the final determi nation was, that, in the &it inftance, Sir CHRISTOPHER, and 113 others, should be profecuted for the alledged offences.
