\ 1 I 4 as Saxony is neuter,,/ was probably the whole intention." Datch papers to th* 3d are received, but do not bri&g down the Military op-rations further than the 30th alt. At this time, Bo- r. .parte had his head-quarters at Halle ; and the divisions of Ney, Soult and Marat, ha- ving formed a junction, had arrived at Mag- deburg, for the purpose of attacking the part of the Prussian army which had already fallen back on that fortress ; in which ob- ject it was disappointed, the Prussians having jwevfouily withdrawn beyond the Oder. One of the minor Paris papers of the tr.-enty-seveuth, states, that the 14th bulle- tin had arrived at Paris ; that ...j king of Prussia was wounded, and that he emperor Napoleon Was at Berlin ; but a .he Moni- ' teurs of the 29th do not notics it, vye pre- sume it is not true. A letter from Hamburg, dated October 31, says, '>0u the 39th instant, his majesty's consul gave orders for the British captains in port, to hold themselves in readiness to, depart at 12 hours notice. Stocks, 8 per cent. Cons, 6113-48. Om- nium, 3 8-4 prem. Falmouth, Nov. 3. General Craufurd arrived here (at Wynne's hotel) this morning, to take.the command of the expedition. The regiments com- posing the force now embarked here are the following, yiz :— The 5th Dragoon guards (or Carabineers) two squadrons, commanded by col. King- ton. 9th Light Dragoons, col. Mahorio 5th Foot, col. Davie. 36th Foot, col. Burne. 45th Foot, col. Guard. 88th Foot, col. Duff. 95th Foot, Major M'Leon. The fleet will bail the moment the wind •will admit of their getting'out of the Roads. It has been unfavorable for some days, but 13 now North Westerly. Some ammuniti- on is expected from. Plymouth, for the ships of war, and some of the transports which is hourly expected. Four 74 gun ships, with the Nereide frigate, and probably another, it is tho't, will constitute the naval force of the expedition. In the Spencer, 74 guns, capt. Stopford is the Senior officer of the fleet. Nothing can exceed the sa- tisfaction evinced by all ranks in the ap- pointment of general Craufurd to the com- mand of the expedition. It was that officer's intention, on his first arrival here, to per- sonally visit every transport, in order to sa- tisfy himself regarding the comfortable si- tuation of.the troops on board ; but the un- favourableness of the weather prevented the possibility of his putting this intention in execution. The wants of every vessel, however, he has ordered to be supplied, snd the fleet will sail completely with every thing that can render the troops comfortable for a long voyage. Berlin, Oct. 24. To-day, at noon, the French entered this city. They are commanded by general Huli'n. "" General Davoust has his head quarters at Potsdam. Gen. Hulin who commanded here, was last year French commandant at Vienna. NtlREMBL'KG, Oct. 23. According to the last advices, tield mar- shal Mcllendorf is dead of his wounds. Dresden, Oct. 26. Several houses have beed burnt at Jena, & the greatest excesses committed there for three dyas. Weimar, Gera, Naumberg, and several'places in the Saxon territory, have suffered much. All Austrian merchants have been permit- ted to depart from Leipsic, \yith their mer- chandize. Qsnaburg, Oct. 26. This morning, general Grand-jean took possession of tlie principality of Osnaburg, in the name of- his majesty the king of Hol- land. Four thousand Dutch troops are ex- pected to-morrow. ' i Stettin, Oct. 34. We are informed a sharp engagement took ' place yesterday, near Neustadtoberwalde between the corps of prince Hohenlohe and the French. Fiench troops are expected to. arrive here to-day or to-morro\y, Alclam, Oct. 21. An action has taken place nearSemplin ; a cannonade was heard here to-day. Altoka,1 Oct. .31. On the 20th inst. the Bukes of Weimar and Brunswick-Qejs, passed the Elbe at Sau- das, near Harelberg with 30,QQO men. Hamburg, Oct. 31. The posts from Prussia and Austria have not yet arrived ; but we learn byr an estefet- te, that part of Murat's division entered Ber- lin onthe 24th. However disastrOusthe cam- paign may have been to Prussia, it is certain that several corps of their army have »ot been in action, and are now assembled on the other side of the Oder, particularly the . corps of prince Hoh»nlohe, the dukes of ~<\ Sax-Weimar, and Brunswick-Oels. Gen. Wartenskben is g >vernor of Mag- deburg, and commandant of that fortress, the garrison of which consists of I2,OOQ men ; but the works are said to require a much greater number of men for their de- fence, as the magazines are not supplied for a seige, apprehensions maj be entertained for its safety unless soon relieved. Devastation and cruelty mark the foot- steps of the French whereter they go :— Weimar was not only given up to the plun- der of a brutal and ferocious soldiery for two hours, but was afterwards set on fire, as were also Jena, Halfe and Naumburg. Jerome Bonaparte, it is said, will accom- pany the army destined t« act in Poland. BerlW, October 24. The emperor Napolcol, will to-morrow be at Sans Souci, and the next day at Ber- lin. WestphalU, October 29. The county of Lin-gen has been taken possession of. for the kihgfcf Holland, not by a natilitary force, hut byji letter from the Ernbden and Mt&defl have likewise beer., taken possession of by Dutch and French. troops. It is said that marshal Mcllendorf and. several other generals entreated.his Prussian majesty to give orders for attacking the French severs), days before the.battl- of the 14th, but in vain. He had however, come to a determination to engage 011 the 15th, in which he, was unfortunately anticipated on the 14th. Mecklenburg-Strelitz, Oct. 38. The Mark of Brandenburg is now the theatre of war. Prince Hohenlohes's head quarters were at Neustadt on the 25th, and on the 26th the duke of Brunswick Oels, passed the Elbe at Sandau, near Harelberg. We shall now see which of the two armies reach the Oder first, the Prussians or the French. } o. liege tl Pr h :¦! administration ; gles and othi Prussian arms, ki ii down by ;'neralMichaud, .Ian uniform uno longer to be Monster. All PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 31. Extract of a letter from tlx City of Washing- ton, to the editor of the True American, dated Dec. 37. "Sis, " I have received from a member of con- gress, the following interesting intelligence : " That he had just been informed by the secretary of war, that he had received in- formation of a recent date, from general Wilkinson ol an accommodation of all dif- ferences taking place on our frontiers, with the Spaniards, the result of which was, the actual return of our troops to the Mississip- pi, where gen. W. intended to remain, and observe future operations, none of which, however, were apprehended to be hostile. Mr. Burr's project might consequently re- ceive an additional stab towards its annihi- latipn.'.'i The parliament of Great-Britain was dis- solved on.the 24th of October, and writs for a new election of members issued, returna- ble on the 15th of Dectmber. Captain Hargood, oi the British ship Bel- lisle, in a letter to the secretary of the navy, dated oft the Capes of Virginia, Sept. 15, 1806, says—" That he burnt the French ship L'Impetueux, of 74 guns, after he had chased her on shore, and she had grouuded on our coast.'* No arrivals at this port yesterday.

FBIDAY, JANUARY?. jjy" Owing to the indisposition of the Carrier on the Point, some of our subscri- bers were not served till this morning. The Eastern Mail had not arrived, when this paper was put to press. Extract of a letter from our Correspondent, dated Washington, January 1, 1807. The following information has just been received by the editor of the Washington Federalist : " By a gentleman just arrived from Frankfort, and who was present when the giand jury examined the charges against Burr it appeared, from the testimony giv- en, that Mr. Burr was concerned in the pur- chase of 4.00,000 acres of land in Lousiana, nearly opposite the Natchez ; that the young and enterprising persons, who were to em- bark with him^ were to settle on the land —that each had a musket and was to act as .a soldier under Burr, against the Spaniards, provided the executive approved of it ; and that Mr. Jefferson was several months ago acquainted With Burr's intention. He fur- ther informs that the purchase of provisions to maintain the settlers, for one year, 3- mounted to 40,000 dollars ; and that the same sum was expended for agricultural im- plements. " Mr. Burr is daily expected here.' r " A dispatch this day arrived in great haste, from , the Missisippi Territory; but we have not learned the subject of it." John Wood, late editor of the Western World, has arrived here, for th» purpose, it is said, of establishing a paper. What his object may be, however, I know not. Captain Lewis, and the Indians who came with him on his return from the Pacific, were, it is said, at the president's levee to- day. , A letter received, dated London, Nov. 6th, states that the price of cotton'was fal- ling daily. The following singular article appears in the London Sun, of the 7th Nov. . " General Moreau passed through. Ham- burg on the 25th Oct. ; and we shall not be surprised to see this hero of Hohenlin- dcrt opposed to the hero of Marengo, on the banks of the Oder." The Franklin academy at Poughkeepsie with the books and every, other article which it contained, was destroyed by fire on the iyth ultimo. The ship Smallwood, Kearney, from Cork to this port, his put back to Cork, aftsr being at sea 31 days, in distress; where it is said she will be condemned. The ship Lexington, Fiost, hence, has arrived at Cork. 'Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Ex- uma, to another in Charleston, dated Oc- t&ber 30.

Among the foreign clearances at Boston, we observe the brig Littillar, for Buenos- Ayres. Sir Samuel Hood, K. B. is elected a. member of parliament for Westminster, to succeed the hon. Charles Fox, deceased. From the Theatre of War. The divisions of Ney, Soult and Murat having formed, a junction, had arrived at Magdeburg, to attack that part of the Prus- sian army, which had fallen back upon that fortress, in which object the French was dis- appointed, the Prussians having previously withdrawn, beyond the Oder. ' Part of Murat's division, commanded by general Hulin, entered Berlin on the 24th. Oznaburg and East Friezland, have been both taken possession of by the French, in the name of the king of Holland ; and Han- over will share the same fate—even Ham- burg is likely to be in the enemy's posses- sion ere long—for we find that such is the alarm there, that remittances to England, had already bsenmade by the merchants of that city, to a considerable amount ; k the exchange on London had fallen 2 per cent. The affrighted inhabitants of Germany are flocking from all quarters to Hamburgh and Ahona from whence they are expected to take shipping for England. The duke of Bruuswick, the venerable father of the princess of Wales, is among the number of the refugees. Bonaparte having insult- ingly rejected his proposals, relative to the neutrality of his territory, the wounded ve- teran has been conveyed on a litter to Alto- na, where he remained on the first instant. There has heen an unfounded report, that Bonapart had been shot by a student ot Halle or Jena. Hamburgh, Oct. 31.
