Sias—At the moment when your faithful fubjeels the Mete • hers of the Tribunate learnt that their few:lions approached their termination, they interrogated themfelves with relped to the manner in which they had fulfilled them ; and in reeking what teftimony they could render to themfelves, they have found new reafons for bearing to the foot of the throne the homage of their admiration and gratitude. The Tribunate being placed in the constitutional fyftem as the organ of public opinion, if the duty thus impofed upon us has been eafily fulfilled, it is becaufe your Majeftybas united every fpecies of glory, and furpaffed every hope. Sire, your wifdorn having effaced the traces, and alma the recolleßion of the diforders anterior to your reign, your power. ful hand having given a new impulfe to all parts of the Admits!. ftration, your genius having conceived thole laws which place the learning of paR ages in harmony with the experience of modern times, it only remained for us to mingle our appLaufes with the general acclamations. Often has the imprudence of foreign Oates troubled us with the cries of war, but France remains inacceffible to every (peeks of alarm. In foretelling, therefore, fit many tri umphs, and fo many loon followed by the molt memorable tree ties, we have only expreffed that confidence with :Thieh the habit of witneQ►ng prodigies, had infpired year good and great people. " Sire, admitted for the loft time to offer thee:pro:Bon of thole fends/lents which have conftantly animated the Tribunate to wards your auguß perfon, we cannot reftrain our deep emotion; it does not, however, prevent us from thawing unto the end of our labours, that we are the !bid interpreters of public opinion. We honour thole exalted ideas which induced your Malay to fur; round the Legiftative Body with new diftindions, and tO render perfedt thole inftitutions which are fo dear to the national into retie. " Sire, we venture to look back with fatisfadlion at the fpaee which we have filled, well affured of having always trode in the paths of honour and of loyalty; and if ybur Majefty deigns to award to us the folemn teftimony of your approbation and laths fadlion, we dull think lefs of baying reached the termination of our political career, than of attaining dm objettt of all our efforts, and the molt precious recompeofc of our devotion.

There prifoners fet out this indriiiog for Harlingen. HAGUE, SEPT. so. We have juft received a copy of the capitulation which the Englifh were forced to fign at Buenos Ayres. The evacuation of that colony by their troops will excite the greateft joy in Prialia and Saxony.— The exportation of fine linens from Silefia and Lu fatia to Cadiz, from whence they are fent to America, is a branch of commerce uf great confequence to thole countries. If the Englifh were to remain long matters of Monte Video, they would inundate the Continent of Spanifh America with their Irifb clothe At prefent the 'Silefian and Saxon merchants, who are highly efteemecl by the commercial houfes at Cadiz, have the certainty that their bufinefs will not merely refume its former cuurfe, but be much bat , ter, as by the confeffion of till Englifh Officers themfelves, the hatred of the Spaniaros and Ame ricans againa the Englifli being extreme, the con flation between the two countries will • become lets than ever.

In each of thefe two tons will be eflablithed a Grand Tribunal, which will determine definitively upon all cedes brought before them by the fubjetts of the refpeEtive feitions.

Prince Alexander de Kourakja, the Ruffian Am baffador at Vienna, who ategociated and figned the Treaty of Tilfit, has received from his Sovereign a molt fplendid mark of his approbation and fatisfac tion. The Emperor Alexander has raifed him to the fira daft, that is to fay, to the rank of Field Madhal. There are few fimilar examples. - Prince Kourakin has been for feven years Vice Chanallor of the Em. pin!, and Knitter for Foreign Affairs in Ruffia.

The unexpeeled' attack of the Englik upon Copen• hagen has pruduced here an extraordinary fenfation. There is but one cry of indignation agdinft that via lence, worthy of the ferocity of the molt barbarous ages.. The caufe of the Danes is become that of all nations, which are equally interefted in puniliting an aggreffion made without motive, and without a pre• vious declaration.• The Government have given the molt aria (riders to accelerate the preparations of defence in our ports, and the equipment of our fleets. —A great number of troops are repairing by forced marches to Cronfladt, and to Riga.

Nothing new had occurred in that neighbourhood fence the battle between the Ruffian and Tuthill fleets, of which we have already had accounts,W e are forty to Rate that all hopes of the fafety of the Moue H semi are now given up. It is now many months face the was fent to the Mediterranean with difpatches, fine which no accounts of her have been received. Several private letters have been received from. Lilbon, brought by the Azarow cutter, the arrival of which at Falmouth we announced yefterday. They are of the 27th and 28th ult. and Rate, that on the nth, Mr. Gamma had privately intimated to the Bridal Faftory, and the intimation was com. municated with all convenient difpatch to all Englin t . men refident in Portugal, particularly thofe con. neded with trade, that it would be advifeable for them immediately to put themfelves in a Elate of readinefs to embark with their property; and thq were direded to condua the preparation without any Wile or public exhibition that (hould be likely to betray their purpofe : all fecrecy, however, was loon over, for it became known on the 28th that all hope of any amicable accommodation between Portugal and the enemy had 'completely vanifhed. The Prime having manfully refilled every means employed by the Agents of France to reconcile him to his own difgrace and the fubjugation of his country ; having totally rejeded the demands of the enemy, the French and Spanifh Ambaffaclors had, on the 27114 demanded their pafrports, which were granted to them on the morning of the 28th. Their departure was hourly expeded, and the utmoft poffible exer. tion was, of courfe, immediately fet on foot to sc. celerate the preparation of our countrymen to leave Portugal ; and alfo, as it is mentioned, of the Pot. tuguefe Government to proceed to the Brazils. confequence of an application from Lord STRANGFORD, the Perinea RSGIST had iffued an order to the feveral Officers of the Cullom' to allow the relhipment of Britifh property without payment of any duties ; and alio that fuch Officers mold, to gether with the military, if required, afford every alfiffance in their power to forward fnch refhipment. This order flgongly implies the amicable difpofition of , the Palace Itaces-r, who has been recently heard :to declare, that .‘ nothias could alienate him from the Englifh interest, but the conduct of England itfelf." Notwithrtanding all that has yet happened, it is the opinion of many, that the difficulties which pre- Ent themfelves to the emigration of the Portuguefe Court, are fo great as to render it next to impoffible to be executed ; and that therefore Come fort of arrangement may yet take place between France and Portugal. A Ihort time will remove all uncertainty. The French army was to enter Portugal on the tad hat. but even in that event it could not reach Lilbe from Bayonne in lefs than a month or five weeks:- , Long before that time fhall have elapfed, the final determination of the Portuguefe Cabinet may bt expated to be known. It appears by the accounts now received, that not more than five (hips of the line were fully equipped, and ftored for the reception of the Royal Family.— Four regiments, newly clothed and armed, were alto ready to accompany them. Whether the other 'hips, about t 6 or 18 in number, could be got ready in time, was a matter of uncertainty. We underftand that orders have been fcnt to Tor. bay, for fuch velrels as are ready for fea, immediately to proceed to Lifben. If the Portuguefe Government ferionfly refolve to go to the Braz;ls, the convoy of our fleet mutt be definable to them; at the fame tiro it is extremely advif4ble for us to take care thd she Portuguefe fleet thall not fall into the hands d the French. Several remittances have been receivea by differnt mercantile houfes from their connexions in Portupii and to filch an amount as naturally to induce tke expedation of their immediate departure from that country. We do not underhand that a tingle order for remittance to Portugal was received by the la(1 packet. ' The following is the fubftance of what private letters brought by this conveyance contain upon that topic. The lateft are of the 28th of September : " The demands of the French Government were U (abets r.• Four Millions of Crufades, to be immediately paid is fpecirla the ports of Portugal to he mat agalalt Britith Commeren—b.
