PRINTED AND PUBLISHED, FOR THE PROPRIETORS, I3Y G. F. HARRIS. VOL VIII. No. - SATURDAY, MARCH 4, 1809. PRICE SIXPENCE. WEDNESDAY'S POST. LONDON, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY38. Til E Brest fleet has put to sea. ' 1 ins circum- stance was communicated to the Admiral'.) en Saturday evening by a telegraphic dispatch. It was ascertained by one of our frigates left on that station, that the enemy's force consisted of * inesailof the line, and the Racoon was imme- diately dispatched to Portsmouth with the intel- ligence. The enemv's escape from port occurred oil Tuesda) last, and the same day Lord Gambier sailed from Tovbay to resume his station off Brest • with nine sail of the line. His Lordship was, of course, immediately acquainted with the depar- ture of the French squadron. The intelligence was posted at Lloyd's in the following terms:— " Portsmouth, Pel. 25.— The Paven sloop, arrived from the Channel fleet, reports that the Brest fleet put to sea on the 21st, nine sail of the line." By the fzleprapljic orc/ er issued yesterday, all the line of battleships in the Downs were directed to sail for i'l} mouth as soon as possible. On Sa- lurdaj an order was received at Plymouth to send all the line of battle ships to sea directly to join. Sir B. Ntracliati off Rochetort, it being not improba- ble that the Brest flt- et may be destined in the lirsl instance to Rochtfort, to get out the squadron lying in that harhour. Government have received dispatches from Ad- miral K' ates, stating that the apprehensions which • were entertained for the safety of our fleet in the Sound were unfounded. 1 hey are dated oil Ciot- tenburgh: say that our squadron was in safety, - with tiie exception of the Magnet sloop, vvhic^ - was lost; but the crew were saved. The Sound is now completely open. Portuguese papers to the loth inst. brought to Falmouth by the' Princess Charlotte Packet, in six days from the Tag us, contain a proclamation, issued on the 4th, by the Portuguese Government, in consequence of an insult offered to the British. It appears that Mr. Vilii ' rs antl his suite had made preparations for embarking on board the Venus, XJanish frigate. At the moment when his baggage; vas ab iu'to be put on Hoard, a Portuguese mob, suspecting that some of the remains of. the treasure of Portugal had been secreted, seized the baggage and servants, who were thrown into prison. Mr. " Villiers lost no time in remonstrating against the " violence of th • proceeding: and the Government published the proclamations in question. The Princess Charlotte sailed from Lisbon in tempestu- ous weather, and such as has not usually been considered safe for vessels to leave the Tagus ; buL the intelligence which had been received from Trieste was considered of too much importance to be delaved by any difficulty, and ihe packet was ordered at all hazards to put to sea. It was the ' general understanding at Lisbon, that Austria had actual)* declared war against France. The'suspu i" ns of the t rench Ambassador Cavt- lainconrt being excited by the frequent interviews - which the Prussian Mie'ster of . Mate, Raro- i Scla- den ( A ho had attended their Majesties to Peiers- btirgli) had villi the Austrian embassy, it is said he caused a Piussian officer, of the name of Brugor, • who was entrusted with dispatches lor Berlin, & c. to be followed and murdered, and his papers se- cured. Amongthesewas a letter from the Queen to her father, expressive of IKi hopes that tiie war • w hich Austria was about to wage, in which Alex- < ler was strongly, although hitherto unsuccessfully, urged to join, would lend to restore her husband to 1 lis former rank in Europe. To this is attributed the sudden departure of Bonaparte from Spain to F ranee. Advice, it is said, has been received by Govern- ment, that the Spaniards had refused to permit the disembarkation of troops at Cadiz. French papers arrived yesterday. They were brought by some vessels," the masters of which bad either bribed, or eluded the vigilance ol the custom- house officers in the French ports Some private accounts state, that Josepii Bona- parte, and all the French troo, is at Madrid, were prepating to depart from that city, Marshal Latines Saving received positive orders from Napoleon to march the whole of the forces under his command back to France. Montreal, Dec. 6.- " Our trade this year has been brisk: our wheat crop turns out very good, and as additional mills are established, 1 have no doubt but we shall have from sixty to one hundred thousand barrels of flour to spare for the W est Indies next season, and a sufficiency of tim- ber for them, could it be ascertained for a certainty that the Americans would be interdicted to the islands, the uncertainty of which has prevented suppliesgoingthis year. Our exports have exceeded one million sterli'ng, and 40 ship loads of timber remain for want of vessels to carry it away. A great quantity of wood will be cut this winter, so that we shall " be able to furnish a tolerable supply, should matters not be settled in the north of Europe."

From the Hon. and Right Reverend the Lord Bishop ot CARLISLE, to Mr. CHING, Apothecary, Cheapside, London. SIR, I readily embrace the opportunity your letter affords me, of adding my testimony to that of the Lord Chief Baron in favour of vour CHLNG's PATENT WORM MEDICINE, my eldest* son having, a few months ago, derived very material benefit from the use of it. He had been unwell for several weeks previous to his taking it; appeared pale and emaciated, was lan- guid, and complained frequently of pains in his head and side. The Lord Chief Baron, who had accidentally seen him in this state, fortunately recommended to me the trial of your Lozenges ; and that no time might be lost, or any mistake might occur, in obtaining the genuine Medicine, sent me three doses of it. The first of these occasioned a visible amendment, and after the second dose every unpleasant symptom disappeared, but I judged it right to give the third, as the two former/ had agreed so uncommonly well. From that time my son has been in perfect health, and I certainlv attribute his cure wholly to the efficacy of the Worm Lozenges. I have since re- commended your Lozenges in several instances, wherein I have the satisfaction to assure you, they have uniformly : been of great service. I ought to add, that from the nature of the effect produced by them in my son's case, I apprehend the complaint to have arisen from an ob- struction between the stomach and viscera. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, Rose Castle, Dec. 7. ' E. CARLISLE.

THE ANGELICAL: Or, FAMIL Y PILLS of GRULINGIUS. THIS medicine has been strongly recom- mended by the most eminent physicians of the age, as a most admirable remedy for all disorders of the stomach and bowels. It specifically cures scurvy, jaundice, cachexia and green sickness, it opens all obstructions of the liver, spleen, mesentary, and womb ; it cleanses the stomach and bowels from corrupt humoiirs; kills worms in young and old ; and is an excellent medicine against the gout, agues, fevers, and consumptions, by causing the evacuation of the febrifick matter; it strengthens the stomach, expels choler, and provokes appetite ; it evacu- ates thick phlegm and other gross humours from the head, joints, and other remote parts. It has been found of ex- cellent use in lethargies, cares, vertigoes, old head- aclu, megrims, epilepsies, apoplexies, and other the like cold and moist diseases of the brain.; being often taken, they cause old ulcers, running ulcers, malignant and inveterate fistuies to heal speedily, and it is so perfectly ionoceut and mild a medicine thai it may be given with perfect safety at any age, except to very small infants. The foregoing are the observations of Gruiingius himself, who was an eminent practitioner, and who prescribed this medicine in all the above cases, and seldom found it iVd ia cuxing the patient, because, » s it cleaubes Uje blood from all corrupt humours and impurities, It destroys the primary cause of those disorders.

This work is handsomely printed in duodecimo, and it is presumed that this interesting and authentic document will find a place in the library of every Briton. The very great curiosity which at present engages the public mind, will certainly induce many incorrect publi- cations, purporting to be Accounts of the Investigation of the Charges against the Duke of York ; but which upon pe- rusal will be found onlv extracts from Newspapers. To give also the appearance of cheapness to publications, which cannot be contracted without evident disadvantage, others have compiled mere abridgements, which can af- ford no real information. The public are therefore request ed to be very particular in giving1 their orders for STRATFORD's ACCURATE EDITION, printed in duodecimo, and taken from the most authentic documents, official papers, and other important evidences authority. CORDIAL BALM OF G1LEAD. NERVOUS DEBILITY. " The Lord hath caused Medicines to grozv out of the earth, and he that is wise zvill not abhor them ; for zvith such doth he heal men ami take away their pain." ECCL. Ixxxviii. 4 7. *~ r"\ HIS Cordial has been uncommonly suc- JL cessful with young people, who have the appear- ance and air of old age; who are pale, effeminate, be- numbed, stupid, and even imbecile; whose bodies are become bent, whose legs are no longer able to carry them j who hav « an utter distaste for every thing, and are totally- incapacitated. Where the stomach is frequently disor- dered the body is weakened ; paleness, bodily decay, and emaciation succeed, and the eyes sink into the head. The virtues of the Cordial Balm of Gilead are daily demon- strated in eradicating the worst and most dangerous symp- toms of nervous debility ; and nothing has ' tended so much to establish the fame of this medicine as its cer- tain success in those complaints which strike their roots so deep in the constitution, and are so fatal lo the happiness of mankind. The Cordial Balm of Gilead lias risen in repute to the very pinnacle of fame. Universally as it is resorted to in cases of weakness and emaciation, so also are its beni- nx and health- restoring qualities universal. Some, perhaps, unacquainted with its virtues, not having perused that in- teresting ' Guide,( which must be but few indeed) may be induced to ask what i3 the Balm of Gilead lit for ? what complaint doth it cure ?— To answer this it would be necessary to Hold up the Mirror to Nature." Let those who are afflicted m the following manner re- flect on the cause that produced such havoc upon ( he % t wholesome appetites and powers of life:"— disordered stomach, dry cough, weakness in the voice, hoarseness, shortness of breath upon the least exercise, and relaxation of tliQ whole system. Those afflicted with paleness, lan- guor of the e\ es, weakness of the sight or memory, should take Linnscus's advice/ that " youth is the im- portant period for forming a robust constitution/' and. ( hat nothing is to be dreaded so much as prematura excess.'* The foundation of a happy old age is a good constitution in youth ; temperance and moderation at that age are passports to happy grey hairs.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1. CAPTAIN Dundas, of the Naiad, of J6 guns, arrived this morning at the Admiralty, with dispatches from Admiral Lord Gambler. They state that t he Brest fleet ( 3 sail) arrived off Hot hefort on the 26Ut, and that the British fleet, under his Lord- ship's command, arrived off that place on the same day. The enemy did not afford any opportunity of bringing them to battle ; but « n our appearance crowded all sail, and effected their escape into Basque Roads, where they were left close') block- aded by our fleet when Captain Dundascameaw ay. It is thought that it was the intention of the enemy, 1 w hen they sailed from Brest, to join the Kor hefort squadron of five ships of the line, in the Bay, and from thence to proceed together to Ferrol, and, having joined the Spanish fleet, fosleer for Cadi*, then to join the Toulon fleet. Dispatches from Admiral Cochrane, from the Windward Islands, state that he has intercepted let- ters, giving an account to the Governor of Marti, nique that immediate reinforcements were to be sent thither from France, with a fleet that would secure its safe arrival.* If this letter could be relied on, we might believe that the French fleet now sailed was destined for the West Indies. Accounts from Barbadoes have been received to the 13th of January. Nothing had from that dale been undertaken against Martinique, and She ar- mament remained at Barbadoes. Some of the last letters from Lisbon state, thata very considerable number of the stragglers belong- ing fo Sir John Moore's army, who were left behind in consequence of the rapidity, with which ourarmy retreated, have arrived in Portugal, and many of them have even reached Lisbon. Sir David Baird is immediately to be elexated to the Peerage, with the title of Viscount. Sir John Moore's family are to have pensions. General Hope is to be made a Baronet, and get the first red ribbon. Fatal Duel.— Yesterday morning, about nine o'clock, a meeting took place at Chalk Farm, be- tween Lord Falkland, a captain in the Iloyal Navy, and Powell, Esq. of Devonshire- place, an intimate friend of the Duke of Clarence. ' 1 hey were attended to the ground, the former by Sir Charles Cotton, of the Navy, and the latter by Ross, Esq. lately in the 17th Light Dragoons. The distance of ten paces being stepped, and the pistols loaded by the seconds, the parlies took their ground, when, by etiquette, Mr. Powell beijig entitled to the first shot, his ' null fatally entered the right groin of Lord Falkland. The wound is pro- Bounced mortal. The rrause of this fatal duel arose from a misunderstand,' ing that took place the night before at Stevens's Hotel, in Bond- street, from Lord Falkland addressing Mr. Powell by the familiar appellation of 1' cgey ; on which the latter expres- sed much disp'. easure, remarking, " that he had not the honour - of being sufficiently acquainted with him, to enf'ule his Lordship lo lake so great a liber- ty." l>; is drew from Lord F. a sarcastic reply, accompanied by some threats; on which Mr. P. rejoiced, that," he had that in his hand ( meaning his stick,) which would defend him against ain f/ pnace, even from a Lord." Lord Falkland, On the instant, snatched a cane from some gentle- man in the room, and, as it is reported, struck Mr. P. matrv severe blows with it. The consequence was a challenge from tils' latter. After the duel, Lord Falkland was conveyed to ( he house of Mr. Powell, in Devonshire- place, in the latter gentle- man's carriage. Lady Falkland was kept ignorant of the calamitous eveut through nearly the whole of yesterday, at her apartments at Dorant's Ho- tel," Albeniarle- street. About seven o'clock in the evening, however, she received some information respecting it, and proceeded, with her children, to Devonshire- place, to visit his Lordship. Cadiz and Seville Gazettes have reached town to the lOtli instant. They contain an official account of an action before Saragossa on Dec 2lst. 1 In- enemy advanced with seven columns of infantry, a large bod v of cavalry, and a considerable train of artillery, to invest die suburb on the Other side of the river. After a hard- fought action, which lasted five hours, the main body of the enemy fell back, and the ' reserve advanced with great impetuosity. The Spanish troops were for a short time thrown iiito . disorder, but soon recovered themselves, » •!<• finally defeated the enemy, who left under the walls'and in front of the batteries 5,000 men killed, and as many wounded. On the same d:. v an at- tack was made by about 800 French, oh the fortress of San Josef, but they were alts put to flight. Several skirmishes took place on the | 2d, 23d, ami 24th, in the environs of San Josef, m which the Spaniards were equally successful. On the 22d, a summons was sent into the city by the French com- mander, Marshal Moncey, deniandit « t it. surren- der. On the same day the following ans « er - wal. returned bv General Palafox :— " The General in Chief. of the army of reserve is re- sponsible for the pity of Sarasrossa This beautiful city Witt never surrender. The Imperial Marshal will observe all - the lau- s of war, ar, d will measure his strength with me. I maintain a communication with all parts ofthe peninse'a, and am in wa.; t of nothing. 60,000 uven resolved to fight know no other reward than honour, and as little do I who eoipmand them. I hold this honour, and I would not exchange it for all the empires in the world. Ilis Excellency Marshal Mou- sey will cover himself with glory if he - eats me, with n dufe observance of all tlie laws of war; mine will be no less, if I defsud myself. What I wish to impre •-', upon your Exc Tleiiev is, thot my troops will fight as men of honour, aud that I disown and disavow those oppressive measures which the old Montkaitof France held in abhorence. A siege is a matter cf uo impor- tance to the man who is determined to di- honourably, mote particularly as - I already know its effects, from the last seige of 61 days. If I did not then ttiiak. of surrendering with ail inferior force, your Excellency ought not to expeer that ( should do so now, when my - force'exceeds that of ail the ami es which surround me. The Spanish blood that has been shed covers u with glory, in the same proportion as it reflects igno- miny upon the French arms to have shed it ui u- tly. The Marshal of t e Empire will reflect, that the en- thusiasm of eleven millions of inhabitants is not to he extinguished by oppression ; aud that he who resolves to be free, is so. Ii is far from tt. y wish . to shed the blood of those whom I arn appointed to govern: but there is not one among them who would not shed il with pleasure in defence of his country. The French troops left yestei day at our gates abundant confirma- tions of this truth. We have scarcely lost a man ; and 1 conceive that it more properly becomes me to talk to the Marshal of surrendering, if lie has not a mind to lose the whole of his army within the walls of this fortress. That prudence which characterizes him, and gives him the reputation of being a good man, cannot behold such havoc with indifference, more es- pecially as it is not war, nor ti e Spaniards, thai oc- casion or authorise it. If Madrid has capitulated, Madrid must have been sold, and that i cannot Be- lieve; but Madrid is no more than an open town, and therefore fnrnUbes no reason why this place should, surrender. I have the honour of addressing your Excellency, Marshal Muneey, in the language I am acquainted with, and of assuring you that I will perform my most sacred duties," General Lasnes, who was ordered lo join Marshal Moncey, has since received contrary instructions, and with 30,000 men, is now crossing the eastern I'yreivSes at the pass of Bellegarde. " News is received of the safe arrival of the John transport, with several officers and men on board. Th<- John was one of the transports in General Shevbiooke's expedition, and was the only one missing. Great apprehensions were entertained for her safety. A few evenings since, Kensington Palace was found to be on fire,- hut being timely discover- ed, it was prevented from spreading. HOM HOUSE, HEREFORDSHIRE.

HOPES are entertained, when Sir Join) Duck- worth comes up, of our being, able to lake or destroy the Brest fleet, as they cannot get out without taking out their a, nn « ,; and the larger ves- sels must take out I heir stores. The Naiad frigate cm her \ ia « aje from Rochefort saw five sail under a press of, canvass: she made the ^ n\ vates>\ e, « a\,\ v\ v. ch the}' did not answer. Up- on Hearing she discovered them tn be three French frigates, most. va\\ aot\ y crowding a\\ the sail they could to make their escape from the Alcmene fri- gate and a cvAUt \ We uvukretiM that aftcr- \ vards observed the Cxsar, Detiance, and Donegal " bring Vhem to action. A French armed brig (. a prize) was standing into Falmouth u hen our cor n spondent was closing \ V\ s\ etter, so that \ t is pvo- babfe the frigates have bent taken. The destination of the West fleet is raid to have been tin; West Indies-, and so it may; but their first object was the surprise, of our small squadron otF Rochefort. The enemy have along ( heir coast signal stations or telegraphs, bv which they . can convey intelligence very ouicfcty from north fo south.' They bad been informed by t) ie telegraph that our blockading squadron oft Rochefori was in the habit of lying at anchor with its sails down. T hey, tluiefore, thought it possible to surprize it in thatpn.- ifion. Accordingly when our fleet was blown offikest, they slipped " out and ran directly for Rocbelort. Tbe Naiad was the look- out fri- c, ate to the northward ol our station off Rochefurt, End deserving the enemy, instantly made the signal to \ dmital Stopford. lie Admiral immediately shifted his stafion into another part of the bay.— The enemv, as soon as they arrived off Rochel'ort, ran for the position in which, tlirir telegraph had taushtlWemto expect our squadron ; and nol find ing it ther>', oonceived it had quitted its station. Tiie\ then put into Basque lloads, between tlociie- fort and Rochdle. Admiral Stopford la\- tomore than two hours, offering them battle. The Caisar, 84, one of his squadron, exchanged shots with ' lie rear ship of the enemy's fleet previously lo Sir T.

Thev have furnished us with another bulletin, the 32d. It is undated ; but contains an account of the occupation of Ferrwfby the French. There, as well as every where else, the people manifested the greatest patriotism, and wished to defend the city agaifist tlieeneniy. Eight thousand flew to arms; but the Admiral « ho commanded the Spanish squadron at Fermi, and i he Governor ot the town, were in the French interest, ami imitat- ing the example oftlie traitor Morla, betrayed the people. A negociathin was entered info, and the place was surrendered on til" 27th of January : t! ie garrison was immediately disanned. " There have been found ( says the bulletin) in the port three vessels of 112 guns, two of S8, one of 74, two of 64, three frigates, and a considerable number of corvettes, bri* s. and unarmed vessels, more than 1,500 pieces of cannon cf every size, and ammunition ' if all kinds.— it is probable that but for the precipitate retreat of She English, and the affair of the 16lh, they would have occupied Ferrol, and seized this beautiful squadron. " General Laborde Ins discovered, at Corunna, on the sea shore, seven pieces of cannon which the English had buried, not being able take them away.— La Roniana, abandoned by the English and hU own troops, lias tied with 500 men, in order to throw Him- t ! f into Andalusia.— Admiral Obregon, whom the people had arrested during the insnirection, has been put at the head ol the arsenal." The bulletin preserves a profound silence with respect to Saragossa, Madrid, I the So* th of Spain. It - ays nothing of the positions or move- ments ei her of the French or Spanish armif*. Joseph Bonaparte made his entrance into Madrid on the 22d of January. According lo the Paris papers the rejoieiugs of the populace were . peat, and we are desired to believe that Joseph i; the object of univer. I respect and atbetion. There is a letter, purporting to be written from Vienna. in the Paris papers, which says:—" In spite o' file military preparations which have taken place throughout the whole extent of the monarch*, « i believe it is certain that all Ihe Em- peror's Ir eliugs ai . for the maintenance ol peace. The public indignatio.! has been so strongly ex- cited against those who desire war, thai it seems they holt.' now a Ifss confident language." Peace, according lo tl e private advices from Paris, is said to have been signed between Great Britain and the Potte. Viscount Falkland died at two'oYlock 11, i « morn- ing.

BANKRUPT LA ITS AI. TEREn. In the House of Commons yesterday, Sir S. Romillv rose to move for leave tn brim; in a bill to amend the Bankrupt laws, ft was desirable alto- gether to abolish the present system, and to substi- tute another; but He confessed that lie possessed not'courage sufficient for the attempt. The points which he had iuncontemplation t<> amend were:— I. That althougu these laws proceeded oil the prin- ciple,- that when a debtor had suirendered up the who'e of His property to his ci editors, lie should thence- forward be free from any action on their part; yet that tbeie actually were many engagements to which a bankrupt ivas'liable, after the commission had ended. I ue inost numerous arose from the circum- stance of pe. sous » vho had previously become surety for the bankrupt. The debts of the bankrupt to such persons no: taking place until ifler the commission, they could not bo proved.— Tin; obvious remedy for this ev;. was, to enable the sureties to prove their debts under the commission, provided they paid the sums for whicn thev were engaged before ttie final dividend. II. That the assignees frequently a-, ail themselves ofthe bankrupt's property to serve theirown purposes. It often happened that in such eases the assign es be- came bankrupts themselves, and then the el- editors o, the first Bankruptcy would ol course come in but for a very small proportion of tiie sums due to them.— His remedy was: that if the creditors at iheii second meeting did not appoint a bank, in w hich the bank- rupt's property might be deposited, it should be im- perative on the" commissioners to appoint such a bank ; and that, if after that appointment, the assignees re- tained the bankrupt's money in their hands, it should be imperative oil the commissioners to charge the as- signees 20 percent, for the money kept by them. III. The great expence attending proceedings under a commission. He should propose, to avoid this ex- pence iu most cases, by providing, that in all actions '. brought bv assignees, notice should be given by the defendant, whether or not he meant to contest any one of those points to which he had alluded ; and that if he Aid, andshoold fail in establishing his case, the assignees should be entitled to recover costs. Instead of actions asainst assignees, for not paying dividends, lie meant to propose the substituti& n of petitions to the Lord Chancellor. IV. To take from the creditor the power which he psa' vssed, of refusing to sign the certificate of the bankrupt, by enroling, that if, two years after his ex- amination, the bankrupt's certificate should not be signed by four- fifths of his cie'ditors, the bankrupt should then petition the Lord Chancellor ( free of ex- pence of the stamp duties) to have his certificate signed, giving to his creditors an opportunity of sub- mitting to his Lordship the grounds on which they thought that their consent should be withheld. He meant tn propose, that all those uueertilicated bankrupts, who, at the present moment had passed their examination above two years, should be entitled to the indulgence of tiie measure. Mr. Martin seconded the motion; and leave was given. V\.\ R!,\ NMF. NT— MONDAY and TUESDAY. LordFo/ kstone's motion for a call of the House on the. Sth March was carried on Monday by a majority of 102 to 15. ft was supported by Ministers. Messrs. Brnikes and Bnthurst, however, objected to a call at so s/ iort a notice, because it was impossible / that Memheis in distant parts, in Scotland or in Ireland, cotifd be acquainted with it lime enough to be in town by the 8th of March. Lord Fotk- slone said, it w as probable, that out of the discus- s: on of next Wednesday other subjects would arise, which would require ihe fullest - attendance of the House. Air. C. ICijnne gave notice of a motion upon the Duke's letter to the Speaker, for Monday se'iwieht. A question was put to Mr. Canning iiv Mr. Port- sonhy, respecting the refusal bv the Spaniards to admit any English troops into Cadiz, though they had entered into a treaty of alliance with us. The former could not answer the enquiry. , Mr. Perceral proposed a clause in the Distilla- tion Bill, lo suspend the intercourse between thetwo countries fill ( he Isf of June, when tbe Committee appointed lo adjust the regulations respecting their permanent intercourse should have repotted. It was agreed to. Gloccsier, Saturday, March 4 THE sudden'return of Bonaparte from Spain, be- fore naviacr, as he promised, put a finishing hand to the great work of obliging that country to submit to the yoke of his brother, has given rise to an abundance of conjccture. It is certainly very improbable, that he would, at the present moment, leave the head of his army, unless some event more important than his presence in Spain had occurred beyond the Pyrenees. What event that can be, is an interesting subject of enqu rv. Whilst one explanation of this movement, refers it to the old and almost- exhausted source— a commotion in France, another, with much greater reason, assigns for its cause, the mc- mying prepara- tions and declared hostile disposition ofthe Austrians. The latter account is discredited by many, who con- ceive, that if the Cabinet of Vienna intended to go to war, it would have chosen tae period whe » Bonaparte was pouring his legions into Spain to put down the opposition of the Patriots. But, for our part, though at present little inclined to believe, that Vustria seriously means to break with France, we con- ceive, she has a more hopeful prospect of success, at this time, than was offered to her before the Spanish campaign commenced. Bonaparte would have to draw the better part of 2.10,000 men from beyond the Pyrenees, to act in the heart of Germany: and before this march coujd be effected, allowing every latitude for the enemy's rapidity, Vustna, if her armies be as numerous and well equipped as it is reported the Arch- iuke Charles has made thein, might have an equal trial of power. The Porte, too, is said to incline more to Austria than Fiance. The Paris papers betray some alarm at tiie extensive military emirts of the Aus- trian Government. Our, opinions will be much assist- ed by the next continental advices. From the want of caution shewn by the Spaniards at Ferrol ( where the French have seized eight sail ) we really d ubt whether t'ae two fleets in Cadiz will not soon re- appear in the navy list of Bonaoarte. To the proceedings of Parliament on Wednesday next, concerning the conduct of the Duke of York, the public most anxiously looks l-. tt- v.. r. I. Mr. \ V., v. i'e preserves a profound secrecy upon the measure which he intends to propose. The JIoristeAviil be ufmsttatly crowded. Though we conceive it premature to de- liver an opi- sion upon tiie merits of tiie whole case, we cannot avoid stating, that the I) iA: e of York's letter to the Speaker appears to be regarded as an interfe- rence not less unacceptable to t . t House, than uu- oeconiing of his c » use. The former cannot be sup- posed capable of pronouncing judgment but. upon " rounds dictated by t e constitution; and the latter cannot, according to that constitution, receive any benefit from self- affirmed innocence. Every allow- ance should be made for the agitation of mind inci- dental to such an occasion : bnt surely the Duke of York would have appeared to greater advantage in letting the proceedings take an uninterrupted course: confiding m tlie integrity of Parliament, for a due ob- servance of the rules of British jurisprudence.

" My consc iousness of innocence leads me eonti- dentlv to hope, that the House of Commons will not, upon s- nch evidence as they have heard, adopt any •. ra- ce ding prejudicial to my honour arid character; but if, Oil such testimony as has been adduced against me, the H.

He saw no cause for that complete de. spoiidencv which seemed to have succeeded sanguine expectation; and he vv as little less disposed to despair of the resnit, when he contemplated tiie yet unsub- dued spirit of the Spanish nation.— Mr. Windham said, that Ministers, from their want of diligence, from their total want of plan, and from the b ind in- considerate way in which they had conducted the campaign, stood condemned before their country.— On a division, there appeared for the motion 127, against it220. A measure of great importance to Ireland was decided on Moilday, on bringing up the report of the Distillation Bill. Sir John Newport moved, that it he recommitted, for the purpose of extend- ing the prohibition of distilling from corn to Iret- l;. n< 1. After a discussion of considerable length upon this motion, the House divided, and there appeared for it 99, against it 61 ; thus leaving Mi- nisters in a minority, 38. The bill was then im- mediately recommitted, and a resolution vvas moved and arceeded to, for placing the English and Irish dis'tlleriesunder the same restriction. Purchases of corn to a great extent were made in Ireland, by persons who speculated largely in that article, rely- ing on the strength of Ministers lhat Mr. Foster's measure must pass. The Duke, in fhe letter above; denies " upon the honour of a Prince" the slightest knowledge or sus- picion that anv infamous transactions existed at all. Mrs. Clarke asserts that Col. French's- levy was procured by her interest; and Miss Taylor gives evidence to a conversation between the Duke and Mrs. Clarke respecting this levy. Amidst these contradictory statements what is to be done, but to put the parties in a situation where evidence may be examined upon oath ? There are, besides, the Duke's two letters, which shew that he did com- municate with his mistress upon matters, not at ali relating to the sexual intercourse between them. We a'lude to the letters relative to General Cover- ing and Dr. O'Mcara. With respect to the last of these letters, we must slate a curious circumstance. The Duke in his letter to Mrs Clarke, dated 4th August, 1804, says, " Dr. O'Meara called upon me yesterday, ami delivered me your tetter— He wishes much to preach before royalty, and if I can put him in the nay of it I trill." The following is an extract from a morning paper of ( he October following, under the head of " Royal Family, H'ei/ mouth, Oct. 3d." "' The Rev. Dr. O'Meara preached on Sunday an ' , ... —,.... ii- r, w'il Leuevolenee. He ex- plained with great eloquence orruTTr rcrm- rT~„ —.. i^ i, the public and private affections bear to each other, and their use in tiie moral system. " Sacred eloquence is certainly in this country feeble and unimpressive ; no other excellence can supply the vra. it of animation. That sweet charm, lhat celestial unction which christian oratoiv demands, this gentle- man possesses in au eminent degree. ' His lips are touched with the live coal from off the altar.' The King was very attentive, and stood for nearly the whole of thi - sermon ( which we never observed before), and expressed his high cijifrrobation to the Eurl of Uxbridge^ end others, whilst the 3ueen and Princesses, and the whole audience, were melted into tears." Now connecting the application of Mrs. Clarke to the Duke in favour of Dr. O'Meara, w ith the letter from the Duke, stating that he will endea- vour to accomplish the Doctor's wish of preach- ing before royalty, and the above sketch of the discourse which the Doctor did preach before roy- ally, Mrs. Clarke will have the credit of having been the cause of a sermon upon universal bene- volence having been preached before the Koyal Family, which produced a great effect upon ilie King, and melted the Queen aud all the Princesses into tears. Moulsham Hall, near Chelmsford, Essex, the seat of the Mildmay family, now about to be pul- l.;: l down, was, prior to I lie Nunnan Conquest, a parcel of the possessions of ihe Abbey Church of St. Peter, Westminster ; hilt, becoming vested in the Crown at the dissolution, was sold by Henry the Eighth, onthe22dof July, 1510, to Thomas Mildmay, Gent, one ofthe Auditors of ihe Court of Augmentations, and ancestor of the present family. Ou Friday night, as Mr. Powell, the performer, of Drury- lane theatre, was standing in Covent- garden to view the conflagration of lhat theatre, a woman near solicited him very strongly to give her some money : Mr. Poweil gave her a shil- ling, and immediately after missed his gold watch and seais. He suspected the woman bad picked his pocket, pursued her, and his watcli was found in her right hand, under her clothes. She was se- cured, and on Saturday examined before Mr. Read, at lie w$ tjeei » who committed her for trial. The American papers of the 27lh ult. contain sufficient proofs of the indignation in which the embargo laws are held, and of the de( ermination of the people to resist them, if the Government do not immediately repeal them, Ships sail in de- fiance of the laws, and the government officers are wholly unable to enforce the orders of the execu- tive. " Some of these officers have resigned, and ( lie military have refused to fire upon a tumultuous meet- ing.— In New England, town meetings have been held, ancl strong resolutions entered into. In Bos- ton, Rhode Island, and other states, the collectors and comptrollers of Ihe customs have resigned their situations, finding jt impossible to maintain them against the will of the people. In Connecti- cut, the merchants and people bad held meetings, at which they bad early and deliberately determin- ed to be the first to set an example of resistance to the oppression of the Government, and no longer submit to tiie privations inflicted on them by tiie embargo law. Several ships had put to sea from New England, in open defiance of tiie embargo instructions.— The batteries were ordered to lire on theln, but obedience was refused, and the vessels suffered to proceed. By the lates( accounts, every circum- stance tended to prove the general hatred of Ihe people to the embargo system, which if not imme- diately removed, was likely to produce the most serious consequences to ( be Union. Accounts are received from New York, of Ihe 29th of January, by which it appears that an Ame rican ship, laden with slaves aud lumber for the West- India Islands, broke through the new regu- lation bill, in defiance of every attempt to prevent her sailing. An immense concourse of people was assembled cm the quays, and cheered the ship as she cleared from ihe harbour. Several shots were fired al her from the batteries, which parsed through her rigginp, without causing stilli- cient damage ( o prevent her escape. The bold- ness of the example will encourage imitation. On Friday evening, about seven o'clock, the Earl of Orlord died at bis house in Bruton- street. He is succeeded in his title and estates by his son, Lord Walpole. The remains of the young woman vho unfortu- nately lost her life in the conflagration at St. James's Palace have been found. They were almost reduced to ashes. A few days ago, an extraordinary effort of ani- mal strength was witnessed bv several gentlemen who were riding together in Wildmore F » n. A bay mare, the properly of Mr. William ' i'ayton, of Boston, but ridden al file time by Mr. W. Black- bourn, of Langlev Ferry, took a leap of eight yards and tiiree- quarters. A transaction of a very mysterious and horrid nature has come to light within the last few days. Some weeks ago, a box was left at the Blackmoor's Head coach office, in Nottingham, directed to a person in London, witii a request lhat it might be forwarded by one ofthe coaches. It was sent off accordingly, but on its arrival in London, no such person as the direction named could be found, and the box was. of course detained at the office there until it should be claimed. A foetid and umtstyi smell having been experienced for « • veral days in the office, it was at length traced to the box in question, which was found to contain the body of a male infant, apparently about two months old, in a putrid stale. It could not be as- certained whether the child had been murdered, or had died a natural death. On Tuesday last, several prosecutions werp tried in the Court of Exchequer, al Westminster- Hall, by informations filed by his Majesty's Attorney- General," at the instance of the Board of Stamps, to recover penalties for evading the duty on re- ceipts. One of them was against John Cheese, the collector at Whetstone toll bar, on the Barnet road, for giving a receipt upon a four- penny stamp, instead of an eight- penny one ; and there was another against, a tradesman, in Lancashire, for refusing to pay for the receipt stamp when re- quired. I he act of the 43d George I II. c. 126, not only charges the duty upon the person re- quired to givethe receipt, but imposes a penalty of ten pounds on every person who shall refuse tn give a receipt on a stamp, upon demand, or shall refuse to pay for ( lie stamp ; and the party paying the money is empowered to provide a proper re- ceipt stamp, and tj demand and require a receipt for fhe money paid', and also the amount of the duty. The counsel for the Crown staled to the Court, that the commissioners of the stamp du- ties, finding the duty for receipts greatly evaded, had determined to prosecute for the penalties, whenever they discovered any instance of fraud or evasion. Court of King's Bench, Feb. 25— The King v. Beaumont This was an information against the defendant, for publishing in a weekly newspaper, called the British Guardian, a libel upon his Vla- jesty's Government, contained in a leller to the King, which inferred that bis Majesty governed the country by unconstitutional means ; lhat he had a private" ca'binet, and that his councils were di- rected by a secret junto, no wav responsible for the advice they gave. Mr. Clifford contended, fur the defendant, that in other limes men of the first political character bad made similar charges, both in their speeches and writings; aud be instanced, in particular, the great Lord Chatham, Mr. Beck- ford, and others; and yet it vvas not then held con- stitutional to prosecute those persons for libels.— * l hojury found the defendant guilty. The King v. Ilorsman.— This was also an infor- mation against the Defendant, for a libel. Ihe libel consisted of a posting- bill, which the defen- dant bad caused to be pasted up throughout Lon- don, offering 20 gs. reward to any person who would prove that the Duke sf Sussex was not fhe author of a certain hand- bill, signed a Yorkshire- man, aspersing Mr. Hague. He also declared his intention of publishing the Letter of an English- man, in which the me.*. d character of the Royal Dukes would be discussed.— Mr, Adolphus for the defendant endeavoured to shew that it was not a libel, inasmuch as it did not charge the Duke with any criminal offence.— Lord Ellenborough told the Jury lo strike out the name of the Duke of' Sussex from the hand- bill and substitute their own, and then asked if they would not find themselves libel- led, to be advertised, with 20 guineas reward, in lite same way as if they had been suspected of breaking open a house?— The Jury found the de- fendant guilty. Destruction of Dury- Lane Theatre.— It is lilt lo more than five months since the calamitous con flagration in Covent- Garden, which consumed one of the two great national theatres of the metropolis. We have now to state, that the same sad destiny has befallen therival theatre; but, we have the con- solation to add, unaccompanied by those afflicting circumstances which so powerfully exejteel the public commiseration last September. On Friday night, a few minutes aficr eleven o'clock, a fire broke out at this superb edifice, which in ils promp- titude, furv, and destructive effect is unexampled. Fn less than an hour the whole of the inside was consumed, and of that part " not a wreck was left behind" to denote ils former splendor and magnifi- cence. The flames first brokeout in Brvdges- street, iu the work- rooms immediately over theiobtiy, where the audience resorted for refreshment. Every at- tempt to extinguish- tbem proved fruitless, and the scenery, wardrobe, furniture, and properties of every description, were all destroyed. The engines, although instantly sent for, could not reach the scene of destruction in time to give effectual as- sistance. It vvas nearly half past eleven before they could adniinster any aid, and at that period the flames were irresistible, The figure of Apollo, at the top ol'lhe theatre, fell down with a tremen- dous crash, in about hatf an hour after the discovery ofthe flames, and ihe most serious fears v ere enter- tained for all the houses situate in Vinegar- yard, Woburn- court, and the adjacent passages. The inhabitants began to remove tbeir most valuable ef- fects, but soon fonnd it impossible to carry their wishes into execution, in consequence of the mul- titudes of people which crowded from every quarter of the metropolis. The solidity and strength of the walls, however, confined the fire within their limits so effectually as to quiet all apprehension ( hat its ravages would extend to the buildings in the'm- niediate vicinity. VViien tint fire was first discovered in the interior of the theatre, several attempts were made to ex- tinguish it; but it had completely identified itself with the wood, and in less than five minutes after the entrance of Mr. Johnson, the machinist, ( who resided close to the house and was one of the first that witnessed the progresso-/ the fJames) the boxes, pit, and stage, were covered with fire and smoke. The only articles saved from ( he conflagration were a few papers and accounts, which were taken from the treasury with great difficulty and danger. It is due to the exertions of the firemen belong- ing to the different offices, ( o observe, that they worked the engines with incessant labour and great judgment. All their efforts, were, however, in vain, and it was found totally impossible to preserve a single vestige of the interior of the house. The multitude assembled on the occasion amounted to at least a hundred thousand souls. The flames must have been visible to a considerable extent, from I he commanding situation of the theatre, and of course aitwnd crowds in every direction. Rtts- sell- street, Drury- lane, Catherine- street, Brydges- street, Charles- street, Bow- street, Tavistock- street, Long- acre, anil Covent- garden, were absolutely filled wifli spectators. Such was the force ofthe conflagration, that it nasstougly felt at the church in Covent- garden. It is esteemed a fortunate cir- cumstance by several that ( here vvas no perform- ance al the theatre on Friday evening; whileolhers think that had there b « en an audience in the house, the alarm would have beensu very instantly given as to lead to the immediate extinction of the flames. The greatest possible order and regularity pre. vailed from a very early period. The police officers were unremitting in their vigilance and attention, and the avenues to the theatre were guarded by sfrong detachments from the horse and foot guards, and several of the volunteer corps. We regret to state, that the solidity of the wails, upon which thearchitect and the managers placed ihe most confident reliance, completely failed.— Shortly afler one o'clock the chief part of the front in Russell and Brydges street fell in with a hor- rible crash, and before two, the side in Vinegar- yard fell with a dreadful noise, in au outward di- rection. No fire has occurred for the last fifty years in the metropolis, that has been attended with such rapid ancl decisive destruction. Amid the ruin which we have been describing, we are peculiarly gratified in learning that very lit- tle damage has been done to ihe adjacent house*. About five o'clock the violence of the conflagration considerably abated, and the flames were spent, or confined within the boundaries of the site. Tbe walls in every quarter have been overwhelmed, with the exception of those constituting the east end, towards Drury- laae. They are, however, ex- pected to fail Very shortly, ft turns out that the edifice was vrected on timber piers, cased with stone. I'lie destruction ofthe whole buifding is of course easily accounted for. The spectacle of desolation which the structure afforded, when contemplated from Blackfriars- bridge at 12 o'clock, far surpassed in magnificence any of the minic representations which were ever viewed within ts walls. The shell of the building was then en I if;, and the upper range of windows and the balustrade over, forming the whole length of the edifice, being raised above all the adjoining buildings, and thrown into strong relief by the flame, resembled I lie ancient aqueducts which are still remaining iii the south of Europe. From the frame of the edifice, arose a broad sheet of flame : no wind stirred ; o break the symmetry ofitsasceut, so that it terminated in a " tiery pyramid." This vast splendid body threw an interesting light on the surrounding objects. The Thames a, id St. Paul's were rendered unusually beautiful. Thus the ef- fect was rather that of an elaborate work of art than of a fatal accident, to be lamented by all the arts. This severe casualty was owing to the negligence of the plumbers employed to repair some leaden pipes in the front next Brydges- streci, which had burst during the late severe host. Their tools, of which they are regardless when they have lost their red heat, occasioned a mouldering fire in the tim- bers in contact, which, w hen it reached to matter more combustible, burst into a flame. Other causes for the confligration have been assigned, but Ibis is the one bilieved by the parties most deeply in- terested. One man was killed by the falling of the wall in Russell- strert, and another dangerously hurt; but these were the only accidents of the kind which occurred. The ainjunt of the insurance is stated as fol- lows:— Tie British 5,000 Inpetial 13,000 Hop- 10 000 Et'gle 6,000 Total .£ 34,000 The loss lo the performers is mosr serious. Tiiey have been deprived'of every thing, and in one day seveial hundred persons are thrown out of bread. About twelve o'clock intelligence of the confla- gration reached the House of Commons. The fire was then raging with the greatest fury, and distinctly visible from the gallery w indows. Seve- ral of the Members quitted the House and. went upon Westminster Bridge to view the flames, which, from that point, presented a spectacle more sublimely terrific than any that has been witnessed in the capital since the fire of 1666. Those who recollect how beautiful and conspicuous an object the theatre appeared from the bridge, may form some conception of the awful sight it exhibited, glowing in every part with ignited matter. The horizon was so " illumined with the flames, that every steeple from White chapel to Westminster Abbey was as visible as at noon day; and the re- flection of so immense a body of liglit on the river, considerably added lo the afflicting grandeur < i' the scene.. It was in truth a compliment of the highest na- ture to Mr. Sheridan, who v. ns in the House, that the representatives of the British people should par- ticipate in his distress, and sympathise in his feel- ings. Mr. W. Elliot and Lord Jem pie suggested the propriety of an adjournment, in consideration of the great personal calamity which the House had been just informed had befallen a right lion, gen- tleman ( Mr. Sheridan ) for whom every one must feel. Mr. Sheridan, in a low tone of " voice, and evidently much affected, said be did not think the misfortune which had happened to himself was of a proper nature to interrupt the proceedings of tlia House. This sentiment was with difficulty acqui- esced in, and tiie debate proceeded. An extraordinary instance of the effects of the late flood appears in a wood adjoinirigthe turnpike- road leading from Welling to Crayford, Kent, where an oak tree of considerable size was remov- ed from the top of a high bank, to the distance of about ten feet, carrying with it several tons weight of earth. The tree remains perfectly upright, and in all probability will grow as vigorously as before I The proposed removal of Smithfield market is not yet decided upon. A Court of Common Council is summoned to meet on Thursday, when it is ex- pected some proceedings will take place, in order to enlarge the present market. The injury tlr. it would result to the city, by the removal, may be easily conceived, when it is allowed that 1500 per- sons are brought within its walls every week, whose annual expenditure amounts to five millions in ready money. Two maltsters, in the hundred of Kingsclere, Hants, have been fined in the full penalties, for having secret zvateringplaces, and thereby defraud- ing the revenue. The situation of a certain volunteer exculpatory evidence, is a little like that of Tilburina's con- fidante in I he Critic.

CORN- EXCHANCI, Lospo. v, MONDAY, Fits. 27. We had a large supply of wheat to- day, mostly frota Kent aud Suffolk, and which obtained buyers early in the day at an advance of about Is. per quarter. Rye is dearer, and fine samples of malting barley, ( hough a plentiful supply, fetched 49s. and 50s. pel quarter. Malt, on toe ot : er hand, has lather declined in price. Beans, of the tivo kinds, acquired better terms lhan last . week White and grey pease remain nearly as last quoted. Oats have arrived iu gteat abundance ; the prices nevertheless continue high, on accotwit of the calls for that article.
