Admiralty- Office., July 18. [ 7Vflns/ « j? fed 641 Sir James Sc. umareil] SrR, Dictator, in the Sleeve, . July T. Illave the honour to inform vou, that yesterday eveninc, being off Mardoe, with the Elamer, Podargus, and Calypso brigs, the mast- heads of the enemy's squadron were - seen over the rocks; and Capt. Robilliard, of the Pudargug, volunteered to lead the squadron to attack them, he having a man on board acquainted with the place; and as neither the Masters or the pilots of either of th<> ships conceived themselves equal to the charge, I did nor he- itate to accept • his kind i. ffe'r, well knowing that the British flag would meet with nothing ^ iit honour in such hands. In the entrance of the passage, thePo'argns unfortunately took the ground, I v which circumstance 1 was deprived of the valuable ser- vices of her Commander during the remainder of the day, * and was, in consequence, obliged to leave the 1 lamer to her assistance; but in Capt. Weir, of theCalypso, I found every thing that could be wished for, which, in 11 great measure, made up for the loss which T had sustained in the Podargus and Flainer. By this time ( half- past seven P. M.) we had arrived within one mile of enemv, who were running inside the rocks under a press of sail; the Calypso, which had also proundc- d for a short time. w? s now leading us through the passage, and both she and ourselves engaged with the squa- dron and numerous gun- boats, llowever, at half- past ninp, - I had the satisfaction, after sailing 12 miles through a passage, in some places scarcely wide enough to admit of our studding- sail booms being out, of running the Dictator's bow upon the land, with her broadside towards the enemy, within hail of the Nayaden, I. ealand, Samfoe, aud Kiel, who were anchored with springs on their calles, close together, stnd supported by gun- boat « , in the small crock of Lyngoe, the Calypso most nobly following us up.— In half an hour the frigate was literally battered to atoms, and the flames bursting forth from her hatchways; the brigs had also struck and most of the gun- boats were completely beaten, and * some sunk. The a tion had scarcely ceased, and the ship afloat, than we found ourselves again attacked bv the gun- boats which had retreated 011 seeing the fate of their squa- dron, and were again collecting from all quarters; but Capt. Weir, of the Calypso, having taken a most advantageous position, engaged them with the greatest gallantry and effect. The Podargus and Flamer, in the mean dine, were warmly engaged with numerous batteries and gun- boats, both brigs being aground ; but bv the uncommon exertion and extreme gallantry of Cnpt. Robilliard, and the Officers and crews of the brigs, they at last go: afloat, very much cur up. On this ^ Occasion Lieut. England particularly distinguished himself. At three A. M. having got the Dictator, Calypso, and prize trigs in a fair wav, we attempted to get out through the }> as « a; es, when we were assailed by a division of gun- boats from behind the rocks, so situate, that not a gun could be brought to bear on tlif 111 from either vessel; in this situation both prize- brigs grounded, and notwithstanding every ex- ertion on the part of Lieut. Wilkie, of this ship, in the I. aaland, who bird extinguished a fire on board her, which was burning with great fury, and l. ieu'enant Hooper, of the Calypso, in the Kiel, we had to abandon them complete wrecks, humanity forbidding our setting them on fire, owing to the number of wounded men they had 011 board.

SIR— T beg you will be pleased to inform my Lords Com- missioners of the Admiralty, that on my passage through the ? leeve yesterday, I spoke the Nimble cutter, which had been dispatched to reconnoitre the enemy's position in Norway; the Commander of which informed ine, that besides the . frigate, one sloop was totally destroyed, and the rest d sabled, w ich account corresponds with my own obse vation dining and subsequent to the action. I enclose a report of the Danish force, prior and since the battle, from which, I trust, their Lordships will be satisfied they can effect nothing of importance this summer.— I have the honour to be, & c.

I have the honour to inform you, that, in pursuance of your orders, I stood in yesterday to communicate with the merchant vessel Urania, in Pillau Roads, when I perceived her to be in possession of the French troops, and that it / was intruded to destroy her on our approach: I tacked and stood off, judging it the most likely way to save the ship' ( which was employed by Messrs. Sullv and Son, on the part of Government) from destruction, and the remainder of ber cargo from falling into the hands of the enemy, to sur- prise her in the night. Lieutenant T. Jones ( 2d), Fiist of ibe Briseis; Mr. Palmer; Midshipman, and 13 men, were sent in the pinnace 011 that service at midnight; when within pistol- shot, they were hailed Stud fired upon bv the enemy, who had f> ix guus and four swivels on board the ^ Urania, which was surrounded by craft and boats; but every obstacle was overcome by the gallantry of Lieutenant Jones and his crew, who gave three cheers, boarded over the craft, and drove the enemy off deck into their boats on the opposite side, leaving behind part of their arms; the cable was then cut, and she was brought out, together with a i rencli schoot that was employed unlading her. On our side, I have to regret the loss of one seaman (. T. Cooper) killed; J. Cook, Serjeant of Marines, badly; Mr. Palmer, Midshipman ; and one seaman ( R. Starkins) slightly wounded: but the enemy must have suffered far / wore severely, by being exposed, in their turn, to the fire - from the Urania, after tiiey had abandoned her. I am, & c. J. ROsS, Commander. LONDON, TUESDAY, Julv 21. The arrival of a pilot boat at Liverpool, from America, brings the important intelligence, that the senate had de- termined 011 war with this country by a majority of six The pilot boat left New- York the 23d ult. An express had been received at that place by Major- General Bloomfield, which he read at the head of his wdiole army, formally an nouncing that war against Great Britain had been declared i by the United States. The Letters announcing the receipt of the above intel- ligence suppose that the declaration will be recalled the moment intelligence arrives of our Orders in Council having been revoked. As our Orders in Council did not furnish any, jusf ground for war, it does not seem quite cleat- why any such supposition can be entertained. Madd' niu and his partisans, in both houses, seem to have been determined upon war with this country, and upon alliance with France; else surely the intelligence last received by the American Government from France would have made them hesitate before they took so decisire a step exclusively against us. But America having made her election, are we to remain in supineness and inaction, trusting that the re- vocation of our Orders will induce her to retrace her steps? The declaration of war would immediately be followed by the issue of letters of marque and reprisal, and captures may iu consequence be made from us. Is this to call for 110 similar measure from us? Much of the rancour of America has originated in our forbearance; but forbearance now would be meanness. America has declared war, and let hijr have war, Lord Cathcart kissed hands on Fridav, 011 being appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and Minister Pleni- potentiary to the Court of Russia. He will set off in a few days. His Lordship will proceed in a frigate from Yarmouth, aud be accompanied by two Messengers. The merchants who applied at the Council Office, > n Saturday, were informed, that orders were immediately expected fnr declaring the trade to Russia and Sweden open; that licenses for importing grain would be prolonged till the lst of November next; and that instructions had been sent to Sir James Sanmarez, directing him, in case Riga or other Russian ports should be in possession of the French, to allow vessels bound to such ports to proceed to St. Peters- burgh, or elsewhere. Yesterday morning, Captain Harward, of the Caledonia, ( Sir Edtv. Pellew's flag- ship), arrived at the Admiralty, with dispatches from the Mediterranean. It is understood they relate chiefly to the movements of the Spaniards in Cata- lonia. Captain II. came to Portsmouth by the Pylades sloop of war, which was immediately placed under quarantine. Letters from the North of" Spain, to the 17th of June, have been received. They give the most flattering descrip- tion of the seventh army, under the command of General Mendizabal. I11 one week upwards of 200 young men repaired to its standard from Tolesa, notwithstanding the obstacles presented to them by the orders of the French Commander. There were already seven battalions formed and equipped in the province of Guipuscoa and Alaba. Mina had been appointed second in command in the seventh army. General Mendizabal was in Burgos, and Mina had had an action with the French, in which he made 400 prisoners, all of whom he shot, reserving their Commander for the last, to whom he shewed the decrees passed 011 both sides, and observed, that all good Spaniards were suffering through French cruelty, he must expect the same fate. The Governor- General of Girona having ordered the hangman of Catalonia to wear the same cap as that used by the soldiers of the first army, General Lacy, in return,, has decreed that the hangmen iti the diffrent towns under his command shall place- the Legion of Honour and the Iron Crown in their hats! Yesterday a Cadiz Mail arrived bringing accounts from that city to the lst. instant. Nothing material had occurred the vicinity of Cadiz. According to the Spanish papers Gen. Ballasteros was making every exertion to take the field against the enemy with renewed vigour. Soult, it is stated, had advanced in considerable force against General Hill as far as Santa Martha, but had again retired on the 23d, and was followed bv the allied troops. An expedition has sailed from Sicily, consisting of three British regiments, a detachment of artillery, two regiments of the German Legion, and the Calabrese Free Corps; in all about 7,000 men, in the finest condition for service. Gen. Maitland commands, with General Donkin at the head of die staff. ' They were first to call at Majorca for the Spanish force, which has been disciplining there, and then to dis- embark in Catalonia. The Danish Papers give a lamentable picture of the dearth of the necessaries of lile in Zealand, attested by the fact of a barrel of rye ( four bushels) having been sold in the market of F. Isineur for sixtv- two rix- dollars( 3f' 12 8s. sterling). Other articles are represented as equally exorbitant in price, and bread was not to be bad at any rate. His Majesty's ships Undaunted, Blossom, and Volontaire have taken and destroyed a French convoy of 20 sail in the Bay of Marseilles. A large National schooner which escorted them, and 13 of the convoy were burnt; the others were cut off, and sent for Port Mahou.— The convoy were all coasters. An evening paper contains the following account from Windsor:—" His Majesty increases in health daily; he takes his meals regularly, and now enjoys uninterrupted repose; his mental symptoms within these few days have been favourable, approaching at times to nearly lucid intervals." The Harvest.— Tt, is truly gratifying to hear, from the principal Corn Counties, that the late fine weather has produced a most striking effect 011 the growing crops, . and there is the most promising appearance of a good harvest. The public have reason to be satisfied with the beneficial result of the well- founded alarm, that took place subsequent to the last harvest, since, by the high price, there has not only been a general economy of the use of flour, but many farmers were tempted, by the prospect of still advanced prices, to keep their stock from market— a reserve which now secures the nation from all chance of scarcity till the new crop shall come in. We are , come to the dreaded period of the year— the two months before harvest; and so far from advanced prices, the prices are falling— and those who held back their corn will suffer from the speculation they made. So far, however, from complaining of this pro- ceeding it cannot but be considered as highly beneficial to the public weal; for, it is thus, that the country is, in turth secured against want. But for this, there might have been a lavish expenditure of " bread- corn in the beginning of the year, nay, perhaps a profuse export of it to Portiflgal, and even to France, that would have brought upon us, at this time, a most serious dearth of the necessary article. It is highly satisfactory, however, to think, that if the late crop defective as it avowedly was, has so nearly been sufficient we rnav, by a very little exertion, render ourselves indepen- dent of foreign aid in future. It is truly pleasing to be enabled to state, that tranquillity has in a great measure accompanied the revival of trade in the counties recently disturbed. I lie town and county of Nottingham were never more tranquil then they are at present. ' The frame- workers are now busy at work there, and throughout Leicestershire; the combs and shuttles of Yorkshire, the spindles and looms of Lancashire, and the smithy engines of Staffordshire and Warwickshite, are like- wise all iu motion, Leeds, July 20.— The Faction are most sorely goaded, at Mr. W'iiberforce's exposition of their tricks—" Their sediti- ous, wicked, and mischievous publications" as Mr. W. termed them, are, ill their own opinion, mild as milk; all that Mr. Wilbetforce knows from experience, and asserts from authority most indubitable, is false anil slanderous. The only men who act conscientiously, religiously, and disin terestedly, are those who spit their venom among the lower orders, w ho " alienate the affections of the people from the laws and Government of the country, and stir them up to measures mischievous to the community and miserable to themselves!"— It has been continually sounded in our ears that all the disorders, riots, and murders, in the manu facturing districts, would cease with the abrogation of the Orders in Council.— The men who proclaimed this, a/ way. speak the truth ! But they often take long credit with their asserlions.— How long is it since these Orders were abro- gated? Has the system of stealing arms, robbing houses, and attempting to assassinate, been stayed ? No, no, so Ion as " certain seditious, wicked, and mischievous publications' go 011 as they now do, there will be 110 end to the career of outrage. Only persuade the people that Great Britain has 110 other object in view for continuing the war, than in placing Ferdinand on the throne of Spain,— that all the offers of France, to make peace, must be sincere,— persevere in this sort of doctrine, and, we'll warrant, the deluded many facturers and others will soon return to a sense of the duty they owe to their King and Country !— Intelligencer. Among the deluded persons recently executed at Lan- caster, for rioting, was H. Smith, a married woman, with eight children, who was convicted of taking two pounds of butter from a cart, antl forcing the owner to sell it for Is per pound, being 3d. per pound less than he demanded.

DISPATCHES, of which the following are extracts, have been ibis dav received nt Lord Bat burst's O flier, ad. dressed to Ihe Earl of Liverpool, bv General the Earl ofWel- lington, dated the 25th and 30th of . Ititle, 1812. Salamanca. Jane. 2.5, 1812. Marshal Marmont collected his arAy on the Dnuro between the I fit h and 10th in. I. with the exception of General Bonnet's division, which, I believe, is still in the AsturiaS, and soine small garrisons, and he moved forward from Fuente Sabueo on the 20th. I formed the Allied Army, frith the exception of the ( roops engaged in the operations against the forts in Salamanca, on Ihe heights extending from the neighbourhood nf Vlffare » to Moriseo; and the advanced pfats of the cavalry and infantry retired upon the army in good order, and without toateriul lose. The enemy remained in our front on that nighl, land during the 21 « t. and during that nigh< thev established a post on our right flank, the possession nf . which, by them, deprived lis of an advantage which might eventnally be of importance.— I therefore requested Lieutenant- general Sir " Thomas Graham to attack them in that post on the 22( 1, with the troops on the right, which he did with those of Ihe 7th division. wl': Mi were the reserve of Ihe right, under the t- nmmand of Major- Gen. Hope and Major- Gen. de Bernewitx. — The enemy were driven from the ground immediately w ith tonsiderable loss ; our troops conducted themselves remarkably well in Ihis affair, which took place in the view of every man of both armies.— The enemy retired during that night s and on the follow ing evening thev posted themselves with their right nn Ihe heights near Cabesa Vellosa, and their left on the Toi iiies at Huerla ; their centre at Aldea Rubin. The object of tin'eneinv in this movement being to endeavour to com- municate with the garrisons in the forts of Salamanca by the left njf the TortVles. I changed Ihe front of the army, and placed the right at St. Martha, where there is a ford over the Tonnes, and the advanced posts at Aldea Lingua.— I sent Wajnc- Grn. Bock's brigade, of heavy dragoons across the Tonnes, in order lo observe the passages of Ihe river. The enemy rrossed ihe Tonnes at Iluerta about two o'clock t> f the morning of the 21th, in considerable numbers nf cavalry, infantry, arid artillery ; am1 there was every appearance of a general movement in that direction. The conduct of Major- General Rack's dragoons was conspicuously good upon this occasioh; Ihcy did every thing in their power. to make known the enemy's movement, and opposed their advance vigorously, under many disadvantages, in order to afford time for tho disposition! necessary to he made an Ihe occasion.— As soon ns I was certain that the enemv had crossed the Tonnes, I re- quested Eieu tenant- General Sir T. Graham to cross that river with the lst'and 7lh divisions : and I sent over Major- General Lc Marchant's brigade of cavalry, and I concentrated the remainder of the army between Morisco and Cahrerizas keeping the advanced posts still at Aldea Lingua. At about boon the enemy advanced as far as Calvarissa de Abaxo ; hut, ebserving the disposition made for their reception, they re- tired again in the afternoon to cross the Tonnes to Iltierta ; nod they have since remained in the position which they oc- cupied on thp23d. The siege of these fort « has not advanced with the rapidity whith t expected ; although from the pdins taken, and the » xpehst! incurred in their construction, I was prepared to meet with some difficulties, and provided ail equipment accord- ingly : tii^ difficulties are of a formidable nature, and the foris, three in number, each defending the other are very strong although no! of a regular construction. Vfe have breaches open iu the convent of St. Vincenie which is the principal work ; but these cannot be attacked in seenritv till we shall have possession of Fort St. Cayetano Major- General Clinton made an attempt to carry that work hy storm on the night of the 23d instant, the gorge having been considerably damaged by the fire vf our . artillery. This attempt unfortunately failed, and I am concerned to add, that Maior- General Bowes was killed. He was so eager for the success nf the enternrize that he had gone forward with the storming finrty, which consisted of a part of his brigade, and was wounded; and after his first wnunrl was dressed he re- turned again to the attack, and received a second wound which killed Wira. Our loss in officers and men was likewise considerable. By a letter from Lieutenant- General Sir R. Hill, of the K< T. t learn lliat General Drouet had been considerably rein- forced from Andalusia, since ihe defeat of General Hatlasteros at Kornos in the beginning of the month, and had advanced as far as Almendialejo and Villa Franca; and Lieut.- General Sir ft. Hill had concentrated his troops. General Batlasleros Jiad sustained a severe loss, in his action at Bornos on the 1st ofJnnej and I understand that he retired to theneighhourhood of Gibraltar. tn the North, Gen. Saritocthles, under the direction of Gen. Cnstanos, has invested Astorga with the Gallician army, and is about to attack that place ; in which operation I imagine that lie cannot be interrupted. The guerillas are in unmolested p « " etsiao of all parts of the country, and the enemy's weak and scattered garrisons are cutol from all communication with each other, or with the country. Fumtela Pena, . Tune 30, 1812. The ammunition to enable as lo carry on the attack of the forts having arrived at Salamanca in the afternoon of th<" 2Bth, the fire was immediately recommenced upon the gorge of the redoubt of St. Cayetano, in which a practicable breach was rlfected at about 10 o'clock on the morning of the 57th, and we had succeeded neatly about the same time in setting fire to the buildings in Ihe large fort of St. Vincente, by the fire from which Ihe approach of St. Cayetano by its gorge was defended. Being at Salamanca af this moment, I gave direc- tions that Ihe forts of St. Cavetanrf and La Merced should be stormed ; bnt some little delay oc'cu. rr'ed, in consequence of Ihe Commanding Officers of those forts in the first instance, and afterwards ihe Commanding Offirerof St. Vincente having expressed a desire to capitulate after the lapse of a Certain number of hours. As it was obvious that these propositions were made in order to gain time, till the fire of St. Vincente should be extinguished, I refused lo listen lo any terms, unless 111* forts should be instantly surrendered; and having found that Ihe Commanding Officer of St. Cayetanh, who was the first to offer to surrender, was entirely dependent upou the Governor of St. Vincente, and could not venture to carry into execution the capitulation which he had offered to make, I gave directions that this fort and that of La Merced might be stormed forthwith. These operations were effected in the most gallant manner, by detachments of the ( Sill division, under the command of Lieut.- Col. Daviesof the 36th regiment, lindrr the direction of Major- Gen. Clinton. The troops en- tered the fort of St. Cayetano by the gorge ; and escaladed that of La Merced; and I am happy to add that our loss was hut trifling. The Governor of Si. Vinrrnle then sent out a flag to notify the surrender of that fort on the terms Thai! offered him ; viz. the garrison to march out wilh Ihe honours of war; to be prisoners of war ; and the officers to retain their personal iDilittirv baggage and the soldiers their knapsacks; and not- withstanding that the9th regiment of Cn<; adores had actually stormed one of the outworks of Si. Vinceute, and were in possession of it, 1 deemed it expedient tn accept the fort by capitulation on ( hose terms, aud to stop the attack. T have already Informed your Lordship that Major- General Clinton commanded Ihe attack against these forts, which was carried on with great vigour and ability ; and he mentions in strong terms of commendation the conduct of the General Officers, Officers, and troops employed under his command. The enemy had been employed for nearly three years iu constructing these works, but with increased activity for the last eight or nine months. A large expense had been incurred; and ihrne works suffi- cently garrisoned by about 800 men, and armed with 30 pieces of artillery, were of a nature to render it quite impossible to lake fhem, excepting by a regular attack ; and it was obvious that the enemy relied upon their strength, and upon their being sufficiently garrisoned and armed, as they had left in Sr. Vin- rante large depots of clothing and military stores of every deferipiion. I was mistaken in my estimate of the extent of the means v hictr would be necessarylo subdue these forts ; and I was obliged to send to the rear for a fresh supply of ammunition; this necessity occasioned adekiy of six days. The enemv withdrew their garrison from Alba de Tormes, as soon as they heard of the fall of the forts Of Salamanca. The operations against the forts of Salamanca were carried nn in sight of . Marshal Marinont's army, which remained in its position, with the right at Cabeza Vellos, and the left at Hncrtu, till the night of the 27th inst. when they broke up, nail retired in three columns towards the river Douro ; one of them directing its march upou Turo, and the others apon Tordesillas- The allied army broke up the following day, and are this dav encamped upon Ihe Guarena.

Mr. Sheridan rose to move fur the production of copies of lie Correspondence that had lately taken place between our Government and that of France. It had not been originally his intentioti to go into any detail upon a question, in his opinion, so clear, still less wai it then his wish to do so, when the motion he had to make was to he conceded to him; but wheh so considerable an interest had been excited to hear the sentiments of his Hon. Friend ( Mr. Whitbread) who had left his country ease and occupations, to come down to the House to prove that they were all iti the wrong in approving of the answer given by this Government to France, iie confessed he felt impatient to hear how his Hon. Friend could contrive to make that proposition out. In thus committing himself against his Hon. Friend, he was but too conscious with what and whom he had to contend ; but though he stood there in his own humility, opposed to all the weight of his Hon, Friend just at hand, and ready to bear down upon him— though he was but the poor pheasant timidly fluttering beneath the mighty bird hovering over his head, and ready to pounce upon him—(" a laugh)— notwithstanding all such disadvantages he was ready tn enter the lists with his Hon. Friend to hear what arguments could be advanced by him to prove that the French Government was sincere in their late overtures, or to shew that that proposition slid not deserve the character which he ( Mr. S.) had already given it, that of being at once perfidious, insidious, mid insulting ( hear, hear, hear.')} perfidious, because it called upon us tn do tliat which could not be done without the grossest perfidy lo our allies, ant^ the most treacherous violations of all our most solemn engagements, ( hear, hear !); insidious, because it wanted til ensnare us into the appearance of doing what it never seriously meant we should do, because it apparently directed to us, what was addressed to another ( hear, hear); and insulting, because it had been both the former, and because it must have been made on the presumption, either that we were sufficiently besotted to be the dupes of such an artifice, or sufficiently degraded to connive at it ( hear, hear.) In the heat of the Russian nego- ciation the Emperor of France— or tile French Government— call him what they pleased— a matter of very little import— was in the act of treating with Russia. Russia hesitates and grows reluctant. In order, therefore, to excite her jea- lousies and fears, he strikes up the feint of a negotiation with England, and takes care to forward, with all possible dis- patch, a list to Russia of all the great and many sacrifices he is willing to make to induce England lo a peace. The letter of the Duke of Bassano to the Noble Lord is dated the 17th of April, and the letter to Count itomanzow, apprising the Court of St. Petersburg!! of the offer made to England, is dated Ihe 25th of the same month : the answer of our Govern- ment was written the 23d of April. It was impossible, there- fore, that our rejection of that proposition could have been forwarded to Russia at the same time * vith the intelligence of the proposals made us. In fact, it was never meant they should. They were in no hurry either for our answer, since our Flag of Truce was fired at from the French coast, and obliged to be forwarded by Morlaix. No reply had been given to the answer. Was any man who heard him surprised at this? ( Hear, hear, hear.)— Did any man seriously expect that Bonaparte would have sent au answer?—( Hear, hear, hear.)— He only wished for the appearance of a negotiation with England while menacing Russia— and ill disposed as he must he at all times to our government, he did not think so meanly of it as to expect that it could have been caught by such a naked juggle. He might have said to us, " Russia is inexorable in her determination to resist that system that has for its object Ihe extinction of all those antient national rights and privileges that constitute the maritime, power of England. She obstinately refuses to join me in attacking the source and sinews of your wealth and strength; let me beg, therefore, that you will join me in establishing the permanent blessings of — a " temporary truce. I will guarantee your ally, Spain, because I want 150,000 men now employed there, to act against this Russia, who would not act against you— you will assist me therefore. I shall then destroy Russia— and, much obliged to you for your peaceable forbearance in the mean time, I shall then return and destroy Spain." ( A laugh. J- That such was no very extravagant statement he left it to the House to decide—( If ear, hear,)— How had Bonaparte himself stated" his own case?— Let the Emperor speak for himself. He then read the folio wing passage: Seeing himself thus con- strained to abandon every hope from Russia, his Majesty, before he should commence this contest in which so much blood was to be shed, felt it to be his duly lo address himself to the English Government; the distress felt by England, the agitations to which she is a prey, and Ihe changes which have taken place in her Government, decided his Majesty to take this course." So that Bonaparte's imperial sympathies for the distress of his beloved England, his contrite pity for Ihe agitations to which she was a prey, were the moving impulses that finally swayed his gentle spirit tn solicit peace.—(. 1 lau^ h.)— Bnt this Was too much— too much even fur the cha- ritable crerlulfty of his Hon. Friend. And so far was he ( Mr. S.) from admitting those agitations to exist iu this country, either to the extent or in the spirit so insidiously implied in the passage just read, that he believed that if ever there was a period since the commencement of the war, iu which we might, and ought to make one bold struggle, it was the present; because, however severe the pressure of the times might have been felt, Ihe people of this country were well aware of the wild ambition lo which they were to be traced, and the implacable hostility hy which that ambition was infuriated.—( Hear, hear.)— Put to them the alternative of privation or conquest, and would a second thought stay the indignant decision of one freeman throughout the empire— ( Hear, hear.)— If temporary privations were to make us indifferent to independence, we were ripe for slavery.— But it was impossible! — Could his Hon. Friend shut his eyes to what was Ihe sole object of Bonaparte? Did he believe that Bonaparte's battles, his marches, his councils, the indefati- gable toil of his restless spirit, had no other aim, no dearer object than the dominion of Spain, Ihe Crown of Sicily, the sovereignty of Malta, or the subjugation nf a Sugar island? Did not his Hon. Friend knaw, that the fiercest cravings of that man's ambition were stimulated bv the deeply lodged grudge seated in his heart against England? ( Hear). The lust that has seized, and preys upon him, to destroy the maritime rights of this country. ( Hear, hear.) " By war," said Mr. S. 41 he never, thank God, can deprive us of those rights; and I trust in God that he never will by negotiation." ( llear, hear.)— Mr. S. concluded hy moving that an humble Address be presented to Ihe Prince Regent, praying the production of the correspondence between the Duke of Bassano and Lord Castlcreagh—( for which, see last page.) Mr. Whitbread seconded the motion. He said, that if any person had entered the House after the commencement of the speech of his Right Hon. Friend, he might have supposed him ( Mr. S.) to be replying to a preceding speech made by him ( Mr. W.) so entirely had his RightHon. Friend presumed what he would say, and then answered as his speech what had been merely a series of his own presumptions. He might, however, be supposed to have had some private communi- cation with his Right Hon. Friend upon this subject, hut he assured the House he had not had any, either written or ver- bal— none, at least, thai could justify the conjectural speech which had been just put into his mouth, and then answered by liiin who had so conjectured it. He did, indeed, say on a former occasion, that it appeared to him that the late over- ture was one of the few, when an attempt at negotiation might be made with more probability of success than at any former period. He knew he had always been considered as an en- thusiast upon the subject of negotiation with France. It would be ill the memory of the House, that at the commence- ment of the war in Spain, he regarded that as a favourable moment when this government ought to have sent a Minister to Bonaparte at Bayonne. When too, afler four years of unsuccessful war, Spain was still unsubdued, and France was incumbered with a war with Russia, he thought that was another opportunity which should not be lost in attempting to negotiate with Bonaparte. At the present moment, also, when Ihe Emperor of France was distracted with a northern war, when he was disappointed in his reliance upon a person whom . he had placed as the eventual heir lo the Crown of Sweden; when he was harassed with the war in Spain, and with difficulties at home, he did think that this also was a most fortunate moment to open a negotiation upou a basis of good faith aud sincerity ; and that Ministers would have acted with prudence, had they advised the Prince Regent to send a direct proposition to France. Consequently, tie thought it hignly imprudent to rettirn the answer which he did. In saying this, he would be the last man to crouch to any thing derogatory to the national honour. His Right Hon. Friend would recollect, I bat if one single sentence had been omitted, this Government would then have eolercd upon negotiation. That seutetice, however, according to his Right Hon. Friend, was perfidious, it was intended to ensnare us into a dishonourable discussion, it was to entrap us, it was to make us withdraw our armies from Spain.— But why, he would ask, should I hat one pro- position he made a bar In all attempt at negotiation, when every other point for whiek we were at » » t was conceded? His Right Hon. Friend had said, that he ( Mr. W.) was willing to. proceed lo negotiation even on ttfht'basis. He would de- clare', however, that he was prepared to do no such thing: hut there was a wide difference, in his apprehension, between negotiation upon that basis and not negotiating at all. He believed France sincere in her overtures; and he believed she had always been sincere in them. He knew that doctrine was unpopular in the House of Commons: he feared it was unpo- pular in the country; but if the House at all thought with him as to the sincerity of the French Government, on the late oc- casion, then they would agree with him also, that the Noble Lord should have returned a very different answer to what he did. The answer he could have wished to be returned was this: upon such and such terms as you have proposed, as a " basis for negotiation, we are willing to treat; one, however, excepted ; we cannot receive that; we do not, however, ask you to recognize Ferdinand Vfl, as the King of Spain, any more than we will consent to acknowledge the dynasty you wish to found ; but we ask, that Ihe existing authorities of Spain should ke a party lo the negotiation. Had such been the answer, and had the French Government remained sil'ent, as now, or returned a direct refusal,' England would then have been completely justified in the eyes nf reason, of justice, and of God. But looking at the proposition in another point of view, he saw nothing that justified the jealous precaution of Ministers. It was agreed that both countries should withdraw thrir armies. What then would have been the necessary con- sequence ? Why, that King Joseph must certainly have gone very soon after the French army, if he had uot found it pru- dent tn retire in the very middle of it. Mr. Hutchinson recommended that every opportunity should be afforded to obtain peace. He panegyrized the conduct of the Russians, and thought that if proper steps had not been taken by the British Government to pievent Ihe war between Prance and Russia, Ministers were culpable. He was sorry that the papers did nut give the Emperor of France his title, and expressed his opinion that no conqueror of ancient or modern date was more deserving power than the Emperor of France, or had committed fewer outrages. —( Hear, hear! from the Ministerial side. )— As he was the greatest conqueror that ever appeared, so perhaps he had more to answer for; but lie . spoke here of private atrocities, which could be less charged upon him, he would repeat it, than upon any other conqueror. He thought we were yet capable of making a gigantic effort; but uot iu the way in which the war was at present carried on. hard Casllereagh said, that far from encouraging Russia, the language held out to her by this Government was that of precaution, not of excitement; but he thought that when Russia was disposed to make an effort, we should not be reluctant to assist. Mr. Canning, in a speech of great length and eloquence, which we lament our limits will not permit us to detail, defended the conduct of his Majesty's Ministers against Ihe charges which had now been brought against them, lie ad- verted with particular severity to the language which had been used by the Hon. Gentleman who had last spoken re- specting Bonaparte, and urged many strong arguments in favour of the policy which had guided the conduct of his Majesty's Ministers towards France for several years past. Mr. Whitbread spoke in explanation. [ Some explanation took place between Mr. Canning and Mr. Hutchinson. The latter complained of having been mis- represented bv the Rt. Hon. Gentleman, when he described him as the champion of Bonaparte. The former denied hav- ing used the word champion in the manner imputed to him, hut stated the impression on his mind, produced by the Hon. Gentleman's speech to be the same after his expiauation as before.] Mr. Sheridan replied, in a speech replete wilh the most brilliant eloquence. He would rather the country should perish than ignobly submit. " Let us command it from the future historian," said the Hon. Gentleman, 41 if one inde- pendant historian be ! eft to record the event, that when Great Britain at last fell, there fell the best champion for the li- berties and glory of the civilized world."—( Hear !) The question was then put, and carried without a division. LADIES' SfeMIMAliY, , HIGH- STREET, WARWICK, TFTIL MILES FJTO. M LEJMISGTOLSR SCJ. iX/ TRS. WRIGHT very respectfully informs her 1.

NEAlP. 4- SON, On Tuesday the 11th Day ot August, 1812, about Four o'Clock in the Afternoon, subject to Conditions of Sale then to be produced, LI. that substantial Brick and Slated DWELI. ING- wtre nominated by a General Meeting held at Bedford, on the 3d Instant, a Committee, to conduct an Application proposed to be made lo Parliament, in the ensuing Session, for a Bill to enable a Compauy of Proprietors to carry the same into Effect. It has become the Doty of the Committee therefore to sub- mit to the Consideration of the Public the Nature of the Scheme and the Advantages it presents. The Canal is intended to be a Boat Canal, and to extend from the Terminal ion of the River Ouse Navigation jit Bedford, by Marston, Lidlington, Brogboro « gh Farm, and Wavendon, to the Grand Junction Canal, nt or near the Village of Woughton, situated about three Miles North nf Fenny- Strat- ford, and at the same Distance South of Newport. Pagnell. Thus touching the Grand Junction Canal at a Point well suited to a Communication either from Bedford to London, or to the north- western Parts of the Kingdom. Tills Communication between the Ouse and the Grand Junction Canal, wilt- open to the Counties of Bedford, Hunt- ingdon, and the Fen Country, an immediate Channel of Con- veyance for their Corn to the populous Districts of Birming- ham, Manchester, & c.; from whence will be received in Back Carriage, Coal, Iron, and manufactured Goods. Loudon also will be open to such Parts of the above Counties by tlie Line of the Grand Junction Canal, as are too distant from the Cambridge Canal to adopt that Course ; and it will afford them the choice of Markets, and Means of importing Shop Goods, and every necessary of London Supply. In the Town of Bedford, and iu its Neighbourhood, will he created a regular Demand for the Barleys grown ill the sur- rounding District to a great Extent, in order to their being malted for the London Market: a Trade which the peculiar Situation of the Town of Bedford renders her well calculated to carry on. The immediate Line of Country through which the Canal will pass, is a most fertile and improvable District, which may now be considered nearly in an insulated State, frnm the Badness of the Roads. I11 wet Seasons they are quite im- passible for heavy Carriages. The Farmers in that District will be furnished with the Means of conveying their Produce to the London and north- western Markets, and of importing Liine ( the Species of Manure best adapted to that Soil of Land), as well as Lime for Building, Slate, Brick, Tile, and other Articles for the same Purposes, which, from the increasing Population, are daily becoming of increasing Demand. When this important Extension of the trading and agricul- tural Interests of Bedfordshire, and the surrounding Counties, a id of the manufacturing and mining Interests of the Norih- Wcst, the Canal Interests in the same Direction, anil on the Line from Bedford to London, and ( he Advantages likely to he derived bv the Metropolis itself from this Communication, are duly considered ; it is confidently hoped and expected, the Undertaking will meet with the Support w hich its manifest public Utility merits. In the Event so highly probable of a further Extension of the Line from Bedford to join the Cambridge Canal, the Ad- vantages will be increased manifold, by the Communication thus to be opened with Ihe Counties of Hertford, Cambridge, and Suff. dk. 6 Bedford, 16th July, 1812.

AMail from Cadi/ has arrived, hy which letters anrl^ papers to the Gtli in sr. have lieert received from that' city. Nothing of any material consequence had occurred in the vicinity of Cadiz. The enemy continued at intervals to bomhard '- Aie place, hut with very inconsiderable effact. The accounts fron the interior of the Peninsula represent the Spaniards as every where active in organizing the tneah^ of resistance to the enemy. The recent successes of Lord Wellington were known at Cadiz, where they had excited the most lively joy ; and the strongest hopes were entertained of the beneficial results likely to attend the movements of the allied army. Lacy and Sarsfield are said to have obtained some Fresh advantages in Catalonia; and the evacuation of the Asturias, by the troops under Bonnet, is confirmed. It is reported he withdrew with such precipitation as to leave bis artillery, and sick and wounded, hehind him. The Cadiz papers mention a report of Joseph having quitted Madrid; but this appears to he premature. Soult, it was understood, had evacuated nearly the whole of Lower Estremadura. A communication received from Riga, dated 27th ult. contains the following Important particulars:— When Bona- parte began his atlvance to the East in . the direction of the Admiral Martin, with his squadron entered the T Niemen, Onlph of Riga, and approaching the port sent an Officer in full uniform with dispatches to the Governor, Von Essen, requesting an interview. The Governor replied that he should be happy to rece: ve him, and to obtain the commu- nication with which he was entrusted, but that by established usage the Envoy of a hostile power could not he admitted in uniform. On this answer the British Officer, in a common dress, had a conference with the Governor, but declined delivering his dispatches. Shortly afterwards Napoleon passed the Niemen, and on this event the Governor sent a message to Admiral Martin, signifying that he was instructed to announce the restoration of tranquillity between his Im- perial Master and his Britannic Majesty ; and adding, that it would give him satisfaction to receive any dispatches ac- cording to the accustomed ceremonies between friendly powers. The same officer who was before employed returned to the Governor, in his uniform, and with the official communication, which notified to M. Von Essen the readiness of the British Admiral to give every assistance, with the squadron under his command, to the port of Riga. This intimation was most handsomely received, a telegraph was immediately raised to maintain ail intercourse between the fleet find the city, and three of our ships of war were allowed to enter the harbour. Yesterday in the House of Commons, Sir Thomas Turton moved a series of resolutions declaratory of the state of our finances. The Hon. Baronet calculated the amount of the National Debt at upwards of 660 millions, and our Annual Expenditure at 105 millions. It was impossible for the Country long to support so great a burthen, and he therefore urged the necessity of economy, a reduction in the scale of our national expenditure, and, above all, if it was possible, consistent with our security at^ d honour, the restoration to the people of the blessings of peace.— Mr. Tierney proposed another string of resolutions, embracing his view of the subject, for the adoption of the House. He drew a gloomy picture of the resources of the country, and was of opinion that some strong measure ( which he was sure the people would readily submit to) was absolutely necensary to save us from ruin"— The Chancellor of the Exchequer agreed that our finances were in a very delicate state, hut by no means so bad as represented by the two Hon. Members who preceded him. Something, however, he felt it would be necessary to do, and one practical measure was, a tux on capital, which might be made very productive, and enable Government to take off a part of the Income Tax. If he remained in office, he should feel it his duty, next Session, to submit some strong measure tn the House, and sure he was, the spirit of the people would bear it.— Mr. Iltiskisson thought a great reduction might be made in our naval expenditure.— Mr, Whitbread, after taking a view of . the subject before the House, asksd what would be our situation, if, which God forbid, there should be occasion for another Keaency? This, though unlikely, was not impossible, and might have the worst effect oil public credit. He also adverted to the seclusion in which the Princess Charlotte of Wales lived, who was now out of her minority by Jaw. Those who were to be her future subjects ought more frequently to see the Princess, the hope and glory of Eng- land, as lie trusted she would be. He concluded by again recommending a sincere attempt for the restoration of peace.— Several other Members spoke, after which the Resolutions were all negatived. Sir F. Burdetc gave notice, that on Tuesday, he would move an Address to the Prince Regent on the state of the country. On the 10th inst. a horse belonging to a gentleman of Milborne St. Andrew's, was attacked by several swarms of hees, at Dewlish, while fastened by the bridle to a gate. Two or three people attempting to rescue him were stur. g blind, but they at length set him free, and he went off like a mad thinf: the infuriated insects pursued hiin, and he be- came entangled and fell, and in a short time expired with the most rending groans. Dreadful murder at Barnes, Surry.— The Count and Countess d'Antraigues were on Wednesday mnrning savagely butchered by their own servant, who nfterwards eluded the just sentence of the law by putting nn end t « his nwn wretched life! The monster who perpetrated this series of foul cricaes, was an Italian, named Lawrence, surname unknown. A Coroner's Inquest was yesterday held before Mr. Jem- meft, at the White Hart, on Barnes Terrace, on the bodies. S. Black, a servant in the family of the deceased Count nnd Countess, stated, that the carriage nf the deceased was ordered to the door of their house at eight o'clock on Wed- nesday morning ; her mistrcM at that hour prepared to go in the carriage ; when her lady went to the hall, witness fol lowed her, and called to Lawrence, who stood outside, to open the coach door ; instead of doing so, he walked past his mistress, and the witness immediately after heard the report of a pistol. Lawrence immediately after ran up stairs, and she saw him coining down again, with a pistol in one hand and the other hand hehind hiin. She did not see what he held in the hand behind him. The Countess went nut at the front door; and when Lawrence returned after the report of the pistol, witness saw him strike the Countess and again run up • lairs. Presently after she saw the Countess bleeding. Wit- ness was greallv alarmed, and ran in to procure assistance. A few moments after she went to the door again, and saw her mistress lying in the parlour bleeding. She was alive, but speechless, having received a wound in the breast. A mr- grnn was sent for, who came immediately, but her mistress died iu a few minutes after he came. E. Ashton, another servant of the family, corroborated the evidence of Ihe preceding witness. W. Ilebditch, coachman to the Count d' Antraigucs, said, he was ordered by Lawrence to get the coach ready hy eight o'clock on Wednesday morning. Witness was at the door with the coach to his time. Soon after he had pulled up at the door, he saw the Countess coining. Lawrence walked from the coach towards her, and witness heard the pistol go off. At the same time th< re was some exclamation, which the witness understood to be " Not killed I" or words to that effect. Lawrence immediately after went up stairs. The Countess went into the house after the firing of the pistol. The witness soon after saw Lawrence return again, and as he came hy his master, witness saw him lift up his hand and strike the Count with a dagger under the left shoulder, and rushed past him to the passage. His mistress at the same time was wounded and bleeding, and he saw her struggle and fall, lie turned round to assist her, when the Count came to the 4mnr vritlt the blood running out at his coat sleeve. The Countess was taken iuto the parlour, and the Count returned up stairs to his own chamber. At the moment the Count went up stairs, witness heard the leport of another pistol from one of the rooms ubbve stairs. Several people then came to the door, and witness begged some of them to go up stairs, which they did. After assisting his mistress they proceeded to the Count's chamber, and found liiin sitting on the bed, and Law- rence lying dead on the floor with his brains out. A pistol was lying by him, which he had applied to his mouth. The Count was speechless, and died snon after, Mr. Ball, a surgeon, stated the nature of the wounds. In addition to the above, it was stated by the servants, that l. awrence had been only three months in Ihe Count's service. No reason whatever could he assigned for his atrocious conduct. The Jury returned a verdict nf Wilful Murder, committed by the deceased servant, Lawrence, on the Count and Countess, and Suicide with respect to hipiself, and that lie was in his senses when he committed the dreadful crimes.— The bodies exhibited a most dreadful appearance. The followiug circumstances, in so extraordinary a ease may be wnrlli relating. The Count, it appears, always kept twulnace. of pistols hanging lnaded in his bed- room, and fi small dirk. About a month ago the Countess and servants beard the report of a pistol up stairs, and were in consequence greatly alarmed •, when one of the latter, a female, went up stairs, and looked into her master's room; it was full of • moke, and she screamed out; on its clearing away she saw Lawrence standing, who told her nothing was the matter; he had only fired off one nf his roaster's pistole. It afterwards appeared he had tired it into the waiuscot; it was loadecfwitti ball, and the bullet from the pistol is yet to be seen OUNDLE.

His'Lordship bad sent General D'Urban to alarm the enemy's flank, and he had compelled the French to abandon Toro and Zamora. General D'Urban had re- crossed the Douro upon the appearance of General Foy with a superior force. In Estreniadura the enemy bad advanced to Santa Martha, and cut off a body of Spanish cavalry ; but our troops had come up with their rear at A^ eucbel, and drove them through that place to Usagre, with loss. From the North of Spain some gratifying advices were yesterday received by means of a vessel arrived at Liverpool from Gijon. They are dated the 12th instant, and state that Mr. Kelly, the British Consul, had returned to Gijon, and resumed his fftnetions; General Bonnet having re- treated from thence with the utmost precipitation, without having had time to collect the contributions he had ordered to be imposed upon the inhabitants. Mendizabel was on the confines of La Montana, and Sir Home Popliam was on his way to St. Andero, the garrisoi\ of which be was ex- pected to subdue with very little difficulty. It is impossible to contemplate the present state of affairs in Spain without indulging an ardent hope that the period of the deliverance of that country may soon he expected. Lord Wellington is- rapidly advancing in a north- east di- rection, and the Enemy is as rapidly retreating before him. — The French have evacuated Gallicia and the Asturias, and it. is pretty clearly ascertained, that they are not safe even in Biscay. There is every reason to hope, that a very considerable force will speedily be organized in the Northern provinces of Spain. The only apprehension that could lately be entertained was that Soult would have been able to collect a force too numerous for General Hill to contend against, and that by threatening the Southern part of Portugal, he would have prevented Lord Wellington from penetrating into Spain. Soult, however, has not ventured to advance, or to make any attempt upon General Hill's position. It is impossible to give too much praise to Government for the promptitude and secrecy with which sS large a force has been collected and landed in Catalonia.— Such a force, co- operating with the brave, numerous, and . activeCatalonians, will, it is hoped, be sufficient to recover that province from the hands of the French. At all events, it will give full employment to the French troops in that quarter, and prevent any reinforcements from being sent to Soult. Under all these circumstances it is not unreasonable to look forward to a glorious teiViination of the Campaign. Advices were yesterday received from the French coast to the 21st inst. They state that all the private letters from Poland by the last conveyance had been stopped by order of Bonaparte, in order that nothing should appear to con. tradict the statements given in the Bulletins from tha NORTHAMPTON, SATURDAY EVENING, Jvir 25. -">*<— BIRTH ] On Wednesday se'nnight, at MMt ii- M'-. vbray Leicestershire, Lady Eliiabeth Norman; of a sou. • ' MARRIED.] On Wednesday se'nnight, \ K , IUm Aspev.

James Randall, of Beaconsfield, Bucks, and John Palmer, of Rickmansworth, Herts, Gents, were gazetted on Saturday, as Masters Extraordinary in the High Court of Chancery." The parish of Sawbridgeworth, Herts, has been thrown into great consternation bv a 1/ jyman, who has commenced taking his tithes in kind— a circumstance never beforo known in the parish. At the Derby assizes, one' prisoner only; for burglary, was capitally convicted, but afterwards reprieved. At Nottingham, six criminals received sentence of death, one of whom, Benjamin Renshaiv, for arson and felony, was left for execution. ' Trial and Conviction of Dutcson.—' This trial, which ex- cited so much interest iu the Sporting World, came on at Cambridge on Wednesday last; The prisoner was arraigned on four indictrrtents, with nu- merous Counts, viz. for poisoning a horse belonging to Mr. Adams, of Royston, Herts, and a blood mare, belon^ in"- to Mr. Northey, at. Newmarket, in 1809 ; and also for poisoning: a horse belonging to Sir F> StUndish, and another belonging to Lord Foley, in 1811, at ihe same place, He was tri'ejl and cwnvicted on the first ease only. The principal witness was C( Bishnp, an accomplice with the prisoner., He proved having been for sorrte time acquainted with Dawson, and that on application to him, he had fu nislied him with corrosive sublimate lo sicken horses, ; is a friend of Ins had been tricked hv ptiysicing his horse, which was about to run a match. He went nn to prove that Dawson an i hint had become progressively acquainted, and that on the prisoner complaining that Ihe stuff was not strong enough, lie prepared him a solution of arsenic. Witness described this as not offeusive in - mell, the prisoner having informed him that the horses had thrown up their heads, and refused to partake of the water into which the corrosive sublimate had been infused. The prisoner complained the stuff was not strong enough, ; ind on being informed if it w. il made strong it would kill rh » horses, lie replied he did nol mind that, the Newmarket frequenters were rogues, and if lie, meaning witness', had a fortune to lose, they would plunder iiin of it. The prisoner afterwards informed witness he used the stuff, which wa< then strong enough, as it had killed a hackney and two brood mare:,. ' I he Other part of Bishop's testimony went to prove the cas « against the prisoner. Mrs. Tillbrook, a respectable housekeeper, nt Newmarket. where the Prisoner lodged, proved having found a bottle nf liquid concealed uuder Dawson's bed, previous to the liMisrs having been poisoned, I ihnt Dawson was out late on the Saturday and Sumlay evenings previous to thatevent, which took platje on the Monday. After ljawson had left the lioose she found the bottle, which she identified as having contained the said liquid, and which achy mist proved t<> have contained pnison. Witness also proved that Dawson had cautioned her that he had poison in the hnuse for so my dogs, lest any on > should have the curiosity, to taste it. Other witnesses proved a chain sf circumstances, which left no doubt of the urisuuer's guilt. Mr. K ins, fnr the Prisoner, took a legal objection, that no criminal offence had been committed, and that the subject was a matter of trespass. He contended, that the indictment must fall, as | t was necessary to prove that the prisoner had malice against Ihe owner uf the horse, to impoverish him, and not against tile animal. He also contended that the object of the prisoner was to injure, and not to kill. The objections, however, were overruled without reply, and the prisoner Was convicted. The Judge pronounced sentence of Death on the pri nner, and informed him, in strong language, lie could not expect mercy to be extended to hiiu. Com- Exchange, London, Friday, July 24.

Copy of a l. etter addressed hy the French Minister o f Foreign Affairs to Lord Casttcreagh, Secretary of Slate for Foreign A£ uirs to his Britannic Majesty 70 }, b Paris, April IT, 1812. < 1 Silt. His Majesty, constantly actuated by sentiments friendly to moderation and peace, is pleased again to make a solemn and sincere attempt 10 put an end to the miseries of war. The an fill circumstances in which Ihe world Is al present id iced, iuive induced a resolution in the mind of his Majesty. the r.-- nil of which has been, to authorize me to explain to you, Stt his views aud intentions. Many changes have taken e in I 11 rope for the last ten years, which have been the Jieci'- ary consequence of the war between France and Eng- land. nd many more changes will be effected by the same cause. The particular character which the war lias assumed, may add to the extent and duration of Ihese results. Exclusive a d arbitrate prim iples cannot be combated but by an oppo- gi 1 ion without measure or end: and the system of preservation and resistance should have the same character of universality, perseverance, and vigour, The peace of Amiens, if it had been observed, would have prevented much confusion.— I heartily wi.. h that the experience of Ihe past may not be lost for 1 nr future. His Majesty has often stopped when ihe most certain triumphs lay before him. and mined roulid to invoke peace. In 1805, secure as he was by the advantages of his situation, and- pile of Ihe confidence which lie might reason- ably feel in anticipations which fortune was about to realize, he made proposals to his Britannic Majesty, which were rejected, on the grimml lhat Russia should be consulted. In 1808, new proposals were made, in concert with Russia. England alledgtd Ihe necessity of an intervention which could be r, o more than the result of ihe negociatiun itself. I11 1810, his Majest , having clearly discerned that the British Orders in CmincM of 1807. rendered the conduct of the war incom- patible with the independence nf Holland, caused indirect overtures 10 be made towards procuring the return of peace. Tiiev were fruitless, and the consequence iva « , lhat new pro- vinces were united to the empire. In the. present lime are to be found united all Ihe circumstances of the various periods al w hich his Majesty manifested the pacific sentiments which be now orders me againto declare that he is actuated by. Th calamities under which Spain, aud the vast regions of Spanish America suffer, should naturally excite the interest of all nations, and inspire them with an equal anxiety for their termination. 1 will express m. self. Sir, in a manner which your Excellency will find conformable to Ihe sincerity of the slep w hich I am authorized 10 take; and nothing will better evince the sincerity and sublimity of it than the precise terms of the language which I have been directed to use. What views and motives should induce me lo envelope myself in formalities suitable lo weakness, which alone can find its interest in deceit ? " The affairs of the Peninsula, and the Two Sicilies, are the points of difference which appear least to admit of being adjusted. I am authorised lo propose to you an arrangement of them 011 Ihe following basis:— The integrity of Spain shall be guaranteed.— France shall renounce all idea of ex tending her dominions beyond the Pyrenees. The prijfent Dvnu. lv shall be declared independent, and Spain shall he governed bv a National Constitution of her Cortes, The independence and integrity of I'orlugal shall be also guaran teed, and the House of Braganza shall have Ihe Sovcrei authority. The kingdom of Naples shall remain in possession of the present Monaich, and tbe kinxdom of Sicily shall he guaranteed to the present family of Sicily.— As a consequence of Ihese stipulations, Spain, Portugal, and Sicily shall be evacuated hy the French and English land and naval forces • Willi respect to the other objects of discussion, they may be negocialed upon this basis, lhat each power shall retain lhat of which the other could not deprive it hy war. Such are Sir, the grounds of couciliutlon offered by his Majesty to hi Royal Highness Ihe Prince Regent. His Majesty the Emperor and King, in taking this step, does not look either to tlie advantages orl » i? ses which this Empire may derive from the war, if it should he prolonged : he is influenced simply by the considerations of Ihe interests of humanity, and the peace of his people, and if this fourth . attempt should not be altended with success, like those which have preceded it, France will at least, have the consolation of thinking that whatever blood may yet flow, will he justly imputable to England alone. 1 have the honour, Sic.

Secretary of State for Foreign .- iffairs of his Britannic Majesty, to the Letter of the Minister for Foreign Relations, of the 11th of April. 1812. " London, Office for Foreign Affairs, April S3, 1SI " SIB,— Your Excellency's letter of the 17th of this month has been received and laid before Ihe Prince Regent. His Royal Highness fell lhat he owed it to his honour, before he should autbo- ize me to enter into any explanation upon the overture which your Excellency has transmitted, to ascertain the precise meaning attached by the Government of France to the follow ing passage of your Excellency's leiter, ' Ihe actual Dynasty shall be declared independent, and Spain governed In Ihe national Constitution of the Cortes.' If, as his Royal . liighnes? fears, the meaning of this proposition is, that the Royal authority of Spain, and the Government established by Ihe Cortes, shall be recognized as residing in the brother of Ihe Head of ihe French Government, and theCorles formed under his authority, and no I in the legitimate Sovereign, Fer- dinand the Seventh, aud his heirs, and Ihe Extraordinary Assembly of Ihe Cortes, now invested with the power of the Government in thai kingdom, in his name, and by his autho rity — 1 am commanded frankly and explicitly to declare to your Exccllency, that the obligations of good faith do not permit his Royal Highness to receive a proposition for peace founded 911 suet) a basis. But if the expressions cited above, apply lo Ihe actual government of Spain, which exercises { lie Sovereign authority iu the name of Ferdinand the VII, upon an assuranor of your Excellency to lhat effect, the Prince Regent will feel himself disposed to enter into a full explanation upon the basis which has bei'i transmitted, in order to be taken into consideration by his Royal Highness 1 and it being his most earnest wish to contribute, in concert with his Allies, to the repose of Europe, and to bring about 11 peace, which may be at once honourable, not only for Great Britain and France, but also for those Slates which are in relations of amity with each of these powers. 41 Having made known without reserve the sentiments of the Prince Regent, with respect to a point on which it is necessary to have a full understanding, previous to aDy ulte- rior discussion, I shall adhere to the instructionsof his Royal Highness, ; by avoiding all superfluous comment and recri- mination 011 the accessary Objects of your letter. I might advantageously, for the justification of the conduct observed by Great- Britain at the different periods alluded to by your Kxcellency, refer to the correspondence which then took place, and to the judgment which tiie world has long since formed of it. As to the particular character Ihe war lias un- happily assumed, and the arbitrary principle which your Ex- cellency conceives to have marked its progress, denying, as I do, that Ihese evils are attributable 10 the British Government, at Hie samfc time I can assure your Excellency, lhat it sin- cerely deplores their existence, as uselessly aggravating the calamities of war, and that its most anxious desire, whether at peace or al war with France, is, lo have the relations nf the two countries restored to ( he liberal principles usually acted upon in former times.

In the House of Lords on Friday, Lord Holland moved the second reading of his Bills for repaintip< r ' he powers vested in the Attorney General <> f filing informations ex- afficio. The Noble Lord dwelt very forcibly 011 the oppression and injus- tice lo which Ihe subject was daily liable from such powers being entrusted to a single individual, and urged many very forcible arguments to prove that proceeding hv indictment, before a Grand Jury, ralher than hy exrofficio information, was most consonant with the spirit of the English Constitution. Lord Ellenborough opposed the motion, and went into a history of the law to prove its legality. Lord Erskine contended that his Lordship had said nothing to prove, thai a man was more certain pf having justice done him by looking for it from the feelings of an Attorney- General, rather than from Ihe justice of a Grand Jury. The House divided 011 a motion of Lord Ellenborough, " that the Bills be rejected;" which was carried, 16 against 9, and they were therefore thrown out. On Monday in the House of Commons, Lord Castlereagh moved the Order of the Day for the third reading of the Toler- ation Act Amendment, Bill. Mr. W. Smith said, that the unanimity wilh which the present Bill bad passed through the House, was a most favour- able omen of the increasing liberality of Ihe present times. He could have wished that this Bill had gone a little further, and had granted complete religious liberty. As an Act of Toleration it was the most complete that had ever been passed. The Toleration Art had been formerly construed, by the Magistrates, a- allowing them, at their discretion, to refuse qualifications, instead of confining I he exemptions within the bounds of the law.— A Ntrtile Lord ( SidinoullO had attempted to rectify, by his Bill, the misconstructions which had taken place, but ihis Bill gave great alarm to the Dissenters in general. He thought the present Bill would remove the practical evils which the Dissenters h. ad to complain of, although it did not recognise the great principle which they maintained, thai the Civil Magistrate had no right to interfere in matters of religious opinions, and that every man was entitled to profess or promulgate them, provided he did not disturb 111- public peace. Mr. Perceval had consented, that what had been the practice with respect to the Dissenters, should he made law ; and the present Bill would be fell by all the Dissenters as a great advantage gained, inasmuch as it removed the arbitrary discrelion of Magistrates, and required no other oath except Ihe oath of allegiance. He would have wished lhat the Bill had gone farlher, and recognized reli- gious liberty to its utmost extent; hut as it stood, he conceived it a great point gained, lie concluded by moving a clause, " to continue theexemptions now enjoyed under the Toleration Act, without requiring a fresh oath." The Chancellor of the Exchequer had no objection to the clause, as continuing the exemptions to those who now have them, without putting them to farther trouble. Mr. Whithread warmly approved of Ihe Bill. He consi- dered that it was an advantage and a boon lo the Dissenters, and at the same time a prop and support 10 the Established Church, which rested on nothing more firmly than the com- plete liberty of religion. The Bill was then read a third lime, and Mr. Smith's clause being added lo tile Bill, it was passed.

To JAMES RYMER, Surgeon, ' Reigatc^ SIR, Rochester, July7, 1S19. In the Month of March, 1811, I was seized with a Paralytic Affection in the right Side of my Head and face: — My Strength left me, so that I could hariily walk; my Countenance much drawn and distorted ; a general Debility took place ; and my Limbs, upon the slightest Exertion, were overwhelmed with Fatigue. At the same Time Sounds of every Sort were very dis- tressing to me; the Noise occasioned by the Tea- Cup's and Saucers made me almost Faint away ; the Sound of my own Voice, and the Voices of others in Conversation, gave me great Unea> iness. If 1 took up a Book, I was unable to read it with any Degree of Attention to the Subject of it. In short, all the Faculties of mv Body, and, in some Measure, those bf my Mind, were sadly all'cted by this awful and distressing Stroke of Palsy. Providentially forme, I accidentally heard of your invaluable Cardiac Tincture, and determined to try it. By the Time I had taken Half a Dozen Doses of it, I perceived the Symptoms ot returning Strength. After 1 had continued taking it for some Time, my Face gradually returned to its regular Form ; mv Limbs resumed their Strength ; mv Mind its usual Activity ; and I can now walk five Miles with Ease and Pleasure, and read as many Hours without Fatigue, and with Attention to the Sub- ject. Noises are. no longer paintul to me, and 1 can enjov the Conversation of my Friends. In short, I am now so well in Health as to have the peculiar Satisfaction of discharging all the Duties of my Church with great Ease. Under the Blessing of Divine Providence, I must attribute my Recovery to the Use of your invaluable Cardiac Tincture ; and I desire to give this public Testimony of its Efficacy, in order that all who are afflicted with Palsy may know that this excellent Medicine will relieve them, the Use of which 1 do most earnestly recommend.

ESSENCE of PEARL and PEA RL DENTIFRICE, I. invented by the late JACOB HEMET, Dentist to her Majesty and the Princeof Wales, are greatly superior, both in Elegance and Efficacy, to any Thing hitherto made Use of; they will efiectunlly preserve the Teeth in a sound State even to old Age; will render them white and beautiful without the least impair- ingthe Enamel, fasten such as are loose, keep such as are already decayed from becoming worse, prevent the T'ooth- ache, perfectly cure the Scurvy in the Gums, ar. d make them grow firm and close to the Teeth, ' l'hey likewise render the Breath delicately sweet, and remedy all those Disorders that are the Consequence of Scorbutic Gums and bad Teeth. They continue to be sold.

EY & BLEW, Cockspur- Street," engraved in the Stamp, and a Label " Bayley & Blew, Cockspur- Street, • London," pasted on the Back ot each Bottle and B » x. N. B. The ESSENCE is particularly recommended to Parents and Persons who have the Care of Children, as the greatest pre- servative of young and tender Teeth. NEWTON'S DENTIFRICE IS liv far the most pleasant of any Powder recommended for . CLEANSING and BEAUTIFYING the Teeth; it will be found to answer every End that a Tooth Toivder can be reason- ably expected to do, while it cleanses the MOUTH of all impure and fee; id Particles, it WHITENS theTEETH, HEALS the GUMS, and helps to SWEETEN the BREATH. Nothing is so great a Drawback to BeauVy as bad Teeth, nothing more offensive than fcetid Breath; NEWTON'S TOOTH- POWDER, on the fint Application, improves the former, and removes the latter, while its antiputrescent and balsamic Qualities pre- vent Decay, and remove all Excrescences.

GUTTA S ALUT ARJS, IS a certain Cure for Venereal, Glandular, and cu- taneous Disorders, Gleets, & c — A Bottle or two will convince the PatieRt of its salutary Eifects ; a few large Bottles have effected a Cure, after Salivation, and every other Means have proved abortive, and even when the Disorder has been standing several Years.
