The week has been barren of intelligence from the Seat of War, but the French Papels received have brought very agreeable information. In the first instance, their silence respecting what is rassing in the North, furnishes' proof amounting to demonstration, that the Rtksians have experi enced no reverse, and the absence of any expression even of hope that they would be arrested in their career, proves that BONAPARTE has not yet the means of opposing to them any force of importance. It is highly probable that adverse winds have alone withheld intelligence of the most gratifying nature. The wind is now fair for arrivals from the North, and we confidently anticipate new and important successes will be communicated in a few days, if not in a few hours, by the Gottenhurgh Mails which are due, .a Irl , f c i i , i I it. ~ `.
