She left Gigon on the 29th ult. where fhe had landed the Spaniards, having been prevented from reaching Bilboa by bad weather. The liberation of the Palace of Ass traiss from his confinement is certain. He had, accordicg to the accounts by:this veffel, found means to open a communication with BEAUHARNOIN the French Ambaffador, which terminate) in his releafe, after ten days confinement. This may be partly corral, but it is hardly potEble that he can have been appointed Generalitlimo of the Spanith Army i for it appears by the FRENCH JOURNALS, Of which we received a regular feries yeflerday after noon, to the 25th ult. incluflve, that, contrary to the opinion generally entertained htre, the Prince had Ovally been engaged in a confpiracy againil his father, as our Readers will fee by the following letter and Decree : MADRID, NOVEMBER 5. The day the King addreffed the following Decree to the Governor, ad interim, of the Council of Cathie : The voice of nature unnerves the arm of ven geance ; and when the offendei's want of umfidera• tion pleads for pity, a father cannot refufe Wining to his voice. My fon has already declared the authors of that horrible plan which bad been fuggefied by the evil minded. He has laid open every thing in a legal form, and all is etaftly continent with thole proofs that are required by the law in fuch cafes. His con fafion and repentance hate diaated the rentonftrances which he has,stddveffed to me, and of which the fol lowing is the chief : • SUR ♦ND FATNIR, h St. Latireot, Nov. s.

" By the Royal Decree of the 3oth of Oilober, linCerted in the circular letter, which is addreffed to you the 3 ;ft of the fame month, his Majefly has deigned to make known to his Council, that his Au gull Perron, thanks to the affirlanee of Gun, has been deliverer from the catafirophe which threatened it.

" 4 Madrid, Nov. 3,1E07." Strange as it may appear, the French papers ap— pear, however, to confirm the report brought by the Cartel. , A Meirenger, which arrived at Bayonne , the 14th of November, brought the news of the PO= of Amnia. being fet at liberty, and made Genera liflimo of the Army deftined to Portugal ; that NA. roLaoN had fent him the Grand Cordon of the Legion of Honour, and that his liberation had pro duced great joy at Madrid, where his carriage had been drawn by the people in triumph, followed by acclamations. The whole affair appears flill to be very myfterious. The French papers contain a long article as a commentary on the KING'S Declaration, and which hems to be *German produaion—or rather, perhaps, to have been publilhed originaUy in that language. It was fiat noticed in the Publicille of Paris, on the rth and 12th November, and finally in the Monikur on the 23d. Thefe obfervations are fuch as might be expeaed from the enemies of England, but they lofe much of their inter& from the latenefs of their arrival. The Emprefs is returned to Paris. The Emperor is laid to be gone to Italy, and there is to be a grand meeting of his Kings and Princes at Milan. Pre parations are making for his reception at Venice, and every where. It is Paid that his Holinefs the Pope, the King and (teen of NAPLFS, the Queen of ETRURIA, the King of BAVARIA, and the PRINCE ROYAL, are all to meet the Emperor at Milan, but not a hint is given of the object of this Miraly of Sovereigns. A letter from Hamburgh, in the Afonikur, (late', that General PEYMAN has been arrefled, and that General WALLERSDORI, apprebentive of the fame fate, has fhot himfelf. The general Militat y Commit?loners, appointed for the trial of the above Generals for ligning the Capi tnlati•rn of Copenhagen, are Prince PREDERICK of HESSE, Major General Count BANDISSIN, and M. Vol; Btv z ER. The Auditor General, RuSENSTAND, is Aeillary. Yefterday a Cabinet Council affembled at the Foreign Office, at two o'clock, and continued fitting until half after five. The Members prefent were, the Earls of WES I'M .RELAND and CAMDEN, L ords: flawassaurtv, MULGRAVV and CASTLISP•GH, Mr. CANNING, and the CHANCELLOR of the Excrisqyta. At half after (even ye flerday morning, Mr. PaouD• MAN, one of his Majelly's Mcifengerb, arrved at the Foreign Office, with difpatches from Mr. BATHURST. A Mellinger alio arrived from Ruflia. The in telligence he brings is not yet known. The Cartel from Spain brings accounts that ark late Commandant of Buenos Ayres, whom fhe car. tied to' Spain, has been reinflated in his ArnerieNi command, for which he will Coon fet fail. - The Suffix American fhip arrived yeßerday in the Liver from Havre, after a very fhort pattage. Ac cording to the late Orders of Council, the is not per mitted to enter any of our ports, except under a li cence. Her arrival here, however, fufficiently proves the fallacy of the report frequently mentioned, and Cr late as yefterday reported, that an embargo had been placed on all American Teals in the French ports. Three Ruffian Gentlemen, who were in Chatham Dockyard, for the purpofe of acquiring knowledge in the art of fbipwrighting and rope-making, have been officially direeed to leave Chatham immediate. ly, and orders given that they fhould not again be admitted into the dock yard. The Channel Fleet, under the command of Lord GARDNER, has failed from Torbay to refume its nation off Brea. The Alban cotter, from off Lifbon, which is ar rived at Falmouth, fell in with, on the 25th intl. the outward.bound Well India fleet, which had been very much difperfed in fume heayy gales. Among the number of the unhappy fufferers in the Bjreas ftigate is the fon of S. HEMMANE, Efq. Metier Attendant at Chatham Dock Yard ; he was a young officer of very promifing abilitie , , and would moll probably have been an ornament to his pro fellion. Lord BOYLE, a rung man of great expeelati9n, fon of the Earl of GLASGOW, ferving on board the Gramma - Ai, was, about the month of July lafl, cap tured by the French. He bad taken charge of a chafe maree prize to Gibraltar, and was fleeting for po►t, when he fell in with a French flotilla, againft which he maintained a very gallant aSion before he was overpowered. Several of his men were killed, but we are happy to hear that he fuflain:d no injury. The asth ultimo, was the day of th. grand Fete at Paris, on the return of the Imperial Guard. A triumphal arch was ereeted at the Barres Vilette, under which they were to enter the city, de dicated to the grand army of the French Empire. They were to be met by the Municipality, who were to pr-tent to them crowns of gold, voted to them by the City of Paris, with the content of the Elusion. Thefe crowns of gold will be prefented to them, and to be placed on the Eagles of the different corps. After this they were to march in rand proceffion to the Champs Elyfees, where a magnificent banquet was to be given to the warriors. 'I ables were to be laid all along the principal avenue from the Place de Concorde to the Barrier de l'Etoile • the whole to be under an awning. Marquees for ;he Officers at the head of each Corps. The tent of the Etat Major to be laid at the round part of the fields. The Munici• pal Body to do the !Amours of the banquet. At the fame time as the banquet, there was to be given, in 12 of the pincipal Septa es of Pali; a gene ral difiribution ri Wine, gratis, and a drawing of Lot:cries of Eatables. The 12 Squares are fpecified and in the market des Innocent the wine is co be di fiributed from the public fountain itfelf—sbefouniairs u so rim with striae inflead of water. There are to be 12 Orchefiras in the 12 Squares, for Dancing ; and at eight o'clock in the evening there was to be a grand difplay of Fire-works at each place. This is the Programme. The account of the execution of this Fete would be given in the next paper, whith is dot come to hand. THE EXPEDITIONS. General M'Faacarta has arrived at Portfrnonth, where he is concluding and expediting the embarka tions. Yellerday the IA divifion of that very fine regiment the 29th, embarked ; the embarkation of this high ordered corps, we undertland, was really a• treat to military men, it was fo very well condbaed and to Much of a piece with the high charailer for difciplirie and conduit, which the zgth has long maintained. We believe that it is in agitation to give the breiet rank to the gallant Colonel DORIRN, vice HORTON, detained on account of bad health. The report is afloat in military circles, that Sir DAVID BAIRD is about to be again aaively employed. CHATHAM, DECEMBER 8.

The Countefs of WERTMORELANO, who went to Lifbon for her health, has quitted that place, in con fequence of the approaches of the French ; but, being hill under a neceffit y of rending in a warm climate, has failed for Sicily. This amiable Lady is peculiarly unfortunate On reaching Sicily, Ilse will probably find it abandoned by the Bt itifh. Her infant died on its paffage home from Lifboa. Tat THEATILIS.—The Operatic Drama of the Trove/its.: was performed lan night at Drury Lane Theatre, with much fuccefs. The powerful elo• quence of Mts. Pow sta. gave much interell to Ma dera, at the commencement of the piece. The beauti ful Lelinda met with a (unable reprefentative, as ufual. in Mrs. MOUNTAIII. The character of the Marchionef: ton, was well futtained by the airy gaiety and mufical powers of thocace : but the comical o , Gallagher, in the perfon of joHNSTOKR, was the great fource of merriment and laughter loving fun. Both BRAHMA and JONNSTONP, in their favourite Tongs, were loudly encored. Mifs Dancers's Maria, in the Citizen, dif• played an ample fund of difcriminating judgment, and much verfatility of powers. MATHEwS and BAN• uririta added much to the entertainment. Da CAMP'S Tows Wilding was natural and animated ; nor was SPARKS deficient in his delineation of the Old Baronet-Two Face, under a flood, and the Blind Boy, were again repeated. at Covent Garden, with their ufual fuccefs.
