The Anholt Mails follow each other in quick suc cession. la addition to that which arrived on Satur day, another reached town last night. The French cavalry are said to be rapidly spreadirg over the sea coast in, the North. They have already entered Memel and commenced the usual system of plunder, by demanding 100,000 riz-dollars (R 15,000). The miserable King of PRUSSIA, wishing to be at dis tance from ,the scene of warfare, recently asked the French Commandant of Berlin to grant him pass porti to enable to proceed to Sleswig, which were refused by the haughty ruffian to whom he addressed I himself ! The passage of French troops and warlike stores through Prussia still continues, and all is in a state of readiness for some great and decisive blow. M. ROMANZOW, the Russian Minister, whose predi. lection for French principles has been long notorious, js still, however, alive, and seems to possess the con fidence of ALEXANDER. It is not unlikely, therefore, that we shall hear of an interview and a reconcilia tion between the two Emperors, or, in other words, a complete acquiescence by the Russian Emperor in all the demands of BONAPARTE, whose address in di- 1 plomacy is equal to his military skill. The Swedish cruizers capture every French priva teer they can find at sea : five which were fitted out at Dantzic and Copenhagen, have been captured within these few days. This looks something like hostility to France. ••••11M.plilm. By the Lisbon Mail, which arrived on Saturday, Ministers received despatches from Lord WELLING TON, dated Fuente Guinaldo, on the 10th, but their contents are not important. The private letters, however, speak of a movement in advance to the South as being in contemplation. The British army was expected to cross the Guadiana on the 12► h, and SOULT was concentrating his forces at Seville, in ex pectation of an attack. Marshal BEHESFORD is to have an important command on the Douro. We have extracted from the Lisbon Papers some inter cepted letters frcim King JOSEPH to his wife at Paris, and to his brother NAPOLEON. They were seized by MINA, in his late dashing enterprize upon the con voy from Madrid, and bear evident marks of au thenticity.. The late Paris Papers state, that the Exiting of Spain, Charles IV. and his Consort, have removed from Marseilles to Rome, where they now reside in the Villa Borghese. By the Cuba, from New Orleans and New York, which has arrived at Greenock, ye have received American Papers to the 22d May, from which we have taken the following extracts ; they are of a pa cific tendency : " NEW-YORK, MAY sal. " It is said that a message of an important nature is to be communicated by the Preiident of the United States to Congress, to-morrow (Tuesday), or Wed nesday ; the subject is said to have reference to the posture of affairs with Great Britain ; and some arc so sanguine as to say --7 " That Mr. Foster has tendered a declaration in the name of his Government, openly abandoning all claims to the impressment of seamen on board ves• sels carrying the American flag. " That the proclamation of to concer• ning seamen, is to be recalled. , g That the American seamen. now on board Bri tish ships shall, upon their request, be liberated. I , That the principles of blockade by proclamation, will be declared null. 44 That a Commission of five persons shall be ap. pointed to decide upon the character of vessels cap tured under the Ogden in Council, and all property not contraband of war to be restored. 64 That the Orders of Council of November, 1807, and January and February, MS, and May and June of the same year, will be annulled." " NEW-YORK, MAY 21. 6 , Letters have been received in town from Phila delphia, which mention that Dr. Seybart, a Member of Congress from that city, had written to his friend there, informing him that the President had a com munication to make to the House of Representatives of a very favourable nature as respects our affairs with Britain ; and that he had this information from the President himself." FROM TILE PHILADELPHIA FREEMAN'S JOURNAL. " We understand a letter has been received in town from a Gentleman of high standing in Washington, stating that something very important would be made public on the 20th inst. (Wednesday). It was not known whether it would be favourable or unfa vourable, but from the source from which the letter produced, it was thought it would be the former." Yesterday the Palms REGENT gave a grand din ner. to the Royal Dukes, the Cabinet Ministers, and several Official Gentlemen. Saturday, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office. THE ku4d, * Veiterday being the last Sunday In the month, the following Bulletin was shewn at St. Jaynes's Palace : " WINDSOR CASTLE, JUNE 21. " Since the last Report, his MAJESTY has had an increase of his disorder, which has again subsided." (Signed by the five Physicians.) Cotton Wool is now allowed to be freely ex ported, in pursuance of a notice from the Board of Trade. It will be seen by our Parliamentary Report, that an important Message from the PRINCE REGENT, on the present disturbed state of some of the Northern and Midland Counties, was delivered to both Houses of Parliament on Saturday, and which will come under discussion this evening. It is high time that something were done for the protection of the com munity, against such daring and lawless acts as at present disgrace the country ; and which threaten the greatest possible calamity that can befall a nation. The Chester Chronicle of Friday last, after enume rating several acts of atrocity committed by the Lud dites, concludes as follows: sg We wish we could, with that degree of justice we owe to the public's information, here clos e this article ; but we are sorry to sa y, t h e lapseof each day discloses some new object of alarm—some new act, calculated to impress upon us the most alarming sen sations, and apprehensions for the general peace and safety of the country. It has been told us, that as semblies nightly take place in secluded places, to the number of some hundreds, that the oath continues to be administered, and that the names of those who are parties to the abominable and seditious compact, are called over at the several places of rendezvous, with all the regularity and appearance of system and discipline." Since the lne grant of Parliament; the Princesses have had their own private stables, horses, carriages, servants, kc. The livery is similar to the koy.il Dukes., Their principal amusement is riding on horseback, going to Frogmore, or the Princess ELI ZABETH'S Cottage, at Old Windsor.

This opportunity has nut offered since the year 1804. - The Gazette of Saturday contains an Order in Council, continuing the provisions rf a former Or der, permitting the importation into the Island of Newfoundland for the ensuing season, of bread, flour, pease, Indian corn, and live stock, as well as pitch, tar, and turpentine, from the United States, only in British vessels, and which must, within nine months, previous to such importation, have cleared out from some port of the United Kingdom, or of his Majesty's dominions in Europe, for which purpose a licence shell have been granted by the Co mm i ss i oners o f hi s Majesty's Customs in either England, Scotland, and Ireland. The licence to be in force nine months from its sate, and to be null and void, if granted, after the 1 30th Sept. newt. The Gazette also notifies the PRINCE REGENT'S per mission to Captain G. W.

Admiral MARTIN is hourly expected at Lisbon to hoist his Lag on board the hipyruEx, of 80 guns, in the stead of Admiral BERKLLEY, whose time is expired. The James, BRADLEY, from New Orleans and Ha vannah, arrived in the Clyde, sailed from Havannah on the 12th of May, and was boarded in the Gulph. by a French privateer, but was permitted to proceed atter putting a number of persons on board: A French privateer w a s yesterday (Sunday) off Brighton, among the fleet passing from the Downs— she was soon observed at the Signal Station, and chaced off by one of our sloops of war.

Sunday se'nnight a barn, containing between SO and 40 quarters of wheat, thrashed and unthrashed, belonging to Mr. COTTON, of Sheepshead, Leicester shire, farmer, was entirely consumed by fire, toge ther with a rick of beans and a rick of oats adjoining.

JUNE 15. g‘ To what an alarming extent does the system of assassination appear to be advancing among English men, to whose generous character it has happily till lately been unknown ! You will, no doubt, from other quarters have a fuller and much better account than I am able to give of another horrible instance of that crime, which fortunately has not succeeded to its full extent. Though I went to attend the Court-Martial on the criminal last Thursday, held on board his Majesty's ship BARFLEUR, in this harbour§ I only arrived in time to hear the sentence pro. notinced ; but the circumstances I learned are shortly these :—His Majesty's ship UNION, of 98 guns, Cap. tain LINDSAY, put in here last Wednesday, on her way to Gibraltar, in consequence of the Captain's having been stabbed the preceding day on his quar. ter-deck, by one of his crew. Admiral BERKELEY of course instantly ordered a Court-Martial, which, as I have already said, sat on Thursday, and con silted of Sir T. M. HARDY, of the Bartlenr, Presi dent ; Captains KENIT of the Bristol, MACKENZIE Of the Sabrina, THOMPSON of the Brune, and, I believe, , of the Nemesis. The First Lieutenant of the Union was Prosecutor (the Captain being confined (by his wound), and another Lieutenant and two sai. ' who saw the act, were examined for the prose cution, with the Assistant-Surgeon, who described the wound as under the second rib in the chest, and the nearest possible escape from being mortal. The Prisoner made no defence but that- he was drunk, l and brought tv:o of his messmates, who had known him ten years, who gave him a good character, find considered him an inoffensive man, but sometimes deranged when in bquor. He was unanimously found guilty, and sentenced to be hanged on board such ship, ac i d at such time as Admiral Bauman should direct ; which sentence was carried into exe cution on Friday morning, on board the limos, at the fort-yard arm—a boat's crew from each man of war in the Tagus attending. His name is ifitirre4—;- a native of Landon lam told. He was under the middle six.", with a pale thin complexion, and pro bably between 30 and 40. Though apparently sea. sible of his situation - , he betrayed little agitation, ex• cept when the sentence was read, but soon recoiered his firmness, and walked down from the quarter. deck (where the Court warheld under an awning) without assistance. During the whole time lie stood guarded by the Master.at-Arms and three marines. He wore a blue jacket, white waistcoat and trow. sers, and when out of Court, while they deliberated on the sentence, a glared hat with " flisiers” in front. During that time, which might be about hail an hour, he seemed to whisper a good deal to the Mas. ter-at-Arms, which List, after the sentence was Imo ! flounced, signified that the Ptiswer wislit d to address I the Court, but Sir Thomas HARDY desired him to be taken away. Captain LINDSAY is doing well, but the ship has not yet sailed ; nor can he be ex pected to be able to resume his command for some days, if they wait for that." FALMOUTH, JUNE 26.
