I RJM SATURDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE. ADMIRALTY OFFICE, AUGUST 10. Extract of a Letter from Captain Brisbane of hi M.ksty's Alp Belle Nide, addressed to Captain Rowley of tile Eagle, the Senior Officer in the Adriatic, and transmitted by Admiral Sir Charles Cotton to John Wilson Crolt,•r, EN. , Its Majesty'. ship Brae. Poule,at Sea, Adriatic, May 6. I have the honour to inform you, that on the 4th inst. being off the Coast of Istri t with his Majesty ship Alceste in company, at ten A.M. we discoveted and chaced a large French brig of eighteen guns, which sh-mtly afterek ards hauled into the small har bour of Parenza. Having received intelligence that such a vessel might be expected conveying supplies of all &scrip tions for the French fiigates at Ragels t, which had escoped front the recent gallent actitat off Lissa, I f..4t that no means should be kit untried to capture or destroy her. Atter reconnoitring her position, and consuleng the Pilots, and a most intelligent ()ni cer I had on board, Mr. Thomas Bsardman, acting Lieutenant of the Acorn, who, from his general local knowledge of the Adriatic, hAd handsomely volun . leered his services for the crniae, I found it was im practicable for the ft igates to enter the harbour, there being only fifteen feet water in it, but that the brig might nevertheless be cannonaded with effect where she was then lying ; accordingly at three p. m. both ships stood in, within a cable's length of the rocks, at' . the entrance of the harbour, and opened an animated fire cn her, and a battery under which site lay, and in an hour obliged her to haul ash , * under the town out of reach of our shot. The shits were frequently hulled by the battery, but sustained no other damage but what could be immediately repaired. All far ther efforts from the frigates being perfectly useless, I determined to take possession of an island in the mouth of the harbour, and within musket shot of the town. The ships were anchored, after the close of day, about four miles from the shore, and about eleven o'clock the same night two hmidred seamen, and all the marines, went under the orders of Lieu tenant deihts M'Curdy, senior Lieutenant of the Belle Pottle, accompanied by the Officers and Petty Officers named in the margin*, and took possession of the island without opposition. With incessant labour, arid themost extraordinary exertions, a defence was thrown up, and a battery of four guns (two howit zers and two nine.pounders,) mounted on a com manding position by five o'clock. A field piece was also placed at some distance to the left to divide the attention of the enemy, who, aware of our operations, had been busly employed during the night in plant ing guns in various parts of the harbour. Soon after five a.m. the French opened a cross fire from four different positions, which was immediately returned, and kept up on both sides with great vigour for five hours, when the brig'bcing cut to pieces and sunk, and of course the object of oar landing accomplished, the guns, trnmunitien, &c. were all re-embarked, Stith the most perfect order and regularity. I have only to lament that this service has not been performed without some loss, but considering the determined resistance that was made, and the pe culiar situation of the place, it is less than might have been expected. We have had four killed and as many wounded belonging to the two ships, a par ticular list of whom is herewith transmitted.

Admiral Lord GAMlSitiit has transmitted to John Wilson Croker, Esq. a letter from Captain Parker, of his Majesty's ship the Amaym, giving an account of a gallant and successful attack mule, on the 30th tilt. by the boats of that ship, under the directions of Lieutenant Wetaphall, on an enemy's convoy near the Peumai Ls. One of the enemy's vessels having been cut off by the Amazon, the remainder, eight in number, ran on shore, under the protection of a bat tery, and of a consi.krable number of troops ; a t withstanding the fire from which Lieutenant Vs est phall succeeded in bringing out three and destroying the other five, without any loss on our part. Vice Admiral D'AuvEnoxy has transmitted to . John Wilson Crolc.•r, Esq. a letter from Captain Sut ton, of his Majesty's sloop Derwent, giving an ac count of his having, on the 30th ult. captured le Ra flew French privateer, of Granville, manned with 20 men, with small arms.

Five of the vessels which were driven on shore here last month, have been got Off again.—Foreign vessels have arrived here very early this year. On the 15th, the first arrived, and since that time six more ; the first was a Russian.—Many barks laden with inland products, have come down the river. Those from Wologda are still wanting. BERLIN, JULY 4. M. D. Massow, Grand Marshal of the Court, has been dismissed. Two other persons of consideration have been sent to the fortresses of Spandau and Col berg. Two Counsellors of ti.e Provincial State have been dismissed. We are assured that these indivi duals had made an indiscreet protest against the mea sures of Government. VILFINA, JULY S. ' The intelligence lately received from Turkey is of ' a very pacific nature. The theatre for the negocia tions is to be established in the town of Rudschuck. .The three Russian Plenipotentiaries are, the General in Chief Count Kutosow, Chevalier Italinski, and M. Fontain. It is said that the Reis Effendi, who was at the Ottoman headquarters at Schumla, will go to Rudschuck, to settle all the affairs they have j not hitherto been able to arrange. Gemid Effendi, who has hitherto conducted the negociations at Bu charest, was also on the point of departing for Rnds- I chuck, where the chief of the department,of the Reis Effendi had already arrived. Divers reports are in circulation respecting the conditions of the future peace. It is stated, that Servia will be detached from ITurkey, and form an independent st a t e ; that Mol davia will be given up to Russia , and Wallachia re ' stored to the Porte. LEIPSIC, JULY 8. On the lith, a notification was sent to the mer chants, that they must pay 40 per cent. upon the va lue of the merchandize imported here under Prussian certificates. The gross amount of this impost is stated at 180,000 rix-dollars. SOLEURE, JULY 9. Messrs. Von Flere and Malder Friedberg are re turned from their mission to Paris. Yesterday it was unanimously resolved by the Diet, that all Swiss in the English service should immediately quit it, on pain of forfeiting the right of citizenship and confis cation of their property. His Majesty the Emperor and King, has trans mitted to the Landamman of Switzerland, the fol-1 lowing : " Mozs. LANDANINIAN,—Your congratulations on the birth of the King of Rome have been very agree able to me, rendered personally happy by an event which promises a long futurity of happiness to my subjects.—l consider it as a guarantee of a long and durable union between France and Switzerland, and I trust that the Swiss will never forget the interests which bind them to France, or the good will I have ever testified toward them.—l pray God, M. Lan damman, to have you in his holy keeping. " st. Cloud, June 29. " NA MIXON." ANTWERP, JULY 13. There will successively arrive in this town, at least 200 vessels laden with merchandise, which have been confiscated in the North. A great quantity of these goods have already arrived in our port; our ware houses are filled with them. MARIBO, JULY LI. On the evening of the Ilth, three sloops were car- I cured by a row-boat, which was formerly Danish, off Nyord; even the pilots barraging to Nyord consider• ed her as such, and in the afternsion rowed along-side her, to enquire if she wanted a pilot. How dange rous will it not be hereafter for our Danish vessels which trade between Copenhagen and the islands; it being difficult to discover any difference between the enemy's vessels and our own. KONIGSBERG, JULY IS. Last night another fire broke out here, in the Schul gassc, in the old town; from the confined situation in which it made its appearance, we were at first much alarmed, hut timely and active assistance be ing given, it only destroyed three battles. THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. MONDAY, AUGUST 12. PIING! RtGINTI BIRTM-DAT.—Holiday at the Public Oiltese. A Heligoland Mail arrived this morning. The letters by this conveyance record a most gallant achievement on the part of a small boat expedition sent up by the river Y.thde, under the command of Lieutenant &Tilt, of the QUEBEC frigate. They suc ceeded in capturing several French gun-boats, bu t suffered a severe loss in killed and wounded, in consequence of the blowing up of some gun-Powder on board one of the prizes. Government have not as yet received any confir mation of the account received by the way of Bristol• of peace having been concluded between Russia and Turkey. The intelligence by the late Anholt Mails does not add much to the probability of the report, although it does not seem to be of such a recent date as that brought by the Nimrod to Bristol. A merchant-♦essel (the Malvina) laden with hides, tallow, and bark, from South America, was boarded by a pilot-boat, off Plymouth, on Friday afternoon. She had been only 48 days from Buenos Ayres ; and, if the intellig-nce she brings be correct, it may by considered of some importance. The Master of this vessel stated, that great rejoicings had taken place at Buenos Ayres, in consequence of a victory obtained by the troops of that Government over those of the Vice-Roll of Monte Video. Etto, himself, is re- ported to have fled, with a few followers.—Another account states him to have been assassinated by his own troops—nearly two-thirds of whom are said t• have deserted his cause, and joined the popular party. who are represented as rapidly acquiring strength in every direction. In confirmation of the above, we have to notice the arrival of letters and papers from the River Plate, to the date of the 2d May. At that time it was known that General BELORANO, who commands the troops of Buenas Ayres, had blockaded Monte Video on the land side with a force of between 6 and 7000 men, and had the good fortune to fall in with a drove of 6,000 bullocks, intended for the supply of the place. Provisions at Monte Video are sold as in all Spanish towns, at a price fixed by the municipality. Mesh was so scarce within the fortress that no inhabitant was allowed to expend above a rial a-day in meat for his own individual subsistence. ato had not more I, than 800 troops under his orders, and the whole po pulation of the place, the troops not excepted, were much discontented with his Government, so that it was expected this only remaining possession of Old Spain on the Eastern side of the Southern Continent would soon fall under the power of the revolutionary party. The Junta of Buenos Ayres had published a notice, that all persons having vessels which they are disposed to arm, to act against the squadron of Mr'nto Video, shall be provided with cannon and amunitioat at the expence of the Government. From among the violent Proclamations of Eris, we have selected the following : " By virtue of the powers vested in me, and by my authority as Viceroy and Captain-General of these colonies, I declare in the name of our august Sove reign,, Ferdinand VII. and of the Nation, that the revolutionary and tyrannical Government of Buenas Ayres is in a state of rebellion against our lawful Prince. That all who compose such Governmenr. and that all who carry arms or transmit supplies for its assistance, to enable it to attack the sacred stan. dard of the King of Spain, shall be deemed traitors to their Monarch and to the State, and as such shall be tried, sentenced and punished. And in order that this our determination in the name of his Majesty and of his kingdom may be made known to all, it shall be published in General Orders, and shalt be placarded in all public places, that none may i plead ignorance of the same. (Signed) " XAVIER ELIOp " JUAN RAUTISTER ESTELLFS, SEC.' It has been announced by Viceroy Eta° in a Pro clamation he issued, and which we have before insert. ed, that several thousands of the troops of Brazil were in readiness to co-operate with him for the re duction of the malcontents of Buenos Ayres. In an swer to this declaration, the Junta of that city I.ave published the following official letter, refeived from the Conde de LINARES, Minister for Foreign Affairs to the Prince Regent of Portugal :- 4 , Most Excellent Signors—The letter that by or der of your Excellencies was written to me by your Secretary, D. Mariano Moreno, having been intro duced into the august presence of his Royal I ligh ness the Prince Regent of Portugal, I am comet aid. ed to inform you that the profession the Junta has made of its sentiments of respectful fidelity towards his Catholic Majesty, Ferdinand VII. and his legiti mate successors, are highly pleasing to his R 3yal, Highness. He is also happy to find that the Juil:a is desirous of preserving towards his Royal Highness that disposition of friendship and good harmony which the connection of their respective territories require, the inhabitants of which are united by nature, by re ligion, and almost by identity of language. 41 Under these circumstances, his Royal Highness authorizes me to inform you of his tender q.nsdelity towards you, for the attachment you have expressed, and to declare to you that he will take no part what. ever in the internal dissensions of the vassals of a Prince allied to him by blood, and by every ether re lation ; and he will only offer up his prayers that these dissensions may have a speedy and beneficial termi nation ; and adopt those means that he shall deem necessary to prevent the flame of civil war f r om ex tending to his own possessions, in consistency with his anxiety to preserve the welfare and tranquillity of his subjects, to which they sire so justly entitled.
