The Official Journal contains the decree
adopted in the meeting of the senate, on

the 18th instant, directing the mode of levy- ! war> letters opened, axamined and politely
in^ tne conscription in the different depart- (Jjgrnijjed,
ments. The date of this decree shews that
110 event of importance had occurred before
that time. This is further evident from a
letter received last Sunday from the advanced
posts of the .Tiny, in which the writer says :
-._« For a month past we have been face to j
face with the enemy, and yet have remain- j
ed in perfect inactivity. The army is in 1
.good health. Our soldiers sul'.erid for a |
time from the dyss'entary, which repose and ]
wholesome food has now completely rempv- j
ed. Our brave men are daily returning from '
the hospitals. Our battalions increase in
Bomber*, and an soon as the roads are prac-
ticable, nothing will be able to impede the
flight Of our victorious eagles. Contagious
'fevers prevail among the Russian troops.
Thee diseases are occasioned by their re-
markable neglect, of ch-anlire-s. They
have missed their object. They smiled at
the disasters of the Prussians, not imagin-
ing that we should so soon come upon them.
But since they have found us opposed to
them, they have become convinced of the
impossibility of sending any assistance to
.Michelson, the Russianceipmander in Wal
Jachia, and the energy which the Turks
display is lik-dv to affoM tfiem some em-
ployment in ihat ¦quarter." The S per
, are 72 and 75 ; the bank stack at 1
iiVi.

The letters from Germany contain little
ne,;?. In one .of-them, however- dated the
Banks of the Danube, April ssr, it is stated
that ihc Russians had attempterj a decent on

ven b :ck with considerable loss. Mention
is aiso made of a rnisuniiprstanding said to
have arisen amont; the principal officers of
EirgKjh fleet in-trje Archipelago, and in
particular between admiral Duckworth and
the rear admirals sit Sidney Sin it a arid Louis.
The two latter, K is s.id, have formally ac-
cused the convniantlsr in chief to their go-
vernment, charging him with having dis-
honored the British name before,Constanti-
nople, and by his inconsiderate conduct pro-
voked a rupture with the Porte. High
words have also pissed between the admiral
and the British ambassador Arbuthnot.

Dramatic Intelligence.
The Drama under rehearsal at the Rich-
mond Theatre, first reputed to be a Farce,
is now said to be one of the new species of
Melo Drama.
The arrival of Mr. Wilkinson, a performer
of long standing, has excited much cuiiosi-
ty- the managers are sure of full houses for
some time to come.
The engagement of Mr. Martin, from the
Theatre at Baltimore, appears to have-been
made upon a supposition that the taste of
the Richmond audience was for Lew Comedy
—from the reception of this actor, it appear!
that there was borne mistake .in this affair.
[Argus%
A London paper, on the subject of the affair
«tCon«tautinople, remarks :
"The French .have published only part of
the correspondence ; much that was materia)
they have suppress,.' ; that which tluy nave
not siii pressed, they have no doubt garbled and
mutilated, & practice so usual with them that
it would be infinitely rviore astonishing to I'm :
them sustaining from than adopting it We
will not, therefore, .upon French authority, be
ii-jve that aftei; the vigorous and determined
language held by our admiral, he retired and
repassed the Dardanelles wulbout attempting
or doing any .tiling"

Tot/re Editor of the fiedrralGazette.
Sir—It is pleasing for the peaeable citizen
of this highly favoured country, that he is
placed at a happy distance from the blood-
stained fields of Europe, where the roar of
cannon, and the consequent distress, form
so powerful an obstacle to the tranquil me-
ditations of a christian spirit.
Amidst the din of war, which convulses
the other quarters of the giobe, America,
with a steady pace, rises to • aids the proud
eminence of wealth and happiness. But
there appears to my view yet one thing
wanting in the catai >guc of our pursuits—
high cultivation of the liberal arts. While
our system of government is superior to all
competition ; in this day, when the spirited
enterprize of our successful mercantile fel-
low-citizens draws such immense wealth to
the individual and the national treasuries ;
and while our ships glide gaily o'er the
most distant seas, America is almost un-
known in the school of arts-; the brightest
genuises amongst her sons arc compelled to
seek a foreign patronage, and to lodge the
choicest fruits of their exalted talents in un-
known and strange climes.
Do not misunderstand me, sir ; I am not
about to join in the ungracious attempt to
stigmatize my dear Columbia, as hostile to
the arts. 1 will not call her soiis Vandals,
nor denounce this territory as a c Id Siberia,
where the best plants sicken and die. No ;
I value the intelligence of her citizens at a
higer rate, and I esteem her climate and
her soil, as of a kinder nature. Yet permit
me, sir, to say, that our progress in refine-
ment is not so great as the unparalleled ad-
vances which we have made to luxury and to
wealth.
I have witnessed, with no small confusi-
on and regret, the unsuccessful attempt of a
respectable Artist, to attract even a small
share of that patronage and admiration
which his talents eminently merit. The
'Paintings of mr. GROOrtIBRIDGE,-in
vain were they exhibited to public and for
private examination, while the sensibility of
this gentleman was wounded by neglect, &
his works valued only tor their frames,or ad-
mired as six penny Pictures. Mr. G.. has
the mournful consolation to witness the
handsome compliment paid him by a litera-
ry friend* (in the last '• Observer") and the
mortification of being compelled to with-
draw his Paintings. An American.
* From the last Observer.—" Real connois-
sieurs in the art of painting will say, that
Mr. Groombiidge views nature with an ar
tists' eye ; I ut he is familiar with good
schools ; that he has a great deal of facility ;
and t..at to produce paintings really fine, he
needs only to meet with persons sufficiently
generous and discerning, to indemnify him
for the time and expefi.ee the necessary stu-
dies would cost him."
From the Borders of the Elbe, April 27.
The seige of Colbt-rg, raised by the diver-
sion made by the Swedes from Stralsund, is
now pushed with greater vigor than be Tore.
The Russian courier, who has brought se-
veral tails to Memel, taken from the Otto-
man troops, says that the Turks lost 4000
men in the last battle, when these trophies
were taken, and that the Russians were with
in 40 miles of Constantinople. .
ijtmel, April 14.
His imperial majesty attends to the labors
of the cabinet with uninterrupted assiduity.
Notwithstanding the fatigue of his journey
was very great, owing to the badness of the
roads and the weather, on the morning after
his arrival, his majesty was up at 5, and sat
down to write ; this is his daily custom.
M. de Hardenberg is the only minister
who accompanied the two sovereigns to
Georgenberg. This esteemed cabinet minis-
ter received a private visit from the emperor,
who staid with him two hours and a half.
A Russian courier arrived here on the
nth; he was the bearer of eleven tails (or
Turkish standards) taken from the Turks
in an engagement, in which the Russians
gained the victory.
The reinforcement which is arrived with
the Grand Duke Constautine, consists of
thirty-two battalions, twenty-seven squad-
rons, and ninety two pieces of heavy ord-
nance. It is to be followed immediately by
thirteen battalions ; a corps de reserve of 60
or 70,000 nun is also on its march. The
voluntary contributions for carrying on the
war already amounted, according to the last
accounts, to forty-two millions six hundred
thousand roubles, and the lists from the dis-
tant provinces were not then come in.
Bonaparte has removed his head-quarters
still fuither back, to Rosenberg, two leagues
from Marienwerder.
Hamburg, April 18.
This day .or to-morrow we expect marshal
Rrune to arrive here from Katzeburg ; and,
8000 Dutch troops are on their way hither
from Potnerania. The French, uncertain of
their success, have prudently thrown two
bridges over the Elbe and Arttenburg. Their
fear of a Rritish expedition is unabated, and
as great as ever; and, in fact, there never
was a more favorable opportunity for a Bri-
tish force appearing on the continent than
the present one, which, if not profited by,
will perhaps never oiler again.
Intelligence of a great decisive battle in
Prussia is expected here every hour ; the
greatest preparations, it is understood, are
jo-iking for it, and. the forces which will
.meet in this terrible conflict, will, it is said,
amount to not much less than six hundred
thousand men,
