They bring us nothing but con tradicti ry accounts of the progress of the ne- gotiation between Austria and France. Whe- ther war or peace will be the result can'here- fore as yet be only conjectured from external appearance. Some unexpected obstacles have however arisen to stop the rapid career of Bo^ naparte, who has now suffered two months to ' elapse since, the armistice, w ithout the conclu- ; sion of a pacific arrangement. The noble stand made by ti e brave Tyrolean mountai- neers continues still to exhaiist the rescources of their French and Bavarian oppressors, fiome accounts slate Ihe loss of the French and allied troops under the Duke of Dantzic, in the late battle nf. ar Inspruck, to have been , • very great, 9,000 are said to have been taken ; <> r cut oil! The Tyroleans are so animated by ' their success in driving the enemy from their, territory, that in their turn they threaten to' invade Bavaria; and the French find it neces- sary to concentrate all their strength in the neighbourhood of Munich The French seem ' to despair of reducing the country before the winter shall compel the mountaineers to quit their precipices coveifed with SHOW, aud to de- , tcend into the vallies. i beveral promotions have taken place in the Austrian army, and ( < unt ] V1 ettermch has been nominated prime Minister. 1 he pro- motions are in favour of persons supposed dis- inclined to peace. Yesterday, a Gottenburgh Mail arrived • with letters to the 9th in: t. The only Swe- dish intelligence respects the retreat of the Russians from West Bothnia, which appears to have arisen from the want of provisions. 1 lie King of Saxony has been ordered by Bonaparte to rust. cute himself at Warsaw. It may be remembered, this Monarch refused his daughter to the profligate Jerome ; he is - likewise a pious Catholic ; and it is said the Hixcommunication of Bonaparte by thfe Pope has made a strong impression on his hiind; be that as it may, the King of Saxony has taken a final leave of Dresden, and may be considered, like the late King of Sweden, as dethroned! At a late hour on Thursday night, Lord j Filzroy Somerset left town for Plymouth, to ! embark ill a fast- sailing Vessel for Lisbon, t\ ith dispatches for Lord Wellington. An crder reached Portsmouth on Friday, that the whole of the coppered bottom trans- ports that were assembled at Spithead, Should proceed vvil h the Ajax man of war ( who takes convoy to the Mediterranean) to Lisbon • hence it is inferred that our troops are on their return from the Penensula; but it is possible, however, that this measure is not yet abso- lutely determined en; butmerely contempla- ted as a possible contingency, for which ade- quate provision ought to be made. Considerable reinforcements are going out to all the British Re giments in Portugal— eni- fcai kations of men and stores have been going on ai Portsmouth for these two days. The drafts are principally tor the Guards, the Roy- al Fuzileers, 45th, 48th, 87th, and 88th re- giments. A great number of officers, among the rest, Colonel Darroch, are going out. After much indecision the Spanish Govern- ment have condemned all the Danish ships detained in their ports, in resentment tor the detentiew oi the Spanish regiments in Zealand, When Romana escaped. Admiral Sir R. Keats, in the Superb, of 74 guns, with the Venerable, Powerful, Agn- court, Sceptre, Ganges, Valiant, Monmouth, Nymphe, Kangaroo, Thalia, and several transp irts, arrived at Deal on Thursday even- ing lrom the Scheldt, bringing with them about 5000 troops. When this squadron sailed, the French troops in the neighbourhood had in- creased in number considerably, and their flotilla of gun boats, & c. to the amount of near 200 sail, Vere coming down the River again, with an intention, as was supposed, of com- mencing offensive operations against the Island of Walcheren. rI he Medical Staff employed on the late Expedition being inadequate to the attendance required, several Surgeons, & c. belonging to the Militia have been called in to assist them. East Indies.— We are happy to learn by the ship Carmarthen, which left Bombay the 18th of April last, that peace pervades every part of our possessions in the East. The war with Travancore has been terminated, the Rajah having agreed to accept the terms offered by the Madras Government. The Minister who has been the cause of this war commencing, immediately on the news of hostilities ceasing, quitted with haste the Travancore dominions, conscious he must meet with, degradation if not punishment. ' 1 hat ambitious Chietj Holkar, we hear, has it not in his power to disturb the tranquility of his neighbours, his troops having inutined for want of pay. The Jubilee.— A Common Council was held on Friday, for the purpose of considering the propri- ety < f celebrating on the 25th ol Ociolier next, the Anniversary of the Accession of our Gracious Sove- reign to the T htone. rl he Lord Mayor took ihe Chair st twelve o'clock. Sir W. Curtis opened the business of the meeting in a neat speech, ar, d was sicwided by Mr. Aide: man SchoJey. Mr, Waithmar. opposed ihe motion ; he took a brief, review of the critical situation of the country, ad- verted to the severity with which the public bur- thens were felt by all classes of people, insisted that the present ntotion was an artifice of Ministers to draw the public attention from our late miscarriages, and concluded with proposing an amendment, which, however, he did not press. Messrs. Dixon, Jacks, Mawinan, Smith, See. supported the mo- tion, which was finally carried with scarcely any opposition. The corporation of Dublin have determined on a plan of celebrating the Juliilee on the 25th of Oc » tober next, according to which they are to attend Cnriit Church in state, and to have a grand dinner afterwards in the Rotunda. A grand fire work to be displayed in Stephen's- green, and the Citizens to be called upm to manifest iheir ioyalty by illu- minations. bonfires aud transparencies. A sub- scription is also to be opened for the purpose of erectint; an equestrian Statue of his Majesty. A TURNPIKE NOTICE.

No exceptions are to be allowed, but those who have regular certificates of illness. The Gazette also contains the particulars of t- he capture of the French frigate La Fwieuse. Government received yesterday dispatch- es from the United States, containing, as we are tola, the project of a Treaty between the Republic and France. From private letters, however, it seems as if matters have not pro- ceeded so far as this information presupposes ; but sufficient has occurred to awaken the at- tention of Government, t'o the attempts of France to restore its amicable relations with America, to . the exclusion of the intercourse with this country. The ship Syren left France for Antpnca, and arrived there on the 7th uft. and th<" impression on the disclosure of the contents of her dispatches appeared to be ve- ry unla\ durable to any friendly arrangement between the two countries. Two days subse- quent, the Mentor, also from Fiance, reach- ed New York, vvitn fresh and unexpected pro- posals from that Government. Letters which, before the 9tii of August, indicated hostilities belWteri the Republic and France, from that period assumed a dilierent tone ; and one Week posterior to the arrival of the Mentor, the \ Yasp sloop of war took its departure for Eu- rope, with instructions to the sou of the late President Adams, to negociate at Paris lor the revocation Of the offensive decrees of Napo- leon. We now learn, that the'neptiew of the American Secretary, Mr. Robert Smith, ac- companies this Gentleman ; uud that Gene- ral Armstrong has ieft Holland to resume his legatorial functions at Pans. ' 1 his morning were received Spanish and Portuguese Papers tb tile dates of September 4 ana 8. It appears from these Papers, that every t- xeri on is making to put the armies in such a situation, as may enable them, in both countries, to maintain their groundj if not to resume offensive operations The panic which prevailed, in consequence of the late retreat of the bntish, is said to have subsided ; but we do not learn that they have yet taken an advanced position. Of the progress of the retreat, these Papers take little notice. Portsmouth letters of Ihursuay give a me- lancholy account, which we hope will pr « ve exaggerated, of the Jamaica homeward- bound fleet. The master of a vessel from the West Indies arrived at Portsmouth, reports that the fleet had encountered a dreadful hurricane, in which tne 74 gun ship which convoyed them, and several ol the merchant vessels had foun < lered, aud a gieat number were much da- maged. Mr. Wardle, after all the protestations of his innocence and solemn appeals to heaven, has aban- doned ills cliaige ot petjury against Mrs. Clarke; hut, in order IO kee^ up tne farce a little longer, this anh quack no A amuses us vvi h promise oi pre- ferring a bib for a conspiracy- against his late God dess j Reason ana . netwo Wrights. >< 4 .

A Dispatch of which the following is a Copy, was on the 3utlmlt. received at the Office of Lord Viscount Castlereagh, from Li* ot. Gen. l ord Viscount Wellington, dated Deleytosa, August 8, 180 9. Deleytosa, Aug. 8, 1809. My LORD, T apprized your Lord, hip on the 1st instant, of the advance of a French corps towards the Puerto de Banos, and of the probable embarrassments to the operations of the army, which its arrival at Plasencia would occasion : and these embarrass- fnents having since existed to a degree so consider- able as to oblige us to fall back, and to take up a defensive position on the Tagus, 1 am induced to trouble vou mote at length with an account of what has passed upon th s subject. Wnen [ entered Spain, I hid a communication with Gen. Cuesta, through Sir H Wilson and Col. F. oche. respecting the occupation of the Puerto de Banos and ' he Puerto de Perales, the former of Which it was ai last settled, should be held by a Corps to be formed under tie Ma> quis de la lieyna, to consist of two battalions from Gen. Cuesta'i army, and two from Bejar, and that the Puerto de Per ales was to be taken caie of by the Duque del I'arque, by detachments tr^ m the garrison of Cindad Uodrigo.— I doubted of the rapacity ofthe gamson ot Cindad Kodrigo to m„ ke the detach- rr ent to the later, but had so little doubt ofthe effectual communication of the former, that in writ- ing to Marshal Beresford on the l7t'i of July, I desiied him to look to the Puerto de Perales, but that I considered Baoos as secure, as appears by the extract of my let er, which I inclose.— On tbe 12th intelligence was received at Talavera, that twelve thousand rations had'been ordered at Fuente lJuenos for the 28th, and twenty- four thousand at Los Santos for the same day, for a French corps, which it was beleved was on its march towards the Puertode Bat-. os.— Gen Cuesia expressed some anxu tv Tespect ng this post, ana sent me a message to promise that Sir R. Wilson should be sent there With his corps. Sir Hubert was on that day at Talavera, but his corps was in the mountains towards Escalona , and as be h d alreidv made himself very useful in that quarter and hf. d been near Midrid, with wh ch c ty he had had a communication, which I was de- sirous nt keeping up, 1 pioposed that a Spanish Corps should he sent to Banos without loss of time. 1 could noi prevail with Gen. Cuesta, although he cert only admitted tlie necess tv of a reinforcement when he pioposed that Sir Uobeit should be sent to Banos ; and he was equally stnsibl; with myself, of the benefit to be derived in the cause, from send- ing Sir R'. bett back to Escalona. At this time we had no fuitner intelligence ot the enemy's advance than ihut he taiions were ordered ; and 1 had hopes that the enemy might be deterred from ad- v. tifing, by the intelligence of our successor! t e 28ih, " and tfut the tro. ps in the Puerto might make some defence : and that under these circum stances > t was net dt suable to divert Sir Robert Wilson from Escalona. On the30th, however, I renewed my applica- tion to Gen Cuesta to send there a Spanish division et sufficient st. engih, in a letter to Gen O'Donog- liue, of which 1 inclose a t opy, but without effect; and he did not detach Gen. Bassecourt t II the morning of the 2d, after we had heard that the enemy had entered Bejar, ard it was obvious that the troops in the Puerto would make no defence.- On the 2d we received accounts, that the enemy had entered Pasencia in two columns. Ihe Mar- quis de la Keyna, whose two Daitalions consisted ol only 600 men, with only 20 rounds of'ammunition each inan, retired Irom the Puerto and from Pia- stnc a, wtih ut firing a shot, and went to the bridge of Aimaraz. wtiieh he declared that he in- tended io temove ; the butt li ns ot Bejar dispersed without mak ng anv resistance. The General called upon me t> n ihat day, and proposed that half ofthe armv should march lothe rear to oppose the enemy, while tbe other half should maintain the post at Palevera. My ans ver was, that it by h ilfihe armv he meant halt of each army, 1 could Only answer that 1 was readv either to go or stay with he whole British army. b. t that I could n< t separate t. He then desired me to chuse whether I would go or stay, and i preterred to go, from thinking that the Br t sh troops were most likely to do the business effectually, and without contest; and from being of opinion it was more important to us than to the Spanish at my, to open a communica- tion t.' irough Plascnci , although very important •\> them. YV tth this decision, Gen Cuesta appear- ed perfectly satisfied. I he movements of the enemv in our front s nee the I st, had induced me to be of opinion, that des- paumg of forcing us at Talavera, they intended to force a passage by Escalona, and thus 10 open a Communication with the French corps com ng from Plasenc a. lbs suspicion was corfirmed on the nigtn of ihe 2d, bv letters received frotii Sir Ro- bert W.-' son, of which I inclose copies ; and before I quitted i alavera on the 2d, 1 wa ted upon Gen. O'Donoghue ai d conversed with him upon the whoie of our situ it on, and pointed out to him the poss. b'ltv, hat in the case ofthe enemv coming through Escalona, Gen. Cuesta mignt find himselt obliged to quit Talavera, belore 1 could be able to return to him; and I urged him to collect all the cart, that could be got, in order to remove our hospital Athtsdesuel put tne purport of this conversation m writing, and sent him a letter to be i yd be, tore Gen. Cues a, of wliicn 1 enclose a copy.' v i he British armv marched on the Sd to Oro- pesa, Gen. Bassecourt's Spanish corps being at Cent nello, whe. e I desired it m ght halt the next day, in order that I migh' be nearer it.— About 6 o'clock in the evening, I heard that the French hud arrived from PI tcensia „ t Navalmoral, where- by they were between us and the bridge of Alma- raz.— About an hour afterwards, 1 received from Gen. O'Donoghue the letter and its mclosures, of wh en 1 inclose copies, announcing to me the inten- tion ol Gen, Cuesta to march Irom Talavera in ttie evening, and to leave there my hospital, except- ing sucn men as could be moved by the means he already had. on tne ground of his apprehension that 1 was not stiong enough for the coips coming from Plasensia, and that the enemy was moving upon his flank, a d had returned to Santa Olalla in histront.— 1 acknowledge that these reasons did not appear to rue sufficient for giving up so impor- tant a post as Ta aveia, lor exposing the combined arm es to an attack in front and rear at the same time, and for abandoning my hospi al; and 1 wrote the leaer ol which I enclose a copy. — Hits Unfortunately reached the General alter he had I marched, and he arrived ai Oropesa shorily after I day- ligiii, on the morning of'the 4th 1 he question what was to be done, was then to te considered. The enemy, stated to be 30,000 strong, but at all events consisting of ihe corps ol Soult and Ney, ether uni ed, or not very distant Srom each other, and supported by M irshatjouidan gldJoseph lionaparte, to be sufficiently strong to Mta- k the British army, stated to lie25,000 siiong, were on one side, in possession of ttie high ro d to the p ssage of tbe Tngus at Almaraz. the bridge at whichpiace we knew had been removed, although the bo its still necessarily remained in the river. On ttie other side, we had leason to expect the advance of Victor's corjji to ' 1 alavera, as soon Ai Gen. Cuesta's march should be known, and after leaving 12, C00 men to waich Venegas, and allow- ng him from 10 to 11,000 killed and wounded in i the late action, this corps would have amounted to 25 000. We could extricate ourselves from this d- fficult situation only by great celerity of move- ment, to which the troops were unequal, as ihey had not had their allowance of provisions for seveial days and by success in two bottles. If unsuccessful in either, we should have been without a retreat; and if Soult and Ney avoiding an action had retired before us, and had waited the arrival of Victor, we should have been exposed to a general action with 50,000 men, equally without a retreat. We had reason o expect, that as the Marqut3 dela Kevna could not remove the boats from the river Almaraz, Soult would ha> e destroyed them. Our only letreat was therefore, by the bridge Arco Bispo; and if we bad moved on, the enemy, by breaking that bridge while the army should he en- gaged w th Soult and Ney, would have deprived us of that only resourse. We cou'd not take a position at Oropesa, as we thereby lett open the road to the bridge of Arco Bispo from Talavera by Calera ; and after considering the whole subjtci maturely, [ was of opinion that it was advise„ ble to retire to the bridge of Arco Bispo, and to take up a defensive position upon the Tagus. I was in- duced to adopt this last opinion, because the French have now at letst fifty thousand men disposabie to oppose the Combined Armies, and a corps of twelve thousand to watch Venegas; and 1 was likewise of opinion, that the sooner ihe defensive line should be taken, the more likely were the troops to be able to defend it. Atcordingly I marched on the 4th, and crossed the Tagus by the bridge o( Arco Bispo, and have continued my rouie to this place, in which t am well situated to defend the passage of Almaraz and ihe lower patts of the Tagus. Gen. Cuesta crossed the river on the nignt ot tne 5t , and he is still at the br. dge of Arco Bispo. About 2000 of the wounded have been brought awav from I alavera, the remaining 1500 are there; and 1 doubt whether, under any circum- stances, it would have been possible or consistent with humanity to remove any more of them.—- From the treatment which some of the soldiers wounded oil the 27th, and who fell into the hands of tne enemy, experienced from them, and from the manner in which 1 have always treated the wound- ed who have fallen into my hands, I expect that these nten will be well treated ; and I have only to lament, that a new concurrence of even s, over Which from circumstances 1 had and could have no controul, should have placed the army in a situa tion to be obliged to leave any of them behind, 1 have the honour to be, & c. AR I'liUR WELLESLEY. Dnvining- street, Sept. 2. A Dispatch, of which the followingis a Copy, was yesterday morning receiveff- at the Office of Lord Viscount Castlereagb, from Lieut.- Gen. the Earl of Uiatham, dated head- quarters, Bathz, Aug. 29, 1809. MY LORD, Major Bradford delivered to me your Lordship's dispatch of the 21st inst. signifying to me his Ma- jesty's commands that I should convey to Lieut.- Gen. Sir E. Coole the General and other officeis and troops employed before Hushing, and parti- cularly to those of the artillery and engineer de partments, his Majesty's most giacious approbation of their conduct, and which I haveobeyed w th the most entire satisfaction, i had the hanour in mv list dispatch of acquainting you' Lo dsh'p with my Intention of proceeding to this place, and I should have been most happy to have been enabled to have announced to your Lordship the fu'ther progress of this army. Unfortunately, however, it becomes my duty to state to your Lordship that, from toe concurrent testimony from so many quarters, as to leave no doubt of the truth ol the m'orm ition, the enemy appears to have collected so formi. able a force, as to convince me ihat tbe period was ar- rived, at which my instructions would have directed me to withdraw the army under my command, even if engaged m actual operation. 1 had certain- ly early understood on my arrival at Walcheren, that the enemy were assembl ng in considerable force on all points ; but I was unwilling to give too much credit to these reports, and 1 was determined to persevere until I was satisfied, upon the fullest tnlormation, that all further attempts would be unavailable. From all our intelligence it appears that the force of the enemy in this quarter, disribu'ed between the enviions of Bergen op- Zoom, Breda, Lillo, and Antwerp, and cantoned oil the opposite coast, is n-. t less than 35 000 inen. and by some statements rs est mated higher. ' 1 hough a landing on the Con- tinent might, 1 have no doubt, have been forced, yet, as the siege ol Antwerp, the possession of which could alor. e have secured to us any of the ulterior objects of the Expedition, was bv this state of things rendered utterly impracticable, such a measure, if successful, could have led to no solid advantage; and the retreat of the army, which must at an early period have been inevitable, would have been ex- posed to much hazard. The utmost force ( and that daily dt creasing) that I could have brought into the field, alter providing tor the occupation of WalT cheren and South Beveland, would have amounted to about 25,000 infantry and 2000 cavalry. Your Lordship must at once see, even if the enemy's force had been less numerous than represented, after the necessary detachments to observe the garrisons of Bergen- op Zoom and Breda, and securng cur communications, how very inadequate a force must have remained for operations against Lillo and Lielkenshoeik, and ultimately against Antwerp; which town, so tar from being in the state which had been reported, is, from very correct accoun s, represented to be in a compltte state of defence ; and the enemy's ships had been brought up and placed in security, under the guns of the citadel. Under the^ e circumstances, however mortifying 0 me to seethe| progress arrested of an army, from whose good conduct and valour 1 had every thing to hope, I feeltha' my duty left me no other course than to close my operations here , and it will always be a satisfaction to me to think, that I have not been induced lightly to commit the safety of the army confided to me, or the reputation of his Ma- jesty's arms. It was an additional sa'isfaction to me to find that the unanimous opinion of the Lieut- Generali of this army, whom I thought it right to consult, more out of respect to them, than that 1 thought a doubt could be entertained on the sub- ject, concurred entirely in the sentiments 1 have submitted to your Lordship.-- 1 am concerned to say, that the effect of the climate at this unhealthy period of tbe year Is felt most seriously, and that the numbers of sick already is I ttie short of 3000 men. — It is my intention to withdraw gradually from the advanced position in this Island, and sending into Walcheren such an additional force as may be necessary to secure tint important possession, to embark the remainder of the troops, and to hold them in readiness to avail his Majesty's furthercom- mands, which 1 shall most anxiously expect. I have the honour to be, & c. ( Signed) CHATHAM. [ The Copy of a Dispatch from Rear- Admiral Sir R. Strachail, dated on board the St. Domingo off Bathz, the 27th ult. follows. The Rear- Admiral states, that having made the necessary naval ar- rangements for landing the army near Santfleet, without hearing from Lord Chatham, communicated with his Lordship ou the 2- ith, aud found him uutie « cided. On the 26th, attended with Rear- Admiral SirR. Keates a meeting of the Lieutenant- Generals of the Army, when, for the reasons already stated iu Lord Chatham's dispatch, the ulterior objicts of the Iixp. dition were^ ab indoued. Having offered every naval assistance in reducing the fortresses, and con- ceiving the subject of the deliberation to be purely military, he withdrew with Sir li. Keates. The Rear- Admiral then states, that the enemy's ships, which were five miles above Antwerp, havecome down, and are extended iu a line fronting it except two of tjlie line, which are in the reach above Liefkenshoeik, and four frigates gone to Lillo. An immense number of small gun- boats are on the boom, behind them a crescent of 60 guns, and mortar- brigs, and the bat- tery of 10 guns, between forts Lillo and Hendrich, is finished, though that ou the Doel side is aban- doned.] ' i his Gazette likewise contains a letter from Capt. Piggutt, of the Latona frigate, announcing the cap- ture on the 18tit June last, in the Wrest Indies, of the French frigate Fel cite, pierced for 42 guns, but having only 14 or her main deckers mounted, with 174 men on board. yZ ' 1th August, 1809.' ^ XTOTICE is hereby given, That Application is XN intended to be made to Parliament in the next Session, for leave to bring in a Bill and to ub-. tain an Act for making and maintaining a NavifaWe Canal from and uut of the Leicestershire and Nor- thamptonshire Union Canal, in the Parish of Gnmley, in the County of Leicester, into or through the several Parishes, Townships, Hamlets, Lib rties, or Places ( A Gumley, Foxton, Lubenham, Tbeduigworth, Hus- band's Bosworth, and North Kilworth, in tbe said County of Leicester: and VVclr'otd, Stanford, F.

Monthly Report for August.- The Wheat crops are, in many places,' fotinc?, on being reaped, to be thift on the ground, and of course, on the whole, deficient in the quantity of produce. ' I'he bad showery weather has likewise been injurious to them, in the more low situations? where ihey are in many instances much affected with the mildew. 1 he Barley and Oat crops are in general tolera- bly good, especially the former, much of which has been already secured in the more southern parts of the island, in a pretty good cond tion. The Turnip, Cabbage, and other crops of a si- milar kind, are, in most districts, very'promiiing. 1 he Beans, in some c- ses, are very lull and gooaj but in others, this ij very far from being the case. And the Pea, hom too continued wetness of tiio sea, on, are, in most places, affected with tt e mildew, and, consequently, not likely to be pro- ductive. The Potatoes are, we believe, every where ex- tremely promts ng. Harvest work has been very greatly ' retarded, inmost parts, by theconiiriued wet, unfavoutable state ot the wea. her: in many instances hardly half the usual quantity oflabour having been perform- ed. The after Grass crops, and the second crops of Clover, are in general full, but the weather has h therto, in a great measure, prevented tueic being cut. i he Hop crops, are likewise said to be much in want of fine sunny weather, to bring them to a pro- per s ate ol maturity. From the great flush of Grass, produced by the continued moist weather, Live Stock, of' most sons, have gone on well, having mostly had a full bite The Grain Markets continues somewhat on the advance: ' 1 he average price of Wheat per quar. ter, throughout England and Wales, is y4s. 3di Barley, 46s; Oats, 32s.

Belgrave, September 2, 130?, LONDON, THURSDAY September 1. As" no firings, or other signs of rejoicing, have been noticed on the French coast for some time past, it is concluded that the sig- nature of the peace with Austria lias not been formally announced at Paris.—- It was, howe- ver, last night, stated, on the authority of the captain of a vessel from Cherburah, that Bo- naparte at rived at Paris 00 the 30th ult. and was to set off the next day for Spain.— Three armies of 10,000 men each, it is added, had marched for that country. A report prevails that a negociatioil had commenced between our Government and that of Russia, and that a considerable and very favourable approximation had taken place. It is also rumoured in the city, that the com- mercial intercourse between the two countries is likely to be soon renewed. It was reported this morning that Govern- ment bad received dispatches from Lord Wel- lington, down to the date of August ,12, giv- ing an account of his uninterrupted retreat to Elvas. The Postscript of a letter from Plymouth, received this morning, states, that intelligence had arrived there from Martinique, of Guada- loupe having been taken possession of by a force sent from the former island, conform- able to a request made by the garrison and inhabitants of the latter. We do not under- stand that Government have received any oftkial statement to this effect. which can he worn without fading.

( j* 7„ That inimitable Actress whose unrivalled eXfcel ylence has incontestibly stamped her the favourite child of Thalia, we are happy to find is to display her superior talent on the Boards of our Theatre on 1 uesday and Wednesday next; this unexpected visit must assuredly excite the curiosity of the Pub- lic in general, as an opportunity may never again occur to witness the performance of M RS JORDAN. The last dispatches from Lords Chatham and Wellington, will be found in the last page. The failure of the expedition sent against the French arsenals and fleet in ihe Scneldt, is ai length avowed by the recall of the forces employed in it. Fiom the secresy, the judgement, and ihe sagacity, with which the expedition was planned— trom the mag- nitude of the armaments, both naval and military and I'rofn ihe activity with which every thing had been provided, that could in any way facilitate the objects in view, we had entertained the most san- guine expectations lhat every object would have been completely effected. Great, therefore is our disappointment and severe our regret that any failure should tiave occurred. To ascertain ; he cause of any national disaster, is but a melancholy satisfaction; it is, however a necessary one. The public have a right to know from whence it has happened, lhat one of the most formidable arma- ments lhat ever sailed from this country has been baffled, and compelled to abandon an object appa- rently attainable : whether it arose from any delects in the original plan ; from languor and want of enterprize in him or them who was appointed to execute it: or from such a sup< riority on the part of the enemy, or supervenient difficulties as render- ed sufceess impossible. Upon the whole we deeply regret that the expedition has been sent out. It is irlost mortifying to fail ( for fail vve have, though we ave taken Waicheten) after having thus drawn upon us, and towards us, the eyes and the hopes of gasping Europe. Lord Wellington's diipatch will be read with considerable interest. The circumstances which occasioned the combined British and Spanish ar£ mies fo relinquish the advantageous position at 1 a- lavera, and to place themselves behind tbe Tagus, are fullv explained in the official account. We feel gre'ai reluctance to arraign the conduct of an ally in whose support we are lavish, both of blood and treasure, but it is i duty which we owe our readeis, to declare, that unless affairs are managed by the Spaniards in a different manner from what* they have hitherto beet,' assistance that we can render ihefn can effectually serve them _ The effo ts of the Government, as well as of those they employ, insiead of encreasing as the crisis of the fate of their country approaches, stern to sink be- fore the dangers arid difficulties which arise afid threaten them. It would not become us to speak slightingly offhe personal Courage of their armies, but weknow not what to make of this same Cuesia. We are unwilling to impute to him the baseness of treason, and yet there is hardly a circumstance in his whole conduct that would not, if strictly exa- mined, bear us out in entertaining a suspicion of the kind. If we acquit him of this, we are still compelled to pronounce him one of the weakest, most perverse, and impracticable men living.

At the Gloucester Assizes, John Jones, alias King, charged " with robbing Mr. Aldridge, on the highway, near Bristol, pleaded guilty, tjpon be- ng asked why sentence of death s , ou! d not be passed on him, he said---" he was sensible he had i oiiuiiiited a fcrime against society, by which his life was forfeited, but thai he had been impelled by the distress of'his family " Judge Bayley, in pass- ing sentence was so afTtcted, that he was obliged to turn his face from the people, and whilst repeating; the usual words, " to be taken to the place front whence yoii were brought— and--- you know what I should say, and what I mean.' —- and wept. The other part of the sentence was scarcely ar- ticulate. An alarming circumstance happened at Nor- manby, near Spittal, on Friday last.— Mr. Danby, of that place, fatmer, hav ing put some damp gun powder into a small cast- metal oven on the night before to dry, forgot ii, and the powder remained till about ten o'cl. ck on Friday morning, \, vhen With dreadful explosion, it burst the oven, thep eces of which fl? w m all directions; cut in two a sack of malt, shattered a window, split two doors, and otherwise damaged various parts ofthe room, tor tun tely no lives were lost: a maid servant received a trifling injury, from which she is fast recovring. On T hursday tbe 17th u't. about tyvo o'clock in the afternoon, a ball ol fire, apparently a yard , n di- ameter, fell on the f. rm of Messrs. Holland, of Rockland, G miles from Louth. It passed ciose by a hay stack on which iwo men were at work, and struck the end of a contiguous cottage, which it en- tered, whilst the terrifii d tamdv of a labourer, his wife, and children, were at dinner. The electric body made iwo large apertures in the gable of the b'uilding, and descending to the room in which the family was, tore up and completely pulverised se- veral of the bricks of'the floor, immediately under ihe chair on which the cottager was sitting, whom it drove with considerable violence against a wall, singeing ail his clothes, and turnirg them nearly black.
