Something more than drinking of the waters is expected to be the consequence of his Prussian Majesty's sudden journey to Pyrmont at this season; and probably by the resolutions taken by this monarch, and the real destination of the Russian troops, may yet in a great measure depend the turn of affairs in the campaign that is now begun. Several letters from Holland insinuate that a very few days will now absolutely reveal the secret of the negotiations that have been so long carrying on, and may probably suspend the operations of war on that side. But perhaps a great deal may yet depend upon the arrival of succours to the allied army, and Count Bathiani's being able to maintain his ground in his present strong camp.
