Given ender my seal and signature, Dcc. 1. 1815. (Signed ) W. F. Pr. r►f ORANGI. By command of his Highness, (Signed) H. FAOLL• There are now daily arrivals from Holland. Two schuyts arrived yesterday, which left Scheveling on Thursday after noon. They have brought the information of Helvoetsluys and the Brill -being in possession of the Patriots. The for mer had a Prussian garrison, These schuyts have also brought a report of Flushing being in the possession of the Dutch. We shall be glad to find this true; but no such in telligence has reached ou. Government. It is certain, how ever, that General NIOLITOR. evacuated Utrecht on Sun day evening, having first withdrawn his outposts ftom Nieu ver Slurs. These troops retreated in the direction of Gorcum. On Nionday, a foraging party of about 600 French appeared at Weesp ; they were shortly driven out of the town, and retreated to Naarden, at which place the . main body was stationed. The same day General &yen ER (SOll of the celebrated General of that name) arrived at Utrecht, with 1500 men; and in the course of the evening Prince NAIITSCHKIN reached that place with 2000 Rus sians, consisting of infantry and cavalry. Certain in;ellikenec had 'cached the Hague, on Tuesday, that 19,001+ of the Allies had reached the Yssel. They had taken Zutphen by storm, wiih as little loss as possible to the inhabitants.

It is expected that he will speedily receive a visit frnm OUT fleet, which, should he persist in his refusal to surrender, may at last compel him to prove faithless to the ‘. good cause" to which he has hitherto so pertinaciously adhered. We arc concerned to hear that about 150 young Gentle men, related to some of the first fa.nilies at the Hague, at the beginning of the last week formed themselves into a volunteer corps, and proceeded to Woerden, near Utrecht, of which place, in the absenee of the enemy, they took possession. Tile French suddenly returned, surprised them, and thirty of them only escaped ; the rest were either killed or wounded. The enemy having accomplished his purpose, precipately withdrew by the toad to Gorcum. The Prince of Orange was never till now Stadtholder in possession. His Serene Ilighness commanded the Dutch army in the two campaigns against the French, in one of which he was wounded; but it was his father who was reign. ing Stadtholder, whets the French obtained possession of the United Provinces, by passing over the ice in the winter of 179% The Dutch Papers received on TUesday state, that on the 22d ultimo, the two Patriotic Generali Baron Sweerts de Landas and General De Jough, established their respective head-quarters, the one at Rotterdam, the other at Leyden. Baron Sweerts immediately detached troops to Capell and Ysselmonde, and compelled the French, who had advanced to Dordrecht, to fall back on Goreum. General De Jough moved his troops to Alphen and Voerden on the road to Utrecht.—Energetic proclamations were daily issuing from the press.—The National guards had changed their appellation into Orange Guards, and the Dutch Jour.• nalists affirm, that 100,000 patriots will, ere long, march to drive the satellites of the Usurper far from their soil. The Russian General W'inzingcrode, who, on entering the Dutch territory, had issued a proclamation, calling on the inha bitants to support the good cause, proceeded along the banks of the Yssel by Zwoll, Deventer, and Zupthen, and thence marched to Amersfort, where he was on the Q3d inst. and the next day Soo of his Cossacks entering the city of Amsterdam, joined the patriots in compelling the last remains of the French troops, who bad shut themselves up in the Old Town House, to surrender ; after which they proceed6d to the fort at the entrance of the Haerlemer Meer, of which they took possession by capitulation. The approach of the Allied Armies, and the expected arrival of the British fleet and troops, removed all hesitation on the part of the patriots of whom no fewer than 100,000 volunteered to march against the enemy in the course of the day. The Dutch papers' also contain the highly interesting fact, that SWITZERLAND HAD DECLARED ITSELF NEUTRAL. The Prince Regent's dinner to the Russian Deputation, on Friday, was on the most magnificent scale, coriespondin with the dignity of the British Court. His Royal Highness the Prince Regent received the company with his accustom ed dignified affability.- Covers were laid for about sixty. Besides the Russian Ambassador, General Balaschoff, and suite, there were preient the Royal Duke;, the Spaniih, Portuguese. and Neapolitan Envoys, the greater part of the Cabinet Ministers, the Great Officers of State, &c. &c. The Volunteers and Local Militia, in various parts of the country, have come forwa:ci and offered their services to perform garrison anti other duty in the room of those troops of the line and regular militia that may be withdrawn at the present moment, DEC. 5.
