Aviiich was • secured by that victory, may, at first sight, appear a reward inadequate to the gallantry of its heroic defenders ; but we are convinced that this achievement wilhhave -the most beneficial influ ence on the cameaign• which • is shortly to begin in the Baltic. It is well known that the Emperor ALINANDER is wavering...in his Councik '; he is even said to have manifested his intention to observe a strict neutrality, and to open his ports to the ships of all- nations, the English not excepted ; which, according to BUO/sTAI!ARTE'S policy, is tantamount to a declaration of war. On the other hand, the Swedes begin to feel the state of degradation into which they have sunk by submitting to a BrItNA poTTE, who feels uneasy himself on his usurped throne, . amidst a fickle and revengeful people.— The mariners dragged from their Northern shores to man the last fleet which Europe can arm against England during the present contest, have evinced a refractory, and even a mutinous spirit. The Hanse `Towns, and the North of Germany hi general, have also manifested a disposition to zesistance, to which the Despot has been, unaccustomed in that part of the world. It was therefore important for BUONA PARTEAO strike a blow in the Baltic, either by him self or through the agency of some of his subser: vient vassals, Sin order to repress the growing spirit of opposition to his schemes, previous to the arrival of a British fleet hi the Sound. The possession of Anholt would, besides, have impeded the passage of the British fleet into the Baltic ; it would have afforded additional means of annoyance against the British trade, and would have facilitated the con veyance of Norwegian and Swedish sailors across the Sound to the ports of Denmark, from whence they are to be conveyed to Antwerp. .All these ob jects have, however, been defeated by the gallantry of a small band of British Marines; and we feel con fident that the appearance of Sir . 411 IFS SAuMA REZ will now greatly change the aspect of affairs in the North, and create a most powerful diversion in favour of Spain, by forcing*,BUO!jAPARTE to employ on the shores of the Baltic a great part of his dispos able forces. • AMERICA.

"WASHINGTON, MARCH I::.—Congress have risen without ordering a Summer Session, The President was desirous of having one. That subject is now under consideration at the Palace. It is expected that Congress will be c,w:ened by the President. Much, however, will depend on the stilt advice* from Europe." - A letter from Paris, dated April (3, says. Count - LatmisroN, Ambassador to the Emperor of RUSSIA. received to-day. his audience of leave, and set og for Petersthurgh. Articles from Berlin, state that the,Dukc of OL. DENBCRCH hid set out. for Petersburgh, and that . the King of PRUSSIA was about to set out to review his /troops. Letters from Constantinople, received by the Malta Mail, state, that. the Russian Negociator, I rALINSKI, arrived at Bucharest on the 14th of December. It was, :thought that the differences between the two Powers might soon he adjusted. It is said that BoNAPAturE has recalled the French Guards from Spain, and they are furth-with to re turn to France. The Regent cl Sweden (-13EnNAnor - m) has com menced his Government with energy. 0, ders have been issued for the immediate equipment of all the gun-boats ; and a strong detachment of sai lors and artillerymen had arrived at Gottenburg on the 15th nit. to serve on board them. The appre hension of a war with Denmark is the cause as-, signed for these preparations ; but the fear of a visit from the .Engli.-h fleet that wi I shortly sail for the Baltic, is perhaps the true ground. • The . Magnificent, 74, and several other ships of war, have taken and. destroyed '27 sail of vessels, from 100 to 120 tons each, laden with warlike stores from Ancona, bound to Corfu three of tliein arrived at Malta the 11th of February.
