The English have re-embarked, having lost half of their troops, their horses, baggage, anununi•loa, and a part of their treasure. This success, and the movements of Austria, occasioned the return of his Imperial Mjesty to Paris. " The Confederation of the Rhine ought not to be under any uneasiness. Its powerful Protector will secure its frontiers from invasion. It is probable that the Court of Austria will return to a system compatible with the maintenance of general tranquillity. It is essential under the present circumstances, and it is the desire of his Majesty, that all the Princes of the Confederation should punctually furnish their contingents, and he ready to march at the first novice.

TRIEST, FEBRUARY 18. The Austrian troops received on the 15th of Fe bruary criers, which announce that they will be put upon the war establishment en the Ist of March, and that the militia Nvill enjoy the same advantage. The oific;2rs have instructions to purchase their horses and . field equipage. Throughout all Austria, are spread reports of waf with France. The Bank paper has fallen 8 per Cent. -Atl?in ten dny4.—Moniteur. VIENNA, FEB. 19. It has been announced for some days in the politi cal circles, that General Andreosli; the French Am bassador, has obtained leave of absence for six weeks, and that during that time he will make a journey to Paris. Last Sunday the Militia were exercised upon the ramparts ; nothing was so grotesque as their ap pearance : no one could help shrugging up his shoul ders at seeing the awkwardness of these shopkeepers' in their manoeuvres and manual exercise. These, however, are -the invincible legions, which it is pre tended to oppose to the conquerors of Ulm and Ma- rengo ! Several battalions of Croats have departed, in or der to repair to Buda, in Hungary, and to Petau, a town of Lower Styria. Some regiments have also been sent into • Moravia. The depression of the public funds has become alarming. Bank stock has fallen - from 80 to 70 ; other stocks sink in proportion.

By a decree of the IStli inst. a extraordinary Cri minal J:inta has been formed, composed of five Al caldes cf the Court, for the trial of assassins, robbery recruiters in favour of the insurgents, those who main t.tiu correspondence with them, and who spread false reports. Persons brought before the tribunal, for these crimes, shall be tried within 21. hours, and sen tenced to the gibbet . The sentence shall be executed without appeal. Those against whom there shall not be sufficient evidence, shall be placed at the disposition of the Minister of General Police, who shall send them to the ordinary tribulal. By recent Royal Decrees, all Officers in the army, and all the Magistrates and Public Functiouaries, are required to take the oaths of allegiance and obedience to the King and Cnnstituti9n, within three days after the publication of the decree to that effect, in the places where they' are. The property of all individuals who have executed an illegal authority, is answerable for the funds which may have been spent by virtue of orders issued by them. _ The impositions imposed on thp city of Madwid and the provinces, are tot* paid within six months, by three instalments. Three individuals of the Order of Franciscans, pr the town of Toro, who sought to raise disturbances,' have been shut up in their convent for six months, order of General Mazaredo.

The Excheqaer Bills Feuding BM was brought up from the Commons by Mr. Wharton and others, and read a first dine. The Fad. of LivitarooL, to oensequenoe of what passed be tween him and a _Noble Earl (Moira) on a former evetdng, pre sented a Copy of Extracts from the Dispatch referred to le the Letter to Sir Hew Dalrymple, of the 15th of July.

The Order for going into a Committee on this Bill befog read, The Duke of NORFOLK suggested, that the alterations made in the BM ought to be printed, in order that the (louse might be enabled to give them due consideration. The Earl of LIVERPOOL explained the nature of the altera• tions as relating to canteens, to officers, embezzling stores, and to other minor points of regulation; but observed that no now prin ciple was introduced into the Bill, and therefore suggested, that it was u ry to print the new clauses. The Duk nn of NORFOLK was satisfied with the explanation; and withdrew his*. motion. _ _ _ I,.cvd AUCKLAND observed, that as a generatrule, when new clauses, introduced into the annual bill, were printed in the ether House, as in this case, they ought to be also printed in that House. —The bill was ordered to be printed. SPANISH DOCUMENTS. Earl GREY adverted to the papers relatiie to tlie Campaign in Spain and Portugal. These were, ge nerally, of two descriptions, Ist, instructions sent out by his Majesty's Ministers to the Officers com manding in, these countries; 2dly, of the correspon dence which took place with these Officers. These he did not think sufficient for the necessary considera tion of the House, on an occasion of such great ma terial importance • they went but little to- illustrate the grounds of policy or expediency upon which his Majesty's Ministers acted. In this view one particular document struck him as essential, vii. the communi- cation made by Mr. Frere, his Majesty's accredited Minister at' Madrid, to Sir John Moore, and which led to such important results with respect to the Bri tish army. Communications also which passed be tween his Majesty's Government and that of Spain, should be laid before the House by Ministers who professed to give the fullest information pulite sub ker.. It would be also important to know, whether applications had not been made for the landing of a British force at other points besides Corunna ? The Noble Lord also referred to other points, on which he contended it was necessary their cases should be referred, .to enable them to form a correct idea of the subject they would have to discuss. From the na ture of the information laid by trmisters on the table, as well as with reference to what may yet be com municated upon those points, it was difficult to fix on any precise day for bringing forward the discus sion. But with reference to what may yet be commu nicated upon those points, it was difficult to Ex on an? precise day for bringing forward the discus sion. But with reference to such an intention on the part of Noble Lords with whom he had the ho nour to act, he would move, that the Lords be sum moned for to-morrow se'nnight. The Earl of LIVERPOOL, in answer to what had fallen from the Noble Earl, adverted to what he had more than once stated when that Noble Lord was not in his place ; first, with respect to the communi cation made by Mr. Frere to Sir John Moore, it was,', in fact, a private letter—it had never been trar.smit ted to his Majesty's Government—and in consequence of that communication, no important movement of the British army had taken place. He repeated his declaration, it was the defence of Ministers to give every possible information, which, consistent with their duty, they could publicly communicate; and he ex pressed his s....tisfaction, that the period was likely to be so confined on which Ministers could justify Their conduct on the subject in question, and the more that conduct was investigated, the more worthy, he trust ed, it would be found of the approbation of the House and of the Country. Much of the information allu ded to by the Noble Earl wodd be found in the do cuments upon the table ; and there was nothing with held; save what considerations of obvious duty dicta ted, should not be rendered puirlic. • Earl GREY spoke in explanation, and expressed his opinion that the letter of Mr. Frere, the accredited Minister at Madrid, to the Commander of the British Forces in Spain, could not be considered as a private letter. The Earl of DARNLF.Y said some words in sup. port of what had fallen from,j)is Noble Friend • and, after a short reply from the Noble Secret ar y of State, 'the question was put, and the Lords ordered to be summoned for to-morrow se'nnight. PORTUGUESE REGENCY. The Earl of BUCKINGHAMSHIRE adverted to what had been said on a former evening respecting the Regency in Portugal, and observed, that it ap peared by the narrative of Sir Hew Dalrymple that had received a dispatch on the '2d of September, dated the 19th of August, containing instructions for ,the formation of the Regency. He - thought it of con-' . siderable importance that this letter should be pro duced, in order 'that the House might be aware of the nature of those instructions, and of the mo tives which influenced therm It had been said .by the Noble Secretary of St-te on a former evening, that Portugal must follow the fate of the Peninsula, but surely much might have been done in Portugal to in fluence the fate of Spain, if measures had been adopted in that country satisfactory to the people, and calculated to rouse their patriotism and military ardour, in defence, of the common cause. He also wished to have produced the correspondence with the Portuguese Minister, and that it might be ascertained whether the measures adapted in Portugal were with his consent, or contrary to his wish ? His Lordship concluded by moving for the letter to Sir Hew Dal rymple, containing instructions for forming the Re gency. - 'The Earl of LIVERPOOL admitted that such in structions were sent to Sir H. Dalrymple 4 - there must of course, in the execution of such a measure, be something left to his discretion, but Ministers were responsible for the measure. He could not, however, consent to the•proclaction of the dispatch alluded to. There were.mcessatily it, allusions to the conduct Of individuals, and particular instructions founded upon those comments, whi'ch. it would be impropar to make public —upon another, ground also, be i • • . 'toed toit, r Havisteritonquered Portugal for ow ;clent ally, it was the object of his Maje ay's Go, ment to reestablish, as far as possible, the Go , meat which had been established there by the lc mate authority of the Sovereign. The Regent' therefore been formed, as a provisonal Govern. Until the decision of the Prince Regent of Pori should be known ution the subject, information of had been done having been sent to Rio Janeiro. determination respecting it had yet been received the Portuguese Government_at the Brazils ; ar therefore, upon this and the other ground wh had stated, objected to the production of the 1 which, at the same time, there was no - I f ICCCS! produce. The Earl of ROSSI,YN thought that Mii very ill supported the wish they had expressed, the information upon this subject should ' before the. House, when they refused the doci now moved for, and which it was of great impoi should be.in the possession of their Lordships. Lord Viscount SIDMOUTH protested agail principle. set up by the Noble- Secretary of Stan an admission of the fact stated, should serve of the document wished for, which contained ti • tives a nd circumstances of the transaction. If ti triotism and ardour of the Portuguese was le! played than it had been in an earlier period contest, was it not of importance the House have the means of ascertaining, if this was to tributed to any measure of our own Govern: which had been unsatisfactory to the people ? Lord HARROWBY contended, that no sui ground had been bid for the production paper, acrd that the admission of his Noble 1 . (the Earl of Liverpool), would answer every pi that could be answered by the pmduction of extract of the document, as it might be deem visable to produce, and which would probably VIII to nothing more than to what his Noble Vrier stated. Earl GREY .urgetl the necessity of havii paper before the House. It would indeed be • short work of their proceedings, if they. were to the admission of a Minister instead of the panel cidating the facts. They tiay we admit the ar that was not enough, we. must know the 7 that led to the act, and the grounds on which it and thus be enabled to jude of the proceeding, it was impossible they cou ld do from the mere sion of the Noble Secretary of State. Lord MULGRAVE opposed the productioi paper, observing, that it would be an extra°, proceeding to doubt the veracity of his Noble and that there might be considerable awkwari the House of L'ords should disapprove of the R which the Governrntot of Pvtagal should alt approve. • Lord ERSKINE denied that there was tempt to doubt the veracity of the Noble Seal State; the unfitness of the paper to be produc( its containing matter that ought not to b ma( lic, was a matter of opinion, and not a matter He was decidedly of opinion, that Ate paper 01 be produced for the information of the House. The Earl of BUCKINGHAMSHIRE wa; to admit the force of the objection, that thi contained matter that ought pot to be made but could not admit that which rested upon th. ciency of the admission of the fact by the Nobl The question was put and the motion negat • Adjourned till to-morrow (this day).

ROYAL MARINE MUTINY BILL. Mr. ROBERT WARD moved the order of the day for the committal of the Royal Marine Mutiny Bill. He requested permission to avail himself of that opportunity to afford an Honourable Baronet, (Sir C. Pole) some explanations, whi6 he presumed wauld - covrect some misconceptions contiected with this branch of service, under which that worthy Baro ! net laboured. His first observation was, that tat Board of Admiralty did not mean to increase the.ap pointments of thp pay Captains of ti. , e Marine Forces. And their determination 'proceeded upon the know ledge that the present was fully commensurate with the dmies cf Officers who never went afloat, ar.d whose onlyactive employment was upon Courts Mar tial, when there was a deficiency of Officers at head quarters. Another point in which the worthy.l3.iro. net was mistaken, arose from his construction of the Order in Council of 1755, in which it seemed to be inferred that the Marine • Service contributed a 5.- milarportioti of their pay, as the Land Forces, to the establishment of He had to inform him,th.l: no stoppages of the pay of the privates for that par.
