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." ----------- 'VIENNA, March afi.

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. FEDERAI7 GAZETT3 SATURDAY, JUNE 33. 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. Br. brig Clyde, from Jacme! for Baltimore- sent into Halifax, ijf condemned.
