The Emperor of RUSsIA and his Ministers, acting upon the dictates of the wisest and most reagnani iawns policy, HAVE RESOLVED TO REGENERATE PO- I l e ap, DECLARING it to be an independent nation ! *re, then, in addition to the conflagration of Mit ten, we have another evidence that Russia has at length determined to come into the field against Bo ttoms. armed with the best of his own weapons, but With this glorioee distinction in her favour. that the independence of nations, and the consequent in. , ugrity of the rights of mankind in a state of civil society, are her motives ; whereas those of the foul destroyer, to whom she is opposed, are the most fero cious and sanguinary which ever deformed the hu man mind. Th. Prince of OLDISIDUSGII is mentioned as likely' to be proposed to the Polish Nation for a Sovereign. flu intimate connection with the Russian Imperial Family gives him strong claims to the attachment of all those Poles, who prefer an honourable association with ALEXANDER, to being the abject vassals of Bo innate ; whilst, on the other hand, • his personal renders it probabha that many Germans, now' tilletantly serving in the french armies, would Bock , 'delft standards and, in fact, we understand that he • 'lt lesily employed in forming , a German Legion, pincipally front the numerous deserters from the yreach army. Whether this Prince, or any other Bovereign, shall ultimately prove most acceptable to the Poles, we earnestly hope and trust, that the Bri tish Government will omit no just means of securing to itself that influence in the qew order of things, which the rank of Britain, in the • Kale of nations, .011ilitds, and which never can or will be used, but to , 'Maintain the Menu; independence, and prosperity • 'Feber Allies• Other great diplomatic arrangements are mentioned, as likely to take place ; amongst the test, a Commercial Treaty with England, on the basis of that negotiated in 1807.

The number who voted fur the Pe T tition to the Lords in the Senate House was 63, against it 42 ; for tht Petition to the House of Com mons 61, against it 36 ; in the Regent, or Junior House, the number for petitioning the Lords was 52, against it 34. ; and the question for petitioning the House of Commons was carried in the affirmative, without a division. The following letter, received yesterday from the gediterrosean, is interesting : " MALTA, Sir!. " The gitsolail Admiral has lately been here ou al mis p% slow, and the object of his adssion is supposed to be, to mom. Mails combitioddiversiun in Italy, where there cannot be at ' lopm!itny strong force. It appears by au article from Seenlin, I dler a Raisins limy was marching through. Servia westward for sbe abases of the Adriatic. The whole of the croons, native and Sergi" occupying Sicily, being now at the disposal of Lord W. illsWriwcs, it is expected that a detachment from hence will, In geseessecion with the Russians, undertake some expedition." 111 accounts which have reached us from Buenos Apes, to the Ist of September, we are happy, for the - lake of humanity, to leant, that there is again a hope of peace being restored between the contending parties in South America. The following is an extract of a letter from Buenos Ayres on the subject, dated the Slst of August : 44 The Junta of this place have sent. down an officer with dispatches for the Governor-General of Monte Video, with proposals to send Deputies to treat for a cessation of hostilities ; the reason assigned for this, is in consequence of the success over the nation of In dians, called Cochobambinos, by GuyoNwaies army, which have suddenly reappeared in that quarter, and have taken possession of Polosi and Juyjui. This, with a misunderstanding which exists amongst the officers which command the army approaching to re sume the siege of Monte Video, may lead to a friendly understanding between the two parties." The following Bulletin, issued by Ministers yester day, we inserted in a Second Edition—we repeat it for the gratification of such of our Readers as had it not in the early printed papers 44 A dispatch hits been received from Lord CATH. CART. dated St. Petersburgh, Ist November. He in closes the Bulletins of the action of the 18th ultimo, also Reports from General Srairttu. and Count WITTOUNTETN. The former, in his pursuit of the enemy, had taken 40 waggons, 22 standards of the Bavarian regiments, 800 ducats in the military chest, Seven officers, the Commissary-General, with all his oeftivies, and made 100 prisoners, on the 25th Oc tober ; and, o n th e 26 t h, h e too k from the enemy seven pieces of artillery, and made s.ven officers and 150 men prisoners, besides those taken in various rem otion of the rearguard, wherein the enemy had much suffered. " Count WITTORNSTRIN reports, that by the ope. ration Of General Brinenitu. the Bavarian corps was separated from that of Sr. CYR. He himself, in the remit, had taken 800 prisoners and ten tumbrils j ell, ond SOO horses killed en the road, and some mom, the cannon belonging to which, he supposes, ms's t _bletied in the marshes. The enemy had retired to &epelle. He adds that Sr. CYR'S corps is so weekend, that it is impossible for Bine to attack again be k considerably reinforced.—General STRIN. inn dates from Koublieke, on the 26th October— 'end Count WITTOMTRIN. on the same day, from .Ouchatchi. " Lord CATHCART Hates, that nothing of momenthad been reported from the Russian Gland Army. The French were in the utmost want of forage and .Prciaision, and the Russians ware greatly superior in the number and vigour of their cavalry. " The French kit several thousand sick in Mos 'enw) in the most miserable SIAM" Letters received from the French coast mention that the army under Bonaparte was retreating in a solid mass, and that the Cossacks did not begin to follow his rear until three days after he had commenced his retreat. We have too good an opinion of these intre pid soldiers to suppose that they would allow a sin kle hour to elapse after an opportunity had been af forded them of attacking the enemy, without making them feel their vengeance. We know from the 2.5 th Bulletin, that they had actually penetrated into the enemy's camp, such was their ardour for combat, and that though repulsed by the enemy, according to his own statement, they brought off 100 waggons, and as many prisoners. General Kutusoff's account of the same affair stated the number of the enemy taken prisoners at 2000, but we merely allude to the French statement to shew that the Cossacks are not those des picable enemies which the letters from the French COILSt and the foreign Journalists would have us to be lieve. The same letters state, what is much more Iflorthy of credit, that the reverses of the French arms in Russia, had produced a general depression, that the war in this North was most unpopular, and that it great anxiety was felt to • know the result of Bona parte's retreat, not unmixed, we may be assured, with earnest prayers, that it may prove destructive to the Tyrant. A private letter from Konigsberg, dated the 24th vit. assures us, that intelligence had been received there, which was considered as authentic, and which stated the arrival of a Russian corps at Bialystock, on the 16th ult. the same day on which the French Authorities at Warsaw were thrown into such alarm. It was added, that this corps proceeded on its way Grodno, which it reached on the 18th, and frost thence continued its march for Kowno, with intent to take or destrdy the immense magazines of gm. visions and ammunition, which the French have col lected there - andon which, as appears from the 26th Bulletin, th ey mainly rely for support. These re ports may, perhaps, be exaggerated t bat if an expe dition of the kind described itas' been really under taken, we are not aware of any French troops being so situated as to interpose against its complete execu tion ; and undoubtedly the blow would be one of the moat severe which could be Stitiltk o rSt BONA.

The helm was immediately put down, and she came round, and stood towards the land ;--• the privateer followed for some time, and fired her small arms, which did no material damage, and the Fanner fortunately esca ped. It Is supposed thit theyrivateer was afraid to fire her great guns, for fear of alarming a fleet of colliers that were to the lee ward, and standing to the Northward. The privateer's deck was crowded with men. 3he Farmer gave Intelligence of this ma rauder to the first collier she fell in with, who prepared for de fence. The Farmer ia now at North Berwick.

About 25 sick prisoners of waeitize landed on the morning of Friday last at Leidri'rrom the Latona transport, and conveyed in carts to the Infirmary.— , They appeared to be in a very languid and debilita ted state, which excited commiseration 'from the by standen. Some of them bad no other covering than a blanket to defend them from the cold. Every at tention was paid to them, of which their nriortunate situation would admit. ,Orders have been received at Plymouth to send an alphabetical list to the Transport Board of all the Frenchmen in captivity in that quarter, preparatory, it is said, to its being transmitted to Paris.

The following miens were fhb Astimeoght up for judgment: • Daniel Lovell, irroptietor of the itttierntan newspa per, for a libel on the Commissioners for the Trans port Service. The libel imputed to the Commis sioners of Transports, that they and their vents were 'guilty of peel:stations in the management of the funds allowed for the maintenance of French prisonets, by • mulcting them of their allowance, and putting the : savings in their own pockets. The defendant, in miti gation, put in a long affidavit, in which he stated that he was in prison at,the time of publication of the libel, and that it was inserted without his privity or knowledge. Mr. BROUGHAM, on behalf of the defen dant, addressed the Court, and argued, that the libel was harmless, from its extreme fay and improbabi lity. The Solactroa-Lenzaat. having replied, the Court sentenced the defendant to pay a fine to the King of £5OO ; to be imprisoned in the Gaol of 7Tewgate 18 months.; to be computed from the ex piration of his present term of imprisonment, (he being at present suffering under a sentence of the Court); _ at the end of that t i me to fi n d s ecurity for his good 1 behaviour for three years--himself in £lOOO. and two sureties in 4500 each ; and to be further impri. soned till the fine is paid, and the security given. Kraal! Hall, convicted at the Assizes of the County of Kent, held at Maidstone, of having un, lawfully assisted three French Prisoners in their escape from this country, by furnishing them with a boat at Folkstone, in which they were afterwards picked up by one of hls Majesty's cruizers, Was sen tenced to pay a fine of F5O to the King, and to be im prisoned for two years in the gaol of Maidstone. lidward 011iatt, charged with a similar offence, in having lent a gig to Commodore Poluci and Colonel Manville; who were on their parole at Ashburton, in order to convey them to Uttoxeter, in their way to wards an out-port, was also brought up for judg ment; but as it appeared, from the affidavit of a Sur—. geon, that he Was afflicted with a disorder, which, in all human probability, would terminate his life in a very short time, the Solicitor-General humanely agreed to suffer him to go at large, upon his own re cognizance, to come up when called upon. Martin Pope and Mary Roche, the former an excise man, and the latter a victualler at the Hot-wells at ' Clifton, were brought up to receive judgment for conspiring to defraud the Revenue, by accounting to the Excise fOr less beer than was actually brewed.. The former was sentenced to fifteen months, and the latter to six months, imprisonment in die gaol of the City of Bristol. Mary Moore WAS adjudged to be imprisoned one month in the goal of Norwich, for assaulting and ob structing Robert Halt, in the execution of his duty ; that is, in endeavouring to seize a cart and horse, in which there were some smuggled goods. • David Pothwitie Was likewise adjuged to be impri. soned nine months in the gaol of Berwick-upon- Tweed, for assaulting and severely beating John Johnson, a Revenue offfcer, whit he was attempting to seize two anchors of gift, near the town of Berwick. The prisoner is a fisherman, and was accompanied• by four other men. His conduct was particularly reprehensible. He hall already been confined sax months in the goal of Newcastle. In consequence of the lateness of the hour, the So. uctroa-GENERAL, at the desire of the. Court, declined calling for any other judgments, intimating that he should address their Lordships on the same subject on,. Monday next.
