Extract of a letter from J. M. Forbes, A-
merican consul at Hamburg, to a commercial
bouse of the fast respectability in this city,
dated
. Hamburg, April 6, 1807.
" I have now to add the agreeable news
that the navigation of the coast, from Ton-
ningen here is permitted by the English,
and hopes are entertained that in a short
time we shall.have a modification of our
blockade by the English, which will permit
neutral vessels .coming from neutral places
so enter this river, except such as may be
;,.:!en with provisions and other articles ne.
cessary for the French armies. The present
times are difficult, but the general consolati-
on is, that the crisis is past, and we hope
things are on the mending hand. A regu-
iaiion has been made by Marshal Brune,
h/ing foreign trade, and promising pro-
tection to neutrals ; such as airived from tha
•."United States, will nut he subject even to
the .ieVtasfomed" visits !)y the French' eoflftnt, '
I and unless they have touched in England
will oe admitted to an unmolested entry.
It is said, that already licmees are freely
granted by the English government for neu-
tral vessels laden with colonial produce to
enter the river and proceed as far as Giuck-
stadt." -----------

BAMBERG, April 10.
Direct information from the French head-
quarters, dated Posen, 21st March, confirms
from an unquesti >nable source, the previous
rumors respecting overtures making between
the belligerent forces, aud further states, that
a continental peace will without doubt be
the result.

P niS, April 10.
By an Imperial decree of the 20th March,
the establishment of five legions of reserve,
for the interior and for the protection of the i
frontiers and the sea coast, is ordered. Each
legion is to consist of five battalions, each
battalion of eight companies, and each com-
pany of one hundred and sixty men. Each
legion is to be commanded by a senator, and
receives but one standard ov eagle ; their
uniform is to be the same as that of the
troops of the line.
The first regiment meet at Lisle, the 2d
at Mentz, the 8d.aiiSerines, the itix at Ver-
sailles, and the 3th at On ni
By two Imperial decrees the fortifications
of Brest and Antwerp, have been declared
in a state of siege, and the senator Abbe-
ville, has been appointed governor of Brest,
and the senator Ferir.o, governor of Ant-
werp ; both have* tire command of the sea
and land troops, and likewise of the nation-
al guards, and they have exclusively the di-
ed the police of the city where they
command.
The inspector general ofthe military hos-
pitals, Mr. Desgenetier, has received orders
to go to the grand arm)'.
The Hamburg papers contain a great num-
ber of a ' rii ements of the largest houses,
country seats, gardens, he. in and about
Hamburg, which confirms the verbal ac
counts we have had 01 the total stagnation
of trade of that great emporium.
April 13.
For seme days past the politcal horizon
has brightened. The catastrophe with which
the Ottoman empire seemed threatened is no
more to be feared. The appears
E lgli^h has only served to reveal to it its
resources, and to awaken its er;er,iy. It
seeins-as if they had come under the walls
of Constantinople, merely for the purpose
of letting Hussia, their ally, be acquainted
with the dispositions of the Turkish people
for reconquering their independence.
Until now the temerity of the ambassador
and English admiral has already had a most
fatal result for the interest of their nation.
Tliey have changed the influence which the
French owed to the glory of then-sovereign,
and of their arms, into a frank alliance, in-
dissoluble and superior to all religious preju-
dices, which had prevented the Turks from
fighting under the same banners with the
French. Th'S alliance, rendering the na-
tural valor of the Ottomans useful, gives to
that great body the soul which it wanted :
It is the greatest victory France could obtain
at this moment for the salvation of Europe.
The first result is depriving England, as it
were by the drag of a fishing'-nct, of the
immense commerce which it made almost
exclusively in the possessions of the Grand
Seignior. The second effect of rhis aggres-
sion is the forming between Persia, Turkey
and France a militar) line of operations di-
rected against their common enemies, from
. the extremities of Europe to the centre of
Asia.
COPENHAGEN, April 14.
Our mercantile paper gives, this day, the
folk.wing information.4 " Whereas several
persons in the mercantile line have suffered
considerable losses by suffering agreements
to he made, in their name, with captors of
really neutral vessels and cargoes, for the
payment of the expences of the captors for
carrying them in ; it is supposed necessary to
publish the following, in order to prove
that if a due course of law is taken, a better
decision may be obtained—The ship Afri-
canian, of Altona, commanded by captain
Seeman, was last year, on her voyage-
from Acoa to Frederickstadt, detained by
the English privateer Hero, captain Aaron
Goorl Giisivelf. As the ship's papers, as
well as the declaration of the ship's crew,
irrefrBgibly established the neutrality of the
ship and cargo, the captor offered to eiesist
from the suit, the captain paying his costs.
The owner insisted on his part on the re-
covery of damages sustained by bringing in
said vessel, and his further expences ; and
notwithstanding his attorney (an English-
man) advised him to close with the propo-
sal of the captor, he nevertheless adhered to
his determination, that the matter should be
decided by the court. The result was, that
the judge 01 the court of vice-admiralty, sir
William Scott, on the 5th February, con-
demned the captor to the payment of all
damages and expences, occasioned by this
unjust detention."
LOWER ELiifi, ipril 20.
By the latest accounts from Konigsberg,
the army was still stationed there ; the
scarcity of provisions became more percept-
ible, but they were in expectation of re-
ceiving a supply from some of the ports iii
the Baltic. In Dantzic, provision is also ve-
ry dear.

sent into Halifax, ijf condemned.
A Portuguese frijratff, with 3a"0 men on
