Pet rfburg with the Account of the captiiie
of the frigate Freya, i 3 this moment fretnrn
ed. Of the difpatch'es which it brought,
nothing is yet known ; but greater aftivity
and exertions in forwarding preparations
are observed. Four floating batterie6 of

this day all the measure-, of defence for our

Citadel they are now busied in throwing up
a battery on the weakefl part of the har
bour- The (Irong batteriie» on the road are
well mounted itid the guards releived every
day. For the works on the Holm, they
press the vagrants and a'l enrolled sailors
are take# out of the merchantmen, and sai
lors from different diftrifts are bro't hither
in waggons The city militia is exercifint;
and does duty on two «ity guards and each
citizen is obliged at all events to have 20
cartridge! in readiness.
Anothrtr letter from Copenhagen, of the
fame date, j6tb Augaft.
Although the preps ,tion* for de f ence be
come more serious every day, yet nothing
of a hostile nature hath hitherto happened
between "us and the Eng ilh. The mer
chants of this place as well as of Klfiueur,
having asked our governor as well as the
English whether the merchant vcflel* could
go out in f fely ? they got a fatisfactory
answer, and Admiral Dixon offered to give
pafTports to th;>fe veffds, which would wish
to depart from Elfinenr, and would fuffer
themielves to be examined.
Meanwhile, the English MinifUr here,
Lord Whitworth, has demanded a categori
cal answer to his proposals to oor Court in
a short time, and proposes to leave this city
on Friday with hit whole suit, the charge
d'Affaires, Drummond excepted.

We hear from the Dani/h dominions,
thit all th« regiments are likewise called in
from the Dutchies. The repiments at Slef
wig, it is said, are to ma> ch to Fonningen
and the neighbouring coast. From Eckern
F®tke and the troops march to
wards Glockftadt, to wh ch place more ar
tillery has been sent, and where the fortifica
tions are put into tbe bed order. In several
places on the coast, batteries are to be er
eftrd.
ELSINEUR, August z6.
We are yet in a total uncertainty whe
ther we (hall have peace or tsar with Eng
land. "On the 24th in the evening, the Da
nish ships of war weighed twice, in order to
go further into the harbour ; the English
immediately weighed likewise, and came to
an anchor where the others did It is said
again that a Ruffian fleet is arrived in the
road of Copenhagen- We ctpeft here fix
hundred men more. A number of men
which had been prefTed here, are this mo
ment transported to Copenhagen.
August -3
I.aft night at ten o'clock a cry was made
in the ttteets, that the F.n lifh had attempt
ed a landing between this and Hammers-
Muhlah. where an English frigate lays. -
Eve»7 body was alarmed. A boat had ac
tually approached the fhorc, but whether
they were Englifii or smugglers is not
known. The ChafTeurs fired on the boat
and it retired.
HAGUE, August 10.
The day before yesterday the report spread
already, that five English men of war, se
veral frigates and a great number of tranf
jiorts had appeared off Catfard the day be
fjre, but now had com* in light of the har
bour of FlyOiing. Yeflerday morning a
strong cannonade was heard off the mouth
of the Meuze, aud in the evening, infor
mation was received* that the English at
break of day had attempted a landing 011 sea
land, and on the fide of the Rriel, and
aftually had put a number of troops on fiat
bottomed boats, but that Adjutant Gene
ral Charrier having marched rapidly towards
the place of landing with a party of the Ba
tavian troops, the Englilh were forced to
re-emWk. Qu both fides ten men were
killed in this affair. The intention of the
English to get poffeflion of a Batavian (hip
of the line, which lay there, wes also fruf
tested-
FRANKFORT, August 26.
A new circumstance which is mentioned |
from Mentz proves but too certain that the
Consul, whatever may be the issue of the
piefent negocialioo, looks upon the! incer
poraiion of Belgium and the left batik of the
Rhine with France as unalterable, therefore
thefc beautiful provinces mud be looked up
on as unavoidably 101 lto the German Em
pire and the house of A uftria. An order
fjgned by Buonaparte and Councellor
Lacue, arrived at the D-iieftor of Domains,
Goyan's, declares the intention of Firft
Corifnl to build a Hospital of Invalids in the :
neighbourhood of the City of Mentz,
another near Brussels and a third near Lyons
or Atignon. He will appropriate to these
inftiiuiions S or 10 millions of National
domains and has dire&ed iht citizen Goyon
of Mentz to make aftaiement of the Na
tional. domains in ihc department of Doa- ;
nerfberg which may be applied for that
purpose and transmit the fame together
with a report oil several other points, at
fartheft on the 22d September, each of
of these three new institutions is calcu
lated for 2000 invalids, so that besides the
principle in Paris containing
4000 the First Consul will provide for
1 e.OOO invalids.
From the unfortunate Swabia, whole
troops of irapoverifhed inhabitants emigrate
to more peaceable countries ; they are to
tally unable to give the French foldiera
Quartered upon nheni the least fultenance.

Extract of Inters from Ttrtola, received by
tbt Hannah, arrived bere yesterday.
" Tortola, September 17.
" Dejr SJK,
" The seizure and detention of the bar
que Galen, Thomas Afliby, matter, of Sa
lem, and cargo, has no doubt made some
noit'e in America, I therefore, as it is a
matter of considerable importance, fend you
Judjje Robinson's Rofors at large upon
making his decree for further proof, not on
account »f tbe trade be bad been carrying on,
but very evident erasures in the l»ver<!
clearances, wh ch giv-s r-.-af mi to sup
pose the Revenue was defrauded, by the du
ties not being paid on the whole of the car
go. These err.fares were in the word <• twen
ty-five."' It appears that capt. Afliby clear
ed out, and paid duties at Trinidad upon
" twenty-five hogsheads of sugar only, where
as he had actually 011 board " seventy-Jive" }
and after leaving the port of Trinidad for
America, by erafmg the top of the letter
" T," and converting the firft stroke of the
letter "w," in the word " Twenty" into an
•' o," altered the Clearance of twenty-Jive
hog flu-ads of sugar into that of seventy-Jive.
Bemgmet at sea by the British frigate Se
vern, capt. Whitby, his papers were exa
mined, and 'hr fraud evidently dete&ed ;
he was accordingly sent in here for adjudi
cation."
Another letter of fame date, in mention
ing this scandalous tranfa<f\ion, observes j—
(1 I am happy in informing you, that the
Galen would have, been acquitted, as to the
trade (he had been carrying on, the Judge
' thinking the trade at preferit indulged at
Trinidad a just and politic meafuie, and
which the Governor no dcubt wis ajthqrifed
to allow."
This letter, after {Vating the fame rea
sons for her detention, as are mentioned
above, adds" The jud 3 e therefore or
dered further proof«*s to those matters, and
Commissioners bate been appointed at T'i
nid.d to examine evidence thereon. By the
captain's not proceeding to Trinidad to ha
ft.-n the evidence, and to clear up this busi
ness, I very much fufpeft that it will ap
pear, that the erasures roust have been made
:,y the captain, if so, the loss of velTel and
cargo will be the consequence."
We have been furniChed with the
whole Proceedings of the Admiralty of
Tortola, in the cafe of the Galen, but which
on account of their length muftbe deferred
till Thursday.
