European Intelligence
Received by the brig Harmony, Capt. Tucker, arrived here in 54 days from Liverpool; and by the ship Pigou, Capt. Sinclair, arrived at Philadelphia in 47 days from Liverpool.
DUSSELDORF. June 11.
The misunderstanding between the Cabinets of Vienna and Berlin becomes daily more and more manifest. Count Clairfayt has just declared to General Mollendorf, that he will not respect the limits traced in the treaty of peace between France and Prussia, and that he will carry the war wherever circumstances may require.
In the Prussian army, they talk openly of an approaching war between Prussia and Russia. It is even confidently said, that Sweden, Denmark and the Porte, will unite with the former, so as effectually to oppose the devouring ambition of the Court of Petersburg.
It is certain that Catherine has replied very coldly, and in a manner that sufficiently expresses her discontent, to the notification made to her by Prussia of the peace just concluded with the French Republic.
