FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. MAbR ID, NOVE MBER V. 4. Nov. 24.—The King, who set out for the army on the Itirh ins:. with the Duke of Dalmatia, returned this day to his capital. He brought with him in his cicriage part of the stand of colours which were taken from the enemy. The Gazette of this day contains the following passage : " It appears that the Fnglish, according to their custom, have abandoned their pretended allies, as was already proved, by the journey of Lord Welles ley to Cadiz, while the Spanish, army was destroy ed at °calla. It was added, that the English are drawing near the sea, in order that they might regain their ships, the sole refuge which is left them for the present, until Sp:tin and Portugal, joining their efforts to those of the rest of the maritime Powers, shall call their real enemy to account for so many sacrifices they have made, and reconquer the independence of the sea, that high road which the inhabitants of the Peninsula must frequent unmolested, in order to re pair to their rich and numerous settlements in the New World." Nov. 26. —The number of prisoners taken from the insurgents is more considerable than it was at first thought ; tlley are bringing in by whole columns. I: will be dinicult to imagine where General Welles ley was while these men were fighting on the account of King Ger,rgc. Tne Noble Lord pretended to ac company to Cad:7. the M^Aquis Wellesley, his, bro ther, who was returning; to England ; but, this it is too evident, was only a pretext, and that the journey was in reality only intended fbr reconnoitring the City, and consideving the means of surprising it, in case certain mem!icrs of the Junta should not find time to conclude the bargain they had begun to ne gotiate on that subject. Nov. 27.—1 t was one named Areisaga, formerly a Spanish Colonel, who commanded in chief the army of the rebels at the battle of Ocana. It ap pears that he had no desire to expose himself, though before he left Seville he took an oath to the Junta to lead his army directly to Madrid. Instead of being on the field of battle, he had taken his station, from the beginning of the action, on the top of the steeple of Ocana, to observe every thing without risk. As soon as he saw his troops routed, he descended pre cipitately, leaped on a horse, which waited for him at the gaze of the church, and never stopped till he came to Trembleque, where he arrived by three in the afternoon. As be passed through his disbanded troops in full gallop, he only cried out, , 4 We are lost." If deficient M ability and bravery, he sheaved great prudence. Had he been some moments later, lie would have been taken by General Dessolles, who Carried the village of °calla by assault. The Corregidor of Madrid has published an invi tation to the inhabitants, to furnish the prisoners with clothes and shoes, of which some of them have need, for their journey to Fiance. Dec. 2.—Don Joseph Massaredo,Ministerof Marine, has addressed to his counts ymen . a long letter, in which he invites them, in the most pressing manner, to ward off, by a prompt submission, the calamities which are ready to pour upon Spain. This letter thus - - concludes : 1 !t was on the 14th of October that the Emperor dictated peace to Austria—vet your fate ordains that your blindness shall still continue, and does not even permit that the mad enterprises of the Junta of Seville shall be discontinued. At its command vcw march to seek the French, believing that you could drive them from the C.ipi•al, and from Castile, On the 19th of No %c.:nben• let, OG:11:1 witnessed, in a frw hours, the destruction of 4.5.010 men, se , .f by the miserable Members of the Junta to be sacrificed. Spaniards, my dear brethren, what wo•ld you do ? 1. end your ears to the words of a patriot who never has deceived you, who never has ceased to dedicate his existence to the public gnoci. Wherever may be the enterprises of the French troops, they are more than sufficient to accomplish them; they have as suredly been very sufficient in all the actions in which they have been engaged to the present day. 1 repeat, Spaniards, the French troops are more than sufficient—but humanity itself will direct the Emperor to display before your eyes a still more formidable force, in order to deprive you of all temptation to a resistance, which most cause your total ruin." I)tr. 5 —The Proclamation of General Solignac, Governor of Burgos, has had the best effect, and all good Spaniards are highly satisfied with it. A few individuals only continue to be deaf to the voice of reason. The Duke del Parque flies with the greatest rapidity, and General Kellerman follows up his suc cesses. It is impossible to fi,rni an idea of the alarm and confusion which prevail in this army of thefinsur gents. All the Gallicians and Asturians endeavour to desert, and return home. - - - - In the battle of Alba dcl Tormes, the Spaniards bad 30,000 men; whereas General Kellerman had at most only 12,000. Tne General is at this moment occupied in taking measures for completely annihi lating the enemy's army, which was a short time since formidable • and an expected reinforcement of 10,000 men from Madrid will greatly assist him in his ope t ations. VALLADOLID, NOV. 30. Gcueral Kellerman, who commands the reserve of the army of Spain, attacked the enemy, who endea voured v penetrate through the provinces of Leon and Madrid, in his position of Alva de Tormes.— Although the said General had no other cavalry than that of his own corps and of the 6th division, he charged the Spanish with uncommon gallantry, killed 3000 men, took twelve pieces of ordnance, six stands of colours, and made a great number of prisoners. General Kellerman is still pursuing the enemy, and we trust that but few of the Spanish will escape This intelligence has reached us in an official shape. Dec. 3.—The Duke del Famine continues his flight with the utmost precipitation, and General Kellerman is following up his advantages. It is - impossible to form an idea of the consternation which prevails in the army of the insurgents. All the Gallicians and Asturians arc anxious to desert, in order to rejoin their homes. In the action near Alba de Tormes' the Spaniards wcre 30,000 strong, and General Kel lerman had hardly 12,000. He is now making the necessary dispositions totally to annihilate that once so powerful army-10,0(X) men, whom he expects from Madrid, will enable him to attain that purpose. BAYONNE, NOVEMBER 9.5. The battle of Ocana has spread the utmost conster nation among the insurgents, and enraged then, very much against the English, because they did not make any diversion in their favour. The Junta of Seville has declared to Lord Wellington, that it is impossible further to subsist the English amity, which, without beTrig of the least use to the domihon came, consumes three times the provisions required for all the Spanish armies. Lord Wellington has, in consequence of this declaration, altered his movements, and is now march ing to Portugal, instead of Alcantara. It is supposed that his army will never more recross the frontiers of that country.—the road of Madrid has been cleared of the robbers by whom it was infested, and the mails now arrive without the least obstruction. General Loison's division has arrived in Vittoria; a chain of other corps stretches as far as Salamanca. The army of La Mancha, the last hope of the Junta of Seville, has been dispersed ; and some small corps, which have not even the appearance of battalions, will hardly be able to penetrate into Portugal. The miseries to which Gerona is reduced baffles all description ; and several insurrections against the Go vernor have already taken place in that town. He is, however, supported by the Monks, and even by the women, farmed in regiments. Several officers of the garrison have tome over to us, and the surrender of the place is speedily expected. NAPLES, NOV. 25. Intelligence has been received here, that after the English had occupied the islands of Cephalonia and Ithaca, they attempted the conquest of Corfu ;--but the enterprize failed of success. TRIESTE, NOVEMBtIt es. Last night we were thrown into the utmost con sternation by some English vessels, which were seen in the afternoon, standing in for this port. At eight o'clock, they began to - let off a great number of rockets, which gave the atmosphere the appearance of a continued blaze of fire. The rockets, hoviever, for the most part fell into the water; but three reached the town, and the consequence was, that one house was set on fire, though the flames were speedily extinguished, This city having suffered so much already during the present war, it would be truly hard, should it be burnt by the English fire-rockets. Fire-wood has be come excessively dear, owing to the severity of the weather preventing its conveyance by sea. CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 25. A report has for some days been current that the Russians have concluded an armistice with the Turks for three months ; but this intelligence requires con firmation. A change took place in the Ministry at the commencement of the Ramadan : the Lieutenant of the Grand Vizier was deposed, and replaced by a Pacha from Asia. We have received no news from the Grand Vizier for some time ; it is only known, that his head-quarters are at Rudtzuck. BUCHAREST, NOV. ?6. According to intelligence from St. Petersburgh, a battle has been fought on the Danube between the Russians and Turks, which terminated in favour of the famer. BASLE, NOV. so. The report that Gustains Adolphus, the late king - of Sweden, whose allowance has been fixed at 500,000 franks, is to take up his residence in Switzerland, seems to be confirmed. Fie-is shortly expected at the fine country seat of Green, on the !dunes Lake, which has been purchased for him. A.UGSLURG, DEC. 8. , The report of the death of the celebrated Andrew Hoffer if still afloat ; all the public papers repeat 'it, and agree in stating, that it was at Passeyer, in his own house, he perished with arms in his hands. The Bavarian and French troops have razed his house.— Nothing, however, is yet officially known on this subject. XEMOTEN, DIC. a. , Detachments of subalterns and soldiers which were made prisoners in the Tyrol, arrive here almost daily : they say nothing particular relative to the treatment they received from the Tyrolese. Respec ting the late • events in the Tyrol, they state that Hofer, in violating his word, and - exciting a new in. surrection in the country, had drawn down .a terrible vengeance from the trench, who attacked the bands recently collected, and killed several hundred men, took their chief himself, with his brother in law, and burnt his house at Passeyer ; they add, that the re mainder of the insurgents, terrified by this example i d' a just vengeance, have surrendered their arms, and retired peaceably to their homes. DORDRECHT, DEC. 12. Letters from Copenhagen, of the 3d, mention, that three English ships of the line, two frigates, and a brig, still remain at anchor in the Great Belt, and that the vessels which lie off Kiell also kept their sta tion. Letters from the same place, of the sth; , men tion the total loss of a Swedish vessel off Kullan, laden with 180 hogsheads of sugar and 130,00D1b. weight of coffee. By a letter from Riga of the 29th ult. it appears that the frost continued with great severity. The river was completely blocked up with ice. The ex trication of the vessels was accompanied with much difficulty, so that it was thought eight or ten days more would elapse before they could reach the mouth of the river. A letter from St. Petersburgh, of the 22d ult. says —"" On the 19th the ice in the Neva became suffici ently firm to admit of persons walking on it in safety. There were 73 vessels locked in the ice at Cronstadt; sixteen of them were Americans." MUNICH, DEC. 4. By the last official reports from Inspruck, a batta lion of French infantry, which removed on the 29th from Brazen to Brien, has established between these two places the communication which had been interrupted for some days by the insurgents. Gene ral tlaraguay de Hilliers has occupied Menan, with two divisions. The insurgents of the vallks of Patsrne ger, Alten, and Wintscligau have been dispersed. —The inhabitants have promised to submit, and are disarming. From 700 to 800 prisoners have been set at liberty on this occasion : 300 besides had been liberated at the time of the occupation of the defile of Fimter munz, by Major General Ragiovich. The French troops are at Glunus. The advanced posts of the first Bavarian division are at Nauders. The inhabi tants of this last place had sent deputies to Major- General Ragiovich, offering to deliver up their arms. In all the environs the inhabitants have returned to their habitations, and there is nu reason to apprehend a fresh distu►bance. The chief of the irmirgents, Fiente, who endea voured to perpetuate the rebellion, was, with his Aid-de-Camp, the famous Joseph Bachman, of Hall, desirous of saving himself, by traversing the lines of the Bavarian troops, with the renowned Menetus, who has equally distinguished himself by his exploits during the insurrection. They were already more than two leagues and a half beyond the line, when Captain Regnier stopped them ; they were conducted chained to Landech, and froth thence to Inspsuck. The French troops evacuated Noulberg on the 19th of November. A Bavarian garrison remains, how ever, at Bregenz, Feldkirch, and Plude.nz, as well as at Grannz and Nauders. IN3PRUCK, DEC. 1. Tranquillity is at present re-established in the two vallies'of the Inn, as well as in Wingschgan. The French and Italian troops have removed to Nauders, and hold at present a communication with the Biwa rian troops. There have been several serious engagements be tween the French troops and the insurgents, in the vallies of Pasfegen and Paznaun, as well as at Me nan. Nobody knows what has become of Andrew Hofer. With the exception of bread, all kinds of provisions are here at a moderate price. BAVARIAN ARMY. ORDER OF TIM DAY, DF.CEMDER 1. The day before yesterday, the troops of the first divition took possession of the Pass of linstermuus ; the insurgents left one piece of ordnance behind; one colunui is %arching against ISlaudars. " The French troops who entered Vincbgau, by Meran, have arrived at SchLtnders. The keep up at present the communica tion with the other troops. " The Tyroltans who suffered themselves to be mislei by fo reign intimations, are separating in all quarters, and return to their duty. Tranquillity has been restored in all the bailiwicks, awl the inhabitants readily surrender their arms. EIKON DROVILT, COUnt Of die lapin. Heatizarters, Wreck s Nev. 28." MARRIED.

Snrgeons, late Majesty's Service, challenge the whole world to prove single instance where their Medicine and method of um: hay failed of the desired effect. The practice of many years in tl.: particular branch of their profession lots not given rise to on - unsuccessful case. They continue to direct their studies to the treatment and care of Venereal Complaints, and that derangeinent of the sptcm, which is the consequence of the pernicious and wasteful effects et habit long and men unhappily pursued by the youths of both Qext.s• in the one it will be found to be the unfailing source of barrcr.- ness ; the other have hs ravages fatally developed to them by A dis greasing state of debility, which, if not timely rennedinel, 'emirate in impotence. These are its remote and ultimate effeCts;tviiilt- - con sumptions,loss of muscular power, and various neiTbus cipvtgeint usually charaiterise the earlier stages of this solitary vice. Of per sons languishing under the disorders incident to such a habit, thci treatment is simple and has never proved unsuccessful, in th course of a long, laborious and much extended practice. In ti: most obstinate and complicated cases of venereal infection, .60. u obstructions in the urethra, spongy excrelcences, hard to moan, callous ulcers, eruptions, seminal weakness, : gleets, as STRICTURES, Whether recent or of long duration, and which have baillcd the skill of other Practitioners ; are by their present improved Oar of treatment, effectually and permanently cured, without the pandit suffering the excruciating pain and alarming hemorrhage which often follows the application of the lunar caustic. In the course of 20 years extensive practice in this metropolis, numerous cases ol Strictures have been and are daily-under their are, the torsi eradication of which are effected by a safe, certain, and expedi. tious mode of practice, superior to any other yet' adopted. The weakness, relaxation, and debility proceeding from this complaint, is speedily removed, and the patient re.tured to sound athl vi. gorous health. But where the debility has for years existed, a proper perseverance in their restorative remedies, after the .0 iu ture has been destroyed, is indispensably requisite to revive the slumbering• sparks of life, and to reanimate the Constitution.

TDE EiNG AND THE LORD OF THE MANOR OF HOL DERNF.SSL, The curious suit between the Crown and MAXWELL CONSTABLE, EA. Lord of the Manor of Holdernesse, in . Yorkshire, is at length determined : it is of much importance to LcrJs oF Manors on the sea coast. A cask of wine was floated on shore on the coast of the Manor of Holdernesse. The Coast Bailiff, and som Custom-House Officers, on hearing of the stranger's arrival, went immediately to pay a complimentary vist : The Officers laid hold of one end of the cask, and said; " This belongs to the King ;" the Bailiff laid hold of the other end, and said it belonged to the Lord of the Manor. Say the Officers, "it is smuggled, it has not paid-„the Port duty ; said the Batli " I think it is Madeira." - The Officers smiled at the honest man's blunder, and,:-explained they meant the Duty on Wineimported. Says the Bailiff, 46 It has been in nu port, it has come by itself on the beach." Poth parties remained inflexible ; and the Officers having, after grave consultation, determined, that the Bailiff could not drink the c a sk of wine while they went to,their Custom-house, at a short distance, for advice, proposed that the wine should be put into a small but ; but •the Bair thinking it safer within the Lord's immediate jurisdiction, in the mean time remoVed it to the cellar of the baronial chateau. The Officers returned._ on this : " Oh, ho !" said they, " now we have you ; the • wine is our's to all intents and purposes, as it ha: been renamed without a fiernrit." Says the Bailiff, " if- I had. not removed the wine without a permit, the sea would the next tide."--- " Then," quoth the officers, " the sea would have been put into the Court of Exchequer." The Bailiff shut the great hall door in their faces. The Lord was exchequered ; that is, the Attorney- General filed his information •against him ; learned lawyers were engaged on both sides ; the Crown law yers said the officers'were certainly right ; the Lord's lawyers said he certainly was. The cause came on at York Assizes, and the noise it made was as great as the contested election there. All the winebibbing Lords of Manors in that and the adjoining counties were present, and the Court was consequently very much crowded. A special verdict ;vas found, which left the question for the determina tion of the Court of Exchequer. It came on to be argued, Sir Roger de Coverley's dictum, that " a great deal may be said on both sides," was demonstrated to the fullest extent, by the long robed hand of wordy combatants- engaged by the Crown and the Lord of the Manor. The Court took time to deliberate and on the last day of last Term, pronounced judgment that it was a case which the Actrequiring permits for the removal of wine did not embrace, the Act only alluding to wine which had paid duty; that from the• case in Vaughan, it was clear, that wine to be liable to duty must be imported ; that wine, as Vaughan said, could not be imported by itself, but must be by tht. agency of some one else ; and that it was in that case deter-1 mined, that wine wrecked could not be subject to duty. The Lord keeps the- wine, and will have to' pay an enormous bill of costs for the defence of his rights, as in informations by the Attorney-General, though the verdict is with the Defendant, he does not get his costs. John Bull will—(but hold, we have just mentioned the name of Mr. Attorney)—and the Counsel who were in the cause say, in their opinion, it was_ one of the best casks of wine which ever reached the English coast.
